The war had ended and the wizarding world was slowly getting back on track every student at Hogwarts, went and retoke their last year due to disturbance, aka. the war.
Harry and Ginny got back together and, after a lot of publicity, finally got to have a private life away from Rita Skeeter. Ron found that his heart was in a place he never thought possible, stuck to Luna Lovegood, whom he started dating shortly after the war was finished. Hermione, still single, worked part time with the Headmistress, Minerva McGonagall, to get all prohibitory werewolf regulations banded, which lead to Remus Lupin teaching Defense against the Dark Arts again. Severus Snape, who, after being cleared of all charges, retook the position of Potions Master.
Harry and Ginny spent more time with each other, and therefore less time with their friends, as did Ron and Luna which meant that everybody was in a relationship except Hermione, even though she'd never admit it to anyone, she didn't like being so alone, she would often dream that she'd have someone to call her own, someone who, like her, was intelligent but more importantly had passion and heart. Someone romantic, but casual. Strong, but had weaknesses. Emotional, but not overly so. A good student, but had a michief streak. Intelligent, but fun. Her, so called, perfect man. Unfortunatly she had never met anyone like this, at least no one her own age. There was Remus Lupin, the man who she had had a crush on for the past four years, but there was no way he would ever even consider her in a romantic way. She was sure she was destined to be alone.
