Returning Home
Hermione breathed deeply and knocked on the door of her parents' house and converted surgery. Severus and Charlotte were just behind her, crossing the street.
Thankfully, Hermione's father answered the door. "Hermione!" He enveloped her in a hug and pulled her in the door.
"Dad." Hermione was surprised to note how much she had missed him.
"Go on through, your mother's in the kitchen. Don't worry- she knows you're coming. I just need to tidy up."
Hermione did as he suggested, hoping to break the news to her mother before Severus came in and was attacked with a rolling pin.
Well, it's back to school for me tomorrow. Another summer come and gone and this story STILL isn't finished! What must you all think of me? Heh. Well, there's trouble brewing soon-ish and of course, here come the parents so stick with me! And thanks for all your comments.
