AN: Chapter 2, in which Lucy starts to tell us about her lovelife. Also I don't own anything by JK Rowling.

"Before the break I was talking to Lucy Weasley about her new position as Seeker of the Holyhead Harpies and her recent engagement. Now Lucy wants to get rid of the misconceptions about her love life. Should we begin with Mark McLaggen, or go right back to the start; back to Hogwarts?"

"Let's begin with Hogwarts, Maya."

"Before we begin, I do need to check if the men you'll be talking about know about this interview."

"Yes, Maya, I've contacted all of them. Everyone I'll be referring to has given me permission to use their names. So without further ado I'll talk first about Theo Longbottom. Most people will know Theo as my Cousin Lily's husband, who has just had their first child. Theo's always been in love with Lily, ever since first year and in our third year Theo thought that if got a girlfriend he might be able to make Lily notice him and get jealous."

"And that's where you came in?"

"Yes, we had a very large group of friends and Theo asked me, as Lily's cousin, to date him, because, as opposed to other female friends, I'd probably be the one to make her jealous. I only agreed because at the age of fourteen I wanted to help my friend out. Theo and I knew we had no feelings for each other; we only ever held hands. It was a sham relationship. Only it didn't work. After about three months Lily didn't seem jealous or worry about us at all. In fact she started dating our friend Patrick Finnigan, which made me very jealous actually. So, Theo and I decided we would end things because there was no point in continuing it."

"It sounds like you were trying to be a good friend, but things just didn't work out the way you planned."

"No they didn't, but it turns out that Lily was very jealous of our dating, but she kept it well hidden. She and Theo were such good friends that she just wanted to be happy for him, even if it meant seeing him with her cousin. It took Theo years before he got up the courage to ask Lily out, but he did finally do it."

"So I think that brings us to Patrick Finnigan, who you mentioned before, but before we get to him, we'll listen to a classic by Celestina Warbeck."

AN: If you want to read the moment where Theo Longbottom finally gets his courage up to ask Lily out, go and read chapter 10 of my fic Count On Me.
