It was Hermione's favorite time of the year: summer time! She was currently sitting in the compartment she shared with Harry, Ron, and Ginny. They were all talking about their summer plans as Hermione stared at the scenery as the train rolled along. They noticed her lack of response to their questions about her summer plans, and went to find their other friends. A few minutes later Hermione heard the compartment door open again. Looking up to see who it was her face immediately broke into a smile. Hermione's older brother (by 1 year) had entered the compartment. It wasn't known by many that Hermione had an older brother that went to Hogwarts or the fact that he was a Slytherin.
"Cayden!" Hermione exclaimed as the door shut behind him "What are you doing in here people will start to ask questions" she finished with a hiss.
"Relax Mina I was just coming to tell you that I would be bringing some friends with me tonight".
"And who might these friends be?" she questioned him before he walked back over to the door
"You'll see" he said with a smirk and left to return to his compartment.
Ten minutes later Harry and Ginny made their way back to their compartment to check on Hermione. The duo walked in to see Hermione with a lingering smile still on her face. "He was here wasn't he?" Harry asked with an amused tone
"Yes my dear brother was here" Hermione responded while laughing.
Harry and Ginny had known about Hermione and Cayden's relationship since the beginning of their third year and Ginny's second (it was the end of their fifth).
The train pulled into the station shortly after they came back to the compartment. Hermione was ready she was waiting at the doors to the train for them to open and be the first one off. Once they opened she jumped onto the platform and ran to where the Weasley's where standing. She quickly greeted them and said goodbye and ran off to where she and Cayden were meeting to floo home.
She started to see many families start to leave and she began to grow impatient. After ten more minutes of waiting Cayden finally met up with her and they floo home.
Once the siblings were home they greeted their parents who were packing to leave on a business trip (that's why they weren't able to pick up the kids from the station). Their parents said their goodbyes shortly after dinner and left for their trip.
Hermione then turned to Cayden and told him that she needed to go get ready and ran up the stairs to her bedroom. It was two hours later when Hermione was finally ready.
She found Cayden in the sitting room off of the foyer and told him she was leaving and in return he told her that he would be there in an hour with three guests.
It was now time for Cayden and his friends to leave. Cayden told Skyler Zabini (his best friend), Blaise Zabini (his best friend's brother), and Draco Malfoy (Blaise's best friend) that they were going to the club Fire and Ice and where to apparate.
Skyler smirked to Cayden when he realized where they were going and the shock that the younger boys were going to have upon arriving.
The four boys got to the club and followed Cayden to the front of the line to where the bouncer was. Cayden told the bouncer that they were Mina's guests and were immediately let in.
Draco and Blaise looked around and took in their surroundings and the loud music, the older boys started to search for Mina.
Draco whispered to Blaise "Who is this Mina chick that they keep mentioning?"
"I have no idea but I think we are about to find out" Blaise replied and as if on cue 'Wait A Minute' by the Pussycat Dolls started to play and the girls that had been walking around serving drinks were now doing a dance number on the bar, tables, and dj booth.
The three guests had been shocked at the performance (Cayden however was not). After the number Hermione walked over to her brother's table with a round of drinks for them.
"Mina" Cayden and Skyler exclaimed as she got closer making Draco and Blaise whip their heads around to find this mystery girl.
Once the younger boys spotted her they shouted "Granger" in sync and Blaise proceeded to ask her what she was doing there. Hermione ignored the two boys and made small talk with Cayden and Skyler.
She had been whispering into Skyler's ear while shooting looks at Blaise and Draco. Blaise then whispered to Draco "I don't think I'm going to like this"
As soon as the sentence left his mouth Hermione and pulled Skyler off is chair and was leading him to a back room.
"Oh Mina this has got to be the best plan you have ever come up with" Skyler said once they were in the room.
"The look on their faces was priceless!" she replied before she busted out laughing. Once she composed herself she decided that Skyler needed to look the part of what the younger boys think just happened.
She un-tucked his shirt and mis-buttoned his shirt, she then messed up his perfectly placed hair (he attempted to protest but failed), and she kissed his neck leaving a bright red lipstick smudge. Once she was satisfied with her work they left the room and walked back over to the table where her brother was.
After reaching the table she told Cayden to have a good time and that she would see him back at home when she got off of work.
The rest of the night was uneventful and the four Slytherins went back to Cayden's house while Hermione continued working. Two hours later Hermione was finally home and went straight to bed after telling her brother she was home.
