Hermione Granger awoke to the morning sunshine seeping in through the curtain-clad windows of her bedroom. As she stretched her muscles from their slumber a smile graced her face as she looked at her neatly packed trunk; the reminder of her return to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry for her 7th year.
She swung her legs over the end of the bed and grabbed her white fluffy dressing gown and her towel before heading to the bathroom of her farmhouse home. The thought of seeing her friends again after the long summer had her in an elated mood. She lathered her hair in her favorite vanilla shampoo and her body with her cinnamon body wash. When she had rinsed off completely she stepped out of the shower, dried herself thoroughly, tied her towel-dried hair in to a messy bun on the top of her head and dressed in her dressing gown relishing in the feel of the soft material against her skin.
As she sat at her vanity table she took time to take in her appearance and how much she had changed since the frizzy haired first year people have come to know her as. Her heart-shaped face was slender along with the rest of her body; her skin was blemish free and creamy to touch. Her eyes were almond shaped and framed with thick black lashes. The color of her eyes was undoubtedly the most breath-taking part of her appearance; the chestnut irises circled perfectly black pupils with a ring of gold on the inner iris. Her eyes easily conveyed every emotion she was feeling at that moment if someone took the time to notice, for example as she looked at herself now they sparkled with the excitement of returning to Hogwarts and seeing her friends. Further down her face sat her adorable button nose and perfect cupid bow of her lips, which finished off her face making her a stunning young woman.
She pulled her hair out of the bun and began to brush through her golden brown hair and dry if with her hairdryer. She left her hair down and dressed for the day. She dressed in her favorite dark denim skinny jeans, grey Ugg boots, a black fitted camisole and a grey off the shoulder slouch jumper before checking her appearance once more in the full-length mirror and smiled approvingly. Hermione had been taking a lot of pride in her appearance lately and hoped that a certain red head might notice her this year.
Once dressed she checked all her belonging were packed as they should be and grabbed her oversized black leather tote bag which contained her essential items such as her wand, money, books, iPod and her neatly pressed uniform with her gold ‘Head Girl’ badge pinned to them. She headed downstairs to the smell of a cooked breakfast. She laid her bag by the door along with the cage belonging to her white pygmy puff Edwin. Edwin had been a gift from Harry and Ron after her kneazle Crookshanks was slaughtered during a Death Eater raid on her parents previous home.
She gave him an affectionate stroke through the cage and went to kiss her mothers cheek who was currently fixing breakfast “Morning mum”, and then the same for her father “Morning dad”.
Her father who had been reading the paper folded it and set it on to the table and smiled warmly at her “Good morning princess, all packed and ready to go?”
“Yes dad I just need to bring my trunk downstairs and then I’m ready” she replied before eating the breakfast placed in front of her.
Once her plate was clean she washed it and left it to drain while her father went to get her trunk from her room and pack it in the car. She grabbed her bag and Edwin and settled herself in to the backseat of the car with her oversized black sunglasses shielding her eyes from the fierce summer sun; taking a last look at her home before she left they set off. As they headed towards Kings Cross station she thought about her friends and how good it would be to see them. The journey from her home was a long one, passed by with listening to her iPod and some of her favorite songs lulling her in to a daydream. Her mother interrupted her thoughts some time later.
“We are so proud of you for getting Head Girl Hermione” her mother gushed at her, “Do you think Ron or Harry will be Head Boy?”
She looked at her mother and smiled a sad smile “No mum, I don’t think so, Ron and Harry don’t have the grades and I think they’re probably a bit too mischevious”, realizing she wouldn’t be sharing her status with her friends suddenly hit her and she made a promise to herself then that she would not let her duties come in between them.
“Oh I hope it isn’t someone who’s going to take advantage and leave you to do all the work.”
“Me too mum but Professor McGonagall didn’t mention the Head Boy in my letter, she just said that we had been chosen by Professor Dumbledore before his death and after hearing his reasoning she kept the decision.”
“Well as long as it’s not that awful Malfoy boy I’m sure you’ll get on fine with them” and with that she smiled at her again and turned to have a conversation with her husband leaving Hermione once again to her thoughts. She agreed with her mother in the hope that it wasn’t the stuck up Prince of Slytherin Draco Malfoy and she couldn’t help but feel the dread pool in her.
She had nodded off in the back of the car, snuggled in to Edwin and listening to her iPod, her father had loaded her trolley at the station and shook her gently awake “We’re here honey, time to go”
Hermione grabbed her bag, ushered Edwin back in to his cage and got out of the car. She said her goodbyes to her parents at the entrance to the station as always and was glad for the sunglasses covering her teary eyes.
“We’ll miss you honey, make sure you write to us, Molly said that we can use Pig to get in touch” her mother pulled her in to a huge hug.
“I will mum, I’m going to miss you too, I’ll maybe see you at Christmas okay?”
Her mother nodded and as the tears from her baby leaving again took over, released her from the hug before she was pulled in to another by her father
“I’ll miss you sweetheart, be good and remember we’ll always be proud of you”
With his parting words, he kissed the top of her head and pulled back to look at the grown woman his daughter had become. She waved goodbye once more and left her parents as she wheeled the trolley to Platform 9 and 10. She looked at the wall in between the signs and moved through the barrier. As she emerged from the other side she was greeted by the warm steam from the bright red Hogwarts Express and the familiar whistle. She quickly scanned the crowds looking for signs of her two best friends. The familiar pool of red hair was found at the other end of the platform and she headed towards them with a smile. As she approached the first to notice her was Ginny, the youngest of the Weasley family and also her favorite of the Gryffindor girls; the two had become close as Hermione was the only girl she trusted her secrets with and in return she know she could tell Ginny anything. The young girl threw herself at Hermione in a hug as tears filled her eyes as she finally saw her best friend. Everyone had noticed Hermione’s absence at The Burrow that summer and it was good to have her back. She pulled away and beamed at Hermione showing her happiness very clearly.
The next to embrace her was Molly Weasley. Molly treated Hermione and Harry as her own children and loved them just as much. She pulled away from Hermione and checked her over to ensure she’d been sleeping and eating which she knew the girl sometimes skipped in favor of studying.
“Hello Mrs Weasley, have you had a good Summer?” Hermione said while blushing under the older woman’s scrutinizing gaze.
“Hello dear, yes it has been eventful as always with this lot” she said with a smile, indicating to the group of children stood behind her “Never a dull moment, how was yours dear? We all missed you at The Burrow”
“It was nice seeing my parents again but I did miss you guys a lot, I think my parents are just feeling a little overprotective now they know about the war”
“Yes that’s understandable but you’re always safe with us, maybe you can come to us for Christmas?” Mrs Weasley replied in an eager tone, all too hopeful of having a Christmas once again surrounded by her children.
“That would be nice Mrs Weasley, I think my parents are at a dental conference in Australia over Christmas Break so I think it should be okay”
“Very good, I’ll send them an owl later on today and let them know, you best hurry and see the others before the train leaves”
“Thanks Mrs Weasley” with that she kissed her on the cheek like she would her own mother and moved off in to the sea of red hair awaiting her.
Once she approached the group she was dragged in to bone-crushing hugs by Fred, George, Bill, Charlie and Arthur and asked about her summer. When she finally pulled away from the crowd after greeting each one she turned to face the two people she’d been dying so see all summer. Harry and Ron both stood waiting to greet her, knowing it would be pointless trying to pull her away from the other Weasley men. She ran towards Harry as he moved towards her, grabbing her around the waist and spinning her around.
“It’s good to finally see you Mione, writing you just isn’t the same!” he said to her as he placed her gently back on her feet “Next time me and Ron will be beating your parents door down if we have to!!”
Hermione giggled at that thought “I missed you guys to but at least we’re heading back to Hogwarts now and we can see each other all the time again”
Harry leaned against the wall smiling as he watched her move to Ron. He had a feeling, like everyone else that Ron and Hermione were supposed to be together. He couldn’t help but feel jealous as he saw Hermione’s face light up when she looked at Ron and he felt the other two members of the Golden Trio were slipping away from him. As he stood there watching his best friends, a red head appeared pushing under his arms to lean against him. He smiled down at his girlfriend and kissed the top of Ginny’s head as he felt the jealousy he was feeling began to melt away.
Hermione embraced Ron tightly and pecked him on the cheek as a small blush appeared on his cheeks.
“Oh I missed you guys so so much this summer!! I wish I’d been with you” she said to Ron with a bright smile on her face.
Before Ron could reply the whistle went off indicating the train was about to leave the station. Ron and Harry grabbed Hermione’s things and took them on board to place with their own. Hermione followed with Edwin and took a seat in the compartment next to Ron. Ginny joined them and began to tell Hermione all about her summer as well as her and Harry’s blossoming relationship as the boys played a game of Wizards Chess. As she chatted away she kept her eye on the boys and smiled happy she was back with them.
“So have you guys done the homework we were set for Summer?” she asked in a knowing tone “It’s due in tomorrow you know”
Both boys kept their eyes firmly on the game and did not dare meet the Head Girls gaze.
“Erm…well we just have a few finishing touches to add to them don’t we Harry?” Ron said while nudging Harry in the side encouraging him to play along.
“Yeah Mione, we’re nearly all done with it really”
Hermione quirked an eyebrow at the two knowing the real answers to her question already.
“You haven’t done it at all have you?!” she said in a chastising tone.
Neither Ron nor Harry dared to answer her so she huffed and checked her watch for the time. Her watch indicated that they were nearly half way to Hogwarts so she grabbed her bag and headed to the door of the compartment.
“Maybe now would be a good time to start it, don’t you think?” she said to them in a tone, which usually left no room for arguments.
“We may as well leave it til we get there now, you could come and help us with it after the feast” Ron said with a smile knowing she would always help them. He didn’t however expect the reaction he got.
“Ronald Weasley!! I will not do you homework for you! Especially if you two can’t be bothered to help yourselves!!” she shouted as she glared at the two.
“But Mione we need your help, you know we do” Harry chipped in.
“Well tough luck because this time you two are on your own!” she said angrily “Ron, Ginny, I will see you in a hour in the Head carriage for the prefect meeting, be dressed in uniform and robes by then”
“Where are you going Mione?” Ron whined at her.
“I’m going to the Head compartment to meet the Head Boy” and with that she slammed the compartment door and left the sulky teenagers to themselves.
