A/N: I tried another chapter, I hope its okay
Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter!
Harry opened his eyes to see the familiar orange posters still tacked on to the walls. Somehow even though there were several other free rooms in the Burrow, it didn't feel right staying there without sharing a room with Ron, no matter how stupid it sounded.
Ron snored loudly and turned over. Harry laughed into his pillow; he stretched, figuring he should probably get up. He saw Arthur (Molly had insisted that Harry call them by their first names) eating his toast, and he nodded at Harry. Arthur had been with the Minister (Kingsley Shacklebolt) in a meeting last night, and had not been home to celebrate Harry's good news. He congratulated Harry himself, with a handshake over cornflakes.
Harry sat down in his new office and sighed with relief. He was an Auror! He thought to himself as he drummed his new desk. But, what to do now? He had been introduced to several familiar and unfamiliar faces that day, and had a heck of a lot of paperwork to do. But all he could think about was Ginny. Did she want Harry to ask her to marry him? It all seemed a bit fast didn't it? But then Harry thought about it, he knew there was no-one else. They had been through so much together! He saved her from the Chamber of Secrets for goodness sake! Of course he could ask her to marry him! It only made sense. But Harry's thoughts were interrupted, by a knock on the door.
"Harry!"
'Neville? What are you doing here?' Harry asked, pleasantly surprised.
Neville Laughed, 'Well, I was 'in the neighbourhood' and I thought I'd stop by!'
He handed Harry a bottle of Mead, Harry gestured to the seat for him to sit. Harry was reminded of his own lessons with Dumbledore as Neville sat opposite him.
'What have you been doing?' Harry asked Neville, unable to hide his smile.
'Well, Harry, actually, I'm going to teach at Hogwarts in September!'
'You're Kidding!'
'Nope, Professor Sprout is retiring, and, McGonagall asked me!'
'That's great Neville! Really great!'
'Well you've done pretty well too Mr Potter! An Auror! Without even having to complete your training, I saw it in the paper, Now that is something!' Neville continued, 'But then, I guess, defeating Voldemort does kind of look good on your résumé!'
Harry returned home to find that it was only him Molly and Hermione. Molly was doing the washing, and the others were all at work. Hermione was at the table, scribbling furiously on a piece of parchment. She was so busy she didn't even notice
Harry until he thrust tea upon her.
'Harry! How long have you been here? I-'
'Don't worry about it,' he said, she was obviously under a lot of pressure, 'When is Ginny finishing?'
'Er, Oh I can't remember Harry I'm sorry, she said something about practise finishing late!' she said looking exasperated.
'That's alright!' said Harry, 'Hermione are you alright?'
She sighed.
'I think I'll leave this till tomorrow' she said, 'How was your day?'
'Alright, a bit uneventful, until I saw Neville!'
He filled her in on the story, she was happy for Neville as well. The whole time they talked, Harry was wondering whether he should ask Hermione for advice. But then he changed his mind, he probably would not be able to stand her smugness.
Harry looked at the famous Weasley clock and saw Ginny's hand turn from 'work' to 'travelling'. Surely enough there was a knock at the door, he opened it.
'How was practise?' He asked Ginny.
'Good! Yeah, I'm on the reserve team!'
Harry was so proud of her; she was reserve for the Holyhead Harpies.
Then it hit him. It had to be Qudditch related! He kissed Ginny hello, before she went inside, to make dinner with Hermione. Harry ran up the stairs, it was a lucky coincidence that Neville had happened to stop by he thought as he attached his letter to Pig, the Owl.
Bill and Fleur had come over for dinner, invited by Molly, who wanted to see how big Fleur was getting.
'I felt ze ferst kick ze 'uzzer day' Fleur was telling them all.
'How's it going at Gringotts Bill?' Harry asked as he turned to face him,
'Oh it's getting back on its feet! We've recently employed a lot more Goblins you see and re-strengthened all securities, all thanks to you three!' Said Bill with a wink.
Ron and Harry smiled, but Hermione blushed and suddenly became interested in her potatoes
'Dad, did you hear Neville's teaching at Hogwarts next year?' Ginny was telling her father.
Meanwhile George and Ron were talking about work,
'She clearly wanted to talk to you!' Ron was imploring
George snorted, 'Since when have you been the master of women?'
Ron went to say something, yet changed his mind catching Harry's eye. Harry knew Ron was about to mention a certain book. Hermione suddenly became interested in the conversation as well.
'Who was this girl?' She asked.
'Cho Chang!' Said Ron.
Ginny choked on her pie. Harry pat her on the back.
'What?' Said Harry , Hermione and Ginny.
