Hermione, Harry, Ron, and Lavender were all eating breakfast in the Great Hall that early morning in April. There had been some talk about a new student and further information would be released that morning.
"Good morning to you all!" Spoke Professor Dumbledore. "As you heard we are expecting a new student here at Hogwarts. "She…" As Dumbledore said that all boys perked their head up. "She will be arriving this morning and will be joining you during your classes. She's a 6th year and will be sorted when she arrives. Your best behavior with her and be kind. Thank you and enjoy your meals!"
"I wonder if she's hott." Said Seamus receiving glares from the girls at the Gryffindor table. But not from every girl. Ginny was staring at Seamus and let out a deep sigh. Lavender looked at Ginny and then at Seamus and saw the two smiling at each other. 'Is something going on?' She thought to herself.
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Potions were going rather slowly that morning, but then again when were potions ever not a complete snooze fest?
Lavender was balancing her pencil on her nose. Ron was asleep on his book; Harry was playing thumb war with Seamus as Dean gave Parvati a massage. Hermione was the only one paying a limit of attention, with the Slytherins ofcourse. They were all supposed to be writing notes about the potion that was infront of them and analyzing it. Yeh right.
Snape rose from his desk to go open the door to an averaged height girl with long black hair and intense blue eyes. Jaws from every boy in the room were dropping. Ron even woke up to look at the beautiful girl.
"Class. I would like to present to you your new classmate, Maria. She has been sorted into Gryffindor house and shall be respected by all of you. Any nonsense and you'll be serving detention after school with me." Spat Snape as he walked his way back to his desk.
"Hello. Do you mind if I sit here?" Asked Julianne to Harry.
"Why sure no problem Julianne." Smiled Harry.
"Ok thanks." She said smiling at Harry.
Maria sat down beside Harry and took her out to take the notes. "I can't believe I'm meeting you Harry. It's been my dream since I was a little girl." She said.
"Wow. Thanks. It's nice to make a girl's dreams come true." He said.
Hermione sitting at the table beside the two felt the heat rush to her ears.
"Oh…Potter has found a new little girlfriend." Said Draco.
"Shut it." Hermione said continuing to write down the notes.
"Wow you really have competition this year, Hermione." Draco said smiling.
"You're just mad because I didn't let you live your fantasy." Spat Hermione.
" In do time Hermione." Said Draco before returning to his work.

Harry that afternoon showed Maria around the school and explained to her most of the classes.
"Well both my parents are purebloods but we used to live in America. I went to Morton School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in California. Though I am originally from England. I moved to the U.S. when I was 8 and lived there for 8 years before I came back here." Said Maria as she and Harry were walking around the lake.
Hermione and Lavender were also outside at that time of the day. The two girls were appointing their thoughts on the new girl.
"I don't get what the big deal with her is. Just because she has bigger breasts then most of us doesn't make her anymore appealing." Whined Lavender.
"I know! Who does she think she is? God." Hermione said looking at Harry and Julianne walking around the lake.
"Wow Harry really seems to be interested in her." Noted Lavender.
"Shut up." Hermione said.
"Hey! I may be wrong you know? He's probably being nice. Because he's in love with you remember. I don't think you can fall out of love that easily." Said Lavender.
"You're right. Let's go have a little fun." Smiled Hermione mischievously as she went over to Harry.
Hermione and Lavender rushed over to Harry's side and smiled at Maria and him. "Hey Potter." Said Lav
as she ruffled Harry's hair.
"Wow Lav. Your hyper today!" Noticed Harry.
"Hi I'm Lavender! And your Maria right?" Asked Lav. Maria smiled and nodded at Lav.
Hermione went over to Harry and gave him a quick kiss on the lips.
"And I'm Hermione nice to meet you." Said Mione to Maria.
"It's nice to meet you two." Said Maria.
"Hey Hermione what are you doing this weekend?" Asked Harry to his girlfriend.
"Oh you know me. Study and then…I really don't know." Laughed Hermione.
"Because I was wondering if you'd like to go have dinner with me on Saturday night." Spoke Harry.
"What is the special occasion?" Asked Hermione.
"Can't a boyfriend go out to dinner with his girlfriend?" He asked.
Hermione laughed. "Ofcourse he can!"
Harry quickly kissed Hermione and turned his attention to Lavender. "Hey have you seen Ron?" He asked.
Lavender looked at Harry weirdly. "Why would I have seen Ron?" She asked.
"Oh I don't know. Because you're his girlfriend and you practically take up most of his time because your always snogging in the 100's of broom closets there are here." Said Harry.
"Well to tell you, the last time I saw Ron was at 3:00 pm and he was in the common room balancing three books on his head. And there are 237 broom closets Harry. And we've only snogged in 114." Lavender said assertively.
Maria laughed. "Wow."
Harry looked at Maria and smiled. "Come on. I'll introduce you to the Gryffindor's."
"Balancing books on his head?" Asked Hermione.
"Well you know Ron. Always doing things to make people laugh and unfortunately embarrassing himself in the process. I think it's sweet how he tries though." Said Lavender.
"He deserves a pat on the head for his efforts." Noted Hermione.
"Yes he does." Laughed Lavender.
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Hermione, Lavender, Maria, and Harry made their way in the common room where Seamus and Ron were playing chess, Parvati and Dean were arguing and Ginny was reading a book with Neville at her side.
"Your such an ignorant pig! You know that?" Screamed Parvati.
"What how can I be a pig when you're the one who snorts when you sleep!" Yelled Dean.
"Ah! How dare you? You hardly care about my feelings at all! All you care about is soccer!"
"That is not true! I care about your feelings!" Yelled Dean.
"Oh yeh? Then when was the last time I was sad about something?" Asked Parvati.
"That's easy! 28 days ago when you had your period!" Exclaimed Dean.
"Argh! No! You see? You see what I have to deal with?" Exclaimed Parvati.
Dean put on his puppy dog face. "Come on you know you love me."
Parvati tried the best to not give in. Unfortunately she did not succeed. "I love you." She said kissing him.
"Wow! Can you guys snog elsewhere? Were trying to play chess and it's a little hard to concentrate when Parvati moans like a dehydrated cow." Said Ron receiving a death glare from Parvati and Dean who hurried up the stairs.
Harry cleared his throat and everyone turned to look at him. "This is Maria." He said pointing to a smiling Maria.
"Hi it's very nice to meet you all." She said.
Lavender hurried to Ron where she kissed him on the lips.
"Who's winning?" She asked.
"Who do you think?" Asked Seamus.
"Ron?" She asked.
"Yeh. The man is pure genius at the game. I don't even know why I bother playing against him." Said Seamus.
"Well you'd play really well, when you knew you were in a hurry to win so you could go find the 115th broom closet with your girlfriend to snog in." Responded Ron.
"Wow that was an over share." Said Seamus concentrating on his game.
Maria quickly started talking to Neville and Ginny. Lavender looked at Seamus staring at Ginny at some moments and Ginny and him would lock eyes. Lav looked at Ron who seemed to be completely oblivious to his sister's love interest.
Hermione was sitting on Harry's lap in one of the comfy armchairs. She quickly drifted to sleep on his shoulder after he began caressing her hair. Maria sighed as she saw the two.
"He really is in love with her isn't he?" Asked Maria to Lavender about Harry and Hermione.
"Yes he is. And she is too. Their the most popular couple here." Lavender said.
"How long have they been going out?" Asked Maria.
"It'll be a year in July."
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Harry led Hermione, who was blindfolded out on the grounds at Hogwarts.
"Where are we going? You said we were going out for dinner." Exclaimed Hermione.
"We are." Harry said leading Hermione on the quidditch field.
"Sit down." He instructed her too.
Hermione did as she was told. "Take off the blindfold." Said Harry. Again Hermione did as she was told.
She opened her eyes and saw a picnic lay out on the grass. The aromas of the candles were in the air and the moon and stars were shinning down on them.
"Wow Harry this is beautiful." Said Hermione.
"Anything for a beautiful girl." He said.
Hermione blushed and took a sip of the wine. "Thank you. Thank you for everything."
Harry kissed her and began nibbling on the sandwich.
"I can't believe you prepared all of this yourself." Said Hermione.
"I didn't. Dobby helped."
Hermione smiled. "Good, old, reliable Dobby."
"Maria seems nice doesn't she?" Asked Harry.
"Can we talk about something else please?" Asked Hermione trying to change the subject.
"Why?" Asked Harry.
"Just because. So how was your day?"
"Good Hermione."
"Good."
"Good."
Harry looked at Hermione and cupped her face in his hands and kissed her.
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Lavender and Ron were walking through the halls and were looking for one of their infamous broom closets.
"Here's a new one." Said Ron opening the door. Lavender gripped on to his arm.
Ron was in shock at what he saw. "WHAT ARE YOU TWO DOING IN HERE?" He yelled.
Seamus and Ginny walked out of the broom closet.
"Ron I can explain…" Ginny stated.
