A Smile spread across Hermione Granger's face as she stepped through the wall between platforms 9 and 10 at Kings Cross. She was excited to see the large red train on the other side waiting to take her and the other young witches and wizards off to Hogwarts. She loved leaving the muggle world behind and going away to learn magic at Hogwarts. This year might prove to be her best year yet!
She scanned the crowds for a familiar shock of red hair. Finally when she spotted it, she ran over to greet her boyfriend Ron Weasley. Ron pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly. "I missed you Mione." he whispered into her ear. Hermione knew exactly how he felt. For years she and Ron had been good friends, but over the end of 5th year they had grown closer. Over the summer they had been nearly inseparable till her parents had taken her on a trip to Paris for two weeks. She had missed Ron tremendously during those last couple weeks. She was delighted to hear he had missed her just as much.
Mrs. Weasley hurried them onto the train and they quickly set out to find a compartment. They soon found their friends Harry, Luna, and Neville in one of the compartments. They greeted them all with warm hugs, left their trunks, and set off to join the other prefects at the front of the train. After an hour of prefect duty they were free to return to their compartment. There they found Harry and Neville deep in a Quidditch discussion. Luna seemed oblivious to their jovial argument as she sat engrossed in the latest issue of the Quibbler. Luna looked up at them as they sat down across from her in the seats next to Harry. "I see love is in the air." she said, stating the obvious.
Suddenly Draco Malfoy popped his head in the compartment. He smirked viciously at the group and spoke out so everyone could hear. "Look, Weasley's got himself a mud blood girlfriend! Your blood traitor parents must be so proud!" Harry was the first to draw his wand and his silencio spell put an end to the tall blonde boy's taunting. Outraged, Draco and his cronies left to try to undo the spell. The whole compartment burst out laughing at Malfoy's expense. Hermione thanked Harry for coming to her aid. She sat back contently, Ron's arm around her shoulder, surrounded by her dear friends. Soon the train pulled up at Hogsmeade station. She and Ron left to go help the first year students unload off the train.
Ron and Hermione rejoined Harry in the great hall. The feast was already beginning and the boys were ravenous as usual. Hermione also helped herself to generous portions since her nerves had kept her from eating all day. After a brief speech by Professor Dumbledore, she got up to help the first year students find their way to the dorms. In the Gryffindor common room, she and Ron shared an intimate goodnight kiss. Harry, waiting for Ron seemed a bit embarrassed by this display of affection between his two best friends. Finally, they broke their embrace. Hermione gave Harry a quick hug before ascending the staircase leading to the girls dorms. After changing into her nightgown, Hermione said goodnight to her roommates Lavender and Parvati, and it wasn't long before sleep came to claim her.
The first couple of months of school flew by quickly. Their schedules were busy with the newt workloads. Hermione herself was especially busy with her two extra classes Ancient Runes and Arithmancy. This gave Harry and Ron more free time than her, but much of it was filled up with Quidditch practice. Ron as Keeper and Harry as both Seeker and Captain of the Gryffindor team were busy putting in many extra hours perfecting their game. Hermione spent some of her free time out at the pitch watching the boys. She was annoyed that there were always many other girls hanging out at the pitch. Ron had tried vainly to make her feel better by explaining that they were only there for Harry. This surprisingly didn't make Hermione feel any better about the simpering giggling crowds.
Hermione surmised that her dislike for Harry's newfound fans was only because she felt her best friend could do way better than those air headed bimbos. She and Ron were very happy together and she only wished for Harry to have the same. She was absolutely sure that she only had sisterly feelings towards Harry no matter how handsome he'd gotten over the summer. She just couldn't see him with the likes of Lavender Brown or Romilda Vane. Ron however felt Harry needed somebody in his life after his break up with cho Chang last school year. Harry was still nursing some serious wounds after she'd so coldly broken things off with him.
Hermione and Ron were both worried about Harry. Lately he'd taken to isolating himself from them at times. They both came to the conclusion that their relationship made him uncomfortable. They thought jealousy over their happiness was what was bothering him, although it was perfectly understandable under the circumstances. Harry was glad that neither Ron or Hermione knew the real reason for his avoidance of them. Yes, Harry was jealous, but not over them as a couple. No, lately an ugly green monster had been roaring in Harry's chest and that monster was aimed at Ron. Lately, Harry's thought and feelings towards Hermione were anything but platonic. Over the summer Hermione Granger had blossomed into a beautiful young woman and her best friend had taken notice. In fact lately, Harry's dreams were filled with want and desire for his best friends girl….
