Chapter 1:

Hermione's POV:

I was in a muggle library looking for a good book to read, preferably a series so it will take longer to read when I came across a 5 book series called Percy Jackson. I decided to grab them, since the library was closing soon.

I walked outside and apparated to the Burrow, where I was met by Hagrid.

" 'Ello Hermione!" Hagrid said, pleasantly.

"Hello Hagrid!" I responded cheerily. All of a sudden, Ron came running out of the house.

"Hermione!" He yelled, running toward me and enveloping me in a hug.

"Ronald!" I exclaimed, laughing. "It's good to see you too."

"Hagrid." Ron said, shaking Hagrid's hand, or rather, having Hagrid shake his arm.

" 'Ello there Ron! How's Charlie been?" Hagrid asked.

"Fine." said Ron.

"Let's go inside, shall we?" Ron asked as Hagrid and I followed him in. When I walked inside, the first thing I did was visit the kitchen where I was almost certain to find Mrs. Weasly.

"Mrs. Weasly!" I exclaimed, excitedly.

"Oh, Hermione, dear!" Mrs. Weasly said, "I saw your trunks this morning but I wasn't sure when you would be arriving! I'm sure Ron's very excited your here dear."

Ron blushed beat red, "Mum!"

I chuckled, "As was I Mrs. Weasly."

All of a sudden, Harry, Ginny and George came thundering down the stairs.

"Hermione." Harry breathed.

"Hermione's back. Hermione's back. Hermione's back." Ginny and George chanted, but stopped abruptly, when they remembered doing a similar thing when Harry got off trial from preforming the expecto patronum charm, only that time, it was with Fred.

Ron seemed to have felt the tension as well.

He awkwardly cleared his throat and asked, "So, mum, what's for dinner?"

Harry chuckled dryly, "You still haven't changed have you Ron?"

"Ginny - " Hermione started to say but was cut off by Hagrid saying loudly, "Well, Molly, I best be off. I only came to say hello. I've got important business elsewhere."

"Alright Hagrid. We'll be seeing you soon I trust?" Mrs. Weasly inquired.

"We'll see, Molly, we'll see." Hagrid muttered.

"See ya, Hagrid," Everyone muttered and with that, Hagrid turned around and disappeared through the Weasly's door.

"Come on guys." I said to Harry, Ron, Ginny and George, "Let's go upstairs." Everyone, excluding Mrs. Weasly, turned around and made their way up to Harry and Ron's room.

You see, after the Batlle of Hogwarts, as everyone was calling it (it was either that or the Final Battle), Harry had no home because the Dursely's had been relocated and Harry had no wish to go through the trouble of tracking them down and living with them, so the Weasly's offered to take him in. He's been living with them ever since.

On the way up to Ron and Harry's room, I dropped off 4 of the 5 books that I had gotten from the library - I kept the first one Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief.

As I listened to Harry, Ron, and George ramble aimlessly about Quidditch and watched Ginny play with Ron's owl, Pig, I decided to start reading my book.
