A/N Hi readers! Ok, for any of you who are reading this cause you like "secrets before the chamber" I'm SOOOOO sorry that I haven't been writing that. I kind of have writer's block on it but I will try to update soon. Anyway just so you know if I put ???? POV it doesn't mean they are like telling the story it just means I'm telling what they are doing. Ok, here are some other notes: Okay, I tried to do this italics thing when she is thinking but I don't think it will come up.

Disclaimer: most belongs to JK Rowling and I borrowed some ideas from the parent trap * I'm not going to put this on all chapters so read it now and don't complain (um why would you is beyond me)

Hermione's POV

Hermione Granger sighed as she walked through the barrier between platform 9 and 10 to meet up with her parents. The 6th year was over and had left it so badly with Ron. Why did I dump him? She thought to herself. Because he couldn't cope that you were better than him. But I'm not any better than him. Why are thinking this? He was a horrible keeper. This battle had been going on in her head for about two weeks.

"Oh, hunny" her mom greeted her "We've missed you so much." Her dad nodded in agreement.

"I missed you too," she said as she hugged her parents. Hermione walked with her parents across the parking and sat down in their SUV. Her mum sat in the front seat and turned around as her father pulled out of the parking lot.

"Mione, we have a surprise for you." she said

"What is it?" hermione asked cautiously hopeing it wasn't braces.

"Well, your father and I decided that you shouldn't be cooped up in the house all summer so we decided to send you to a wizarding summer camp."

"What? Why?"

"Don't you want to go?"

"Yeah" she answered but what if Ron is there?

"Great! You'll stay with us for week then leave for Italy."

"Italy!" she exclaimed changing her thoughts completely. Who cares if Ron is there? This is gonna be in Italy. I'll love it there! Going will be a dream come true.

"So, what is the camp going to be like?"

"Well, I'm not really sure because. well. I'm not a witch"

"I mean do you think there will be any other Hogwarts students will be there?"

"Maybe a few but most of the kids will be from the Italian Academy of Witchcraft and Wizardry" (a/n:Okay, I know it's a sucky name but I couldn't think of a good italian school name)
Yes! There isn't much chance that Ron will be there!!!!!

The week flew by quickly because Hermione had spent the whole time doing her holiday homework. She couldn't believe how quickly the day of her departcher had come. That morning Hermione woke up extra early so she could pack. She went down stairs to get a bowl of cornpuffs for her breakfast. As she was opening the box of cereal, she noticed a small, dark scarlet, leather-bond book. She picked it up and flipped to the first page. There was a note inscribed in purple ink.

Dear 'Mione, I hope you have a wonderful time in Italy, dear. Unfortunately, your father and I have an early morning meeting me must attend to. So we can't bid our farewells at the bus stop. Remember take the Knight Bus to Diagon Alley. A staff member will be meeting the Hogwarts students there. Anyway, this little book is for you to write down all your ideas and emotions. I hope you enjoy your time at camp. Please write us if you need anything. We will be picking you up at Diagon alley on August 10th. Miss you forever! Love, Mum

Hermione looked at the note with a mixture of disappointment and excitement. She stared at it for a second then closed the book and ate her breakfast. She spent the rest of the morning packing her clothes and other things she would need. While Hermione was locking her trunk she glanced at her clock which read 9:30. Crap, If I don't leave now I'll be late!

"Where is Crookshanks?" she mumbled to herself. Crookshanks slinked up to her. "there you are. I just wanted to say goodbye" he gave her a sad tearful look "I'm sorry boy I can't take you they don't allow pets"

Hermione stroked his back and said goodbye. Now she was late so she grabbed her trunk and dragged it as fast as she could. When she reached the edge of her yard, she stuck out her right hand, and almost instantly the Knight Bus arrived. The conductor stepped out and grabbed her trunk and led her inside.

"Good morning, miss" he said while doing so "where do you need to go?"

"Diagon Alley"

"Okay, we only have one more stop before Diagon Alley so it shouldn't be too long."

"Great!" she smiled. Maybe I won't be late.

She sat down in a comfy armchair near the back. She took out her CD player and popped in her favorite CD, Justin Timberlake (both from her parents.) It seemed to only have taken a few minutes before the Knight Bus stopped in front of Diagon Alley.

Hermione stepped inside the pub and headed into Diagon Alley. It was only 10:30 and the camp staff member wouldn't arrive until 12:00. So she decided to go shopping for a birthday present for Harry. After looking for about an hour Hermione finally found the perfect gift, a book called 'Good overpowers Evil' it was a novel about a wizard fighting his evil dark nemesis. (a/n sound familiar? LOL) She paid for the book and headed to the Leaky Cauldron. She hadn't eaten since about 6 a.m. She sat a table in the corner and ordered a chicken sandwich and a butterbeer.

While Hermione was finishing the last of the of her butterbeer, a tall Mediterranean looking woman stepped out of the fire. She was wearing deep blue robes with an emblem that matched the one on Hermione's camp form. Hermione stood up and walked up to the witch.

"Hi" Hermione greeted her. "are you the camp counselor?"

"Ah yes" she answered "I'm Miss Sassanelli. Which camper are you?"

"Hermione Granger"

"Okay Hermione, we have four more to wait for."

They waited for about 5 minutes before two familiar faces appeared next to them.

"Hi" said Dennis and Colin in unison.

"Hi" said Hermione.

"Which campers are you two" said Miss Sassanelli

"Colin" he said

"and Dennis Creevey" the other said

Another minute or so passed before they heard the raving of Luna Lovegood. Hermione knew she was a nice person and ever since the 5th they had kind of been friends but Luna was still as looney as ever. She was greeted the same as the Creevey's and now all they had to was wait for the last camper to arrive. This is going to be great. I get along with everyone so far and hopefully I will get to hang out with the Hogwarts students. Hopefully I won't be stuck with non-English speakers the whole time. Hopefully..

The group waited and waited and waited. Twenty minutes later they all had finished butterbeers and were playing exploding snap. Sassi Cassi (miss sassanelli) had just beaten them for the ninth time when Hermione heard someone walk up to their table.

"I'm here" he said. Hermione turned around to see who it was. Her shoulder bumped an exhausted but unmistakable Draco Malfoy.

~*~A/N~*~ DUN DUN DUUUUUN!!!! LOL
