"Harry? Is that Teddy screaming the place down?" Hermione calls from the doorway as she takes her black coat off, hanging it on the coat hanger by Harry's front door.
No Hermione it's me screaming. Of course it's Teddy. I'm not stupid enough to say that out loud though, I mean I know she's my best friend and all but to get on the wrong side of Hermione is like digging your own grave and burying yourself alive.
"Yeah in the kitchen, 'Mione"
She's come to pick up her books I'm guessing, straight from work by the looks of her clothes. She's changed a lot since school. I guess we've all grown up, I mean we are 20 after all. Ron and I continued to grown in height and now tower over Hermione, she reaches up to my shoulder level at the most. Ron's still ginger of course and his hair is still as shaggy but he's not as idiotic as he used to be, more responsible now that Luna's pregnant with their first child. They're married now, god it seems like that day was only yesterday, and they were both so happy. Still are.
Me? Well I continue to be single despite my dashing good looks. Or it might have something to do with only being wanted because of my status as the boy-who-lived. I guess being an auror helps boost my status even more. Teddy lives with me now. He's 3 this year, God they grow up so fast.
"Harry, are you daydreaming while that child is sitting there screaming? How could you ignore the poor child that way?" Hermione scolds as she lifts Teddy out of the highchair and balances him on her hip as she walks off towards the cupboard.
But Hermione has defiantly grown the most. Maybe not in height. Her hair falls in sleek curls now, a good way down her back if she'd ever let them out of the ponytail she constantly wears it in. She's got more curves than she did in school but maybe not as much as other girls. She's pretty skinny too, because she doesn't eat unless she's here in grimould place. Says she doesn't find time being centre of the auror work force. She's the brains obviously.
She's not the same as she used to be before the war though. Never went back for her parents, she figured they'd be better off without her. Tore her apart inside I reckon. Her smile doesn't reach her eyes anymore. We've tried to help her. Ron and I. didn't do much good though.
"Harry can you reach Teddy's bottle for me? I'm a bit on the short side, and don't even think of making a sarcastic comment about my height"
Damn, she knows me too well
"Yes of course I could hep you Hermione" I say in the politest voice I can muster. At the sight of his bottle Teddy finally quietens down, thank heavens. "You do wonders with that child, Hermione." I say shaking my head in amazement.
Teddy adores her. She's like his favourite aunty even though they're not technically related.
Aunty 'Mione. Ha that's funny.
"Right, I'm going to put Teddy to bed seeing as your still in your own world"
As she walks past with Teddy and a bottle in her hand she bumps her hip against mine so that I stumble side wards.
"Hermione Granger, getting a bit violent are we?" I joke
Only its not her aggressiveness that worries me.
It's the electricity that shoots through my body when we touch.
