Well thank to those who have reviewed. Some of them have said don't bother with it but so far the majority says keep going, so if you don't like it, don't read it! So here goes another chapter, I seem to be on a roll the past couple days… but I'm afraid I might have to stop for a while, finals this week! Aaahh! School! Oh and just one other thing to say about this. I am doing this merely for fun, I'm not aspiring to be a big hit novelist or anything so before you decide to go flaming all out on me, you'd just be wasting your time because this is all just for the hell of it really. So with that said, on with the show!
Chapter Three
The four students walked across the school out to the parking lot, talking and laughing about their day. Hermione led them to a white, semi-beat up mini-van. Ron then said in a some what shocked tone, "what happened to the Jag?!"
Hermione just laughed at him, "you really think my parents are gonna let me take that out after not driving, much less being in a car for months?!"
Izzy looked at him and laughed, "Even I knew that, I mean, you know how protective her parents are!"
Ron went slightly pink, "well… I don't know… it was just a thought."
When they were finally all in, the girls in the front, Hermione started the car and the radio blast into their ears so loudly they couldn't even tell what was playing. Ron and Harry jumped in the back seats and Izzy screamed with her hands over her ears, "Holy shit , Hermione! Are you TRYING to go deaf?!"
Hermione laughed as she turned down the volume and they then realized it was just an ad for a used car lot. "Sorry guys," she said turning to face her back seat passengers.
"Oh no, that's ok," Harry said abnormally loud, "I LOVE having prices of junky cars being blasted at me!" They all laughed, not really because of what he said, but the fact it was the most he'd spoken all day. His and Hermione's eyes met for a split second but she quickly shot her look back to Izzy.
"You know, it's been a while since I've been around this stuff. I couldn't help it on the way to school! I've missed it all!" she smiled quickly and turned the volume back up. "Oooh!" she squealed with delight, "I love this song!" Izzy and her both flashed huge smiles at one another and on cue both started singing and dancing in their seats.
1, 2, 3, take my hand and come with me
because you look so fine
and I really wanna make you mine.
I say you look so fine
that I really wanna make you mine.
Oh, 4,5,6 c'mon and get your kicks
now you don't need that money
when you look like that, do ya honey.
They both began to air guitar and continued singing. Ron and Harry looked at each other in almost disbelief as to what they were witnessing. "The two smartest girls in the class…" he said shaking his head, but grinning and laughing at the girls' behavior. As the song began to come to a close Ron chimed in, "now though that was pure entertainment, may we please get going? I'm thinking those tater-tots wouldn't have been too bad now."
"Yea," Harry agreed, "I'm starving."
After their massive fit of giggles, both girls nodded their heads and Hermione looked to her passengers. "Hmm… so what shall it be, gang? How about some Chinese take-out?"
Izzy's eyes lit up. "oooh! Yea!"
They were pulling out of the parking lot and turned onto the main street. Harry went back to his somewhat silent mood and listened more to the conversations than actually taking part in them. They kept talking about all these things Hermione hadn't been around for so long. Where was she? Why didn't she have access to all these things like phones and computers and radios?
Harry's questioning thoughts were interupted by Ron's voice, "Hey dude, we're here."
"Oh--" said Harry, "right." And the four of them all got out of Hermionie's van. Though he was the last out of the car, Harrywas the first to the door so as any decent human being would do, he waited with the door open for the others.
"Awww," said Izzy in a sweet voice, "modest AND a gentleman!" She flashed a smile back to Hermione and the hat yet another short, girly giggle fit.
"God she's beautiful." Harry thought as Hermione went in behinf her friend. Ron passed him. "Thanks, man." and they exchanged guy nods.
Once they had all ordered and quikly recieved their food, Izzy suggested that they just sit and eat in the tiny restaurant. "It's way better than eating at those tables at school." she added, sliding into a booth and making room for Ron.
"Yea, I agree," Harry said as he slid in on the other side, Hermione coming up beside him. "Just last week I almost sat on what looked like some ancient form of strawberry smoothie or something."
Hermione scrunched up her nose and stuck out her tongue to make a disgusted face. "so cute," thought Harry.
"That's something i was really loving not being aroun." Hermione laughed. Harry thought of asking about where she had been, but decided against it. It could be something very personal.
Izzy sat up quickly, as if she just remembered something extremely important, her mouth full of rice. Everyone noticed this and luahged, staring at her as she seemed to hurrilly chew and swallow.
"Very lady-like, very sexy." joked Ron.
She just smiled at him, "why thank you!" and she turned to Hermione, "so you still haven't said anything about the most important subject!"
Hermione looked curiously across the table to her friend, "What do you mean?"
Izzy just rolled her eyes and attempted to continue in a bad British accent, "Did you meet any handsome young blokes over in the land of Great Britain?"
"Oooh," Harry thought to himself, "so that's where she was-- but wait, why would she not have all the technology crap? I mean they've got that all over there-- unless... no, that couldn't be it."Harry just poked at his seseme chicken with his chopsticks and let his mind to rest as he listened to his new, well what he thought they were, friends.
Hermione threw her head back in laugher. "That's not what we sound like," she stated, her accent slipping a bit. Harry took notice of this, "wow, sexy." he smiled slightly. Hermione continued, "but as far as bloked go, certainly no Orlando Blooms, but definitly met really good guys... just, not any that were really right for me, that's all."
"Well ofcourse not," Ron said smugly, "I was back here in the good old U.S of A!" He smiled widly. Again Hermione let out a loud laugh and Izzy slapped him on the arm, "You're so full of yourself." Ron just shrugged. Harry joined in laughing with Hermione and soon all four of them were laughing out loud.
They finished up their lunched and all reached for the fortune cookies. "Harry, why don't you read your's first?" Izzy suggested, "oh-- and don't forget to add "in bed" to the end of it." she flashed a smile, "makes it more interesting."
Harry laughed and opened his cookie. He tooke the little slip of paper. He chuckled again and shook his head in disbelief. "Well what does it say??" Hermione asked urgingly.
Harry cleared his throat and read out loud, "You will encounter many new friends... in bed."
"Well," Ron chuckled, "If that's talking about us, you'll have to count me out on that one-- I just don't swing that way, dud, no offense."
Harry laughed, "None taken." He then turned to Hermione, "k-- your turn."
She cracked it open and read the paper, "You will soon enjoy time with a new conpanion in bed."
"hmm..." Izzy thought out loud, "I guess I AM going to have to keep an eye on you!" She glanced from her to Harry and laughed. Hermione's whole face went pink. "Okay," Izzy said, "my turn." she ahd already opened and ate her cookie. Her fortune said, "A flame will ignite between you and a close aquaintence." She didn't need to add the ending for everyone started laughing again. She glanced over to Ron, "Eeeww!" She whine jokingly.
After composing himself, Ron stated, "I'm sorry, but I'm afraid I've got you all beat. Ahem." He continuted in a very educated voice, "Remember this date two months from now. Your greates fantasy will come true." Everyone immidiatly cracked up. "Looks like the Ronster's getting a booty call!"
They continured laughing when Hermione suddenly noticed what time it was. "Oh shit! Guys, we're already 10 minutes late for fifth hour!"
They piled back into the van and headed back to school. "Crap," whined Izzy, again in the front seat, "I hate missing Chem. Drake's gonna kill us!"
"Yea," Harry added in a wooried voice, "We were supposed to be doing a really huge lab today too."
Hermione swallowed loudly. Ron was the only one who seemed to be calm and not bothered by any of this. "Hey, Mione," he said tapping her on the shoulder, "go park on the other side of the school. I have an idea."
