Continued from where we left off….

"What Ron?" said Hermione minutes later.

" Hermione I think that I'm in love with you" whispered Ron in her ear.

Ron softly kissed Hermione on the lips and she kissed back. Little did they know a crowd was watching them releaved that the two lovers had finally gotten together. After they broke apart Hermione said one last thing before they ahd to leave…

" I'm in love with you two, Ronald Weasley." Whispered Hermione back.


(Outside the Ministry)

"Okay here we are, now…um visitors entrance." Spoke Mrs. Weasley. "Ok lets all see if we can squeeze in here"

"Ouch!" Screeched Ginny. "RON, YOU CLUTZ, YOU STAMPED ON MY FOOT!"

"Sorry." Said a muffled Ron, whose face was pressed up against the glass of the telephone booth.

"All right there, Ginny?" Asked Hermione.

"Yeah, fine just fine" Growled Ginny.

"Ok Harry dear, can you dial two four four two please." Asked Mrs. Weasley.

Harry dialed the number, and a cool female voice spoke.

"Welcome to the Ministry of Magic. Please state your name and business." Spoke the female voice. (from book numero cinco…5)

"Erm…." Said Mrs. Weasley. "Molly Weasley, Ginny Weasley, Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, and Harry Potter here to visit relatives in the Ministry."

"Thank you." Said the cool voice. "Please attach these badges to your robes." No sooner had the voice said that, had the badges slid out of a metal chute, where coins would normally come out of.

"You are all required to a search and to submit your wand for registration at the Security Desk, which is at the far end of the Atrium" Spoke the cool voice one last time.

After all of the occupants of the telephone booth had attached the badges to their robes, not a moment later had the start to descend to the underground location of the Ministry of Magic.

"Ok dears lets move along to the security desk so we can visit your father and brothers." Whispered Mrs. Weasley.


After the visitors had left the security desk, after a thorough search and registration of wands, they began thee journey to the Weasley's (that worked at the Ministry) new office suite.

Ginny spotted the suite first. The door read Bill Weasley Head of the Department of International Magical Cooperation, Charlie Weasley Head of the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures, Percy Weasley Senior Undersecretary to the Minister, and Arthur Weasley Minister of Magic.

As they walked in Harry and Hermione gasped. The suite was very plush with lovely tapestries and painting on the walls and vases full with beautiful flowers.

As soon as Mr. Weasley realized who came in his face broke into a smile.

" Why hello Harry, Hermione, how are you?"

"Mr. Weasley you're the new Minister of Magic!" bellowed Harry. Which echoed through the huge entrance. "But why didn't you all tell me?" "I've been with you guys for a little while now but were you never going to tell me?

"Harry don't be such a prat." Laughed Ron. "We wanted to surprise you and Hermione together"


Meanwhile Hermione just gaped and looked from Ron to Mrs. Weasley to Mr. Weasley to Harry to Ginny and to who just walked out of their offices, Bill, Charlie and Percy.

"Hello Hermione, Harry" Said Bill.

"Hello Bill" chorused Harry and Hermione.

"How are you guys?" Asked Charlie.

"Fine, you? Said Harry and Hermione.

"Nice to see you again, the both of you." Said Percy. "And Harry, I'm sorry about that letter I wrote last year. I was out of line and it was very immature of me."

"Don't think on it" Said Harry.

After all of the welcome's and the tour of the extremely large office suite Fred and George arrived.

"Fred! George! My Saviors for torturing Umbridge!" Yelled Harry

"Hey guys how are you, how are Weasley's Wizard Wheezes coming along?" Asked Hermione.

"One, we're doing great." Said Fred.

"Two, the business is coming along great too." Said George.

"Three, Harry, we're glad you liked our goods. You, might we say have a lifetime-non paying guarantee since you're the donator to the adolescent Weasley's Wizard Wheezes." Said Fred.

"Thanks guys, really I'm still very glad I gave it to you. It was put to the Anti-Umbridge cause." Said Harry between breaths of laughter.

"Anytime mate, we're glad to put people we hate in misery." Said George proudly.


" I think that it's about time we start ordering our lunch." Spoke Mr. Weasley. "Or we'll be here forever, and trust me I know at least two Weasley men here that can't wait more than a minute more, otherwise they're about to lose their temper."

" Right you are dad" Said Bill and Ron.

" Ok let me write what we all want on one of these memos so we can get our food up here A.S.A.P" Said Charlie. "Ok lets see that'll be four steak and Kidney pies, two Yorkshire Puddings with bouillabaisse, two mince pies (2 people can share 1), and one salad for mum." "Ok I think that we have it all set, off you go then."


The memo set off towards Weasley's Office suite kitchen, where the cook was preparing for eleven meals. Finally after about five minutes of waiting the food arrived, and their owner began to eat.

"Ferah hoo ood" Said Ron while chewing and bits of steak and kidney pie flew out of his mouth and on his lap.

"Wow five years of hearing Ron talk while eating, I actually understood that!" Said and amazed Hermione

"Well what'd he say then Ms. Smarty-Pants?" Asked Ginny jokingly.

" He said "very good food" in his own language anyway" Boasted Hermione.

"Mum, me, Bill & Percy are done for the day." Spoke Charlie. "So is it all right if we hang around at home for a while?"

"Sure, but how're we supposed to get everyone home?" Said Mrs. Weasley. "We traveled by floo powder and I really don't fancy having to go home that way after just eating lunch."

"Well I can take just Hermione in my car." Said Charlie. "It's only a two seater don't you known."

"And I can take Harry, Ginny, Ron, & you mum" Spoke Bill.

" And we can apparate" Said Fred and George.

"And so can we" Said Percy and Mr. Weasley

" All right then" Said Mrs. Weasley. "I'll see you all at home then."

" Come on Hermione, we're not in too much of a rush to get to The Burrow" Said Charlie. " So we can take the scenic route home."

" Okay" Said Hermione cheerfully.

(Hermione thinking)


So we were the first one's to leave the office suite. After we left we headed down to Charlie's car. We were riding along the long winding roads when it hit me. I never knew how much Charlie and I never really talked before this.

" So Charlie…." I started "Do you miss being in Romainia with all the different species of dragons?" "I mean having dragons in England is very much illegal, it's bad enough the wizarding world is trying oh so very hard to hide ourselves."

Charlie nodded his head agreeing with what I was saying and trying to take in every word. Dwelling on every sound that came from my mouth. It seems as if the world around has stopped moving and it's just us having a heart to heart talk.

I guess he must be quite used to this seeing as he knows the romainian language and he's used to people talking quite fast. Is it me or can I see what is inside the real Charlie. Behind the animal handler. Behind the fact that he's in really good shape and I can count every muscle that is shown throught his extremely tight shirt.

"But knowing that the chance of you going back to romainia is very small, doesn't that bother you at all?" " Or would you rather stay here with your family?" "I mean sure you get to deal with all different types of animals here but it isn't the same or is it?

"Wait a moment I don't fancy Charlie, no I can't I'm in love with Ron, right?" I said not knowing that I was speaking aloud and every syllable that I pronounced he took to heart. "Hermione I think that you need time to think, just clear your head, I think it's a bit stuffy in here anyway." I paused for a moment.

" Oh my goodness I think I'min love with Ron, but wishing he was more similar toCharlie" " The way his biceps are so muscular and his smile is so heartwarming" "And just the inviting look of him makes me want to go up to him and give him a hug & kiss"

As Charlie looked at me with a blank expession on his face that read did I hear you right?
