Chapter One: Monday Mornings

Monday morning. Hermione's favourite day of the week. She was in her room, slipping on her robes and humming to herself. She did a graceful spin into the bathroom, collected her hair in a clasp and made the finishing touches by slipping a sweet scented frangipani into the mass of curly locks. Whisking out of her dorm with Crookshanks jumping along behind her Hermione leapt happily down the stairs and bounced into the common room.

"Morning all!" Hermione said twirling about and skipping over to Harry and Ron by the fireplace.

"Mornin' 'Mione…" Ron said yawning.

"Morning," Harry said smiling up at Hermione. "And why are you so happy today?"

"Well it's Monday, the sun is shining and the birds are singing. Who wouldn't be happy?"

"Well firstly, the sun isn't shining. It's just Dean and Neville pointing a torch light in this direction. And the only bird I can hear singing is bloody pig squawking! And you seriously need to get your priorities right 'Mione. Monday morning is the WORST day of the week." Ron grumbled. Hermione and Harry laughed.

"Someone got up on the wrong side of the bed today." Hermione said in a fit of giggles at Ron's cranky mood. Ron huffed and stood up.

"Are we going to breakfast or not?" Ron said grumpily.

"Yes Sir!" Harry said in a military manor as he saluted Ron. "Lead the way Captain!" Ron stormed off towards the door and Hermione and Harry followed in giggles.

"Wait for me!" Ginny yelled running down the dorm stairs trying to tie her shoe lace and brush her hair at the same time. Harry looked at his watch.

"A little late this morning Miss Weasley?" Harry said cheekily. Ginny poked her tongue out at him and followed the trio down to breakfast.
