Darkness, It was all Hermione could and him.
Hermione woke up far earlier than usual that morning, it was barely four in the morning and yet she felt refreshed. After her morning ritual of showering and trying to tame her unruly hair, she was ready to take on the day. She was joining the Order at the Headquarters today. Bustling with excitement, she prepared her tea and grabbed her copy of Olde and Forgotten Bewitchments and Charmes. She was of firm belief that there is no inherently good or bad magic and texts like this one further confirmed her belief. Hermione soon got lost in her reading and didn't pay attention to the world around her until her familiar Croohshanks jumped in her lap. "Crooks! You made my spill tea everywhere." The halfkneazle's actions caused her to break concentration and realize it was getting close to 07:00.
Soon after she could her her parents moving around their room and getting ready for the day. David and Jean Granger came down to the family room, unsurprised to see their daughter with a book this early in the morning.
"Good morning darling, slept well?" Her mother asked with a didn't expect her father to speak to her without his morning coffee. He was very grouchy before it. "Morning, pretty well. Did you get a good nights sleep?" Jean answered affirmatively and moved to grab her own cup of coffee.
"Ready to join your friends?" her father spoke for the first time this morning. "Yes daddy, I am excited, I missed them terribly." David smiled and told his daughter to grab her belongings, they would be driving her to Grimmauld Place.
After getting her trunk, filled to the brim even with the extension charm, Hermione was ready to go.
Little did she know, this visit would change her life in the most curious ways.
