A few days after Hermione had received her Head Boy letter, it was time to
leave for Hogwarts. She had packed her bags and loaded them into her shiny
new Mercedes, a gift from her parents for becoming Head Girl. "Ok Daddy I'm
all packed!" Hermione told him and gave him a hug, "I'll miss you, and by
the way, take care of Mummy. It breaks her heart to see me leave for so
long" Mr. Granger chuckled. "You bet I will, sweetie. Have fun!" Hermione
walked up to her mother that was starting to cry. "O come on Mummy! I'll be
alright! I'm coming home for Christmas and I'll write to you, I promise!"
Hermione gave her a long hug. "T-t-take c-c-care o-of your-yourself!"
sobbed her mother. She always broke down when it was time for Hermione to
leave. Hermione hopped into her car. She backed up out of the drive-way and
onto the street. Hermione waved, "Bye! I love you! I'll be back for
Christmas!" She drove away. Mr. Granger led his wife in-side. "She'll be
Ok, as usual,"he told her.
About 45 minutes later, Hermione was very near to Platform 9 ¾ . "Well, Hermione, let's hope Harry likes you this year" she told herself. She parked her car and pulled her things out of the trunk. Then she automatically locked her car. She dragged her things to a few feet away from the barrier. Then she took at it. Seconds later, there she was, standing right in-front of the Hogwarts Express. She looked around to find any-one she knew. Then she noticed someone with red hair. The Weasleys! "Ron!" she yelled. He turned. "Oh Hey Hermione!" Ron called back! Hermione walked up to him and smiled, "It's so good to see you again! What's new?" "Well.", he lead her to Mrs. Weasley who was holding a small girl in her arms. She only looked a few weeks old, but Hermione could see the red hair starting to sprout on her head. "You have another sister?" Hermione was so excited. "Her name is Abigail, well Abby for short," said Mrs. Weasley, "Isn't she adorable?" "Oh Extremely!" Hermione replied with glee. "What's new with you?"Ron asked. "Ehh.Well.I got..I got Head Boy." she replied trying not to sound too boastful. "Really? That's wonderful! Except for we won't be able to be together as much, but Congratulations anyhow!" "The train is leaving soon", Mr. Weasley told them. They borded the train, the train and Hermione bid farewell to Ron and walked into her assigned compartment. Then she gasped.
