Chapter 4: feed the damn thing to Dobby!

Hermione watched Ron kick off form the ground, she really missed him, and Harry, she felt nice sitting beside him, she felt like she was home.

It had been three long years since she last saw Harry but she still felt like she new him, he seemed so much the same, happier though.

Ron on the other hand, well, he seemed the same from what she had heard so far, liked the really hot, pretty girls, liked Quidditch.

Hermione sighed, she actually missed watching the Quidditch games from the stands at Hogwarts, Ron and Harry waving before the game started.

Ron was keeper and he seemed to be really good at it, he would dive for a goalpost, block the quaffle and still manage to stay on his broom.

He only missed 2 goals the entire game.

The game ended a while later, Hermione watched Ron fly down from the hoops, Hermione tried to wave but at the moment everyone was cheering, she wanted to, but she didn't want to cheer for the game, she wanted to cheer for seeing Harry and Ron and Ginny and ... everybody!

Ron landed on the ground and a few people were aloud to run out onto the pitch, Ron's girlfriend included.

Hermione didn't notice she was scowling as he took whats-her-face in a big hug and kissed her.

Harry pulled Hermione up but the elbow,

"Common, lets go down and see him." Harry said as he started to drag her along down the stands.

"What about everybody else Harry?" Hermione asked, she didn't want to go down there right now.

"We don't always go down anymore, we go to all his games, what more can he ask for." Harry replied

There was a large horde of people jammed in the way of the entrance to the pitch trying to gain access.

"Move out of the way!" Harry tried to squeeze threw, pulling Hermione with him.

"Hey, living dead coming threw!" Harry yelled

most people actually got out of the way, Harry pulled Hermione and himself threw the gate to the pitch and caught Ron just as he was heading for the showers.

"Ron! Ron wait!" Harry yelled

Ron turned, his eyes opened wide.

"Herm... Hermione?" Ron choked.

"Ron!" Hermione screamed throwing her arms around him.

Ron hugged back and they only let go when a angry voice behind them yelled.

"Ronald Weasley!" the voice was high pitched and made Hermione's ears hurt.

Hermione backed away.

"Oh, hello hunny..." Ron started "This is.." Hermione interrupted "We've already met.

"Oh, thats great." Ron sighed, the girl pulled him aside and started to talk to him, angrily.

When they came back Hermione decided to do the right thing.

"Listen, um Almasha, I'm just and old friend of Ron and Harry's from school, I've been gone for a while." Hermione said.

Almasha nodded then put her nose in the air, "Well, Ronald, I'll see you at the after party." she said, looking past Harry and Hermione and walking on.

Ron looked very red.

"Well, she seems... nice." Hermione said, plastering a fake smile on her face.

Harry snorted.

"At least she tried to be nice to her." Ron said throwing a glance at Harry.

"Hermione, they said you were, wait are you dead? No your not your standing right here... what happened?"

Hermione explained her story.

"I went there once..." Harry said

"What?" Hermione asked

"I went to 'Earls place'" harry finished

"When?" Hermione asked.

"When I put up missing posters".

"You put up missing posters? Hermione asked

"Yeah, so did Ron." Harry said.

Ron was silent for a long time before ... "So, your going to come to the after party right?" Ron asked hopefully.

"Well, I don't think your girlfriend wanted me there." Hermione said glancing at Harry.

"Well, screw her, Hermione, your coming, you have to!" Ron insisted.

"Positive?"

"Yes!" Ron said

"Harry, would you bring her, I've really got to get changed." Ron said

"Duh." Harry said

Hermione and Harry went back up to the stands as Ron went and got changed.

"So whats this after party?" Hermione asked

"Oh, just reporters, fire whiskey, important people." Harry said.

Hermione watched him not really listening, she just wanted to hear his voice, Ron's to, especially Ron's.

Hermione hugged Harry again.

"What was that for?" Harry chuckled

"I just missed you is all." Hermione said.

"Missed you to Mione." Harry said, grabbing Ginny who was getting lost in the crowd and swinging an arm over both her and Hermione.

"I always knew I'd end up with a girl on each side of me." Harry joked.

Hermione and Ginny both playfully slapped his arm.

The after party

Hermione, Ginny and Harry all came into the after party together, Hermione scanned the crowd, then she saw Ron, he was drinking some butter beer and talking to another player on his team.

They made there way over to him.

Ron dropped his butter beer and it smashed on the floor.

"Honestly, Ron." Hermione said pointing her wand at the mess and concentrating on 'Reparo'

the bottle sprung back together.

"Hermione." Ron said going and hugging her, then he pulled her up on a large platform and pointed his wand at his throat .

Is voice boomed threw the crowd.

"Hello everyone, I have an announcement." Ron started

Hermione's eyes went wide "Ron, don't you dare." She muttered.

"This, is one of my best friends Hermione Granger, she just got back and came to one of my games tonight." Ron said

Ron stepped down, he had said more but Hermione didn't catch it, she was too embarrassed to hear anything but bla bla bla bla bla

Hermione hugged Ron.

"I missed you." She squeaked.

"Missed you to Mione." Ron said

The party was a blast people dancing and having fun, Hermione ran into Luna Lovegood, they talked, nicely, actually they got along pretty well.

Another player on Ron's team, the chaser, hit on her.

Hermione was standing beside Ron and Harry, Harry had Ginny plastered to his side, the same chaser who had hit on Hermione had hit on Ginny and Harry saw, so now he wouldn't let her out of his sight.

Hermione looked up at Ron and then closed her eyes, just listening to their voices.

There was a loud bang and Hermione looked over to where the sound had originated from.

There wearing yellow robes trimmed in fur was Amasha, she had slammed open the metal door.

"Ronald Weasley, you forgot to pick me up and now your here with that.. that... filthy looking, probably Mudblood!" she screamed.

Hermione backed away from Ron, he walked towards Almasha.

"Get out." he said calmly.

"What?" She choked

"You heard me, get out... were through." Ron said forcefully.

This from the boy who in 6th year waited until his girlfriend dumped him because he was scared of her. Hermione thought.

The girls lip quivered and then Akmasha turned on her heel and left.

Ron turned back to them, "So were where we?" Ron asked looking at all the shocked faces.

Hermione couldn't help but smile, she just couldn't.

After the party Ron and Hermione walked off.

"So, Hermione, were are you living?" he asked looking down at her.

"In a muggle apartment." she said.

Ron 'mm'ed in reply.

"We should go to the ministry." Ron said

"Why?" Hermione questioned

"So we can get you your name back, everybody thinks your dead." Ron said raising an eyebrow.

"When?" Hermione asked

"Lets go now." Ron said, taking Hermione's hand, they apperated outside the telephone box and closed the door behind them.

"I remember the last time we were here." Hermione said in a voice hardly above a whisper.

"Mm, so do I." Ron said, he shook his head and then picked up the receiver and dialed the numbers.

Ron said something and out came two badges, Ron handed one to Hermione and pinned the other to the front of his robes.

Hermione read the badge ... 'Hermione Granger, records changed.' Hermione didn't know what to expect would be on the badge but she frowned. Ron didn't notice he was turned the other way.

The phone booth went down and soon Hermione saw the (repaired) gold fountain.

Ron grabbed Hermione's hand and led her to the front desk, the man expected their wands and then they walked on.

Ron led her around until they came to a desk, the man on the other side of the desk was well dressed and had blond hair and a beard.

"By friend, Hermione Jane Granger, she was said dead about three years ago, well, she's not dead." Ron said

The man handed them a stack of papers.

Ron took them and sat at another desk.

Hermione sat beside him.

"Here." he handed her some and watched as she filled them out.

Ron filled out a few to, pausing sometimes to ask her questions like, what was you N.E.W.T score for History of Magic or something like that.

After they had them done Ron picked up all of the documents and handed them to the man.

"I'm going to need someone who had known her three years or more to sign this." the man said shoving the paper at Ron.

Ron signed it and passed it back.

He looked at it, then looked up at Ron, "You play for the Chudley Cannons, don't you?" he said.

"Yes." Ron replied

"Well, my brother is a big fan, could he have your autograph?"

"Sure." Ron said taking the picture t he man had passed him.

He scribbled something on it and handed it back.

"Thank you." the man said

"Oh." He said snapping back to reality, "She has to live in a magical environment." the man said looking from Hermione to Ron.

Ron looked at Hermione, she was biting her lip.

He walked over to her and whispered in her ear.

"How about you live with me until this gets threw." Ron said

Hermione looked stunned.

"Yes?" Ron asked

Hermione nodded.

"good." Ron said walking back to the man at the desk.

She lives at Godrics Hollow with Harry Potter, Ginny Weasley and me.

Hermione choked.

As they walked away Hermione asked, "What about Harry and Ginny, wont they mind?" Hermione asked.

"I told them my idea, you nodded and said 'sure'" Ron said smiling

"Oh, I wasn't listening." Hermione said

"Oh, the great Hermione Granger, the one who would nag my ear of for not listing in class, didn't listen." Ron said

"Ha ha." Hermione said sarcastically.

Ron laughed, she missed that laugh.

"Want to go home?" he asked her.

"Sure."

"Do you have an owl I could use?" Hermione asked

"I have Pig." Ron said

"You still have him?" Hermione asked astonished

"Yup."

Hermione laughed.

They got to Godric's Hollow and Ron opened the door.

"After you." Ron said motioning for her to enter.

Hermione did and what came bounding over but an old orange cat.

"Crookshanks?" Hermione asked as she took the cat in her arms.

"Yes, we brought him here, well, actually Harry and Ginny did, I wanted to feed the damn thing to Dobby." Ron said

"Funny." Hermione said sarcastically.

Hope you liked this chapter / Pig and Crookshanks are alive because ... there cool like that, and Hedwig is to, she just wasn't mentioned because this is about Ron and Hermione not an owl.
