So this is Chapter 5. Not much to say about it. But enjoy.
Hermione silently lay on her bed next to Jewelle, as she was thinking about all that had happened to her that summer. She didn't know if she wanted to go to Hogwarts doing the same thing that she has been doing this summer, of course it was al fun and games, but school would soon be starting and she had to get back into the habit she's used to while in school. So Hermione quietly slipped out of Jewelle's bed hoping not to make a sound or wake up Jewelle. She silently tipped toed out of her room and shut the door as quietly as possible. Hermione let out a sigh and just looked around the hallway. Pictures of Jewelle and her family were posted all along the walls. Hermione silently walked down the hallway observing them all. One picture was of Jewelle and her father at a water park when Jewelle was about 13 years old. Hermione laughed to herself as she noticed that Jewelle was making a silly face at the camera. Another picture was of Jewelle's Parents together eating dinner making a toast. Hermione presumes that it was either their wedding or and anniversary. The next picture made Hermione's hairs stand on edge. It was a picture of a handsome young man with brunette hair and vivid sea green eyes. He had a mysterious vibe to him, along with being very good looking something about him didn't sit right with Hermione. Hermione shrugged off this feeling and went down to the kitchen to put herself on some coffee. She sat there by herself for a while just sipping her coffee and thinking to herself.
"Hey there Hermione, couldn't sleep?" Jewelle's mother asked.
"Hi Mrs. Santane, it's not that but I just wanted some time to think about some things.'
"What kind of things, if you don't mind telling me."
"Well I don't know, I don't think you would want to here the bantering of a teenage kid." Hermione giggled.
"Why would you think that? I have you know two teenage kids, so I have heard it all. But if you don't feel comfortable talking to me then you know there is always just writing it down in a diary of some sort." Mrs. Santane offered.
"Well I really don't have an adult figure to talk to since my mom and everything, and it's not that I don't trust you but I don't feel really, really comfortable talking to you about it. And Jewelle is my age also so I don't talking to her would help. So I think I should just stick with writing it down. But I don't have anything to write it on."
"Well I will get you something. Call it a going away gift if you will. I will have it for you later this evening before you and Jewelle head over to this Ronald what-shis-name house okay sweetie. And you know if you do come around to feeling comfortable around me. Just let me know" Mrs. Santane offered as she reached around and gave Hermione a tight squeeze.
Hermione and Mrs. Santane pulled apart as they just sat there silently drinking coffee, thinking about what their lives held, when they heard someone announce their presences.
"Why hello loves, glad that you both are up. Thank you for waking me up" Declared Jewelle.
"Sorry you just looked so peaceful sleeping" Hermione laughed.
"Hard-e har har. Anywho what's on the agenda for today Mio? A day at the verandah with they guys, doing you know what. Or a nice quiet day watching the telly?" Jewelle asked.
"Um actually Jewelle I'm going to spend today just relaxing by myself. If you don't mind I haven't had much time to myself lately so I just thought…….." But Hermione didn't finish when she saw the hurt look in Jewelle's eyes.
"It's okay. I guess that one day apart won't kill us, I guess I will just kill some time here, ya know studying more on Hogwarts. Then I guess me and me mum can go get Steve from the airport." Jewelle's said calmly.
"Oh your brother is coming today? Why I thought he was going to stay in Egypt with your aunt?"
"No, auntie can't handle him, so he is going to come home and he's coming to Hogwarts also."
"Well I'm sorry dear but I won't be able to go with you to the airport. But your dad will go with you okay sweetie." Jewelle's mother offered.
"Fine, see ya later Mio. I'm upstairs to go just chill and what not. So bye" With that Jewelle climbed back up the stairs to her room and a loud slam was heard shortly after.
"Well that went well. See you later this evening Mrs. Santane. I think I will go into muggle London for a day. You know just to clear my thought and get to know the scenery. I might go visit my mum."
"Okay dear you have a key. I will see you later. I will have your gift then also. Bye dear"
Hermione then proceeded to go to her spare room, which was located on the lower level. She rarely stayed there because she basically moved into Jewelle's room. As she opened the door she was greeted by a snowy owl with a letter attached to its leg. Hermione walked over gleefully to the owl and gently took the letter from her leg, she gave Hedwig a treat and she flew off into the sky.
Dear Hermione,
How have you been? I haven't heard of seen of you in a while, Right now me and Ginny are going to be heading back to the burrow, to apparently meet a new friend of yours. Ron considers her HOT. Well that is great news Mione, you have a friend. Lol Sorry couldn't resist. Well everything on this end is fine, I have a new home, here in California, and I still own Grimmwauld Place, but I just needed a break. So I decided to take Ginny with me on a Minnie vacation since she didn't have anything else to do. Mione I think I love her, I mean we are not officially together yet I mean everyone believes us to be, but we've just gotten closer over the summer. I want to officially ask her out. So can you do me a huge favor? Could you ask her, I mean about me. Us?? I would truly appreciate it! Well I will see you soon. How has your summer been?
Love,
Harry
Hermione just read the letter and just smiled to herself, Harry could be a little over dramatic at times, but it seems that he truly is in love with Ginny. I mean he took her out to his home in California; o it had to be big right? Hermione decided to put the letter away and just talk to Ginny tonight. Hermione got up and moved over to her dresser that has most of her clothes that she did not keep in Jewelle's room. Feeling like a day jut to relax, she put on her hip hugger jeans, and a College hoodie with some flips flops and her Victoria secrets bag and walked out the house.
Draco had had enough of staying at home, so he decided to go out to muggle London to pick up a few things that Jasmine told him about, something he did often when his father was away on business trips. Since Draco wanted to look incognito, he put on some simple blue jeans, and a green, white, and yellow striped polo. He put on a pair of white green and yellow puma's Draco had to admit he liked the way muggles dressed, he didn't have to worry about those heavy robes holding him down and making him feel hot underneath. Draco left his quarters and walked quietly down the hall into the dining room. He saw his mother sitting on the couch reading a magazine while sipping on some fire-whisky.
"Mother, I'm going out to muggle London. Do you want me to pick you up something?" Draco asked cautiously. Draco and his mother shared the same love of muggle things as much as Arthur Weasley. They just couldn't let Lucius know because he would likely kill them both.
"Oh yes dear I would love it if you stopped by Victoria secrets for me and buy me in stock some of that delectable Love Spell, Lucius loves it. Yet he has no idea that is it a muggle product. The irony, also do mind if you stop by cold stone creamery and pick me up anything that has sweet cream ice cream. Buy it in a tub if possible. Thank you Draco" his mother said as she blew him a kiss.
"Okay mother if father comes home make sure to page me on my cell phone okay. Oh and Jasmine says hello." Draco finished as he walked out the door on his way to his favorite spot in the world. Muggle London.
Hermione had been to the bookstore where she picked up a few books for reading in her spare time. She had stuffed her bag full of books when she realized that she needed to stock up on her shampoos and lotions from Victoria's Secrets. As Hermione rounded the corner she bumped into a tall blonde and dropped her bag.
"Oh I'm sorry sir, how clumsy of me." Hermione stuttered.
"It's okay, do you need any help?" Offered the tall male
"I'll be okay, thank you"
"Hey your Victoria secret's bag is nice, you shop there too? My mother loves their perfumes" The stranger commented on her bag.
"Well thank you, I love their perfumes too. As a matter of fact I'm on my way there now to pick up a few things. Would you like to join me?" Hermione asked.
"Sure I would love to. By the way my name is Draco. Draco Malfoy and you are"
"MALFOY!!" screeched Hermione
"GRANGER?"
