Granger, when do you have to meet McGonagall?
She scheduled for us to meet on Friday, so I am free for the next four days.
Good, I've been waiting for a chance to have you all to myself. For the past few days we've been so tired packing and unpacking that we just dozed off each night.
When I am cuddled up against you in between all those blankets, I just feel so comfortable that sleep just takes over me. I swear, it feels like I've consumed a sleeping potion.
Well, that just means I have to throw the blankets in the corner when we get to bed tonight.
WHY? I love cuddling with you.
We can bring them back… after we have sex.
Fine…
Oh, and while you're coming back from the library, stop by the supermarket and get some cheddar cheese and half a kilo of medium rare steak, I'll make something with them tonight.
I still cannot believe you can cook.
I cannot believe YOU can't.
A girl can be forgiven for not being able to cook.
But you're no ordinary girl. You're Her-
Stop.
Don't worry, I love you either way.
Yeah, I love you too. Though, why the steak dinner?
Just thought I'd make something special in commemoration of us moving in together.
You're such a romantic.
Really, I'm only doing this for the "Good Loving" you gave me last week.
You just couldn't leave it there, could you?
Nope.
Granger, I was wondering if we should buy a Television.
What brought this about?
Nothing, just curious.
Hmm… You get weirder every day.
So, what's the verdict?
We'll see, let's get settled first.
When will you able to make it back?
I'm sorry love. McGonagall invited me to sit with her for dinner. She wanted to discuss my work here as an Assistant Teacher and as her Protégé for the next 5 years.
Oh… that's fine then. You take care, and let me know what happens.
Daph, I am really sorry. I know you made dinner for the two of us in celebration but… I cannot refuse…
I know and I understand. Seriously, it's alright. You do what you must for your job. I'll cook for us again tom-
Hold on, there's someone at the door.
Okay. I have about ten minutes before I must get back. I'll wait.
Granger… it's my sister. She seems really upset for some reason. I think I might have to have dinner with her. I'll message you back later. Best of Luck with the old grouchy cat. I love you.
Don't call her that. And I love you too. Let me know what happens.
Daph, I'm sorry this is going so late. Is everything alright over there?
I'll be home in about twenty minutes. How is Astoria?
Granger, I think I might have to spend the night here. Message me after you get home. I'll tell you everything.
Okay. I will.
Daph?
Granger, you're back.
Yeah.
How did it go? What did she say?
It was nothing. She just wanted to spend some time with me. She explained what the plan was and then I came home. I'll explain everything else later. More importantly, is Astoria alright?
She's asleep. But I still think it'll be better if I stay with her.
What happened?
Where do I begin? Astoria… I don't know if you know, but she's always been quite weak of health. Her body was quite frail and she preferred staying indoors. We never knew what the problem was. We had contacted many Healers over the years, but they couldn't find the cause of this peculiar disease. Well… yesterday, Astoria was browsing through the old family records when she stumbled upon something. One of our ancestors had been cursed with an extremely rare Blood Malediction, and she appears to have inherited it.
Oh no…
She took that book to the Healers at St. Mungo's today and they confirmed it. it's the same curse that her ancestor had faced. It resurfaced in her after nearly a century without a trace.
Daphne, you MUST stay with her tonight. She needs your support right now.
Yeah, I will. But she isn't as concerned about that as she is about something else.
What is it?
She is concerned about telling Draco, her boyfriend.
Oh Merlin...
Yeah…
I don't know what will happen, but please let her know that she can always stop by at our place. And if Malfoy gives her any trouble, I'll be more than happy to punch him once again.
Daph?
I'm sorry… I was laughing…
Hmm…
I'll inform her… Thank you for that.
You're welcome.
I'll be home in the morning.
Try and get back before I leave for Hogwarts again.
You have to go again?
Did I forget to tell you? Fuck, I am so sorry. I have to leave by nine in the morning tomorrow. Professor McGonagall wants me there to show me my quarters and then give me a few training sessions on teaching.
Love, I don't think I can make it back before nine.
Oh…
I'm sorry, I'll try. I wish I could come right now, even if it's for a minute. But Astoria's got my left hand in a vice grip.
No, it is okay. It's only for a day. I will see you tomorrow evening. Keep in touch. Good night.
Good night.
Daph.
Daph, are you still asleep?
I have to leave now. Message me once you wake up.
Granger, I'm so sorry. I overslept.
It is alright. How is she?
She's feeling alright. We had a chat as soon as we woke up and I convinced her to do it today. We're going to Draco's place to tell him.
We?
I'm going with her to ensure neither of them does anything stupid.
Hmm… Let me know how it goes.
Okay.
Granger.
Done already?
Yeah. Draco was initially worried because my dear little sister had apparently disappeared on him. He almost started crying when she finally told him why. But... he's not leaving her.
He's not?
Did you expect him to?
I might've been prepping my right hook.
He's changed, Granger. The war has affected him as much as it has affected us. The two of them don't even reside at the Manor anymore.
They don't?
I thought I told you.
You told me that she was moving in with him. I assumed it was the Manor.
No. Lucius and Narcissa were not happy with Astoria when she told them she didn't believe in the Pureblood ideology. They moved out and got their own place.
I guess he really has changed. Anyways, where are you now?
I'm home.
Okay, I will be back by five in the evening.
Do not miss dinner tonight.
I won't. I promise. I can't wait to get back to my Daph.
Granger, we've only been apart for around 24 hours.
I know. And that is too long.
Wow, you're really horny right now aren't you?
I didn't wear underwear today.
Oh Fuck.
I must've gone to the bathroom at least three times by now. Every single time I had to get myself off because my pussy was gushing from constantly thinking about you, fantasizing about your face and your fingers between my legs.
Fuck.
In fact, at this very moment I'm in my chamber, completely naked in my chair… with two fingers inside my pussy.
FUCK! Now I'm just as horny as you are.
Good, you should be. I'll be back by five. Be a darling and wait for me eagerly.
OH, COME ON! Now I'm all riled up as well. I can't believe you did that to me.
Ginny was right, I really am whipped.
That you are, love.
Daph, make sure you get back by 10:45. Our turn starts at eleven and I don't want to be late.
You still haven't told me what it's for.
You will find out soon enough.
Yesterday was beautiful, love.
Thank You. I didn't expect you to be that ecstatic when I told you we were going deep sea diving.
I always loved the ocean back at home. So when you told me I was going to explore the world underneath the surface of the ocean, I just couldn't control my elation any longer.
Well, I'm happy you loved it. There's one more thing we have to do though.
And what might that be?
Do you recall the restaurant on top of that cliff? The one on the right.
Yeah?
We're having dinner there tonight.
…
Daph.
Don't even bother, I'm dancing.
Of course.
Granger, who is Ricky Mart? And why do I keep hearing this 'living... something… loca' song on the radio?
Ricky Martin - Livin La Vida Loca
Yeah, that's the one. Why do they constantly play this very song?
It is a popular summer song. A lot of people like it, so the radio stations play it very frequently.
I don't like it. It's too… funky.
Wow! Where did you pick up that?
What? 'Funky'? I heard a bunch of muggles say it earlier. Thought you might appreciate me learning some muggle slang.
Never say it again.
Don't you want me to learn more muggle stuff?
Not shit like this.
Alright… I won't.
Good. Now I am coming home immediately because I must cleanse your lips for carrying out such debauchery.
Oh baby… I'm in need of a deep cleansing.
You bet you do.
Did you talk to Astoria lately?
Yeah, I told her about us.
And?
She is happy for us. In fact, she wanted to thank you for your support with Draco… and for winning the war.
Oh, okay. That's good.
Yeah. About her health, she's doing fine. Her condition is not improving, but it's not getting worse either. Draco is doing everything he can to try and find a cure.
Good.
Also, she'd love to meet you sometime. Have you over for dinner someday.
I would love to visit them for dinner. Maybe a little later though.
Yeah, I told her that you were busy with your Hogwarts stuff. We'll visit them after a few weeks. Don't worry yourself about it.
Thank you, love.
I think we should buy a television.
What brought about this pleasant surprise?
I realized being an Assistant Teacher to Professor McGonagall will be quite hectic. And your job at the potions research center doesn't start until July. So you might get a little bored with just the radio. Especially if they keep playing Ricky Martin over and over again.
Thank you, Granger. It isn't a necessity though.
I know. But since you told me we would be moving in together, I have always imagined movie nights where it is just us, a movie and a box of take out. We will be cuddled up on the couch covered in a blanket while we watched some stupid rom-com. And then we would fall asleep on the couch with your arms around mine…
Aww… you're just fishing for more opportunities to cuddle, aren't you?
Of course I do. I love your cuddles.
Then rush back from the Library. Dinner's ready. I can't wait to get you in bed afterwards.
I'll be there in a minute.
Good.
How was it? I have to change the rating to M for that bit, unfortunately. Sorry about that.
Let me know what you think of it in a review. I'd love to hear from you guys.
Also, to those who don't understand, Hermione has to spend a lot of time at the library to get ready to be a teacher in September. And that's when she usually messages Daphne.
