Performance

"I still don't see why we had to come here!" Ron was whining again.

Hermione rolled her eyes at her husband. "I told you. My parents took me to see Les Miserables when I was ten. It's one of the best musicals of all time!" She turned to look at Harry and Ginny, who were sitting next to her. The Potters, recently returned from their honeymoon in Egypt, were trying to make themselves comfortable in the theatre seats. Ginny was holding a large cup of Coca Cola and munching on a Mars Bar. She offered Harry a sip however he shook his head smiling.

"It can't be all that great!" Ron was saying. Hermione turned back to look at him as he continued, "I mean, if it's just singing and no actual speaking, how much story can they put in? Three hours must get a bit boring!" Now Ron looked over at Harry, "Harry, you'll back me up won't you?"

Harry didn't know what to say. He partially agreed with Ron but he didn't want to offend Hermione. Having her mad at one person was already quite enough. "Um..." he stammered.

"Harry's a bit more open minded, aren't you dear?" Ginny said with a smile. Harry nodded gratefully and she gave him a quick kiss on the cheek.

"Oi! None of that please! I know you're married but she's still my baby sister!" Ron said. Ginny poked her tongue out at him.

"Ronald!" Hermione didn't sound pleased, "It took me ages to get tickets to come here tonight! The least you can do is be respectful!"

"But I still don't see..." Ron began but Hermione shushed him as the lights began to dim and the orchestra began to play.

…

Three hours later...

"So what did you think?" Hermione asked Ginny as they stood outside the theatre.

Ginny wiped a tear from her eye. "It was beautiful Hermione. Thanks for bringing us here."

Hermione smiled, although she too was dabbing at her eyes. "Do you think the boys liked it?"

They both turned to look at Harry and Ron, who were stood leaning against each other, loudly bawling their eyes out and causing people walking past to give them funny looks.

"I think so," Ginny smiled. "Let's get the brave Aurors home. And we have to make sure they never live this down."

Hermione smiled and together they left to return to the Burrow, Harry and Ron still crying loudly all the way.

A/N This came from a line in Deathly Hallows Part 1 where Hermione mentioned being taken to a theatre on Shaftesbury Avenue when she was a child, and Les Miserables at Queen's Theatre is the longest running show there so I thought why not?

If you haven't seen Les Miserables you really should. It really is one of the best, if not the best musical in history.
