Hope you all enjoy.
A week went by with no bad occurrences. It seemed the accidents had abruptly stopped. Hermione was relieved until Luna commented that it was always silent before the storm. Meanwhile Oliver had been especially busy as there the quidditch season was starting really soon. Actually today they would all be going to the very first quidditch game of the season. It was the Holy Head Harpies versus the Chudley Cannons. It was the second biggest quidditch game after the Cup. Practically everyone would be there.
Ginny was playing so Harry and the whole Weasley clan was coming. Ron of course would be the only one wearing the orange for the Cannons. for Oliver met the two girls and Hermione's guards at the entrance of the stadium.
Hermione was wearing a pretty green dress that showed her figure. It had a pinkish purple dresses on it. Daisy wore a cute white cocktail dress that had splashes of color, while Luna wore an outrageously traffic cone orange colored long sleeved dress, brown boots, and a dark green scarf. Neville wore a pair of pants and a grey shirt. He looked really austere compared to his girlfriend. Not that it was a bad thing.
Oliver was a bit baffled at the outfit but he guessed she didn't want to cheer for only one.
"You excited?" Hermione asked as she approached.
"Of course it's the first game of the season." Oliver said grinning ruefully at her. "I can see which team you're cheering for."
"Ginny would hex me if I cheered for the Cannons. Plus orange doesn't really work for me despite Ron's persuasions."
"I see. So is everyone ready?"
The four of them headed to one of the boxes where players' friends and families stayed, courtesy of Ginny Weasley.
"Rianne?!" Hermione asked/shouted as they got into the box.
A pretty blonde whirled around as she heard her name. "Mione?!"
The two girls saw each other and ran to one another before hugging each other fiercely.
"Oh my gosh. How have you been, you look great." Hermione said.
"Me, you look gorgeous in that dress."
"Wow I can't believe it, How have you been really?"
"I've been good. I'm here with…"
"It doesn't happen to be a certain Weasley named George does it?"
Rianne blushed.
Hermione gave a laugh before hugging her friend again. "I can't tell you how happy I am to see you."
"I know me too. I've been watching the show. I loved your date. Oh my gosh it was so cute! But I kept screaming for Oliver to kiss you. But he never did."
This time it was Hermione's turn to blush.
"I hav-" Rianne didn't get to finish her sentence.
"How come girls never do that when they haven't seen us in a while?" Ron complained jokingly.
Hermione turned around quickly. She almost whiplashed Rianne with her hair. Standing not a few feet away was Ron wearing the exact same Cannons hat that Harry had bought him many years ago when they were at Hogwarts but what caught her attention was the little girl in his arms.
"Ah yes. Hermione I would like you meet the newest addition to the Weasley family. My cutest niece in the world Yulisa Laurens now Weasley."
"Hi miss Hermione."
"Yulisa!" Hermione exclaimed before she went over to hug the girl.
"Wow Hermione wasn't she one of your kids?" Dasiy asked as they took a seat. Oliver sat behind them along with all the other Weasley males, Harry and Neville. Meanwhile the women sat in the front. Fleur married to bill. She was balancing a little girl in her lap namedVictria , then Mrs. Weasley, then Penelope whom was married to Percy and looked close to her due date. Then sat Yulisa with Teddy right beside her. He kept pulling on her hair but she didn't mind at all. She let him and even played with him. All the women cooed at the sight. After them came Rianne, Hermione, Daisy, and Luna.
Behind them in order was Bill, Mr. Weasley, Percy, George, Harry, Oliver, Ron,Neville and Charlie.
"Gah anty Ginny!" Victoria yelled when the announcer said Ginny's name. Meanwhile everyone cheered. Harry and Teddy were amongst the loudest.
"No no nooooo." Ron cried when one of the cannon chasers dropped the quaffle. Oliver patted him on the back.
Hermione rolled her eyes along with several of the other women.
The game ended with. 120-40. The Harpies won against the Cannons. There was honestly no surprise there. Not that anyone was going to say that out loud, in fear of Ron's response.
"Come on we have to go down to congratulate Gin." Bill said taking his daughter and leading the way.
Hermione grabbed Teddy while Mrs. Weasley got Yulisa.
"So Daisy how have you been?" Rianne asked from behind her.
"That was a very good game wasn't it." Luna said. "It's too bad the Cannons chaser dropped the quaffle five times. It probably wouldn't have been an eighty point difference if he hadn't."
Ron groaned from somewhere to the side. Charlie and George both made faces. Teddy in her arms layed his chin in her shoulders and gave a little giggle at his uncles' face.
"Ginny's a really, really good chaser. I'm going to have a hard time trying to block her this season when Puddlemere goes against the Harpies."
Hermione smiled up at him. "So you'll just have to train hard. It'll keep you on top your game not make you bored."
Oliver stopped walking. He was silent. Hermione stopped a few feet away when she realized that he had stopped.
"Oliver?"
"You know I've forgotten to think about it that way." He said before giving a boyish grin.
"You were Great sweetheart." Mr. Weasley said kissing his daughter's forehead.
"Thanks dad. So did everyone enjoy the game?"
Ron opened his mouth to respond but Charlie put a hand over his mouth. "Yeah it was great." He said.
"Yis you played very vell." Fleur commented. "Much bettah than the Cannons."
"You're definitely a force to be reckoned with." Oliver said.
"Thanks everybody. I'll see you at the restaurant I have to change out of these robes. But first where are my two boys?"
Ginny gave Harry and Teddy both a kiss before heading to the changing rooms.
Everyone left headed to the restruant and was met five minutes later by Ginny.
Each took a seat.
Charlie pulled the chair out for Daisy giving her a smile.
Ginny and Hermione shared a look along with every other female. The guys as usual were blind as always.
"Yulisa what would you like to eat?" George asked as he leaned in to help his daughter read the menu.
"Spaghetti!" Yulisa exclaimed.
"Pagatii!" Teddy chorused. "Pagatti, pagattii!"
The adults in the room laughed.
Conversation constantly flowed never awkward. Even Daisy had been comfortable. The first to leave was Bill and fleur who lived the furthest away but also because Victoria was half asleep. Then eventually the group dispersed until it was only Harry, George, Ginny, Ron, Rianne, Teddy, Yulisa, and them.
"We should go Teddy's tired. Today's been too exciting for him I think." Harry said holding Teddy.
"I don't know about you, but he looks like he has more energy than me or you together." Ron said looking at the energetic two year old.
"Yeah now but soon he'll be a nightmare if he's not in bed. The terrible twos I swear. I don't know how mum and dad did it with all of us." Ginny said shaking her head.
"Oh ok. I'll see you soon then." Hermione said hugging her.
"Two weeks, my wedding. You better be there you are the maid of honor."
"I'm headed home then." Rianne said.
"And we'll take her home."
Ron wiggled his brows at his brother. "Don't forget you have a seven year old with you."
George rolled his eyes at him, ignoring him.
"I've really missed you." Hermione said hugging Rianne.
"Me too."
The five of them apparated back to the Scottish castle exhausted. It was almost 11 o'clock.
Daisy said goodnight then went straight to her room. Luna and Neville lingered for a few minutes but left leaving Oliver and Hermione alone. Oliver grabbed hold of Hermione's hands and led her through the kitchen door to the garden in the back.
As the both of them stepped out of the house Oliver wrapped his arms around Hermione's waist and kissed her on the lips.
"So much better, no cameras." He said breaking apart.
Hermione gave a small laugh. "Thank you so much for today Oliver." She said leaning into his chest. "It was everything and more."
"Glad you liked it lass." He said.
Hermione looked up at him before standing on her tippy toes and gave his lips one last chaste kiss. "I love you." She said.
Oliver was shocked not sure he heard the words right. "Wait but…"
"I know I love you now Oliver. You're nothing I ever imagined. You're much better than any guy I ever imagined falling for."
"I love you too Hermione Granger." He said kissing her forehead.
He reluctantly let her go but it was late and both of them needed the rest.
Daisy pulled out two glasses of freshly squeezed orange juice that Rinny had made just yesterday. She grabbed one of the freshly baked out of the oven muffins and began to eat it while reading a magazine. Half an hour went by and Hermione hadn't come down yet. She looked at the clock unsure. It said 8:27. Hermione was normally down by eight o clock. She shrugged it off at first thinking Hermione probably needed rest. When the clock turned nine, she began to worry. What if Hermione was stuck in her shower like that one time.
Daisy knocked on Hermione's door but no reply came. "Hermione?" She asked. Still no reply. Daisy opened the door. She looked around. Hermione wasn't in her bed. Daisy then proceeded to check the bathroom. No one was there.
"Hermione?" She yelled down the halls. Nothing.
Daisy didn't know how to react but her gut feeling told her to get help. She ran to Alicia and Rianne's old room where Luna was residing.
She knocked on the door. Luna opened her door her hair freshly wet.
"Oh hello Daisy."
"Hermione's not in her room and she hasn't come down for breakfast yet. I'm worried."
Luna's eyes widened.
Luna ran to Hermione's room. She flung the doors open. Hermione wasn't there. She began a chant to see Hermione's trace. Hermione's only trace was out the door to the garden. Daisy gave a sigh of relief. "Oh she might be in the garden. She does that sometimes when she reads."
"What are you girls doing?" Oliver asked coming in and grabbing a glass of orange juice.
"Oh we were just trying to find Hermione, but found out her trace was to the garden. She's probably reading."
"A trace?" Oliver asked unsure.
"Yeah Luna casted a tracing spell and we ended up with one trace."
"Oh." Oliver said.
"But it's weird the trace is pink meaning it's old. It's past four hours old. But there was only one trace to the garden, why would Hermione head to the garden at before five in the morning?"
"I took her to the gardens last night." Oliver said.
Luna's tea stopped in mid air. "Oh no." She yelled before racing out to the garden.
"Hermione!" She yelled. No answer.
Oliver and Daisy raced after her.
"Oh no, oh no." Luna chanted frantically before casting the tracing spell again. It showed the exact same line. The line from Hermione's room to the garden in the same pink.
"I'm calling Harry and Ron." Neville said as he heard the situation. While he sent his protronus to them the four of them searched the castle for a sign of her. Harry and Ron came but they weren't alone. Bill, Charlie, George, and Ginny were there too.
"God damnit no." Oliver yelled as he pounded his fist into the last door in the corridor. They had searched the whole castle from basement to the highest castle tower. There was no trace of her at all.
