Why Didn't I See It?
Chapter 5~ Startling Reunions
It was a two hour drive to Hermione's house with stopping for gas and a bite to eat but he arrived there at 5:00 in the afternoon. The house was huge and Harry was a little nervous about going up to it because he thought that it might be the wrong house. (he had gotten over his little explosion by then) He got up all his courage and walked up to the house with his trunk in one hand and Hedwig in the other. Harry reached out a shaking finger and rang the doorbell. He heard a girls voice from inside yell "I'll get it!" He wondered if that was Hermione, it didn't sound like her, it sounded like a woman and not a girl of 15.
Before Harry knew it the door opened a crack and he saw two brown eyes before it shut again, then he heard locks clicking and then the door opened fully and Harry thought he had slipped into a dream. There was a beautiful teenage girl standing there, she was about 5"5' tall, she had dark auburn hair with fire red highlights, a gorgeous tan, perfect complexion, and she was wearing make-up! She had on a one strap tank top with a little of her midriff showing and cute jean shorts with a criss-cross detail around the hips, but Harry recognized those dark brown eyes that always swallowed him up. "Hermione, is that you?" Harry said astonished.
"It sure is," Hermione replied with a giggle she had noticed how he was gawking at her, but she couldn't deny that he looked pretty damn hot himself. Harry had grown a to be a good 6" tall and he was very muscular from last year's events and all the work the Dursleys made him do over the summer, his jet black hair was still messy and those eyes, those gorgeous green eyes were absolutely perfect.
"Wow" was all Harry could say. Hermione giggled again, that brought Harry back to earth.
"Well do you want to come in, or just stand out here all night?" said Hermione with a little attitude in her voice.
"No, no, no" Harry said trailing of. He picked his things up and followed Hermione into the house. When Harry walked into the house his jaw dropped. The house was absolutely huge! Harry followed Hermione through the open deck like porch, through a hall, past the kitchen, library, dining room, study and they ended up in the living room where there was a bathroom of to the side. She led him up the stairs and past a door with a sign on the door that said ~Hermione's Room Keep Out~ and on the other side of the hall there was a large bathroom. At the next door Hermione stopped and said "Well Harry, here is your room." And opened the door. It was enormous compared to his house at the Dursleys and it was painted green and the bed spread was also green. There was also a large closet with a full length mirror on the door, a desk in the corner and a large clothes chest on the wall. "Wow Hermione, this is huge are you sure it's where I'm staying?" asked Harry wide eyed. "Yep, I'm sure. Now is it possible that you can look at anything without opening your mouth and starring at it?" said Hermione smiling. Harry realized that he hadn't closed his mouth (except for talking) since he had arrived. "Oh sorry." Harry said "Hermione." "Ya." Hermione asked. Harry wanted to say that he thought that she looked beautiful and that he really like her but, "I, I. Am I going to get a full tour of the house or are we just going to walk through the halls?" "Cute." Hermione said. "Very cute. Well lets go then and I'll give you the full tour. And by the way I should tell you that my parents are leaving for their second honeymoon and they won't be back until after we have already left for school! So we have the house all to ourselves for the first month until Ron comes!" she finish quickly. "Cool," Harry said. 'Finally some alone time with Hermione.' Was what he was thinking. They went through the house and Hermione showed him all of the rooms. Then she took him outside to show him the deck, swimming pool and beach volleyball sand pit. Harry never knew Hermione's parents were so rich. He was pulled out of mid-thought by a woman's voice calling from inside. "Hermione dear, are you outside?" "Yes mum, I am just showing Harry around. What do you need?" Hermione called back. "Could you come in here so I don't have to yell." Her mother called back. "Yes mum." Said Hermione. She looked at Harry with a look that said 'only a few minutes till we are home free for a whole month'.
