~*~Hermione's POV~*~

"Hermione, It's time to get up! You need to go to the Weasley's so they can take you to Diagon Alley for your new school supplies." A voice said shaking me awake. It took me a few seconds but I realized it was my mom, Jean Granger.

Groan"Okay Mum I'm up…" I said rubbing my eyes with the balls of my hands.

"Hurry, I already let you sleep in longer than I planned."

"Well that's not my fault is it?" I said moodily. Mom looked at me with disapproval. "Sorry, you know how I am when I'm woken up…" I added shooting her an apologetic smile. I sighed mentally when her features softened.

"Fine, but seriously, hurry!" She said making a gesture and walking hurriedly from the room.

I did as she said and went to my drawers to pick what to wear. I always get nervous when going to the Weasley's, Ron is there and he might not like my muggle clothes, am I being too anxious? I chewed on my lip while staring at my opened drawer, it was then that I heard a tapping on my window. I turn around to see Pig with a note tied to his leg. I hurry over to the window and he jumps on my outstretched arm. I take the note from him, placing him on my desk to free my hand. I open the note and immediately I notice the signature. 'Love, Ron' Written sloppily in cursive at the bottom of the page. I look back up to read the rest of the note, already smiling.

Dear 'Mione,

I can't wait to see you!

Everyone here misses you a whole lot.

I know this letter is early but I woke up at 4:00am and couldn't get back to sleep from excitement.

I hope your excited too and that I'm not being creepy.

Can't wait!

Love,

Ron.

I smiled, I know Ron would never think of me in a romantic way, I'm not pretty like Lavender Brown. But it's nice to think as though he did. I lay the note down and start to get dressed.

I slip on the closest thing I have to wizard clothes, which is a Gryffindor emblem tank top and some black leggings. I try to make my hair as presentable as possible but it wasn't cooperating, I eventually just gave up. I brushed my teeth, said goodbye to my mom, and apparated to Hogsmede for a quick butterbeer before heading to the Weasley's. I wasn't due there for 45 minutes after all.

I look around at the Hogsmede scenery that I haven't seen all summer. I took in a deep breath and filled my lungs with it's rich smell. I had always loved the smell of Hogsmede. After I focused on what the signs read around me I noticed the one reading 'The Three Broomsticks' and walk towards it.

Before I can put together a full though I hear a loud noise next to me, I turn my head, not even reaching a full turn when;

*-*BOOM*-*

Darkness.
