Chapter 29: The Traitorous Trio Return
AN: Jmcy – I hope it is nothing too serious. I will try and post as many chapters as possible before you have to go into hospital. This story only has 3-4 chapters left before I start posting the next fanfic.
AngelinaTheCreep – I am glad to hear you like the changes I have made to Hermione's character.
omnomnom2014 - 2 days? Seriously? Wow, your eyes must be hurting after that. That is some serious dedication. I think I'll have to work your name into the story somehow for that.
kdh1992 – I am incredibly pleased to know that you love the story so much. I try unbelievably hard to get chapters written and posted within three days whilst I have other commitments, but I will always find a way to make time to write and post chapters for you all. It feels good to know that my hard work is appreciated. I agree that Hermione and Oliver are a brilliant pairing. Unfortunately Oliver Wood wasn't a huge character in the books and I think he should've been. I mean have you seen him? Don't even get me started! We'll be here all day, anyway thank you for reviewing.
HeatherLynn90 - I am speechless. I can't believe you made an account just so you could review. Thank you for that, I had a huge smile on my face when I read your review and my parents just looked at me like I was weird. I blame you -just kidding- haha.
bookslove93 – Is your heart okay?
Silverrawrs – sorry for all the tears shed.
Thank you to everyone that reviewed and I am in such a good mood today it is unbelievable. Bought myself some new Harry Potter pajamas, I beat out one hundred applicants at a nursery to train to become a nursery nurse and I officially start in September –although I have been working at said nursery since February- and I bought myself some Pringles and magic stars. My mood today is beyond ecstatic and your reviews made it even better.
So, the vote... I tallied all votes from you reviews and PM's...
The Weasley Twins – 53
The Marauders – 54
As you can see, it was an incredibly close vote but the Marauders won by one vote. Don't worry to those who would like to see the Weasley twins first, I will still be posting that fanfic after the Marauders is complete.
I have also had a request to do another Hermione and Oliver fanfic. I won't promise anything, but I will play around with some ideas and see if I can come up with something that may work. If so I will try and develop the plot.
I have also had a request for a Draco/another character/Hermione pairing. I have a few ideas that may work, so again, I will see what I can come up with and see if it is usable.
The summary for the winning fanfic:
A Second Change Through Time
Summary: What if Hermione was given a second chance to save the world? What if Lily Potter wasn't the one to protect Harry from the killing curse? It's the time of the first war. It's at its peak and the dark side is winning. But lookout Voldemort because there is someone coming and she is out for your blood.
Here's what you've been waiting for... The Traitorous Trio Returns... (cue dramatic music)
Thursday 24th December 1998
Harry, Ron and Ginny had spent almost eight months travelling the world. Sometimes they went muggle and used trains, buses and coaches and they once used an aeroplane -but never again after Ron and Ginny's reaction- and sometimes they apparated. They had stuck to the muggle world were Harry was unknown and they could be regular tourists without anyone recognising them. They had been all over Europe, South Africa, America and Australia. Sometimes they stayed in one place for a few days, sometimes a week and if they liked it there they stayed for a few weeks before moving onto the next place.
They had left the wizarding world behind, along with the aftermath of the war and their family. Harry had removed more than enough galleons to travel for five years from his vault and changed it over into muggle money and he had taken one of Hermione's spare bags that had the undetectable extension charm on and he put all the money in there. And they all carried a duffle bag each with their clothing and belongings shrunken down in them.
They had forgotten about their family, about the people they left behind. Harry and Ginny had been dating for the last eight months and Ron seemed to sleep with anyone he picked up in a bar. When they first left Britain Ron had told Harry and Ginny that he and Hermione were dating and they were pleased to hear that they were finally together. The first time Ron had slept with a random stranger Harry pulled him aside and proceeded to yell at him for cheating on Hermione. Ron had somehow convinced Harry that Hermione would understand that he had needs and Harry let the subject drop after that and he never brought it up again.
Now they were in India and it was Christmas Eve. Harry missed the Weasleys and he missed Hermione. He wanted to know how she was coping. He felt guilty for leaving her behind but he knew she could handle the spotlight better than he could. He just wanted to be free of people's expectations. He hadn't thought of leaving and travelling, that was Ginny's idea and Ron supported her. He wondered how the Weasleys were dealing, he assumed Fred had died and knew George would be taking it the hardest. They should've stayed until after Fred's funeral instead of running away, but he was a coward. He couldn't face the death of his friends, of his loved ones or the people that fought for him and with him. He just couldn't. So that night he left, taking Ginny and Ron with him.
"I want to go back" Harry stated randomly as they were sitting by a waterfall eating lunch. Ron and Ginny looked up at him. They knew what he meant.
"Why?" they asked quickly.
"It's Christmas Eve; I want to go back for Christmas. I miss everyone and we haven't contacted them. The least we can do is go back and tell them that we are fine. We can tell them about our travelling. Think of the look on everyone's faces when they see us. Think about how happy Hermione will be Ron" Harry spoke and he sighed. "I wonder if she got a job at the Ministry"
After some discussion they all agreed to head back to England the next day.
The Burrow - Friday 25th December 1998
They had been apparating all morning, taking short breaks until they finally reached England. They apparated to the apparition point and walked towards the Burrow. They could see several small dots in the air and Harry immediately recognised them as people on brooms and he couldn't help but smile, some things would never change at the Burrow.
He wondered what he would find when they got there. What he did not expect to find was Hermione held tightly to someone's chest with their arms wrapped around each other, with her tongue down his throat. He couldn't see who the person was, but he was wearing what was unmistakably a Weasley jumper.
"WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING?" Harry jumped at Ron's outburst.
Hermione and the man pulled away and turned to look at them and her mouth dropped open and her eyes widened. Harry had the same reaction when he saw who Hermione had been kissing. Oliver Wood, his old quidditch captain.
"Oh my..." Hermione whispered.
At that moment Leo flew down to the ground and hopped off his broom laughing and he ran over to Hermione and Oliver.
"Mum, dad, Uncle Charlie said that I can stay with him in Romania for a few days. Can I go? Please" he asked oblivious to the tension around him as well as the three people staring at him.
Harry's eyes widened even further. 'Mum? Dad? Uncle Charlie?'
"Leo, if you want to go with Uncle Charlie you can, but not today. When he goes back to Romania. Why don't you go inside of get some hot chocolate from your gran?" Oliver spoke not taking his eyes off the trio in front of him. He wanted Leo out of the way before anything happened. "Take your WindRider with you; otherwise the twins will have a joy ride"
Leo laughed. "Thanks dad, mum" he hugged them around the waist and ran to the Burrow.
"I ASKED YOU A FUCKKING QUESTION" Ron snarled and he dropped his duffle bag to the floor. "YOU SLUT, YOU'RE CHEATING ON ME"
A look of complete anger twisted her usually kind features. Her hair started sparking and her fists clenched.
The shouting was heard from the air and everyone flew down and stared in shock, and Mr and Mrs Weasley came out of the Burrow followed by Mr and Mrs Wood and Percy and Audrey and they all stared wide eyed and they didn't move.
"How dare you?" she said in a dangerous tone and Oliver watched Hermione carefully. If things got too out of hand he would step in, he didn't want Hermione or the twins getting stressed. "We are not dating; you stuck your tongue down my throat at the Final Battle. I never wanted that to happen. I am not now, have ever and I will never date you. You left like a coward. You have no idea what you left behind, what we had to put up with"
"HOW LONG DID YOU WAIT UNTIL YOU SLEPT WITH HIM YOU SLAG?" Ron roared and Oliver tried to control his anger, but failed.
He stepped forward and punched Ron across the jaw and he fell to the floor. Oliver heard some clapping and whistling and he turned his head to see that it was the twins and they gave him a thumbs up and continued clapping and cheering. He had to bite the inside of his mouth to stop himself from laughing and he turned back to Ron.
"I'd be more careful with how you speak about my wife if I were you" Oliver said coldly and three sets of eyes widened. Hermione touched his hand and he threaded his fingers through hers and stepped back. That's when Harry noticed the wedding rings on their left hands. Everyone flocked to their sides.
"You're alive" Ginny whispered looking at Fred who glared at his sister along with George and they walked forward and stood on either side of Hermione and Oliver.
"Evidently" the twins spoke frostily.
"Of course you wouldn't know that because you left the night I was taken into hospital on my death bed"
Ron started laughing and stood up. "How did she get you?" he asked looking at Oliver. "Did she prance around in tight clothing? I always knew she was a galleon digging whore. Did she put out? I bet she doesn't anymore though"
This time it was Fred that stepped forward and he punched Ron in the face and when he fell to the floor George stepped forward and kicked him in the stomach. Mrs Weasley gasped and went to move forward, but Mr Weasley stopped her and shook his head at her. He knew that they needed to get it out of their system.
They had hurt everyone when they left, but Hermione was hurt the most. Hermione had become a part of the twins and when you hurt one of them, all of them hurt. Fred and George stepped back into place feeling a lot better.
"She sleeping with you as well isn't she?" he sneered.
This time it was Charlie that stepped forward and he roughly picked Ron up by his jacket and he looked him dead in the eye, glaring at him before he pushed Ron away and he stumbled back and Ginny caught him.
"Actually you dumb prick" Charlie spoke. "Hermione was already wealthy before she married our brother in law here" Charlie clapped Oliver on the shoulder.
"She's not family" Ron sneered.
"She's our sister" the twins, Percy, Bill and Charlie spoke instantly.
"I'M YOUR SISTER" Ginny screeched.
"No you're not. Hermione is our sister. You're just someone who abandoned us when we needed you. Hermione stayed" Fred said furiously.
"She took care of us. Of Fred when he was on his death bed" George spoke callously.
Harry hadn't said a word since they arrived. He was trying to take in everything that had changed. Ron and Hermione had never been together despite what Ron led him to believe. Hermione was married to Oliver Wood and apparently had a child even though he couldn't understand how since the child had looked to be half their age and he had only been gone eight months. They were all gathered around Hermione and Oliver, the twins seemed the most protective. The only person that looked remotely happy to see them was Mrs Weasley but she was being held back by a grim Mr Weasley. He noticed a couple which he suspected to be Oliver's parents, in the crowd.
"What iz going on out here?" they looked towards the Burrow to see a heavily pregnant Fleur waddling towards them with the boy they had seen earlier, holding her hand and a large, fluffy dog walking beside them protectively. The trio's eyes widened.
Fleur swore. Luckily it was in French so Leo didn't understand what she had said. They reached them and Leo stood in front of Fred, and he held Hermione's hand. Fleur stood in front of Bill and he wrapped his arms around her and rested his hand on her swollen stomach.
"Mum, are you alright? Who are these people?" he asked confused and he looked up at the three people staring at them. His eyes widened when he recognised Harry Potter, and he understood that the other two were his Uncle Ron and Aunt Ginny.
"I'm fine Leo" Hermione said starting to calm down. "They are no one. Why don't you take Quaffle and go and pack your things? We're going home, send Boo and Ali home" Leo didn't argue with her, it didn't take a genius to figure out something bad had happened and Hermione was upset. Especially since his uncles had told him about Harry, Ron and Ginny leaving and how they hurt everyone, but most of all his mum.
"Okay mum, I'll be in my room. Let's go Quaffle" Quaffle looked up at Hermione and she nodded. Quaffle turned around and snarled at the trio and they took a step back causing the twins to smirk. Leo and Quaffle then ran back to the Burrow together.
"You have no right to question me or anyone else you worthless pile of shite" she said evenly. "I do not owe an explanation to any of you" she looked at Harry as he hadn't spoken since arriving. "You left me and your family. We didn't know where you were or even if you were alive. But I'm guessing you where in the muggle world seeing as you have no idea of all that has happened in this world. If you did you would know that Fred was in a coma for two weeks. You would know that I married a kind and caring man that I love in July. You would know that Percy married a wonderful woman in August" the trio's eyes went to Percy and the woman stood beside him. "You would know that Fleur and Bill are due to become parents to a baby girl in February. You would know that the twins have opened a second shop up in Hogsmeade for the Hogwarts students. You gave that up for your own selfishness. I never want to see you again"
She turned and walked away and Oliver and the twins followed her. She stopped and turned around.
"By the way Ronald, I was a virgin when I married Oliver" she made sure to put the emphasis on 'was'.
"Whoa, whoa" the twins covered their ears and Oliver rolled his eyes at them.
"Hermione didn't have to do anything to get my attention" Oliver spoke up.
"That's because of the marriage law" Bill pointed out amused.
"Marriage law?" Ron said and then he started laughing. "That's why you married her? Because you were forced to? I feel sorry for you mate, she's not exactly a looker and I bet she's a right frigid cow. Does she make you sleep in the living room?"
Oliver was about to step forward and teach Ron a lesson but he stopped and stared instead. Ron stopped laughing and started screaming when he was hit with the Bat Bogey hex, followed by a sticking charm. Everyone looked at Hermione, but she was looking at Fleur and smiling proudly. They turned to look at her shocked and they started laughing. She cancelled the spells.
"Zat is enough you horrible little boy" she made sure to put emphasis on 'little boy'. "Hermione and Oliver got married because zey love each ozher. Everyone has witnessed it. Zey are perfect for each ozher and nozing you say will change zat fact. Ze marriage law brought zem togethzer, but zey married on zer own"
She waddled over to Hermione and Oliver and lifted their sleeves up and then lifted their left wrists up for them to see the golden band around their wrists shining proudly. Ginny and Ron's eyes widened. Harry had no idea what was happening but judging by the reaction from Ron and Ginny it was something important.
"You can say what you want about zem, you can call Hermione a slut and Oliver an idiot. But zey are meant to be togethzer. You are just an inzignificant little child. Hermione and I have become very close and I love her like a zister, she does not dezerve your terrible treatment of her. She does not dezerve to have hideous people like you in her life" Fleur said and Hermione started crying and she hugged Fleur and they chuckled as Fleur started crying too.
"Hormones" they all said knowingly and with smiles, whilst they rolled their eyes good naturedly.
"Let's go Cherie, we can continue our feztivities at your apartment where certain people will not be" she pointedly looked at Ron, Ginny and Harry. Bill approached them and they started to walk away towards the Burrow. Mr and Mrs Wood followed them along with Charlie. Percy looked at the trio and then he and Audrey turned to walk away.
"Not you too Perce, she's turned you all against us" Ron said angrily. Percy stopped and turned to look at the trio.
"You turned us against you when you left. You betrayed this family, worst than I did during the war. You have no idea what Hermione's been through" he said with an uncharacteristically angry tone. "Do you know what happened to Hermione's parents?"
"They're in the muggle world" Ron replied instantly and smirking thinking he got the answer right.
"Wrong, she obliviated them during Christmas her sixth year and she sent them to Australia. They were found by Death Eaters. They were tortured and slaughtered, she received word about their deaths before Bill's wedding" Ron's face dropped and Harry went pale. "Did you know that in third year she took the brunt of Lupin's attack and as a result she has lupine traits and is affected by the full moon? Did you know that Hermione was surviving on four hours of sleep because she had nightmares every night? What about that she starved herself when you were on the run so that the two of you could eat? She was almost skin and bones after the war. What about that she was tortured for hours when you were captured by snatchers and taken to Malfoy Manor? She was almost raped multiple times by Death Eaters. Bellatrix carved into her skin and now she has a scar saying 'mudblood' on her arm and because it was done with a cursed blade it can't be removed or glamoured without the aid of makeup. What about the fact that she was distraught when she had to tell Oliver that she may never be able to give him children because her body has been through too much?"
Percy deliberately left out the fact that she was pregnant just to add to the guilt.
"After Fred got out of the hospital she moved in with the twins. They spent every day and night together. They were inseparable and she became a part of them, just as they became a part of her. They were up every night comforting her when her screams woke them up because she was having a nightmare. They were keeping a diary of her weight to make sure that she was gaining weight and they watched her eat every meal time. They were there when she cried because of you. When Hermione couldn't leave the flat without being ambushed by the public or reporters, Fred and George were with her, protecting her. Face it, you don't have a part in her life anymore. The twins filled the gap in her heart and she's better with them than she ever was with you. They protect her rather than the other way around, like she did with you. Hermione is too kind and loyal for her own good; you caused all her suffering because you dragged her through it. We picked up the pieces when you left and you are not welcome in her life. She is happy with her family, with her husband and with her son. She moved on, now leave her alone" Mr Weasley was staring at Percy in pride, Audrey love and Mrs Weasley shock.
Percy turned around and walked to the Burrow. By the time they got there everyone was gone so they flooed to where they knew everyone would be.
Wood Apartment
They stepped out of the floo and into the apartment. Judging by the chatter everyone was in the kitchen. When they entered the table had been enlarged and everyone was sat at the table except Leo and Quaffle was on the balcony.
The twins, Charlie, Bill, Oliver and Mr Wood all had a muggle beer in hand, and Mrs Wood a glass of wine, whilst Fleur and Hermione looked longingly at the alcohol, but couldn't have any because they were pregnant and it caused Percy to chuckle.
They looked up at them as they walked in and a glass of wine was poured for Audrey and a muggle beer was handed to Percy and they sat down at the table.
"Where's Leo?" Percy asked.
"In his room deciding what to take to Romania" Oliver answered and they laughed.
"What happened?" Hermione asked.
"I put them straight" Percy said and everyone raised an eyebrow, but Hermione got up and hugged him tightly.
"Thank you" she said and Percy smiled at her.
"You should've seen him, it was amazing" Audrey said and Percy's ears turned pink and everyone started teasing him.
They moved into the living room and took seats. An hour later and Bill and Fleur were sat together on the couch with Quaffle asleep and resting his head on Fleur's stomach protectively. Mr and Mrs Wood and Percy and Audrey were sat on the corner suite. The twins, Leo and Charlie were sat in the middle of the seating area on the floor surrounding the glass table playing a muggle board game and Hermione and Oliver were sat on the arm chair, with Hermione on Oliver's lap and her feet hanging over the arm rest.
Mr and Mrs Weasley flooed into the apartment and everyone turned to them.
"You forgave them didn't you?" Hermione said knowingly. They both nodded.
"They're staying in their rooms. Hermione dear, if you just..."
"No, Maji. Don't even go there. I am not forgiving them for abandoning us" Hermione said.
"Neither are we" the twins spoke with a hardness to their tone.
"But..."
"No" Hermione, Fred and George spoke cutting her off.
"It's their choice Molly. If I weren't their father I likely wouldn't forgive them either" Mr Weasley spoke honestly. She looked at everyone else and they shook their heads and she sighed and they sat down on the corner suite.
"Well, Ron was reacquainted with the wooden spoon like I promised" Mrs Weasley said and everyone chuckled.
"I hope they stick around" George said and everyone looked at him confused.
"Do you know how many products we've designed specifically to be tested on them?" Fred explained and they laughed, their confusion melting.
"How are you doing Hermione?" Mr Wood asked. "The twins alright, not too stressed?"
"We're fine, I really wish I could have a drink though" she said sadly and they laughed at her.
Unknown to them three people had waited to hear Mr and Mrs Weasley call out the address of Hermione's residence and they waited a short while and they flooed in. No one noticed because they were too busy laughing.
When they stepped out of the floo their eyes widened in shock at the size of the living area, before they landed on the walls covered in wizarding photographs, but some muggle photographs too. There were photos of Hermione and Oliver, photos of the family, photos from the wedding including Quaffle dressed in his suit, photos of Leo, photos of Hermione and the team, there was a photo of Quaffle in his Wood jersey and there was a large photo frame Hermione had moved next to Oliver's Puddlemere quidditch jersey with a photo of the team after the league win, plus a framed copy of the newspaper on Puddlemere winning the league. Hermione had also put up photos from Leo's birthday party and the photos of him with underpants on his head.
That's when Harry realised that he had truly missed out on so much of Hermione's life and he had only been gone eight months. There were no photos of him, Ron or Ginny. Every photo seemed to be of after the war and after Hermione met Oliver.
'Maybe leaving wasn't the best decision I've made' he thought sadly. And then their heads snapped up to the group of people when they heard the next sentence.
"I am not having you get our boys drunk before they're even born" Oliver said.
"Could be girls. Hell, could have one of each"
"They're boys" Oliver said sure of himself and Hermione rolled her eyes. Oliver leaned down and lifted Hermione's jumper up to reveal some of her stomach. "I'll stick up for you lads, I know you're boys even if your mum doesn't want to admit that your dad's right" he said and everyone laughed.
He kissed her stomach before blowing raspberries against her stomach and she giggled and wiggled furiously, trying to get him to stop but he didn't let up and her laughter grew louder. The laughter stopped when Leo spoke up.
"Mum, dad, those people are here" he said and everyone's head snapped up to them. The twins, Charlie, Bill and Percy quickly stood up and Oliver lifted Hermione off him and stood up as well and they all stared at the intruders.
"How the hell did they get in here?" Fred said angrily.
"The floo is keyed to allow the team, Woods and Weasleys into the apartment and Harry was accompanied by two Weasleys, whether I intended to allow them access or not, they were able to get in because they share your DNA" Hermione explained looking at the trio and not backing down. "I'll be putting up tighter security from now on"
"Why are you here?" Oliver asked glaring at Ron. "You have no right to be in my home"
"I HAVE JUST AS MUCH RIGHT AS ANYONE" Ron bellowed.
Quaffle woke up with a start and when he noticed the trio and the tension in the room he stood up, jumped off the couch and walked over to Hermione and Oliver growling at Ron. The twins smirked when they saw him; Ginny and Harry take a step back and look at Quaffle fearfully.
"Quaffle" Hermione said softly and he looked at her and when she shook her head he stopped growling.
"Leo, why don't you take Quaffle out onto the balcony and go and feed Ali and Boo, they should arrive any minute now"
"Okay" he got up and with Quaffle walked out onto the balcony and closed the door behind him.
"Shouldn't he have a coat on?" Fleur commented.
"No" Oliver and Hermione said.
"The balcony is warded. The weather doesn't affect the balcony, so it's the same temperature as it is in here" Fleur nodded at Oliver and then everyone turned back to the trio.
"As for you, you have no right being in my home. You weren't invited here, I thought we made it clear when we left that we didn't want to see you, any of you"
"Hermione..." Harry spoke for the first time since she saw him.
"No Harry, don't go there with me. My magic is unstable at the moment"
"What because you're pregnant?" Ginny sneered.
"Is that how you trapped Wood in the marriage?" Ron snarled.
Hermione put both her hands up and Ron and Ginny flew backwards and slammed against the wall on opposite sides of the door. Mrs Weasley gasped, everyone's eyes widened in shock and Oliver smiled proudly.
"Don't test me you traitorous bastards" Hermione said frostily.
At that point the balcony door opened and Leo walked in with Quaffle.
"Mum, Boo and Ali are back from gran and grandads, I've fed them and they're sleeping now"
"Thank you Leo. Why don't you go and see Thompson? I think he said something about having a gift for you" Hermione spoke smiling kindly.
"Okay, I'll go and see Uncle Thompson. Is Aunt Katie with him?" he asked grinning.
"I think so, do you remember what floor he's on. The pass code to gain access to the floor?"
"Yes mum, he's on the eighteenth floor, and dad told me all the pass codes and I remember them"
"You told him all the pass codes?" Hermione raised an eyebrow and Oliver nodded grinning.
"Yeah, he's going to inherit this place some day, may as well teach him whilst he's young"
"You know the pass codes?" the twins asked Leo with a gleam in their eyes and Leo nodded happily.
"Cor, Fred, imagine the pranks we could play on the tenants" George said with a mischievous smile.
"Oh don't forget Thompson and Katie" Fred added with an equally mischievous grin.
They turned to look at Leo. "Tell us the pass codes o'bestest nephew in the world" they spoke together.
"NO!" Hermione and Oliver yelled when Leo opened his mouth and everyone burst out laughing.
"Leo, don't ever tell anyone the pass codes" Hermione said and he nodded. "Okay then, off you go. Be careful and remember to knock"
"I'll be back before bed" they nodded and he headed to the door. He used the key to open the door and he closed it behind him when he left. Hermione's attention went back to Ginny and Ron who were glaring at her murderously and still stuck to the wall. Harry was stood off to the side watching the whole thing and he felt confused and guilty.
"Now where was I? Oh, I remember. I married Oliver in July, our twins were conceived in October, do the math you idiot" Hermione looked at Ron. "And you're one to talk, you lost your virginity to the Gryffindor Queen of sluts" she said. Ron blushed and she heard the boys in the room snigger whilst the women gasped. "As for you Ginevra, the things I know about you would put Lavender Brown to shame" she said and Ginny looked at her defiantly.
"You know nothing about me you frigid bitch" she screeched.
Hermione smiled. "I didn't lose my virginity until my wedding night, you however..." she trailed off.
"What does she mean?" Mrs Weasley said quickly.
"Nothing mum, she's a lying cow"
Hermione snorted. "I'm as honest as they come"
"What did she mean Hermione?" Mrs Weasley asked walking to her side.
"You tell her anything and you will live to regret it" Ginny sneered.
"Well I wasn't going to say anything, but now..." she smiled sweetly and then looked at Mrs Weasley. "Did you know that Ginevra here lost her virginity when she was fifteen to Blaise Zabini in the broom shed at Hogwarts?"
"WHAT?" several people yelled including Harry.
"You told me I was your first" Harry spoke looking at Ginny like he didn't know who she was.
Hermione started laughing and they all looked at her with raised eyebrows.
"Sorry" she said taking a calming breath. "No. she lost it Zabini, then she tried to convince him she was pregnant so that she could trap him in a marriage like they did in the 1800's and early 1900's. Of course Zabini had cast a contraception charm beforehand, so that plan back fired. Then she tried to proposition Malfoy but he shot her down. Then she slept with Dean and then Cormac McLaggen, then there was Michael Corner, and finally there was someone else before Harry, but I can't remember his name" Hermione said and everyone was staring at her before turning to look at Ginny who looked murderous.
"Seriously?" Harry choked out. "Zabini and Malfoy? How do you know this?" Harry asked Hermione looking betrayed.
"They told me, we're sort of friends now" she shrugged and then she sat down on the corner suite because her feet were killing her and turned and rested her head on the back of the corner suite so she could see those in front of her.
"Now..." she was cut off when three owls flew into the room through the open balcony door and dropped three letters on the floor and they flew back out.
Hermione shared a look with Oliver.
"Ministry owls" Hermione spoke.
