I threw a few t-shirts in my trunk. I was packing for my trip with Hermione.
Hmm, do I need sunscreen? Of course. I tossed a tube of sunscreen in my trunk as well as a few other things.
Flashback
"Hey Y/n! How's your summer been till now?" Hermione asked through .
"It's been great Hermione, but I'm bored and fed up of ." I laughed in response.
"Oh, well then, this is great . We're going to Paris in a few and said I could bring a along. Do you want to come? Please?" She buzzed through .
My mouth dropped open. Paris? It had seemed like a dream to me, with those gorgeous towers and delicious foods, and the picturesque places. I had several old cutouts that I saved, Paris was a dream, because we couldn't go there.
"Wow, um- wow, Hermione a-are you sure?" I sputtered through .
"Yes! Absolutely!" Hermione laughed. "Now go and ask your mum, I'll wait."
"Mu-mum? Can you come here a moment?" I called up the stairs.
"Yes dear, coming!" Molly Weasley walked down the stairs, mum flashed a smile at me.
"Uh-um, well-er- mum. I was wondering if- Hermione's parents have invited me to go to Paris with them. Can I go?" I asked and gave a nervous smile.
Mum gave a look of thought, then paused, and said "Why not? It's about time you have some fun. No doubt your brothers have been bugging you. Ginny isn't exactly exciting either, is she?" Mum said brightly.
"YES! YES!" I screamed in delight. I ran back to the phone and picked it up. "Her-Hermy? MY MUM SAID YES! I CAN COME!" My best friend squealed happily and response.
✧・゚: *✧・゚Time skip ・゚✧*:・゚✧
"I'm still mad I can't come. Have fun with your 'girls trip'" my twin brother Ron grumbled.
"Hey, bring me back a dress or two!" Fred nudged me playfully.
"And I saw this great make-up kit I'd like!" George ruffled my hair.
"Ginny, I'll bring you back something alright?" I smiled at my younger sister.
"Oh! I see her!" I said waving at Hermione, who was running towards us.
She hugged Ron and hugged me too. "I'm so excited!" she whispered into my ear.
She said bye to Ginny and the others and we walked further into the airport with mum and Hermione's parents.
"Oh my godric, we're going to have so much fun!" I cried as mum went over to talk with Hermione's parents.
"We'll gossip--" Hermione started.
"-And swim!--" I added.
"-And go shopping!--"
"-And eats loads of food!--"
"Girls! Let's go!" Hermione's mum called us.
I hugged mum, "Bye mum! I'll miss you!", "Oh yes, me too, don't forget to write every day!" she said bopping my nose.
I walked with Hermione and soon, we got into the flight.

POA (Point of audience)
The next few weeks of summer went by like a breeze for Hermione and Y/n. They enjoyed giggling and gossiping together every night, shopping every afternoon was also great. They certainly weren't complaining about the unique dishes they got to try everyday.
Hermione's parents absolutely loved Y/n, they treated her like their own daughter. There wasn't much talk about the wizarding world, except for homework here and there and flaming gossip.
"So," Hermione said putting on a pair of sunglasses. "Do you want to go swim in the hotel pool, or to the seaside?"
"Um, let's go swim in the pool today!" Y/n replied, lathering sunscreen on her arms.
They linked arms and went down to the hotel pool. It was pretty deserted except for a few small children playing on the waterslides.
Hermione slipped into the water and sipped her juice. Y/n followed, taking off her sunglasses and putting them on a nearby chair.
"Okay, Y/n. You have to tell me who you fancy!" Hermione giggled.
Y/n blushed a little. No one knew this, but, after Harry had rescued her from the chamber last year. She started liking him a bit, but she realised that she always had a little crush on him, but it was only at the end of last year when she concluded it.
"Oh 'Mione! Honestly!" Y/n laughed.
"Oh come on, tell me! You can trust me!" the bushy-haired girl nudged Y/n.
"Well," Y/n sighed, "I don't really fancy anyone yet, or.. I'm not sure, but once I do, you'll be the first to know." Y/n patted Hermione's arm reassuringly.
"Alright then.." Hermione smiled.
The girls giggled and splashed water all over, after a lot of paddling and talking, they went inside.

"Oh! It's Harry's birthday tomorrow" I said, throwing aside a used towel.
"Oh yes, it is, I almost forgot!" Hermione said as she brushed her bushy hair.
I went over to her and helped her brushed her hair, "We can maybe owl him some presents," I thought as I struggled with a knot in my friend's hair.
"Hm, we can get gifts from some stores nearby, and if we owl to him at 6:30, it'll reach him by midnight." Hermione replied.
We went out for dinner and stopped by some stores, we heard there was a wizard store nearby, so we figured we'd check that out.
We told Hermione's parents we were just going to check it out, and we went down a few lanes and then an alley.
"It should be right about there!" Hermione pointed in a direction while looking at a map.
We stepped into a store, obviously magical, given the looks and the products. The shopkeeper nodded at us after we vaguely showed our wands.
I walked past a few aisles and stopped at one that had gleaming wristwatches.
Curious, I walked further into the aisle and saw a dusty sign placed near the watches.
Curious as they may seem, the owners that wear them will find great comfort and ease.
I shrugged and grabbed a gold wristwatch that shone out from the others. The owners that wear them. I should think of Harry, since I'm giving it to him.
Then, on the side of the watch, his name appeared, carved into the watch. Harry Potter. A blank big rectangle on the bottom of the watch was now showcasing pictures of people. First rolled in Harry's parents, holding a baby Harry, Aw. Then rolled in us, me, Hermione, Ron and Harry smiling. Then Dumbledore with Harry, and then Hedwig.
So, this watch showed pictures of people, and things, that Harry found comfort in.
This was perfect! Harry needed it. He was constantly getting into trouble and was always near death.
First year we encountered Voldemort, in the back of Quirrell's head, Harry almost died, and so did we.
Second year, Tom Riddle, who was also Voldemort, took me into the Chamber Of Secrets, and I was very close to dying. And the basilisk nearly killed Harry.
I checked out the gift and paid for it, I also had a small golden snitch carved on the back.
Hermione excitedly showed off her gift for Harry: A broomcare kit.
We reached our hotel rooms and started writing letters for Harry.
Dear Harry,
Happy birthday! Sorry I'm not there, but I got you a great present! I miss you (not), me and Hermione are in Paris right now! I'm travelling with her parents and Ron's gone to Egypt to see Charlie with our family.
Owl me back in case that idiot cousin of you bothers you too much, I'll be over to the house in a few minutes to hex him.
We're having a great time at Paris, we tried new food and we paddled a lot. I hope your summer's good too. Don't mind the Dursleys much, have a great birthday. Oh, and please stay out of trouble, you know I worry.
I also sent you a few tarts in case you get hungry, god knows those muggles don't feed you.
I'm going to get school supplies with mum and everyone after I get back, stop by the Leaky Cauldron if you can, or else, we'll see you at King's Cross soon!
Lots of hugs,
Y/n :)
Hermione finished her letter and we tied them to Hedwig's little feet. She couldn't carry the gifts so she brought along another owl.
I sighed and lay on the bed, hopefully this will be a quiet year..
