Chapter eleven:
Ginny and Hermione spent the night at the Burrow talking all night until baout seven in the morning when

they both fell asleep on the couch beside each other.

It had been a great night and Hermione had been told all of the happenings during the years that she

was gone.

Ginny was a great friend, and was still. It had reminded Hermione of how it used to be before Harry psat away.

They got closer at the end of fourth year and Ginny became her third best friend.

Hermione had felt EXTREMELY guilty when Ginny told her about how they had done a memorial service for her

and filled the casket with one thing from each person that reminded the person of her. Ginny told

her how seventh year was very rough on all of Hogwarts and its students because of the deaths and that

the staff and students placed a large portrait in the Griffindor common room of the famous trio who defeated

Lord Voldemort.

It had Hermione, Ron and Harry all standing beside each other with their arms around each other.

Hermione vowed to go and look at it one day.
Hermione's eyes fluttered open and for a second she didnt know where she was. She looked around the room

and saw that Ginny was still asleep.

She got up and walked over to the table where her and the Weasley's had enjoyed many meals together

over the years.

Molly Weasley must have left her some tea that what still warm on the counter. There was a note there

as well.

Hermione read it: Dear Hermione & Ginny, Im out in the garden in the back, care to join me

once your awake? - molly
She picked up the cup of tea and slowley walked through the Burrow to the back door leading to the garden.

She looked at some of the pictures on the wall. There were family portraits and pictures of the kids when they were younger

Hermione immediatley started laughing though when she came upon a picture of Fred, George and Ron holding up Hermione and smiling

meanwhile Harry and Ginny were floating oin the air beside them on their brooms.

The photos smiled and joked around and she felt tears coming in her eyes when she remembered the

the great summers she had spent there.
Hermione walked out to garden and saw Molly Weasley humminging happily as she pulled out weeds from the

garden.

She smiled at the sight that had been so familiar to her just eight years before.

"Hello Mrs. Weasley!" she called as she walked over to the mother Weasley.

She dusted off her skirt and looked up at Hermione smiling while blocking the sun with her hand.

"Hello there Hermione, is Ginny awake as well?" she asked.

Hermione shook her head to indicate no and then stopped beside her.

Mrs. Weasley looked her over and smiled.
"Oh dear! It's just so great to have you back. You were always like a second daughter to me,

infact you were the only child who would help me with the garden instead of running off and playing

quidditch with the others!" she said.

Hermione laughed remembering the many days she had spent knee deep in soil gardening with the woman

who had practically adopted her as her own.

" Do you need some help Molly?" she asked looking down at the fairly large garden.

" Always, especially if its yours!" she said and Hermione and her started working.

After about ten minutes of peaceful silence Molly started chating.

"You know Hermione, it must have been quite a shock to meet Diasy last night." Molly said and

Hermione nodded in agreament.

"Yes, I do believe it was. But I couldnt have expected Ron to still love me after all those years

he had to move on. It would have been wrong for me to make him ruin his chances with such a lovely

girl like Daisy." Hermione said and yanked out a large weed from the ground and nearly fell over

from the effort.

"Hermione, Ron only met Daisy a few months ago. He spent years searching for you, then one night

he just got so fed up, it was the night of the eight year mark actually," Molly said then paused to think

only to start back again in a few seconds.

"Anyways, he came back hom ethe next morning and introduced me to Daisy and now, only two months later

they are engadged... a little too rushed for my liking." Molly said. and yanked out a few weeds again, throwing

them to the side on a huge pile.

Hermione snorted as though this was an understatement.

Ron had never hurried anything when they were younger, infact he always took his time. He had like Hermione

so much it took him two months to even ask her out let along get ENGADGED!

To state the obvious she was a little jealous of Daisy...ok VERY jealous, but she was determined

not to let anyone know.

"I know I shouldnt be saying this dear, especially sice she could be my daughter in law," Molly Weasley

stated and paused, making the statement much more dramatic.

"I don't really like the girl that much. I much prefered you and Ronald together. YOu were a match made in heaven."

Molly commented smiling sincerely and patting Hermione's shoulder with a glazed look in her eyes

as though she was remembering some sacred time in the past.

"Plus, you never said, 'Oh my god,', 'like thats aaaaabbbbbbbssssooooolllluuutttttllllleeeeyyyy BEAUTIFUL!' like

some sort of floosie on that Baywatch show they had in America," Molly said simply and that

sent both woman into fits of giggles.
