Hermione P.O.V
Nothing turned out the way everyone thought it would. With Voldemort gone people were still scared, still hiding whether just out of habit or ongoing fear but the wizarding world was one spell away from drowning in complete chaos. So we decided to leave. Harry, Ginny, Ron and me and I know what you're thinking. No me and Ronald did not end up together. I am gay – a lesbian. I know shocker right, not many people saw that coming. But I'm not going to apologise for who I am, the people closest to my heart accept me just the way I am so if it bothers you, please fuck off. Harry and Ginny are official though, now people defiantly predicted that one; but I mean who would have guessed (and how?) that Ginny would go from some shy little girl who's jaw literally dropped and lost the ability to form words around the legendary Harry Potter to the one to capture his heart. Funny huh?
Anyway that's not what this story is about, this story is our journey. To where you may ask, well were still trying to figure that out ourselves…
"Come on! Lets go, lets go, lets go!" I called running in the general direction of the airport. We were late, again. Nothing new. I swear I should turn Harry and Ron's watches 20 minutes fast so maybe we would be on time for something for a change.
"Were coming", they hollered back in union, dragging their luggage behind them. I saw Ginny running ahead of me, literally bolting towards the airport, well I'm glad she knows where were going because though I would never admit it, I was starting to feel lost.
We burst through the sliding airport doors and bolted to the counter where a woman who was most likely around her 60s, sat slumped over her desk looking…well for a lack of a better word, shitty.
"Hello", Ginny said breathlessly "We've booked four tickets to Port Angeles" The woman just glared at us like it was us making her life hell.
"What names that under?" the lady practically growled
"Granger" I said stepping forward. The next ten minutes, and I'm not exaggerating, was spent listening to her smash the keyboard in front of her and grunting or huffing every few seconds
"Here", she said gruffly shoving the tickets in my face, motioning for us to move towards the boarding terminal
"Excuse me, have we done something to offend you?" Harry stepped forward looking aggravated
"Lets just say I'm having a bad day" she stated
"Well I would advise you to stop taking it out on customers that pay your salary. Now we haven't done anything wrong, we've booked tickets online and come to you politely to check in as required. Now I personally believe I have the right to demand to speak to the manager and get bumped up a class in my flight, possibly get you put on probation or even fired as I'm assuming this is not the first occasion in which you've been overly rude and off putting towards good wiled, polite customers who just want to catch their flight without any dramas." Harry took a deep breath and leant forward, "Now, have a nice day and try not to scare any passengers", he smiled scathingly.
MERLIN! I can't believe Harry just did that, I couldn't help it as we walked away from grump faces desk I started laughing and high fived harry. "Flight 4087 to Port Angeles is now boarding, would passengers please move towards the boarding terminal", a voice announced over the speakers
"Now that is how you speak to customers" Ron laughed as he began walking faster towards our terminal
"I can't believe were finally doing this" I squealed, as I got my ticket checked at the door of the terminal
"Well believe it girl! Were finally getting away and honestly what place could be more relaxed than somewhere called 'La Push'" Ginny laughed and made quotation marks in the air as she said La Push, she thought the name was hilarious
"I know it just screams lazy doesn't it?" Ron grinned, anywhere 'lazy' was perfect for Ron
"Oh Ronald", Ginny said, pretending to be mad but smiling all the while.
"Enough chit chat, lets get this move moving", and we hopped on the plane full of apprehension, nervousness and uncertainty but most of all; excitement.
We got off the plane only to be assaulted by rain and hail. Oh so much fun (dripping sarcasm here by the way)
"Arghhhh!" I spun instantly and caught an older looking woman who had been getting off the plane right after me
"Are you alright?" I looked at her with concern as I helped her regain her footing
"Oh thank you dear" she smiled at me and held out her hand, "I'm Sue Clearwater" she introduced herself as I shook her hand
"Hermione Granger" I smiled at the kind lady, "Come on lets get out of this rain and hail" I made a face, I hate hail with a passion
"Come on Hermione" Ron yelled over his shoulder from ahead of us
"I'll meet you inside" I shouted back, wanting to make sure Sue made it inside safely. After a few minutes of walking Sue and I reached the Airport building, shuddering as the warm air-conditioning hit our icy cold skin.
"MUM!" I heard a guy shout across the building and looked up to see a guy walking our way, towing a woman behind him. The Guy was Cute but my eyes instantly shifted to the woman. She's beautiful. Was the only thought my mind still had the ability to produce. She had olive skin, same as the boy. Curly black hair that barely touched her shoulders and eyes that were a beautiful deep brown but something weird happened; as soon as our eyes met her jaw went slack and she looked like she was about to drool…I had to hold in a laugh at the sight of her now dopey expression.
Sue must have gotten some secret message that I missed as the woman's jaw dropped because she instantly smiled, wrapped her arm around my shoulders and introduced me as if an old friend. "This is Hermione Granger, she caught me right before I fell over from the slippery grounds outside." She looked at me, still smiling and continued, "Hermione this is my son Seth and my daughter Leah".
Seth dipped his head and said hello but Leah just stared at me…and it looked like…no she couldn't be…mouthing Hermione? I don't know but this is getting weird with all the starring.
"Hermione!" Ginny called from the luggage train
"Excuse me, I should probably get back to my friends", I smiled politely and going to walk off before I heard
"No! wait!", I jumped from the urgent sound of Leah's voice as she stopped me. I turned around and looked at her questioningly. She just stared back at me as if she couldn't believe she'd just called out to me.
"Would you like to come to our town bonfire? Are you staying long? Its tomorrow night" Sue filled in the silence which had become extremely awkward
"Ummm… actually were moving here; well to La Push anyway. Like today is moving day" I said giving a small laugh
"La Push that's where we live" the Seth said grinning, "here's our number", he grabbed a piece of paper from his backpack and wrote it down before handing it to me, "call us if your able to make it", he said smiling some more. I decided I liked this kid, always smiling… unlike his sister who just…stared.
"Okay, will do. It was lovely to meet all of you; goodbye" I waved to them as I made my way back to my friends but I had a strange feeling that Leah was still watching me; and what do you know as I turned around there she was openly starring. That girl that girl was gorgeous but she was starting to give me the creeps…
"Who were they?" Harry asked me
"Oh, I helped the older lady outside and she introduced me to her kids and invited us to a bonfire in La Push" I left out the creepy starring thing. They didn't need to know about that.
"Cool, barbeque, free grub!" Ron said with a huge grin on his face. I grinned back. MAN! It's contagious.
"And it would be a good way to meet the locals" Ginny added
"And did I mention the free grub?" Ron was ecstatic
"Not once" Harry said his voice bursting with sarcasm, "So we going then I take it? When is it?"
"Tomorrow night, I don't know anything else. They said if I could make it to call them; they gave me their number" I added when Ron looked confused when I said I'd call them.
"Alright well lets grab our suitcases and head for our new home" I grinned excited. We didn't need to have the suitcases, we could've shrunken them and put them in a purse but it would have looked suspicious going anywhere let alone moving, by plane without luggage. That's also the reason the moving trucks were arriving tomorrow morning with our furniture which we had bought for the new house. If we didn't have moving trucks, people would wonder where all of our furniture had come from; I mean we couldn't just say we shrunk it and then used a feather weight charm and carried it onboard our flight could we?
So we grabbed our luggage, hailed a taxi, gave the drive the address and headed for our new home.
