WIZARD AMONG VAMPIRES

It's been 3 weeks since the Ministry announced to the wizarding world that the war is finally over and that their Hero, Mr. Harry Potter had finally defeated You-Know-Who and yet Harry is here looking at his reflection on the mirror, already starting to doubt his age. There are stubbles visible, his hair is as messy as always and he really looks as pleasant as a house-elf. He then sighed and started cleaning himself, he had been on a robotic mode for the past weeks, it's the only way he survived the gruelling interviews, invitations from Ministry officials and especially the non-stop mails that made the No. 12 Grimauld Place look like Hogwarts during the mail days.

The only communication he appreciated was from his two best mates who really understand what he has gone to and of course those who he considers his family.

The newly established couple is coming over tonight and they are going to discuss about their plan as well as the letter he received via an owl that day.

The letter had been a shock that it had awakened him from his robotic mode and scrambled to the sofa before tearing the edge of the envelope. The words are written with a silvery green ink and in a fine cursive penmanship he knows well.

Dear Harry,

If you, my boy, by any chance are reading this letter, then it means that one of my greatest fears had apparently taken its shape. Though I know that I am to be blamed to the large part of burden that you had carried in your very young life, I plead that you are not to throw away this letter before giving it a chance.

I don't want you to think that even in my death; I am still trying to plan your life. I want, even need you to think that you have a choice and that I am only giving you one of the options that you may or may not take. I don't want you to think that I am doing this in hopes to redeem myself for I know that those mistakes I committed upon you are unforgivable even if I say that it is for the greater good for there is no excuse in what I had done in your life. Though again, if asked to redo the past, I would still commit the same mistakes for it is what I stood for. However, that is not the point of this letter; this letter is to give you an option on what you want to do when you think you've arrived at a dead end for I know that you are a survivor and that you would overcome Riddle and his friends.

I have spoken to a friend of mine that is currently living in a peaceful town in America and he had agreed that if you, by any slitter of a chance, decided to take my offer of you taking a "vacation" in there, then you are open anytime to contact him. He told me that he knows of a little town that might offer you some quiet and away from any muggle city noises or the prying eyes of wizarding community.

Harry, you might contest to this statement, but I know you or at least I assume that I know a part of you and that part in which I assumed to know is craving for a peaceful life after all those hardships you have gone under.

As I have told you, you have a choice and that this is not to redeem my self but rather an offer from your barmy old friend.

And to reassure you, my old friend Rimmwald, had sworn to secrecy for I am assuming yet again that you prefer to not be on the limelight. I ask you not to worry Harry for even if the American's wizarding community knows your name, the town where in Rimmwald is currently living is really a far away distant from the centre of the community and that Seattle, I am not quite sure if I got that right, had no organized community in it and my old friend said that he only met with a witch and a wizard who happened to take their holiday there.

I am going to repeat this again as I have repeated above, it is your choice Harry, my boy. I want you to take a path where in you may commit mistakes but when you look back, you know that you regret nothing. That may seem to be a hard path but when you reach the age where in you have experienced and committed gruelling mistakes, and then you might understand.

With this, I am going to close my letter to you and hope that you had the patience to read and consider the rumblings of an old man.

A.D

Harry felt incredulous at the contents of the letter though when being truly honest with him self, he had blamed Dumbledore in some of those loses and the pains he had felt and is still carrying. Even with those feelings, he still can not really remain angry or hurt with the old professor because as powerful as Dumbledore is, he is quite sure that he had been carrying his own pains in his long life as well. And with only that, Harry likes to think that he too quite understood even a portion to the old man's life and his decisions.

After reading the letter, he had flooed Hermione and Ron to come to his place. He really doesn't need their opinions because as Dumbledore had emphasized many times, it is his choice, it is more of a habit actually and even, dare he say, a comfort to know that he still have them.


The two had come tumbling that night, or more like Ron stumbling on his feet and bumping to Hermione causing the poor girl to tumble over his carpeted floor making him chuckle and at the same time realize how hoarse his throat felt.

"Ron, I swear if you continue abusing me I would put Ginny's hex on you!"

"Sorry Mione." Ron's voice at the moment was rather pitiful for his height.

"Oh Harry! How have you been?" Hermione hugged him the moment she set his eyes on his form ignoring Ron who is just getting up.

"Hey, you alright mate?" Ron seconded while he just smiled and nodded still patting Hermione's back.

"Yeah, I'm fine, how about the celebrity couple?" He joked making Hermione roll her eyes and sitting herself in the sofa.

Ron just gave him a light punch on the shoulder before following his girlfriend.

"Ugh, those bloody reporters are really annoying and you think Skeeter is the worst." Hermione said fixing her hair with an annoyed look.

"Yeah, you should have seen how they are going ballistic just because they spotted us in jewellery store. I say the stores are the one getting the benefits here." Ron grumbled but cast a sidelong glance at Hermione making Harry smile because he knows Ron's plan.

"So, why'd you flooed us Harry?" Hermione then look up with a questioningly and slightly worried look making Harry roll his own eyes at her.

He then handed her Dumbledore's letter not worrying about privacy because at the moment and most in the past, his privacy usually included the two.

After the two read the letter, they looked at each other, making Harry quite envious for he has no one to share the same look. They then both turned to him but Hermione is the one who spoke.

"What do you think about this letter Harry?" She asked carefully.

Harry shrugged looking straight the wall opposite to where he is currently sitting, "I think I understood him enough to say that I believe him on the "not planning my life" thing." He said with his hands doing the quote sign.

"Though I am actually contemplating on maybe grabbing the chance, I don't know yet, I still haven't decided my life that far you know. It's all "how to escape Voldemort" or "How to defeat Voldemort" that had been going over my head for the past years not really considering that I may have a life after that git." He said nonchalantly though he knows that his friends understood what he really meant.

"Yeah, it's actually quite awkward after all those… I mean, we talked about our dreams and such but we really hadn't talk about what we are going to do after You-err V-Voldemort, it's like... it's like…" But Ron trailed from his struggled understanding not quite having the courage to continue but the other two nodded nonetheless. It's like we are not going to survive was the hanging words.

"You know that whatever choice or decision you make, we are still going to support you right Ron?" Hermione smiled at Harry then turned her head to Ron who nodded.

"I know but I don't even know what my other options are!" Harry cried out with a pained and exasperated expression on his face.

"Well, there is always the Auror career…" Ron yet again trailed while Harry shook his head.

"You know I am going to avoid any fighting at the moment, though I might consider that one in the future, maybe far, far future if I can help it."

"Well, how about finishing our year at Hogwarts first." Hermione suggested with a hopeful look while both Ron and Harry winced.

"I don't know about going back to Hogwarts Mione. It's like, I mean it doesn't feel like Hogwarts anymore, ever since Dumbledore died, it seemed like it's lacking some of its magical appeal to me. Maybe I am still grieving for his death I guess."

"Yeah, I understand what you mean, maybe I too am grieving for the headmaster's even though we really aren't that close." Ron said while shrugging his shoulder while Hermione smack him on his head and gave him a horrified look.

"What?" Ron looked at his girlfriend with a wounded and puzzled face, "I am not going to pretend and say I am close to the old headmaster. I mean, I am really baffled at his decisions or even just him sometimes that I even started questioning his mentality. Hey stop smacking me!" Ron took a hold of Hermione's hand to prevent any more abuse.

Harry can't help but chuckle at their antics. He is really happy that even though he knows they too are carrying the same pains that he carries from the war, that at least they got each other to share the burden. He wouldn't ruin it by showing how great his own pain is starting to affect him.

"Then why don't you try it mate?" Ron suddenly looks up at Harry and Harry can't be quite sure but there is a glint in his best mate's eyes telling him that Ron actually thinks that it maybe a good choice.

Hermione herself frowned at Ron but didn't argue; maybe he isn't the only one who saw the conviction on Ron's eyes.

"I'm actually considering it." Harry answered.

"I wouldn't be really happy since you would be living continents away from us but if you think you could be happy Harry, never doubt about our support yeah?" Ron said his once in a blue moon lines.

"Thank you Ron, I know I didn't make a mistake when I declare you my best mate even though I am starting to doubt it sometimes." Harry said grinning at the gaping Ron who after only a second tackled him.

"Why you pompous, cheeky prat! You think you can get away with that?"

Hermione just watched the two with an amused grin of her own.
