Hermione woke early as the summer sun was brightening through her room window, her cue to get her skates on. She jumped up but not in the lazy tired way in the enthusiastic way. She grabbed her pink towel and started to run a nice relaxing bath, good way to start a great day.

Hermione rushed round like a maniac most of the day, she didn't even have time to eat breakfast, it then didn't help when Ginny came round to wish her some luck and saw how excitingly hyper she was

"Hermione, screw him he is a gorgeous Bulgarian Quidditch player, if you miss these chances your mad woman, he is so sexy!" Ginny exclaimed

"Ha yeah to right he's sexy, look Ginevria, what ever happens, happens and for a good reason to but not im not gonna be like her Viktor haven't seen you in 3 years, lets slept together!" Hermione said in a humorous tone

"Well im sure he wouldn't complain haha! Anyway ill probs be in the hall at lunch anyway so don't pretend u aint my friend do come over!" Ginny said

"Yeah corse sure thing! See you later on, I best get going im meeting him in half an hour! See ya gin" Hermione said as she was quickly pushing Ginny to the portrait hole of the drunken old man.

Hermione finished buckling her fave Gucci sandals and stood up to admire her very nice outcome in her full-length mirror. She smiled confidently at herself grabbed her bag and made her way to the grand hall for lunch.

Butterflies where in her stomach as she sat down at the Gryfindor table, looking round anxiously for a tall broad dark haired Bulgarian. She gave up and thought she would try and eat a bit before he arrived, Hermione had a thing about eating in front of guys, she always felt so self conscious. Suddenly a heavy weight lent on her shoulder that made her body fall totally to one side. She turned around to see beaming dark eyes and jet-black hair, broad shoulders and a pale ish skin.

"Elo Hermy nee" Viktor said softly but it kind of roared, as his voice was so deep.

"Viktor!" Hermione gasped and got to her feet. Viktor lent down and gave Hermione a kiss on each cheek; Hermione could feel her face blushing and looked down. People from all the house tables, heads turned to look at the huge Bulgarian in his brown thick trousers, beige jumper, with a furry hat and matching scarf. Whispers where echoing round the hall which made people more curious of the sudden noise

"That Viktor Krum, hes amazing on a broom" a Hufflepuff announced to his mate.

"He competed in the Twi wizard Tournament!" a young first year girl whispered to her friend.

"Isn't that Hermione's ex boyfriend from fourth year, Krum isit?" a Ravenclaw seventh year muttered to everyone.

"How was your travel Viktor" Hermione said trying to distract him from all the awkward whispering

"It was just perfect thank you Hermy nee, but I am starving so I cant wait to tuck in to some of this delicious food!" he said as his eyes brightened

"Oh right, yes course, sit down Viktor" Hermione said as she shifted up to let Viktor seat next to her. Viktor sat down and started helping him selves to the chicken drumsticks.

"You know Hermy nee, you are just as beautiful as what you where when I was last here, just a lot more mature, a young woman" he said with a blush. Hermione was shocked by such the nice comment.

"Oh Viktor how lovely of you to say such a thing" Hermione said feeling kind of awkward.

Lunch went by kind of quickly for them both as they where chatting away about people, hobbies, school, jobs, the ministry …. All quite boring things but both of them left every minute of it.

"Hermione" Hermione heard from the distance, knowing it was Dumbledore.

"Oh Hello Professor!" Hermione said politely

"Viktor Krum! Didn't know you would be arriving so early! Dumbledore said quite shockingly

"I was just going to ask Hermione actually if when you arrived, after we had announced your stay at dinner to the school, if Miss Granger here could show you the way to your common room and dormitory, but as your already here I suppose it would be quite silly if we where to introduce you to the school at dinner when most our students have noticed you, by the looks of things" Dumbledore explained as his eyes where flickering behind his half moon specs.

"Oh Albus, I wouldn't vant you to go to vany special effort vanyway, but thank you for the gesture Sir" Viktor said pleasantly whilst smiling

"Ok then I shall leave you to be, Hermione Viktor shall be staying in the room behind the portrait of the old sleepy man, by yours and Mr Malfoys rooms, that remind me if you see Draco tell him to come to me, I have heard he hasn't been a very pleasant head boy to some certain first years, that's all for now, good day" Dumbledore said and walked of.

"I suppose I should show you your time being home then Viktor" Hermione said with a grin

"Go for vit" Viktor said grinning back

They both stood up and started walking toward the doors, heads turning even more than before; Hermione felt quite UN comfortable, then at that moment Viktor cupped Hermione's hand. Hermione's body froze, as well as all her facial expressions she slowly looked up and Viktor looked down and gave a little un certain smile as if he thought Hermione was to shout at him. She smiled back and continued to walk as people started pointing.

"What the hell do you think you are doing you little two faced bitch!" Hermione and Viktor turned round just as they reached the stairs to seen Ron Weasley fuming, his face was almost as red as his hair. He started marching up to both Hermione and Viktor. Viktor stepped one foot in front and Ron's quick pace was put to an immediate halt. Ron looked up at the angry Bulgarian and took a big gulp and re phrased his words slightly.

"I – I – mean – erm – well" Ron started hesitating getting all his words mixed

"You mean Mr Veasley, that next time you will keep yourself and your goby mouth out of myself and Hermy nees business, you got vhat!" Viktor said in a very stern tone

"Erm yep, I got that" Ron muttered whilst taking another big gulp in between

"Good, now move it Veasel!" Krum said seriously and with that Ron hurried away and the crowds starting talking again.

"Wow erm thanks Viktor!" Hermione said shockingly

"No no im very sorry I shouldn't have said vhat, I just couldn't vesist, he is such a vanker, little boy! I vas not having no bodys talking to you like that!" Viktor said angrily.

"Don't be sorry, im thank you, maybe it will put a stop to the hassle hes been giving me. Don't know what I ever saw in that boy" Hermione said

Viktor and Hermione walked of silently …… still hand in hand though.
