The next day was probably one of the most boring days ever, Ron and Harry did not talk at all about the war the fight or asking Louise, perhaps they were just too bored to remember but Harry knew he wanted to leave it for a while, the war was depressing him, a lot of students at Hogwarts were loosing family, friends, everyone knew the war was out there, it was just a matter of time before it reached the walls of Hogwarts.

No one was really scared about what was to come, they didn't know what to expect so they didn't know what they had to fear. But Harry Ron and Hermione knew different, they had everything to fear, although Hermione and Ron always tried to be supportive they would always hope that in the end good and Harry would prevail against Voldemort, but in the end that was all it was a hope….a fools hope, in their hearts they knew that Voldemort was strong and more experience than Harry, so in the end it all came down to luck, because luck was the only thing that had ever really been on Harry's side, though they did not deny Harry had skill, he knew what he was doing but just not as much as Voldemort. Ron had confidence in Harry but Hermione wasn't sure that Harry could ever really bring himself to kill someone, even someone as evil as Voldemort.

Even Harry was beginning to doubt himself, he always wanted to kill Voldemort, because of him Harry lost almost everyone he had ever loved his mum and dad, Sirius, Dumbledore…and he couldn't bear to think of who could be next, Hermione? Ron? Megan? It hurt him even to think of it, yes he would have to kill Voldemort in the end, or everyone else would suffer, all in all it was a lot of stress to put on a young boy, Harry was anxious to get out there and get it all over with, but part of him never wanted it to happen.

Hermione and Ron decided Harry needed some time to be Harry, normal happy Harry so they all went out to the lake and sat under the big beech tree, and just talked, like they used to do in simpler times….not that times were ever simple for them. But none the less they dragged Harry under the tree and talked of normal things, the good old times things they hoped to come, and they even grazed the idea of setting up a betting table, for people to bet who give up first, Snape or Louise, the three of them decided it would be Snape hands down, Louise had a lot of tricks up her sleeves, Snape would either give up or get chucked in the Looney bin, and they all hoped for the latter.
