Chapter 25: Honeymoon
AN: I am sorry to those that did not like the last chapter because they did not agree with the way I portrayed Viktor. In all the stories I have read on this site each one of them that contains Viktor makes him Hermione's 'hero'. I wanted to do something different to set this story aside from others. I guess my writing is not everyone's 'cup of tea' as we Brits say. Again I am sorry that you felt the need to un-follow me and place me on a 'do not read work from this author' list. But in my defence, I could've made Viktor out to be a lot worse than I did.
p8efaceharris – I am thinking she will end up with two of the Marauders, but haven't the foggiest about which two. I might just write the story and see what happens in regards to the relationships that happen. Then I'll be just as much as surprised as everyone.

The Weasley twins and Hermione are in the lead by one vote. You've still got until chapter 28 to vote for which story you would like to see first.
The Weasley twins and Hermione or the Marauders and Hermione?
Puddlemere United Stadium - Tuesday 25th August 1998
Puddlemere had won their last match against the Wigtown Wanders and they had just won against the Banchory Bangers. They had a match against Lancashire on Saturday and then three days later was the final, which Puddlemere were set to play in even if they lost against Lancashire.
Hermione was in her office bathroom looking at herself in the mirror. She was nervous. The team were just finishing up with the after game interview. Oliver had given her a list of his sexual fantasies like she asked him to and she was going to attempt to bring one to life in a matter of minutes. She just hoped that she didn't embarrass herself.
It seemed Oliver was quite the exhibitionist, or wanted to be. On his list he had included sex in a public place and the best she was willing to do was the stadium, since it was semi-public. Another of his fantasies included Hermione wearing a certain school uniform and another included her being a fan, so she decided to mingle the three.
She took a deep breath. "It's now or never" she muttered.
She had her hair in low pigtails spilling over her shoulders and she had Puddlemere blue ribbons tied with a bow wrapped around them. She was wearing a very tight white three quarter length sleeved shirt that buttoned up to just above her breasts, leaving the rest open and she had tied a knot in the shirt just above her navel so the skin was on show and you could partially see her phoenix tattoo. Her black lacy bra was clearly seen through the white fabric. She had a red and gold tie under her collar but was left loose and it hung down and rested over the shape of her breasts. She wore a short black pleated skirt that barely covered her and black stockings. Where the stockings ended the skirt began, she wore black lacy boy shorts to match her bra and black five inch closed toe heels. She wore no jewellery except her Wood cuff bracelet and a pair of gold hoop earrings.
"He better appreciate this" she muttered. She focused her magic to help calm her nerves. She heard the team cheering and she knew they had finished with the interview.
With one last look at herself, she cast a disillusionment charm and a silencing charm on her shoes and left her bathroom, then her office and she made her way to the locker rooms.
Hermione waited for a few minutes before she stuck her head in to make sure no one was around.
"That wife of yours is brilliant Wood" Kings said as he walked towards the showers with a towel around his waist.
"Tell me about it" Oliver replied with a laugh and he was only one not in the showers. He turned around and opened his locker. He started to remove his robes and when he took off his shirt, he picked up his broom from the floor, with his shirt still in his other hand.
Hermione removed both the silencing and disillusionment charm and walked into the room careful not to slip on the floor. She fought down the blush.
Oliver turned around at the sound of footsteps and when he did his eyes widened, his jaw hit the floor and he dropped his broom on the floor with a clatter. He didn't say anything, but just stared with his eyes roaming her. Hermione would've took it as a bad sign, but she could see the immediate bulge in his trousers and felt feminine pride fill her and she stopped herself from giggling.
He made a few strangled sounds and she guessed it was him attempting to speak. Hermione stalked forward and pushed down her insecurities.
"Congratulations Mr Wood. You played exceptionally today and you led your team to victory" Hermione said with a smile and she stopped in front of him, almost touching.
Oliver shook his head and finally a wide smile spread across his face, making him look even more irresistible.
"Thank you Miss, it was a team effort" he replied.
"Oh, don't be so modest. You're one of the best keepers in the league, the best in my opinion" she said and she lifted her hand and she trailed her fingers down his shirtless, muscled chest and he shivered and she smiled. "I am your number one fan, and I know you're a busy man, but I was hoping that you could spare a few minutes to give me an autograph"
Oliver grinned. "Do you have any parchment Miss..."
"Wood, and I'm afraid I don't" she conjured a muggle marker pen and handed it to him. "But I was hoping you could sign something else instead" he raised an eyebrow and she lifted her hands up to pull her shirt further apart to give better access to her chest.
It gave him a better view of her laced covered breasts and he gulped before nodding. He removed the lid and signed his name over the top of her breasts and when he reapplied the lid to the marker pen he couldn't help but groan at the sight of his name on her.
Hermione licked her lips.
"Thank you Mr Wood, I really appreciate you taking time to speak with me. I wish there was something I could do to repay you" she said seductively and he groaned.
"I'm sure you could think of something" his eyes locked on her breasts where he had just signed his name. She bit her lip and looked up at him through her eyelashes and he groaned. He couldn't take it anymore.
He wrapped his arms around her and crashed his mouth against hers. He gripped her tightly to him and she breathed in his scent: outdoors, broom polish, mint and sweat.
Hermione pulled away from him and he looked disappointed. She kissed him once more before pulling away. She put his broom in his locker, picked up his shirt and put that in his locker and she closed it. She took Oliver by the hand and walked him into the shower room. There were fourteen cubicles and Hermione led them to the only empty one that had his name on the door. She pushed him inside and closed and locked the door behind them.
She cast the Impervius spell on herself to prevent herself from getting soaked by the water. She then banished Oliver's clothes to his locker leaving him naked and watching her hungrily and she flicked her wand and the water began to fall from the shower head at the correct temperature.
Hermione stepped closer to Oliver under the shower spray and thanks to the charm she cast she stayed dry. She lifted her head and because she was in heels they were relatively the same height.
She kissed his neck. "I must show you my gratitude Mr Wood, I also think you deserve a reward for that impressive win" she breathed huskily against his ear and she smiled when he let out a little whining noise. "There is no silencing charm and your team members are in the same room as us. You must be quiet" she warned before she dropped to her knees, gripped his length and after a few pumps of her hand she slipped her mouth around him and he groaned and leaned against the wall for support.
The more she did it to him, the more confident she became and she was learning what affected him and what didn't. Since the first time she had done this to him she had learned that he like it when she used both her hands and mouth, he liked it when she would tantalisingly drag her teeth across his length and he liked it when she swallowed around him and sucked particularly hard. He didn't like it when she teased for too long and he didn't like it when she would question her actions and second guess herself.
Hermione could hear Oliver's muffled groans and she looked up at him and he was biting his fist and she moaned sending vibrations down his length and he gasped, bucked his hips and his hands moved to her hair.
She could tell he was close and she started moving faster and adding more pressure, she dragged her teeth across him and looked up at him again, when she did his eyes locked onto hers and she felt him stiffen and release in to her mouth and she swallowed. He pulled her up to him and before she could wash her mouth out, his mouth was on her hers.
He spun her and pressed her against the wall before dropping to his knees. He lifted her skirt up and groaned when he saw the stockings and black lace boy shorts.
He slipped her underwear down her legs and she stepped out of it. He lifted her left leg and put it over his shoulder and his head went under her skirt. His mouth quickly latched onto her nub and his fingers traced over her slick folds and he slipped two fingers into her and he pumped them rhythmically. He added a third finger and sucked harder on her nub and she was mewling and whimpering. He tugged gently with his teeth and Hermione found release with a muffled cry as she slapped her hand over her mouth and Oliver continued to lap up her juices.
When she slumped against the wall he stood up pleased with himself and Hermione quickly pulled him to her and kissed him passionately.
He had now recovered and was once more fully erect. Hermione lifted a leg and hooked it over his waist and Oliver took the hint. He lifted her up and pressed her into the wall and she wrapped her legs tightly around his waist. He quickly slipped into her and their moans were muffled by their mouths. Oliver's thrusts we slow and deliberate at first before Hermione purposely clenched around him and then his speed and intensity increased. He pushed her further into the wall and leaned back slightly and he was now hitting her nub deliciously.
Hermione whimpered and mewled and Oliver watched her enraptured as his breath came out in quick pants.
When Hermione's walls clapped around him she leaned forward and sucked at his neck like she always did and her nails raked down his back leaving marks. Oliver released inside of her and muffled their sounds with a kiss.
He held her up, pressing himself into her whilst they came down from their high.
"Best wife ever" Oliver said and Hermione laughed and kissed him, this time languidly. "We are so keeping this outfit by the way" he said when they pulled away for air and she laughed at him.
"Well I thought since you've been working so hard I would take a look at that list you gave me and see what I could do. I've ticked three off in one go"
"Hmm?"
"School girl who is your number one fan, and we are in a semi-public place. Plus the team is around us" and to prove her point they could hear the showers running and voices talking. Luckily the sounds of voices and running water helped to drown out the noises they had been making.
"You are amazing"
She smiled widely at him. "You're not so bad yourself" he laughed at her. He kissed her and then put her back on her feet.
He was soaking and water was dripping down his muscled body and Hermione cocked her head and looked at him happily with a small sigh and he smirked at her. She on the other hand was bone dry, not even her heels were wet.
"Let's get you cleaned up, we have a victory party to get to" she said and then she removed his shampoo and conditioner from the shelf in the cubicle and went about washing his hair and massaging his scalp. She then removed a wash cloth and soap from the shelf in the cubicle and began to thoroughly wash away the fatigue and sweat from the day, and he revelled in the attention she was giving him.
They switched off the water, Hermione accioed a towel and she dried him off and he wrapped the towel around his waist and she slipped her underwear back on. They had long since heard the other showers turn off and the voices disappeared and they deemed it safe to leave.
They walked hand in hand out of the showers and back to the locker room. They hadn't expected the team to still be there, but they were and they were all dressed and talking. When Hermione and Oliver entered the room went quiet and every turned to stare at Hermione.
She heard curses, eyes widened and jaws dropped. She was embarrassed but she fought down the blush after remembering what happened in the shower and reminding herself that it was worth the taunts that they were surely going to get in the future.
"Bloody hell" Malloy said and he was blatantly leering at her and Oliver both found it both amused amusing and annoying, he was stuck in-between the two.
"Hermione!" Thompson said shocked. Some of them looked a little flushed and were shifting from foot to foot and others were too shocked to move.
"Yes, well I have some things I need to pick up from my office" she smiled, kissed Oliver on the cheek and then walked past everyone and out of the room. They followed her and when she was out of sight they turned to Oliver.
"What the hell was that?" Pallie asked stunned.
Oliver's grin gave away exactly what happened. "That was the best wife ever" he walked to his locker and pulled out his clothes and started dressing.
"That was some fantasy of yours wasn't it?" Thompson said now more in control of himself.
"Yeah, actually she combined three"
"You told her your fantasies?" Bishop said disbelievingly.
Oliver grinned again. "She asked me for a list"
"Bloody hell" Wilks muttered.
"Why was your name written across her... well her..." Kings gestured to his chest and Oliver glared at him.
"She asked me to"
The team groaned in unison, but each person for different reasons. "I want one" Wilks said and Oliver smirked.
"Well you're not getting my wife"
Puddlemere United Stadium - Monday 31st August 1998
The league cup final had arrived. Surprisingly in just under two weeks, the Caerphilly Catapults went from fourth place to second place and where now playing against Puddlemere for the cup. The match had been going on for two hours and was fairly even so far with Puddlemere on 310 points and the Catapults on 300.
Hermione gripped the railing tightly as Thompson and the opposing team's seeker were neck and neck with their arms out stretched reaching for the golden snitch. The Catapults had just scored meaning the fate of the game rested on the seeker's shoulders. It was all to play for.
"Come on Thompson" Hermione muttered. "You can do this. It's just like playing catch the levitated golf ball"
Leo was next to her in full out Puddlemere clothing with a jersey on, a cap on and he was waving a scarf in the air and cheering loudly as he jumped up and down. Coach was on the other side of her and Hermione wasn't even sure if he was breathing. And Quaffle was jumping up and barking loudly with his quidditch jersey on.
The commentator's next words had her screaming for joy. "THOMPSON CAUGHT THE SNITCH! PUDDLEMERE WINS THE LEAGUE CUP WITH AN IMPRESSIVE FULL HOUSE AND FOURTEEN CONSECUTIVE WINS AGAINST THEIR OPPONANTS THIS YEAR" the team all flew to the centre of the pitch and they did a big group hug before they shook hands with the Catapults, did a few victory laps and the crowd cheered loudly as the cup was flown onto the pitch and handed to Oliver.
Leo was jumping up and down and screaming and Quaffle was barking. Coach was on the verge of tears as he picked up Hermione and spun and her in circles. When he put her down Quaffle jumped up at him and Coach laughed and scratched his head.
Leo jumped up at Hermione and she laughed and picked him up and she spun him in circles. When she put him down Coach picked Leo up and spun him around and Hermione scratched Quaffle's back.
Oliver was the first to reach the team and Coach in a rare moment hugged him and took the trophy from him. Hermione ran to him and Oliver expecting it caught her when she jumped into his arms and wrapped her legs around his waist.
He laughed as she had tears of joy falling down her face and she kissed him passionately taking his breath away when she pulled back.
He put her down and she hugged the rest of the team and Quaffle bounded over to Oliver and he laughed and scratched at his back. Surprisingly Leo ran to Oliver and flung himself at him. Oliver caught him and was surprised when Leo wrapped his arms around neck and his legs around his waist and he hugged him tightly. Oliver quickly broke out of his stupor and hugged him back laughing.
"You did it Mr Wood! You did it! Your team won!" he said excitedly and Oliver laughed.
Hermione turned to look at the scene and her heart melted when she saw Oliver and Leo together.
The family came over from the family box and Mr and Mrs Wood and Fred and George were there beaming. After ten minutes of talking, they went for the victory interview, then they showered and decided to celebrate out in the clubs. Hermione however had to go home and study for her NEWT's.
"Come on Hermione, you have to come with us. We won the cup!" Thompson said and the team cheered and she laughed.
"I would love to come celebrate with you, but I can't. I have my first NEWT exam in the morning"
"Surely you can spare some time" Bishop said.
"I'm afraid I can't. I have my potions exam followed by my ancient runes exam in the morning. Then after lunch I have my potions practical, followed by my transfiguration practical" they stared at her.
"We'll celebrate at our next win of the season" Pallie said nodding and she laughed at the disbelief on his face.
Wood Apartment - Friday 11th September 1998
Hermione had finished all her NEWT exams and she was glad that the pressure was no longer on her shoulders. She had also attended the Ball at the Ministry celebrating the end of the war the previous night. She and Oliver had gone together along with the rest of the Weasleys and Woods, making the evening slightly more bearable as people gawked and gushed over her. Her friends from Hogwarts had been given special permission to attend the Ball along with some of the Professors and she spent some time with them again. Now that the Ball had been held and Hermione had been awarded the Order of Merlin: First Class and she was a part of history, they could truly put the war behind them.
She and Oliver were now doing some last minute checks before they left for their two week long overdue honeymoon.
The twins were watching Quaffle and Ali for the two weeks they were away, the fish would be fed by Tillie and Thompson was staying at the apartment and promised not to bring anyone back since the wards only allowed him into the apartment and their family.
"Sparrow? You ready yet?" Oliver asked as he walked into their bedroom. "The port key leaves in ten minutes"
"Yeah, won't you tell me where we're going?" she asked.
"Nope"
"But how do I know I packed right?"
"If you haven't got something you need we'll just purchase it when we get there"
"Get where?"
"You'll find out in less than ten minutes" he chuckled. Hermione shrunk down her suitcase and placed it inside her beaded bag along with Oliver's suitcase.
They walked into the living room, made sure everything was locked up. Mrs Weasley and Mrs Wood had been given the key and password to dismantle the new wards Hermione put up around the apartment and when the time came, they took a hold of the plastic bottle and it whisked them away to their destination.
Hawaii
They landed on a white sand beach and Hermione slipped and fell and Oliver laughed at her and helped her up.
"Where are we?"
"We my beautiful wife, are on a private wizarding island, which is an undiscovered Hawaiian island"
"Hawaii?" he nodded with a smile and she looked around.
The temperature was boiling and she could feel herself on the verge of sweating and she had barely been in the sun a minute. She could smell the salt air and she could see the beautiful sky blue ocean. Tall palm trees with coconuts attached to them offered some shade from the scorching sun.
"A private island?" she said.
"The owner rents it out to celebrities. When he heard the name Oliver Wood and Hermione Granger, he was more than willing to rent it out to us. We have it for two weeks. We have access to the town through the floo so we can go shopping, go out to dinner and explore the historic sites and street markets" she smiled at hearing that. "Apparently there is some fascinating wizarding history in Hawaii. There is also a house elf that will be attending to us and he can take us into muggle Hawaii" Oliver said.
"I was right though, minimal clothing" he laughed at her.
"Of course I want you in minimal clothing. But first" he turned her around and she looked at a beautiful white modern beach house not far from the shore line. They walked to it and Oliver opened the door and picked her up and carried her into the building and she laughed when he grinned at her.
They quickly looked around the house. It had four bedrooms, four bathrooms, a large kitchen and dining room and a living room with a fireplace connected to the floor.
Hermione and Oliver unpacked in the master bedroom. It wasn't as big as their bedroom back home but it was a good size. It had a walk in closet, a large king sized bed with two bed side tables and two chests of drawers. It had had light wooden flooring and was decorated in black and gold. They had patio doors that when opened took them to the shore line without having to walk through the house.
They unpacked their things and put them in the walk in closet before they dressed appropriately. Oliver put on a pair of blue swimming trunks and gathered a towel. Hermione was wearing a black bikini, a tan sun hat and a pair of black sunglasses. She grabbed one of her journals from her fifth year, a muggle pen and some sun cream before they both walked out of the doors, into the scorching weather and they sat together on the beach on the towel.
Hermione put the sun cream on her legs and arms and some on her face and them Oliver took it from her and proceeded to massage it into back, neck and shoulders and she was putty in his hands as he worked out the knots from all the stress of her exams.
They swapped and Hermione massaged the sun cream into his neck, shoulders and back before moving to his chest. They didn't get much further as Hermione was soon straddling him and they were kissing passionately. Oliver rolled them over and together they removed the minimal clothing they were wearing and he entered her and they both moaned.
They worked to bring each other to the edge and when they did Oliver collapsed on Hermione and then rolled off dragging her with him. He wasn't expecting her to straddle him again and he groaned at the look on her face as she bit her lip.
"You'll have to give me a few minutes Sparrow" he said panting and she giggled.
"Well we should make the most of the time we have"
"Why?" he asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Because my cycle is due in a few days and you know what that means"
"What?"
"No sex for five to seven days" she laughed when he rolled them over, gripped himself and then plunged back into her. "That was a speedy recovery" she moaned.
"Like you said, we have to make the most of it" and then he started moving inside of her and he made sure to hit all of her weak spots until she was sobbing and begging for release. He rolled them and she took control and he watched her enraptured as she moved over him and he moved into her from below her.
When they found their release Oliver waited a few minutes before getting up with Hermione wrapped around him and walking towards the ocean.
It wasn't as cold as he was expecting with sun bearing down on the water.
They swam around together laughing, joking and teasing before they found each other in the water and had sex once more.
"There's another first" Oliver spoke as they clung to each other in the water and breathing heavily.
"What?" Hermione asked. It never ceased to amaze him how quick her recovery period was and he shook his head.
"First honeymoon. First sex on beach, first sex in the ocean and soon it will be first sex against a palm tree" she laughed at his pleased expression.
"I thought we don't have sex" she teased.
"We don't. We make love" he kissed her languidly and she sighed happily.
"I love you" Hermione said against his lips.
"And I love you"
Hawaii - Saturday 19th September 1998
It was Hermione's nineteenth birthday and Oliver had planned the whole day out for them. True to Hermione's word, three days after they arrived Hermione's period started and so she and Oliver hadn't had sex since, but that didn't mean Hermione didn't give Oliver the release she wanted him to have. She loved being able to make him putty in her hands.
Hermione had woken to the sight of her husband beaming widely at her and he proceeded to shower her with compliments, and breakfast in bed -which he took no part in making for fear of poisoning Hermione and he left it to the house elf- and he sang Happy Birthday loudly and badly resulting in Hermione laughing hysterically and falling off the side of the bed, which they both laughed at.
He then kissed her and gave her the birthday gifts he bought her. The first one was a brand new broom, so that he could teach her to fly on her own and he promised her it was the safest model and he had a Charms Master cast protective spells over it. The second gift was magnificently beautiful and expensive. When Hermione opened the box it showed a silver chain with a large tanzanite stone as the pendant. There was silver warped behind the large precious gemstone that looked like leaves and they had diamonds embedded in the silver. The necklace looked to have a beautiful flower for the pendant with the precious stones adding colour and sparkle to it.
Hermione gushed over how beautiful it was and pleaded with him to take it back but he smiled and refused and she kissed him thoroughly as a thank you leaving him breathless.
She had noticed a pattern. Whenever Oliver bought her jewellery it always contained tanzanite. When she asked him about it he replied with.
"Tanzanite is one of the most precious and rarest gemstones in the world. And you are a one of a kind. Tanzanite is the closest I can get to getting you a one of a kind piece of jewellery, that's why I have them custom made, so they are a one of a kind. I don't care for the cost because you're worth it. You're worth every galleon I spent having it made" she smiled at him and kissed him.
They were walking along a muggle town in Hawaii hand in hand. Hermione was wearing a pink lace and chiffon playsuit with thin straps and it fell at her mid thigh. She had thrown her hair up in a messy bun since it was too warm to leave it down and she wore a pair of black heeled ankle boots. She wore the necklace Oliver bought her for her birthday and her Wood family cuff bracelet. She wasn't wearing any glamours or a cover up so all her scars and tattoos were on display.
Oliver had on a pair of clean white trainers, blue knee length shorts and he was shirtless and carrying his shirt in the hand that wasn't holding Hermione's. It's fair to say the two received many second glances and stares as they walked down the market oblivious to anyone but themselves. The beauty with the scars and the handsome muscular man, anyone who looked at them could see they were in love by the way they looked at each other.
They had chosen the muggle market because no one knew them there. They weren't famous celebrities; they were a couple on their honeymoon.
After walking the market twice and purchasing several items for themselves and their family members Oliver took Hermione into a retro diner where they ordered their food and Oliver tried a milkshake for the first time.
After lunch they visited another muggle town before heading back to the house. They had dinner on the beach and laid snuggled together. Oliver took Hermione flying over the island so they could see more and she was less hesitant getting on the broom which pleased him. They noticed a large jungle and a beautiful waterfall and decided that they would explore the island more.
When they were back on the ground Hermione decided to try and teach Oliver how to cast a patronus. They had first started lessons a few days after she moved in and so far he had managed a wisp of smoke, but it had not yet taken a form.
"You have to believe you can do it" Hermione said.
"I'm trying Sparrow" he said frustrated and he said the spell once more.
"No, stop. You don't believe you can do it, but you can. You made Captain of Puddlemere. You help leave your team to victory week after week. You won the league cup. You punched Viktor Bloody Krum in the face" she said and he cracked a smile at that. "I love you and I believe in you. You should believe in yourself. Look at everything you have accomplished. Now try again. Close your eyes, find your happy place, think happy thoughts and focus"
She watched him close his eyes and he took deep breaths. A smile spread across his face and he lifted his wand.
"Expecto Patronum" he said and a blue wisp of smoke poured out of the tip of his wand. Hermione smiled.
"Keep concentrating Oliver, you've almost got it" she said encouragingly and the smoke began to take shape. "Almost there Oliver, it's taking shape" Hermione watched and waited and then an animal started running around in the air.
Hermione started laughing and cheering and Oliver opened his eyes to see a cheetah circling in the air and he stared shocked before he started laughing.
"The cheetah; it symbolises determination, passion, protection, survival, adaptability and focus" she beamed.
He pulled her to him and kissed her.
"You're now part of the patronus family" she smiled and he raised an eyebrow. "Everyone but Mrs Weasley, Percy and Fleur can cast a patronus"
"What are theirs then?"
"Fred is a coyote, George is a hyena, Mr Weasley is a weasel, Bill is a griffin and Charlie is a Eastern dragon" Hermione said.
"Could the others cast the patronus?"
"Harry is a stag, Ginny a horse and Ron is a Jack Russell terrier"
"I really want to ravish you right now"
"And I really want you to do that, but I feel icky" he chuckled at her.
Wood Apartment – Sunday 27th September 1998
Two weeks had passed and they had just landed in their apartment.
"It's good to be home" Hermione said and Oliver beamed.
"YOU'RE BACK!" they turned to see Thompson rushing towards them and he picked Hermione up and spun her in circles and she laughed and he put her put her down. "I am so glad you're back, I don't know how you lived here on your own. It's so boring" they laughed at him. "Did you have to steal her away for two weeks?"
"I wanted it to be longer but Hermione said she'd miss Quaffle and our family" Oliver said and Thompson laughed.
"Oh, I have your mail here" Thompson walked to the kitchen and walked back to Hermione and Oliver with two piles of mail.
Hermione went through hers and found the letter she was looking for. She dropped the others on the floor and ripped open the letter in her hand.
Thompson and Oliver watched her confused. Her eyes scanned the parchment.
"All O's" she cried and Oliver started laughing and hugged her tightly and Thompson stared at her in awe.
"How many NEWT's did you take?" he asked.
"Twelve" Hermione replied and she laughed at the disbelief on his face. "Well I want to go and pick Quaffle and Ali up and see the family. Tell them the news. We got you a gift but we'll give it to you later" she said smiling. "Oh, I need to have a meeting with my editor now that I'm back. I've finished all my journals and they're ready to be printed and published" Hermione grinned. "My deadline was November"
"And you've finished in September, what a surprise" Thompson said sarcastically and Oliver laughed when Hermione slapped him over the back of the head.
"When you're done being bitchy, we have a surprise party to get to"
Oliver and Thompson stared at her.
"What do you mean?" they asked quickly and Hermione laughed.
"You don't seriously think that I didn't know? My birthday landed on our honeymoon, of course our family was going to throw a party when I got back so they could give me my presents and see me. I also know the team is invited" they stared at her and she laughed. "Let's go"
