A/N: I'm still so mad about Wattpad deleting my chapter...so I'm so sorry this may be short😭

Harry's Pov:

"C'mon, Harry, Hermione!" Ron called. Hermione laughed as she threw a sock in my face. "Did you just go there?" I laughed and ran over to her. I started to tickle her, "No mercy!" She laughed and fell off the bed. She thudded on the floor. "Oh, are you okay?" She sniffled and looked up from her hands. "Fool," she climbed on top of me and started tickling me without any mercy. "Hermione....we've...got to go!" She laughs and jumps off of me. "Okay." She finished getting changed and put on her shoes. "How do I look?" I rolled my eyes, "Not answering that question, let's go." She laughed and jumped on my back. I went with it and carried her to the living room, where a bunch of things were going on at the same time.

George looked guilty, but not. Luna yelled, "George, I was making tea!" He laughed and took out his wand, making a smiley face out of the shards of glass mug on the floor. Hermione and Ginny were giggling at the fact Ron's hair turned a bit yellow, Neville was trying to clean up the tea, and I was dying of laughter. "Everyone! Order in the court! Voldemort!" Everyone shut up. "Thank you. Now, let's get out of here." Everyone packed up their things and made their way out of the rented apartment. "Ooh! Let's go to the Hershey factory first!" Everyone groaned. "Fine," I chuckled and punched Ginny in the shoulder. "Little Miss five-year-old." She pouts and looks at me, "C'mon, I've never been!" She runs up to George and I sigh, finding Hermione and wrapping my arm around her shoulder. "I've never been, either. How is it?" She looks at me, her eyes suddenly sparkling. "You'll like it, trust me."

We walked the streets for a while until we finally reached the factory. It wasn't honestly a factory, just a chocolate shop. It was huge, and full of chocolate, nothing else. We all ran in, struggling as we realized not everyone could fit through the door at once. "Not a very good idea!" Hermione groaned from beside me. Everybody pushed themselves out. Ron suddenly yells, "Single file!" making everyone laugh, and we all walked in the store in an orderly fashion. "Woah..." I walked in and immediately saw stuffed animals shaped to look like chocolate, chocolate bars, cocoa mix, melted chocolate machines, and Hershey's drops. I pretty much gathered everything I could find, and we all ended up paying....£500....or in the U.S. 500 dollars. That's...a lot of money, I think.

We all walked out of the store talking about what we bought. Hermione pointed out the Starbucks in the corner of the street, so we decided to stop there. As soon as we stepped in, I don't feel familiar with the scent of strong coffee and sugary smell, and it was good. I felt warmer in her and took a seat beside Hermione. She kissed my cheek and whispers, "I'll show you all my Hershey Kisses later...." (So awkward omf😂😖) I smirk and cringe, "You're so cheesy." She laughs and shoves me, "Trying to be romantic here!" Points at herself. I laugh at her ability to still be a huge dork. "Erm....Hermione, what are we supposed to be doing here?" She laughed and explained to all of us, "This place is so so popular in the Muggle world, mostly in the U.S. Now, they order specific coffees here, you need to have your name written on it, and post it on a social media, or you're not white trash." Ron nodded. "I'm going to order random drinks and give them all to you guys, judge them."

She came back with a couple of drinks minutes later. Mine was hot, unlike George's which was iced. Ron had a warm drink, and Hermione kept loading them in. I saw an opening in the top, decided I should probably drink for my there, and took a sip the same time as Ron. I liked it, but I didn't see the big deal. I looked over at Ron, who recoiled. "What the bloody hell are you making these people drink, rat poison?!" He makes a face; I see a few people look at him, and, what I think Hermione described as 'white trash' gave Ron a disgusted face and talked, very loudly, may I say, about him.
"Oh my god Jenny, what a bitch!"
"Tiffany, who the heck can not like Starbucks?"
"I am so telling all my Twitter followers about this."
"He doesn't even have a stupid ass name on his so he could post it on social media."

I laughed a but and kept drinking mine. Ginny looked like she liked hers, Luna looked disgusted, but charmed, George loved it, and Neville was conflicted. Hermione came back with hers and smiled, "How are they?" Everyone either nodded or shouted "Disgusting!" I liked mine, so I kept drinking it. She sat next to me, "Drank this every day before work." I nodded, "Really?" And laughed. "It's good! I guess they just aren't used to it..." She smirked. "George, you look like you liked it." He had finished it all. "Let's come back her in two hours." We all laughed and finished up.

"Where to next?" Hermione asks and looks down at her map. "Times Square?" Ginny suggests quietly and I nod, "Yeah." Everyone nods and agrees. "Let's go!" George shouts as we all start to run behind him. All "woah's" came out of everybody's mouth as we made it into Times Square. "This is...." Hermione kissed me. "This is amazing, I know." She looks at our surroundings. "Ugh, you know I love when your eyes brighten like that!" I laugh and cover the musty my hand as she stumbles back and laughs.

We walk around, only looking at the Billboards. "George was pointing things out to Ginny, Ron looked bored after a while, Luna told Neville all about how Nargles are different in the Muggle world, and Hermione was telling me the history of New York City. "....and it really is fascinating, you know." She sighs and puts her head on my shoulder. "We should head back soon!" George calls back to us. I look at Hermione and check my watch, "Yeah, it's almost six. We want to be back by morning, and since we can't get a flight, we're going to have to drive."
(Ooh fun Roadtrip next chapter😂👏)

We head to this old pizza restaurant, where a lot of people are eating. We got in almost immediately, and sat down. Ron tried to enjoy Muggle food, but just couldn't do it. He ordered one slice of pizza, telling the waitress that he'd like it "extra good." I laughed hysterically at this, seeing his much he hates Muggle culture. Hermione ordered pizza with pineapples on top. I recoiled, "You actually like that?" She laughed and nodded, "Yeah, I find it good because the pineapple is sweet, you don't," She laughs, "I'm so going to shove it in your face when it comes." I swayed my head furiously, "Yuck!" I laugh and elbow her. She looks at me in fake hurt, "Bad Harry!"

The rest of the table ordered pepperoni pizza, so I just went with it. See, we got the pizza, and ate bit, but we were thrown out for being too 'annoying.' It was basically George and Ginny throwing spitballs at people next to us, me and Hermione trying to get pizza in each other's faces, Neville and Luna talking about Nargles, and Ron complaining to the Waitress that the pizza wasn't what he ordered. "I can't believe Ron got us kicked out." I laughed as he came up behind me and flicked the back of my head. "That waitress was totally checking you out, George." George looked at him weirdly, "Oops, I'm married." I came to a realization. I completely forgot George got married to Angelina last year. I remember the wedding like it was yesterday.

We made it back to the apartment, and Ron went to go check us out. I packed quickly, realizing I didn't bring much, and ran to Hermione's room. She was sitting on her bed, wiping her eyes. "W-What's wrong?" I asked and sat next to her. "Don't get me wrong, today was fun, but I keep thinking about...." She didn't need to finish, she meant earlier. I looked down at my feet and glared, "I'm so sorry, I shouldn't have brought it up." She looked at me and swayed her head. "But I should tell you." I look at her tear-stained face. "You already did." "No, I didn't say everything," she doesn't look up. "You don't need to," I wipe her eyes. She hesitantly wraps her arms around me, and I do it back. We had a lot of work to do, but I liked this for now.

When we were all done packing, Hermione went to wash her face, while Ginny and Luna put on makeup. We all finished and said goodbye to the apartment. "I am damn sure I won't miss this place," Ron smirked. I rolled my eyes, "Me neither." I wrapped my arm around Hermione. "The muggle world sucks, it's....so messed up." Ron sighed and looked at George's stolen car. We put all our luggages in. I thought about what Ron had said, it took me a while to process it, but in the end, he was right. It was the most messed up thing I've ever seen. We were on to something. "Ron, you're right." He nodded. I thought about that for a long time. Hermione eventually fell asleep on my lap.

We needed work.....just like everything does. Maybe we....secretly all need work.
