I heard the alarm go off next to my ear. It was eight oclock, and I wanted to make sure I was ready for when Hermione came.
I got together all letters and food I got over the summer and packed it in my trunk. I made sure my homework, and books were in it too. I looked around the room, now empty of me, knowing it would be the last time I would ever see it. Even though I hated number four, it was still partially home.
I took a hairpin out of the package Fred and George sent me as a gift. I unlocked the door to my room noiselessly. I heard the Drusleys downstairs breaking their fast.
I considered sneaking out of the house and sitting on the doorstep until Hermione came, but I gave that thought up. I guess I should go down and announce I would be leaving in a few hours.
I grabbed my trunk and started going backwards down the stairs. A loud 'THUMP' emitted every time the trunk hit another step.
I heard my Uncle push his chair away from the table yelling "What on earth is that boy doing?!" I heard him slam through the living room into the entrance hall where I was only a few steps, and thumps, away.
"Boy!", my Uncle barked. "What are you doing? Youre loud enough that the neighbors could hear you. And how did you get out of your room. I forbade you to use. ma. that, stuff, in my house. Well? Whats your excuse boy?", by now my Uncle was turning a pretty shade of purple.
I looked at him tipped my head to the side and said, "Im bringing my stuff down for when Hermione and her parents come. Im going to their house for the rest of the summer. And I didnt use any magic."
Uncle Vernon started spewing and looking around franticly, as if expecting to see neighbors with their ears pressed up agents the window. "Dont. Ever. Use. That. Fowl. Word. In this house. Ever!"
I lowered my eyes, pretending submission. "Yes Uncle." I started laughing on the inside knowing I would never have the chance to say it again in the house. Considering I would never come back here.
Uncle Vernon narrowed his eyes looking at me. Then opened them wide in fright. "People, like.. You. are coming here? Freaks? I will not have them ruining my house or hurting my wife and child! They are forbid here!"
"Uncle Vernon. Dont worry. There muggles. Just like you. Theyre coming in a car. They dont even know how to use the Floo Network. They will be here at 11:00. You wont have to see me for the rest of the summer." Or the rest of your life. I added to myself. Your life or mine.
Uncle Vernon looked at me suspiciously, but looking forward to the fact of my leaving early he left me to finish his breakfast, and inform Aunt Petunia and Dudley of the new arrangement. (A.N~ Ok I know Uncle Vernon is so OOC, but I can't help it. If any of you have suggestions, please tell me.)

I sat on the last step in front of the door. My legs were propped up on my trunk in front of me. Anyone looking on would have thought I was completely at ease. In mind body and spirit. On the contrary completely. My mind was a whirlwind of activity, wondering when Herm was going to get there. Wondering about the necklace she gave me. I was fingering it at the moment. Twisting it around. Rubbing it with thumb. Somehow it gave me a strange sense of calm.
I looked at the grandfather clock for what was at lease the 30th time this hour. It was five till eleven. My eyes flicked towards the window, hoping to see some sign of Hermione. The Grangers. Snape. Someone.
I looked down at my stomach, which took a good time to growl in protest of not being fed. I was about to open my trunk and get out some carrot cake, when I heard a knock on the door.
I heard Uncle Vernon yell at me to answer the door, as he himself came into the hall. Her glared at me, peeked out the window, and gasped in surprise. He pulled open the door and ushered the people in saying, "Mr. And Mrs. Granger. What a surprise to see you. I wasnt expecting you. Petunia! Put on the Kettle. The Grangers are here."
Mr. Granger looked a bit puzzled and replied. "Its good to see you Mr. Drusley, but this isnt a social visit. As delightful as the offer of your wifes fine tea is, I'm here to get Harry."
I took it as my queue to stand up and say something. "Mr. Granger, Mrs. Granger, it's really great of you to come and have me over for the summer. Is Hermione with you by any chance?"
Hermione burst through her parents at that moment with a cry of "Harry!"
I ran up to her and swept her into a hug. "Herm. Its so good to see you. I wouldnt know how I would survive if it werent for you." I saw over Hermiones shoulder Dudley peeking around the doorframe to the kitchen. He looked quizzically, then jealously at the tall shapely girl in my arms. No doubt he would be griping about it for a while. Why shouldnt Hermione catch his eye. She had grown some bit over the past few years. She was an inch taller them me, at my 5 9". Her hair had become more thick and curly, and was now tied back into a bun that resembled McGonagall a bit. Her skin was a pale cream, so soft and flawless. Her hips and breast were those of a real woma. I slapped myself mentally. How long had I been going on like this in my head? This was Hermione. My best friend. Friend! God I cant believe I was talking like that. Another slap and I pulled away from the embrace. I heard Hermione whisper, "Happy Birthday Harry." As her mouth passed my ear. I could feel the light breath on my ear as the lips touched it gently. Another slap. I pulled all the way away, and smiled my Thanks to her.
We turned our attention to the three adults. They were talking in hushed voices, though Uncle Vernon was an adequate distance from Mr. Granger now. Hermione motioned to the trunk and lifted up one end of it. I took the other and made our way past the adults to the door. Hermione pause to tell her mother that her and her would be in the car when they were done. We left the adults to their discussion, and made their way to the waiting SUV.
Authors Note: Sorry this is so short. Im really really sorry. I just wanted to try to get the chapter out today. I have to go somewhere soon so, you know? Flame if you must. They will be used to light a fire. Its really cold here. Ps. Apparently when I use quotation marks it also shows up as " grrrrr. Well HELP ME someone. Please?!
