"Ron, Ginny!" Harry yelled, as he saw his best friend and girlfriend come towards him. Harry and Ron gave a bro hug, while Harry kissed Ginny. "Where's Hermione?" Ron asked, looking around. "I thought she was with you" Harry said, and Ginny shook her head, biting her lips to keep her mouth shut.
"The train is almost leaving, we better get inside" Ginny said, and they all looked one last time, before entering the train.
Hermione stood hidden. Tears welled up in her eyes, as her cousin stand with her. "Sooner or later they'll find out, even him" Astrid, Hermione's cousin, said. Hermione shook her head, sobbing, as they walked out.
Harry, Ron, and Ginny sat in their compartment, along with Lavender, Neville and Luna. Ron and Lavender got back together, which isn't a surprise. "Hey have you seen Hermione?" Harry asked them. Lavender looked at Luna, who shook her head.
"No, we haven't seen her" Lavender said, as Ginny laughed quietly. "Boys go and put your robes on" Ginny shooed all three boys away.
"So, how is she?" Luna asked, as they boys left. "She alright. She said she won't be coming back. She's scared that they might shut her out if she told them" Ginny said, and Lavender sighed. "So, we are the only ones to know?" Lavender asked. "Only ones to know what?" Said a voice and all three girls jumped. Standing there was Draco Malfoy.
"None of your buisness, ferret" Ginny hissed. Draco sneered at Ginny, and then looked around. "Where's the mudblood?" Draco asked, and Luna sighed. "That is also none of your buisness" Lavender said, and Draco left, not wanting to cause trouble.
Then something started to ring. It was that thingy that Hermione gave Ginny as a birthday present. Ginny opened it, and answered.
"Hello?"
"Ginny"
"'Mione! Bloody hell, you better give an excuse to the boys when we get there. They have been asking where are you. We got them distracted"
"I know, I know. Just wait, I'll think of somethin- No baby, you can't eat that...Well, I have to go, bye Ginny"
"Bye 'Mione"
Hermione sighed as she looked at her cellphone. She put it down and put her gaze on the child who was teething. "No, baby, not that either" Hermione said, picking up and grabbing the ball from his little chubby hands. She grabbed his pacifier and put it into his mouth. 4 months old, he looked too much like his father, and with that memory, Hermione held the little child closer.
"Hermione, I'm going to help my Mother at the store in Diagon Alley, do you want me to take Scorp?" Astrid asked, and Hermione nodded. When she got to the store, she saw many students walking around.
"Oh, Astrid, and look who you brought, hello little Scorp"
"Why are there so many students here?"
"Your father's friend said that they are allowing students to buy something as a token of the dreadful war. You watch the store, I need to get some things"
"Yes Mother"
As Astrid waited, she heard the bell of her parents shop sound. She looked up to see three students walking around. "HallÄ (Hello), welcome to the Sweet Spot Shop, what can I help you with?" She asked, rocking the small baby in her arms. His eyes were closed and his hair was covered by his hat.
"We are wondering...Is that your baby?" asked a pugged-faced girl. "Nej (No), it's my kusins barn, my cousin's baby" She replied, putting the child in his stroller and looking at them with a smile.
"My name is Blaise Zabini, this is Draco Malfoy and Pansy Parkinson" said the young lad, kissing her hand. Astrid realised the name he said, but didn't show any emotions. She pulled her hand away, smiling, secretly wiping her hand. He noticed, and mentally frowned, but still held a charming smile.
"My name is Astrid. I would say the rest of my name, but it's very long, and customer service is the number one thing" She said. "Do you have anything good in here?" Asked Pansy, looking around. Her smiled turned into a confused looked, and she then realized what there house is.
"Slytherin I see" She said, frowning and wishing that Merlin killed her right there and then. Draco wasn't paying much attention in what Pansy or Blaise were doing, but he looked at the girl. She looked familiar. "Pansy, Blaise, we're leaving" Draco suddenly said, as they both nodded, leaving the Sweet Spot Shop. Astrid looked there confused, but shrugged it off, as kids from Second year came in.
