I have already written one Fan Fiction story, but since I lost the last couple of chapters and I can't remember the hell what it said. It was a Draco/Hermione story, so this time I've decided to try a different person with Hermione. I'm not sure how long it'll be and hopefully my computer will decide NOT to delete it this time stares angrily at computer but I hope you enjoy it and I am so so sorry about the other story. If I ever remember what it said I swear I will rewrite it, but for now, here is the story that I have been working out in my head for so long so that it is understandable!
Disclaimer: Unfortunately, I don't own Harry Potter and any of it's characters and much to my…displeasure…never will. I assure you though, the plot is entirely my own.
You need to imagine that Dumbledore didn't die because Snape didn't kill him and Snape still works at Hogwarts as Potions teacher. Malfoy however left and is now at Voldemorts mercy because he didn't kill Dumbleodre like he was meant to.
Anyway…enough of that…here is the story…
------------------------------------------------------
Chapter One – Summer with the Dursleys
Harry sat in his room finishing off the letter he was writing to Hermione.
The Dursleys said you could stay, providing you weren't as weird as I am. So, just act Muggle, OK? You'll get used to it eventually, besides, it's only two days, then Mr Weasley is coming to pick us up and we'll stay at Ron's house until we need to go back to school. Dumbledore said it was fine for you to come too.
Harry
P.s Say hi to your parents for me!
Harry re-read the letter and smiled. Hermione was coming to stay with him at the Dursleys. It was so unexpected that he didn't know whether to be happy or feel sorry for her. Hedwig jumped around happily as Harry stood up with the letter.
"Give this to Hermione for me" he said, attaching to her leg. She squawked and flew out the window.
------------------------------------------------------
Hermione would be here in 20 minutes. The Dursleys were paying Harry no attention, which of course, didn't surprise him. They had been too frightened to say no to him. None of them actually knew his 'murdering' godfather was dead and they were so scared he'd walk in the door and kill them all that they had agreed to let Hermione stay. Uncle Vernon, however had banished them from the kitchen, so they would have to eat in Harry's room. The doorbell rang.
"I'll get it!" Harry shouted, running to the door. He opened it to find a smiling Hermione with her trunk and Crookshanks.
"I'll get your trunk" Harry offered, grabbing the handle. "Follow me." He led her up to his bedroom and laid her trunk in front of his own.
"Are you sure your uncle and aunt don't mind?" she asked.
"I didn't really leave them much choice. They're too afraid that someone will turn up on their doorstep and hex them if they say no." Hermione giggled.
"Are you hungry?" Harry asked.
"I'm starving"
"Sandwich?"
"Yes please" Hermione said, delighted. Crookshanks curled up on Harry's bed and fell asleep. Harry led Hermione downstairs and into the kitchen. Despite the fact that none of the Dursleys wanted Hermione here (or Harry for that matter) they made an attempt at least to be nice.
"So this is your friend from H-school" Aunt Petunia said, nearly mentioning the name of their school.
"Hermione, this is my Aunt Petunia. This is Hermione." Petunia forced the smile to stay on her face as she shook Hermione's hand.
"Glad to have you dear."
Of course you are, Harry thought. "What do you want in your sandwich?" Harry asked Hermione.
"I don't mind." Harry made two ham sandwich's and they sat down on the sofa and switched on the TV.
------------------------------------------------------
Harry set up a mattress and some covers on the floor.
"Do you want the bed?" he asked as Hermione came back from the bathroom.
"Err…sure" Harry grabbed a pillow and laid down on the mattress.
Bang!
"What the…?" Harry and Hermione turned round. Pig was bashing against the window, furiously. Harry opened the window and grabbed him.
"Shut up you stupid bird" he said, taking the letter. It was obviously from Ron. Harry sat on the mattress and Hermione joined him.
Hi Harry, Hi Hermione,
I'm so annoyed that I couldn't come. Dad didn't think it would be a good idea for me to go after he destroyed half their living room.
Harry laughed.
Mum says that she can't wait until you two get here. We were going to stay at Gimmauld Place, but we didn't want to ruin the Holidays. Dumbledore is here putting god knows how many spells around the house to protect it. Anyway, I hope I didn't wake you up or anything, it's so unfair that you two get two more days with each other and I'm stuck here with Dumb, Dummber and Ginny! Bill has decided to come home to say hello to you and all that. Can't wait till you're both here. I'm so bored.
From Ron
P.s Sorry if Pig woke anyone up or anything.
"Think I should send one back?" Harry asked, standing up and putting the letter on his desk.
"Wait til the morning, it'll probably be the middle of the night that Pig gets back anyway"
"Good point." Hedwig seemed to be outraged with the fact tat she would be shared her food and water with Pig for a whole night. Crookshanks was curled up at the end of Harry's bed now and Hermione was asleep. Harry looked at her.
She's so beautiful, Harry thought. No, wait. I can't be falling for Hermione, she's my best friend. And with that thought on his mind, he closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.
