His head was banging no it was on fire he couldn't remember anything everything was dark there was also a feeling as if he lost something suddenly there was a rap on his door and a bolt being drawn back he quickly moved remembering his rule never upset the Dursleys. He got on with his daily chores.
In Crawley a similar situation was occurring however it included the whole house hold and to Hermione it could be described as a 'lit fire on you're head' she had bought her shopping and was happy with it but again felt something missing something not clicking into place. She shoved it out of her head, school was soon why not revise?
this routine of waking up with pain they got used to Harry went to diagon alley on his birthday and on the day of the first of September they were all excited they didn't feel pain nor sadness and even Harry had merger hope this wasn't just a dream.
For Harry getting to kings cross station was easy as vernon didn't want him any longer he was surprised they didn't set off at midnight however he got there a good half hour before he was supposed to be on. fortunately he knew where to go as of Hagrid and was happy he sat as far back as he could trying not to get noticed or to be mobbed because of his fame.
Hermione being who she was got there quite early only ten minutes after Harry. She looked down the train trying to gauge how many people were on it. None that was until she came to the last compartment her heart stopped she choked before reaching for the wall, something was clicking into place it felt right she slowly stopped leaning and went for the compartment door she was getting overwhelmed by something she didn't want to process she entered and said simply "hello do you mind if I sit with you?" reaching out her hand. It was taken by the boy with a smile and said "of course I don't my name is Harry."
"I'm Hermione." she replied after a couple of seconds something broke like a knot not tied properly and memories flooded back to her, Of Harry and her going to diagnon alley,them being married in the wizarding world and more and to the fact of when she could now remember most of Harrys days made her cry and repeatedly say "I'm sorry for leaving you Harry I'm sorry."
Harry was flabbergasted and all he could manage was "do you still love me?"
"boys" Hermione thought to herself before saying "Harry I will never not love you."
they sat there in comfortable silence for a while just holding onto each other before a blond haired boy barged thourgh the compartment door saying "is Harry potter in here rumour is he's on the train."
seeing Harry's face drop she knew he wanted to say no but would by Dursleys law have to say yes so spoke for him "no he's not have you checked the front of the train."
"I most certainly have goodbye." He finished with a hiss and an ignorant tone.
once left Hermione spoke "Harry this didn't happen by coincidence do you know who could of engineered the event?"
he thought back he seen blue eyes not very detailed but unique he said stuttering "just blue eyes, nothing."
thinking to herself she thought "I will kill to make sure this doesn't happen again" just the thought of him going to the Dursleys made her shudder. Deciding to ask a question she had been pondering for a while before the memory wipe she asked,"Harry why is it that you practically never read my thoughts but I can near certainly always hear yours?"
"Because they're you're thoughts not mine what about if you don't want me to see it?"
"Harry that's thoughtful of you but my thoughts are just as well as yours if you don't want to because of some other reason fine but if it's because of you thinking it's rude or unnessceory then you're wrong I don't mind sharing anything with you."
Harry realising this was a battle he would never win with a cover story said,"I dont actually know but it feels as if you have like some kind of wall protecting you're mind."
"for that awnser Harry here," She said kissing him on the cheek,"being truthful gets rewards now tell me about the dursleys and no cover ups remember i hear all you're thoughts about coverups."
"well I'm fine and it went quite good." he said after wich he noticed the daggers in Hermione's eyes and continued "i only got one more scar."
"Harry you do know that when we get to Hogwarts a I swear to god the first thing I am going to do though reluctantly is get some disinfectment on you're back. But thank you now shall we get changed as we have been talking for a while."
"well how?"
"as we always did Harry"
the train ride continued nicely with no more interruptions apart from a scratch at the window which was hedwig returning from her small flight which had been made possible by Hermione's extensive knowledge of magic.
upon reaching hogsmeade station the first years filed out and onto the boats were they were met by Hagrid. Once on the boats they rounded a corner which reviled the view of the castle from the lake which Harry thought was amazing. upon entering Hogwarts proffser Mcgonagall had greeted the group and led them to an antechamber before saying with a nod "Harry potter and Hermione please follow me the rest of you shall stay here."
once leaving the antechamber they were led though many tunnels till finally they reached an office which was obviously the proffsers.
A/N: last plea of voting for house and in addition before someone else nags me yes this story still needs a beta and you can pm if interested.
