"Hermione" Harry said in awe as he looked at her. She had grown up a
lot over the summer. She was taller, her hair still had curls but they were
tamer, and she also had filled out in all the right places.
"Hello Harry" Hermione said looking at Harry very firmly. Harry noticed this and was about to ask her if something what wrong when...
"Didn't feel like saying hi to me did you!! You walked right past me without even saying hi. What's your deal?" Hermione practically shouted at Harry.
"Hermione, I'm sorry, I must not have recognized you, you've changed." Harry said.
"We've all changed Harry, it's called growing up" Hermione said still standing in the doorway.
Harry scooted over in his seat. "Why don't you sit down, We've barely talked at all this summer."
"Yeah Hermione, sit with us, it wouldn't be the usual train ride without you" Ron said with a mouth full of candy. This made Hermione smile and she took a seat next to Harry.
"Sorry I was so firm with you Harry, I just couldn't believe that you would walk right by me."
"I swear I didn't realize you were there" Harry said in a pleading voice. Just then Ginny decided to speak up. "Leave it to a man not to notice anything" she said causing herself and Hermione to giggle.
The next hour or so was spent with the four of them going over what they did that summer. Harry's story was pretty much uneventful, and Hermione didn't say much, just listened. Ron and Ginny had occupied most of the conversation, telling all about their time in America.
"It was amazing really, do you know they drive on the opposite side of the road" Ginny said.
Suddenly a small beep was heard.
"What's that?" Ron asked. Everyone started looking around
"Sorry, that's just my alarm on my watch going off," Hermione said, "I didn't realize how much time had gone by. I have to go" Hermione said trying to leave without much questions being asked. She didn't get far.
"Going to meet William Hyde?" Harry asked.
Hermione turned around and saw three eager faces staring at her.
"How did you know about him?" she asked.
"With the way you two were going on, how did he not know about him" Ron said
Ginny decided to speak up in Hermione defense. "Ron stop, you're just jealous. Hermione ignore them, go see William and tell him I said hi." Ginny said.
"Thanks Ginny, and would you two stop looking so annoyed I'll see you when we get off the train." Hermione said directing her comment towards her two best friends.
After Hermione left there wasn't much said in the compartment shared by the boy who lived and the two red headed Wheaslys. A few other classmates stopped by to chat, such as Neville, Seamus, and Lavender. Ron seemed especially happy to see her. Harry had to hold back a laugh as Ron attempted to talk to her without stuttering. Lavender didn't stay long, and Ron was more than upset to see her go but his anger was directed towards another face that neither Ron nor Harry was hopping to see. Draco.
"Hey Potter, Wheasly, Wheasly jr." Draco said with a smirk.
"What do you want Malfoy" Harry said standing up and meeting Malfoys gaze.
"Sit down Potter, don't try to make a hero of yourself." Draco said, "I saw Granger, she was looking pretty comfortable in the arms of a Ravenclaw."
"Malfoy did you come here to tell us something" Ron said trying to get rid of the Slytherin.
"Just thought I'd let you know to watch your backs this year," Malfoy said. Then continued as he saw the death stares he was getting from the three. "Don't take that as a threat, it's more of a warning. Let's just say that my father has connections and he found out that something is going down this year, so like I said watch your backs." With that Draco left with the same smirk he always wore."
Harry sat there very confused. He wasn't confused over the idea of something happening at Hogwarts. Something always happened, he half expected that something would be going on. But why would Malfoy warn him?
"Evil that one" Ron said.
:Ron, why would Malfoy warn us if there were trouble" Harry asked
"Good question, he wouldn't help us unless it benefited him in some way" Ron said.
"Guys the train stopped, were home" Ginny said.
"Hello Harry" Hermione said looking at Harry very firmly. Harry noticed this and was about to ask her if something what wrong when...
"Didn't feel like saying hi to me did you!! You walked right past me without even saying hi. What's your deal?" Hermione practically shouted at Harry.
