((This chapter is pretty long! hehe! I hope you enjoy it!))

"ABBY!" Hermione called to her friend when she saw her at her locker.

Abby looked up, "Hey Hermione!"

"Look what I got last night" Hermione said, handing the letter to Abby.

Abby took it and read the first page, then handed it back to Hermione.

"Your leaving..." Abby said, her eyes looked sad.

Right then Hermione thought about that...she was leaving, she had not thought about it that way.

"Well...yes..." Hermione said looking down at her feet. "But I promise I'll write to you!"

Abby looked up at her, "You will?" she asked smiling.

"Of course, and I'll see you every summer!" Hermione said smiling back.

Abby hugged Hermione, "That good, it makes me feel alot better."

Hermione hugged her back, "Yeah it makes me feel better too!"

"But I'm really happy for you cause you're a witch!" Abby said to her.

"I'm glad about it too! Just please don't tell anyone!" Hermione said to her.

"I promise! I'll never tell!" Abby said.

"Thanks Abby, you're the best!" Hermione smiled at her.

The rest of the day, Hermione did the best as she always did. But when drama came... it was another story!

"Look! How many times do I have to tell you to get it right!" Hermione yelled at the brown haired boy, that still was having trouble with that one part.

"I'm really sorry, Hermione...today I just got alot on my mind..." the boy said.

Hermione took a deep breath to calm herself down. "I understand, I have alot on my mind too." she said to the boy, meaning trying not to tell people about the letter and being a witch.

The boy sighed with relief. "That's good...so now you know how hard this is for me..."

"Well even if you have alot on your mind...you still got to get it right!" So let's try this again!" Hermione told him.

"Okay...I'll try my best" the boy said, as he went back to his spot on the stage.

After five times of trying, the boy got his part of the play right. The rest of play practice want well, but the bad thing was when they where done, the teacher told them that the only time they would only get to put it on would be next year! Which Hermione would not get to see because she would be at Hogwarts.

:Ring: The school bell rang and the day was over, drama had took forever to end for Hermione, cause she keep on thinking about missing the play.

"Hermione!"

Taking Hermione out of her thoughts, she looked up seeing Abby waiting for her at the bus bench.

"Hey Abby!" Hermione said with a smile.

"Can you come over today? I need help in Math, and we have a test on Friday." Abby asked her.

"Um...sure, I'll come over at four" Hermione told her friend.

"Okay see you then!" Abby said as she walked to her bus.

Hermione ran into her room closing her door behide her. She set her book bag on her floor by her bed. "YES!" she thought, "Thank you mum!" When her mum had picked her up from school, she had told Hermione in the car thats she did not have to do football that summer, which gave her a chance to study about her new school.

Hermione took a pen off her desk and circled the day on her calender when she would be getting out of school. Her mum had said she would take Hermione to get her books and everything else the day after she got out of school. "This day has turned out well!" she thought.

Just then she remembered about going over to Abby's at four, right now it was 3:52. Hermione picked up her book bag and walked out of her room to the kitchen, where she would find her mum.

"Mum..." Hermione said when she got to the kitchen.

"Yes Hermione?" her mum said, as she took a pot of cooked green beans off the stove.

"Um...could you run me up to Abby's?" Hermione asked her.

Her mum sighed, "Okay...I'll meet you in the car." she said as she whipped her hands on a paper towel and went to go get her coat.

Hermione walked out of the kitchen then to the car. She set in the car, waiting for her mum. When she come out she got in the car and drove Hermione to her friend's house.

"I'll pick you up at six for supper." her mum told her when the got to Abby's house.

"Okay mum, see you then!" Hermione called to her as she got out.

She watched the car drive out of sight, then she started up Abby's porch steps to her house and rang the door bell.
