One More Time

a/n- A little creepy, yes I admit it! Okay I really wanna write funny stuff but weird stuff pops in my head! Oh well. Here is the story.Told from Hermione's POV.
Disclaimer: I own Noone ewxcept my character, Lili, *yes she's mine!!!* Okay I got her name from Rowling but her personality house and everything else about her is mine!!!
"I can't wait till tomorrow!" I told my mother.I was going back to Hogwarts tomorrow. "Wait a second! We are hosting an exchange student and you WILL be nice. Got it?" I nodded my head." Good she'll be here in an hour. Oh and you got an owl." She pointed to a large snowy owl. Hedwig. Harry had replied to my note. I grabbed the letter and gave Hedwig a treat, then ran up to my room. I opened the letter.
Dear Hermione,
I'll try to meet you in Platform 9 and 3/4 tomorrow. That way we can get a compartment together. Is it true that Ron tried to kiss you? I can't believe that at all. Ron is so wierd the way he tries to steal you from me.OK? Meet me tomorrow on the train!
Love,
Harry
I sighed. Ron had tried to kiss me but I had rejected him. I knew he liked me but I never thought of him that way. Just a close friend.On the other hand I loved Harry. I really wanted to tell Harry that an exchange student from America was coming but i didn't know if Hedwig was there still. I ran downstairs and Hedwig was chirping happily with my mom.She was telling her to add more spice. She dipped in a little more cinnamon. Just then the doorbell rang. "I'll get it Mum!" I answered the door and there stood a girl around 15, with dirty blond hair but pure blond streaks. She had blueish silver eyes and her skin was light but tanned. "Hi you must be Her-mione. I'm Lili Noelle Peterson ,but you can call me Lili." She smiled." I am Her-my-o-knee. That is how you say it."
" Herm? Who is it?" screamed my mother. " Mum it's Lily" " Who??" " The Exchange student!!" "OH WELL BRING HER IN!!!" "Okay! Come on I'll show you around." I showed her everywhere except my room. SHe was amazed. I knew she would like my room. It was just our age except I had a big pile of stuffed animals. I brought her into my room and she went balistic. " OH I ABSOLUTLY LOVE IT!"
" Glad" was how I responded.I was glad to here she liked my room. "this is where you are gonna sleep" YOu can pitch with me in the twin bed it was for my cousin but she's not coming because she is also on an exchange trip." I breathed a sigh of relief as she had just made a dresser appear and began packing mini skirts, tank tops, tube tops, shorts, dresses and nighties." Do you know what house you'll be in?" I asked. I was trying engage convorsation. " No I suppose I'll be in your house though, Is it a good one?''she asked.
" Yeah it is the best there."
"Figures"
"What's that supposed to mean?"
"I dunno.I mean look at you. Your clothes are perfect, your hair is well, your room is perfect, and your grades are probaly perfect."
" I knew there was something wrong with the way you looked at me, Lili, You're probally better off than me. I love your outfits, your hair IS perfect and you probally can get any man you want because your looks are also good!"
The next few days, Lili was a dream to help out Mom with dinner.Everytime I was practicing spells and Mom asked me to help with something, Lili jumped right up and did it instead. I was getting ready for school and she walked into the room to get her stuff and put it in the car she would roll her eyes at me. I hated it. An in the car was no better either. I had enchanted the trunk to never run out of room and our stuff all sat comfortably in the trunk. Crookshanks slept on my lap while her cat, Snuffbug, sat on her lap. I had to sit next to her too. I hated it we didn't talk to each other till we got to platform 9 and 3/4." Hermione how do we get to the platform?"
" All you have to do is walk right through the barrier between platforms 9 and 10." I grinned.
"That is immposible."she said quietly.
" I thought you were a witch." I teased.
"I am I'll try,"
And with that she walked toward the barrier with me at her elbow.We walked right through and saw the Hogwarts Express looking back at us."Hey Hermione!" said two voices in unison. It was Harry and Ron. Both were grinning wildly. " Hey who's that?" asked Ron. "Oh this is Lili Peterson. She's from U.S." I said.
"Wild. You know alot of magic?"asked Harry.I scolwed.
" Oh Sorry Herm."he added. While they were on the train Malfoy and his gang walked in.
" So I hear that there is a new girl in this compartment.Where is she?"said Malfoy.
" Hi", said Lili jumping up," I am new any problems with that?"
" None what so ever", said Malfoy looking at her with interest," I am Draco Malfoy." He extened his hand.
Lili reached for his hand and shook it gratefully." I am Lili Noelle Peterson." He stared at her for a moment." You got a eye problem?" She asked putting on her best ghetto voice." I grew up in dem ghettos of NYC. Makes ya tough. Whadda ya say? Where'd you grow up?"
Harry, Ron and I tried not to laugh. " I grew up in London. Come on Crabbe, Goyle. Let's get out of here."
After they left everyone was fed up with giggles." I can't belive you acted like your from the ghetto!" I yelled through my laughs. " Yeah I really did you grow up in NYC, but not in the ghettos. Some of my friends were poor and they grew up there. I sorta just picked it up." Lili said. They changed into their robes just as the witch with the food cart pulled up. They ordered alot then spent the rest of the ride to Hogwarts laughing, getting aquainted and eating. Wow, I thought, maybe this could turn out to be a good year after all.
