Wow!-- Yesterday was -- I'm going to make sure we go out to someplace fancy tonight -- Wait, I'm getting ahead of myself.
I went all the way to the Burrow and spent two hours with Ron -- coincidentally, Hermione arrived an hour after I did. It was nice seeing them again, and they had a lot to tell me. Somehow Hermione had become the assistant head of the Department for Muggle Artifacts at the ministry, and Ron had ... well ... become the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor after being appointed to the position by Minister for Magic Bones (Aunt of Susan Bones).
Susan had seen Ron perform well in the DA and recommended him to her aunt. I don't exactly think Percy or Professor Mcgonagall are very happy about the decision, but he seems to be doing well. Three things that've really helped him are the fact that he's had the class from so many different perspectives, the fact that he's fought Death Eaters one-on-one. and the fact that it's not a difficult class to teach to anyone but Crabbes or Goyles, who are still students.
I saw Ginny too, and I'm really glad she got over that infantile crush she had years ago. Percy is still a git, Fred and George are still the richest twins in the wizarding world, and Mr. Weasley retired and is now living off of Fred and George's earnings. It's an unusual family to say the least, but it's not a poor one anymore.
Well, now for the real news. While I was flying to Luna's, I saw her flying nearby and I caught up with her. We flew side-by-side for a while, and after a few minutes I suggested that we fly like we used to. She agreed, and we landed so that she could switch brooms since mine was a Firebolt.
After she got on, I kicked off, and we flew together in circles until Luna asked me to stop for a second. She said she didn't feel safe and asked me to put my arms around her waist. When I did she turned her head and said that she'd really missed me. I told her I'd never go that long without seeing her again, but she just laughed lightly and said that was the second promise I'd given her that I wouldn't be able to keep.
Then after a pause, I told her I loved her too much to be without her.
And so last night we did things neither of us had ever done before. And under the stars last night she told me she'd never loved anyone as much as she loved me.
