Chapter Thirty: Hermione's Day
Hermione was a having an amazing dream about having her bedroom be a library and unsure what book to read first. As she's about to read the chosen book, Hermione feels someone talking to her.
"Sleepy head get up," says Ginny joyfully as she shakes her sleeping friend awake.
Hermione sleepily asks, "Why are you waking me up?" as she plan to sleep in by her own standards because her late night date with Fred.
Ginny says smiling, "I am here to get you dress for a date with one of my favourite brothers" as she moves to pull off Hermione's blankets.
Hermione shouts loudly "I am up" knowing that she will not get anymore sleep that morning.
"Have a shower," orders Ginny directing Hermione towards the dorm's bathroom ,"I will have your outfit for today's date all ready for you"
Hermione knows there's no point in agreeing with her red-head best friend, so she does as Ginny's instructs her to do.

Almost a half and hour later, Hermione comes out of the shower to see that Ginny put a pair of dark blue jeans, white tank top, and a dark blue t-shirt along with her bra and underwear.
Hermione quickly blows dry her hair with one of the useful spells that she has learned as a first year. She quickly dresses in the clothes Ginny pick out knowing that it will be better to do as Ginny asks to avoid being hex. She leaves the bathroom to find Ginny sitting on her bed holding a pair of brown boots with a black sweater beside her as well.
Ginny shoves them into Hermione's lap as she sits down beside her on the bed. Hermione puts the boots on as well as the sweater and asks, "How do I look?"
"Amazing," states Ginny as she loops arms with Hermione to walk down to the Great Hall together for breakfast.

Ginny and Hermione eat a light breakfast with Harry, Ron, and Neville knowing that they probably will end up eating in Hogsmeade. Ginny leaves the Golden Trio and runs off to meet with her friends for a day in the village.
Hermione asks the boys "Where are you meeting your dates?" wanting to know their plans for the day.
"George and I are meeting with our group for lunch," says Harry bitterly at the thought of spending anymore time with his school-enemy. Nobody has to ask what caused Harry's reaction as they knew that his lunch date with Daphne will also include Daphne's sister Astoria, Draco, Regina, and George.
Ron says as well ,"I am meeting Susan at the Three Broomsticks" as they agreed to meet for a drink and maybe some shopping afterwards. By doing this it will make it less weird for both of them.
Before Hermione could say anything else, Fred walks up behind the girl in question to say happily, "I am stealing you away for the day" as he takes Hermione's hand to drag her away from Harry and Ron.
With Fred pulling her away, Hermione says to them , "Have fun" knowing that it will be best to give in.

Fred and Hermione walk side by side into Hogsmeade for their official first date or second one if you counted the night before.
Fred whispers to Hermione ,"Since I took you out last night for a drink" and then says playfully in a normal voice ,"So we will go to any shop that your heart's desire" knowing that they will end up going places that he avoids at any cost,
"That's sweet," says a smiling Hermione as she leads him to Scrivenshaft's Quill Shop.

Once they were in the shop, Hermione informs him "You stay here" as she heads to section of the shop were the particular quills that she needed were located along with pieces of parchment. Minutes later, Hermione comes up to the cash register with a couple of new quills to replace the worn out ones in her trunk.
Fred asks jokingly ,"Are to next my lady?" as he takes Hermione's bag from her.
"To the bookstore of course," saying Hermione in a mocking tone as they head down the street to her favourite store: Tomes & Scrolls.

Almost two hours later they were still in Tomes & Scrolls, Fred's sitting in a chair with a pile of books that his bookworm date finds interesting. The reason behind this decision was because Fred almost fall down carrying all of these books as he follow Hermione throughout the store. Hermione ordered him to sit down and guide her books until she decides what books she wishes to purchase during this bookstore visit,
After purchasing her limit of four books per Hogsmeade visit, Hermione says smiling ,"Since you followed me around my favourite store and now its your turn" knowing that her lengthy visit to Tomes & Scrolls was boring for Fred even though he was a good sport during the entire time.
"Off to Zonko's we go," says Fred happily at the thought of spending time in George and his favourite spot in Hogsmeade.

Fred spends time showing Hermione different pranks that the shop offers. As he eventual purchases items that he was running low on such as dungbombs and even some sugar quills for Hermione and him to share.

On there way back to the castle, Fred and Hermione were talking about their dream jobs when he says to her ,"George and I want to open our own joke shop" but they just need the funds since they lost their saving due to unpaid bet.
"If you want I could check your potion calculations for your products," says Hermione smartly knowing that this could be a way for them to get closer.
Fred says happily ,"I would be honour to have the brightest witch of our age to go over our potions" knowing that it does not hurt to have a third person going over those calculations when he personally tests each new product.
They walk together to the Gryffindor common room, Fred says happily ,"We should do this again" while Hermione responds by saying ,"Anytime" and walks up to the fourth year dormitory.
