Chapter 2
Announcements and Shared Ideas
At the Burrow Hermione was the first to arrive, so I guess you could say that Ron got the advantage.
"Oh Hermione dear", Mrs. Weasley said giving the girl a slightly constricting hug "It is so good to see you."
"It's good to see you too Mrs. Weasley." Over Mrs. Weasley's shoulder Hermione saw Ron come down the rickety stairs. "Ron!" she yelled as she ran over to him and (much to his utter shock) gave him a big hug.
"Hi, 'mione." He said his face turning the color of his hair. Before Ron could say anything more Harry came through the fire place followed by Mr. Weasley.
"hey guys!" Harry said with a big smile. Hermione ran over to him and gave him a big hug. Ron frowned in frustration, while Harry's smile got even bigger.
Their time at the burrow was extremely short. After the hugging session they all went to Diagon Ally to get their school books. After which they had dinner and went to bed.
The next morning was hectic as usual, but they managed to get to platform 9 ¾ on time.
On the train Harry and Hermione, who were head boy and girl, left to patrol the train. Ron sat alone. His sister was with some of her friends and he had no idea where anyone else was. He sighed which woke up Pig. He spent the rest of the train ride trying to get Pig to shut up.
The great hall was packed and noisy. There was a rumor that Dumbledore had a big announcement to make that night. The sorting was about to start so everyone quieted down.
Both Harry and Ron were rather distracted. They were trying to figure out what to do. They both knew that they needed something big to win her over. But what? Their thoughts were interrupted by Dumbledore clearing his throat.
"Welcome my friends to another year at Hogwarts. Before any of my usual announcements" Her said his blue eyes twinkling " I have a special announcement. This year Hogwarts will be putting on a musical." Hermione's eyes widened "It will be open to year 5 and above, and auditions will be in two weeks. The musical we will be doing is PHANTOM OF THE OPERA!"
both Harry and Ron sat up in their seats as they both thought;
That's it!
