Ch. 2 The Offer

"8 Galleons for this stupid plant…You better be worth it." She said as she set the plant down.

It wasn't all that bad though. They were called Lilorchids, a mix breed of lilies and orchids, suppose to contain some herbal remedies in the roots.

"And I've got about an hour to spare." She looked around her room to find something to do when her comfortable bed lured her to it.

"I s'pose a little nap won't hurt." She slip into her bed and pulled the huge blanket over her head and was out cold.

[[ Leaky Cauldron ]]

"Things sure have changed around here. Harry and Ginny getting married, Fred and George have a successful joke shop and…Hermione… I need to come back more often…" He thought as he took another sip of his fire whiskey.

Just then a stunning vixen came waltzing towards him. "Aren't you Oliver Wood?"

He looked up to her. "Guilty."

"I knew it! Can I have you autograph?" It was more of a demand rather than a question.

"Sure." He was use to this sort of things. Especially where she was asking him to sign. (A/N: HeHe)

She stuck around a bit flirting with him as he saw no harm in flirting with her a bit too. "Thank you for the autograph cutie." She said seductively and gave him a kiss on the cheek.

He smiled and waved her good-bye.

"Hmm…I wonder what Hermione likes…" Just then he caught himself. "Whoa! This is Hermione Granger we're talking about! The know it all bookworm, the one that save you're butts and help you win the House Cup your 7th year, the one that followed Harry and Ron everywhere…but now, she's amazingly beautiful…not that she wasn't before. But…" He sighed. "She's breathtaking…"

Oliver sat at the bar for a while, compromising what he should and shouldn't feel.

"Well, I better get going." Oliver stood up, paid the bar tender and apparated to the burrow.

[[ Hermione's Room ]]

Hermione stirred under her blanket as she felt something or someone poking the side of her stomach.

"Hermione, are you ill?"

"Oh bugger! What…?" She peeked through an opening of her blanket, it was Neville.

"Well, it's almost 8:30...and… Ginny and Luna were talking and they started to wonder about you. So Luna asked me to check up on you."

She shot up out of bed. "8:30!" He nodded. "I over slept again! I need an alarm clock!"

"What's an alarm clock?"

"Nothing, um…lemme go fresh up a bit ." She rolled out of bed and headed to her bathroom. "By they way, can you get that plant on my desk so that way I won't forget it."

"Sure thing." He walked over to it. "Bloody hell! You got them a Lilorchid! This is rare!"

"Oh it isn't that big of a deal." Hermione said coming out of the bathroom wearing some sand blasted jeans and a white sweater with her hair in a loose bun held together by a chopstick.

"Not a big deal?! The roots are great for easing pain quickly, even the effects of a crucio curse!" He exclaimed. It was no surprise to Hermione how much Neville knew. He had always excelled in Herbology.

"Well we better get going." Hermione said and the two walked to the fireplace. She grabbed a hand full of floo powder, tossed it into the fireplace and said. "The Burrow."

[[ The Burrow ]]

"Thanks for coming to get me." Hermione said, hugged him and kissed him on the cheek.

Meanwhile, the guys were coming in from a small game of quidditch.

"Haven't played that hard since school." George said as he and Oliver put away all the quidditch stuff.

"You haven't lost your touch as a beater."

"Thanks mate!" He grinned silly.

It went quiet for a while.

"So, you fancy Hermione?"

"Huh?! What?! What makes you think that?!"

"Maybe it's the googoily eyes you were making earlier."

He shook his head and smirked. "That obvious huh?"

"If it were any more obvious, I'd be the Ministry of Magic by now." Oliver looked at him a bit confused, but shrugged it off.

"You should ask her out." The two started to walk towards the house.

"I can't…"

"Why not?"

"Well…I… I don't know…I mean, what if she's seeing someone? Is she dating anyone?"

"Hm…I don't know, it was the first time I've talked to her since the fall of you know who."

"Oh."

"You should ask her out anyway, I highly doubt she's seeing anyone. She's always so busy according to Ron."

Feeling a bit more hopeful, Oliver responded, "Yeah, I think I will. I'll ask when I see her."

The two walked through the front door just in in time to see Hermione arrive. George elbowed Oliver in the chest. Just as he was about to walk over, he saw Hermione hug some guy and kissed him before they both walked into the kitchen.

All hope fled from his body. "Sorry mate." George said as he patted his shoulder trying to comfort him.

[[ Burrow Kitchen ]]

"Hermione!" Ginny shouted as she jumped on her and nearly knocking her down. "Are you okay? I was getting worried about you!"

Hermione laughed as she tried to pry Ginny off of her. "I'm fine, I just lost track of time."

"Since when did you loose track of time 'Mione?"

"Harry!" She jumped and hugged her long time friend. "How are you?"

"I'm great. You look wonderful." She blushed slightly.

Since the day they all graduated, Hermione hasn't been able to keep in contact with anyone. Except Ron, up to today, if he didn't know an answer to something, he'd asked her.

"Oh! Congrats you two! Hey Neville give me that plant."

He walked over to them leaving Luna to look over the latest issue of The Quibbler. He and Luna have been dating for a while now. She is the Co-Editor and he was a reporter for the strange herbs yet useful section.

"Here yah go 'Mione."

"Thanks Neville." She turned to Harry and Ginny handed them their gift.

"These are beautiful!" Ginny squealed.

"Uh…yeah, they sure are…um…what are they?" Harry asked examining the exotic plant.

"There called Lilorchids, I'm sure Neville could tell you more about them."

Just then Mrs. Weasley came in from the backyard. "Dinner is served!"

Everyone moved from the house to the backyard. There was one long table, like the house tables at Hogwarts, enough to fit everyone.

Everybody took their seats and the to-be-Potter's took the end. Hermione, however, just took a seat at the first available one she saw, which unfortunately happened to be next to Lavender Brown.

Don't get her wrong, Lavender is a good person and dating her best friend Ron. But she could not stand the fact that the girl was still all, well…to feminine for her own good.

"Oh my gawd! Hermione? You look wonderful!" Hermione smiled out of politeness as Lavender continued on with her rant. "…and your hair! It lovely! Are you wearing any make up? Cause it looks so natural. How do you do that? I mean I tried…"

Oliver was in a deep conversation with the twins and didn't notice who he sat down next to. Until she reached over, not looking, for the salt and accidentally bumped into him.

"Oh sorry!" She apologized automatically.

"Don't worry about it." He turned only to see Hermione. "Oh, well, um…I'd better get a different seat so he can…"He was half way up when Hermione reached out grasping his arm.

"No, no! Please sit!" She plead, hoping that he'd save her from Lavender's raving.

He looked at her a bit confused and was a bit hesitant, but who could refuse the huge chocolate eyes of hers. He sat back down and felt a bit uneasy and George and Fred weren't helping either.

She didn't know what to say or talk to him about now that he was here. Of all these years she's known him, she's never been able to get a decent conversation with him. If she ever did, it was always about quidditch and heaven knows that that she of all people was never truly interested in the game quidditch. The only reasons she's ever attended any games was one, a friend of hers played for a team or two, Harry and Ron dragged her along.

"So, Hemione… aren't you seeing someone?" Oliver accidentally blurted out. "Way to go you nitwit."

Hermione was a little taken back by the sudden question. "W-What?"

"Great now she must think you're a lunatic for asking that."

"He asked if you're seeing someone, you know like dating." Fred clarified for her.

She smiled at Fred signaling to him that she knew what he meant. She open her mouth ready to give her answer when the question pop in her head. "Who wants to know?"

"Uh…never mind….forget I even asked." Oliver said and quickly turned to his plate and suddenly finding it very interesting.

Hermione looked at him in curiosity for a while until the Weasley twins decided to cut in and ease the tension.

"Hey you two want to help us with something?" the two said in unison. They now had Oliver and Hermione's attention.

She eyed them suspiciously. "Depends…"

"Yeah…depends…"Oliver added.

(A/N: Okay this part might get a bit confusing. The twins are about to do that talking and finishing each others sentence. So to make it a bit easier on me and you Fred will be in bold and George will be in the bold italics and both of them together at once will be in regular font.)

"Well…you see we have created a new item to add to our wonderful collection of tricks…" Fred started.

"And we though of giving to two's the honor of trying it out first." George finished.

"Why don't you two test it on yourselves?" Hermione said remembering the time at Hogwarts when they were testing a few of their jokes on innocent first years.

"Well, you see my dear ole 'Mione, that's the problem there."

Oliver and Hermione looked confused.

"The new invention that we have made is to change one's appearance to look like the other…"

" Such as hair, eyes, fingers, toes, noses…"

"The works!"

" Fred and I looked exactly alike as you can tell…"

" So it'd be hard to see if it actually works."

"I don't know about this you guys." Hermione stated.

Oliver however, thought it would actually be fun. "I'm in."

" Great! What about you Hermione?"

"I don't think it's such a good idea…" She replied.

" C'mon 'Mione, it's not like we're in school anymore…" She raised a brow.

" Students in school…"

The three looked at her, Fred and George with pleading, bulgy eyes.

"Oh stop looking at me like that! Fine! I'll do it."

(A/N:: Okay, well I do have a third chapter in the works, almost done. But it might be delayed a bit, because being the procrastinator that I am, I haven't updated on the other story I've been writing. So I'm gonna finish up that story, I only have like 3 more chapter to do for it. BUT don't worry! I will finish this story! I have lots of ideas for this and it's just going to get funnier, hopefully.
