Chapter 1: The One With Betty Crocker
Diagon Apartments, Apartment 6B: Home To Mr. Harry Potter and his fiance', Miss. Ginny Weasley
After the Final Battle was long finished, and Harry Potter had moved into an apartment that he shared with Ginny, his fiance', it was a rare ocassion that he felt anything in his life was less than satasfactory. However, on this particualir day, he had come to the realization that in all of his years with the Dursleys (the youngest of which, to his surprise, still came around for a visit every so often) he had never had a muggle cake. And that is how he found himself in the kitchen, covered in flour, with a Betty Crocker cake mix and an oven pre-heated to 360°.
Harry really felt that he had done a great job with his cake. It turned out that the recipe had been wrong, because the batter only filled half of the cake pan, but he had quickly fixed the mistake and now had the correct amount of batter in the pan, which was about to go into the oven when the phone rang.
"Hello," Harry said when he picked it up. The greeting from the other end only consisted of a honking sound and a wail, so he asked again. "Hello?"
"Oh, Harry!" Hermione sobbed, "I'm sorry, it's just--"
"It's ok, 'Mione--"
" 'Mione! That's what he called me!"
It was another Ron problem. "Hold on, I'm giving the phone to Ginny."
Harry handed the phone to is fiance', who had just showed up beside him, and quickly Apparated out of his apartment to see what in the world Ronald had done this time.
