"You could have gone with him." Hermione told him.
"Yea and I would have been bored." Severus told her.
Black and Lupin kept their eyes on the two teens. They didn't trust or like Snape when he was a kid and now that his teen self was back, there was no way they trusted him now.
Draco was watching as well. He couldn't believe his favorite teacher was flirting with the one girl he had a crush on that lasted more then two weeks.
*********************************
Ron watched from above the small scene unraveling from his best friend and his two worse enemies. Why does everyone like her now, he wondered since he had pretty much had a crush on her since his second year after she had been petrified. And then in their fourth year he realized how beautiful she really was and new his feelings for her were true. "I'll be back." He called to the guys who groaned and complained about his leaving during the beginning of the game. He swooped down as he saw smiling Lupin and Black at him as he came behind Hermione and wrapped his arms around her.
Hermione jumped slightly and turned her head. "Ron!"
"Come fly with me." He said softly.
"I hate flying."
"Just for a few minutes I promise." He said picking her up as she squealed and set her on his broom and took off into the air.
"Ronal Bilius Weasley if you don't put me on the ground right no I'll owl your mother about this!"
"Then owl her." He said wrapping her arms gently around her body. "I'm not going to let you fall Hermione, I promise." He whispered to her.
Hermione had her eyes clenched tightly and gripped the broom as if her life depended on it. "Ron pleaseā¦"
"Hermione just open your eyes. You can see everything from up here. The Whomping Willow, the lake, the castle, the Quidditch Pitch. You can even see the squid in the lake."
Hermione slowly opened her eyes and gasped. Half meant about how high they were and the other half was on how right Ron was. She looked towards the lake. "It looks more beautiful at night with the moon shining on it."
"It does?" She asked as he nodded.
"This isn't so bad is it?" He asked resting his head on her shoulder. "Flying it like being free. You can go places you can't go by walking and see things from a different point of view. One night I'll take you up with me and we can watch the moon over the lake. Or even watch a sunset together." He breathed in her scent of the vanilla perfume she always used "Would you like to?"
"I think I would." She said.

"What is it Albus?" Snape asked him.
"With what you told me of their adding dragons blood to their potion the only way we could get them home is if they conjured the same potion the same way they did so."
"Perhaps some sort of after-effect."
"Precisely." Albus said smiling with a small twinkle in his eyes. "Their memories will have to be removed of their time here, for safety reasons. We can not allow anything to change."
"I understand. And the students?"
"I will give them a choice. Harry may be the most reluctant to give up his memory due to the fact of his father."
"I believe Miss Granger may be as well."
"We shall see."
~Voting of who to be with Hermione~
Harry: 23

Sirius: 38

So far only five people remain on the voting. I will be narrowing it down next time I update which I hope will be next week or perhaps the week after.
And yes Ron's middle name is Bilius. It's after his deceased uncle.
