1Hi its me! Well this is an idea I've had for about a month now. The parings in the beginning are H/H and in the end (after much confusion) R/H, and H/G. (Some how I will make it that way)
(Evil: hi again you better review her story its really good w/ the thing and the thing but I wont ruin the story. Haha ok I'll let u get on w/ the story. Bfn((bye for now)))
Summery: Hermione Granger, comes home late on the day of her moms birthday. To see... I'll let you find out. Then she goes to harry's house because (incidentally) he lives not but an hour and 57mins away. How she knows this I don't know. Anyway while she's living with harry ,not only does she have to act like a muggle, but she starts to...well lets just say get confused or the wrong picture, or who knows what she thought, but the only quested is, is it really the wrong idea? If you read you'll know.
Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter. And actually (I hope I don't sound stupid) I've never really understood what the disclaimer is about, cuss, you see some people think that if you own the book (or at least that's what it sounds like.) Oh, never mind... I have all of the books, does that mean that I own it? (that doesn't really matter) oh well on with the fanfic before I say anything else. Hehe :)

Unexpected Surprises Chapter 1: Unbelievable
Hermione stared out the windshield of her lime-green bug, convertible. (It was a birthday present last year, when she came home from school, sweet 16 'ya know?) She tapped the steering wheel impatiently. The god-forsaken light, curs it, had been stuck on red for ten minuets. It was soo annoying! And by the reflection of the raindrops on the windshield, she could almost say that it was green, but no she could tell that it was red. She might be able to pull of running the light, but she wouldn't do that. Hermione had just gotten her mom a birthday present, it was a beautiful sapphire heart shaped pendant on a long white gold chain, with matching earrings on a quarter of a centimeter white gold chains. Hermione had also taken the liberty of getting Harry's birthday present too. It had taken her forever to find it. While she had been thinking about what it was, she hadn't noticed that the light, which now in counting had been on red for 15mins, had changed to green. She finally stopped her thoughts when she noticed the impatient honking behind her.
"Alright already! Oh my god, people are so impatient around here!"she said, then looking at the time, it was almost 9:00, she yelled "Oh no, I AM SO GONNA BE LATE!" her moms birthday celebration was, unless they had changed the time, in ten minutus. The time it would take to get from here to there was approximately 30 minutes. She was undoubtably going to be late.
Hermione sped up exceeding the speed limit by just a little (yeah right, like 30 mph over the actual speed limit is "just a little".) "Oh crap. Oh crap. Oh crap. Im gonna be late!"(and here is the 20 minute time laps in which nothing special what so ever happens. Well, Hermione almost gets pulled over by the police but that's about it)
Only when she saw the stop sign leading on to her neighborhood did she slow down. Hermione did this, not only because she had almost gotten pulled over once, but because she loved it here. The trees hung low over the street. And a beautiful stream could be herd, sometimes seen, running through the neighborhood .Damn the weather though. It was raining so hard that Hermione could barely see or hear it now. She took a left to take her down to her street. Hermione was getting closer to her house, and she was so worried that she'd get a lecture on being so late, that she didn't notice the blurry green in the sky. (Oh what does this mean? If your smart you should know.)
As Hermione got closer to her house, there was no way in hell that you couldn't notice green in the sky by now. Unless...unless...YOU ARE FRICKEN BLIND OR SOME SORTA DUMB!(no offence to people like me, I wouldn't a noticed it. Hehe I can't see a thing with out my glasses, my hand, right in front of my face, for instance) Well sense she was nether stupid nor blind (if she was then, how would she drive a car? By smell?) she had noticed it long ago. But being optimistic she thought it was a weird cloud. Oh how wrong was she. Hermione was about to find out just how vary, vary wrong she was.
Just as Hermione was about to reach her house she looked up. Why she didn't know, but when she did was glad (well not really, kinda sorta freaked, scared. Sad, more over. Yeah, sad's the right word) She was glad because it told her not to go into the house. And even though it was blurred by the rain, Hermione could make it out, hovering right above her house was, bright and menacing, the dark mark..
Hermione stared at it. She was shocked beyond all reason. Why would You-know-who want to kill her parents? She hadn't known how hard it was to follow the dictions "Do not enter a house or building with the dark mark over it" until now that is. It was vary hard. Because, if you have lost a loved one, be it friend or family, you feel compelled to go to them, to say just one last time, even if they cant hear you, how you feel.
So before she could break the rules, she turned her car around and sped off towards Harry's house.

Harry plopped on to his bed. He had just gotten a letter from Hogworts saying that the school will not open this year, and that it would probably re-open next year after some extensive protective magic. And that, if he chooses, Harry could come back next year to finish his education.
"Oh man, Hedwig," he said "now's my chance I can finally do what I've always wanted to do, and I can go back to school when this is all finished with too." 'If I...live to do so, that is' he thought sadly. Right now Harry really wished he had a car. Then he could go to London, get a job in the magical world, earn enough money for two magical tents and go. He really wanted to go, he not only wanted to get started on his journey to kill Voldemort, but to be rid of this hell hole also.
Harry got up to go get a drink of water. He left his room and went down the stares. He was almost at the bottom step, when he heard a knock on the door. Followed almost eminently by Uncle Vernon saying "Who the bloody hell is that? And in this weather too!" then a creek as the wood of his bed sagged under his weight. Although he still isn't as heavy as Dudley, Uncle Vernon was still pretty fat. He came out of his room as another knock sounded at the door. He saw Harry and yelled "Boy, answer the door!" by this time, Dudley had already come out of his room to see what was going on.
"Alright, I'm going, I'm going" Harry said exasperatedly. As he turned the nob of the door. When he opened it he look into the tiered, wet face of, "Hermione?" Hermione Granger was
standing on the threshold of the house "what are you doi-ah!" Hermione flung her arms around Harry, making him fall to the floor and cried. The only thing Harry could think of was to put his arms around her. "Hermione" he whispered then a loud, annoying voice broke him from his thoughts.
"Who's this? Your girlfriend?" Dudley asked
Harry had completely forgotten the Dursley's, who by now were all circled around him. Harry thinking up a quick lie said "this is my Muggle friend, Hermione Granger." the Dursleys registered what that meant and finally came to the conclusion that she was none-magical.
"Muggle means none-magical right?" asked Uncle Vernon.
"Yeah so just let me take her up stares and- " Harry was cut off
"How did you meet her then, if she's normal?" Aunt Petunia asked.
"Ah..aaaa...um...aaaa, oh yeah," he said with a stroke of brilliance "she's the stepsister of my Best Friend, Ron. Her mom, a muggle, married his dad, a wizard" he said(the Dursley's flinched at the word "wizard")'yet another brilliant idea' he thought 'I just hope that she isn't to offended' "So," he continued his previous sentience " If you would, I need to take her up stares" he got up, pulled Hermione with him, and went upstares. She had stayed quiet the whole time. When he had said his first lie she had fallen silent. When they finally got to his room, Hermione started laughing. Harry looked at her perplexed.
"Why are you laughing?" he asked just a tad bit scared.
"Because of the lie, it was so farfetched" she laughed "Why did you have to tell a lie anyway?"
"Because if I hadn't they'd have thrown you out. And you were so...so...distressed , I couldn't let that happen, I would never let that happen even if you were perfectly fine," he said.
Hermione looked at him, and smiled, there were dried tears on her face, they shimmered in the light "thank you, Harry." she said. Harry blushed slightly and hid his face so that she couldn't see.
"So are you gonna tell me why you're here at..." he looked at the clock " 11:57p.m at night?"
Hermione sighed "My parents died, well they were murdered actually," she said sounding on the
verge of tears. "I was coming home after getting you and my mom a birthday present seeing as how today's the day before your birthday and all, and it was her birthday today. Well when I got home, I looked up and saw the dark mark hovering above the house." Harry stared at her, shocked.
"But your parents are-"
"Muggles? I know," she said. To Harry it sounded like she was crying.
"I'm so sorry, Hermione." he said coming closer to her. She feel on the bed shaking. From shock, crying, or both Harry couldn't tell. He sat next to her and she hugged him and put her head on his shoulder, and cried out her anger, sadness, and who what ever else. He put his arm around her shoulders.
After a long time, she fell asleep on his shoulder. 'I guess that this means that she's going to staying awhile,' Harry thought.
He laid her down on the on the bed, being careful not to wake her. Harry went over to the closet to go get a winter blanket, you see because she was all wet from the rain outside that if she didn't have something to keep her warm then she would get sick. He put the blanket on top of her, and went to his desk to write a letter to Ron, telling him every thing about this crazy night and that he wished he had a car.
He tied it to Hedwig's foot and she flu off into the night. Then he got a blanket a pillow and another couple of blankets and pillows, made a bed on the floor and went to sleep almost instantly. His dreams were full of inquiring cousins, aunts, and uncles, weeping Hermione's, and for reasons unknown to him, Ron laughing at him for getting out of the drivers seat of a lime-green bug convertible.

Okay now if you need any explanation to some of the things in this story (if your like my brother) here it is:
The car: already told you
The directions to not enter a house or building with the dark mark over it: the little purple pamphlet that every which and or wizard got over the summer in the 6th book.
The death of her parents: I wont tell you yet, that's to come later.
If you don't already know what "mph" is then: that's really, really sad.
Some of my spelling misstates: I really, and I mean really suck at spelling. And,
if you don't already know what a bug convertible is then I'm not gonna tell 'ya.
Any way, like I said before, R&R people! And now that it's summer vacation for me, I can write more that I could before, so if you read some of my other things then just know that they will be updated soon. And I just noticed that I go off topic...a lot. Oh well. Until next time,
TTFN! Oh yeah, and if some one could please exsplain the meaning of the disclaimer, I'd be really happy, I already know what its for, (I hope I don't sound stupid.)
And I'm pretty sure that this is the longest fanfic I've wrote so far, yup, took me all night. (Mostly because people wouldn't stop AIMing me)(evil: hey I just got back from my dads and we were fighting for the internet all weekend. So I needed to talk to someone.) but also because I wanted it to be longer, so yeah. And just so you know after much thought I have decided to change the end paring to: Harry and Hermione, kk? Oh yeah and to people who have read my story "It Feels Right" I'm not gonna write a sequel. Why? I wont tell you. So for real this time, Until next time, TTFN! Remember, R&R or I will seek you out. Just kidding, or am I? Huh...?
