Ron was sitting in the kitchen with Ginny, Hermione, And Harry. It was right after the war and everyone was silent. They had already did Fred's funeral. And he felt like It was a good time to bring up a happy announcement. "Um... Harry, Gin and Minoe can I have your attention?" Hermione gave Him a look but He ignored it and went on. "Sure Mate!" Harry turned and faced Ron. "What Now Ronald!" Ginny said. "Me, and Uh" Hermione interrupted "Ronald! It's There name and I not me and them" she then turned red knowing where this was going. Ginny studied her face. Harry looked confused. So he just went on "Hermione and I..." Harry grinned. Ginny then interrupted "finally! It's about time you too got together! That's 5 gallions Harry!" Harry scowled and reached into his pocket and grabbed 5 Gallions. Ron looked utterly confused. And Hermione's ears were turning more pink by the minute. "Blimey Harry! You two put bets on us?" Harry grinned and Ginny laughed "of course we did! Harry said that you lot would get together back in your 6th year. And I said you all would get together at the end of your seventh." Hermione then asked them questions burning up inside of her "when did you guys place bets on us?" Harry grinned awkwardly "um since the 2nd year at hogwarts..." Ron nearly shouted "Second Year! Blimey! Was it really that obvious?" Hermione nudged him. Ginny and Harry exclaimed in laughter. "Well ever since Hermione hugged me and didn't hug Ron, that when we all caught on." Hermione blushed rapidly. Ron's ears turned as red as his hair. Ginny bursted out in a hit of laughter. "Well there goes telling them peacefully" Ron said almost gloomily. Hermione snorted and They joined in on the laughter. "Oh! There's Errol..." Hermione exclaimed in her know-it-all tone. They each had Hogwarts letters infrount of them. Harry sadly looked at his paper. knowing Hedwig was dead. It just wasn't the same. Ginny noticed and rapped her arm around him. "Oi! Lovebirds we have letters to unwrap!" Ron shouted across the table that made Harry and Ginny break apart. Hermione already had her letter open. Hermione then read her letter out load

Ron and Harry exchanged looks. Ginny and Hermione Glared at them. "You cannot possibly be thinking of abandoning you education and not returning" Hermione Yelled at them "Minoe it's our choice" Ron said calmly. Harry Nodded. "And if we don't succeed with our jobs then we can always come back later. " Harry said nicely. "Well I have no choice... Mum would kill me if I dropped out" Ginny said angrily. "It's alright Gin..." Harry Started saying before Hermione interrupted "Its not alright! If you too come running back to Hogwarts later on... I told you so" She finished Madly. Ron looked at her. This is why he loves her. How much she cares about her education. Bloody Hell she could even be the minister one day. Ron nodded at what she said tempted to argue but was cut off by Mrs. Weasley "Breakfast is ready dears" Ron looked at Mrs. Weasley with joy "Good, I'm starving!" He held out his hand and Hermione took it as they walked to the kitchen. Mrs. Weasley who notices everything, saw there hands linked and spoke up "Is there something you haven't told me?" Hermione looked up into his eyes and blushed. "Minoe and I are together Mum" Ron said quietly. Mrs. Weasley exclaimed in joy "That's wonderful! My kids are so old know" Ron beamed at her and continued eating.
