Home Again

Chapter One - Meet My Parents

Hermione got off the train onto the platform back at Kings Cross and sighed. Her first year at Hogwarts was over, and it was going to be a long summer until she could be back with her new friends, Ron and Harry. She ran through the barrier back to the Muggle platform and waited at a empty corner for her parents, when someone tapped her on the shoulder.

"Harry! Ron!" Hermione beamed, turning to face them.

"We just wanted a final chat before we go!" Harry smiled, but frowned suddenly. "Before I leave to go back to the... Dursleys" he winced.

"You're both coming over to mine though, I promise!" Ron said, tapping Harry's back.

"Great, make sure you write though!" Hermione nodded.

"We will" They chirped, rolling their eyes at her.

"As long as you don't over-read over the summer" Ron grinned.

"It's not possible to over-read, Ron" Hermione snapped, gripping her trolley.

"It isn't for you" Ron snickered, but went silent when she glared at him. "Sorry"

"It's ok" Hermione smirked at his expression, and turned to see her parents waving. "Mum! Dad!"

Her parents were smiling nervously at her as they made their way through the crowd to get over to them. Her mum looked alot like Hermione, except didn't have the same coloured hair or eyes, instead she had bushy, dirty blonde hair and blue eyes, while her father had brown hair and eyes, though his hair had began to go grey.

"Hermione, how are you?" Mrs Granger smiled, hugging her daughter tight.

"Fine" Hermione breathed. "Mum, meet my friends"

Mrs Granger looked up at the two boys who were staring nervously at her, and smiled.

"Introduce me then, 'Mione" she said, holding Mr Granger's arm.

"This is Harry, Harry Potter, the one I've told you about." Hermione blushed as she introduced Harry, who was blushing just as much, but still nodded and smiled.

"Hi" he muttered, nodding his head.

"Hello" Hermione's parents beamed at him.

"And this is Ron Weasley" Hermione smiled as she introduced Ron, who seemed the least nervous of them all, nodded and smiled at them.

"Nice to meet you" Ron grinned.

"You two, kid" Mr Granger grinned back.

Hermione felt proud that her parents seemed to like them both, and cheered up considerably, until she remembered she was about to go home.

"Goodbye Harry" Hermione smiled and hugged him. "Good luck at the Dursleys"

"Thanks, have a good summer" Harry smiled, breaking the hug.

Hermione moved to Ron, who blushed majorly.

"Er... H-have a good summer, Hermione" Ron smiled lopsidedly, unsure what to do next.

"You two" Hermione took a deep breath, and hugged him, though it wasn't like the hug from Harry, it was more awkward, yet comfortable.

"Don't forget to write" she said, sternly.

Ron rolled his eyes at her "We won't"

"Good" Hermione giggled and turned to her parents. "Let's go!"

"Ok, goodbye dears" Mrs Granger beamed, waving at them.

"Bye, Mrs Granger" they smiled, waving back.
