"Ron I tell you noth..."
"Harry you can't tell the best friend nothing is different.I can tell by looking at you.Hell,you have on a shirt this morning.Good boy.'Mione is proud too.Her little 'Arry all growed up,"Ron said falling onto Harry's couch,and not letting him get a word in sideways.
"Ron,as my best friends,you and Hermione should just leave me alone 'bout it,"Harry replied following his friends suit onto the soft sofa."Just be happy that I'm a bit happy.Is that too much to ask?"
"But Harry this isn't one of those things we leave you alone on.That's like if you start eating eggs on your oatmeal,that
I'll leave you alone on.But not this.Your happy,maybe not fully but whatever has you this worked up is bound to finish what it started,"Ron stated as Hermione appered in the fireplace,covered in soot.
"Harry when was the last time you cleaned your bloody fireplace?I say,its worse then mine!"she shouted as she stumbled from the harth.
"Hey,'Mione,tell Harry you wanna know what's been making him happy for the last five days,"Ron stated,before Harry had time to react.
"Yes,Harry do tell.Got yourself a girl?Oh pleaseeeee tell me!"
"Yeah Harry,tell."Ron added,as smug smile spread across his face.
"Fine,but you asked,"Harry said as he took a deep breath.
"I met this girl named Lainey the other day in London.She's great.I even helped her get a flat two floors down.She's an art student,an American.But..."
"But what?"Both Ron & Hermione asked as one.
"She's muggle."
Silence.

"I miss you so much,Tennessee isn't the same without you Ells."
"I know Les,I miss you guys too.But School is going good so far,and I go tomarrow for my job interview.I think things are going to pan out after all.You know London's not that bad a place,"Elly replied though the phone.
"Sure,little miss city girl now.You don't need all us ol' country folks no more,"Leslie replied,putting on her best 'red-neck' slang.
Back in her normal tone,Les added,"I'm happy for you really.I mean,a year ago when you told us you'd choosen the school in London I didn't believe you'd make it.But I'm so proud.I mean,we made it though High School,and this is just the next big step."
"So,met any new people...guys...while away in good ol' London?"
Silence.
"Ells?"
"Well...its kinda funny that you ask.I have kinda met someone."
"How do you kinda meet someone?"
"His name's Harry.He's great,got me this flat and everything..."
"Wait..what did you just say?"
"Harry."
"No,after that."
"Flat?"
"Yeah...okay continue,I'll leave your odd lingo alone for now."
"Anyways,He,get this,works for the Goverment.Can you believe it.I mean,I wouldn't have had a clue.This good looking guy just runs me over on the sidewalk and BAM,I'm getting coffee,a home,and maybe even a job."
"Sounds good to me,but then again,anything I don't have to work for is good to me.So,whats he look like,'good-looking' doesn't tell me much."
"He's kinda on the tall side.I'd say 6' 2 or better.Black hair,green eyes.Glasses.Awesome build.I think he looks like someone thats played sports.Either that or he just really likes to work out.Whatever it is,I hope he doesn't stop any time soon."
"Sounds fine.When I come down,can I meet him?"
"Hon,I'm not dating the man,I just got to know him for pete's sake.But yeah if he still lives two floors up,whatever.You can have at it."
"Listen Les,I hate to do this and cut you short but.I have a lunch thing with Harry.He's going to show me some short cuts and stuff.Talk to you tonight?Round 9 or so?"
"Yeah sure.Listen,have fun.Don't run him off like you did Adam after he asked you to prom.Sorry babe but you don't have the dating gene.Love ya.Byes."
"Okay,I'll have fun and no worries.No scaring him off.Got it.Love ya too.Byes."
