You Again

Chapter Seven


The next 4 days had passed quickly for Hermione, she woke up Saturday morning practically bouncing off the walls. She hurriedly got dressed and ate breakfast to go see Ginny and help her with James so they could Hermione an outfit.

Stepping out of the fireplace she heard Ginny in the kitchen and it sounded like James was giving Ginny a hard time. "James, just wait a minute, let's get dressed before Auntie 'Mione gets here."

Hermione laughed to herself and walked into the kitchen to witness Ginny trying to shove a shirt on her son's head. Hermione clearly said while giggling out loud, "it looks like you are trying to wrestle a pig into a suit."

James stopped putting up a fight so he could run over to his aunt. After he got his shirt on he ran to Hermione and jumped in her arms. He started by saying mum and then babbling unintelligible words. Moving James onto her hip, Hermione questions Ginny "Are you ready to go? I wanted to go into Muggle London." Ginny nodded her head and walked over to the door to grab the diaper bag. "Let's go," she stated as she waited by the fireplace.

Hermione, Ginny, and James had been walking around Muggle London for over two hours, James being passed back and forth between the two adults. They had gone into six stores but none matched what Hermione had envisioned in her head. "Hermione," Ginny called exasperated "we have been going for a very long time. What exactly is it you're looking for?"

Hermione stopped walking and spun around to look at Ginny, "I'm not quite sure, I just haven't found it yet. Let's go in this store and if I don't find anything then we can have lunch and we can go back to my flat to look at clothes there."

Walking into the beautique they were greeted by an over enthusiastic sales person. "Hello welcome! My name is Nicole, how may I help you?" "Oh my goodness!" she exclaimed and bent down to get a better look at James in Hermione's arms, "you are too cute! Did you come to help mommy pick out clothes?"

Laughing Hermione deposited James into Ginny's arm and stated, "I'm only his aunt but I do need some help picking out some clothing for my date tonight. I want a skirt, a long sleeved shirt. I am not sure about the specifics."

While Hermione was speaking Nicole had looked her up and down and walked in a circle around her, by the time Hermione had finished speaking Nicole had clasped her hands together and started to walk off calling over her shoulder, "I have the perfect outfit for you. I will bring extras just in case. Please go to the fitting rooms to the left," she pointed to doors near the back of the store.

Hermione barely had time to get comfortable in the chairs before Nicole came back with 3 shirts and 2 pairs of skirts. Murmuring her thanks she grabbed the outfits and went into the dressing room. The first skirt was solid black that fell to her mid calf, when she tried it on she couldn't help but feel restrictive. Not wanting to dismiss it without completely trying the whole look together she grabbed the first white long sleeve scoop-neck t-shirt and put it on while she liked the colors together she did not want to stick with black and white.

She picked up the second skirt and saw it was black with a floral pattern, and it looked like fell just above her knees. The next shirt she blindly grabbed was a solid red shirt and when she put the outfit on, she liked how the colors went together. Knowing that she found the outfit she stepped out from the room to hear praises from Ginny and Nicole.

James spoke first "pretty, me." Ginny made a noise of approval and stood up, "you found the one, let's go to lunch." Hermione laughed, changed into her old clothes and walked to the register with Nicole to buy her outfit.

Sitting in the Leaky Cauldron, Hermione had ordered soup and was trying to ignore that Ginny was staring at her.

"Alright," Hermione requested, "why do you keep staring at me?"

Ginny replied "I was just wondering why you are going to so much trouble? I mean, I know that you really liked him in school but I've never seen you gone through this much trouble for anyone."

Hermione smiled and spoke in a tranquil voice, "he and Teodora make me feel complete. I know how odd that sounds because I have only seen them twice but a huge weight lifted when I was with them." Leaning closer to Ginny so she could lower her voice she added, "his hugs make me feel safe."

Ginny sat through the rest of the lunch in silence, Hermione thought that Ginny looked that she was contemplating her words. After lunch was finished, Ginny grabbed James and leaned down to kiss Hermione on the cheek.

"It is James's nap time, I've got to go. I had fun today. Floo me tomorrow." she added with a wink and disapparated away.
