The City of Love
Chapter 1
The Announcement
The moonlit dorm room was blurred out of vision as the red curtains that were crammed in corners of the bed were rudely thrust from their secure location, blocking out the blinding light from the now brightly lit dorm room as girls began to get up. A loud groan could be heard from behind the now shut curtains as they began to ruffle open and a girl with frizzy hair began to poke her head out of the small gap between the once connected fabrics.
"Argh! What time is it?" Groaned the seventeen year old brown eyed girl, who was desperately clinging to the dream world she was in only moments ago.
"It's 4:15 Hermione" Parvati Patil stated as she slowly got out of her bed which was across from tired girl, the only one in her bed now as everyone else began to get ready.
"Arghhhh!" another groan was heard from the closed curtains. Suddenly there was a ruffle of red fabric coming from the only occupied bed. Moments later Hermione Granger opened her curtains and walked straight over to her trunk that was sitting at the end of her bed, it was closed and packed ready for the trip that all the seventh years would be leaving on in a matter of hours. On top of her locked trunk were her neatly folded clothes that she would be wearing for the remainder of the day.
Hermione took her outfit and rushed into the bathroom which was empty, she wanted to get in and out of the bathroom as fast as she can since it was empty now and she wasn't sure how long it was going to be like that. Hermione was in the bathroom for six minutes before she came out wearing a white tee shirt with an orange and black stripped jacket over it, she was also wearing short shorts with black tights underneath. She walked over to her bed and began to put on her knee high black converse.
As Hermione finished tying her shoes she looked at her bed side table where a clock sat nicely ticking the minutes away. The little clock read 4:30 and Hermione was rather impressed with herself for getting ready so fast, she walked over to her mirror and checked her outfit was perfect, she stepped closer to the mirror and eyed her clear completion. Her big hazel eyes gleamed with delight as she looked at her once frizzy chocolate brown hair which was now flowing in beach waves down her back.
The rest of her dorm members were running around furiously doing their last minute packing that Hermione had stayed up late last night doing. Hermione calmly walked back to her trunk with an amused smile on her face as she watched Lavender run around like a chicken with its head cut off. Hermione never really liked Lavender, and hated her more when she started dating Ron, but now that Hermione and Ron had broken up she just hated Lavender because she was plain annoying.
Once Hermione got to her trunk, after being rammed into by a rushing Lavender, she moved her trunk to the dorm door. When she finally managed to drag it over to the door there were already two trunks sitting by the door waiting to be taken down to the Common Room where it will soon be accompanied by many other trunks.
Since Hermione was already packed she decided to meet Harry and Ron down stairs. When she got down to the common room however she didn't see anyone so she went back up into her dorm and got her wand out of her pocket and levitated her trunk down to the common room where the rest of the trunks from the other seventh year who were probably in the Great Hall awaiting the announcement from Dumbledore telling the seventh years that it was time to go.
When Hermione placed her trunk safely on the ground in the Gryffindor Common Room she started to make her way to the Great Hall until she hear her name being called.
"Granger" She remembered that voice, the voice that had tormented her for years.
"What do you want you Malfoy?" she snapped annoyed, not in the mood to talk to the ferret.
"What's your problem Granger?" Draco asked, walking up to Hermione.
"A twitchy little ferret won't leave me alone for five minutes" she replied, putting a hand on her hip.
"Oh, someone's in a bad mood aren't they? What happened? Did Potty and Weaselbee forget their little book worm?" Draco asked, a smirk playing at his lips.
"Just leave me alone ferret" Hermione said, getting more irritated by the minute as she walked away from the smirking Draco and into the Great Hall. She smiled calmly when she saw Harry and Ron at the Gryffindor Table saving her a seat.
"Hey Hermione" Harry and Ron said, in between eating.
"Hey Guys" Hermione greeted them as she began to pile her plate with food; she needed her energy if she was going to be on a plane for most of the day.
"So, are you guys ready for today? I'm so excited" Hermione said excitedly as she took a bit out of a piece of toast.
"Yeah, it should be fun" Ron said, you could hear how uninterested he was in the new topic of conversation.
"I can tell your excited Ronald" Hermione said sarcastically, giving up on the conversation.
"Oh Hermione, it's going to be splendid!" Ron said in a girlish voice, grabbing his cup and putting his pinkie up to act posh as Harry and Hermione burst into laughter. For the next twenty minutes Harry, Ron and Hermione were having fun joking around until the booming voice of Albus Dumbledore interrupted them and made the rest of the Great Hall go silent, even the Slytherins were paying attention to the Headmaster.
"Good Morning students, today is a special day for a certain year, now as you all know, the seventh years in each house will get the pleasure of spending two weeks in the luxurious ….
