Hey mate! Just read the article! Thought you might want to check it out, seeing how it's about you and all.

60 Seconds With Harry Potter
By Ginny Weasley

While the rumors of him dating are, in fact, rumors, don't jump for joy too soon, ladies. Harry Potter isn't looking for any more fans. You may know his favorite color is red, that he prefers chocolate cake, and his favorite Quiidditch team is the Cannons, but don't go handing him your bra anytime soon. It is true that in the future he plans to settle down; right now he has much more pressing things on the mind.

After defeating the Dark Lord he is currently sponsoring Lavender Brown's Clothing (opening in Diagon Alley soon.), supporting his friends, avoiding the media, and fighting daily evils.

Harry Potter is currently in Auror training. "Realistically, no matter what century you are in, there is going to be someone who wishes others evil and will act upon it," he confessed. "I can't sit back. I like my job. It keeps me awake, aware, striving, and it helps others. It's nice to know the people closest to me aren't in any danger."

When asked about the publicity received he asked people to tone it down. "I just want to live a normal life." Although he hasn't killed a dark wizard in 5 years, don't expect anything less than great things from Harry Potter.

I saw the article today. It wasn't the best portrayal of you, but I must admit it was better then that one time Rita Skeeter accused you of owning a strip club. How have ya been, old buddy old pal? Seems like we haven't talked in awhile.

I have taken matters into my own hands. I am now setting up my sister and Harry. By the way, did I tell you that you looked really pretty in that dress yesterday.

What is up with you and my sister, anyway? Should I be nervous?

She interviewed me! You know that! Besides, if anyone should be worried, it should be me. I'm the one that has to deal with your accusations.

I know this is bloody amusing to you and all. But I am trying to do you a favor. Are you, or are you not currently dating someone.

I love how Harry has finally come out of his shell now that this war is over and all but, how dense can one be?

Subject: Ask yourself.
Considering how it took you 10 years to ask me out (which you still haven't, actually), I don't think you should be pointing fingers, Ronald Weasley. And yes, you told me about the dress about 52 times. Why don't you let Ginny and Harry figure things out? Judging by the article, this isn't going to be the last time they have to see one another.

It's strange actually. He mentioned Ginny today. So obviously they are getting closer then they care to admit.

Ps.It only took me so long because I am a naturally reserved person.Speaking of which, Can you be ready at 8 tonight?

Subject: You? Reserved? HAH!
This is coming from the man who got up and yelled "up yours, Snape" at the Leaving Feast.
