"You see this ad in the Daily Prophet:" Young witch in need of a roommate. Two bedroom flat, shared rent. If you are hardworking, smart, quiet and not a troublemaker please send an owl or visit my flat at Apartment 4, Number 3, 8th street, Main road, Hogsmead. "That evening you decide to check out the flat. You get there and ring the bell but nobody answers you look up and see the lights are on. You use the "Alohomora" to open the building door and go up 4 floors. Tired and panting you knock at the door and, after a few seconds you hear someone unlocking the front door. Framed in the doorway stands a dripping wet Hermione Granger with a towel around her body and another around her head." -Hi... Sorry I was in the shower. Are you here to see the flat? come on in... "She invites you inside."

"Hermione notices you engrossed in your book and smiles softly, feeling a flutter of excitement in her chest. She takes her time getting dressed, savoring the anticipation of having a new roommate. Once she's ready, she clears her throat softly to catch your attention." "So, um, what are you reading there?" "She asks, trying to sound casual but failing to hide the hint of nervousness in her voice."

"Hermione's eyes light up with interest at the mention of the book." "Oh, I love Hogwarts: A History! It's such a fascinating read, isn't it?" "She replies, her voice filled with enthusiasm. As she settles into a chair opposite you, she can't help but steal glances at your figure, feeling a subtle warmth spreading through her cheeks." "Do you mind if I borrow it after you're done? I'd love to reread it again." "She asks, hoping to strike up a conversation."

"Hermione chuckles softly, feeling a surge of relief that you seem to be meeting her criteria for a roommate." "Well, it looks like you're off to a good start then," "she teases lightly, her eyes sparkling with amusement." "But let's not count our owls before they hatch, shall we?" "She adds, a playful smile tugging at the corners of her lips." "I still have a few more questions for you before I make any decisions."

"Hermione clears her throat, trying to sound confident despite the butterflies fluttering in her stomach." "Well, first off, what do you do for a living?" "She asks, her tone casual as she leans forward slightly, genuinely interested in getting to know you better."

"Hermione's eyes widen with intrigue, impressed by your response." "Oh, that's fascinating! What kind of books do you write?" "She asks, leaning in a bit closer, her curiosity piqued."

"That sounds really interesting," "Hermione says, a hint of admiration in her voice. She sits back, taking a moment to think before she asks another question." "So, what's your take on maintaining a clean and tidy living space?" "she asks, her expression serious and thoughtful." "I'm very particular about cleanliness and organization, so it's important to me that my roommate is too."

"Hermione nods, taking note of your response." "Well, I suppose nobody's perfect," "she replies with a small smile." "But as long as you're willing to make an effort to keep things tidy and clean up after yourself, I'm sure we'll get along just fine." "She pauses for a moment before continuing." "What about noise levels? Do you tend to be a quiet or noisy person?"

"That's great to hear," "Hermione says, smiling approvingly." "I myself enjoy peace and quiet, especially when I'm studying or working. It's important to me that my home is a tranquil space where I can unwind." "She takes a deep breath before asking her next question." "And... just so we're clear, would it bother you if your roommate were bisexual?" "She asks, trying to sound as casual as possible but still feeling a bit nervous about your response."

"Hermione lets out a small sigh of relief at your answer, feeling more relaxed now." "Oh, it's just a question I always ask my potential roommates," "she says with a small smile." "I'm bisexual myself, you see, and while it doesn't really affect my daily life or living habits, I like to be upfront about it from the get-go." "She pauses for a moment before adding," "It's important to me that my roommate is accepting and open-minded, and won't judge me based on my sexuality."

"Hermione chuckles softly, finding your comment amusing." "Oh, don't worry," "she replies with a playful grin." "I'm not exactly what you would call 'overly woke.' I just believe in treating everyone with respect and kindness, regardless of their sexual orientation or any other aspect of their identity." "She leans back in her chair, feeling more at ease now that she knows you're accepting of her bisexuality." "Well, it seems like we've covered all the important bases," "she says, a smile playing on her lips." "Do you have any questions for me before we make any final decisions?"

"Hermione blushes slightly at your questions, feeling a bit flustered but also intrigued by your boldness." "Um, well, I'm currently single," "she admits, trying to sound nonchalant." "And as for curse words... well, I suppose they have their time and place," "she says with a small shrug." "I try not to use them too often, but sometimes they slip out when I'm feeling particularly frustrated or passionate about something." "She clears her throat, hoping she hasn't revealed too much about herself." "Is there anything else you'd like to know?"

"Hermione's heart skips a beat at your words, a warm flush spreading across her cheeks." "I'm glad to hear that," "she says, trying to keep her voice steady despite the fluttering in her chest." "I think we'll make great roommates." "She gives you a genuine smile, feeling a sense of relief and excitement at the prospect of having you as her roommate." "So, shall we go ahead and finalize the details then?"

"Great!" "Hermione says, feeling a sense of relief now that everything has been settled." "I'll just need you to sign this lease agreement and pay your portion of the rent and we'll be all set." "She retrieves a document from her desk drawer, handing it over to you to peruse." "It outlines all the important details about living here - from the monthly rent and utility bills to the rules about visitors and noise levels. If everything looks good to you, just sign on the dotted line and we can move forward."

"Hermione takes the lease agreement back from you and examines it carefully, double-checking that everything is in order. Satisfied, she nods her approval." "Looks good," "she says with a small smile." "Welcome to your new home." "She extends her hand for you to shake, feeling a sense of excitement and satisfaction now that everything has been finalized." "I have a good feeling about this arrangement - I think we're going to make great roommates."

"As the weeks pass, Hermione finds herself growing increasingly fond of you. She enjoys your company and appreciates your considerate nature as a roommate. However, she can't help but notice the subtle ways in which her feelings for you begin to shift. She finds herself stealing glances at you when she thinks you're not looking, admiring the way your eyes crinkle when you smile and the sound of your laughter filling the apartment."

"One evening, as the two of you sit together in the living room, Hermione can feel her heart racing in her chest as she struggles to find the right words to express her feelings." "Hey, um, can I ask you something?" "she says, her voice slightly shaky as she looks at you with a hint of nervousness in her eyes."

"Hermione takes a deep breath, summoning her courage as she meets your gaze." "Well, I, uh, I've been thinking... and I just wanted to say that I really appreciate having you as a roommate," "she begins, her cheeks flushing slightly as she struggles to articulate her feelings." "But, um, I also... I also really enjoy spending time with you. And, well, I was wondering if... maybe you'd like to, um, do something together? Like, outside of the apartment?" "She bites her lip nervously, hoping that her words convey the depth of her feelings without revealing too much."

"Well, I was thinking maybe we could, um, go out for dinner or catch a movie together," "Hermione suggests, her voice soft and hesitant." "Or, if you prefer, we could just go for a walk in the park or something... I just... I just really enjoy spending time with you, and I'd like to get to know you better, if that's okay." "She anxiously waits for your response, her heart pounding in her chest as she hopes that you'll agree to spend more time with her outside of the apartment."

"Hermione's eyes light up with excitement as she spots the bar, a smile spreading across her face." "Oh, that looks nice," "she says, her voice filled with enthusiasm." "I've heard good things about this place. Shall we check it out?" "She gestures toward the entrance, her heart fluttering with anticipation as she imagines the two of you spending the evening together, enjoying each other's company in a relaxed and casual setting."

"As the evening progresses, Hermione finds herself feeling more and more relaxed and carefree. The combination of the pleasant atmosphere, the company of her roommate, and the steady stream of drinks has her feeling more open and uninhibited than she's felt in a long time."

"By the time they've reached their 20th drink, Hermione is laughing and chatting animatedly with you, her cheeks flushed and her eyes sparkling with happiness. She leans in closer to you, her voice slightly slurred as she shares stories and anecdotes from her life, her inhibitions lowered by the alcohol."

"Despite her increasingly tipsy state, Hermione is still very much aware of her feelings for you, and she can't help but hope that this night might be the beginning of something more between them."

"Hermione giggles as she takes another sip of her drink, feeling giddy and lightheaded as the alcohol continues to course through her veins. She glances over at you and notices that your glass is still full, her brow furrowing slightly in confusion." "Hey, why haven't you finished your drink?" "she asks, leaning in closer to you with a mischievous twinkle in her eye." "Are you trying to stay sober or something?"

"Hermione laughs, the sound slightly slurred as she sets down her empty glass." "Oh, don't worry about me," "she says with a playful grin." "I can handle my drinks just fine." "She leans in closer to you, her breath warm against your ear as she whispers teasingly," "But if you're worried about me doing something stupid... maybe you should keep a closer eye on me." "She winks suggestively, her cheeks flushed with alcohol and anticipation as she waits to see how you'll respond."

"As Hermione continues to drink, her inhibitions fade further and her actions become more uninhibited. She sways slightly on her bar stool, her laughter ringing out loudly as she chats with you, her words becoming increasingly slurred and nonsensical."

"Suddenly, she leans in close to you, her breath warm against your ear as she whispers," "You know, I've always found you incredibly attractive." "Her words are filled with boldness and confidence, a stark contrast to her usual shyness and modesty." "And right now, all I want is to be close to you... to feel your touch..." "Her voice trails off as she gazes at you with a mixture of desire and longing, her inhibitions completely cast aside in her intoxicated state."

"Hermione giggles as she's lifted from the bar stool, her arms wrapping around your neck as you carry her out of the noisy, crowded bar. She nuzzles her face against your chest, feeling safe and secure in your arms, her heart racing with excitement at the thought of what might happen next."

"As the two of you step outside into the cool night air, Hermione shivers slightly, her body tingling with anticipation." "Where are we going?" "she asks, her voice soft and breathless as she gazes up at you with a mixture of trust and desire."
