"See you Hunnie and take care of yourself," said her mum as Hermione hugged her. Her mum and dad didn't leave her off at the platform anymore, seeing as Hermione was older now and she also had three hours to spare before the boarding of the Hogwarts Express, which she'd use to get her textbooks. Goodbyes were easier now that she was older. She remembered when she was little and goodbyes always ended up in tears as she waved her parents off, whilst the Hogwarts Express gathered speed from the platform. But this year she was looking forward to returning, she had things to do and people to find.
"See you mum, I'll be coming home for Christmas this year," replied Hermione smiling. Her mum looked shocked.
"No staying at the Burrow? What's wrong with you?" her mum laughed. Hermione knew her mum was overjoyed with her news, she hadn't had a Christmas with her family in ages and so it would refreshing to her usual routine. Her mum smiled a teary smile again.
"This means the world to me Hermione, it really does," she said wiping away a stray tear. Hermione hugged her again and felt bad for all the other times she took a Family Christmas as a miss only to hang with Harry and Ron-as if she hadn't spent enough time with them over the whole school terms.
"I knew it would make you happy mum and I'm glad it has and I'm really sorry-" she was caught off by her mum putting a finger on her lips.
"Friends are also important its understandable. Now you best get going! You'll not get your textbooks! I'll leave your luggage in the train station, just ask at the reception and she'll find it, ok?" her mum smiled and giving Hermione a brief hug and kiss on the cheek she jumped into the car and drove away. Hermione waved to the car until it disappeared in the distance. She actually felt terrible that she didn't go to her family Christmas parties, it would be great at least to see her family and cousins again soon. Only a few months. As she walked off towards the entrance to Diagon Alley she only hoped nothing would get in the way of her Christmas plans. She would make her mum happy by going whether anyone liked it or not.
