Chapter 2
Hermione was going to stay with her uncle Tony after she was done with school.
Hermione POV
It was the next day. I got up and out of my bed and put my clothing on that I had then I went downstairs to see Tom for food. After I got done eating I went to Madame
Malkins dress shop to pick up the clothing I would need for work, day wear and for the school year. I decided that I needed a new look. I went for more feminine clothes
adding in dresses and skirts allowing myself a few shorts and pants. After I paid for everything I headed back to the leaky cauldron to put up my clothing.
After I did that I went to work when I got there Mrs. Little the owner of the store told me that I would be working the front today and if it got slow I would have to put
the books where they needed to be. That was an endless battle keeping the books where they belonged. I didn't mind though it kept me busy. When I wasn't too busy
sometimes I would take a book to read. Without Ron or Harry dragging me off on adventures I had a lot of free time. I had to admit I liked reading about adventures a
lot more than having them. Especially when the people you trusted and went on adventures with really hated you. I scowled deeply at the book I was putting away. I
still couldn't understand how it all went so wrong. I would say possibly the imperious curse but Harry had been able to fight that off since fourth year. I shrugged I would
just have to let them go. As much as it pained me maybe they just didn't like me. They did always turn on me rather easily like when they thought crook shanks ate
Scabbers or the broom incident. I slammed the book into its spot a bit harder than necessary.
The day was going very fast with very little time to dwell. It was 1:30 when Mrs. Little said I could go for lunch. After I left the book store I headed to a small quiet deli
in muggle London. When I got there, I ordered a small sandwich and soup. The sandwich was ham and cheeses melt and the soup was a tomato soup.
After I finished my food I paid for it then I left for the shop, when I got back to the shop Mrs. little asked me to head to the back to put more of the books away. I was
doing that till it was time for me to leave for the day. It was 6 pm when I left the shop when I got back to the leaky cauldron I sat down to eat dinner. While I was
eating Tonks and Remus came in to the cauldron they saw me and headed to me. Remus and Tonks both looked furious. Tonks normally pink hair was pure red. Remus
eyes glowed Amber meaning his wolf was reacting to his anger.
They asked me if they could sit down with me I told them that they could. I asked them how they were doing they told me that they were doing great. Their smiles
didn't reach their eyes. They asked me how I was doing. I told them what was going on and how it made me feel. I was hurting a lot and ended up crying on Tonks
shoulder. She was at a loss and so was Remus. They had never seen me so upset.
They told me that they did not know why the others were acting that way but they would not leave me like everyone else. They told me not to listen to them and just
finish with school and move to the states with my uncle. They made me promise to visit and asked me to be Teddy's godmother. Harry was originally the Godfather but
with his recent behavior they decided to make me his godmother and Neville would be the new godfather.
Then we got to talking about what I wanted to do when I got to the states I told them I do not know yet because I have not heard back from my uncle. They told me
that he would get back to me soon don't worry.
Then I saw it was getting late so I told them that I was heading up for the night. When I got up to the room I saw that Snowstorm was back from my Uncle's place. He
told me that he would love to have me to stay with him.
He told me that me that there was other's that lived with him and that his boss wanted to see me when I got there. I found this strange because I didn't even know
what he did for a living. I wondered what interest his boss had in me. After I read the letter I headed to bed then I fell asleep.
When I got up in the morning I headed downstairs and ate breakfast then I went back upstairs and got dressed in my work clothing then I went back downstairs and left to work.
That how my summer went then it was July when I got a letter from the school with my school list and I saw that was not made Head Girl but I did not mind it. July of
course reminded me of Harry. His birthday coming up and for the first time in years I wouldn't send him a present. It was hard I felt like Harry and Ron all the Weasly's
for that matter had died. In a way, they had. The second family and best friends I knew were gone. I just wanted to get though the school year without everyone asking
me questions about what had happened with Harry and Ron. In all honesty, I didn't even know myself. It hurt to because I had a crush on Ron. I had wanted to date
him. Now I couldn't stand the thought of him. I still hadn't forgiven him for abandoning us on the hunt. Now I never would. This was unforgivable.
I took out paper and a pen and wrote a letter to my Uncle Tony to asked him how he was doing. After I got done writing the letter to him I sent the letter with Snow
Storm. Then I got dressed in a summer dress after I got dressed I went downstairs to buy my school stuff.
After I got everything done I packed all my school things away. I went downstairs to eat dinner while I was eating I saw the Harry, Sirius, the Weasly's, and the Malfoys
talking having a good time it seemed that they all got along. When did that happen? How did that happen? My intuition flickered that something was very wrong.
I tried to escape before they saw me, but before I could get to the stairs they saw me and they all gave me a cold look then they went up to Tom and told him that he
should kick me out. He doesn't need a mudblood at his place. I started shaking, my eyes stinging. The emotional pain physically hurt. I felt like puking. My whole body
was on fire. I would have expected that from the Malfoy's but from Harry? Never once had he or the Weasly's mentioned my blood status. After they told him that Tom
told them to GET OUT OF HIS PLACE AND NEVER COME BACK HEAR EVER AGAIN.
Then they left after calling me a mudblood once more too bad after they said that the Head Master was there and saw what happened. He coldly told Ginny and Harry to
hand over their Head Boy and Head Girl badges because they don't deserve them. He said they will go to someone else who does. He told them if they did this again they
will be kicked out of school because he would not put up with that kind of behavior at school. He then handed me the head girl badge. Ginny glared at me. I couldn't
believe the pure venom in her brown eyes.
After he said that they all left beside the headmaster. He asked me how was my summer so far so I told him what happened. He told me not to worry about anything.
He told me I could have my own room because he knew the others would not leave me alone while I was at school. Then he told me to see him after the feast on the 1
of September so he could show me my room for the year.
After we got done talking he left too then I went up to Tom to see if he needed any help today because today was my day off at the shop. He told me yes, he needed
help. Before I knew it, summer was over and I was standing on the platform getting ready to get on the train.
When I got on the train I found compartment all by myself when I shut the door I locked it and pulled the blinds down so no one could see me or try to hurt me like I
knew they would before I knew it the train was stopping at Hogsmead.
Then I got out of my compartment and went down to a carriage then it took off to the castle. When I got to the castle I sat down at the end of the table because no one
sat there but it surprised me to see Neville, Dean and Seamus sat next to me I asked them why they were sitting next to me they told me that they don't follow Harry
and Ronald or the others saying that what they said to me was not right. They were all shocked at their savior's behavior. Ron had always been fickle but this was a new darker Harry Potter.
After dinner was over I went up to Dumbledore so he could show me where my room was. He said he was sorry but he need to take care of something but Professor
Snape would show me to my room then he left me with him.
He told me to follow him and he took me down to the dungeons where there was a room that no one knew about. When I got up to the door it was a painting of a
three-headed dog it reminded me of Fluffy the dog was with his trainer the trainer. The trainer asked for the password I told him it was Tony Stark.
When we got into the common room he asked me why I picked that one I told him it was the name of my uncle. He left me to look at everything the colors of the front
room was all the houses colors one wall was blue and with a bookshelf with a lot of books already there. There was one wall gold with paintings of different things and
next one was silver with paintings and I saw that there was a stair case going up to my room.
When I went up there I saw that the color of the room was black and red my favorite colors. My bed was king sized with my trunk and the bottom of the bed then to the
right of bed I saw another door that looked like the bathroom it was black and red too. After I looked at everything I went back downstairs to see that the was couches
were red and green with silver lining and a table so I could do my homework and write letters to my Uncle, Tonks and Remus. I sat down and on the red couch and
wrote a letter to them all telling them that I got my own room and was doing good so far.
Then I went up to my room and got undressed and I put on my PJ's and got into bed and fell asleep.
