Chapter 2: The next day
It was late into the afternoon, the day after Hermione got her letter. Mr and Mrs Granger had taken David, Mia and Rose to the local school to enrol then in the next year. They would need to get clothes, books and then pay for the year. Lately it seemed all that Hermione's parents had been doing was be with David, Mia and Rose. It annoyed Hermione, 'But I'm there child, they're only daughter. Spend time on me.ME!!!' Every time Hermione thought this, she would mentally shake herself. She had never been the jealous type, why start now? What had gotten into her? They are her family now, no they were mine first. No yours, mine...hear that MINE.
"Bloody hell!!!" Hermione exclaimed allowed and punched her pillow, "Just calm down Hermione, it's going to be alright. Ohhh no it isn't, it's never going to be alright. They're here, forever and I need to share my parents. NO.stop it. URHHH stop stop stop stop stop! Where has all this come from, you were never like this Hermione. You were sharing, kind, loving. You weren't jealous, angry, mad.."
HONK HONK
They were home. Hermione quickly checked her self in the mirror.
'Wow,' Hermione thought, 'how have I changed!'
It wasn't much really. Just straightened her hair with a spell she had found and changed the type of clothing she wore. No longer was she dressed by her Mum, but now by herself. That was it and Hermione liked it like that. Maybe she'll dye her hair a lighter colour one day, brown just gets so boring.
"HERMY, HERMY," yelled little Rose from the bottom of the stairs.
"HERMY HERMY!!!" the yells got louder with the thudding of tiny feet going up stairs.
"Pig, Hedwig go quickly. She's a muggle," whispered Hermione and they were off at the word of muggle.
CRASH BANG
Hermione's door flew open and stood there was little Rose dressed in a tiny cherry dress. The dress just covered her knee and her collar was spotless white with lace. Her socks were also spotless white with lace and on her feet were black buckle shoes. Her blonde hair had tiny curls in it, her blue eyes sparkled and her tiny smile was perfect. The 'perfect' daughter Hermione thought. Paula Granger had always tried to make Hermione look like this, but it never lasted long. Hermione had uncontrollable bushy brown hair; you could never do much with it. When Hermione was dressed like Rose, it lasted half an hour. Hermione didn't like frilly dresses, actually she didn't like dressed at all. Hermione was always exploring the schoolyard, playground or wherever she happened to be. Which meant her designer clothes weren't going to last long. They always got holes or stains and her shoe came back dirty and scuffed. Now that Hermione's mum had Rose and Mia, she could dress them up like how she wanted to dress Hermione up like. But in spite of all of this, Hermione still loved them so much.
"Hermy.," Rose said in a soft voice.
'Hermy' turned around to face Rose, her cheeks were bright red.
"Rose baby what is it?" Hermione asked the seven year all.
"I'm going to be in year one!" she exclaimed, "and when I get older I'm going to go to your school and be Head Girl.just like you. And when I go, I will say to everyone. I am Hermi..Her.Hermy Granger's little sister, Rose Ridge. No no Rose Granger. Yes Rose Granger.I like that."
Hermione stood there listening to Rose; it was the first time she felt like she had a little sister. Rose had really touched her in what she said, just like you. She was just about to cry.
"Rose baby, I'm sure when you go to my school you will be Head Girl. You'll be the best Head Girl Hogwarts has ever seen. The best.."
Just then Hermione stopped; she had said Hogwarts. Shit! But she had also said when you go to my school. Hermione had just said Rose will become a witch.
"Hogwarts.is that what your school is called?" Rose said sweetly.
Hermione nodded.
"It's a weird name Hermy, I have never heard of it. Where is it? What is it like? Do you like it," asked Rose.
I forgot seven year olds are always full of questions. Questions which its answers cannot be told to a muggle.
"Rose baby, where's your sister of yours?" asked Hermione attempting to change the subject, which shouldn't be all that hard with someone so young.
"Mia is with Daddy in our room, Mummy and Daddy brought some things for us and for David. Come with me, I want to show you." and with that Rose grabbed her hand and let Hermione out of her room, down the hall and into the large room at the end.
It was a mess, boxes were everywhere; full of clothes, toys, photos and beds. Mia was going through all the boxes and checking out what was in them. Mia was dressed identical to Rose; except she wore blue instead of cherry and her hair was a wavy strawberry-blonde colour.
"Mia Mia!" exclaimed Rose, "when I'm older I am going to Hermy's school and I am going to be Head Girl just like Hermy! And Hermy said when I go to Hogwarts I will be the best Head Girl it's ever seen!"
"Hogwarts," giggled Mia, "what a silly name."
"I know! Hermy what is Hogwarts like? Where is it? Do you." Rose asked again, but didn't get far.
"Mia Rose my two beautiful girls, could you both go help Mummy with dinner?" asked Rick Granger.
"Okay Daddy" and skipped out of the room.
"You told Rose about your school!" he said fiercely.
"I didn't mean to Dad, it is kinda hard to try not to mention anything about magic." protested Hermione.
"You do it perfectly well around the neighbours."
"The neighbours don't live with us do they? I only see them for a while, they aren't here 24/7. Understand Dad, I've gone from 6 full years of taking about magic openly around you guys and home. Then I come home and it's all hush hush. We have muggles in the house, ones who don't know about magic. Yes Dad it is hard."
Silence
"Sorry Hermione, I didn't realise how hard it would be keep quiet. I'll tell you what, we'll tell them."
"About magic and all?"
"Yes everything, we'll make this an open family. No secrets. I'll talk to your Mother about it and deicide what to do. Now the girls and David's room, can any magic help?"
"Sorry Dad, not until next week when it's my birthday. Then I can help."
"Okay then kiddo. I guess until then Mia, Rose and David will need to stay in the living room."
"It's weird having a sisters and a brother just pop up."
"Yes Hermione it is weird and it's going to be hard to change to, but we all must try."
"I know Dad."
"RICK! COME DOWN STAIRS AND FIX THE TV," yelled Mrs Granger.
Rick looked at his daughter and then saw something he hadn't seen before: his little girl had grown up. It was just yesterday when he was taking Hermione to her first day of Kindy, She couldn't wait.
"You know what Hermione."
"What Dad."
"My little girl isn't so little anymore, she's all grown up. In to her last year of school and soon she'll be out in the big wide world."
Hermione smiled.
"RICK"
"COMING DEAR."
"Excuse me" and was gone.
Hermione made her way up to her room and sat on her bed, she pulled out a pen and her diary.
Dear Diary,
Rose called me her big sister, hear that BIG SISTER. And now instead of Paula and Rick, it Mummy and Daddy. It's like she's forgotten all about Michelle and Ross; not like they were much of parents anyway. Rose and Mia never really lived with them for long, they were always out. Out somewhere, doing something. Or they were here or with neighbours.
It's they have come to live with us, we can give them a live they could only dream of. But it's going to be hard to get used to, sharing my parents with
others.
I saw him today, with all the kids from my grade at primary school. It seems
weird looking at them all, all grown up. My friends without me. They all
went to high-school and I went to Hogwarts. I remember at the end of the
school year of grade 6, we were all so excited to be going into High- school.
We were all going to be in the same class for grade 7, that was fantastic. But
then I got the letter, the letter asking me to go to Hogwarts. Oh it was great, a chance of a different life. To learn magic.to be a witch. Mum and Dad were
so proud to have a witch in our family. They said only the smartest of us
'Normal' folk was asked to be a witch and that got me thinking. My friends
were smart, they must have got a letter too! I ran out of the house and to our
club house. I was grinning soo much and they asked what happened.
"Have you guys got the letter?" I remember shouting.
"Letter," answered Mel confused.
"For school..."
"Oh for school..yes," replied Sandy and everyone pulled out a letter.
I grinned, they had got one too. But then I noticed..they weren't the same as my letter. My envelope was thick, heavy and was made out of yellowish
parchment and the address was written in emerald-green ink, also it had no stamp. But their envelope was completely different to my one. It was light and
pure white, with the address printed on by a computer. And there was a stamp
with all the markings you get when a letter goes through the post office.
I remember grabbing James's letter and taking the letter out.
It read:

I just stood there stunned staring at James's letter, why wasn't it like mine?
"Hermione what is it?" asked Renee confused.
I was going to show them my letter, but then a voice said DON'T. I couldn't stand it, I just ran out of there. Away.to room.
Anyway diary the rest it history. I went to Hogwarts and my friends didn't. Before I left I said my Parent's were forcing me to a boarding school and I wouldn't see them until the next summer. They were all shocked, I remember
the plans we made to make me stay. But offcourse they I said they wouldn't work. I said good-bye and that was the last time I saw or talked to them.until now. I saw all of them walking together in the local shops. Sandy, James,
Theo, Jeff, Brad, Taj, Mel, Mikki, Clair, Donna and Janet. They were all there, except me. It seemed so bare without me, but as I watched them...they didn't seem to care I wasn't there. I overheard from two ladies that they were always there. Tomorrow I'm going to back there and watch again.
