Every Summer Is Different

Chapter 1

Tears fell from Hermione's eyes as she fled into her room. 'Why are they always at each others throats?' she thought. She sat on her bed & looked around her room trying to block out her parents constant arguing. She looked around her tidy bedroom; her TV (which read 12:23pm) perched on top of her cupboard, to her bookshelf that had heaps of books, to finally her eyes fell upon her desk. Her desk was her favourite thing in her room, because it had hundreds of photos of her & friends on it, she walked over to the desk wiping her eyes. She looked at her absolute favourite one; it was of herself, Harry, Ron & Ginny, on the last day of their sixth year & Ginny's fifth. (It was now the beginning of the summer after their sixth year.)

It was taken by the lake; they were standing under an oak tree, Harry had his arms around Ginny, who was looking very happy then pecked him lightly on the lips. Hermione was next to Harry, she was smiling at Harry & Ginny but when she turned to Ron, who was on her other side she began to laugh. Ron was pulling faces at Harry & Ginny, who didn't seem to notice. Then he managed to kiss Hermione on the cheek before the photo started to repeat itself again

Hermione tore her eyes away from the photo, when she heard a sudden smash. She ran downstairs to the kitchen as quickly as she could to see her parents standing face-to-face & a smashed plate on the tiles. Hermione had had it; this fighting had gone on for too long, "Can you two give it a rest?" she screamed. "I can not take this anymore! I'm leaving!" with a final glare at her parents Hermione stormed out of the kitchen & up to her room. She grabbed her trunk & began to pack it with her clothes, books, quills, parchment etc. After she'd finished packing she picked Crookshanks up off her bed & put him in his carrier, then there was a knock on the door. "Hermione, honey? Can I come in?" came her mother's voice, Hermione groaned, "If you must," she replied & continued to pack last minute things. Her mother entered, "Honey, please don't leave, we're sorry about the arguing I promise we'll stop and-" Hermione cut her off, "Nice try mum, but you can't trick me twice! That's what you said last summer," said Hermione with her eyes watering; she grabbed her trunk & made her way downstairs to the fireplace which had recently been connected to the floo network.

Just as she was about to enter the fireplace her father blocked her way. "Yes?" she asked impatiently, trying to get around her father. "If you make another move young lady, I'll-" Hermione had had enough so she cut her father off, "What? Lock me in my room? Move out of my way now!" she yelled. Bad move! "Don't you raise your voice to me Hermione," he said, as a hand slapped her face. Hermione stood completely still shocked; he father had NEVER hit her! Hermione began to cry & while her father stood still from shock she quickly darted around him & grabbed some floo powder & said clearly, "The Burrow!"

MEANWHILE AT THE BURROW

"Wake up Ronald!" said Ginny, prodding Ron in the back. Ron made a rude hand gesture at Ginny, who happily ran from the room & not long after returning with a bucket of ice. Carefully she walked over to Ron & grabbed a handful of ice from the bucket & put them down the back of his shirt. "GINNY! YOU BLOODY BITC-" "Excuse me?" Ron was cut off, "What was that Ronald?" asked a voice from the door. Mrs. Weasley stood there arms folded, "I hope that wasn't profanity that you were saying," she said sternly, Ron shook his head & Mrs. Weasley left. "Ginny, you bloody prat! You better run!" Ron warned her, as he jumped out of bed & began to chase Ginny around the house. Ginny screamed & ran out of the house & to Mr. Weasley who was reading the Daily Prophet. Ron gave up & trudged back inside to get dressed & eat.

After he was dressed, he made his way to the kitchen to find some breakfast. 'What to have? Porridge? No, toast? No, what are these?' thought Ron as he pulled out a box of cereal & poured himself a little bit. "Is that Coco Pops? Give us some," said Ginny as she walked in & took Ron's bowl of coco pops. "No, mine! Get your own," said Ron as he took back his coco pops & began to eat them, Ginny stuck her tongue out at him & proceeded in getting herself some cereal. After he'd finished, he & Ginny went into the lounge room & looked at the clock it was 12:28pm. "What are we doing today dear brother?" asked Ginny sitting on the couch, Ron shrugged. "Hey, let's go ask mum if Harry & Hermione can come over!" said Ginny happily jumping up from her seat & out the door, Ron followed.

"MUM!" yelled Ginny, "I'm in the kitchen, Gin," came Mrs. Weasley's voice from the kitchen, Ginny & Ron raced to the kitchen. "Mum, can we invite Harry & Hermione over yet?" asked Ron pleadingly, "Of course you can," she replied. Ron & Ginny ran quickly upstairs to Ron's room.

"Ok I'll write Harry's invitation & you write Hermione's," said Ron getting out two pieces of parchment & handed one to Ginny. They quickly scribbled notes to Harry & Hermione & sent Pig off with the notes. They had invited them both to come on the following Tuesday at around noon. "So what do we do while we wait for a reply?" asked Ginny, "GINNY!" scream Mrs. Weasley from downstairs, "COME WITH ME I'VE GOT TO GO TO DIAGON ALLEY & U NEED NEW SHOES!" she continued, Ginny quickly got up & raced downstairs closely followed by Ron. "Why can't I come?" asked Ron, "Because, you must stay home & clean your room for when Harry & Hermione arrive, we'll be back soon, goodbye," Mrs. Weasley said kissing Ron on the cheek & leaving with Ginny.

Ron sighed, 'home alone,' he thought as he walked past the fireplace, then SMACK! Something hit Ron, then he & the thing tumbled to the floor. "I'm Sorry Ron," came a familiar voice, "Hermione? What are doing here already the invitation said to come on Tues- what's wrong Hermione? You look like you've been crying," said Ron getting up then helping Hermione up. Hermione eyes began to leak, "Sorry I'm here early, I just had to leave!" she said crying as Ron enveloped her in a hug.
