Hermione sat up in her bed and slowly looked out the bright window.

Oh great, she thought, snow! And today I have to travel…

She turned and threw her legs over the side of the bed. 6:30. She had just enough time to take a nice, relaxing shower before going down to the train station. The only thing that she was really excited about was finally being able to see Ron and Harry. She had missed them so much over the long winter break. She wanted to see how they looked. She had always secretly thought Harry was cute, but she wondered if he had changed.

She took her shower and got dressed. When she started downstairs, a sudden sadness took over her excited mood. She would be leaving her parents again. As everyone knew, they had always been extremely close, and she always had trouble leaving them. When she got to the bottom of the stairs, she saw her parents, sitting at the breakfast table enjoying a hot meal. After they all ate, Hermione hugged them dearly, gave them both two big kisses on the cheek, and got on the bus, who's destination was the train station. She couldn't wait to meet Ron at the station! It would be a fun train ride, and when they got to Hogwarts, she would finally get to see Harry. Of course, he hadn't gone anywhere for the winter. He couldn't imagine living with his aunt and uncle for a month! As Hermione neared the train station, her heart started beating faster and faster. She stepped out of the bus, and saw one of her best friends.

"RON!" she yelled as she ran across the station and tightly embraced her friend. "I've missed you SO much!"

As soon as they boarded the train, they didn't stop talking, except of course to eat. They had so much to talk about that the 6 hour train ride seemed to short.

When the train got to a stop, Hermione ran out of it, got her bag and hurried to the spot Harry would greet her. She had waited for 15 minutes, and was about to go in, when sheheard "Hey". She turned around and saw Harry.

"WOW" she thought...
