Hermione arrived with a pop, as she apperated to the burrow for summer break. Someone screamed, someone chocked and someone spat out their drink. Hermione looked around and realised she had arrived in the middle of the lounge room at the burrow, and there were respective weasleys and their partners all sitting around the lounge room, apparently startled by her sudden appearance. Someone was missing.

"Hey guys, where's George?" she said, watching as her friends faces changed from shocked to smiles.

"I'm here" said Fred, with a smile.

"What do you take me for Fred, you know I can tell you apart." She smiled. "So where's your other half?" she added. Then felt a tap on her leg and looked down, with a shock, george was on the floor, head between her legs looking straight up her skirt, with a smile.

"AAAHHHHH!" she yelled as she jumped away from him and clutched her skirt to her,

everyone laughed, except Hermione. "George, what on earth!" she exclaimed it.

"Hey I was here first, you're the one who popped in directly over my head" he said with a smile. Using hand gestures to show where she had infact apperated over his face. He smiled reassuringly at her. "Don't worry hermit, I closed my eyes until I tapped your leg, thought I should open them to give you a proper shock!" she relaxed slightly, but rolled her eyes and smiled.

"Whatever George, you should have taken a good look, cause your never gonna see that again" she said and the others burst out laughing, George was stunned, he just sat there as Hermione and Ginny ran up the stairs.

"Your evil!" said Ginny as they got to her room. Hermione just laughed and plopped herself on the bed she would be sleeping in for the summer, Ginny joined her. Harry and Ron came bursting in laughing and jumped on the girls.

"That was bloody brilliant mione!" said Ron as they all laughed.

"Yeah did you see his face" added Harry in between laughs, doing an impersonation.

"You know he was still like that when we left?" said Ron. Hermione looked at him in shock, she knew it was good but she didn't expect one of the Weasley twins to be rattled so easily.

The rest of the week went by in a similar fashion, George and Hermione playfully taunting each other. One night Hermione came downstairs to get a glass of water, in just her tank top and short shorts. She stood looking out the window as she drank her water slowly. She thought of Draco, her secret friend for the past three years. They had gradually become nicer to each other in their third year, when they actually had a conversation (n secret of course!) Draco told her how he had never really hated her, but if he didn't taunt her then it would get back to his father that he was being easy on a muggleborn and Harry's friend. She confided in him that day that she actually wasn't a muggleborn and that she was adopted. This little confinement in each other, sparked the start of a strong and beautiful friendship, unlike any she had had before. She adored Harry and Ron, and they were her best friends. But what she had with Draco was different, it wasn't sexual there was no attraction in anyway, which was great for both of them, it was something else. Her thoughts were interrupted when she felt the warmth of another body in close proximity. She sighed.

"I know its you George" she said simply and took another sip of her water. She heard george release the breath he was holding.

"How did you know?" he said in awe. She smiled as she turned. Neither of them moved, they were about a foot apart.

"Woman's intuition." She said with another smile. George grinned at her.

"I think we have more chance of you being a seer" he said with a cheeky grin. She grinned at him and hit him playfully on the arm.

"You're a shit" she said and he just nodded. "So what were you doing up?"

"Oh I usually wake up this time of night so when I heard someone come down the stairs, it was a chance I couldn't resist." He said in a mock evil voice. Hermione raised one perfectly shaped eyebrow at him. George surveyed her for the umpteenth time. She was gorgeous, her hair had grown lighter over the years and it was now a light chocolate brown with natural blonde streaks that just started appearing gradually. Her hair was long and smooth with loose curls through it. Her golden eyes sparked in the night sky and her bright red lips where accentuated by her now rather pale skin. Yep she was definitely beautiful.

"You wake up this time every night. What are you like set on a sex timer or something?" she asked, completely surprising George.

"WHAT?" he said loudly with a shocked look on his face.

"Shhh!" she said putting a French manicured finger on his lips and laughing quietly at his face. "I mean are you so used to waking up for a second go, that you automatically do it now?" she added. George grinned.

"Are you implying that I sleep around?" George asked incredulously.

"Oh no, I forgot, its Fred that's the ladies man isn't it?" she said quickly, putting down her glass and walking around him. He grabbed her wrist and spun her around, she looked shocked, but not completely surprised. George lowered his head as he touched her cheek. She just looked at him, this was not going to work.

"Nice try George" she said as he was mere cm from her face. He smiled.

"Bloody hell woman, your good!" he said as he stood up. She beamed at him and went back to bed.

When she woke up the next morning it was 1.15! Hermione's eyes shot open at how late she had slept. She was supposed to meet someone today! She jumped out of bed and quickly put her hair up in a clip, jumping in for a fast shower, and brushed her teeth. She dressed in baggy jeans a pink halter top that showed off her middrift, and some sneakers, before running down the stairs and into the kitchen.

"Why the bloody hell didn't you wake me?" she asked as she ran in the kitchen, not even noticing that the weasleys still remained in their pj's, and poured herself a glass of water. She put her glass down and sighed heavily, as realisation of what the weasleys were wearing dawned on her. She reached up and undid the clip in her hair, letting it fall down her back.

"Very good George" she said with her back turned as she ran her fingers through her hair. The others just smiled, finally clueing on that George had once again, done something to Hermione. "So what is everyone doing today?" she asked plopping down between Harry and Ron, laying her head sleepily on Harry's shoulder and closing her eyes. He laughed at her before replying.

"I'm not doing anything today, but I think you should get some sleep mione, you look tired." Harry said in his concerned voice. Ron lent out his hand and felt her forehead, making Hermione smile with her eyes closed. The others watched at how the boys fussed over Hermione, and how she didn't seem to mind.

"Your not getting sick are you?" asked Ron, his concern matching Harry's.

"Maybe" she said softly, it was completely possible. She wasn't exactly feeling the best the past couple of days, and the lack of sleep wasn't helping. "But I'm going to London today." She added.

"No your not!" said both Harry and Ron at the same time. Making her smile once again. Fred and George watched in amusement, at how she handled the boys.

"Yes. I am" she said simply. Staying calm.

"Mione, your sick, you cant go out!" said Ron.

"Yeah, stay here so we can take care of you" added Harry.

"Would you listen to the two of yourselves" she said with a smile as she got up from the table. "Your acting like I'm pregnant or something!" she said as she put her cup in the sink. She smiled to herself, she didn't have to turn around to see their reactions.

"Boys, take a breath, I'm not pregnant" she said reassuringly as she turned with a smile. Fred and george chuckled and Harry and Ron looked somewhat relieved. She grinned and winked at the twins. "At least. I don't think I am!" she said rubbing her stomach. "how soon is it that morning sickness starts again?" she asked. Both boys shot out of their seats and started raving things like.

"Who is he"

"Gonna kill him"

"thinks he can touch you"

but they stopped when they saw the large smile across her face. Then they smiled.

"Bloody hell Hermione, don't do that to us!" said Ron as he held his chest in relief. Ginny and the Twins burst into laughter. Hermione walked over to the table and grabbed an apple.

"Well I'm off then" she said grabbing her bag.

"Mione!" said both Ron and Harry at the same time. But she ignored them, kissed them both on the cheek and waved goodbye, the boys made a grab for her but before they could catch her, she apperated with a pop.

"Bloody hell she's quick!" said Fred. The others just nodded.
