Chapter 2
Hermione woke up early the next morning to have extra time to get ready. In previous years she'd dressed in a fairly conservative manner, but this year, she, Ginny and Luna were going to dress a bit more flirty than before seeing as it was their final year. Hermione's first act upon getting out of bed was to brush her teeth and remove her pyjamas, next she pulled on her underwear before grabbing her uniform. Her red plaid skirt was short, showing a lot of her long legs which were encased in black fishnet stockings with black lace at the top. She was wearing a white shirt with three-quarter length sleeves that she buttoned up to just above her breasts. She then tied her Gryffindor tie loosely so that it was just visible. Over the top she put a black blazer with the Gryffindor emblem stitched on the left hand side and three-quarter length sleeves like the shirt. On her feet were a pair of black stiletto Mary Jane shoes, highly polished so that they shone. Around her neck was a Gryffindor pendant made of gold and she wore a black leather bracelet around her left wrist with a golden lion on it. Her look was finished by black eyeliner around her eyes, black mascara on her eyelashes and a slick of bright red lipstick.
Meanwhile, Ginny and Luna were also getting ready in their own dorms. Ginny's uniform was more conservative than Hermione's but still less so than her dorm-mates. First she put a dark grey pleated school skirt from her second year so that it reached about two inches above her knees with a fitted white shirt and her Gryffindor tie. Over the top she wore a black cardigan with the Gryffindor crest sewn into the left. Like Hermione she wore a pair of black fishnet stockings with black lace at the top and she wore a pair of black lace-up high heeled boots. Around her neck was a gold lion necklace and in her ears she wore a pair of silver sword earrings. Her eyes were ringed in red eyeliner and she wore black mascara on her eyelashes. A slick of the same red lipstick as Hermione completed her look. Luna was wearing a light grey layered skirt with a blue pinstriped shirt that had the Ravenclaw crest sewn into it. Added to that was her Ravenclaw tie, tied around loosely around her open collar, and the same stockings as Ginny and Hermione along with a pair of dark blue lace up military style boots. For her jewellery, she wore her cork necklace, her radish earrings, her beetle ring and multicoloured bracelet with various charms added to it. Her eyes were outlined in a silvery blue eyeliner with black mascara on the lashes and some light pink lipstick on her lips. Her hair was tied in a low ponytail next to her left ear and she had her Spectospecs on top of her head.
The girls, along with Harry and Neville, met outside the Head's dorms and headed down to breakfast, the girl's uniforms causing a stir among the student body. As they all sat at the Gryffindor table to eat breakfast, Ron was staring at Hermione with obvious lust in his eyes and various other males around the school were too. While they were eating, they were given their schedules, they were all in most of the same lessons, with only a few differences.

Hermione had more lessons than the others but that didn't really surprise them, knowing just how much she loved to learn. From their seats about ten people down from him, they could hear Ron boasting about how many free periods he had. The previous year he'd taken Transfiguration, Potions, Herbology, Charms, Care of Magical Creatures, Divination and Defence Against the Dark Arts but he'd failed Transfiguration and Herbology almost as badly as Potions and had decided to drop them, especially as he'd barely passed everything else except Divination. This meant that this year he only had four lessons and gave him a rather large amount of free periods. Dumbledore had also given him the Quiddich Captain position (rumours were that he had tried to give Ron the Head Boy position too but the other staff members protested and the School Board forced him to give it to Harry).
The day passed pretty smoothly; as it was a Wednesday (they'd arrived on the Tuesday), Hermione and Harry had had History of Magic after their free period that morning while the others had had three.
"It was so interesting guys, Professor Bins said that we were going to study the Discoveries in the Muggle world that are used and have enriched the Wizarding World, starting with the Railway. Did you know that in 1825, the Stockton and Darlington Railway which was the first publicly subscribed railway in the world, was opened? Dumbledore has agreed to let us go on a field trip to Darlington Railway Museum where Locomotion No.1 is on display as the Stockton and Darlington Railway played a major part in the development of the railways!" Hermione grinned excitedly at lunch, causing all her friends to chuckle.
"It was interesting, but I'm more interested in the section on Medicine because we'll be going to Thackray Museum in Leeds to learn about Medicine through Time. The section on the History of Newspapers sounds interesting too, especially as one of the Ghost stories about Darlington Railway Museum was written down in a book by William T. Stead who was at one point the Editor of the Northern Echo which is based in Darlington. Apparently he died on the 'Titanic' in 1912." Harry grinned at his friends.
"Wow, I wish I'd taken History now!" Ginny said.
After lunch, the group made their way down to the Greenhouses for Herbology. Professor Sprout was pleased to see the group, especially Neville as he was her best student. The lesson and the rest of the day passed quicker than they expected with the only trouble coming from Ron. He seemed to have decided that Hermione should go out with him, even though she stated that he wasn't her type. Part of it might have been the very short skirts but whatever it was, he spent the entire day harassing her when he saw her. Eventually it took Draco Malfoy and Pansy Parkinson hexing him to get rid of him. Pansy seemed to have the same idea about uniform as Hermione and her friends. They Slytherin had decided to wear a short grey plaid skirt, a white shirt with her Slytherin tie, a black waistcoat, the same black fishnet stockings and a pair of black shoes with silver snakes around the heels. In her ears she wore a pair of diamond snake studs, a silver snake bracelet on her left wrist, a diamond snake necklace and a silver snake ring with an emerald on the middle finger of her right hand. Her hair was loose but held off her face with a green double headband and she had green eye shadow, silver eyeliner and black mascara on her eyes with bright red lipstick and emerald green nail varnish. She did look pretty but the sneer on her face slightly spoiled that effect.

"I wish Ron would leave me alone! I don't know what would have happened if Malfoy and Parkinson weren't around!" Hermione sighed, exasperated while they were all sat in the Heads' common room.
"I know what you mean! I had a free at the same time as him earlier and he wouldn't stop nagging me about how I should flunk my lessons because my being pushed forward a year and his being held back made him look bad!" Ginny growled, looking irritated with her brother.
"He's probably jealous of all of us." Luna said comfortingly.
"True, but it'll get worse before it gets better." Harry sighed, looking concerned.

Ronald Weasley was fuming, Dumbledore had told him that Hermione would be glad to have his attentions but instead she ignored them and refused him. If only he'd been able to get the Head Boy position like he should of, he could have fucked random girl in a prominent place where she would see them to make her jealous. He could still try that but he ran the risk of someone else catching him instead now. Still, Dumbledore could get the punishment lessened, the Golden Trio needed to stand together against Voldemort, in order for their side to win the war. Harry and Hermione knew that, deep down.
