Disclaimer: I own nothing but the plot…if there even is one, but one of these days I will give Mrs. Rowling a call and beg to the gods to own Draco Malfoy. Yummeh
The Sweetest SinAs Hermione took the pillow from her face she looked at the picture of Harry, Ron, Ginny and herself, when she realized, =where was Ginny today?= she thought to herself, =and only one of the twins were there come to think of it= she shrugged, =maybe they were just outside or something or other=.
She jumped off her bed to go to her wardrobe, she passed her full length mirror and raised an eyebrow, =I went to Ron's house looking like that?!= she went back to her bed and grabbed her wand and said a simple spell to straighten her hair and add light make-up to cover up the tired look =that's a little better at least=.
As she opened her wardrobe to pick out her clothes Crookshanks walked over to her and rubbed on her legs, "Hello beautiful," Hermione said bending down to pet her cat, "Ok, what should I wear," she said referring to the cat, she picked out a white tank with a gray and black plaid skirt and held it up to herself, the cat cocked its head to the side, "Something over the tank? Yeah I thought so too, let's see," she rummaged through the clothes and came out with a gray zip-up over sweater with long sleeves and pockets.
(a.n- I know they aren't suppose to use magic outside of school, but since it's their last year, I figure they are responsible enough to be able to, k that's all haha)
She changed in a matter of seconds, grabbed her purse and left her room, as she was running down the stairs her hello kitty flip phone rang and she almost fell in shock on the last step, "H-hello?" she stuttered gaining her posture, "Miss me Mia?" a man's voice asked, Hermione stopped and went behind the staircase so her mother wouldn't hear her talking, "No, I don't, why are you still calling me?" she asked feeling goose bumps on her arms, "Because I miss your voice," he said with a malicious laugh at the end, she bit her lip "Leave me the hell alone," she said then flipped the top back down and shoved her phone back in her purse.
She walked into the kitchen to find her mother washing the dishes, "Ok mom, I'm ready," Hermione said with a smile, her mother turned around and smiled too, "Ok, then let's go," she took off the yellow washing gloves and the apron, grabbed the keys and walked out the house, they got into the Honda civic and backed out of the driveway then straightened and headed out to the very heart of London.

"Before we do anything, I must stop at Knockturn Alley, for obvious reasons," Lucious said swiftly turning into the darkened alley, Draco hated being here sometimes, the hags would stare at him with wistful eyes and it made him squirm, he wanted to run far away from this place.
"Father, could I just go back to Diagon Alley, I'll probably just get in your way here," he said hoping the fear wasn't in his voice, his father sighed deeply, "Fine, in one hour and no later, you will meet me back at the Leaky Cauldron, is that understood?" Lucious said, his eyes were piercing, letting Draco know that if he were to be late, there would be hell to pay, "Yes Father,"
He started walking back and once he was out of sight from Lucious he quickened his pace out of there. He relished the feel of the sun on his face once he got back on Diagon Alley, all he really needed to buy here were his books, so he decided to just get it over with then go to the muggle side of London and just look around.
Flourish and Blotts was as usual, full, since school was starting very soon, and since the papers with the list on them arrived today, everyone was here to get all their shopping done and over with, he went and picked up the books he needed, paid then shrunk them to fit in his pocket.
He went to the Leaky Cauldron, checked the magical clock and noticed he had 45 minutes left before his father was done, he took off his robe and shrunk that as well, then walked casually out of the Leaky Cauldron to the hustle and bustle of muggle London.

"Mum? Do you think you could pull over and um, let me drive maybe?" Hermione asked with a cheeky smile and her fingers crossed, she had just gotten her license a few weeks ago, her mother looked at her smiled and let out a sigh, "I guess so," she said pulling off to the side of the rode and they switched seats.
Hermione adjusted the mirror, fixed the seat, changed the radio station, put on her sunglasses, rolled down all the windows, then finally taking the car out of park and into drive she accelerated and once again was making their way to London.
"Mum, you are going white knuckled on me, calm down, the instructor at the DMV said I was a very good driver," she said laughing at her mother gripping the hand holder and the arm rest, she relaxed a little then grabbed on again when Hermione was parallel parking in between a mustang and a viper.
Hermione rolled up the windows locked the doors and got out of the car pushing her sunglasses on top of her head and looked at he mum, "Honestly mum, I'm not going to kill us," she said putting the keys in her purse, "And I'm driving home so, yeah," she said walking to the side-walk with her mother.
"Where to first?" Her mother asked, "Well let's see, there's the piercing parlor for my tongue, lebrate, and eyebrow, then there is that awesome vintage store where I saw a Ramones shirt I wanted," Hermione said with a slight grin, her mother sighed, "Hermione Lynn Granger, I am digging my own grave for this but, you can get ONE piercing, and we will go to the vintage store," her mother said smiling at her daughters shocked face.
(a.n, erm the lebrate piercing is a stud between your lips and chin, I have one so I decided to just add it in lol so doesn't Christina Aguilara, so pfft whatev)
"Oh my GOD. Mum I love you!" Hermione said jumping up and down and giving her mother a big hug, "Thank you thank you!!!" She said with a huge smile on her face, "Your welcome, but after this, no more piercings until you are eighteen." Her mother said smoothing out her hair that Hermione had fluffed out with the hug, "works for me let's go!" Hermione said walking into Spider Bites, dragging her mother behind her up to the cases of rings.
"So? What are you getting pierced?" Her mother asked looking at a zero gage tongue ring and winced, reflexively touching her tongue, Hermione looked at the 14 gage silver ball lebrate stud, "My lebrate," she said, her mother's eyes were saucer size, and whispered "your vagina?!" Hermione choked and laughed, "No mum! Right here," she said putting her index finger in between her lips and chin, "like a lip piercing but a little lower," Hermione said, leading her mother to the register.
"How may I help you ladies?" The clerk asked, her mother looked up from rummaging in her purse and once again saucer size eyes noticed all the piercings on the man's face, "Oh, my..did those..hurt?" she asked him, he laughed, "did that tattoo hurt," he asked, Hermione looked at her, "tattoo?" her mother smiled sheepishly, "it was a long time ago," and she glared at the clerk and stuck her tongue out.
"So little miss, what is it you are going to get," he asked handing her mother a paper to fill out, "Uh, my lebrate," she said handing over her money, "Ok, follow me and we'll get this done," Hermione and her mother followed him into a little room with a doctor's type of bed and needles and rings everywhere.
"Ok, just sit on the bed, and rinse your mouth with this for 30 seconds, it sort of numbs your mouth and cleans it out so nothing will get in the hole," he said taking a needle out of a box and putting gloves on, once she spit it out he took a fine tip marker and made a mark below her lip, "Is there good?" he asked, Hermione just nodded, "Ok, go to that case right there and pick out the size you want and design or whatever," he said, she jumped off the bed and picked out the silver ball stud that she had seen before.
"Alright, open your mouth, take a deep breathe, and hold it," and he slid the needle through, she didn't wince or make a sound, he mother was quite pale though, he corked the needle, then took the ring out of the package and cleaned it off, then took the needle out of her mouth and put the ring through and screwed it on.
"All done," he said, taking off the gloves and disposing the needle, Hermione got off the bed again and went to the mirror and smiled, "Perfect."
A.N, I know I said Train and stuff but I got caught up in the piercing, I put everything that happened to me in with the story, very detailed lol, hope you like it!
