Hello guys sorry that this chapter took more time than expected by me but in my defence I didn't have any proper story to write. I just couldn't get any ideas, so at last after hampering my mind I came up with this. Hope its fine to continue the story.

Chapter 5 - Everything Nice

Harry woke up next morning feeling quite thrilled, quite fortunately he had slept without a nightmare the previous evening and now everything was gonna change for him. His relationship with one of his best friends, now perhaps his girlfriend, he thought, would be changed. After that experience in the common room everyone in the school would know that Harry was dating Hermione.

He got up took a shower and put on his dress robes then when he went down he found Ron and Hermione already seated at the couch near the fireplace. Then as they heard footsteps they looked back towards Harry and then quite suddenly Hermione ran towards him and kissed him right there in front of Ron and a few fellow Gryffindor's.

"Aren't we supposed to you know do this in private?" asked Harry.

Hermione simply smiled."Almost everyone in the school knows this Harry" Ron answered for him.

"Yah well who cares?"Harry told him."Anyways looks like I have to go to Professor Slughorn's class. I am a bit late and you guys are too!"

"Oh yah I'll just come along I don't know why Professor McGonagall told you to take me as well"

"Just come on will ya."said Harry "I never thought that you Miss Granger would like to miss a class especially our first Potions class with a new teacher"

"Well I can't leave my boyfriend to just walk around the castle alone and the same is here to myself. I wouldn't want to go without you." replied Hermione.

Harry and Hermione walked hand in hand obviously now that they were a couple whereas Ron felt left out and just walked in front of them because he couldn't be behind them and watch them flirting, snogging and cuddling while walking and stuff.

"C'mon, get a room you two" said Ron.

At last they reached the Potions dungeon ... and then the story is the same Harry wins Felix Felicis but Hermione is unsuccessful and Ron is dreadful and all the same..

Harry went and kept his liquid luck in his sock in his trunk and then ran down Gryffindor Tower and reached back to his friends.

"Hey guys listen it's a free period now lets go out to the grounds and enjoy the view" asked Harry to both of them and they nodded.

While on the ground they went to the lake where the Triwizard World Cup was held two years ago. While laying there they saw Luna nearby feeding meat to something. Thestrals they were she explained and even Harry could see them as he had seen death, the one of his godfather.

Harry invited her over to sit with them and she accepted. Clearly Ron was acting weird he sat next to Harry opposite to Luna while Hermione was left to sit next to Lune and opposite to Harry.

Hermione and Lune started talking. They talked about stuff that neither Harry nor Ron could understand. Nargles and other imaginary creatures and about her father's magazine Quibbler, So Harry and Ron started talking about Quidditch that they could understand and talked about who would win the match between the Holyhead Harpies and the Chudley Cannons.

Harry found it strange to see Ron glancing at Luna and Hermione trying to get in their conversation so he decided to get Ron in it.

"Hey Luna have you learnt any new spell after our DA meeting's got cancelled?" asked Harry.

"Yes, I think I have but they are not to much effect. I think I'll need you and Hermione to start the DA club again so that we all can learn some more new stuff" she looked as though she didn't know what she was saying but she spoke it in a dreamy voice.

"I'll see what I can do" he couldn't invoke Ron into the conversation there so he started again.

"Hey Luna who is the Ravenclaw chess champion? Ron is the Gryffindor chess champion and he would like to take down all others."

"Oh, that's nice but I don't know. I wanted to play myself but I don't quite understand the game" she replied

"That's great, I mean -uh Ron can teach you the basics he is pretty good." Harry said to her.

"Um. Yah I can" Ron said rather tensely.

A few minutes later they continued their conversation with Hermione even conjured a chessboard for Ron and Luna to play with. As their game progressed Hermione asked Harry to go for a walk and leave them alone for a moment while they enjoy themselves some alone time, he agreed and they went together hand in hand enjoying the scene before them.

They stopped near a tree and then sat below it kissing each other till they had to stop for catching their breaths. "I love you Miss Granger" Harry said.

"I love you too Mr. Potter" she said.

They kisssed again this time more passionately. After about some fifteen minutes of snogging they felt Ron call out to them.

"Hey lovebirds come on Luna is leaving and our free period's over" he shouted.

They got up walking hand in hand once again they met up with Luna and Ron and seeing Harry and Hermione walking hand in hand Ron too took up the courage to ask Luna to walk hand in hand with him. He waited when Harry and Hermione were little bit far off.

"Why are we slowing down?" she asked innocently.

"Hey Luna, I was wondering if um. -if you would go out with me. As i see we haven't much met I'll take no as an answer. Never mind ignore it lets go." he said quite awkwardly and ashamed.

"I would love to" she said and Ron quickly felt his hopes brighten up at once. "Never has a boy asked me that till now. I really admire it Ronald" she told and then took his arm and went up to the castle.

After this both the couples went to their respective classes and then met up with one another at dinner in the Great Hall. Here after dinner they once again met one another and Ron invited eveyone to go out to the courtyard just for a walk.

Luna gave Ron a kiss on his cheeks which made Harry and Hermione smile, but she soon had to leave as she had to go to sleep. "Having fun are we?" asked Harry to Ron with a smile.

"Shut up, Harry" he blushed a bit and then they went up to their dormitories. Before Ron and Harry could go to their dorms Hermione caught Harry and gave him a kiss that was so long that it had to be broken so Ron coughed but to no use he went up to his dorm followed by Harry a few minutes later.

Everything was perfect for him. Eveything was Nice.
