ENJOY!

Last time…Noticing how late it had gotten Hermione said goodnight and went upstairs to bed. She was excited for tomorrow and looking forward to how the rest of this summer would play out.

PRESENT

Grimmauld Place

Today was the day that Hermione was to meet Haileigh at the Leaky Cauldron for lunch. She still couldn't believe she told Remus and Sirius about Haileigh's trust problems.

'It'll be fine Hermione, as long as Comet doesn't find out' this is what she chanted to herself as she was getting ready for the day.

Harry and Ron had found her in the library. "Hey Mione"

"Hey Harry, Ron. What are you two up to today?" They silently communicated with each other before answering her.

"We were off to play a game of quidditch at the Burrow this afternoon, want to come with?" Hermione smiled at them. "No thank you" "See Harry I told you she wouldn't. Probably going to sit here and read all day"

Of course Ron had to ruin her good mood. She sighed before answering them. Harry could tell that Ron had hit a nerve again. "No Ronald, I am not going to sit here and read all day. I can't come with you because I already have plans. Now if you'll excuse me I have to go and meet my friend"

Hermione quickly left before either of them could say anything to her. "What's her problem?"

"I don't know Ron, maybe it's because you just insulted her" Harry rolled his eyes and walked away leaving Ron to think about what he just said.

LEAKY CAULDRON

Hermione was irritated beyond belief. 'Why does he always have to do that?' Why couldn't she have plans, why did she always have to supposedly be reading in the library ALL THE TIME! 'What did I ever see in him anyways?'

She made her way into the pub and looked around for her cousin. Hermione spotted her towards the back of the room and walked over to her.

"Hey Comet" she smiled down at Haileigh. "Hey Princess, have a seat" She sat down and looked closely at what Haileigh was wearing today.

She was wearing a pair of black hip hugger skinny jeans with a purple studded belt, she had on a Metallica band t-shirt with a purple tank top underneath, and purple Converse. She was also wearing her crescent moon necklace and some black jelly bracelets on her left wrist.

Her hair was up in a messy ponytail so her earrings could be seen easily,7 in her right ear and 6 in her left. Her eyes were once again rimmed with black eyeliner and purple eye shadow, and her glasses were nowhere to be seen. Hermione was always surprised at her cousins choice of style. It was certainly unique that was for sure.

"You always dress to stand out?" she couldn't help but ask. Haileigh just smiled "Of course I do, I've always enjoyed trying to stand out. Especially in the Wizarding World." Hermione let out a giggle. "Well you definitely accomplished that"

They were quiet for a moment before Haileigh spoke up. "Hermione, I know you've been through a lot with the war and everything." She paused before speaking again "There is a reason why I came to England"

"Are you telling me that my parents asked you to keep an eye on me?" Hermione couldn't believe what she was hearing. "I can take care of myself"

Haileigh smiled at her cousins outburst. "That's not what I meant Princess. Your parents never asked me to come, I made the decision on my own." She looked at Hermione and noticed the now confused look on her face.

"I had a job offer, that I knew I couldn't refuse. And since it's here I thought it would be a good idea to spend more time with you as well" Haileigh let what she just said sink in. "Wait, you had a job offer" at this she nodded "And you want to spend more time with me?" again Haileigh nodded.

"So where will you be working. You can't have come all this way just to work at Flourish and Blotts." Hermione was always quick to figure things out.

"You're very right Hermione. I'm only working there so I can pay for my flat right now. But I'm not going to tell you where I'll be working just yet." They continued on with conversation of random things before Hermione brought up the subject of dating, which she knew she would regret later.

"Hey Comet?" Hermione asked sometime later when they were in a record store. "Yea Princess" "Are you" she paused "are you dating anyone right now" Haileigh stopped what she was doing to look at her "No Hermione, I'm shopping with you right now" Haileigh grinned at her as she said this.

"That's not what I meant and you know it" Hermione crossed her arms and gave Haileigh her best glare. Haileigh shook her head "No I'm not. Why do you ask?" "Just wondering really" Haileigh gave her a look saying 'I know you have a reason and you better tell me'.

"Oh well um.." "Does this have anything to do with the two guys you were with when we met at Diagon Alley?" Hermione groaned "Actually yea it does. You see, They both really like you even though they just met you." Haileigh nodded for her to continue "Would you consider going on a date with both of them?"

She could not believe that Hermione of all people was trying to set her up on a date. And not with one person but two. She walked over to her and put a hand to Hermione's forehead. "Are you feeling alright Princess" She pushed Haileigh's hand away. "Did they ask you to do this?"

"Actually, believe it or not it was my idea" Haileigh gave her a skeptical look. "They seem to be much older than I am" "They're both 37. It's not that old, especially in the Wizarding world. You know that." "I know, but they're almost the same age as my parents are" They both sighed.

"Okay we both know that age is just an excuse for me not to go on a date. They're both extremely good looking" Hermione nodded, she couldn't believe her ears. Was Haileigh really going to except a date?

"Alright, one date with each of them and then we'll see what happens" Hermione let out a squeal and hugged Haileigh tight. "It's going to be great, trust me. Sirius and Remus are going to be very happy" Haileigh waved her off "Yea, yea. We should get going. It's going to be dark soon and I have to work in the morning."

They headed back to the Leaky Cauldron and said their goodbyes. Hermione made it back just in time for dinner. She couldn't wait to tell them.

GRIMMAULD PLACE LIBRARY

Hermione was lounging in the library checking out her new books before bed, when Sirius and Remus came in and sat down on either side of her.

They looked at each other before Sirius spoke. "So, care to tell us what has you so happy?" Hermione looked at him then Remus, and quickly stood up to tell them her good news.

"You both know I had my lunch date with Haileigh today" they both nodded "well we got to talking and I asked her if she was dating anyone at the moment.

Of course she had to be a smart arse at first before I got my answer, but her answer was no she wasn't"

Remus decided to speak before she continued "What does that have to do with us Hermione?"

"It has everything to do with you. Haileigh figured out what I was getting at right away, but in the end I got her to agree to go on a date with the both of you."

Both men were shocked and thought they were hearing things. "You got us a date with your cousin?" she nodded her head smiling.

Sirius shot out of his seat and hugged Hermione tightly and Remus quickly joined in. "Hermione we absolutely love you. Thank you" She laughed at their antics.

"Yes, well I'm glad you're happy, but I do need to breathe" They let go of her and went to sit back down. "Her owl Sylvester is here, so I suggest you both write her a letter about when and where you would like to meet her for your dates."

"Sylvester?" she giggled at this "It's from a muggle cartoon called Looney Tunes. Sylvester is a cat and Haileigh's favorite character"

Hermione started to leave the room before she turned back "Oh and just to let you know this is your only chance, so make it count. Night"

Good Luck Gentlemen
