THINGS CHANGE
Hermione sits at her desk, reading a book, "Wizarding Animal Habits". Interesting, interesting, interseing. This book is fasinating. So this is how they breed. Amazing, Hermione thought to herself. She was so into the oh so "cool" book that she didn't notice her mother calling from down the stares for her to grab her trunk and get ready to leave.
"Hermione." Her mom called, then yelled," Hermione dear? HERMIONE!" Hermionwe unglued her eyes for a moment just to yell," YES?"
"Sweetie, can you stop reading for just a minute and put your trunk and bags in the car. Don't forget the cat. Oh, and the owl. Also the wand, soap, shampoo, condition..." her vioce trailed off down to the basement. Hermione layed down her book and took out a bag. She looked around the room. No accually selves. Book selves to be exact. Which book sould I take to Hogwards this year. I want to take all of them but I can't. Things wont take long, just narrow it down to five book, Hermione, five. She walked around and around the room. She finally, after an hour, picked "The New Generations of Plants and Animals", "All About Our Solar System, "Outdoors? What Fun!", "Germ Multplication", and "The Thing About Our Skeleton is...", and packed them all away in her backpack. Suitcase in hand, bag on shoulder, Hermione walked down the stairs to the front door and out to the car.
"Here Dad," She handed her dad her bag and case to put in the back trunk. Her mom came out and got in the front passinger seat and her dad beside her mom. The car went down the drive way and 2 seconds of silence later her mom and dad practicly sang in harmony, " Did you forget anything, the parchment, ink..."
"coat, gloves..."
"scarf, cloak..." After about three rounds of "Did-You-Forget-This," Hermione just toned out on them and wandered in the maze of thoughts she had. I can't wait to see Harry, Ginny, Ron! I want to tell them about all the great new books I got!...and on and on.
THIRTY MINUTES LATER
I wander how old Dumboldor is this year...
"Here we are! Now Hermione, get the pully. John, the lugage." Her mom ordered. Hermione did just that without another word. When Hermione pushed her pully to platform-nine and three-quarters, she said good bye to her parents and found an empty compartment on the Hogwards Express. Ron and Harry steped in after a while and sat down. Nothing was said for a long moment. No until, accidentily a blond hair, always-will-be jerk, came knocking at the peacful compartiment door. Hermione knew who it was by looking at the shinney yellow hair that sparked through the glass, slid door before even opening it. She waited a minute to make up an insaltment.
She slid the door open while saying, "Yes, roomsurvice? I would like three packes of Malfoy to go." Draco rolled his eyes, but after, had on his signiture smerk.
" Making up jokes are we this year. Finally all grown and matured." He said and echoed laughed came from behind: Crabe, Goyle and Pansy.
" She asked for a Malfoy to go. Now go." Ron defended. Harry got up and slamed the compartment door in the not welcome people's faces. He smiled
"That's how you get rid of unwanted diseases." Ginny came in and sat beside Ron. Fred and George then came in after. They talked and talked for the whole ride. No moment of silence at all, not even to take a breath. Then the convesation switched to all the years of Malfoy-Torture.
"Remeber the punch back in the third year. I think he could still feel that." Harry said. Ron laughed.
"I still think that was a great one. Hermione you should do that again sometime." Hermione smiled.
"I wish I could have seen that." Ginny added on. "I want to see a red mark on his ghostly, white skin. He has really nice eyes. Have you seen him shirtless before. Nice abes let me tell you." Ginny went on and on on how great and attractive Malfoy is.
"Ya thoes are nice...umhum, really great...that right..." Hermione complimented on with Ginny. Why am i agreeing? I don't even like him. I can't beliebe after all these years I never noticed these little details Hermione thought to herself. All the guys kept sighing and rolling their eyes with sounds of disgust in their voices.
" Hold up there, Gin. Getting a little personal. Not cool." Fred and George said in unisen. Ginny hated being interupted, it make her feel like she's been talking all day, which she in a way was. Ron looked like he was going to puke and Harry looked like a big green jealousy monster was behind his back.
"Since when did you, Hermione like Malfoy?" George asked with ceriosity. Hermione looked like she had just been acused of robing a bank. She put to hands up and said in an innocent voice,
"I swear I never did. I mean did you hea all the things Ginny discribed? I mean for as long as I've known him, I never noticed those details.
"I was trying to rip out my ears" Harry said in frustration.
"Ginny has gon coco-bananas. She's been talking about Prince McMalfoy Charming in her sleep." Fred teased. Ginny frowned at him and crossed her armes.
"Why do you care?" George asked. Ron leaning forword a little.
"I don't." Hermione gulped, leaning backward a tiny bit.
"Good, you better not." Ron gave her a werid look and turned to the next conversation about Snape and McGongall having an affare.
Hermione sat in her bench, wondering about all the other little things that Ginny didn't mention until the train reached Hogwards.
IN THE GREAT HALL
Dumboldor gave his speech to the first years and the Try-Wizard-Cup-Torniment challengers. Ginny, Hermione, Ron, Harry, Fred and George sat together in the Griffindor table and dug into their freshly backed chicken and mashed potatoes and salid. Hermione took a big swallow of her pumpkin juice and almost spat it in Fred's face when she saw Victor Krum walking down the aisle. They haven't stayed in touch all summer, Hermione was surprised he accually smiled at her. She wiped a drip of juice of her chin and smiled and waved back. Draco Malfoy was sitting at the Slytherine table making jokes on whatever came to mind. Hermione and his eyes met for a second, just a second and the connection broke when Victor came to say greetings to his fellow Griffondors. He put a hand on Hermione's shoulder and forced her to turn to him. There was a girl behind him. A beautiful girl, someone even Draco Malf-Droll would, well droll over like he is doing now.
"Hermione"Krum knodded at her and every one of her friends."I'd like you to meet Olivia, my girlfriend." Hermione couldn't believe this was happening, after all they have been through together last year, now he has another girl. What a carless hearted freak!
Last summer Victor came and visited Hermione after he asked her out the week before he came. He slid through her window every night just to say how much he cared and loved her. Then came baby Emma and it was all over for their relationship. Victor helped with the adoption agency and the daddy work but now he just left her in the dark like nothing had happened. Hermione gave Ginny a looked that said ,"Oh my God!" and she gave a looked that replied, "I know."
"Hello, I'm Hermione Granger, nice to meet you Oil-liv-vi-" She couldn't finish her sentence because she felt like she would barf if she said another slyabole. She looked green in the face. Olivia looked like she was going to put her delicit, thin figers around Hermione's rough throught. Victor was looking weridly amused of this. He remebered how he broke it off with Hermione, Miss Ex-girlfriend of his right after they had the baby adopted. He was a evil man who cared for no one but himself. The Griffondors looked worriedly at Hermione's pale complection.
I can't take all these people staring at me. I gotta get out of this tight space. I can't be watched like this, I really can't. She stood up to leave but then, God I think I'm ganna puke! And splash went all her digested food all over Victor's careless, musculer body. And off went Hermione down the asile, leaving Krum's digused face behind.
She had no idea where her feet was taking her. They were walking down a stone path that lead to the school fields. Anywhere was better than in that hell for Hermione Granger.
