Chapter Three
When Hermione rushed out onto the lawn Ron was just finishing scrubbing the table. She slowed down when she got closer.
When she was up to the table Ron looked up at her and Hermione thought she saw a slight smile that was almost to small to notice.
"I want to apologize for acting immature earlier at dinner." Hermione said.
Ron looked at Hermione as if he was waiting for her to continue.
Hermione looked a little uneasy. "A-and I hope we can still be friends."
Ron smile turned into a slight frown at the mention of the word 'friends.' Ron nodded at Hermione's apology and picked up the bucket and scrubber.
"Harry already told me what happened. Well, anyway, I better go back in and help my mum."
Hermione nodded as Ron walked towards the backdoor. She soon followed and went to also help Mrs. Weasley with the dishes.
After everything was cleaned up Ginny, Harry, Hermione, and Ron played a game of Exploding Snap. Ron was no longer acting strange around Hermione and was acting like nothing ever happened.
Hermione liked it that way. She didn't really want a relationship with Ron. Maybe they would go to a dance together but nothing more than that. Not yet, at least.
They just finished their third game of Exploding Snap when it was getting dark outside. Harry noticed the sun setting. "It is dark enough to play Quidditch now. You don't mind if we play, do you Hermione?"
Hermione shook her head. "I want to finish reading my book. I'll come outside and watch though."
So, Harry, Ron, and Ginny grabbed their brooms and went outside. Hermione was going to go upstairs to get her book, but something about the comfort of the Weasley's home made her not want to get up. The fire crackled occasionally sending sparks flying out of the fireplace.
Hermione tried to stay awake, but the big red arm chair she was sitting in made her fall into a deep sleep.
Hermione awoke about one hour later when the Weasley's and Harry returned from playing Quidditch.
"So much for coming and watching us." Ginny said jokingly as she saw Hermione sitting in the squashy armchair.
Hermione smiled weakly and stretched from the hold of the armchair.
"It is getting late." Ron said as he looked at his watch. "We better go to bed."
The other three nodded and exchanged goodnights. They all went upstairs to their designated rooms. Before Ron disappeared into his room he gave Hermione a small smile. She smiled back and walked into Ginny's room.
Before she fell asleep she thought through the days events. "It is never a dull day at the Burrow." Hermione thought to herself. Her eyelids became heavy and she drifted into a silent slumber.
Hermione woke up the next morning to the rising sun slipping in through Ginny's bedroom window.
"Good morning." Hermione said sleepily to Ginny, who also just woke up.
They dressed quickly and headed down to breakfast. Mrs. Weasley was making toast and eggs by magic as she studied a piece of parchment in her hand. She nodded in understanding as she put down the letter.
"What is it mom?" Ginny asked, hinting a bit of disappointment in her expression.
"Your father is caught in a big mess at the Ministry of Magic. This letter says he might not be back for a couple of days." Mrs. Weasley said, before checking on the toast and eggs.
Ginny motioned for Hermione to sit down at the table. When Mrs. Weasley called breakfast they could hear Ron and Harry running down the stairs. They said good morning to Mrs. Weasley and seated themselves at the table.
"Where is dad?" Ron asked his mum before he helped himself to the food on the table.
"He is caught at the Ministry." Mrs. Weasley said for the second time that morning.
Ron nodded unhappily. The breakfast table was just as silent as the dinner table was the night before. Instead of Hermione to break the silence, it was Mrs. Weasley.
"I was thinking we could go to Diagon Alley today to get your school supplies."
Everybody else nodded in agreement and hurried to finish their breakfast. It wasn't much later when they were all in front of the fireplace with their school lists.
They took turns stepping into the fireplace and shouting 'Diagon Alley' before they disappeared into the fireplace.
Mrs. Weasley was the last to leave. She looked at the clock on the wall. Aruthur Weasley's name was pointed at 'work.' She sighed and said 'Diagon Alley' into the back of the fireplace.
This chapter is a little shorter then the other ones because I thought this was a good place to stop. Thanks for reading! Please review and tell me what you think!
