Harry was awoken by loud banging on his bedroom door. Then he heard his Uncle Vernon yelling. "Come downstairs boy!" He reluctantly pulled on a shirt and went downstairs. When he got there he saw Dudley and Vernon dressed in the same ridiculas outfit, khaki pants, a black shirt and puffy orange vest, and a bright yellow hard hat. It took all he had not to laugh. "Yeah ?"he asked. "Your cousin and I are going to oversee the construction of some new builings being added on to my companys campus. You are to stay here, in this house and do whatever Petunia needs you to do. You got that ?" Vernon said with a snarl. "Yes." Harry replied. and then he thought to himself, well too bad they won't be ran over by a truck , he chuckled to himself, eyeing the orange vests. His uncle and cousin then waved goodbye to Petunia and he followed her into the kitchen. As he looked around for something that needed to be done, he felt very akward. He had never had to be alone with his aunt. She was wiping off the stove and he hesitantly walked up to her. "Um.." he said. She turned to look at him and she said, "If you stay out of my way, i'll stay out of yours." Then she went to clean the oven. As Harry started to walk back up the stairs the doorbell rang. "Please get that," his aunt yelled, with her head inside the oven. Harry turned and walked towards the door. He opened it only to be knocked down. "Harry ! It's so great to see you !"Hermione then climbed off of him and helped him up. "Hermione! What are you doing here? I thought we weren't going to the burrow for another 2 weeks." Harry asked rubbing his back, it was hurting from where it had hit the floor. "Well, I told you I would see you sooner didn't I ?" She replied, grinning mischevieously. It was then that Harry noticed two people standing behind Hermione, and one of them was the most beautiful girl that he had ever seen. Hermione followed Harry's gaze and said, "Harry, these are my two cousins, Shaylie and Natalie. Shaylie is 22 and Natalie is our age." The youger one shyly said,"Hi." The older one gathered him in a big hug and said "Hey how ya doin?" Harry stared at Hermione with a confused look on his face. "Why..but..I.." he stuttered. She just laughed and said, " Well, are you going to invite us in or not ?" Harry grinned and opened the door wider. The three girls stepped in and he closed it behind them. "So Harry, where are your aunt and uncle?" "Well my uncle is at work and he took my cousin with him, and my aunt is in the kitchen." He was still very confused as to why Hermione and her cousins were here. "Oh, well she'll do." Hermione said while she walked towards what she saw was the kitchen. "Wait Hermione," Harry said, grabbing her arm. " What do you need to talk to her for?" " You'll see." was all she said and then she went right into the kitchen with her cousins following close behind her. He stood there for a minute but then hurried into the kitchen after the three girls.
