I can feel everyone's eyes of me and I was getting even more nervous because no one moved, they all just looked at me.

"Hi guys, it's nice to see you again." I don't know if they heard me say that or not, I did it so quietly if sounded more like a whisper.

Then all of the sudden i felt arms all around me and hearing people say they were glad to see me.

"Oh Hermione! How we missed you!" Mrs. Weasly was the one to talk first after our group hug. "Come and join us for dinner, I cooked too much today anyway."

"Thank you Mrs. Weasly, I missed you too." I took an empty chair and immediately saw a plate of food appear before me. "The food is delicious just like always." She gave me warm motherly smile, and I was glad to see it again.

"Thank you Hermione, now how about you tell us what you've been to up to these past months." I was really surprised that she asked me this question so straightforwardly. I assumed we would do small talk and once everyone was more comfortable, maybe we could talk about the more sensitive subject.

"Well, I moved to cute muggle town called Basketfield. It's really cute and I love it there, the weather is always nice and the people are great. I mostly have been working on my job and enjoying the peace and quiet. It's hard to find peace nowadays especially after the war. I think it did me good to move away for awhile and forget everything that has happened." I don't really know how well they took this, but I just hope they could go pass the part that I left without telling anyone.

"That sounds very nice dear. I'm going to put away the dishes and I'll let you catch up." When she left, I got more nervous. I know Mrs. Weasly is an understanding person, but I don't know how Ron and Harry are going to take it.

"So Hermione, sounds like you been having a pretty good time." I wasn't expecting something like that come out of Ron, I thought he was going to completely explode on me.

"Look guys, I'm sorry I left without telling anyone but I had to leave. I was hurt so bad that I couldn't stay. Everything here reminds of the source of my pain and I thought that getting away would do me good. I didn't mean to hurt anyone, honest. I just couldn't have all of you always banging on my door everyday. I had to forget for awhile. I'm sorry and hope that you can forgive me." I started to tear up a bit because I know I hurt the people I love badly.

"Of course we'll forgive you Hermione, I love you and I'm just happy you're back."

"Thanks Harry, I really appreciate it." I stood from my chair and went over to give him a hug. It felt good to be with Harry again. I have missed him so much and hugging him felt right.

I looked at Ron and I was starting to worry that he wasn't going to forgive me. He looks really mad right now and I know I hurt him badly.

"Look Ron, I'm so sorry, but please forgive me. I love you so much and I can't stand having you mad at me. I promise I won't leave again without telling you, I was just hurt. Please Ron..please" I looked at him with pleading eyes, I know he's mad but I just wanted him to forgive me.

"Please?"

With a reluctant look he gave me the answer I was looking for.

"Alright, I forgive you, but promise to never leave like that again. We were all so worried and we thought you were gone forever."

"Oh Ron! Thank you so much, and I promise I won't ever leave again" I gave him a big hug and was glad that my friends forgave me.

"I love you too so much, and I always will, just remember that."

"We know Hermione, if you would excuse me and Ron, we have to get to the department, we were supposed to be there five minutes ago."

"Oh sorry guys! Go Go!" When they left, I looked at Ginny and gave her a hug.

"Thanks for being such a good friend. I love you so much."

"I love you too Hermione, now lets go up to my room and catch up on girl talk."

I laughed at that, Ginny will always be Ginny. "Ok Gin, lets go."
