Chapter 16
Hermione knocked twice on the door in front of her. She stepped back and looked up at the house. It had undergone a major renovation. Fred and George were now wealthier then ever. Bill had been promoted as VP of Gringott's and of course, Arthur being the Minister of Magic didn't hurt the finances either. He wanted to move the family to a new house, but Molly refused. She didn't want to leave the Burrow. So, the house was no longer lopsided and looked like a mansion. Well, it was a mansion.
"Hermy!" she barely noticed the door open and the small girl grasping on to her leg.
"Hey there Summer!" she picked up the two year old and kissed her on her head. She was a beautiful little girl with red ringlets of hair, "Hi Bill! She is getting so big!" she exclaimed as she gave Bill a hug with her free arm.
"Yeah, don't remind me!" he took Summer from Hermione's arms, "Go tell everyone one Hermy's arrived, alright sweety?"
"Yes daddy!" and the little girl hurried out of the room.
"So how is Hogwarts treating you?" Bill asked.
"OH, well. It's better, I am really enjoying it more than at first. The students and I are adjusting to each other very well."
"OH! HERMIONE!!" Molly Weasley entered the room.
"Hi, Molly," and Hermione received a bone breaking hug from her, "Where is everyone?"
"All in the backyard dear, go on back. I will take your things up to Ginny's old room."
"Thanks Molly," and she proceeded to follow Bill outside.
She walked outside to a very wonderful sight. Harry and Ron were in what seemed to be a pretty amusing conversation. Ginny and Luna were also in conversation, sitting on Harry and Ron's laps. Fred and George were huddling over something on the table, probably a new invention. Bill had reached his wife Hannah, and wrapped his arms around her. They kissed and began to watch Summer playing with Crookshanks and Ginny's cat, Taffy in the snow.
"Taking good care of Crookshanks for me Summer?" she shouted.
At that, everyone got up to greet Hermione. She was so happy to be with them all again. Everyone asked about Hogwarts. They seemed a bit worried, but she assured them all was much better there and she was very happy there.
"And Malfoy, is he being decent?" asked Fred.
"Oh, yeah. He is a different person, Fred. A really good man now," answered Hermione. Some of them gave her a puzzled look at this, but most ignored it.
"And Snape?" asked George, "Haven't seen him since the end of the war, still a git?"
They continued asking Hermione all about Hogwarts. Finally, Mrs. Weasley relieved her with the announcement of dinner. They all walked to the kitchen and sat at the large table, "Where's dad, mum? I thought he was gonna make it home in time for dinner," asked Ron as he turned his head to the family's magical clock, "Ah, he's on his way, should we wait?"
Everyone looked at Ron in shock, "You, wait to eat?"
Ron blushed, "Well, I- HEY DAD!"
At that, Arthur Weasley entered the kitchen, "Hello hello! Wow Molly," he kissed his wife, "this all looks wonderful!"
He greeted everyone and sat at the Head of the table. Everyone was speaking with full mouths and happy faces. Hermione looked around her and suddenly felt guilty. Draco was at the castle by himself. Well, he had the other professors, but Hermione hardly thought he could stand spending time with them for too long. She began to feel herself wish to see him. She missed him. It hadn't been but a few hours since she saw him, since, she said it. By accident of course, but was it?
flashback
She looked at Draco. She had just unintentionally said 'I love you' to Draco Malfoy. But she didn't regret it, not really. What did that mean? Does she really love him? She smiled at him and kissed his lips. At first it was soft, and sweet. Then, Hermione began to feel more passion. He pressed himself against her and the kisses were deep. Butterflies flew around in her stomach. He turned her around and sat her up on her desk. He places himself between her legs and continued kissing her. He moved his kisses down her neck. She grabbed at the back of his neck. He mouth moved back up to her lips.
"Hermione, hello?" Ginny was waving a hand in front of Hermione's face.
She jumped back to reality, "Ginny, what?" She looked at her friend who had a curious look in her eyes.
"You were just off in some other world, what were you thinking about?"
Hermione blushed, "I will tell you later, okay? When no one is around," she whispered to Ginny.
Ginny smiled, "Definitely, it's about, him, isn't it?"
"WHO'S HIM," shouted Harry from the other side of Ginny.
"None of your business Harry!" Ginny rolled her eyes, "I swear that boy has selective hearing, anyways, there is something I need to tell you as well," she winked at Hermione and turned to Harry. Ginny kissed her husbands neck and at that, Harry put an arm around his wife's waist and placed his free hand over his wife's belly.
Hermione smiled. She had a good feeling that she knew what Ginny was going to tell her.
Whew, is it hot in here?? Anyways, we are getting to the good stuff! Enjoy the chappie, R&R!
