Bill
When Bill walked into Grimmauld Place, his family was ecstatic! Molly immediately made Bill's favorite dessert and introduced him to the other people in the house. Sirius and Remus welcome him along with Harry and Hermione. After the celebration is over, the clock reads 11 pm. Molly tells everyone to rest up because they are going shopping the next day. At around 12:30 am, Bill can't sleep because of jet-lag so he wanders down to the kitchen to get some hot chocolate. When he steps into the kitchen, he sees Hermione drinking some hot chocolate and reading a book. As he tries to not disturb her, he hits a loose floorboard.
"Shit!" Hermione, in her haste, spilled her hot chocolate on her lap.
"I'm sorry, Hermione. I didn't mean to startle you. Scourgify!" The mess clears and Bill begins making some more hot chocolate.
"That's alright. I got lost in reading that I didn't expect anyone to be up right now."
"Jet-lag is a bitch." They laugh. "What book are you reading?"
"Oh it's just a silly Muggle romance novel."
"Really? Which one?" Bill hands her a mug of hot chocolate and holds his hand out for the book, which she gives. "You read Muggle romance novels?"
"Oh yes! I am a banker in the French Gringotts. I have a lot of time on my hands, especially when I hold banker's hours." Hermione giggles and takes a drink.
"Who are your favorites?"
"I span more than romance, but the Harlequin Romance novels are SO good! Others are Mary Higgins Clark, Debbie Macomber and Richard Paul Evans."
"Oh I love Richard's books! My favorite is Grace."
After spending two hours talking, Mrs. Weasley sends them back to bed. Bill and Hermione spend the rest of holidays sharing evenings of Harlequin romance and hot chocolate.
