"Do you think that we will see Hermione again?" Ginny asked her brother, Ron, and her boyfriend, Harry. It was September 1st of Harry and Ron's seventh year. They hadn't seen Hermione since the end of fifth year when she announced that she and her parents were moving to the States. At that point she wasn't sure whether or not she was going to Hogwarts the next year.

"I don't know, Gin, after Hermione's parents moved away to America she has been going Salem Academy for Young Witches and Wizards in Massachusetts." Harry answered.

" Have you heard from her?" Ron asked.

"Unfortunately no. But when I talked to Dumbledore a few weeks ago he said that he had heard from her and she loved school in America. They go to school 11 months out of the year with a short break for the American holiday Thanksgiving, and a break for Christmas and the New Year." Harry told them.

"Wow, I wonder if she misses us?" Ginny asked with a frown.

Harry put his arm around his girlfriend to comfort her. "Of course she does."

-----In America-----

"Guys stop it, that tickles." Laughed a pretty girl with long curly (non frizzy) chestnut brown hair. She was skinny, and when standing stood about 5'5". She was English, though she had picked up a lot of New England slang. She was currently pinned down on the ground with two guys holding her down and one tickling her.

"We know it does, chica, that's why we do it." Said the one holding her arms. He had short spiky dirty blonde hair and ocean blue eyes. He was thin and muscular, though not beefy. He was also about 6'3" and had a smile that would make any girl fall at his feet. He was Nick

The guy holding her legs looked almost exactly like the first one except he had green eyes, and his name was Chris. You see these two are twins, not copycats. Though he also wasn't as muscular as his brother, still good looking though.

The last and final guy was doing the fun job he got to tickle her. He was about 6'2, brown hair brown eyes he is Alex. He was the sweet one of the group. The twins were the eye candy and he was the "friend" though sometimes that sucked.

"You think she suffered enough?" Alex smirked at his friends, still tickling the girl.

"YES!" laughed the girl. She was twisting around, trying to wiggle herself out of the twin's grip. Though in her efforts she seemed to have made it so her shirt uncovered her stomach, the boys didn't seem to mind though.

"I don't know." Said Chris, " I am quite liking the view." He said cocking his head to the side.

"Christopher! Don't you dare look up my shirt!" she scolded.

He laughed but at the same time muttered "Too late," making the other guys laugh.

"Miss Granger." Said an older woman's voice.

17-year-old Hermione Granger stopped thrashing around and looked up. There stood the headmistress of Salem Academy, in all her 250 pound, purple robed, red haired glory. The boys immediately let her go, she stood and fixed her clothes and hair.

"Headmistress Donnahey, can I help you?" she asked in her, 'I'm-a-suck-up voice'. She didn't use it very often around here because all of the teachers were so laid back, except for the Headmistress that is.

"Miss Granger there is a Floo for you, from an Albus Dumbledore." The headmistress cocked an eyebrow.

"Why would he want to Floo me?" She asked out loud, though mostly speaking to herself.

" I don't know, nor do I care, now come with me." The headmistress turned and walked in the direction of her office.

Hermione turned to her friends, who looked kind of confused. " I will tell you later." She said and then ran off after the Headmistress.

" Who is Albus Dumbledore?" Asked Nick.

Alex shrugged. " Do you think it has anything to do with her old school?"

"You mean the one she never talks about?" Chris asked.

"The one and only. Ever wonder why she doesn't ever talk about that school?" inquired Alex.

"Sometimes. But then look at her, she is so happy her, and I for one am happy she is here." Nick said.

"AMEN BROTHER!" exclaimed Chris.

The other two boys laughed, and made their way towards the cafeteria.

"Wait up!" Chris yelled, running after the two.


"Miss Granger, have you decided whether or not you want to come back to school here?" asked Dumbledore. HE head was currently floating in the midst of green flames in the headmistress' office.

Hermione thought for a moment. " I don't know, Professor. I mean I'm happy here. I have got a whole group of friend, my classes are fun, and I love it here. The campus here is absolutely beautiful. I do miss Harry, and Ron, oh, and Ginny." She sighed. " I don't know what to do."

"Well, Miss Granger, what if I told you that your three best friends can come with you?" He asked, eyes twinkling.

Hermione's eyes lit up. "Are you serious?"

"Yes, very, if you would like to go speak with them and get back to me with the answer that would be splendid. And in the mean time I will owl their parents for permission. Good day." And with a POP his head was gone.

"Well Miss Granger," Started the Headmistress, "you should probably go talk to your friends."

Hermione was then ushered out of the office, where she proceeded to run to the one place she new the boys would be….the cafeteria.
