Chapter VI – Don't Buggger Me; Well Maybe
Ron and Hermione went up the stairs holding hands but Hermione was thinking rapidly. She was having second thoughts about what she told Ron that afternoon; that she wanted him to bugger her sometime. What if wants to do it tonight; oh god do I let him or tell him no? How will he feel; will he think I lied to him or were teasing him?
They stopped at the loo first and when they got to the room Ron stripped down quickly and got into bed. Hermione puttered around the room delaying the time she would have to get in bed with Ron. Finally Ron said, "Come on Hermione get undressed, shut off the light and come to bed."
"Oh, you can't wait to get me in that bed; can you Ronald. What if I don't want to get in bed with you?"
Ron was speechless at first but finally he said, "Hermione, what did I do? If I said or did something to upset you I'm sorry. Tell me how I can make it up to you."
Hermione started crying, "Oh Ron, I'm sorry you didn't do anything, I'm just having second thoughts about you buggering me and I didn't know how to tell you."
"Hermione," Ron said as he got out of bed to hug her "I don't care about buggering you; I care about you. Like Harry said in the sitting room I would never force you to do something you don't want to do."
They sat on the edge of the bed, Ron naked and Hermione still dressed, until she stopped crying. Then she said, "I'm okay now. You can get back in bed and I'll get the lights and be right there."
Hermione got undressed folding her clothes over a chair arm shut off the light and got in with Ron. "Hold me for a while." she said. "You don't know how hard it is for me to talk about sex. I fell in love with you our first year but I couldn't bring myself to tell you. Every summer my mother would have a sex talk with me about how someday I would meet a boy, fall in love, and want to have sex to share that love. I was always so embarrassed when she said things like that.
I couldn't tell her I had already met a boy I wanted to have sex with; I couldn't talk with you or my mother about it. Then when Dumbledore explained how Voldemort might try to kill us all because we know Harry I panicked. What if you or I were killed and I never told you how I felt. When Dumbledore told me I would go live with your family I decided that if I couldn't tell you I would trick you into loving me. I set up the whole thing at Grimmauld Place just so I wouldn't have to say it out loud. I'm sorry I tricked you."
"I'm not." said Ron. "I feel the same as you but I was just not smart enough to trick you into coming after me."
Ron rolled over and pulled her close putting his arm over her. They stayed like that for about fifteen minutes before Hermione raised her head and kissed Ron. You're so sweet to put up with me. I don't know why I got so upset."
"Don't worry about it." Ron said "If you just want to go to sleep that's alright with me. Whatever you want is alright with me."
What I want is for you to make love to me." Hermione said. "Be gentle and make love like you did out in the grass today."
Ron was unsure of himself but started kissing her when he felt her body relax he moved down her body to kiss and play with her breasts. She started to respond as she had in the past and Ron got more aggressive; moving his hand down to rub her clitoris, then into her vagina as she reached for his penis to rub it.
What had happened was forgotten by both of them and soon Hermione reached an orgasm. Ron was gentle as she asked but it wasn't long before she asked, "Ron please make love to me. I want to feel you inside me; I want to feel your warm seed filling me. Love me now Ron." And he did. Then they held each other falling asleep while spooning.
About two Hermione woke and smiled in the dark as she heard Ron snoring softly. He does love me she thought I have what I wanted for years a wonderful man and lover.
After a few minutes thinking of Ron, Hermione felt the need to make love again. She rolled over slowly and kissed him as he slept she continued kissing down his chest until she reached his nipples. As she kissed them she reached for his penis and Ron stirred opening his eyes and realizing what Hermione was doing.
Now that she knew Ron was awake Hermione kissed her way down him until she was kissing the head of his penis while rubbing his shaft. Pushing off the covers she turned her body to bring her opening into reach of Ron's mouth. They were lying on their sides next to each other and Ron lifted Hermione's leg so he could tongue her. He rested his head on the inside of her thigh and alternated between licking her clitoris and pushing his tongue as far into her as he could. He was rewarded by her moaning and squirming about.
After she had two orgasms Ron new she was ready to be penetrated and he positioned her on her knees, head down and ass up. He slid his penis in and humped her until she had another orgasm and he had filled her vagina with his sperm.
Exhausted they cuddled together again and slept until five in the morning when the light starting to come through the window awoke them and they continued to lay there saying the things lovers say to each other in bed. Ron rubbed Hermione's breasts teasing her nipples.
Ron said, "It will be time to shower soon, my mom will be getting breakfast ready for dad before he leaves for work."
"Not yet." Hermione said "Let's stay like this a little longer." Then she reached down to hold and stroke his penis again.
Ron smiled and responded by reaching between her legs to stimulate her.
"Rub my back first." Hermione said. "I always love that." She rolled onto her stomach with her head turned sideways and arms up, hands tucked under the pillow.
Ron sat up and straddled Hermione's legs leaning forward so he could reach her shoulders. He started massaging her there and worked his way down her back using his fingers to soothe her back muscles. When he reached her ass he considered what to do next. He knew she also would like her legs done so he asked, "Want me to do your legs too?"
"That would be wonderful." she answered.
So Ron moved to the end of the bed and started at her feet rubbing the soles then her ankles. He moved up her calves and behind her knees. She loved the back of her knees rubbed. As he got above her knees he moved up and she spread her legs to let him sit between them as he rubbed. He knew she wanted him to make love one more time and he was to rub her legs upward until he was at her opening. Once he was rubbing her there she would give him a sign when she was ready.
As he got to her clitoris and was starting to finger her opening she reached her hands back and pulled her ass cheeks apart. "Go slowly and be gentle." she said quietly. Ron was unsure after last night but thought to himself if she wants me to stop I will, she can't get mad at me if she asked me to do it.
All her fluid from their earlier sex had dried so Ron licked his finger to wet it and started to rub her anus. When she didn't say anything he pushed his index finger against her until it slid into her anus to his first knuckle. She tensed up a little but still said nothing so Ron pushed a little deeper to his second knuckle; then he started wiggling his finger and pulling out and back in slowly.
After a couple of minutes Hermione said, "It hurt a little at first but now I think I'm getting more relaxed. Katie and Alicia said if you're tense it will hurt a lot but if you relax it starts to feel good."
Encouraged that she said that, and not to stop, Ron pulled his finger out, wet his thumb and pushed it in her anus using his finger to rub her clitoris. She groaned slightly as his thumb went it but was soon moaning in pleasure. This was as far as he got when he tried this before but now she seemed to be enjoying it so he wiggled his thumb around trying to stretch her anus wider in preparation for what was to come. Ron knew she was enjoying it when she had an orgasm and he used her lover's lotion to wet his penis.
He positioned it at her anus instead of her vagina and slowly pushed it into her. She groaned and he stopped. "It's okay," she said "it hurts some but just go slowly." He pushed into her slowly and she groaned more and squirmed a little. It took several minutes to slowly push his penis all the way into her. She nodded and said, "It's not too bad, go ahead."
Ron started to go in and out slowly at first. He remembered Fred and George telling him the nerve that gave a girl her orgasm was in tissue between the vagina and the anus so when you bugger a girl try and rub your penis at an angle to stimulate that area. He adjusted his position and soon Hermione was moaning in pleasure instead of groaning in pain.
When she had an orgasm Ron knew everything would be okay and she wouldn't be upset. He as he started shooting his sperm into her anus she yelled, "Oh that burns!" so he pulled out and finished by shooting the last of his sperm on her ass cheeks.
As they lay resting again Hermione said, "That wasn't as nice as regular sex but it didn't hurt much and I did reach an orgasm. Maybe we'll try it again sometime and see if it gets better with experience. For now we better get that shower.
Not wanting to put her clothes on with Ron's sperm on her ass and legs she borrowed one of Ron's old robes and rolled yesterday's clothes up in her hands. Ron wore another robe and they left for the shower.
Harry and Ginny were soaped up in the shower and planning to finish what they had started the night Harry passed out when the door opened and Ron and Hermione came in not realizing the room was occupied.
When Ron and Hermione heard the moaning and noise from the shower they froze just long enough for Harry who heard the door open to stick his head out from behind the shower curtain to see who was there.
"Sorry," Ron said "we didn't mean to intrude."
"Our fault," Harry said "I guess I forgot to lock the door. You two want to wait in Ginny's room we'll be done in a minute. Ron, how about throwing our dressing gowns in here it seems we forgot to bring our clothes."
The mood spoiled Harry and Ginny rinsed off and Ron opened the door a crack and threw in two of Ginny's dressing gowns. "Sorry again Harry," he said "but I don't see your robe anywhere."
After drying off Harry wrapped the larger of Ginny's dressing gowns around him and with his privates barely covered they returned to Ginny's room. "You two can have the shower now." Harry said.
"You two want to go swimming again this afternoon?" Ron asked.
"How about a little two on two Quidditch?" Harry asked. "I haven't been on a broom in a long time."
Hermione who didn't like flying was hesitant but finally agreed. "After breakfast then," Ron said "before mom finds work for us to do." Then Ron and Hermione went to shower while Harry said, "I have to go up to Ron's room to get clean clothes; I'll be back in five minutes."
On the way up stairs still wearing Ginny's too small dressing gown with his clothes from yesterday rolled up in his hands Harry ran into Mr. Weasley on his way down to breakfast.
Mr. Weasley looked at Harry and said, "Slightly out of fashion Harry but I like it. Please don't let Molly see you in it she's upset enough already without knowing you wear girls' clothes."
Harry was so embarrassed he couldn't respond and just ran into Ron's room to get dressed. After Ron got back from the shower and dressed they went to meet the girls and go to breakfast. Harry also couldn't tell Ginny what happened with her father but Ginny sensed something and thought "Harry what happened with my father; you're thinking about him."
Harry responded, "Nothing, I just bumped into him in the hall."
When Mr. Weasley saw Harry come into the kitchen in his regular clothes he said, "Not as chic as your last outfit Harry but much more practical."
Harry turned as red as Ginny's hair but said nothing till Ginny looked into Harry's mind and sensed him trying to hide something from her. She asked, "Dad, what do mean by Harry's outfit being chic?"
"Nothing special," Mr. Weasley said, "just that I didn't know Harry was so fashionable."
Finally Harry felt he had to speak, "Mr. Weasley I don't usually dress …"
Mr. Weasley stopped him and laughed, "Just kidding Harry; no offence meant. Didn't you know I have a sense of humor; I did live with Fred and George for eighteen years. Welcome to the family Harry.
I have to get going; I want to catch my Obliviator friend before he heads out on a job. Don't worry I'll be discrete."
Harry relaxed now and in response to Ginny's puzzled look he thought "I'll explain later."
After breakfast Harry got his Firebolt from his room. Hermione, because of her dislike of flying, didn't own a broom; so she went with Ron, and Ginny to the Weasley's broom shed and she borrowed Fred's.
They spent the morning playing two on two Quidditch; Harry and Hermione against Ron and Ginny. Ginny was very good and gave Harry something to think about as he started off being easy on her and ended trying his hardest not to let her beat him.
At lunch Mrs. Weasley found work for them all to do that afternoon; the girls in the house and the boys in the yard. Harry and Hermione were glad to help since the Weasley's wouldn't accept any money from them; and since they were living there all summer just the cost of food added up to many Galleons.
When they finished the work for Mrs. Weasley Ron, Ginny, and Harry wanted to go out and play Quidditch until dinner but Hermione begged off. "I want to recheck the twin's books again for anything I might have missed."
Hermione was stretched out on one of the beds in the twins' room for more than an hour now pouring over their seventh year text books looking for information on erasing memories and how a connection between minds might result.
"Well, Granger I never thought I'd see you waiting for me on my bed." Fred said.
Hermione looked up to see the twins standing in the doorway.
"That's right," said George "from what we heard from Bill we expected to see you on Ron's bed. But if he's not good enough in bed to keep you happy you're always welcome here."
Hermione turned red but kept her temper. "Ron great in bed; he and I are perfectly happy." she said. "I'm here because I wanted to look through some of your old text books."
"Can't get enough of school; can you. If you want to buy or rent them we can offer you a good price." George said.
"If you were talking to Bill then you should also know about Harry and Ginny's problem."
"Yes," Fred said "we heard about them being together and we'll be having a little talk with Harry about how he treats our sister."
"We also heard about this connection between them." George added. "But we're not quite clear on that. Enlighten us."
"I'm not sure I can." Hermione said. "That's what I'm looking for in your books; information on what's happening to Ginny and Harry. Since I can't get to Hogwarts' library these are the most advanced books I can get my hands on.
Harry and Ginny have been feeling each other's emotions since Harry got here a few days ago and today they started hearing each other's thoughts. I thought if I could information on what could have caused it maybe we could figure out how to reverse it."
Fred said, "Well if it's to help Ginny and Harry you can have whatever of ours you need."
George added, "But we don't think you'll find much in those texts; their pretty basic. Why don't you just go to Hogwarts and get the books you need?"
Its summer," Hermione said in astonishment "I can just go to the school in the middle of summer break."
"Why not?" George asked. "We went up to see Hagrid one summer when Charlie was in from Romania. Just check first to be sure it's okay with one of the teachers and hop the flue network."
"Let us know if we can do anything else to help." Fred said. "We just stopped to pick up some supplies we left here; so we'll be going. Where is Harry anyway?"
Hermione said, "Ron, Ginny and Harry are practicing some Quidditch maneuvers out back before dinner. But remember Harry didn't seduce Ginny, she went after him. So if you intend to talk to Harry about being with Ginny, remember she hears in her mind everything Harry hears. Unless you want to be hexed by her watch what you say to Harry."
"We're just looking to have some fun at Harry's expense." George said. "We've known Ginny all her life and we have no doubt she went after Harry like a Bowtruckle after faire eggs. Don't forget we were in the room across the hall from them last year at Grimmauld Place and we had extendable ears."
"All summer she tried to bed him every way except stunning him and stripping him down. We were beginning to think Harry was gay for not jumping her bones sooner." Fred said.
After the twins left Hermione went back to her room and dug through her school trunk until she found the letter she knew she would need. She thought of the best way to say what she wanted and jotted it down in a quick note.
When Mrs. Weasley called everyone to dinner she went to the kitchen and found everyone else already there.
"Harry," Hermione asked "can I borrow Hedwig; I want to send a letter. I think I can get some more reference books without giving away your secret."
"Sure Hermione," Harry said "but I sent Hedwig with a letter to Lupin last night and she hasn't returned yet. I'll let you know when she's back."
"If you're in a hurry you can use Pigwidgeon." Ron said.
"Thanks Ron," she said. "Give me five minutes after dinner and I'll meet you in your room."
Hermione came in with a note and Ron held Pigwidgeon while she tied the letter to the owl's leg. Then she said, "Wait for a response." The tiny owl hooted once and Hermione tossed it out the window.
Around nine Mr. Weasley arrived home and as he ate everyone gathered in the kitchen to hear what Hopkins had to say about Ginny and Harry's mental connection.
"It can't happen." Mr. Weasley said "At least it never happened as far as Hopkins knows; and he checked some records in the Obliviators Office.
I told him everything as we outlined it last night and the first thing he asked is who it was that erased someone's memory, because it's illegal and punishable by a year in Azkaban. I told him I don't know who did it; that's part of what I'm trying to figure out. I'm not sure he believed me but I couldn't very well say Dumbledore did it and have the ministry after him again.
Next he wanted to know who the two people are with this supposed connection. I think he suspects someone if tricking me. I told him the two people are close personal friends of mine and I knew this connection to be real. That my "Friends" wouldn't lie to me and besides I did several tests to check if it were real because I didn't believe it a first. I think he still doubts my story.
That's when he told me no such thing can happen and he explained how Obliviators erase memories and why it can happen.
Memories are almost always erased soon after the ministry discovers something happened that needs to be kept secret; generally something like a muggle seeing someone performing magic or seeing a dragon. It takes some time for memories to be fixed into the mind. That's why we don't remember everything we do every day. Erasing a memory that is not yet fixed is easy and leaves a small time gap in time that people usually don't even notice.
Erasing a memory that has been fixed is a little harder and the task is given to more experienced specially trained Obliviators. It requires placing a person asleep and takes an hour or more of careful manipulation of the mind. Often false memories have to be implanted to fill the missing time gap so the person doesn't notice it.
I explained how your case involved an entire month of memories of both people and he said no obliviator would even try doing it. Only a fool thinks they could erase a month's worth of memories common to two people and get away with it.
When I insisted everything I told him was true his last suggestion was to see an Unspeakable in the department of mysteries who specialized in the theory of Magic. I know a few unspeakable but I don't know what any of them do down there and none of them owe me a favor. So I guess this is a dead end. Anyone have another idea."
Hermione said, "I do and I got started on it after dinner but I won't know if it will work out until at least tomorrow."
"What is it?" Harry asked.
"I don't want to say until I know if I have a chance." Hermione said. "I'll let you know as soon as I know."
The next morning when breakfast was finished and as they were clearing the table Pigwidgeon arrive and presented his leg with a letter tied on it to Hermione.
She read it quickly and said, "Mrs. Weasley, I need to visit someone this morning. Would it be okay if I used your fireplace so I could travel by the flue network?"
"Well, yes Hermione," she answered "but aren't you supposed to stay here. Didn't Dumbledore tell you not to go anywhere?"
"No, Hermione said, "he did tell Harry not to leave the Burrow but he never said I couldn't go out."
Ginny asked, "Where are you going Hermione?"
"Come up to the bedroom with me and I tell you the whole thing." Hermione said.
When they got upstairs Hermione showed Ginny the letter Dumbledore gave her last summer.
"I give permission for Miss Hermione Jean Granger to access all material in the restricted section of the library at any time in the future."
Headmaster
Albus Percival Wolfric Brian Dumbledore
Hermione told Ginny, "I wrote to Professor McGonagall and told her about this and asked if I could come to Hogwarts by flue network to do some research. She said she would be there all day today and tomorrow because Dumbledore is gone and as Assistant Headmistress she is working on school business.
I plan on using the library to find information on what's happening between you and Harry; if there is any information. By the way any change in your connection?"
"Yes," Ginny said "it's getting stronger and harder to block Harry out of my mind. Anything I try to do has his thoughts in the background. He's up in Ron's room now reading "Flying With the Cannons" for the sixth time.
Hermione, do you think McGonagall would mind if I came with you? I could help and maybe being so far from Harry will weaken the connection and give both our minds a rest. Knowing his thoughts and feelings is wonderful sometimes but a person needs a rest even from the nicest things."
I think it will be okay with McGonagall; "said Hermione "if your mother lets you go."
"I'll ask," Ginny said "after all it's Hogwarts and it's perfectly safe there"
It took a little convincing but because they were looking for a solution to Harry and Ginny's problem Mrs. Weasley finally gave in.
Hermione went first disappearing in a burst of green flames from the Weasley's fireplace followed by Ginny. When Ginny arrived in Professor McGonagall's office she found them both waiting for her.
Hermione was showing McGonagall the letter from Dumbledore.
"Well, I suppose if Professor Dumbledore gave you that letter he meant it. Can you tell me what you're looking for? Perhaps I could help since Madam Pince is away visiting her brother's family."
"It's a little difficult to explain without undoing something Professor Dumbledore wanted to be kept secret" Hermione said not wanting to tell McGonagall what had happened especially since she might tell Dumbledore and he might come and erase their memories again.
Ginny broke in, "Professor we'll have to ask you to promise not to tell anyone else about us being here, not even Professor Dumbledore until we're ready; we want to sort of surprise him."
"You're doing something to surprise the Headmaster." she asked.
"It's not exactly what we're doing that will surprise him;" Ginny continued "I meant we're hoping to finish something that Professor Dumbledore got us started on when he talked to us about it last year at Grimmauld Place. We think maybe we can finish it before school resumes in September. That we found a solution so soon is what will surprise him."
"I see," said McGonagall "well I promise not to tell him unless you two get into some type of trouble. Miss Granger, Mr. Potter, and your brother are notorious for getting into trouble. I hope they're not dragging you into their plans Miss Weasley."
Hermione answered her, "No Professor I'm not. So will it be alright for us to head to the library now."
"Yes, yes," she said "go along so I can get back to my own work; but you have to be gone from Hogwarts before dark. Students are not allowed to be in the halls at night whether it's winter or summer."
Hermione and Ginny spent the morning looking through books on memory and erasing it but found nothing about mental connections forming because if it.
"I'm hungry, let's go to the kitchen and get something to eat," Ginny said "then we can come and look some more."
They went down to the basement hall where Hermione tickled to pear in the picture of a bowl of fruit. It turned into a knob and she pulled the door to the kitchen open. They didn't get three steps inside before half a dozen house elves approached and asked. "What can we get for you mistresses?"
"Just some food," Hermione said "anything at all for me; Ginny do you want anything special?"
"Anything will be fine." Ginny said. "Harry wants to know if Dobby is here."
"Yes, mistress he is cleaning on the fifth floor; do you wish to speak to him?"
"Yes please." Ginny said.
"You still sense Harry's thoughts even more than five hundred miles away?" Hermione asked.
"Yes, Ginny answered "but there not as strong. I've been blocking him out while we were in the library but he is there in the back of my mind even here."
Dobby appeared with a crack and said, "Mistress Granger, mistress Weasley, Dobby is happy to see you. Master Harry Potter is here also but I don't see him."
"Harry is not here," Ginny said "but he wanted me to ask you to do a favor for him."
"Harry Potter is here!" He looked strangely at Ginny and said. "Dobby can feel his presence."
Hermione also looked at Ginny as Ginny said, "Dobby, there is a new house elf that just arrived at Hogwarts this past month. "
"Yes, Dobby said "Kreacher, Harry Potter's elf."
"Yes," Ginny said "Harry wants you to watch Kreacher and if he tries to leave Hogwarts of does anything else odd you are to tell Harry immediately."
Dobby said, "Harry Potter ordered Kreacher to come here and work in the kitchen. Kreacher must obey his master."
Ginny went on, "Well yes, but Harry wants to be sure; so will you tell Harry if Kreacher doesn't obey."
"Yes!"he answered "Dobby is always happy to help Harry Potter."
He looked at Ginny again and said, "Harry Potter, you are trying to trick Dobby, you are here in disguise and can call Kreacher yourself and check on him."
Ginny looked puzzled but Hermione said, "Ginny call Kreacher and give him an order."
Ginny called out, "Kreacher come here."
Crack, Kreacher appeared, "Master called Kreacher? But Kreacher does not see master only the mudblood and blood traitor girls."
Kreacher looked at Ginny again. "Master tries to fool Kreacher. Master pretends to be someone else but Kreacher knows."
Under his breath Kreacher continued to mumble, "Miserable master, Kreacher is ashamed to have such a master. A master that is friends with mudbloods and…"
Ginny interrupted him by yelling, "Kreacher, stop talking! You will not call people blood traitors or mudbloods. You will stay ay Hogwarts and work in the kitchen. Your master orders it."
"Yes master," Kreacher hears and will obey." And under his breath he added Kreacher will obey because he must but Kreacher is still ashamed to have..."
Ginny yelled again, "Kreacher get out of my sight and back to work."
With a crack he was gone.
Hermione said, "That was very interesting. Let's eat; I want to get back to the library. That gave me a new idea to check on."
As they ate they talked about what it was like for Harry and Ginny to feel the other person's emotions and know their thoughts. Hermione kept asking Ginny to explain it in more detail.
Finally Hermione asked outright, "How does it feel having Harry's orgasm on top of yours? I'm sorry, I know we said we wouldn't ask about those things but I just can't imagine how that would feel and you know me; I want to know about everything. You don't have to answer."
Ginny looked at her and said, "I understand; I would be curious if I heard it was happening to someone else.
It's hard to describe. I get a feeling in a part of my body I don't even have; but when it is happening my mind tells me I do have a penis and the feeling is real even though I know its Harry's penis where the orgasm is actually happening.
To tell the truth Harry's orgasm isn't nearly as good as my own. Harry knows it to. He said a couple of times he didn't know sex was so wonderful for a girl. I don't know if all girl orgasms are better than all boy orgasms; since Harry and I are the only people this happens to I guess nobody will ever know for sure."
They were finished eating and as they left the kitchen Hermione said, Ginny, you head back to the library; I want to make a quick stop first. I'll meet you there in a few minutes."
"Do you have another idea?" Ginny asked "Tell me."
"I got a crazy idea." Hermione said. "But I don't know if I can pull it off and I don't want to get you in trouble if I am caught trying it. Remember McGonagall asked if I was getting you involved in trouble and I told her no. If it works I'll tell you all about it. So I'll meet you in the library in a few minutes. Okay?"
Actually it was a half an hour before Hermione arrived in the library. Ginny asked, "Well, did it work?"
"Oh, I just got started." Hermione said "I won't know if it works for at least a month. Now let's look in the restricted section for books on being possessed.
It was after five when Hermione and Ginny with a handful of books went back to Professor McGonagall's office to take the flue network back to the Burrow.
"Did you two find what you were looking for?" she asked.
"Perhaps, Professor." Hermione said. "I won't be sure until I go over these books. Thank you for letting us use the library."
"I trust you will return those books when you are finished." McGonagall said.
"Yes Professor, of course." Hermione said. "We left a note for Madam Pince with the list of the books we are taking."
They said good-by and Ginny and Hermione stepped into the fireplace one at a time to return to the Burrow.
