Once upon A Twin
Third year had been a long and eventful year. With Buckbeak and Sirius, Hermione was overwhelmed just thinking about what had happened. Harry had been in danger yet again. Seemed like every year something was always trying to kill him. They had been incredibly lucky that she was given a time turner for her classes. They woulnd't have been able to save Sirius or the winged bird horse otherwise.
Hermione looked around her home. She had been home for a couple of weeks in the summer now. She had already finished her homework that was assigned. She was currently packing her things to head to the burrow for the rest of summer. Her parents had decided to go on a second Honeymoon and had asked if she could stay with her friends. They were never that close, ever since they had found out Hermione was a witch they were always distant. She knew they loved her but they couldn't treat her the same anymore. It didn't bother her as much as it used to. She just wanted them to be happy.
Her items fully packed she headed downstairs to wait for Mr. Weasley to arrive through the floo. He had gotten it connected for this one trip. Courtesy of Headmaster Dumbledore. As she sat down her parents had come in to join her to watch telly.
"Now Hermione be polite to Mr. and Mrs. Weaasley, write to us now and then okay sweetheart" Her mom told her smiling at her.
"Yes mum, I will. I'll send an owl later this summer once I have something to talk about! I'm sure with those boys it wont be long" Hermione said chuckling. Her parents nodded and that was that. A few minuttes later the fire turned green and made a woosh noise. Mr. Weasleyy appeard suddenly.
"Hello Hermione! Are you all packed ready to go? Mr. and Mrs. Granger lovely to see you again, thank you for letting Hermione spend the summer at our home, the boys are excited to see her, especially Ginny." He said happily. After a bit of small talk he grabbed her trunk and they both stood in the magically enlarged fireplace. He threw floo powder and shouted "THE BURROW" and in a flash they were gone.
Hermione stumbled out of the fireplace and accidently tripped into someones arms. Looking up she saw a mischievious smirk.
"Woah there Granger, only been here a few seconds and already falling for me eh?" He said chuckling.
Hermione blushed and pushed him away. Standing up she dusted off the remains of ash of her clothes. She looked at the twin.
"Very Funny Fred" Hermione said sarcastically. Fred looked at her with slight surprised for a moment before laughing.
"Exactly Granger, thanks for noticing" Chuckling to himself, he gave her one more look before he headed out to find George.
"The boys are outside playing quidditch Hermione, Molly will have lunch ready soon, why dont you go get them, run along now" Mr. Weasley said to her smiling. Hermione nodded and made her way outside to the back.
It was a beautiful day, perfect for quidditch she guessed. Looking up she saw the boys at full speed, including ginny who was hovering around. She stood there watching.
"HERMIONE!" Ginny shouted, she turned her broom and started diving towards her. Hermione made her way to sit at one of the tables outside.
Ginny came down and jumped of her broom, racing towards Hermione, she threw herself to give her a huge hug.
"Hi Ginny! I see you're enjoying the summer"
"I'm so excited youre here, the boys are driving me crazy! I hate being the only girl here! Harry and Ron just good around and Im pretty sure the twins are doing something dangerous in their room again!" She exclaimed dramatically. Hermione laughed.
Suddenly she was pulled out of her seat and engulfed in a hug. Shaking her head and gathering her composure she looked up and saw Harry, with Ron behind him.
"Hi Hermione! You're here finally! I missed you" Harry said happily. Ron nodded at her " Hey Hermione"
"Hello boys, I missed you too Harry! You lot best come in, your mom is about to serve lunch" She said bossily. The boys and Ginny nodded and followed her inside.
She made her way to the kitchen where Mrs. Weasley was bustling her way around, and noticed the twins there with their wands out.
"STOP THAT GEORGE FRED! NO MAGIC! NO..PUT THAT DOWN" Mrs. Weasley yelled at them. "GET OUT..GET OUT OF MY KITCHEN"
The twins laughed even harder before they began to run away from their mothers wrath. Hermione walked toward Mrs. Weasley when she felt something crash into her and holding her to keep her from falling. She gasped and looked up.
"Oh ho ho, again Granger? It's only been a few minutes, did you miss me that much?" A smirking Fred was looking down at her. Hermione pushed him away and smacked him. He laughed even more, with a wink he ran away to catch his twin and away from his mother.
Infuriated at him, Hermione turned to Mrs. Weasley.
"Hi Mrs. Weasley, is there anything you need help with" She said politely. Mrs. Weasley turned around with a smile and shook her head.
"Hello dear, welcome, no thank you, everything is set, why don't you take a seat" She said. Hermione smiled and nodded at her.
A few minutes later, they were all seated at the table eating Mrs. Weasleys delicious lunch. The twins telling a hilarious story of a prank that they had done to Harry and Ron earlier in the week. It was nice to be with her boys again.
Once lunch was over Ginny dragged her to their room. The boys had gone back outside to play quidditch.
"Honestly Hermione, it has been the worst, they don't include me in anything. How has your summer been so far" Ginny asked.
"It's been okay, I finished our assignements earlier last week. Mom and Dad are going on their second honeymoon so there was much talk of their vacation. How has Harry been?"
"He arrived just a few days ago, he's been spending all his time with Ron. The first day he got here, he looked as if he hadn;t been sleeping, but hes been alright now" Ginny said thinking back on the last week.
Hermione nodded, worried about Harry. Deciding not to pry she asked Ginny about her summer. They spent the rest of the day chatting and gossiping about the upcoming year. After they had dinner, her and the boys sat in Ron's room to discuss the previous year. They were talking about Sirius when she heard commotion in the hall. Opening the door to check what was happening, she heard Mrs. Weasleys shouts and the twins laughter. Lookind at the hall she saw them standing huddled in the doorway of their room. At that moment Fred turned around and sent her a wink before closing the door. She shook her head, and closed the door. Harry and Ron looked at her sheepishly as they took out wizards chess. The res of the night was spent taking turns playing chess and talking before they headed to sleep.
