Here we go, chapter 2. Hopefully the plot should start here so I will be able to have more ideas…
Chapter 2
Hermione was so used to being in towns and cities with more designer shops than supermarkets, so coming to Hogsmead where there were exactly no designer shops was a very nice change for her.
"Sorry H, no Prada or Gucci here I'm afraid!" Harry said reading her mind.
"I know thank god, I'm fed up with those posh assistants looking down there nose at you." Hermione smiled.
Her smile didn't last long though because no longer was she just Hermione Granger, she was Hermione Granger the famous singer, or Hermione Granger the one on the posters. Within two minutes fans were surrounding here and asking for autographs and to have their photos taken. Hermione couldn't believe it; this was worse than anywhere else she had been.
"I though you had lessons now." Hermione shouted to Ron.
"We do, these people aren't Hogwarts students." He shouted back looking very confused.
Hermione crawled out through the crowds and ran as far away from Hogsmead as she could, Harry and Ron following as fast as they could. The finally stopped when they could no longer hear footsteps following them and screaming fans.
"What was that about?" Hermione asked breathlessly.
"I honestly do not have a clue." Ron said looking directly at her.
"I think I might though." Harry said looking glumly in the direction of Hogsmead.
"You do?" Hermione looked at Harry willing him to carry on.
"Well McGonagall said something early about some students coming for a exchange type thing I think but I'm not sure it might have just been my imagination."
"An exchange? That's amazing." Hermione started walking back towards the village and rushed back to Hogwarts through the passageway as soon as possible being followed very quickly by Harry and Ron.
The exchange students gathered in the great hall and Hermione hound it so hard to go anywhere without being followed Fred and George Weasley had to escort her to and from lessons as bodyguards.
One day as she was walking to History of Magic she found herself alone. She had no idea where Fred and George had got to but she walked on anyway. As she turned the corridor a bat swooped out from behind a pillar. Hermione fell back but was caught by a boy she had never seen before. He looked foreign so she presumed he must have been on the exchange. He was very good looking with well defined muscles and a broad smile. With his help she found herself back on two feet.
"Thank you," Hermione looked into his eyes they were dark brown with specks of darker brown in them.
She suddenly remembered where she was going and quickly pulled herself together.
"I really have to go now, I'm already late for class," she turned to walk but then quickly looked back and said "Thanks." He smiled and she smiled back.
"I'm Christoph by the way," he said making Hermione's heart melt, it was the first time he had spoken but it was definitely worth it, "I see you around maybe?" He said in a foreign accent.
"Yes, erm I'll meet you her in an hour after my class if that's ok?" Hermione looked straight at him.
"I would like that much." And with that he walked off.
The lesson went by in a blur, Hermione didn't listen remember anything about the lesson just that she kept thinking about Christoph. Christoph, she kept repeating his name over and over again, she loved they way it rolled off her tongue.
However, she didn't have to wait long to see him again as just as she left the classroom she bumped into him.
"Have you noticed that every time we meet I crash into you?" Hermione smiled as they walked towards the great hall for lunch.
"Yes, I think you are always in a rush, yes?" Christoph smiled and she smiled back.
Hermione nodded and looked away.
"I am always busy nowadays, it's either recording a new track, doing an interview or just doing work."
"That must be terrible for you, maybe one day; I take you somewhere where nothing troubles you?" He looked deep into her eyes.
"Yes, I would like that very much indeed, thank you."
Hermione had to go to London for three days to do an interview with Witch Weekly so she had yet again asked Harry not to do anything stupid while she was away and to wait until she was back as she didn't want to miss the fun.
Hermione was on the way to Dumbledore's office to ask permission to leave school, when she saw Christoph walking the other way.
"Christoph!" she called out. He turned and walked quickly towards her.
"I have to go away for three days, so I won't see you for ages so I guess I am just saying goodbye for now anyway."
"Ok, but I see you very soon yes? As soon as you return you see me yes?" Christoph asked hurriedly.
"Of course," Hermione said and quickly kissed his cheek affectionately.
She walked quickly past him and went straight to Dumbledore's office with out looking back.
"Password, erm password what could it be?" Hermione wondered memorizing her local sweet shop back at her house, "Candy cane…Gobstopper…Lollypop…Wine gum…" the staircase started to turn "mmmmm wine gum strange choice," Hermione thought as she stepped onto the stone staircase.
When she got to the top she knocked on the door and walked into Dumbledore's office.
"Hermione, how are you?" Dumbledore asked smiling broadly at her.
"Fine thank you, but I need three days off school for an interview if that's ok with you, sorry that it's such short notice but I only found out this morning and I …"
Dumbledore lifted his hand to stop her going on any further and said "Hermione that's fine of course you can have three days off."
"Thank you Professor, I won't ask again for a long time honestly."
"Somehow I don't quite believe you Miss. Granger, here use my fireplace to get to wherever you have to be, there is some floo in the pot above the chimney and here is your belongings you packed…Alamo Lugiaga" he said and waving his wand Hermione's bags appeared next to her.
"Thank you again sir," She said and steeped into the fire place, "Witch Weekly office" and seconds later she found herself staring at a very colorfully dressed witch with small glasses resting on her nose with her hair tied loosely in a ponytail.
"Hello Hermione, I'm Miss D. Kingsward, I'll be interviewing you."
Hehe, well there you go. Those who now be well might have guessed who Miss D. Kingsward is! Anyway please review and tell me what I need to improve or change etc thanku!
