A/N: Harry Potter belongs to Rowling... and I thank her for it.

So this is chapter two of my story "I Trust You" I really do hope you like it and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that you do! :)

Reviews would be really appreciated.

Thanks Rosalie Thomas my Beta. She's helping me write better.

Hermione apparated right in front of Harry's uncle's house in Private Drive. She stood in front of the gate, her one hand on the gate and the other one on her wand, ready for an attack and gazed at the sky looking out for her signal. She pulled down her denim skirt hoping it would "magically" lengthen a bit. If it wasn't for Tonks, she would have never worn this and now looking back she had no idea how she made her dress her in a short skirt and a green shirt which co-incidentally looked the colour of Harry's eyes, as Remus had hinted before. She felt a bead of sweat sliding from her neck to her tail bone making her wriggle at the feeling as she quickly re-did her cooling spell on herself thanking god for one more reason it was convenient he had made her a witch. Shaking her head at the unwanted thoughts she saw a beam of red light shooting into the sky and fading into nothingness. To a muggle eye it would look like fireworks but she knew it was the signal she had been waiting for she quickly walked towards the house.

Crossing her fingers whishing with all her heart that 'the rescue' mission will go smooth, she took a long and much needed deep breath. Collecting her Gryffindor courage she knocked on the door and waited for someone to open the door, secretly hoping that it wasn't Harry's uncle who opens it, not at all in the mood at looking at his large, red face.

It was not long before a very bony woman with a crooked nose and long neck. Her eyes are large and pale, quite unlike Harry's mother Lily, she immediately knew she was Harry's Aunt, who had opened the door with the infamous and obscenely over weight Dudley looking over his mothers shoulder at her, the two of them in complete contradiction. He was smiling or rather leering at her and staring at her with his small beady eyes, making her shiver in disgust and made her feel uncomfortable, seeing him look at her made felt as though there were thousands of slugs crawling all over her. Disgusted she shivered and had started to feel little ill about the whole thing.

"Yes?" Petunia asked as her eyes roamed all over her with a smile on her face and waited for an answer.

"Ummm... I am a friend of Harry's from his school-!" she said as she fingered her wand and immediately saw the change in both of them, from pleasant to disgust in a matter of seconds. "- and I am here to pick him up, so if you don't mind." She pushed aside Aunt Petunia and pressed to the wall as she went in, keeping a decent distance between them and went inside ignoring their cry of shock. She sighed in relief feeling the temperature inside around her drop drastically. She looked around and knew why Harry hated here, she called out for him and within seconds she saw him coming down the stairs already dressed in jeans and a black tee which fit him quite snugly, she admitted.

"Harry, it's so good to see you." Hermione said and hugged him and saw Aunt Petunia make a face at them. Inwardly sighing in relief seeing him dressed and ready to go. "You look good." Harry whispered at her and hugged her a second longer than he normally would.

"Thanks." Hermione whispered back as her cheeks turned slightly pink and saw Dudley's eyes narrow and could almost hear the wheels in his head start to move.

Clearing her throat she took a step back, maintaining distance between the both of them. "So where are others?" Harry asked as looked all over the place, no son of the others who usually come to pick his up but only saw his aunt and cousin with their eyes narrowed.

"Harry, it's only me and I think that I am quite capable of getting you to the place quite safely." Hermione replied snapping his concentration back to her.

Harry opened his mouth to say something when Hermione's wrist watch interrupted them by beeping and she jumped in surprise. "Harry, hurry up we have to go now." She said pushing Harry towards the stairs to get his trunk and Hedwig. "But Hermione-"he started but Hermione cut him off "Not now Harry, we are on a tight schedule so fast Harry she said pointing at her watch." She turned around as Harry went up the stairs to his room and saw Aunt Petunia and Dudley staring at her with suspicious eyes. Deciding to keep quiet about it not wanting to get into a verbal fight with them she waited for Harry to come back down looking everywhere except looking at the both of them.

It wasn't long before he returned. Hermione immediately took Hedwig from him and went towards the door with Harry following her. He mumbled a small and almost inaudible "bye" to his aunt and cousin as he passed them. As soon as they were both out of the door, Hermione instantly turned around and said "Oblivate!" clearly and loudly directing the spell towards Harry's aunt and cousin. She had to pull a stunned and surprised Harry with her as she started walking to the nearest apparition point in silence.
