"How do I look," Hermione asked looking at herself a final time in the full-length mirror before turning to look at Ginny who was sat on the end of her four-poster bed in the Fifth-year girls' dorm.
"Hot," her friend replied with a smirk as she scanned her body from head to toe.
"You don't think it's too much," she asked gesturing to her new form fitting uniform. Hermione's grey skirt was three inches higher than her old one falling at mid-thigh rather than to her knees. Rather than grey tights or socks she wore sheer tights and instead of her black Mary-janes she wore black kitten heels that made her legs look longer. Both her blouse and her cardigan fit her much better than her previous ones, showing off her figure nicely, she'd left the top two buttons of her blouse unfastened and wore her Gryffindor tie in a loose knot.
"You look perfect Mione, my brother won't be able to keep his eyes off of you," the red head reassured her.
"It's not slutty is it," she asked nervously.
"What Lavender wares is slutty, you look elegant, you are accentuating what you have without putting everything on display. All you are doing is wearing clothes that fit you perfectly, your new hair is beautiful, and you only have enough makeup to make your natural features pop. You look perfect Mione," she told her, standing up and hugging her tightly.
"Your sure Fred will like it," she asked her friend as she tucked a loose curl behind her ear.
"He will love it," Ginny reassured as she linked their arms together and dragged her out of the dorm room.
"Blimey Mione what are you wearing," Ronald asked her as she sat down at the Gryffindor table.
"Clothes Ronald," she replied irritated.
"I can see that but that's not what you usually wear," he told her as he stuffed bacon into his mouth.
"I wanted a change Ronald, I can't dress like a first year forever," she told him as she poured a cup of coffee for herself.
"You look nice Hermione," Harry told her kindly.
"Thank you, Harry," she smiled at him and piled pancakes and bacon onto her plate before pouring syrup over them.
"You don't usually have caffeine and sugar," Fred commented as he sat down on the bench beside her frowning in confusion.
"I fancied a change Freddie," she told him with a smile.
"Seems you've gone through a lot of changes recently, I like the new hair Mi," he smiled at her kindly and Hermione beamed.
"I'm not a kid, I thought it was time to dress more appropriately for my age, dress confidently feel confident, I'm a woman not a child, as for caffeine and sugar I can have them if I want them," she told him.
"I can see that" he told her his eyes scanning her form.
"You look beautiful Hermione," George told her from the other side of the table.
"Thank you, George," she smiled at him before turning back to his brother.
"Freddie, I was wondering if you could help me this afternoon with something," she asked the older boy resting a manicured hand onto his exposed forearm, one finger making circles around his pulse point. Fred blushed, swallowed loudly, and cleared his throat.
"Erm sure, what do you need help with," he asked her nervously, his blue eye locked onto her brown ones.
"Breaking Educational Decrees, starting with Decree 26 if your up to it," she whispered so only he could hear, Fred swallowed loud and nodded in agreement, Hermione smiled and kissed him on the cheek, "it's a date," she whispered happily.
"Herm, Herm, Miss Granger Detention," the squeaking voice of Professor Umbridge spoke from behind them, Hermione smirked at Fred as she pulled away from the blushing twin, twisting around on the bench so that she faced the toad like woman.
"What for professor," she asked feeling board.
"You were within six inches of Mr Weasley and your uniform is inappropriate," the woman told her with an evil smirk on her face.
"It isn't as though I was fucking him, I kissed him on his cheek at the breakfast table, is that seriously a problem, there also isn't anything wrong with my uniform, half the girls in this hall have are showing off more flesh than me," she informed the professor, ignoring the gasps from the students in the hall around her.
"You are within six inches and therefore are breaking Educational Decree 26, and you will be serving another detention for foul language.
"Oh, wow six inches, what will that really do professor, by telling boys and girls to keep apart you do realise that they are just going to end up shagging more, then again, you've probably never been shagged by anyone so you wouldn't no anything about that would you. Your Educational decrees are ridiculous you do realise that there are many couples within this school who aren't heterosexual. I can't sit within six inches of Fred because we might have sex but it's perfectly okay for me to sit next to Ginny, what if I want to sleep with her," she told the professor her voice dripping with sarcasm.
"Don't be ridiculous Miss Granger, only boy's and girls can have sex," the professor told her viciously.
"Oh, really because Hermione and I have been shagging for weeks," Ginny told the professor linking her hand with Hermione's an amused smirk on her face.
"Detention, you are being ridiculous and crude, girls can't date girls and boys can't date boys," the professor said.
"Oh really, well there isn't an Educational Degree is their Ginny," Hermione asked looking at her friend amusedly,"
"No babe there isn't," she replied leaning forward and kissing her in the centre of the great hall, if it weren't annoying Umbridge so much Hermione would have laughed but instead she buried her hands into Ginny's hair and returned the kiss faking a moan her half lidded eyes alight with amusement ad they watched Umbridge turn redder and redder.
"DETENTION FOR TWO WEEKS," the professor yelled before storming out of the hall, once she was gone, she pulled away from Ginny and laughed.
"What the hell was that, when did you start shagging my sister," Ron asked pointing between the two of them his mouth open in shock.
"Keep up Ronald, we were only showing Umbitch that her rules were stupid because they assumed that every student in the school is heteronormative. The only Weasley Hermione wants to shag is Fred," Ginny told her brother reaching over to steal a sausage off his plate.
"Hey, get off," he told her pulling his plate away from the other red head.
"Still up for breaking Educational Decree 26 later," Hermione asked Fred as the food cleared away from the table.
"So long as you leave my sister in the tower, I'm up for a little rule breaking with you Mi," he told her leaning down to kiss her cheek.
"It's a date," she smiled up at him happily as she gathered all her bag for class.
"Hermione you can't shag all of my siblings," Ron complained as they walked towards Potions.
"I like Fred not all of them and I'm not ready to shag him Ronald, I just want to date him and kiss him for now," she told him.
"Uhm, I don't know if I like this new you Mione," he moaned as they entered the classroom.
"I love it, I haven't laughed so much in years," Harry chuckled taking his seat.
"As entertaining as that display was Miss Granger, I trust you will leave the antics within the Great Hall, Ten Points to Gryffindor for turning that horrid purple now pull out your textbooks and turn to page 280 please," Professor Snape Drawled as he swept into the classroom his cloak billowing behind him.
