It's been a few weeks and I took Dumbledores advice and decided to enjoy the rest of my school year with my friends. School is over now and I've decided to do the same thing I did last summer, the first half at the burrow and the second half at the manor. The burrow is as cosy as ever and Molly Weasley welcomed me back with open arms. So far we've been playing quidditch a lot and stuffing our faces with Mrs. Weasleys gorgeous food. Today we have decided to go to Hogsmeade.

"Wake up Ron", Harry yawns at Hermoine.
"Ugh. Do I have to?", she responds.
I throw a pillow from my bed at him and he wakes up alarmed
"Morning", I grin.
"Why do you always have to wake me up like that", he rubs his eyes.
"Because otherwise you'd sleep all day", I respond.
"Very true", Harry says.
I glance over at Hermione who is packing her bag already.
"What are you doing?", Ron asks.
"Preparing for the day.", she says matter of factly.
"What are you even packing? We're going to hogsmeade not the Quidditch World Cup.", Ron jokes and Harry laughs.
Hermione rolls her eyes, "You're so funny Ronald. You should be thanking me. I'm not packing all this stuff just for me you know", she sighs.
"Im sorry Hermione, you're so amazing, I shall never doubt you again", he says jokingly.
Hermione blushes and continues packing aggressively.
"I'm hungry", I say.
"Me too", Harry agreed.
"Breakfast?", I ask.
"I need to finish this first but then I'll be down", Hermione says.
"You guys go down, I'll help Hermione finish packing her bag", Ron clears his throat awkwardly.
"What?", Harry says shocked.
"Just not hungry yet mate", Ron blinks profusely.
"Not hungry? Are you joking?", I elbow Harry.
"OW!", he shouts.
"See you guys soon", I smile and drag Harry out of the bedroom and down the stairs.

"What was that for?", he asks.
"You're so stupid sometimes Harry."
"How so?", he grins.
"Ron clearly likes Hermione", I laugh at his naivety.
"What? No, no, not a chance. Ron and Hermoine..", he stops.
"Wow, Ron and Hermione", he looks at me in realisation.
"Yep", I say triumphantly.
"He would've told me", Harry insists.
"He probably hasn't even admitted it to himself yet", I say.
"Hm. I bet you five galleons he doesn't like her", Harry says.
"Fine. I look forward to receiving my riches", I grin.

We sit down for breakfast and Molly greets us, speedily placing two steaming hot plates of food in front of us.
"Morning dearies. Where's Ron and Hermione?", She asks.
I glance at Harry who's smirking down at his plate.
"They won't be long. The food looks amazing Molly", I say.
"Tastes brilliant too", Harry says his mouth already full of food.
Mrs. Weasley chuckles and walks off.

Harry looks around anxiously, "Wheres Ginny?".
I giggle, "I'm sure she'll be here soon".
"What's so funny?", he asks.
"You!".
"Me?!".
"Where's Ginny?", I mock him.
"That's just a normal question!", he says in defence.
"Sure, sure. God you're all besotted with each other", I say.
"Says you. Bet you're missing Malfoy an awful lot these days.", he grins.
"I don't know what you're talking about.", I say defiantly.
"Ya, ya", he rolls his eyes.
Ron and Hermione come down the stairs laughing at something.
"Nice of you to finally join us", Harry says.
"Sorry, we got distracted", Hermione says.
"What did we miss?", Ron asks.
"(Y/N) pining over Malfoy", Harry jokes.
"I was not!".
"It's alright (Y/N), you don't need to be embarrassed", Ron says.
"Embarrassed!".
"Well, we're all getting older now, its no surprise we're going to start to have crushes and stuff. No need to be shy about it", he says innocently.
"RON!", I shout as Harry bursts into a fit of laughter.
"Oh yeah? So who are you pining over then Ron?", Hermione says laughing.
"Me? Pining? No. Never. I don't know what you mean.", Ron says suddenly flustered.
"YOU", I mouth to Hermione who looks at me startled.
"Can we all stop talking about all this lovey dovey stuff. It's making me lose my appetite", Harry says.
I roll my eyes, "okay father Harry".

The first thing we do once we reach Hogsmeade is go to Honeydukes. Ron insisted that we needed to stock up on sweets for the rest of the holidays and nobody objected.
We filled our hands with as many, chocolate frogs, fudge flies and exploding bon bons that we could carry.
"We probably should've done our shopping last", Hermione says looking down at all the bags were now carrying.
"I hate to say it but Hermione's right", Ron sighs dramatically.
"Come on, well go to the pub", Harry says grabbing some bags off me.
"Thanks", I say.

We sit down at one of the tables at the back, dumping our bags to the side.
"What do we all want?", Harry asks.
"Butterbeer", we say in unison.
"Butterbeer is it then".
Harry walks off to order and we wait for him.
I look around the pub, spotting a few people I know from school.
I see Neville Longbottom sitting with his grandma and I wave at him.
Harry comes back with the drinks on a tray.
"Thanks Harry", I smile.
As we sip our drinks, laughing and talking I notice the door open for the first time in a while. Through it comes Draco and Blaise.
"Oh my..", I get up and hug them both.
"What are you doing here?", Blaise asks.
"Just wanted some Butterbeer and stuff", I stutter.
"It's great to see you (Y/N)", Draco smiles.
"You too", I grin.
"What are they laughing at?", Blaise asks pointing behind me. I turn to see the trio making fun of me and Draco, making love hearts with their wands. "Oh nothing", I blush.
"I guess we'll see you later then", Draco says sadly.
"I'll see you soon", I begin to walk away.

"Wait", I say abruptly.
"Yes?".
"You could come over to my table. I'm sure they wouldn't mind", I say hesitantly.
"I don't think that's a good idea", Draco says.
"Come on. They won't say anything, I promise", I plead.

He sighs. "Just for a minute", Draco says.
"WHAT?", Blaise shouts and Draco elbows him.
"But only a minute (Y/N)".
"Just a minute is fine", I smile and lead them over to my table.
This should be interesting.
