The New Improved Hermione.
Hermione walked towards the Hogwarts express, she looked at her reflection in the brass on the side of the carrages, she looked so different. Last year she was all big hair, big teeth and big clothes. Walking towards the door, she took a deep breath and went through, she was scared of Harry and Ron's reaction to how she looked (and the fact that she hadn't really had time to talk to them all summer, she even had to turn down two weeks at the Weasley's a very hard thing to do). Her summer was indeed eventful, she had changed in attitude as well as looks. She glanced into the carriges she past. She fineally found Harry and Ron huddled round the sweet trolley. '6th years and they still act this way!' she thought to her self.
Ron turned around after he was tapped on the shoulder, "Hermione! Hel- WOW!" he looked her up and down, "You look. Different" he was thinking of something to say, "Harry! Look Hermione!" Harry looked better than the end of last year,
"What? Oh hiya! Wait a minute, you look different" he also looked her up and down, "What did you do this summer?"
"Oh, this and that." Hermione could no way tell them the real reason,
"so we gonna sit down, catch up!"
"Okay, Hermione?"
"Yeah?"
"When did your wordrobe consist of strappy tops and combat trousers?"
"When I found out that I was sixteen and could buy my own clothes"
"Oh, well it looks great" Ron answered figiting
"Ron, is it bothering you?"
"No! No! I just thought you would of worn something a little less manly"
"MANLY!" Hermione stood up and waved her fist in Ron's face "Ron, I have had the summer in hell literally, I do not need this now especially from you!"
Storming out of the compartment she decided to walk around the train in search for Ginny, but she bumped into a different familiar face.
"Malfoy, get out of my way!" she snapped, he didn't move.
"Love the look Hermione really arouses me" he said in a smooth but intimidating tone.
Hermione was shocked that she punched him, with extreme force. Malfoy was in so much pain it was like someone had hit him in the nose with a park bench, he fell to the floor. "YOU IDIOT! I HAVE TO HAVE MY FAMILY PORTRAIT DONE NEXT WEEK!"
"should of thought of that before you annoyed me!" she walked off, feeling better that she had let off some steam. She found Ginny's conpartment and they had a good old chat about how Ginny admitted she still fancied Harry deep down, even if she was dating someone.
"So Hermione what have you been up to?"
"Nothing much" she said looking down she so wanted to tell her friends, but she couldn't she can't trust them, she can't trust any of them.
"Just the usual, hanging out"
"How come you didn't stay with us?" Ginny stared at her hoping for an answer,
"Look Ginny I've got to go, I'll catch up later,K?"
"alright, hey!" Hermione turned round, "Did you hear who the new DADA teacher is?"
"no, did you?"
"His name is Professor Harris, apparently he's a muggle but married a Witch, who died and he learned magic and got the job!"
"The Bastard!" she said it to quickly to realise what she said, the girls in the conpartment just stared at her.
"Got to go" talk later.
