Hermione Granger woke up the next morning from a night filled with rather inappropriate dreams about one Ronald Weasley.
She mentally smacked her self for thinking such vulgar scenarios about her best girlfriends older brother. Not wanting to dwell on her dreams any longer, Hermione got out of bed and made her way downstairs. In the kitchen, she found her Mother sat with a cup of tea and her Father reading the newspaper.
"Hello, dear" Her Mother greeted. "A letter came for you" She said handing Hermione a small piece of parchment.
"Thanks" She said as she took the letter from her Mum and read it.
Dear Hermione,
Would you like to spend a week or so at The Burrow this year for break?
Mum and Dad say it's fine and they'd be happy to have you. We usually have Blaise or Draco over, but the Malfoys' are going on some trip to Italy so only Zabini is coming.
Ask your parents, it will be great trust me!
Hope to see you soon.
-Ginny.
The idea of being invited to spend time at Ginny's family home made Hermione very proud. She never really gets invited anywhere.
So after asking her parents for permission, Hermione ran upstairs to reply to her friend.
Gin,
Sounds great!
My parents are OK with it, so just tell me when you want me over and I'll take the floo network.
See you soon
-Hermione.
A few owl messages later, and Hermione was packing her bag to head over to the Burrow. It had been decide that she would stay untill Christmas eve, which was eight days away.
It was now five o'clock and she was just bringing her bag down the stairs ready to floo to the Weasley's home.
"Mum, Dad, I'm about to leave" She called into the kitchen.
Her parents came out and followed her into the living room.
"Have fun darling, we'll see you when you get back" Her mother said while giving her a warm hug.
"OK, i'll see you in about a week" She replied as she stepped into the fire place. Throwing her floo powder into the now green flames, Hermione called out 'The Burrow' and was soon pulled into a whirlwind of flames and soot.
In a matter of minutes she landed in the fireplace of a very homely looking living room.
"Hello?" She called out nervously.
She heard footsteps and was soon greeted by a tall good-looking redhead.
"Woah. Hey, George! There's a chick in the fireplace!" He shouted out of the room before turning back to Hermione with a wide smirk. Soon he was joined by an identical boy with the same grin on his face.
"Um, I'm Hermione, Ginny's friend" She told them with a nervous smile.
"Oh, of course. GINNY!" The new boy shouted up the rickety staircase.
"What?" Hermione heard her friend ask in an irritated tone.
"Your friend Hermione is here" The first boy said.
The next thing Hermione heard was the sound of footsteps moving quickly over the floorboards.
"Hermione!" Ginny exclaimed, pulling her into a bone-crushing hug. "Hermione, these are my brothers, Fred and George" She introduced, pointing to each in turn.
"It's nice to meet you" Hermione greeted politely.
"It's a pleasure" The said in unison while bowing.
They then lest the room together. Ginny then yelled into the kitchen for her mother before dragging Hermione up the stairs.
"Mum! Hermione is here!"
In the kitchen, Ron was sat at the table with his father while is mother was baking.
"Mum! Hermione is here!" He heard his sister yell before they were greeted by the sound of a stampede moving up the stairs.
Suddenly Ron felt his chest clench. Hermione Granger?
"Who's here?" He asked his mother.
"Oh, Ginny's friend Hermione is staying for a while. Since Draco isn't coming, I told Ginny she could invite someone. She's in your year at school isn't she Ron?" She said.
Shit. Wait-Why is that bad? Why do I care? Maybe this could be fun. He thought with a wicked smirk.
Hermione and Ginny had been in her room for about an hour just talking about unimportant topics.
"RON! BLAISE IS HERE!" She heard Mrs. Weasley shout up the stairs. Shortly after, she heard footsteps running down the staircase, but they seemed to stop right outside Ginny's bedroom door.
"Dude, come up, I need to talk to you, like right now" She heard Ron call down the stairs. A few seconds later, she heard two sets of footsteps retreating up the tall house to a few floors above.
Ron is here? Of course Ron is here, it's his house you idiot! She thought to herself. Wait, how am I going to look at him after the way I was picturing him all of last night? Why was I even thinking of him like that? He's a sleezebag. He just shags people and leaves them. Unless you are Daphne Greengrass or Pansy Parkinson obviously.
Ron shut the door to his bedroom and moved to sit on his bed.
"So what's up dude?" Blaise asked as he set his bag down on his camp bed.
"Granger is here. I thought we could have some fun" Ron replied smirking.
"Granger? Hmm, we could do a lot with this" He replied with he same evil smirk.
"I think we could trick her out of her goodie-two-shoes persona and see who she really is" Ron suggested.
"Planning to seduce our dear Miss. Granger are we Ronald" Blaise replied wiggling his eyebrows.
"Maybe, she's a perfect option for when Daph and Pansy are away" He shrugged.
"You're a sick bastard Weasley"
"Get use to it" Ron replied laughing.
Hermione's POV
An hour or so later Ginny and I were in the kitchen helping make dinner.
"Thank you for letting me stay, Mrs Weasley" I said as I placed a basket of bread on the table.
"It's no problem dear, and call me Molly" She said with a sweet motherly smile.
I smiled back at her and then we heard the back door being opened. Then walked in a sweat covered, shirtless Ron with and equally sweaty and shirtless Blaise as his side. They were laughing as they walked into the kitchen and Ron went over to the fridge to pull out two bottles of water.
"Who won?" Molly asked.
"Ron, but I swear to Merlin he cheats" Blaise said leaning against the door frame.
"I don't cheat, it's all skill" He said putting his hands behind his head to chest. I couldn't help my eyes when they slowly roamed over his toned torso and muscular arms.
"That's my boy" Molly gushed giving him a small kiss on the cheek. "Now both of you go have a shower, dinner will be ready in half an hour" She instructed ushering them up the stairs.
"Yes ma'am" They replied in unison.
"Those to don't stop when it comes to Quidditch" Ginny said as she peeled some carrots at the sink.
"They are both on their house team aren't they?" I asked.
"Yeah, Ron is the Keeper and Blaise is a Chaser" She explained. I nodded in understanding and then thought back to the first Quidditch game of the year. I remembered seeing Ron block every goal thrown at him. He looked good on a broom. I quickly shook that thought from my head. Where did that come from?
During dinner I couldn't stop staring at Ron. He really was handsome. But he's Ginny's brother I can't think about him like that, I swear there's some kind of rule about it.
The next day, Ginny and I had just finished lunch when she came up with an amazing idea.
"Hermione! We should go swimming in the lake! It's just behind the house, it'll be so much fun!" She squealed.
"Really?" I asked skeptically.
"Yes really, now come on!" She said dragging me up the stairs.
"But Gin, I didn't bring a swimsuit!" I told her as we entered her room.
"Don't worry, you can wear one of mine" She said pulling out a black two-piece and throwing it at me.
"You can't be serious!" I exclaimed looking at this poor excuse for a bikini.
"Put it on, you'll look hot" She said rumaging around for her own suit. I rolled my eyes and got changed. Looking in the mirror I couldn't help but agree with Ginny, I did look good. The suit showed off my slight tan and made my breast look particularly bigger.
I threw on a blue caftan of Ginny's before picking up a towel and leaving the room behind her. When we got down stairs, we slipped on my sandals and exited the Burrow towards the small lake a few yards away.
Ron's POV
Blaise and I were just heading outside again to practice Quidditch. We just hopped on our brooms and soared into the air above the make-shift pitch behind my house.
After playing a one on one match for about an hour, I had sweat covering my bare chest and could feel my hair dampening.
I looked over the land around the house and over to our small lake. Sat on the bank was my sister and Hermione Granger. I looked over to Blaise and smirked.
"Fancy a dip?" I suggested wiggling my eyebrows. He understood my plan and we quickly soared towards the lake. Both girls had their eyes closed so didn't see us coming. When we we above the lake, about fifteen feet in the air, we looked to eachother and smirked before jumping off of our brooms and into the water, covering the girls with the cold lake water.
"RON!" Ginny screeched when we sufaced. We couldn't stop laughing when we made our way out onto the bank. "What the hell did you do that for?" She yelled.
"Needed to cool down" I shrugged smiling. I looked over to Hermione, who was wearing a very revieling swimsuit. I let my eyes linger on her cuves for a while and smirked. When I looked away I saw Blaise staring at Ginny. I smacked him over the hair and summoned my broom down from where it still hovered in the air. "Better hurry up little sister, dinner will be ready soon" With that we jumped back on our brooms and slew over to the house.
I couldn't keep my mind off of what I saw. Granger look good in little clothing, and I would be sure to see her in less some time soon
