Summer Soft Chapter Three: loverwuddles pill

"Hermione Granger, wake up now!" Her mother screamed from the foot of the stairs.

Hermione stirred in her once neat bed, now it was all piles of sheets and her comforter had some

how made its way to becoming her pillow, "Hermione! You have three minutes to get up and

dressed before we leave for Diagon Alley!" Hermione opened her eyes and looked at her alarm

clock.

'It was supposed to go off three hours ago!' Hermione thought this as she ran to her

dresser and picked out a pair of shorts and a tank top. She managed to get them on and then

almost tripped down the stairs while trying to cox her hair into staying a tight bun on her head.

"Lets go, come on, we are already late!" Hermione's mother seemed to be having the

same problem with her hair, "Well, that's as good as it's going to get. Hermione run to the car

and put this in the trunk, your father's already there." Hermione rushed outside, told her father to

pop the trunk and practically thru her suitcase in it. She quickly closed it ran to the back-door of

the house, and pulled her mother out of the house, then ran to the car opened the door and

climbed in.

"Diagon Alley, here we come." Her father pulled out of the drive-way and drove down

the road. Hermione was watching intently when she had a sudden urge to fall asleep.

'No, I have to stay up.' Hermione told herself this three times before drifting off to a

deep, deep sleep. Hermione woke up a half an hour later, in front of the Leaky Cauldron. She

then suddenly saw Ron and Harry running to her. Ron had definitely grown. He was now more

muscular and Harry seemed to be the same as last year, except he was getting a 5:00 o'clock

shadow.

"Hi Ron, Hi Harry!" Hermione was so happy to see both of them, especially Ron.

"Hi Hermione, you have certainly grown." Ron was looking her up and down.

"Yeah, Hermione, watch out Hogwarts' guys, Hermione Granger is back!" Hermione

laughed, Harry has definitely not changed.

"Hermione look we got you a drink, from a new shop down near Florish and Botts.

Here." Fred and George ran over and handed hermione a lemonade.

"thank you." She took a sip and she felt total and utter peace. She actually felt like she

was dreaming, and all she could dream about was Ronald Weasley.

"Ron? Ron, where are you." Hermione was saying this over and over. She was

surrounded by white walls, white tiled floors, a white ceiling. Nothing was in the room besides

her and a white rocking chair on the side of the room. She walked around the walls looking for

doors or masked openings. Once she had gone around once she had not found one opening, just

walls, "Ron?" Then she thought to herself, 'Why am I calling for Ron, where are my parents?'

She tried to call for her parents but all that came out was, "Ron?"

"Ron? Ron? Ron where are you, Ron?"

"Hermione, I'm right here." She suddenly saw light and colors and then Ronald

Weasley's smiling face, "You were dreaming."

"And talking too, 'Ron? Ron? Ron, where are you, Ron.' It was so romantic." George

laughed practically in Hermione's drowsy expression.

"Oh my gosh," Hermione looked around her, she was lying on Ginny Weasley's bed, "I

am so embarrassed." She settled her head into her hands as she sat up, "Wait, how did I get

here?"

"You don't remember?" Fred pushed his twin brother, George out of the way and started

to tell hermione everything that had happened only two hours ago.

"We met your mum and dad in Florish and Botts, you were still very tired, they said you

had fallen asleep on the drive here. Then you started to look at Ron really funny." George

Interrupted with the words Hermione cringed at, "Like you were in 'Love'" George and Fred

laughed so hard they started to gag on the word, "love, Love, Love"

"Then we came here. you said you were tired and then went to bed." Ron said trying to

talk over George and Fred's laughter.

"Okay, everybody out, this is my room." Ginny turned up in the doorway and every

single man walked out, they looked seemingly afraid. After they all left, Hermione was left, on

the bed, tears welling in her eyes.

"Why did I act like a total dunce and why can't I remember anything?" Hermione was

looking at Ginny intensively.

"Well, Fred and George, left out one minor detail. They gave you a drink from a new

shop near Florish and Botts. They snuck a loverwuddles pill in your drink. It's new, they just

made it up for their Joke Shop. The first person you lay eyes on after taking the pill, you fall

under a love spell for two hours."

"Oh my gosh. Ron must think I am a total idiot." Hermione put her head in her hands

again and just stared at the wooden floor.

"Actually, he seemed to like it." Ginny admitted smiling at the reaction she got from

Hermione, "You like him don't you?"

"What? What, are you talking about. I don't like anybody especially your brother."

Hermione was blushing, but was desperately trying to stop.

"Okay, whatever you say, Hermione. Mum, is making supper she said to send you

down when you get settled." Ginny then stood up and walked out of the room, leaving

Hermione with a confused look plastered on her face.

"I am going to definitely have to pour my own drinks from now on." Hermione stood up

and walked over to her suitcase opened it and started to unpack everything into the extra draw

that Ginny had cleaned out for Her. After she was done she walked cautiously down the stairs

and found herself staring at every single Weasley face sitting at the kitchen table waiting for her

to come and join them.

"Took you long enough, I was about to start eating without you." Ginny said winking at her.

"Sorry, I had a lot of things to unpack." Hermione took her seat and like it was a signal

that a war was over, everybody dug into the feast that lay before them.

"Drink, Hermione?" Fred asked offering her a cup filled to the rim with pumpkin juice.

"Umm, No thanks, I'm not that thirsty." Hermione was looking at the cup and trying to

figure out if there was any loverwuddles pills in it.

"So, Hermione dear, how has your summer been going?" Mrs. Weasley asked before

stuffing a piece of bread into her mouth.

"fine, just been reading and doing all my summer homework." Hermione helped herself

to some turkey and corn.

"Did you finish?" Ron asked. She knew why he would be asking this, he hadn't finished

his yet.

"what do you think?" Hermione giggled. A smile spread across his face.

"Oh, Hermione, we got your letter about your pre-graduation present. No Problem. I told

everyone about what a prom is and they all agreed to have one. Fred, George, Ginny, Ron, you,

and I, are going to have to invite people. We only have two weeks before school starts." Harry

was talking more to his mashed potatoes than to Hermione, she then realized why. Ginny was

looking at him.
"That's great Harry, thanks a lot." Then as silence fell Hermione thought to herself, 'I

guess I'm not the only one in love.'
