My first FanFiction ever! (Second try, though) Written from Hermione's point of view in first person. The story is about a marriage law. I just love these. Conversation/ talking out loud is in "", Hermione's thought are italic.
The Law
Chapter One: The Letter
Peck, Peck, Peck. I walk slowly and sleepily to my window. "Who in the world is writing me at this hour?" I turn to my clock. "It's a bloody 3 AM!" I giggle, "Ron would be proud." Peck, Peck. "Oh, alright. I'm coming!" I yell at the owl. I open my window quietly making sure it does not squeak. "Pig, what are you doing here?" Pig just squeaks in reply as I untie the letter. "There goes being quiet," I scold him. I give him some water and an owl treat, and then he starts flying around my room with too much energy for it being so early in the morning. I turn the letter over to see Ron's familiar writing. I open it,
Mione,
You have to come right away. Dad and I will be there at 8 this morning. It is very important. Very! Pack your stuff for the rest of the summer. We will explain everything as soon as we get there.
Much Love,
Ron
PS- I know you want to know what is going on, but I will tell you in person. Be patient.
"Ha," I laugh out loud, "He telling me to be patient. Who would have ever thought this day would come? Wait, when did he start signing with much love?" I can tell by the writing that it was written in a hurry. "Something must be wrong. Oh no! Harry must be hurt or maybe Ginny or Mrs. Weasley or Fred or George or someone?" I say out loud starting to get worried. I write a very quick note back.
Ron,
What's the matter? I will be ready.
Love,
Hermione
"Come here Pig." I tie the note to his leg, and open the window for him to leave. "Take this right back to Ron," and with that he is gone into the night. I look around my room for something to put my stuff in. "I guess you will have to do," I say to my Hogwarts chest.
I put a pair of tennis shoes, dressy shoes, and sandals on the bottom of my chest. I start taking jeans and shorts out of my drawers. I fold them nicely and put them in my chest. Then I go to my closet and get some shirts. And put them in my chest as well. I put two pair of pajamas and my toiletries in on top of that. I also grab Hogwart A History, and some other big books and put them on top for some light reading over the remainder of the summer. I look at the clock, "Four-thirty. Maybe I can get some sleep before they get here." I reset my alarm from eight to six-thirty, lie down in bed, and fall asleep.
BEEP, BEEP, beep. Slam, I turn off my alarm clock. I sit up in bed and rub the sleep out of my eyes. I look over to my nightstand and see Ron's letter sitting there, and start to rush about. I go to my bathroom and brush my teeth and my hair. I turn on the shower and take a hot shower to help wake me up. I wash my hair, body, and face while I am in the shower. And then I get dressed in a pair of jeans and a plain fitted t-shirt. I look at the clock, 7:30, "I have time to eat and then wait," I say calculating my time. I go down stairs to find my mom in the kitchen cooking breakfast. "Mmm, smells good. Good-morning mom."
"Good-morning sweetheart. Did you sleep well?"
"As well as I could."
"What wrong?"
"I got a letter from Ron late last night, well actually early this morning, saying they are coming to get me today."
"Why?"
"He did not tell me, and I am worried about what it might be."
My mother smiles, and says, "I am sure it is nothing bad. Otherwise he would have told you, right?"
"I guess."
"Well, come have a ham and cheese omelet." I nod and sit at the table. I eat the whole thing and drink two glasses of milk.
"I'm going to go get my chest. I will be right back." I go back to my room, brush my teeth, put my hair up in a high bun, and bring my chest downstairs. I go back into the kitchen, "Good-morning, dad."
"Good-morning, sweetie. Your mom told me Ron was coming to get you early."
"Yeah, actually he should be here soon," I say checking the clock on the microwave, eight. POP!
Well, what did you think? Good? Bad? Okay? Please tell me what you think. Or just let me know you read it. I know it took a while (well maybe not too long, but long in my opinion) for me to redo this story, but I have been very stressed and busy. So I hope you will understand. I know I did not change much with this chapter, but I did change a little. I will try very hard to update in less then a week. You have my word as a hockey player. But, I cannot make any promises because some big things have happened, so bear with me. Please review.
