They took the express back to school, The whole crowd from Christmas in one compartment. It felt funny not waiting for Draco to come and insult them instead sitting there laughing and telling stories with him. Neville was the worst of the bunch since he got his new wand his confidence had soared, and Luna with one arm around each of them it really felt good.
Hermione was sleeping in Harry's arms, even though she had been given a clean bill of health still was tiring easily. Harry just loved holding her; they were getting married quarters when they got back to school. From the look of the letter McGonagall was not happy about it.
About half way through the ride to Hogsmead the Slytherin's made their appearance. "You Hanging out with Loons and losers now Dumbo? Pansy Said as she looked at Draco. Harry Laughed.
"No Pansy, Draco moved up from your Group of inbred fools."
Draco then chimed in, "I also had the best holiday of my life…I actually had fun! Go on back to your low life click."
Pansy pulled her wand but Hermione was faster. "I wouldn't go there if I were you Pansy….You will not like the result!"
After that the Slytherin's retreated.
Harry looked at Draco, "If it gets too hot in the dungeons we have a spare bedroom in our suite Draco."
Draco gave his old famous smirk. "I think you'll need me down there. I may not be popular any more but I do have ears. Besides Snape is my Godfather he'll watch my back."
Harry then drifted off to sleep holding Hermione. Life felt so good holding her. He only wished he had noticed the way he truly loved her the first time around. Yet now he slept in sweet slumber.
Harry and Hermione were awakened with just five minutes until they arrived in Hogsmead. They Ran to the restrooms and changed into robes, and still looked a bit disheveled as they exited the train.
The Carriage ride was quiet, and most of them could see the thestrals now since watching the now infamous duel of Ron and Harry.
The fireworks started when the group got to the common room. Percy was assigned to show Harry and Hermione, to the Gryffindor Marriage suite. After giving the new couple the pass word, he rounded on Harry. "Look Potter, I'm a prefect here in this school. The others might let you get away with murdering my brother, but I will not. Watch your back Potter! Oh, and Ten points each from Gryffindor for arriving tonight looking like you slept in your clothes!"
When The Poncy Percy Left, Harry and Hermione just laughed. The fool actually thought he could rattle Harry he was sadly mistaken. Harry decided he would let out a bit of his marauder heritage.
It was two weeks Latter in the Great Hall at breakfast, when the entertainment began.
