A/N: Well this chapter is kind of fast paced speeding up certain events to get past a month in one chapter. I will give you a hint Hermione has the baby at Hogwarts but its after she and Harry graduate. I doubt anyone can figure it out but you can try.
"I can't believe you two got eight O's." Ron asked.
"You don't think we're capable." Harry asked.
"Highly...but considering it was a two O assignment."
"We don't have to do 3 other assignkents then?" Harry asked.
"No, you do Hermione will make sure of that!" Ron said.
The smile on their faces dissappeared.
"You know Ron yesterday was uncalled for." Harry said.
" I realize that."
"No, you don't, you see Hermione's very sensitive about what she does eat, what she doesn't eat. And finally what kind of creeps me out what she regurgitates."
"Somehow I think that I don't want to know."
"I think you should. She's very and I mean very self concious about her size lately. So basically when you told her about her eating habits you insulted her beyond belief."
Harry shook his head.
He will never get it. I know that Ron is sometimes not the smartest person. I'm not the smartest person either and maybe I shouldn't be thinking about Ron like this. I think that considering that he has a sister and he was around when she was born he should know how his mother got. Then again Mrs.Weasley is this all around nice person and probably didn't have any type of mood swings. But...he lives with two girls and should know what to and what not to say around them...or maybe he just finds pleasure in making Hermione feel bad.

"So how's the planning for the activity month going." Hermione asked sitting down on the couch.
"Well, I figure we use the Great Hall for the movie since its already the largest. Just transform the tables into a bunch of pillows or something. The movie thing I have no idea."
"I've got that covered already." Hermione said.
"Really so what's the plan?" Harry asked.
"Well they don't really have movies here so I figure I bring my laptop from home and summon a magical projector. Of course I'll need to have someone make the computer magically enhanced. Since I already needed clothes from mum. I asked her to pack that and some DVD's since I have plenty."
"Why isn't that stuff at our house?" Harry asked.
"I just left it there as we really only brought our clothes and some personal stuff and I didn't really need it at the time."
"If we have it all planned what is left to do?" Harry asked.
Hermione looked him in the eye and leaned forward to kiss him.
"This is what we do!" Hermione said as she leaned back in.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
It was a week later and a week before the Activity month began.
"What is that?" Hermione asked pointing to this gigantic box that was at the foot of the Gryffindor table.
"I don't know why don't we go check it out." Harry said.
She looked at it and noticed that it had her and Harry's name on it along with her mother's name.
"It's ours Harry." Hermione said.
"I see that why don't you open it." Harry said as he examined it. Hermione took out her wand and started to mutter the spell before she remembered and handed Harry her wand and he performed the spell. She looked down into it.
"Patricia really knows how to shop!" Harry said as he probed into it.
"There were bags, shoes, lots of shirts, jeans and shirts. It was just a lot."
"Well she can definitely picked out some good movies here too. Is that what I think that is?" Hermione said looking at the DVD looking thing he had picked up.
"Your mother sent us a birthing tape. That's very nice but too early to be thinking about that or to be looking at it...Wow I see some bootleg movies in here I see Click and Over the Hedge. Can we show these?" Harry asked shocked and looking inbetween everything.
"Yes we can show those movies there is no penalty here. Can you shrink this and put in your pocket?"
Harry placed it into his pocket and they sat down to eat.
"So what'd you guys get?" Neville asked.
"Just some movie stuff I asked for from a source." Hermione said vaguely.
"Interesting so what movies do you have?"Neville asked.
"Your going to have to wait until next week to find out Neville." Hermione said grinning at him over her tea.
"Harry you do know how to put magic into objects right?" Hermione asked looking over at him. "You didn't do it already did you?"
"How can I hook up something that hasn't shown up until this morning. I've only seen it a few seconds ago."
"You don't have to yell at me you know."
"I wasn't yelling at you...So I raised my voice you don't have to be all tetchy about it." Harry said resuming his meal.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
The following week was the week of the opening. They met with McGonagall before breakfast and she suggested that they go with procedure so there was no confusion later on. They went to the Great Hall and began their speech
"Well guys I see we're all out of our robes. It'll be like this for the rest of March so get used to it. We have a few rules to run by you. We have our plans but we had to talk it over with McGonagall to ensure safety measures." Harry spoke up.
"Right so first and second years will have to stick with PG...I know I would have let you in but McGonagall says no. On top of that there will be no R movies except for the seventh years and that's at the end of the month." Hermione started before she was interrupted
Some of them cheered and the rest of them just flat out didn't care.
"Last minute though we have planned a co-ed sleep over so be prepared for that. You remember how it was done the other year and for those of you who don't talk to someone that you think knows. First and . years yours starts at 6:00 immediately after dinner and the rest follows at 8:00. You can come and see them both if you want all rules apply."
She was about to walk off before Professor McGonagall reminded her of the other abbouncement she wanted made.
"...Oh yeah...the last thing is for the sleep over in the Great Hall that's you know co-ed." Headmistress had stated bluntly what she wanted but she couldn't bring herself to say that in front of the crowd. She found the easiest way to say it to let them know what she meant but not actually have to say it.
"Okay so none of us are stupid right...At least I hope not...If you think you are go get the help you so desperately need...Besides that my point is we're all boys and girls...we get to that age where we have drives...okay wrong...not what I wanted to say...Harry finish it."
"Okay so point blank is we're boys there will be girls don't do anything that we wouldn't...okay not that either just don't do anything stay at the opposite ends of the room if you have to." Harry himself was flustered.
"I swear they just put us up there to watch us squirm. We do that quite lovely." Hermione said.
"You were funny though!" Harry said encouraging her.
"No what's really funny was watching you say your sentence or lack there of."
"Tonight's going to be interesting." Harry said.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"So guys this your official welcome to the beginning of movie night's the first and second years already saw Over the Hedge bootleg. Don't tell anyone though we don't need that getting around to the Professors." Hermione told them.
"Well tonight we have the options between Stick It, Bring it On 2, and Mr.& Mrs. Smith. Also before you choose popcorn is set up over there. This is the true muggle experience here. So what's your choice?" Harry asked.
There were many murmurs before they all shouted different things but more clearly they heard Mr. & Mrs. Smith.
"Okay I think we heard Mr&Mrs.Smith so that's what we're going to watch. Get your stuff now because I'm very particular about how I watch my movies I'm not afraid to chuck you out...So enjoy!"
Hermione went to the back of the room picked up a pretzel and hit the button on the projector that started the movie and blew out all the candles in the Great Hall. The movie was done about two hours later and everyone was shocked.
"That was the best movie ever." a student could be heard saying.
"That was your only movie ever. There are no movies in the wizarding world."
"Right."
They quickly transformed the tables back for breakfast the next morning and went back.
"I think that went very well." Harry said.
"I think it was also. It also gave me a very good idea."
"I'd really like to know what that is!" Harry said.
"You'll find out tomorrow in Defense Against the Dark Arts."
Defense Against the Dark Arts whatever she's thinking about can't be good.
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"Professor Lupin!" Hermione raised her hand.
"Yes Hermione." Lupin responded over their assignment.
"I was wondering whether we were ever going to do sword fighting in this class. I know its not exactly magical but this is Defense Against the Dark Arts."
"I see your point I was planning on spending the class covering hynids but I guess we can change subjects. Everyone up out of your seats."
All of the desks were up against the wall and there were swords in everyone's hand.
"Now let's go over the basics:
1. It's not like dueling so you don't bow to your opponent.
2. There is not really a way that I can teach you. You just have to fall get injured and learn from your mistakes.
He just said fall didn't he. Damn what happens if Hermione cuts herself while we're sword fighting. That's it I refuse to fight her I won't be responsible for hurting her or the baby. I don't think I could take that.
"Harry...Where you listening?" Hermione asked waving her hands in his face. "We're partners."
She drew her sword and was in a stance ready to fight. She waited for him for a minute before she stood up straight once again placing it back in it's sheath.
"What's up?" Hermione asked worry etched in her face.
"I'm not going to hurt you Hermione. I'm not going to chance it."
"That's really sweet but really this isn't about us this is about classes. I'm not scared to fight you so why don't you fight me."
"You know damn well while I won't do it." Harry said.
"This is a war. If there's any other way of learning how to defend yourself I should learn how to."
"You won't really need it though." Harry said sheepishly.
"Why is that...Oh your kicking me out of fighting in the war because of my "condition". Sometimes I understand my limitations but you drive it to the point of insanity. It's not dangerous."
"That's a lie."
"So your calling me a liar now?"
"I didn't say that..."
"But you implied it..."
"Enough you two. I want a demonstration instead of hearing you two bickering. Starting now."
Hermione raised her wand back into position while Harry after hesitation raised his too. They weren't actually going to jab it at each other more of a catch each other of gaurd. It was really tough because their swords were almost always met in a scraping sound. It went on like that before Hermione slipped against the slipper flooring and lost her footing. She still kept her ground however fighting against the pressure of his sword bringing her down but still rising up at the same time. It took a lot of energy from both sides and eventually she surrendered breathing heavily.
"Told you, you can't do this...actually you can but it's not safe. We were just catching each other off gaurd and you slipped. Death Eaters and Voldemort aren't afraid to fight you for real. They will hurt you as it's incredibly sharp and they won't be afraid to jab you right in the middle. What can you do besides...still?"
"I can brew potions and that's still useful!" Hermione brightened up.
"See you can still help!" Harry said.
A/N: I know this chapter is not one of my absolute favorites. This is probably a filler like chapter but mind you not an actual filler.
