A/N: Thanks Coconut Girl. I agree, they might have recognized each other, but keep in mind that Hermione has changed a fair bit in appearance since he last saw her. Thanks for reviewing!

'My God Ronald! Look at the state of this apartment!'

'Nice to see you too sister!' he said pulling the small woman into a embrace.

'Yeah! It's good to see you Ron.' She said, her smile softening, hugging him back with just as equal amount of love.

'It's nice to see you mate.' Said the man from the door. He had jet black hair and sparkling emerald green eyes. He was tall with broad shoulders and strong looking arms.

'Harry!' he cried giving his best friend a rough hug.

'Long time no see,' Harry laughed returning the favour.

'So… do you want to sit down… have a coffee or something?'

Ginny raised an eyebrow, 'And where exactly do you want us to actually sit?'

That stumped Ron, 'Uh.. hang on.' He swept his wand around the kitchen and the piles of stuff magically disappeared. The magazines quickly flew directly into a box haphazardly.

Ron grinned sheepishly and Ginny and Harry both took a seat at the wooden table.

Ten minutes later the coffee was made and everyone was seated, talking about the past.

'I haven't seen you in four years. What have you done with yourself? What happened between you and…' Harry said, trailing off at the end

'Well… I have no permanent position as of yet. I am working at my brother's shops and at Flourish and Blotts. And you?'

'Oh… I'm an Auror…'

'and I am a curse breaker!' finished Ginny smiling.

'Nice one.' Ron said nodding his head.

He three of them spent hours reminiscing. They exchanged stries of life but surprisingly, Hermione was left completely out of the equation. Ron saw Harry and Ginny together and he knew that Hermione would be sitting with him, hugging and laughing a adding parts of each others stories, if he hadn't stuffed it all up.

Finally about four hours later, Ginny stood up, and said that she was going for a walk in the park.

'Why! You can do that tomorrow? I'll show you my favourite coffee spot on the other side of the park.'

'Ron, even though it seems different, I do have other friends, who just happen to live near you. I will be staying for dinner with her if that is ok. And then I will come back here. Ok? If you prefer I'll catch a taxi.'

'Fine. I'll see you after dinner. Harry are you going with her?'

'Uh..' he threw a glance at his wife who nodded, 'Yeah… we want to catch up with H-… I mean an old friend.'

Ron shrugged indifferently. 'See ya!'

'Bye' they chorused, leaving the apartment with a smile.

Hermione was standing by her window. From her apartment, she could see right across the park. Even though it was raining, there were two people walking together towards her apartment. She smiled, it had to be them. The people disappeared into her building and a few minutes later her intercom crackled.

'Hermione!' came Lou's voice and a few seconds later her face appeard on the screen.

'There are two people downstairs. I think that they want to see you….'

'Of course we want to see her! Otherwise we wouldn't be here asking for her.' Broke in a familiar feisty voice.

'Let them up! I've been expecting them!' Hermione said smiling at the familiar sound.

A few minutes later the elevator beeped and she heard the doors open. Then her doorbell rang. Hermione was at the door within seconds. She flung it open to see two of her most favourite people in the world behind it.

'Hermione!' Ginny shrieked and the two women threw themselves into each other's arms. They were hugging each other tightly, squealing slightly, gibbering at each other, their comments lost to each other.

When they pulled apart, Hermione held the red-head girl at arms length surveying her. She was taller than when she had last seen her, and her hair was longer, hanging around her waist. She looked a lot older, but she still had a youthful look about her pale face. Once they had finished studying each other they pulled back into the hug.

A couple of minutes later they pulled apart and Hermione turned to the man still standing in the doorway.

'Harry!' she cried wrapping he arms around his broad shoulders. 'It has been to long'

Harry laughed and wrapped his own arms around her thin shoulders. He looked rather shocked when he saw just how thin she was. He laughed as he studied her. She had grown up in the past four years, she had grown, her unmanageable hair had transformed into beautiful bouncy curls and her face still looked beautiful but slightly tired.

'Mione! It's good to see you!' he said smiling, with his arm around her shoulders.

She showed him to her kitchen and let them sit down. 'Coffee?' she said. When they had agreed she flicked her wand towards the kettle, which squealed automatically. Hermione set cups of coffee down in front of them and she sat down. She pulled her knees up to her chest and snaked an arms around them. Another hand wrapped around her coffee cup. Harry smiled, she hadn't changed in year in personality. She was still very protective of herself. She was still very self-conscious. But she had also changed. Her face had grown up and she was a very beautiful 22-year old.

The three talked happily and they all avoided the topic of whom they were staying with. Harry went to the toilet about an hour later and Ginny slid over into Harry's seat beside Hermione.

'Mione! I need to tell you something!' she whispered an excited urgency in her voice.

'Then tell me!' Hermione replied, smiling and raising an eyebrow.

'…ok.. well… I haven't told Harry or anyone else yet… I want you to be the first to know… I'm pregnant!'

'Oh Gin! Congratulations! Wow! When are you planning on telling Harry? Or anyone even!'

'…well… I hadn't exactly got to that bit yet… I'm not sure how Harry will take it!'

'Don't worry about it! I know he wil be just as excited as you!'

'Thanks Mione! See! This is the reason why I'm telling you first! I knew you'd support me!'

Suddenly Harry came back with his eyebrows raised, 'What are you two talking about?'

Hermione waved a hand like she was shooing a particularly annoying fly, 'Girl stuff.' She said simply with a small smile on her face. Harry put both of his hands up as if to surrender.

'I'll leave you to it!' he laughed.

A few hours later they were sitting down to Hermione's cooking. She had made a pot of pumpkin soup and a bought a bag of fresh bread rolls.

Now they were standing by the door with their coats back on.

'Thanks again Mione. Your cooking is fantastic!'

'Yeah… I think we'll see you again before we leave. It was great to see you again.'

Ginny gave Hermione a hug and promptly began crying.

'Sshh… Gin… we'll see each other heaps. Maybe I'll come to visit you sometime. So long as your scumbag brother promises not to turn up.'

Ginny gave a weak giggle and nodded, 'I hate my brother. I have to kill him' she whispered into Hermione's shoulder.

Hermione laughed and gave her one last hug before moving onto Harry.

'Yeah… see ya later 'Mione. We better see you at our house soon. Ok? Don't be afraid of Ron. I can deal with him.'

Again Hermione laughed and they all bid each other goodbye, wondering if that was the last time they would ever see each other.
