Hermiones POV

I stepped into my fathers Porsche(AU: how do you spell that?) after saying goodbye to Harry and the others. I knew it was going to be one long summer. My parents smiled happily at me, oblivious to my depression.

"How was your year, love?" Dad asked, turning the car onto the motorway to drive home.

"Wonderful! Harry finally defeated Voldemort." I didn't mention that in the process of trying to lure Harry into a trap, Voldemort had kidnapped me. I was fine now, after all.

"Did he, now?" Mum said. "When are we going to meet this Harry Potter? He sounds like a very nice boy! Perfect for you!"

"Honestly, Mother! You're just like everyone at school!" I said, laughing.

"One day, dear, you wont find the idea so laughable. Why, your father and I were best friends for ten years before we started dating. That's the best way to fall in love, because you already know each other so well."

I shook my head and gazed out the window. It was true. The longer I knew Harry, the easier it would be to fall in love with him. Whoa, Hermione! Where did that come from? Harrys your best friend!

"I think he should visit us this summer, Hermione." Dad said. "I feel like we know him, you talk about him so much. Besides, your little sister wants to meet the boy who's managed to put up with you all these years."

"Daddy!"

"Easy, princess, I'm just repeating what she said." The car stopped. I hadn't realized how close we were to home.

"Welcome back, sweetheart!" Mum opened the door. I looked up and smiled. The same house I remembered.

"Hermione!" My little sister ran to meet me.

"Elisabethe!" I cried.

"I missed you!"

"I missed you too Lissie." I looked at her. "Gosh, you're as tall as me now!"

She smiled. "I'm only just a year younger than you."

I smiled back.

"Come on. Ill help you unpack and then well go for a horseback ride." Lissie dragged me upstairs and we unpacked in a minute. Then we lounged around talking.

"So, Hermione. Are you going to run off in the middle of the summer again?" She asked.

"No." I sighed. "Harry killed Voldemort so theres no reason to anymore."

"You cant be dissapoointed. That's wonderful!"

"Yes… But I cant help felling that now hes gone, Harry wont need me anymore." I said, voicing my concerns for the first time.

"Well, I highly coubt that, but if he dous dump you, don't you have some girlfriends you can hang with?"

"No, and that's not the point anyway."

"Ohhhh…."

"Wat?"

"Oh nothing. Race you to the stables! She took off, and, laughing, I ran after her.

Two months later, I had done everything there was to do, and I was bored out of my mind. Then, one morning I awoke to a light tapping on my window. I got up and lifted the shade. Hedwig flew in and landed on my bedpost. Carefully I removed the letter attached to her leg. She hooted and closed her eyes. I smiled and unfurled the letter.

Dear Hermione,

You woulnt believe how incredibly bored I am here. I told the Dursleys what happened with Voldemort, and now theyre so scared theyre just ignoring me. The only things I can do are work out, sleep, and (youll approve of this one!) read. I finnaly can go anywhere I want, what with voldemort gone, and the weasleys are in Romarnia. Anyway, I just felt like writing. Ive got to go.

Love,

Harry

I glanced at Hedwig, who was still sleeping. I walked to my desk and picked upmy quill to write back.
