Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered

Hermione lost everyone in the war with Voldemort; her parents, her boyfriend Ron and Harry, who left a week after graduation without a word. Now, five years later he has returned to Hogwarts to rebuild their friendship. Will Hermione forgive him for abandoining her? Will he tell her the real reason he left? How will the wizarding world react to the return of its favorite son?

"That's right. It's time for some answers from Harry Potter." After five years away, Harry has returned to Hogwarts to find a best friend that is holding a grudge and wanting some answers. Will he tell her everything or just enough to obtain an uneasy truce?

"Today we celebrarte the life and mourn the death of Ron Weasley." A flashback to Ron's funeral, a peek inside Harry's mind and two friends start the long and arduous process of rebuilding their friendship.

Harry is welcomed back to Hogwarts with open arms by everyone except Snape.

Home Improvement!Harry makes an appearance as he enlists Hermione to help him paint his bedroom. Talk of nightmares, road trips and bathroom reading material ensues. Bitter!Hermione makes her last stand, thank God.

Harry gives an interview, Snape gets pranked, Hermione gives Harry advice on girls (again), a date is made and the first ever appearance by a Telletubby in HP Fan Fic. With a summary like that, how can you NOT read it?

Harry invites Hermione, Ginny and Neville to his newly remodeled house for dinner. Harry cooks, Neville reveals a secret, Ginny teases Hermione and Hermione is still clueless...but not for long.

The slow build up to a relationship between Harry and Hermione continues.

Is it a date or not? Harry and Hermione spend a day (and night) together in London.

Harry proves that he is the son of a Marauder, but Hermione gives as good as she gets. Snape proves that he is, well...Snape. A fun interlude chapter before questions are answered and the real fun begins.

The Yule Ball? That's only supposed to be during the Tri-wizard tournament! Yes, I know. But it is explained, logically. Harry and Neville have big plans. Will they both be successful?

Hermione finally tells Harry what happend the night Ron died.

Harry and Hermione take their relationship to the next level (finally!).

“Harry James Potter requests the honor of Miss Hermione Jane Granger’s presence now through next Tuesday, to spend every waking minute with him — playing, sightseeing, laying around doing absolutely nothing, making love until we are too tired to speak, and anything else her heart desires. RSVP in person in the form of a kiss.”

It takes talent to write 33 pages of fluff, but I've done it. Harry and Hermione say "the words," celebrate New Year's Eve, cause a scene in the middle of Diagon Alley and Hermione is haunted by someone unexpected in her dreams the last night she and Harry are together before the end of the holidays.

The students return from holiday, ending Harry and Hermione's week together. The wizarding world finds out about their relationship in a very public way and the past returns to haunt them once again.

Can Harry and Hermione work through their problems and move forward in their relationship? If so, where do they go from here?

This is the final chapter where the loose ends are tied up and you find out what happens in Harry and Hermione's future.
