The Beauty of a Bloodstaind Rose

"Hermione what in the hell was that about?" Ginny asked her friend as the walked down Diagon Alley.
"I'm sorry if I seemed to overreact Ginny but I've decided that this year I'm not going to take any-pardon my french-but I'm not going to take any of his shit." Ginny raised her eyebrows at this statement. "What?" Hermione asked.
"It's just that I have never in the length of our friendship heard you cuss!"
"Oh come off it!" Hermione snapped at her. Then when she saw the look on her friend's face she added, "Sorry Gin I'm just still a little pissed about Malfoy and how he was talking to me earlier. I-" but she was cut off when she heard a familiar voice call out her name. She turned and saw a rush of red before she was surrounded by arms.
"Oh Hermione it is so good to see you!" one of the voices amongst the surge of hugs said.
"Guys! Guys! Get off of her! She can't breathe!" Hermione heard Ginny say from behind her. Finally everyone let go and Hermione smiled at all of the faces before her.
"Hey Ron! Mrs. Weasley! Fred and George! What are you two doing here?"
"Oh. We're here to promote our new joke shop in Hogsmeade." They both held out flyers that in large red letters said, "Weasley's Wizard Wheezes! The best joke shop on this side of London!" A wide grin spread across her face as she read over the flyer.
"When did you guys get a shop in Hogsmeade?" Hermione asked them. However before either of them could answer an annoying beeping rose from Hermione's wrist. She looked at her watch and whispered, "Damn. Um sorry guys but I have to go. I promised my mom that I would be back home in time for dinner." She waved goodbye to all of her friends and turned to leave. She walked back along Diagon Alley, enjoying the sights as she went.
Just as she was about to walk through the wall back into the Leaky Cauldron she heard another call her name, "Hermione!" She turned and saw the second of her two best friends walking towards her.
"Harry! Hi! It's soo good to see you!" she said enthusiastically as the two friends hugged.
"It's good to see you too Hermione!" he replied with a grin. "So how was your summer?" She told him all about Rome and he laughed sighed and gasped at all the right moments. He also started making comments that made her laugh every now and then.
"So Harry," she added as she finished. "I have to go home for dinner."
"Oh. Ok." Harry said sounding a little disapointed.
"You want to come over? My parents would be glad to have a visitor." He appeared to be thinking all of this over before he nodded.
"Sure! Why not? I already have all of my stuff in my car so we won't have to make a stop tommrow on the way to the train station."
"Cool." The two of them left through the Leaky Cauldron and got into their cars. They drove with Hermione in the lead all the way to Hermione's house. They both parked in the drive way and then went into the house.
"Mom! Dad! I'm home!" Hermione called as she threw her keys down on a table just inside the door.
"In here!" Hermione heard her mother's voice call from the kitchen.
"Come on Harry." Hermione said to her friend as he walked through the front door. They both walked into the kitchen and as soon as they walked through the doorway they were surrounded by the blissful smell of cinnamon and apples. "Hey mom." Hermione hugged her mother as she walked past her.
"Hello dear. Who is this dear?"
"Oh hello," Harry said. "I'm Harry Potter. I'm one of Hermione's friends."
"From svhol?" Mrs Granger asked him. He nodded in response before walking over to the table and taking a seat.
"I was hoping that it might be ok with you and dad if Harry stayed here for the night and had dinner with us?"
"Sure. I'm sure your father won't mind if Harry sleeps in the guest room." Hermione hugged her mother again and then turned and sat down at the table next to Harry.
"Wow is your mom always this nice?" Harry asked.
"That's the way it has always been around here. All guests are welcome with open arms."
