Harry sat silently on the floor in his room against wall not sure what to do or say. Hermione had shown up with no warning and seemed to be a little out of her mind, but oddly enough Harry understood her and has sympthy for what his friend was going through.

The silence between the two of them grew and finally Harry broke the silence.

"Ron is so dense…and he's a jerk." Harry said and smiled a little.

Hermione who was sitting on his bed looked up at him and laughed softly. "thank you! Finally someone understands me!" Hermione said smiling. Harry laughed softly and got up and went over sitting next to Hermione and wrapped his arms around her and hugged her. She was like a sister to him and he hated the way Ron had acted and treated her.

Hermione smiled and hugged Harry close. "so is it ok if I stay here for awhile?" Hermione asked. Harry nodded and smiled "of course you can Hermione. And your right you know…Dumbledore does always seem to keep things from us."

She sighed, "Now how is it that we understand each other so well but Ron is just so stupid sometimes?" Harry just laughed. "He's kind of dense Hermione…you know that." Harry smiled warmly at Hermione and she knew that she made the right decision to turn to him when Ron had been such a jerk.

Hermione and Harry sat quietly for awhile, and finally Hermione broke the silence. "So it's alright that I stay here?" she looked up at Harry hopefully and she just smiled and nodded "Hermione you're like my sister of course you can stay here with me!"

That night Hermione and Harry talked for hours on end about different things that they had done this summer. Hermione and Harry lay on his bed that they had turned to face the open window and just stared out at the starlit sky.

So many things were unclear for Hermione right now, but laying there talking to her best friend she felt content and safe.

They begin to talk about school and what they were going to do and finally came up with a plan of what to do. So that night they both slept better then they had in months.

The next couple of days left Harry silently laughing to himself and smiling a lot. Since Hermione showed up the Dursley's were being nice and Uncle Vernon practically flinched every time Hermione glared at him. Dudley didn't beat up Harry anymore and Aunt Petunia was often found mumbling about witches and dying at a young age. Harry would just smile and ask her what she was talking about then Hermione would watch Aunt Petunia and motion like she was going to grab her wand then Petunia would squeal and she "nothing" then quickly leave the room.

Harry was never so happy and had never remembered having this much fun at the Dursley's. Time pasted quickly and soon Harry and Hermione were leaving to go to Diagon Alley to shop for their school supplies, and decided that they would stay at in Diagon Alley until they went back to school.

When the Dursley's found out they were leaving, they were so nice the day that Hermione and Harry were leaving that Harry couldn't help but laugh.

Harry stood outside next to the Knight Bus and watched as Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia stood outside their house waiting for Hermione to come outside. When Hermione finally came out she smiled at the Dursley's and Harry walked over to help Hermione with her bags but stopped when he heard Hermione talking.

Hermione smiled at the Dursley's then up at the morning sky that where the sun was shining brightly. "I would like to thank you for letting me stay here." Harry laughed at what Hermione said and mumbled, "Like they had a choice." Then he reached down and begins to pick up Hermione's trunk then groaned. Hermione turned to Harry, "Oh Harry doesn't hurt your back, and we can't have that maybe we should stay here until you feel better." Uncle Vernon gasped then went over and grabbed the trunk from Harry. "Oh that won't be necessary, I've got it." Hermione smiled at Uncle Vernon "oh how sweet of you dear Vernon." Harry laughed because he knew that Hermione had planned on him taking the trunk.

Hermione and Harry walked over to the Knight Bus with uncle Vernon tagging along behind them. When they reached the Knight Bus Uncle Vernon put the trunk on the bus then smiled a little and took a deep breath. "Now Harry there's no need to hurry back, stay away as long as you need to!" Harry and Hermione nodded then got on the bus as it zoomed away from the Dursley's. Harry and Hermione sat down and Hermione laughed a little, "I don't think your uncle and aunt have ever been so happy to see you leave." Harry nodded and laughed.

Hermione sighed and smiled as she sat at a café in Diagon Alley watching people walk by. She reached up and touched her straight hair and smiled to herself, Harry had thought that since Hermione had a new attitude that she needed a new look to go with it. So she now had straight hair and wore natural colored makeup.

She loved to sit and watch people walk around Diagon Alley, and seeing as how this was her last day here at Diagon Alley she wanted to spend most of it here.

She sipped some lemonade and smiled at a happy couple walking around picking out flowers for their wedding.

Just as Hermione was starting to relax she felt a cool hand on her shoulder. "Hermione, we need to talk?" Hermione realized who it was and immediately got stiff. She reached up and takes the hand and removed it from her shoulder. "Don't touch me." The guy sighed and walked around her to sit across from her. "Hermione I want to apologize for what happened at my house a week ago." Hermione looked away from Ron. "Don't worry about it I'm over it." Hermione stood up to leave and Ron grabbed her hand. "Hermione wait, I…" but Hermione interrupted him and glared at him, "Ron…I distinctly remember telling you not to touch me!" Ron let go of her and she started to walk away. Ron jumped up and followed her, "Hermione wait, I'm sorry but you deserved what you got for what u said about Dumbledore." Hermione turned around quickly and glared at Ron making him flinch and wish that he could take back what he said.

"You what Ron, when you pass me in the halls of Hogwarts don't look at me. When you see me in class don't talk to me. Cause this friendship is done!" Hermione pushed him away from her and he fell back into his chair and watched as she walked away from him.
