Missing Her

It was two in the morning and Harry couldn't sleep. He had had a long day at work and for some reason all of his tiredness was making him unable to sleep. He lay on his bed by the window. He could hear Ron's loud snoring from all the way down the hall. Harry just stared up at the dark ceiling and a million thoughts where swirling around in his mind.

Just five months ago is world was in complete chaos. He, Ron, and Hermione had found and destroyed the very last horcruxes. All they had left to do was defeat Voldemort and that would bring a stop to all of the evil in the world. A month later, they had completed the long and tedious mission. It had taken the three of them almost two years to succeed.

He and Ron had then came Aurors and working for the Order. The last time he had seen Hermione was when they had received their special awards. He had always believed that the three of them would always be together and always be friends. But now, he began to think differently about that thought. It had been four months since he had seen or even talked to Hermione. The last thing he knew was that she was working as the new Charms teacher at Hogwarts. This brought as smile on his face, just thinking of how she was lecturing the students like she had always lectured him.

As much as he was glad that the chaotic and dangerous times were over, he wished he was still on that mission with Hermione. Harry missed talking to her and getting advice from her. Sure, he was trilled to be living with his best mate, Ron, but it was very different with out Hermione.

Harry stared out his bedroom window, in London, and watched the snow falling. Then, he saw a small speck that didn't look like snow. As it got closer he saw that it was headed towards his window. It was a big brown owl that seemed to be carrying something. Harry opened up his window to let the cold air and the owl fly into his room. The owl landed onto his messy unmade bed and Harry unraveled the letter that was tied to its leg.

Harry read the letter with a huge smile upon his face. He had just received the letter that Hermione had just sent a few hours ago. Harry was trilled to hear from her. Full of so much excitement and unable to sleep, Harry went out to the kitchen in his apartment. He began writing a letter that he should have written a long time ago.

Hermione,

Wow, I haven't talked to you in ages! It was so great to get your letter! It made me happy after a long and stressful day at work. So, how have you been? How do you like working at Hogwarts? I can just imagine you lecturing all of the students just like you used to lecture Ron and I about everything we were doing wrong. Haha, I miss all of those lectures though.

Hermione, life isn't the same with out you always by my side. I guess I got used to you always being there. I really miss you a lot! Ron and I have an apartment in London if you want to come and visit us sometime. It's probably a long ride, but it's definitely worth it. The Order is still located at…wait I probably shouldn't say just in case someone else reads this letter before you. But I can say that it's in the same place as it was during our sixth year at Hogwarts. Well, please keep in touch and I really hope to see you soon. I miss you! Ron says Hi.

Harry

He thought that would do for now. Lately, Hermione was all he could ever think about. Harry had really wanted to write a letter to her, but he was just always so busy. But now he was glad that he had finally done it. Harry attached the letter back onto the owl's leg, but decided to keep him until morning. It was probably tired from its journey from Hogwarts. Harry would just let it continue back tomorrow.

Harry flopped back onto his bed and was now able to fall asleep.
