Chapter Four- First Transfiguration Class and First Suspicions

"Hey Hermione," Lily said at about nine in the morning.

"Huh?" Hermione mumbled half asleep.

"Looks like someone likes you." she said pointing to the bedside. She looked and saw a red rose and a note.

Hermione, This rose is as beautiful as you. Can't wait to see you today.
Love,
Remus

All Hermione could do was smile as she read the note over and over in her head.

"Who's it from?" asked a curious Lily and Hermione handed her the note. "He's sweet," she said and handed the note back to Hermione.

"Yeah he is," she said and got dressed. "I'll see you later Lily," she said and headed downstairs.

The Marauders were sitting down on the couch waiting for her. Before anyone could say good morning, Hermione walked over to Remus and gave him a short yet loving kiss and she whispered, "Thank you," with a smile.

Remus just smiled and watched her as Peter began to complain about his stomach.

"I'm starving. Can we go and eat now?" asked Peter in a whiny voice.

"Um...Yeah, sure." Sirius said, still watching Hermione and Remus.

They walked downstairs, Hermione and Remus holding hands. All of them spent the rest of the day showing Hermione around and it was funny, she mostly knew all of it already.

"Lessons start today for you. Are you ready?" Remus asked her.

"Yeah, I have Transfiguration first." she said.

"We all do," James said.
"Oh, good." she said as they left the Great Hall into the corridors heading towards the Transfiguration classroom.

"You will do fine," Remus said and reassured her with a light kiss.

"Thanks," she said and grabbed his hand.

"Okay, I don't get something. Remus hasn't dated for the past six years, then Hermione comes along and has barely been here for three days, and they are already going out." Sirius said with a confused look on his face.

They both shrugged and stepped into Professor McGonagall's classroom.

"Good morning class," McGonagall greeted and began her morning lesson plans."We are going to continue reviewing things from last year, so pick a partner."

Remus glanced at Hermione and smiled,"Partner?" he asked.

"Partner." she responded smiling just as equally. She turned to James for a moment."James, why don't you ask Lily?"

"You know, I think I will. Hey Evans!" James yelled over to Lily.

"Now lets begin, now that you have your partners." McGonagall said.

They spent the rest of the class reviewing things she already knew and she breezed through all of them.

James had finally convinced Lily to be his partner and wanted to take it one step further and make her his girlfriend.

Hermione had a blast the whole time she was there with them and enjoyed their company. She was really glad she had the chance to go back in time. She was facing a challenge now. If she could go back home to her own time, would she actually want to?
