Hermione's POV

"Tell Moony I said hello and ask him if he's heard from Sirius" James tells me.

"I will, I know you've been worried as you haven't heard from him much this summer" I state. "I went through a similar thing during my summer after my first year at Hogwarts. Ron and I didn't hear from our friend all summer. Turned out a house elf was blocking his mail and he wasn't allowed to let his owl out of her cage" I tell him.

"Sounds like he had awful parents" James states.

"He's parents died when he was a baby, he was raised by his mother's sister. But now he'll have a chance to be raised by his parents. If I succeed" I tell him.

"I'm sure you will" he says with a smile.

"Hermione dear, it's time for you to go" Euphemia tells me. I nod my head and we headed to the living room. "Just say Lupin Den and you'll be taken to their living room" she tells me handing me some floo powder.

"See you in a few hours" I tell them. "Lupin Den" I say dropping the floo powder. I'm sucked into the floo network. I soon fall out of another fire place.

"You ok Mia?" Remus asks me concerned as he helped me up.

"Yes, first time I've traveled by Floo Powder" I tell him sheepishly. He grabbed a feather duster and dusted me off. "Thanks" I say with a small smile.

"Anyway mum says dinner should be ready in half an hour and dad should be returning from work soon" he tells me. Just then we heard a door open. "That'll be him" he says grabbing my hand and leading me to the hall way. Where we saw a wizard removing a cloak and hat. "Good afternoon dad, how was work?" he asks.

"Oh nothing important, though Rosemary Clearwater from the Office of Misinformation had her baby. And is now on maternity leave" the man states. "You must be Hermione Granger, a pleasure to meet you" he says giving me a smile.

"Pleasure" I say nodding my head.

"Well I'm going to go get washed up for dinner, Remus go see if your mum wants help setting up the table" Mr Lupin tells Remus. Who nods his head. Mr Lupin then goes upstairs while Remus lead me to the kitchen.

"Mum, Hermione is here. Mia this is my mother Hope Lupin" he says introducing us.

"A pleasure to meet you Mrs Lupin" I say politely.

"Oh calls me Hope dear" she tells me as she looks up from the pot. "Was that your father, I heard?" she asks Remus.

"Yes, he went to change for dinner" Remus tells her.

"Good, the beef stew is nearly ready. Why don't you both set up the table" she suggests. We agree and I grabbed the cutlery. While Remus got the bowls and glasses. We set the table. Soon we're all sitting down as Hope served the stew.

"So what do you do Mr Lupin?" I ask curious.

"Please call me Lyall" he tells me. "And I work at the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures. I used to work in the beasts, but now deal with spirits. After what happened to Remus" he explains.

"It wasn't your fault dad, I don't blame you and neither does mum" Remus tells him.

"I know you don't" Lyall says. "What about you Hermione, what do you plan on doing in the future?" he asks.

"Well I plan on making life better for house elves, werewolves, vampires and non-purebloods" I tell him.

"Ambitious, but I wish you luck" Lyall tells me.

"Remus says you're muggleborn" Hope says.

"I am, but I am currently living at Potter Manor" I tell them.

"Yes Remus mentioned that" Hope states.

"By the way Remus, have you heard from Sirius this summer? James hasn't and is a little worried" I state.

"Now that you mention it, I haven't" Remus says with a frown.

"I'm sure he's fine dears" Hope assures us.

"Hows Crookshanks?" Remus asks me.

"He is well, growing fast" I tell him. "Very smart, follows me around most of the day" I state. He smiles. "Thank you Lyall for him" I add.

"Oh you're welcome dear, besides kneazles choose their owners. Even part ones, he was meant to be yours" he tells me. Dinner was lovely. I stayed for dessert and played a game of chess with Remus. Before flooing back to Potter manor. Where I was greeted by James and Sirius.

"Thought you'd never return" James tells me as Sirius helped me up.

"What are you doing here Sirius?" I ask confused.

"Why I've run away from home and James' have agreed to let me stay here until I buy my own place" he states.

"Of course, you ran away from your house when you were sixteen. You told my friend that before our fifth year" I state.

"Yep, best decision I ever made" he says happily.

"Your mother blasts your face off of your tree" I tell him.

"I don't care" he tells me.

"Have you done your homework?" I ask him.

"No" he says.

"Well get your books, we are doing it now" I tell him. He groans looking at James for help.

"Don't look at me, she made me do it in the first week" James tells him. "We'll play a game of exploding snap afterwards" he assures him. Sirius got his books and started to do his homework. While James read a book about defensive spells and I read one on charms. When Sirius finished the drafts, I checked them all before saying he could finish them tomorrow.

I left him and James alone to play. While I went to my room and got ready for bed. I spotted Crookshanks already asleep on his half of the pillow. I laid down beside him and gave him a gentle pat. "Sweet dreams Crookshanks" I say and drift off into a dreamless sleep.
