A/N: Hey lovelies, here is the next letter for you to enjoy! Just so you know I am leaning more and more towards the next three installments of this to be articles from Theo about Smith's trial. Hope you all enjoy this!

If you enjoy the letter, please drop me a review! I've been attempting to work ridiculously hard on A Series of Moments, the companion fic to this, so that I can actually make some headways on it. That is why this is not updating super frequently.

Love always,

My darling Draco,

I was flipping through the latest file that the Minister sent me. It looks as though I will be in London for the trial. Apparently he wants every Ministry employee to be closeby. To quote his letter, we are strongly encouraged to attend the trial. Which means he expects to see each of our faces there. He claims it is for our safety. At least he's finally taking our safety on the matter into consideration no matter how insincere it may be. It's about damn time.

I wonder how crazy the media coverage of the trial will be. I know Theo is planning to be there for the Prophet and I'm sure Luna will be there to support Neville, but also to get a report for the Quibbler. At least we won't have to worry about Rita starting rumors of her own. I'm sure this will be a trial for the ages. It's been a long time since the Ministry has made a bust this large.

As much as I would love to, I don't think we would be able to get away with playing hooky for a month. I do think that the Minister would figure something out by then. Especially when he realizes that he hasn't gotten reports from either of us for a chunk of time. He's not as obstinate as we like to think that he is. The old man is really quite observant for his age.

Luckily we will get to see each other for the duration of Smith's trial, something that could very well go on for a month. We'll keep our fingers crossed anyways. It would be nice to actually live in our flat like a married couple for the first time in a long while. Especially when we aren't hurrying off to work on a case.

I am looking forward to walking hand in hand through the park basking in the sunshine. We can take the time to stop and smell the roses and listen to the birds sing. Maybe we can even have a picnic in the park. Oh wouldn't that be fun? I can picture it now. I can't wait to get home to you.

The tulips here are gorgeous this time of year. I wish you were here to see them with me. I wish we would have been able to go on this whole adventure together. I think it might have been beneficial for both of us, but alas the Minister seems to know what's best for his employees.

I am counting the days until I leave here and come back home. The owl is waiting to take this letter to you.

I will see you soon my love,

Hermione
