I have a duty to my students, especially towards Gryffindor students, seeing as I am their Head of House. I have seen many romances in the walls of this great institution, including James and Lily Potter. Now, you may be wondering what has me speaking to you about love and relationships, and, let me assure you, I don't quite know myself. It might have been what I saw early this morning as I was checking the common room for stragglers.
I don't usually stay up until 3:30 in the morning, but I was. I went about my business checking the common room, when I saw Miss Granger asleep at the table in the corner. I was about to send her off to bed when Mr. Potter appeared in the stairway of the boys' dormitories. I saw him look at Miss Granger and smile quite fondly whilst he shook his head at her sleeping form. I never knew love could be found among people as young as fifteen until I saw that look in Mr. Potter's eyes. The look of utter adoration and dedication for another individual that is rare, even among adults. As he made his way across the room to Miss Granger, I watched with great curiosity. I saw him observe her for a few moments the put a hand on her back.
He surprised me, I wasn't expecting his to speak, you see, when he said, "Hermione, wake up." When she didn't, he sighed, "'Mione, come on up to bed." Mr. Potter grinned when he heard her mumble something. "I know you're tired but tomorrow's Saturday you can sleep in."
"To tired to move," Miss Granger grumbled. I saw Mr. Potter smile the smile filled with love and I realized he doesn't know that he loves her.
"Hermione, come on, now. Off to bed with you," Miss Granger got up and walked to the stairs leaning heavily on Mr. Potter. "If you're in the common room before 8:00 tomorrow, I won't let you in the library for a week." Miss Granger rolled her eyes but walked up the stairs.
None of the player in the game of love has had the look in their eyes that Mr. Potter looks at Miss Granger with. They love each other more than most people can comprehend and they don't realize what's right in front of them! I've seen a lot of great romances in these old halls, I don't think any are going to compare to the one Mr. Potter and Miss Granger are in.
