"Why do you love me?" she asked him

He turned to look at her, peering over his paper- "I just do, dear", he then went back to reading his paper.

"Really, please, tell me, why do you love me,? Is it just friendship we have? What is it?"

He thinks for a minute, chewing on his bottom lip-something that always makes her smile in fondness at the man in front of her

"I can't really explain why I love you- I just do- I love the way you look at me, the way that your eyes still cloudy from sleep brighten when they look at me I love the fact that every time someone mentions your name my heat starts to race, I love coming home to see you every day- it's the thing I always look forward to, I love you because you make sure that I eat enough fruit and vegetables and that i'm always wrapped u p warmly before I head to the ministry, I love everything about you; I love spending hours in dusty old bookshops searching for a book that you will love and I love imagining the way your eyes will light up when you see it. "

"I love the fact that little Joshua over there has my red hair and your chocolate brown eyes and I love the way you look when you hold him in your arms, I love it when you dress up and make all the men stare at you-I love the fact that i'm the one you walk over to- but I especially love it when I come home from work and you're in a pair of old grey trousers and t-shirt with a smudge of flour on your nose trying to whip up one of your mums recipes. I love the fact that you accept me for who I am, and you nag me to get things done. I love the fact that we don't need to to constantly talk, we can have a comfortable silence, I love the way your arms feel when they're wrapped around me when we dance, I love everything about you Hermione"

He looked at her then, her eyes were filled with tears, slowly she unfolded herself from the chair and padded across the room to him and kissed his ear and whispered "And I love every minute I'm with you Percy"
