*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Hermione is starting her sixth year at Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. But this year is going to be different

Over the summer Hermione paid a visit to her cousin Emily in London. As everyone knows London is the fashion capital of the world and let us just say that Hermione caught the bug. Now her whole look has changed completely. Her bushy brown hair has been replaced with gentle curls that cascade down her back and end just after her shoulder blade. Instead of her simple, pretty face; a dab of makeup was applied around her eyes and lips. Not just her face had changed, Hermione's body had changed too. It seamed as if just over the summer she had acquired curves in all the right places.

Ms. Granger's style had definitely changed too. Replacing her straight cut jeans and plain T's, were form hugging pants and fitted shirts and sweaters. Hermione had even invested in a Ms. Merlin's Magic Matching Matcher, a small magical device which will sit in one's closet and select matching outfits so the owner doesn't have to select them herself. Most people would think that Hermione's new look is just her trying to get noticed. But for Hermione it was just a simple change- she definitely did not expect all the attention she was about to get.

Hermione's ways of thinking had also changed over the summer. Since before she could remember Hermione had been very reserved and shy - that was all about to change this year. This would be the year she finally told Ron her true feelings for him.

King Cross Station-Platform 9

Hermione's POV (Point of View):

I can't believe it is already 6^th year. I feel like it was just yesterday when I walked into King Cross station with my Spell Book Level One textbook in hand. Now I'm starting my second to last year at Hogwarts as a Perfect. I am so excited for the year ahead.

My parents walk me to the brick pillar between platforms 9 and 10 but they don't go past this barrier. Since my parents are muggles, they are still a bit baffled that you can just walk right between the two train platforms and get to a hidden third platform. I bid them goodbye and run through the pillar, Crookshanks and all.

I haven't taken but a step past the 9 platform entrance when I'm met by Draco Malfoy. As I begin to push my way past him I'm assaulted by his obnoxious voice in my ear.

"Wow Granger, you really spruced yourself up this summer. Whoever are you trying to impress it's not working."

Trying to keep my voice controlled, I responded in a cold tone, "For your information Malfoy, I saw you checking me out back there so don't try to pull some stupid insult on me." In a teasing, seductive tone I added in, "And oh by the way, ya might want to check your zipper- it's down."

There I left him stuttering for a come-back, mouth hanging open and all.

Meanwhile Ron and Harry were about to join the other students on the platform.

Ron had spent his summer at the Burrow with Harry. After the Triwizard Championship the Ministry ruled that Harry should stay with a wizarding family, for his protection and for the protection of Muggles. Harry now lives with the Weasleys and couldn't be happier. As for the Durslesys, they are overjoyed that they never have to deal with all the, in their opinion, Magic crap.

Ron's dad's new found interest was the muggle practice of weight lifting. Being a wizard, Mr. Weasley had never seen the need for muscles. "Why use muscles to lift things when you could just use a charm?" was Mr. Weasley's philosophy. So Harry and Ron spent the summer experimenting with Mr. Weasley's collection of Muggle exercise machines, and it showed. Without really realizing it Ron and Harry had acquired biceps, triceps and lovely evenly toned 6-packs ( I would say 8-packs but anonymous sources have informed me what there are not enough muscles to have an 8-pack) The boys hadn't really expected this outcome, but no one was complaining, especially Ginny. Early in the summer she had finally expressed to Harry how much she liked him; the two have been dating since then.

While Harry and Ginny were out on dates, Ron was left at home to day dream (well technically night dreams but anyways) and who do you think he was dreaming about, surprisingly not food, but none other that Hermione. (I know you would have never guessed)

Ron couldn't get his mind off her; everything he thought of made him think of her. Even normal stuff that everyone does like showering made him think of her. Especially cold showers, like the ones he took when he woke up dreaming of Hermione.

But this would be the year he would confess to Hermione how he felt about her. That is if he didn't get all choked up when he even thought of her. Sure she didn't wear all the hippest clothes or hang with all the populars at Hogwarts, but that didn't change the fact that she was beautiful.

Back to the Station:

As Harry and Ron bid goodbye to Mrs. Weasley, they couldn't hide their excitement to go back to Hogwarts.

"Bye Mum, we'll owl when we get there."

"Bye Ronny, Bye Ginny, Bye Harry! I'll be watching the post for your letter."

With that the three walked through the barrier between the two platforms.

As soon as they were through Ginny began to run towards a stunning girl dressed in some hip-hugger jeans and a fitted-T. To Ron she looked vaguely familiar but he couldn't put his finger on it.

At the same time back with Ginny, the two girls were talking.

"Hermione, I can't believe how much you've changed over the summer! You look amazing. Plus you're a Perfect!"

"Oh thanks Gin, I'm really looking forward to this year. I guess I was just tired of the way I looked and thought I needed something to spruce myself up, that's all."

"Whatever you say Herm, Ooooo did you hear Harry and I got together over this summer? I can't believe it actually happened, hell I can't even believe I told him I was into him."

"Congratulations Ginny! I'm so sorry I couldn't come to the Burrow this summer; it would have been so much fun. Hey and by the way, who is that guy standing over with Harry?"

Hermione wanted to blab about how hot that guy was, but seeing that the guy had red hair herm was afraid that the guy was one of Ginny's relatives or something.

Ginny's POV:

Did Hermione just ask who that guy standing next to Harry was? I know Ron changed over the summer but I didn't think he changed so much that even Mione couldn't recognize him. Maybe it's just that Ron and Harry are far away from us and Herm can't see them clearly or something, I better call them over.

***

Ron's POV:

Oh my God, did Ginny just call me over to talk to her and that gorgeous girl? I can't believe she would do that, she knows I'm basically in love with Herm, why would she bother trying to hook me up with some girl? Needless to say, I still can't shake the feeling that that girl looks really familiar. Perhaps I saw her at Diagon alley or something. Oh well I'll go have a closer look.

"Hey Ginny." Harry said, giving my sister those googgley eyes that just give away the fact that they're hopelessly devoted to each other. Finally I spoke up,

"Hey Gin and Hey........." Holey Shit I think I just realized who that girl is! Is it, could it be?

"Hermione?"

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Ok that's it guys. I really hope you like it, but please don't be to harsh on me if you don't like it. I'll try to continue it soon.

I don't think I'm asking too much to want like 4 or 5 reviews please? That would totally make my day! You can't even imagine how happy I would be!

Thankx for reading
