Hufflepuff never works overtime

Hufflepuff Never Work Overtime by Lappy

In the winter of 1988, when Faith was feeding the little rabbits in the school, she accidentally found an unsocial lion cub licking its wound alone in the corner.

Out of a moment of curiosity and pity, she stepped forward and squatted beside Hermione, "What's wrong with you?"

Of course, Faise was driven away by the angry little lion.

Fortunately, she was not discouraged by this. By chance, she discovered Hermione's soft inner body under the sharp armor. In repeated contacts, without her own awareness, she was attracted by this smart, confident and The gentle girl was deeply attracted.

However, the dull Badger didn't notice that under his pampering and pampering, the eyes of the people around him gradually became strange when looking at him.

Until the early spring of 1994, Hermione held her tightly in her arms, "I like you, Faith, will you be my girlfriend?"

At that moment, Feise realized that the lonely little lion had already taken root in her heart, her emotions were affected by the people in front of her, and her answer was already clear in her heart.

"of course."

Chapter 1 Graduation Ceremony

In a British primary school, the slightly old hall was decorated with elaborate decorations for this special day.A group of well-dressed little bean dings sat in the front row.From the graduation caps on their heads and the well-dressed appearance of adults behind them, it is not difficult to find that this is a graduation ceremony for little Muggles.

"Be quiet guys, I know you're excited," said an elderly woman with a stern face, tapping the microphone in front of her, "but before we head out to the lawn for a group photo, I ask you to sit here patiently ,"

The principal paused for his own words, and nodded in satisfaction until the entire auditorium fell silent, "Okay, now let us welcome this year's outstanding graduate—Miss Hermione Granger to the stage."

Finally, when he heard the name he had been waiting for for a long time, a blond-haired little bean in the audience suddenly woke up from his doze, and took the lead in clapping vigorously regardless of the strange eyes of the students beside him.

Until the headmaster glanced at the little guys who didn't show face with her sharp eyes, most of them applauded reluctantly. Fortunately, most of the parents were still very face-saving. Obviously, they all respected this little guy who was in their own children and I am curious about the names that often appear in the teacher's mouth.

"Go, Miss Granger." Looking at the child who had been preparing for a long time at the side of the podium, the headmaster looked at her with encouraging eyes. She has always liked this smart and well-behaved child.

Hermione nodded with the headmaster's promising expression, took another deep breath, and strode to the front of the podium. Her homeroom teacher had already set up the stool for her, and compared to the proud student. A cheering gesture.

"Huh..." Hermione took a deep breath and said, "Dear teachers, parents and dear students, hello everyone... ..."

"Ah," a deep sigh sounded behind Faith, "I bet Granger is going to give another long and stinky speech, God knows I just want to play football in the park now, when is it going to happen?" Change the clothes that are getting in the way..."

"Don't say that," Faith didn't turn her head. She didn't know if Hermione, who was speaking, would notice her movement, but retorted softly, "Hermione has been preparing for today's speech for a long time."

"It's because she's been preparing for so long that it's scary," the black-haired girl carelessly curled her hair with her fingers and said with a smile, "It took her nearly an hour to speak by herself last time, trust her The other spokespeople almost had to step down after introducing themselves."

"Yes, yes, yes," the boy in the back row brought his head closer, "I swear that day I saw the old woman's bewildered look after she interrupted her, 'Okay, Miss Granger, let's give some to the others too. Is there room for performance?' Hahahaha, that was the funniest part of her speech."

"Speak less, Thain," Faith frowned. The blow that day made Hermione think about it for a long time, so when she received the graduation speech commission from the teacher this time, she spent a lot of spare time in In terms of writing and revising speeches, "You don't want to sue your parents on the last day, right? The teacher has been watching you for a long time."

Parents and teachers always have the most chemical effect on this group of young children. Unfortunately, even this kind of deterrence can't stop their gossip. After a moment of silence, the small voice of communication rang out again.

Fortunately, the girl on the stage remained calm and strictly practiced the tricks she extracted from the book "How to Make a Good Speech": keep her words clear, pay attention to eye contact with the audience, and hold her head high without showing timidity.

Mrs. Granger heard that she was going to give a speech in front of so many people, so she took care of her long hair from the morning, so that the thick brown hair hung down obediently behind her. Hermione even put on light makeup, but unfortunately The slender eyebrows seem to make her even more impersonal.

"If she can change her inflexible personality and domineering way of speaking, so many people won't hate her," Doris shrugged as she looked at the hardworking people on the podium, and lightly touched her with her elbow. Touching the people around her, "Face, do you know which middle school she will go to?"

Hearing this question, Faith showed a trace of hesitation on her face, and slowly shook her head, "She didn't take the initiative to mention it to me, so I didn't ask."

"I thought you guys would definitely go to the same school." Doris seemed surprised to hear this answer, she leaned over and asked gossip, "I don't know how you tolerate yourself and Granger staying in the same school every day." Together, listen to her show off how smart and outstanding she is?"

"Hermione won't be like that," Faise tried to save Hermione's image in the hearts of other students, although she had tried countless times for this move, but it always ended in failure...

The root cause of this incident is not only the prejudice among classmates and the teacher's eccentricity, but of course it has a lot to do with the protagonist's little hands who can't control her eagerness to move, "She just wants to do one thing best. , and she takes good care of me, it's not like you don't know."

"Yes, but I still don't understand why Granger is so favored by you. Have you ever thought that maybe it's because she treats you well because she only has you as a friend. If it weren't for you, no one would like her. Of course, Get rid of those teachers who are possessed!" Doris seemed to have thought of something dissatisfied, and her gradually high-pitched voice immediately attracted several inquiring eyes, and she noticed that there were also warning words from the teacher line of sight.

"Okay," Faith patted Doris reassuringly, "I know you are a little dissatisfied with Hermione, but this may be the last time we get along with her, isn't it, and this time I studied the manuscript with her It's been a long time, at least listen to the rest of it patiently, and take it as a way to cherish the fruits of my labor."

------------

This book focuses on the original daily life of the two protagonists, and there will not be too much original content. It may take a long period of transition from friends to ambiguous periods to lovers. The main reason is that the two people are a bit young now (?-? *)

I hope you can witness the growth of the two with a relaxed mood. I hope this book can make up for some regrets and bring you some happiness.

Sincerely invite you to participate in this magical journey

Chapter 2 Hermione Jane Granger

When Hermione ended her speech with an impassioned speech, the entire auditorium burst into applause—the adults mostly lamented the excellence of the 11-year-old child, while the children cheered for their liberation at last.

No matter what the reason was, Hermione was so excited that she couldn't help shaking with such affirmation. She saw the parents with unstoppable smiles at the parents' seat, and immediately felt a lot more relaxed. Then his eyes began to search for that touch of gold.

Faith is not tall, and her blond hair is not too conspicuous among British children, but Hermione always feels that her hair color is much softer than others, especially under the light of the auditorium, it even has a slight orange color. It gave her an indescribable, very special feeling.

In just a blink of an eye, she found the person she was looking for, and Faith's eyes were always on Hermione. The moment they looked at each other, she gave Hermione a thumbs up and smiled.

Feeling that the big stone in her heart finally fell to the ground, Hermione felt that her face should be very red now because of the uncontrollable excitement in her heart. She stepped off the pedal generously and bowed to all the audience, as if she had finished An important show.

The little lion with its head held high walked off the podium with erratic steps. She couldn't wait to hear Faith's evaluation of her performance, but she was stopped by the principal lady on the way, "Miss Granger, wait a moment Okay, do you mind if I take up some of your time after the free time? I've always wanted to take a photo with my favorite student."

Seeing the headmaster who had changed her usual serious expression and winked at herself, Hermione felt her heart beating wildly, "Of course it's okay ma'am, it's my honor!" Presumably, Mom, Dad and Faise would agree with her Taking advantage of the principal's decision on the stage to announce free activities, she nervously adjusted her long hair and the graduation cap on her head.

"Children, you have an hour to enjoy this memorable moment with your friends and parents. After an hour, we will gather on the lawn for a group photo. Is that clear?"

"Understood!" Looking at the little Doudings who had already started to commotion in the audience, the principal smiled, knowing that he would be foolish to delay any longer, so he waved his hand, "We are disbanding now, I hope you all have a good time at school Last time."

"Where are you going, Faith?" After the crowd rushed out of the auditorium, Doris grabbed the person who was about to separate from the main group, "Granger is surrounded by the principal and a bunch of teachers, they will definitely spend a long time."

"I know," Faith avoided the other party's enthusiastic gaze, and said somewhat uncomfortably, "I just want to go to the breeding area to see those little rabbits again."

"Hey!" Doris was obviously dissatisfied with the answer, she took Faise with one hand and nodded her head, "The headmaster's wife said it's time to take graduation photos, I know you don't like taking pictures, but Don't you want to leave a memory with us?"

"I'm sorry Doris..." Faith had a troubled expression on her face, she just tried to sneak away just to avoid this incident, "I just, just don't want to participate in this activity, I am very grateful that you think of me, Can I promise to stand by your side during the group photo?"

"Doris!" Doris could hear her mother's eager cry, and she also noticed Faise's unnatural expression when she heard it. Thinking of her friend's unfortunate family background, the hand she originally wanted to hold on silently She took it back, "I'm sorry, Faith... I just forgot."

"It's okay, go quickly, don't worry Mrs. Smith."

"Yeah! It's settled, you have to stand by my side later, even Granger can't fight me!" Doris waved at Faith while running to the direction where her name was just heard. wave.

"Well, see you later."

Seeing Doris' figure disappear into the crowd, Faise withdrew her waving hand. She breathed a sigh of relief, suppressed the sudden loneliness in her heart, and walked towards the breeding area alone.

-----------------------------

"Hermione is right, I really spoiled you." Seeing those chubby little guys scrambling to chew the hay in her hand, Faise touched their little heads, "I can't bite anymore Those mischievous fingers, otherwise no one would want to take care of you."

The ears of the fluffy dumpling in his hand trembled a bit, and he didn't know if he understood what he said. The small head rubbed against Feisi's palm, bringing an itchy touch, but soon he devoted himself to its pleasant eating activities up.

"They just don't want to take the time to get to know you, impose their own ideas on you, find that it is different from what they imagined, and quickly talk to themselves about disappointment," raking the hay that was left on the ground several days ago Gathering together little by little, Faise looked at the little rabbits nesting everywhere, and then at the auditorium where the crowd had dispersed, "It's obviously very cute and very family."

Not long after, Faise cleaned up the whole area, just like she had always done, but unfortunately there was one less person to help today, which made her feel so tired that she couldn't straighten up, "It feels like the time is almost up, I should go find..."

"Hey, Faith!" A familiar voice called her name from a distance, and as she kept approaching, she could still vaguely hear Mrs. Granger's smiling voice, "Slow down, Hermione, don't run. "

Before she could react, Hermione's soft body hung on Faise's body with the faint smell of perfume and gave her a bear hug. She wrapped her arms around Faise's chest excitedly, two Standing on tiptoe, "How am I doing today!"

Faith patted Hermione's arm to signal her to let go, turned around, opened her arms and hugged her back tightly in Hermione's excited expression, "You did a great job, that's as good as I've ever heard Best commencement speech ever."

Chapter 3 Little Rabbit

"But you only participated in this graduation ceremony," Hermione seemed dissatisfied with this answer, she pouted, "Forget it, I was looking for you everywhere just after I finished, shaking the entire lawn I didn't even notice you, luckily I guessed you would be here!"

"You know I just don't like taking pictures," Faith said, relieved that Hermione didn't ask other students about her speech. She didn't want to deceive Hermione, let alone ruin her good mood.

"Hi Fais," Mrs. and Mrs. Granger came late at a leisurely pace, and after greeting the familiar little guy, Mrs. Granger knelt down and wiped the sweat off Hermione's head with a handkerchief, and then Looking at Faith with regret, "I thought you would agree to Hermione's invitation to let me help you do your makeup together. I heard that you agreed to take a photo with her, right?"

"Hmm." Faith lowered her head in embarrassment, trying to hide herself behind Hermione, avoiding that gentle and sympathetic gaze. She didn't know why, but Mrs. Granger had always treated her so much. However, every time she faces this kind of care from the elders, she always seems at a loss.

"I told you a long time ago, how nice it would be to let your mother dress you up!" Hermione held Faise's frame, took off the pair of glasses she disliked in every possible way from Faise's face, looked at it for a long time and nodded.

"Put some lipstick on like this, Faise, you will definitely be able to compare with Smith's flower peacock. But your skin is really good..." Hermione poked Faise's cheek while speaking, It really is the soft touch as expected.

"Hermione," Faith reluctantly took back her glasses from Hermione's hands, "I'm just not used to using those cosmetics, and unlike you, I don't need to speak on stage, there are clothes prepared for me by the rabbi I think that's enough."

"Okay," Hermione shrugged nonchalantly, apparently this wasn't the first time this conversation had happened between them.

She couldn't wait to go to her father's side and tugged at the corner of his clothes, "Dad, can you take a photo for me and Faith? Just use these little rabbits as the background."

"Of course, then please ask the little princesses to stand together and look at the camera, okay?"

It was probably because she hadn't taken a photo alone with others for a long time, and Faise always felt that her smile and posture were extremely stiff. She imagined her appearance in the camera, maybe it was like a stone lion statue in a park.

Maybe it was because she was afraid that Hermione would be dissatisfied with this photo when she got home, or that she didn't have a good time taking the photo in order to accommodate herself, Faise grabbed Hermione's sleeve and asked in a low voice, "Don't you want to take pictures on the lawn?" ? Everyone's there."

"It's okay, I planned to come here from the beginning," Hermione waved her hand nonchalantly, "After all, this is also the place where you first talked to me."

"Well," thinking of this, Fayse couldn't help smiling. She came here to feed the little rabbits that day at noon, but unexpectedly found a lost lion cub staring at her with red eyes. "Before that, I I always thought you hated me."

"Hate it? How could it be?" Hermione tilted her head puzzled, "I always thought you were avoiding me."

"That's probably because," recalling the past, Faith looked a little embarrassed, "at that time, they said you were a bit arrogant and not easy to get close to, and I saw that you valued books and studies very much. I subconsciously feel that you probably don't want to stay with someone like me who is poor at learning."

"Okay, Faith," the little lion with its teeth and five claws ravaged Faise's face with both hands wantonly after hearing this, and she casually glanced at the Grangers who were teasing the little rabbit. The image of a well-behaved child in the parents' place is destroyed.

"It turns out that I have such a bad image in your heart! Besides, your grades are different from those troublemakers. It's just that no one can help you study at that time... So I haven't asked you yet, you next Which school are you going to?"

"A school sent me an acceptance letter, but I haven't decided whether to go or not." Faith didn't dare to look Hermione in the eyes, her hands unconsciously played with the tassel on Hermione's graduation cap , as if he was still obsessed with the fringe-turning ceremony just now.

Faith was far more disturbed than happy about receiving this admission letter. Although the rabbi had always emphasized to the young master that Hogwarts was excellent, and it was also her father's alma mater, her connection with that wizarding world was very real. There were too few, and she felt overwhelmed even just seeing the list of necessary items for admission.

"Why?" Hermione was very puzzled by Faise's hesitation, but unfortunately her own admission experience was too special in the Muggle world, so she couldn't share it with Faise now—even though she wanted to Do this.

You must know that she seems to be able to recall the scene when the brown owl flew into her house and delivered the letter with her name to her hand as soon as she closed her eyes.

"Is that school's reputation or admission rate bad? Or are you worried about tuition fees?" Hermione tried to think from her friend's point of view.

In fact, she herself was a little uneasy about going to middle school, because unlike Faise, Hermione always felt that she was out of place with her classmates. Even though she never did anything bad or bullied others, except for Faise, everyone else I don't want to be close to her, let alone be a friend.

Those isolations and ridicules hurt a child terribly, even the smart Miss Granger cannot avoid it. After being accompanied by Faith, she felt more clearly how much her classmates treated her. different.

Although it's not that she hasn't tried to make changes, it's just a waste of effort, and it will only increase her troubles.

So when she got that acceptance letter, she was so excited, she finally found a perfect excuse for her unsatisfactory relationships-I was different from them, I was a wizard.

The only thing Hermione feels worried about is the future of her friend.

Although parents often say that Faise is a good child who is sensible and self-reliant, and even herself admits that Faise is better in many aspects besides sports and studies, it does not mean that she does not need help and support.

It is also her own selfishness that she did not raise this question until today.

In fact, more than anyone else, she hopes that Faise will have a good future, not only for the sake of her friend's future, but also because of the guilt in her heart that jumps out to remind her from time to time—you left Faise here alone .

The author's words:

I hope to show Miss Granger's character as much as possible, but because she is still a child, I can't write it particularly complicated_(:3」∠)_

Chapter 4 Mocking

"Don't worry about Hermione." Seeing the little lion's frown deepened, Faise interrupted her wild thoughts in time, "Actually, I'm not mainly troubled by school affairs. In fact, my..." She seemed a little uncomfortable with that address, "My grandpa and the principal of the school will come to my house next week to discuss this matter together."

"Your grandpa?!" Hermione was obviously taken aback by the sudden appearance of her relatives, and she walked up to Faise abruptly. I don't know if it was because of too much movement, that bushy brown hair fell apart. It exploded with the surprise of the master.

"Your... I... I mean, I didn't even know you had a grandpa."

"In fact, I didn't even know about this news before last week," Faith shook her head helplessly. The lacquered envelope that was sent along with the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry admission letter had a retro and prosperous appearance. , the content inside has disturbed my mind for the past few days. The Mr. Hank Greengrass in the letter claimed to be his grandfather. When I took back the family, I also attached a photo of my father when he was young.

Compared with the group photos at home, her father seemed young and restrained when she was young, but in her memory, her parents seemed to avoid mentioning things about the older generation.After the sudden accident, the mother did not accept anyone's relief, but moved here alone with her and the rabbi, living a peaceful and simple life.

It's a pity that my mother's health deteriorated and she finally fell into eternal sleep peacefully last Christmas.After learning what happened to her, Hermione forcefully dragged her into the house, who was devastated at the time. The Grangers also expressed their great approval for this, and accompanied her through the most difficult period of time.

"I don't know what is the purpose of his appearance so far." For this relative who suddenly appeared, Faith originally had expectations. She really needed someone to lead her to get in touch with that brand new magical world, but Seeing the 'Faith Greengrass receipt' written on the envelope, I felt a little confused again.

"Maybe, I can accompany you to meet him." Hermione held Faise's hand tightly. She felt that it was obviously a good thing that Faise could find a new family. The other party might just lack some courage, but You can give her a push yourself.

"I don't think this will work," Faith showed a little bit of embarrassment on her face, even she knew that those wizards didn't like to expose their existence to Muggles, although Hermione's proposal moved her very much. , but she still refused, "Thank you Hermione, I think I'll think about that school."

"Well, if you decide to go to that school, remember to tell me quickly," Hermione hesitated, and said, "Actually, I also kept some things from you, because I can't tell you that I will go to a very important agreement. Which school, but I promise I'll write to you every week when I get there, okay?"

"I will definitely." Faith felt her head began to hurt again. If she finally decided to go to Hogwarts, how should she explain to Hermione that what she needs to send her letter may not be put in the mailbox, but It's for Mr. Owl.
