One her way home she stopped by gringotts to hand in the transfer slips for her new found fortune. As she walked down diagon alley she saw a rather large crowd of photographers around her and ron's old favourite coffee shop knowing he was probably there with that hag of a girl she caught him in bed with, Hermione scowled and rolled her eyes as she tuned the other way.
Not knowing exactly where she was going, Hermione found her self at the doors of her private chalet in the Italian Alps. She settled in realizing she had very few belongings with her and then decided she'd ask Ginny to bring them later. After such a stressful day Hermione had a fire crackling and a stew cooking, she was wearing her comfiest sweats and a warm blanket while cozying on the couch. Her thoughts traveled to her old school days at hogwarts and the constant battle against Voldemort. She relived all the emotions and hardships every night over and over again... for 4 years but there were also many good memories, laughs and triumphs with her two best friends.
If it weren't for the sounds of a crash at her window she would have never seen the big black owl that flew into her newly cleaned windows. She recognized the owl as Harry and Ginny's owl, willow. She hurried over to help the owl into her foyer, it held a letter sealed with the potter family crest, immediatly confirming her suspicions on who sent the letter. She opened it slowly not sure of what her friend would say.
Hermione,
You and I both know I'll be coming to Italy to bring you your stuff so I figured I'd make a girls trip of it. I'm bringing out Luna, Cho, Pansy, Astoria and Daphne greengrass and fleur.. not my idea, Mum's making me bring her. But expect us in 2 days and i hope you have something (or some one) to keep you busy till then because I hear mountains are quite boring. Harry is good, but on a busy schedule at the moment so I'm a little lonely right now, that's the price I pay for marrying an auror.
Anyways, Keep yourself happy, healthy and haling!
With love, ginny
PS, please come to brunch next week, Ron has been banned so no worries there, mum insists
She set the letter down with a smile on her face and for the first time in weeks she was looking forward to seeing people, especially old school friends not power crazed lawyers. She then found some parchment and a quill and began to write Ginny back.
Ginny,
I'm glad to hear you are still inviting yourself places but of course i will have you and the girls over. I'm not worried so much about fleur as I am Daphne and Astoria... I'm a little curious as to why you invited them? I'm not saying you should uninvite them at all I just never Sreally knew them and i was unaware that you knew them.
I'm afraid there are no some ones to keep my self busy with (as you know the first thing I would do here is go looking, Ha!) I dont think I need anyone quite yet, just worry about me and my healing heart.
I'm happy to hear you and harry are happy. I'm just saying be very grateful you have him.
Love always Hermione
PS, of course I'll attend brunch next Sunday, I will be in the area anyways buying some groceries and you know I love your mother's cooking. And as far as Ron, he is dead to me now ( no offense)
She tied the scroll securely on the owls leg and sent it off. after watching it fly out of sight she noticed a small lit cabin not far from her chalet.
"Must be new.." she said out loud to her self. She decided to put on a sweater and pair of boots and grabbed a bottle of champagne and left to meet her neighbor.
I know this chapter isnt much longer but it's a long awaited update right... ? :)
