Chapter 3: Home for the Holidays.
Morning came much too soon for Harry's liking. At 7:00 sharp Hermione opened the shades.
"Mione!" Harry groaned, "Could you shut that window please?"
"No," Hermione walked over to him and shook him slightly, "It's time to get up."
"What time is it?" Harry asked groggily.
"7:00," Hermione whispered as Harry slowly began to open his eyes, "I've already had my shower, it's time you had yours."
"Alright!" Harry got up and walked slowly to the bathroom. The water woke him up. He had a long shower and changed into his robes. Shined his head boy badge and pinned it on.
"About time!" Hermione told him when he walked out of the washroom, "15 minutes 'til breakfast."
"I'm coming," Harry called as she started walking down the stairs. By the time he got to the bottom of the stairs she was standing there with Ron and tapping her foot. "I'm here alright?!"
"Honestly," Ron commented, "You guys are starting to act like an old married couple." He laughed out loud.
They all laughed. Harry took Hermione's hand as they started to walk towards the entrance hall.
"I can't wait 'til tomorrow," Hermione stated, "Going home for Christmas! It's going to be so fun!"
"Yeah, can't wait," Ron replied sarcasticly. "No pranks for 2 weeks. This is torture."
Hermione ignored him, "Your excited right Harry?"
"Of course 'Mione." Harry answered, "I can't wait to see your parents again."
"Me neither," Hermione told him, "I just hope that Crookshanks is good. Whenever I bring him home for the summer holidays, he tneds to attack the rooms." she giggled. "I'm actually thinking of borrowing a few garden knomes from the Burrow. He loves chasing them!"
"I'm pretty sure my mom wouldn't mind." Ron laughed, "Those things drive her up the wall."
"I think you might get a few stares from the neighbors though," Harry laughed, "They might think that one of your plastic knomes have come to life."
Hermione grinned then her face got all serious as they sat down at the Gryffindor table. "The ministry would have a very interesting time trying to sort that mess out though."
"Yeah, maybe," Harry dug into his breakfast.
The rest of the day went by pretty well. None of their teachers gave them homework because of the holidays. And they didn't have Potions so they didn't have to deal with Snape.
"'Mione," Harry questioned her later in bed that night, "Do you parents know about us?"
"No. Because I haven't been able to send them a letter. Because I would have to go to muggle London. They hate owls in their house all the time. Why?"
"Just curious," Harry sighed, "They're picking us up tomorrow?"
"No, love, we're driving my car, it's at the train station."
"Love, do your parents know that we are coming?"
"No, I wanted to surprise them. I haven't been home for a holiday in ages. I can't wait to see the looks on their faces."
"We should get some sleep." he whispered, "We have to be up early tomorrow. Night Hermione, love you."
"Love you too Harry."
At 6:36 am Hermione came iin and dragged Harry out of bed. Harry groaned as she pushed him towards the bathroom door. He just stood their for a second contemplating something. "'Mione, how do you do it?" he asked.
"Do what?" she asked him as she continued to bustle about the room.
"Wake up so early and still be as chipper as a church mouse?"
"Another one of Hermione Granger's hidden talents." Hermione told him smiling, "Now go have a shower."
Harry smiled for a moment then closed the bathroom door. He went into the shower and waited for the water to wake him up. He then quickly washed himself and dried off. Realising he had forgotten to bring a robe into the washroom, he walked out of the room in jeans and a muscle shirt. "Love, can you toss me a robe?" he asked her, because Hermione was packing their stuff. Without looking up she tossed him a robe.
"We have half an hour." she told him as she closed her trunk. "Our trunks are packed. I think Ron's is too. I got him up early this morning. The house elfs are coming at 7:55 to pick them up. We just have enough time to grab breakfast before the carriages come." she took Harry's hand and started down the stairs. Harry paused.
"What?" Hermione asked him.
"Don't I even get a good morning kiss?" Harry asked her.
"Fine," Hermione rolled her eyes. "Good morning sweetheart," she said and gave him a quick peck on the lips. "No can we go?" she asked impatiently.
"Yes," he smiled.
They walked into the common room and immediately saw Ron sitting in a chair next to the portrait hole.
He got up when he saw them approaching. "It's about time you got here," he said when they joined him and walked out of the portrait hole. "I've been sitting here since 7:15 since Hermione got me up at 6:30 sharp."
"Yeah, while Harry wasn't even out of the shower 'til 7:25. I swear he takes forever in the shower."
"Not always," Harry defended himself. "Only when I need to fully wake up after being dragged out of bed by my beautiful girlfriend at 6:30 am."
"Flattery will get you nowhere," Hermione told him with a smile, "Your live through it love. It didn't kill you did it?"
"No," Harry grumbled as they sat down at the Gryffindor table and all three began to fill their plates with food.
10 minutes later they had all eaten their fill. They headed down to where kids were getting in the carriages. Hermione grabbed a carriage and they got in and started off down the road.
When they boarded the Hogwarts express they grabbed a compartment and were soon joined by Neville Longbottom, Luna Lovegood and Ginny.
Ron surprised Ginny when she heard that he was going home with Hermione for Christmas. "Mom knows about this right?" was all Ginny asked.
"Yes," Ron told her, "I sent mom an owl asking her if it was fine to go to Hermione's for Christmas and she replied and told me that she didn't see it as a problem."
"Okay."
They talked for a while. But soon it all went quiet. It was a typical scene. Luna was reading the Quibbler again. Ginny and Neville were talking quietly. Ron was looking out the window, obviously deep in thought, Hermine was reading and Harry was asleep on Hermione's shoulder.
A while later when the Hogwart's Express was pulling into the staion Hermione woke Harry up so they could get off the train, "Come love," she whispered, "The Trains stopping."
A slowly waking Harry Potter walked out of the train after they had all gathered there trunks. They carefully walked through the barrier between platform 9 3/4 and the rest of the train station.
"Where's your car love," Harry asked her.
"Just up there." Hermione said as they walked.
The arrived at Hermione's car and loaded up all of their stuff. Their was not chat as they drove to Hermione's parents house. When they got there Hermione knocked on the door.
Hermione's mother answered the door and looked at Hermione with surprise and Happiness. It was going to be an interesting two weeks.
Okay guys that was chapter 3. I was also going to type out chapter 8 for my other story but it is 1:00 am and my mom is going to kick me off the computer in a few. I'll try to update my other story 2 chapter tomorrow. I'll see how it goes. Anyway, review. Love ya lots guys.
