Chapter One "Setting her up"

Eight Years Ago

"Harry?" Ron Weasley said as he came up behind him.

"Yeah Ron?" he said as he turned around to face his best friend.

"What do you plan on doing now? I mean since the Dark Lord is finally dead."

"I don't know Ron, I don't know." Harry said shaking his head then both friends walked away from Hogwarts and started to live life with out pain or misery from the Dark Lord.

Eight Years Later

"Harry?" A girl said as she tried to wake him up. "Harry." She said again with a dreamy voice. "Time to wake up." She smiled at him as he opened his eyes. "Good morning sleepy head." She said then kissed him.

"Mmmm…morning." Harry said then put his glasses on. "Sleep well?"

"Not with you keeping me up all night no." Ginny said then sat up.

"Sorry to hear that Gin." He said then got up from bed and put on a pair of pants with Ginny watching him.

"So, Harry I've been thinking and this hole thing with us is not really working out." Ginny said slowly looking at him. "I think it's time we broke up and just stay friends." She said with Harry just looking at her. "I'm sorry it's just better that way."

"She what?" Neville said then took a drink of butterbeer.

"She broke up with me." Harry said as he finished his Firewhiskey.

"Dam." Seamus said looking at him. "You know what, my company is making this reality show, where there is this guy and girls actually compete for him. If your interested Harry, you could do it. I'm sure a lot of girls would be interested and you could also find your dream girl that way. What do you say Harry?" Seamus said then drank some butterbeer.

"Uhh…I don't know. Sounds like a joke to me." Harry said.

"Oh come on Harry, just think of it you being around a lot of ladies who want you." Ron said. "If he doesn't want to do it can I?"

"Don't know really have to ask." He said. "Soooo, what do you say?"

"All right, I'll do it." Harry said as he put his drink down. "Just pick ones that I would actually like."

"How about after two weeks we go through the tapes, pictures, letters and everything together?" Seamus asked him.

"Sounds like a plan."

"OH MY GOD! Hermione!" Luna yelled then ran outside where she stood face to face with her best friend.

"What, what is it? Are you all right?" Hermione said nervously.

"I'm fine. Here read this." Luna said then handed Hermione the Daily Prophet.

"Attention all ladies! There is going to be a reality show called "I want to date Harry Potter." What we need you to do is send in why you would date him or anything at all, surprise us if you want to. We will be picking ten lucky ladies who will get to date him and there will be only one final winner.

Hope to see you there." Hermione finished then looked at Luna.

"Well?" Luna said looking at her.

"Well what?" she said then handed the Daily Prophet back to her.

"You should do it." Luna said which made her laugh.

"Right, Luna…it sounds like a joke to me. I mean even I'm not that lucky. I mean what would he actually want with a girl like me?"

"What wouldn't he want." Luna said looking at her. "Look Hermione, your smart, funny, beautiful, you have a great sense of humor and more. So don't tell me what he wouldn't want with a girl like you."

"I don't know Luna I mean being on a T.V show."

"Would be fun wouldn't it." Luna said cutting her off.

"I don't think so. Besides I have students to teach at Hogwarts in September. I can't just drop everything to do this." She said and Luna rolled her eyes. "Look Luna, I just happen to love my job. I mean teaching magical students to learn to do magic…it's great. Even though we went to a different magical school I love it at Hogwarts."

"Yeah because Harry Potter went there." Luna added.

"That has nothing to do with it and you know it Luna!"

"Gosh, I'm just kidding. Take a chill pill Hermione." Luna said then walked back into the house.

Later on that day Luna met up with Ron, Neville, Seamus, Lavender, Dean, Ginny and Harry. They were all in the Leaky Cauldron drinking some butterbeers and talking with each other. "So what's this I hear about you doing a TV show Harry?" Dean said looking at him.

"Yeah I know not my thing but Seamus here talked me into it."

"Really now." Luna said leaning back in her seat. "Sounds like you and Ginny broke up."

"We did." Ginny said. "Were just friends now."

"Thought so." Luna said then looked at Harry who just happened to be looking at her.

"What?" Harry said realizing she was looking at him.

"Nothing really. Just thinking is all." She said then Harry got up and walked over to the bar.

"About what Luna?" Ron said as he put his arm around her shoulder.

"Do you remember the girl I introduced you to two days ago?"

"Are you kidding? That girl was hot, why?" Ron said which earned him a smack from Luna. "Well she is but you are much hotter love." He said then kissed her. "So what about her?"

"Well I was thinking that she would be perfect for Harry." Luna said which got their attention.

"Go on." Seamus said. "Like tell us what she is like."

"Well she's very smart, pretty, kind, sweet, has a good sense of humor, and well she's single."

"Is she a muggle or a witch?" Ron asked.

"She's a witch. She teaches at Hogwarts School of witch…well you know what school I'm talking about." Luna said then everyone nodded.

"Is she interested in doing the show?" Dean asked.

"Well see that's the problem, she loves her job so much she doesn't have time for this kind of thing. Of course that's what she said anyway. I think she just gave up on men after her boyfriend died. She told me one day that they were actually talking about getting married."

"What happened to him?" Ginny asked.

"Drunk driver hit him walking on the side walk. He was pined against the car and a tree. Chris died before the Authors got there with help." Luna said then looked outside and when she did she saw Hermione and what looked like Draco.

"That's so sad." Ginny said as both Draco and Hermione walked in.

"What the hell is Malfoy doing with her?" Luna said looking towards the doors. What she didn't know was that the teacher's at Hogwarts were getting together because when she saw them sit down with them she stopped worrying.

"Well Luna it looks like Malfoy and that girl are with the Professors." Dean said.

"Yeah I kind of figured that part out." She said looking at him. "They usually do this. It's when all the professors at Hogwarts get together and just talk. It's actually quite boring." Luna finished as Harry came back.

"Well I should get going promised Wood I'd be at practice earlier today." Harry said and then left.

Two weeks later they closed the entries for the show and started to look at them.

"Okay." Seamus said looking putting in a video. "Her name is Lisa Alexander and she is twenty-two years old. She lives in North Carolina. Lisa likes long walks on the beach, she loves to read, she graduated ninth in her class and she's looking for a boyfriend." He finished then turned on the tape.

"Hi, I'm Lisa Alexander and I'm currently twenty-two years old." The girl started on the tape. She has long straight brown hair and brown eyes. She is very pretty and it looks like they both liked her. When the tape finished Seamus looked at Harry and smiled.

"I like her, don't you?"

"Yeah put her in." Harry said. About and hour of looking and laughing at a lot of them Seamus put in a tape and pressed play.

"Hi Harry, Seamus you both are probably wondering why I'm on here and well it's not for me. This is for my friend Hermione Granger." Luna said then the video showed other videos of Hermione and pictures. Then after awhile Luna's voice came back. "She doesn't know I'm doing this but I think she could use a guy like you. See her boyfriend died about three years ago and it just looks like she gave up on men. Hermione is a great person who gets along with partially everyone. She's very smart, kind, polite, out going, and well as you can see pretty or beautiful in your case." When Luna's voice stopped the tape stopped and Seamus just looked at Harry.

"I think we should use her." Harry said then Seamus nodded in agreement.

Two days later Harry Potter was on a talk show explaining to the viewers what the show was about and everything.

Hermione and her friends and family were all at a party when the phone rang. Luna went to the phone and picked it up. "Hello?"

"Hi this is Harry Potter and I was wondering if Hermione Granger is there?"

"Harry?"

"Hey Luna, is Hermione there?"

"Yeah hold on." Luna said as she went outside where everyone was along with the music blasting in the background. Hermione was near the back with some younger kids playing baseball. People that were watching the news right now could see what was going on considering that there were camera people there recording this. They saw a lot of people playing baseball and Luna saw Hermione step up to bat. "Hey Harry see the girl that's going to bat?"

"Yeah we see her."

"That's Hermione." Luna said as the cameraman zoomed in closer to Hermione. "Come on Hermione!" Luna yelled taking the phone away from her mouth. "Bring um home!" she yelled again then put the phone back to her mouth. "I'll give her the phone when she's off the basses okay."

"That's fine." The news guy said as they were watching the game. Just then the song 'Sweet Dreams' started to play in the background.About ten seconds later the ball was thrown towards her and Hermione hit it causing the ball to go over the fence. The kids on her team started to scream as she started to run for first, then second, third and finally home and she stopped when she saw Luna holding the phone and two camera people standing next to her.

"Hermione come here, you have a phone call." Luna said holding out the phone. "Great hit by the way." She said which made Hermione laugh.

"Yeah right, I just got lucky for once in my life." Hermione said as she put the phone to her ear. "Hello?" she said into the phone.

"Hello Hermione, this is Harry Potter and well your probably wondering why there are camera people standing by you. Well they are there because you have been selected to be on my show." Harry said and Hermione just looked at Luna.

"How could I be selected if I haven't sent anything in?" She asked him.

"Well see your best friend Luna here who I see is standing next to you has sent us something." Harry replied which made Hermione look back at Luna.

"Luna." Hermione started to say but she cut her off.

"Listen Hermione I thought you could use this. I mean seriously when was the last time you went on a date?"

"What does this has to do with anything?"

"Hermione listen I know your friend set you up and everything but if you could come by the studio tomorrow in the evening around six for an interview that would be great." Harry said.

"I don't know." Hermione said in reply.

"Come on, what's the worst that could happen?" Harry told her. Hermione looked at her family who was looking at her, she then looked at Luna and then the camera.

"All right tomorrow." She said giving in.

"Okay then see you tomorrow and I'll let you get back to playing baseball. Great hit by the way." Harry said then hung up the phone. Hermione took the phone away from her ear and turned it off.

"I'm going to kill you." She said to Luna who just smiled at her.

"Yeah, but you will thank me later for it." She said then walked away.
