Hermione's POV

A couple of days had passed since her best friends visit and Hermione was bored. None of them had called her for the passed week and had not even sent her letters. Were they that annoyed with her wanting to marry Jay? She sighed. No calls from her friends were not going to stop her from marrying Jay.

Hermione finished off her stack of papers just before her phone started to ring. She reached for it immediately and answered it. "Hello?" she said, hoping slightly that it was Jay and not her best friends.

"Hey baby! It's me Ginny" came the reply.

Hermione frowned. "Why haven't you called for the past week?"

"I was busy" was the simple reply that came from her good red haired friend. "Anyway, how are you? Are you free today?"

"Am I free?" Hermione said. "Yes I am. Why?"

"Oh, we are going to this convention"

"'We' as in who?" Hermione asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Lavendar, Luna and I of course!" Ginny said in a matter of fact way.

"Hey!" a new voice joined in.

Hermione smiled. It was Lavendar.

"How are you darling? Have you been bored to death without any calls from us?" she asked. "We're sorry!"

"It's alright Lav" she said.

"We are going to Apparate over if that's alright" she said.

Hermione dropped her phone with pain as she heard a loud zap next to her ear. "OW!!!!" she moaned.

ZAP ZAP ZAP

Her three best friends appeared in front of her.

"YOU THREE!" she hissed as she held onto her right ear. "Don't you girls dare Apparate with the phone next time! My ear hurts!"

"Sorry" they mumbled.

Once Hermione calmed down she asked them what kind of convention they were taking her to.

"Quidditch Convention" Lavendar said with a sigh. "Atanas Kirov... He's so hot!"

Hermione rolled her eyes. "I'm not sure about Luna but I'm sure Ms. Weasley and Ms. Brown are just going there for the hot guys"

Ginny and Lavendar blushed. "THAT'S NOT TRUE!"

"Anyways, are you going to go?" Luna asked. "You haven't been out with us all week!"

"That's because you three never called and I had lots of work to do" Hermione muttered.

"Has Jay called you over the week?" Ginny suddenly asked as Hermione started to walk to her room.

"Why?" she asked.

"Just wondering..." Ginny mumbled.

"He has but we couldn't talk for long" Hermione said as she started to change. "He's got his job to do"

Lavendar suddenly popped herself into her room causing Hermione to shriek and trip over whilst trying to put her way too long skirt on.

"HERMIONE!" she shrieked as she watched her lie on the floor. "You're not wearing that to the convention?!"

Ginny and Luna suddenly popped themselves in and stared at her with surprise. And by the looks on their faces, they were clearly agreeing with Lavendar.

"You're taste in fashion, I have to admit, was okay back at school" Ginny said. "But ever since you started dating Jake- it's gotten horrible!"

"Jake?" Hermione spat out before realizing Ginny meant her boyfriend. "HE'S CALLED JAY!"

Luna decided to calm her down by telling her to change.

Her three best friends then started to go through her things and managed to get her to wear her shortest skirt which was a knee length skirt and collared long sleeved top. She was actually quite pleased with what they managed to put together. Since starting work, Hermione had never really had the time to look after her fashion.

"Are you ready then?" Luna asked.

Hermione got her hand bag with other things she needed then nodded.

"We have got to use the fire place to get there" Lavendar said. "Konstadin Vidanov said so"

"Konstadin Vidanov? I remember his name from one of our conver- How do you have the time to remember all of their names?" Hermione asked her when she realized she was talking about a Quidditch player from some newly formed team.

"How do you have all the time to finish your way too much work?" she retorted.

"Don't start an argument!" Ginny muttered. "Hermione? Where was your fireplace again?"

Hermione led her best friends to her fire place and took her floo powder out from a corner.

Lavendar took some first and got in. "Quidditch Convention Underground"
She then disappeared as the green fire came.

Luna then went in and did the same and disappeared.

"If you think about it" Hermione suddenly said. "I never really said I'd go"

Ginny rolled her eyes. "You are coming with us young lady. You've been boring your head with work!"

Hermione sighed as she looked at her best friend. "I don't know" she said. "I think you three are up to something... I just have this feeling"

If Ginny had panicked, she had hidden it well as it came. She smiled. "Aren't we three always up to something?'

"True" Hermione said after raising an eyebrow.

Ginny took some of the powder. "I'll go after you" she said. "I have to make sure you are going with us"

Hermione took some powder and stepped into her fireplace. "Quidditch Convention Underground" she said.
She closed her eyes as the green flames swallowed her up. She could see Ginny wave to her as she disappeared.
