Prologue
Harry Potter looked at her as if she were an alien. She was speaking and yet he did not seem to understand her words. "Hermione all I wanted to know was if you wanted to spend Christmas with my family, mum can't wait to meet you."
Hermione had a hard time believing that. For the past few months all she had heard from her fellow students were horror stories about Mr. and Mrs. Potter. Her first encounter with Mrs. Potter had been less than pleasurable. In fact the experience terrified her.
"I don't know Harry…"
"Come on Hermione. What better way to learn about the magical world than to spend the holidays with them learning firsthand what happens in our homes?"
He did have a point. She knew from her conversations with the purebloods she spent time with that the wizard traditions were vastly different from her muggle ones. Part of her was dying to; knowing she would never get an offer such as this again. The other part of her was very reluctant to venture into the unknown.
"Well…"
"Come on Hermione you know this would be a learning experience," Harry goaded her. He struck her right where it mattered, knowledge.
"Oh alright I will come."
"Excellent, I will let mother know."
And that was how Hermione Jean Granger ended up sending her Christmas holidays at Potter manner. She just hoped his mother Bellatrix Potter was a lot nicer than she looked.
