5 Years Later….

22-year-old Hermione Granger walked out of the bookshop with her arms full of well….books. After graduation, she had left the comfort of Europe and left to venture America. She at first did not know what state she had wanted to live in at first, until she went to California. Things were very different here. It wasn't just beaches and blondes as she had seen on the television or movies before. It was actually just like any other place. It had its small towns and big cities. Always living in a small town, Hermione thought it would be different to go to one of the larger cities. And that is how she ended up on the corner of San Francisco walking now walking to her car.

Sure, she missed her friends once in awhile. But whenever she thought about them, her mind always drifted off to him. And whenever she thought about him, the scene of the Common Room the night of graduation always ran through her head. It always made her angry that he couldn't talk to anyone. The anger soon turned an extreme dislike. She had found herself never being able to hate Harry.

She now was driving down her street and stopped in front of her apartment. It wasn't the best apartment, but it was good enough. She got out of the car and started walking up many multiple flights of stair before she reached 655B. Putting the key in the door, she unlocked it and went inside. She put the books down and walked into the "living room" to find her roommate Kris (full name Kristina), already there.

"Hey Hermy!," she said, noticing Hermione was home. She was about 5'7 with blue and and blonde hair. They had met when Hermione started working at a nearby coffee shop. She had been working there for about 5 years. Hermione worked there for about the first 2 years she had gotton here. They aad become fast friends and moved into a small apartment. Luckily, Kristina was a witch who had went to Salem Academy the witch and wizarding school of America, so I can do magic around here.

"Hey" Hermione replied. "I though you had work today."

"Well, the manager finally decided to give me a day off!" she explained. "Now I get to watch the new Wizarding Channel they put on the telly. Let's watch it together!"

'That's the thing that gets me, if were witches and wizards, why on earth do we need a channel on television?' Hermione thought. Of coarse it was just an ordinary channel you can get on cable, you have to order it from the ministry and all that good stuff.

So then, Kristina turns on the TV and we see that it's most likely a commercial and it just ended. Then a new one came up. It had two strangely familiar red-headed twins on it selling joke products. It showed them with all they're new items and how to use them…on other people.

'Typical, they somehow found a way to sell their product and torture other people around the world.'

"OH!" Hermione heard Kris exclaim. "We should go there later!"

"Uh huh, sure" Hermione said plainly. Kris took notice of this and sent her a weird look but Hermione ignored it. "Oh hey the shows back on…" she drifted off. Apparently this show was about famous moments and people in the Wizarding World and it ironically just happened to be one the defeat of Voldemort. 'Uh oh' Hermione thought. Then it just happened to show the person who defeated him. Harry.

"Ooooo! Harry Potter is so FINE!" Kris practically yelled in Hermione's ear. And that wasn't really helping her either. After avoiding it for almost five years, she saw his face again.

"Um, I'm going to go into the kitchen to make some tea." Hermione said quickly, then scurried off into the kitchen. Kris just shrugged it off and went back to watching TV. She then started watching an announcement:

Hey all you ladies out there! Enter for a chance to win a day with Harry Potter! You can also bring ONE friend along. Send a postcard with your name, address, and phone number to the address shown below.

Kris sprinted to the coffee table, which was unfortunately two feet away so she tripped over it. She got up, grabbed a small piece of paper and a pen and quickly wrote down the address. She then called to Hermione in the kitchen.

"Hey Hermy! I'm going to go to the store to get a few postcards!"

"Kay!" she heard her reply.

Meanwhile, in the kitchen…..

"Oh my god" Breathed Hermione. She knew she would see at least a few more times in her life, bet she had never though that it would have this much of an effect on her. And seeing him again had made her feel feelings that she felt that have been put to sleep.

She then walked to the cupboard and took out a small piece of china (A/n: and not the country!), and started preparing her tea. She got out the teapot, put water in it and started to boil it. She then walked into the bathroom and started to draw a bath. This was her little ritual for whenever she was stressed out.

By the time she got her tea and was in the tub, Kris had gotten home.

"Hermione! Where are you?" Kris yelled, taking Hermione out of her relaxing state.

"In the bathroom!" she yelled back.

"Doing what?"

"Taking a bath Einstein"

"Huh?"

"Nevermind, Kris, it's a muggle term"

"Oh okay" After than, Kris went into the kitchen and sat at the table with the postcards she had bought. Desperately wanting to win, she had bought over fifty of them. She then started filling them all out….

A/n: Sorry that took awhile but I got so much to do!…And I still have to make a Pinata, a spanish video, and math homework, and the worst of them, studying for science finals …oh god, so it might take a itty bitty little while to get another one up so yeah.

And if any of you have any suggestion, feel free to IM me on AIM!
