They soon reached the great hall, and sat down at a long table. All four of the tables for the different houses had been replaced with one long one. There weren't very many people at the table, seeing as it was spring break. Hermione, Ron and Harry sat down at a secluded corner of the table.
The food appeared on the table and Ron and Harry started to eat and then they launched into a conversation on quidditch. It wasn't until they were nearly done eating that they noticed Hermione was staring off in space and playing with her food.
"Hermione, hey are you ok?" Harry said looking quite concerned.
Hermione's head shot up and for a few seconds looked very disoriented. "Huh what did you say"?
"Harry just asked if you were ok", said Ron as he joined in the conversation.
"Oh I'm fine", said Hermione, "I've just got some things on my mind".
"Well do you want to tell us about it? You've been acting strangely ever since we left to practice." Harry asked.
"It's nothing really." Hermione said as she desperately tried to muster up a smile.'I've just been thinking about my elementary school. I can't believe its been so long since I went to a muggle school. I used to have so much fun there, and Amber and I, oh we had so much fun."
"Who is Amber?" Said Ron as a puzzled expression crossed his face.
"Amber?" Hermione said," I never told you about her, oh I'm not surprised. Amber was my best friend throughout elementary school. I still remember how I met her. I was playing on the playground during kindergarten orientation and I was bored and I saw her playing on the swings. I walked right up to her and asked her if she wanted to be my friend, and she said yes." [This may sound kind of funny, but that's how I met my best friend in kindergarten and we're still best friends now and we're going into 10th grade] "Amber and I were inseparable we did everything together. We stayed best friends through 5th grade. Well that's pretty much all there is to say"
"What happened to her after 5th grade?" Ron asked, "there's got to be more to it than that."
"Oh yeah there was more," said Hermione. Then she got up from the table and took off out the door.
