The afternoon went by quick and it was soon night and time for them to go to sleep.

" Good night Harry! The day after tomorrow is the dance!" Hermione said excitedly.

" I can't wait!" Harry said rolling his eyes.

Hermione laughed and heard him say good night.

They both fell into a dreamless but long sleep to be awakened to the sound of Hermione's annoying alarm clock and Hermione's laugh, which somebody had turned the volume up.

" Harry!" Hermione yelled from her bedroom.

No answer.

Hermione climbed out of bed.

She went to Harry's room and knocked.

No answer.

She opened the door slowly and crept inside his room. She saw him in his bed with a book in his hand.

Hermione went closer to get a closer look.

It was an album.

Hermione slowly sat down on his bed and stared at him sleeping so peacefully. His utterly bungled hair was covering his eyes.

She stared at him a bit longer before she took the album out of his hand.

She opened it and looked through it. It contained many pictures of his parents and friends and family. It even had some of her and Ron.

There was one that Colin Creevey had taken in his second year when Professor Lockhart had eradicated all his bones in his arm instead of fixing it.

She laughed.

Harry opened his eyes at the sound of laughing.

Everything was slightly blurry and he reached over quietly, picked up his glasses, and put them on.

He saw Hermione was sitting on his bed with her side turned towards him. He smiled to himself before he noticed he was looking through the album.

As quietly as he could, he slipped himself from under the covers and got out of the bed.

He glanced at Hermione again and she was still sitting there, not the slightest notion that he had left.

He got his clothes from the counter and headed to the bathroom.

Hermione flipped another page and there was another picture of his parents.

Their wedding day was on the next page.

And Sirius was there as well.

In Hermione's opinion Harry's father was very handsome just like his son is.

Harry's mother was beautiful and the green eyes Harry inherited from her were gorgeous as she waved up at her.

Hermione hadn't noticed Harry come in dressed and cleaned.

He came in, looked over her shoulder, and smiled at what she was looking at. His mother waved at her and smiled.

" She was beautiful wasn't she?" Harry asked quietly taking a seat by Hermione and draping one of his arms around her shoulders and looked at his mother wave back at him.

His father also waved and nodded towards him.

Hermione who didn't know Harry was awake jumped slightly as she heard his voice and felt his arm around her.

" Harry, when did you get up? Sorry I as in here. I'll leave if you want me to?. I have to take a shower anyway," Hermione said getting up but Harry pulled her back down on his bed.

" I didn't tell you to leave," Harry said grinning.

" So," Hermione asked.

" I just thought since you were so interested in this album we could look at it together sometime," Harry shrugged and picked it up and put it in his trunk and turned towards Hermione.

" That would be lovely," Hermione said reassuring him with a smile and she left him in the room and went to take a shower.

Harry went down in the kitchen, opened the fridge, and started to get things he would need for breakfast.

Hermione came down while he was in the process of cooking eggs and bacon.

" Yum! That smells delicious!" Hermione said from behind him.

" Good!" Harry said turning his head smiling at her.

Harry pulled the seat out for Hermione as she was taking her seat and smiled at her.

" You slept well?" Hermione asked from her chair as Harry went back to cooking breakfast.

" Very, you?" Harry asked looking over his shoulder at her.

" Great!"

" So what is it that you have created?" Hermione asked.

Harry flipped whatever it was and said, " You'll find out".

They ate breakfast talking about this and that.

Hermione sighed and then asked, "Did you get the newspaper, Harry?"

Harry raised an eyebrow, " Newspaper? What newspaper?"

" The one that comes everyday?" Hermione laughed sarcastically.

" HaHA Very funny," Harry said rolling his eyes.

" And No I didn't get it, yet," Harry added with a quick hint of smile.

" Is this a challenge?" Hermione asked.

" You bet," and Harry ran outside the door with Hermione running behind him.

Harry leapt over the remaining steps, which caused him to get a head start, but he slightly stumbled, lost his balance, and fell to the ground. He got up quickly to see Hermione had just run passed him.

Hermione slowed her pace and turned around just to see Harry about to grab her.

He lifted her and placed her behind him as if moving an obstacle. He ran after he did.

Hermione was as shocked as she could be. She started running after him and soon caught up with him.

They both reached the end of the drive to find.

" Where is it?" Hermione asked.

" I don't know. This is your house after all," Harry said.

Hermione hit him playfully on the shoulder and tried to see if she could figure out this puzzle.

Then she heard a screech from behind her. She turned and smiled.

" I have figured out where it is," Hermione said grinning at Harry.

" Where?" Harry asked looking left to right

Hermione took Harry's head in her hands and fixated to where he could see Hedwig perched on his window.

" Hedwig!" Harry said happily.

" She must have got it," Hermione said laughing. " You must have trained her to be like a dog instead of an owl," She said bursting into laughter.

Hermione had a sudden idea.

" Tag! You're it!" Hermione said happily tapping Harry on the shoulder.

Hermione started to run as Harry was about to tackle her to the ground.

Harry chased her all the way back to the house and inside it was more of a chaotic atmosphere.

Harry was chasing Hermione who was throwing pillows at him to stop him or block him. Hedwig flew around the house and perched up on the TV watching amused at the show before her.

Harry just stumbled over the pillows, chased after Hermione through the house she ran up the stairs, and he was after her.

Hermione ran up the stairs as fast as she could, Harry was right behind her she could hear him panting and his footsteps.

She turned right at the next hallway and turned sharply at another and another sharp one at the next one. She quickly side stepped into a room and placed her back against the wall besides the door. She breathed heavily as Harry passed her in a sprint dashing from one corridor to the other.

Hermione walked quietly out of the room, turned a corner, and headed for Harry's room.

She entered and saw it neat and clean for a surprise. Most boys had messy rooms. However Harry was no ordinary boy.

Hermione smiled to her self, stood in front of the mirror, and saw Hedwig fly in.

The beautiful owl came in and perched upon the counter and it affectionately nipped Hermione's finger.

Hermione stroked the owl and soon closed her eyes while standing. She took a couple of deep breaths before opening her eyes and she started to pet Hedwig once more paying not attention to the figure's reflection in the mirror.

Hermione turned back to the mirror and once again she started to run but Harry was casually standing at the doorway.

He grinned impishly at her and strode around the room towards her but occasionally stopping to observe his surroundings.

Hermione moved in circles as Harry edged towards her smiling.

Finally Hermione just stopped. She was against the bed. She had to run before Harry could get her. (By the way they are playing tag, if you didn't get the memo)

She dashed to the right just as Harry had decided to run at her.

In shock at the sudden run Harry grabbed her arm involuntary jerking her with him to the bed and they fell tangled in each other's arms in a clump.

Hermione landed half on top of Harry and half underneath him.

Despite the situation of struggle and chaos, Harry was just Harry.

" Tag you're it!" Harry said about to tag Hermione but she turned bringing him with her wrapped in sheets. They fell to the floor Hermione on top of Harry.

" Harry!" Hermione said annoyed.

" Sorry Hermione," Harry said struggling to get up.

She was lying on top of him and couldn't get out because the sheets were tightly wrapped twice around them and were inconveniently under Harry and in between them, Harry couldn't get up because Hermione was on him. She couldn't get up .and on.

They just stayed like that for a minute before Harry said something, " I have an idea," Harry said looking into her eyes.

" What?" Hermione asked.

" Well, I don't weigh that much and it'll be quick, I promise," Harry said.

" Okay do what ever you have to, but get me out!" Hermione said exasperated.

" Okay here goes," Harry said.

Harry put his arms around her and took a deep breath. He smiled quickly. He rolled over and he was on top Hermione.

Hermione helped him remove the first layer that was between them.

He rolled again on top of her as she rolled on top of him and they removed the second layer between them and the first around them.

Harry rolled again on top of her and they removed the last layer between them.

They both could feel each other's bodies pressed against their own.

Harry blushed and muttered sorry as his chest was on hers. His whole body was neatly covering hers.

He rolled twice more until they could easily climb out of the muddle.

" Sorry about that," Harry muttered blushing.

" It's all right. You had good intentions after all," Hermione said turning around to start cleaning before he could see she was blushing.

Harry smiled at her and helped.

Harry and Hermione cleaned up the room.

Hermione threw a pillow at Harry, who clumsily blocked it, which caused it to smack him in the face.

Harry smiled at her and threw it back with the clean pillow cover on.

When they had cleaned Harry's room, Harry turned towards Hermione.

" Hermione, do you want me to help clean your room?"

" It's all right Harry. I already did, but thanks for being such a gentleman," Hermione said beaming at him.

" Okay, let's got to breakfast," Hermione started.

" Oh MY GOD! BREAKFAST!" Harry yelled and raced down the stairs with Hermione besides him.

When they reached the end of the stairs, they didn't smell a burning smelly smell smell, (lol), but they smelled coffee.

" Harry, you made coffee?" Hermione asked trying to hold the mad desire to laugh.

" No," Harry said rolling his eyes.

Harry and Hermione stepped into the kitchen at shock at who else was in there.

" Oh hello Harry dear! How are you?" Mrs. Granger asked from the table.

" Hermione how are you?" Mr. Granger asked happily.

" Great!" Harry said. " You sir?"

" Fine as well, Boy this breakfast was wonderful!" Mr. Granger said wiping his face with a napkin.

" Yes it is! Hermione did you make this? It is absolutely exquisite!" Mrs. Granger said.

" No I didn't. Harry did," Hermione said beaming at Harry.

Silence filled the room.

" Harry, where did you learn to cook?" Mrs. Granger asked excitedly.

" I had to cook like everyday for the Dursleys. That's probably where. And my Aunt made me only watch Food Channels so I could make something," Harry said shrugging.

" Hermione, you've got competition," Mr. Granger said winking at Harry.

" Hermione is a great cook also, she should make something for you for lunch or something, its really good," Mrs. Granger said hugging her daughter.

Hermione blushed modestly at her father and mother's comments.

Harry just smiled at them.

" Well Harry seems you are the cook of the house up one step off her," Mr. Granger said.

" Yes seems quite that way. Hermione shall get you two breakfast okay, while you tell us what you guys did," Mrs. Granger said.

Hermione nodded and headed towards the kitchen.

Harry took a seat as Hermione got up and left, Harry thought he heard her sigh in relief but he shrugged it off.

Harry told them about everything. Tennis, Tag, Skating etc...

" Ah. See you have had quite fun!" Mr. Granger said happily.

" Yes," Mrs. Granger said as well.

Harry looked towards both of them and noticed they were looking at something in the door way.

Harry turned and saw Dumbledore standing there.
