Chapter 2: The Lovers Reply

I'm really sorry about the long wait on this chp. I have been having computer trouble and wasn't able to update. I hope you like this chapter, it was hard to think of something to write, so sorry if its a little smaller than the others.

"Ahhh...it feels good to go for run." said Viktor as he walked up his driveway toward his house where he could relax from a day of working out. When he got aside he went straight to the fridge to raid it for something to eat.

"I see your in the fridge once again before supper. Ohh well...I guess you can wait to open up your latest letter from Hermione." said Viktors mother with a slight smile on her face.

As he heard those words he instantly stopped and stood there for what seemed like an hour to him. "She sent me a letter? When did that come in?" replied Viktor trying to hide the curiosity in his voice which came out as obvious as the sun rises every morning.

"Ohh it came in a little after you left to train. If you want to stop raiding the fridge for fifteen minutes and go read it I left it on your desk. Ohh and don't worry, I only had an urge to look." said his mother with that same teasing grin on her face.

"Ok well I'll go read it while you cook dinner. Don't want to spoil my appetite." said Viktor as he tried to not show his excitement to much knowing his mother would make fun of him for it later. As he walked toward his bedroom he wondered what Hermione had written to him. He was surprised that she had even decided to write back to him. When he got to his room he grabbed the letter and noticed the owl was waiting impatiently for his treat since he had made this long rip twice and was probably getting tired of it by now. He fed the owl and sat on the edge of his bed and opened the letter. After he read t he was in awe with the fact that she liked him the same way he did her. He was glad to see that she was doing well and remembered the Yule Ball. "Man...that really was a fun but also weird year. The fact that I didn't win the tournament was disappointing but I guess Harry really did deserve it. I mean he was only a fourth year and did pretty damn good. Ohh well at least I got Hermione to notice me and got her to go to the Yule Ball with me." said Viktor to himself as memories flooded his mind of him and Hermione dancing and...

"Viktor suppers ready! Come on down and eat." said his mother cutting off his thoughts.

"Arghh...Be down in a minute!" said Viktor relatively pissed off for being interrupted. As he trudged downstairs he tried to think of what to write back to Hermione. He thought he might just make small talk but wasn't exactly sure.

When he was done with dinner he went back upstairs and took out a quill and parchment and began writing his letter:

Dear Hermione,

How have you been? I have been doing good if your wondering. Just today I started up on training regularly. I mean I have been training every once in awhile but wanted to start up before quiddtch. I'm sorry to hear that you had a bad day of shopping. Thankfully I am out of school but I know that I'll miss it a little.

I am also really happy about what you said in your last letter about me. It makes me happy to hear that you actually feel that way about me. Also I am glad to hear that you like me more than your friend but I hope that I am not going to be interfering with your guys friendship by letting this go on.

I also really hope to see you soon because just writing letters aren't my favorite way of communicating with anyone, especially you, but if its the only way to talk to you then so be it. I also cant wait to see you in person so I can actually have the chance of saying that I love you in person. I mean it might be nice in the letter but I know it would mean more to you and especially me if I got to say it to you in person.

I hope to receive another one of your letters as fast as I did this one.

Love

Viktor Krum

As Viktor sealed the letter he felt a sense of relief from writing the letter. "Well now all I have to do is wait for the reply" said Viktor to himself with a slight smile on his face as he got ready for bed.
