Chapter Four!
It was Rayna. At first, she thought Rayna was alone, but then she noticed she kept bending down to talk to someone. Hermione could not see who it was because of the strong gust of snow but she could make out a tall, skinny figure. Then, she noticed a something bright and realized it was coming from the person bending over. Hermione took a breath and narrowed her eyes. It was......................
............Ron.
Hermione glared at him and watched as Rayna and Ron *ooh, R&R, always the same letters... S&S (Hermione Girl88 and Krystal_Faerie should know what S&S is..), H&H (LOLZ), etc.*
(as Rayna and Ron..) played around in the snow and jumped up and down, having the time of their lives.
The next morning, Hermione woke up bright and early and started opening her presents. She had a big pile of gifts and grabbed the nearest one. It was a gift from her parents. They had gotten her some sugar-free foods and a brand new sparkling broomstick, the Greatone 2002. (It was a new one)
Harry had gotten her a packet for doing magical crafts of all kinds and Ron had given her a book about Fantastic Creatures and wonderful foods. Mrs. Weasley had gotten soft, sweet strawberry icecream ("that never melts" -Ron) cake and some homemade toffees. Krum had gotten a box full of sport souvenirs such as Quidditch robes and miniature figures.
"Wow.. thanks everyone." she said softly.
Just as she was getting up to leave, a small owl softly swooped past and dropped something through her window.
Hermione walked towards it and picked it up. As soon as she finished reading, her eyes widened and she dropped the box on the floor and backed away from it........
Meanwhile at the boy's dorm, Harry had just woken up and woke up Ron as well. Ron seemed tired but got up to open presents. Hermione had gotten Ron some new quills and decorative parchment. She got Harry a big book about prefects and responsibility and a box of delicious butterscotch balls. Harry also recieved a piece of white cloth from the Dursleys. He got a nice, cute, dog stuffed animal from Ginny and a stuffed bear from Ron. He also got a pretty box with wooden, carved quills inside from Sirius. Mrs. Weasley had gotten Harry the same thing as Hermione except with an extra sweater with snitch patterns. Dobby had gotten him some candy as well.
Ron had gotten a sweater and also cake. As he finished putting the dress robes from Harry, away, an owl swooped by and dropped a box identical to Hermione's.
Ron went to pick it up. He read it and slowly said,
"Hmm.. here, Harry, it's for you..."
"Me?!"
"Yes."
Harry took the box from Ron and flipped it over. He read it and instead of backing away like Hermione, he narrowed his eyes at it and shook it lightly.
Then, they heard a scream from Hermione........................
