A Life Changing Moment
Chapter Fifteen: Ron's Day
After finishing breakfast this morning, one of the school owls drop a letter where Ron's plate used to be. On Hermione's urging, he quickly opens the letter to read the content from Dumbledore himself.
Dear Mr. Wesley,
Per your parents wishes Professor McGonagall shall escort you to Golden Red for lunch today. This lunch to my understanding is to meet with your betrothal and her guardian. You must meet in Professor McGonagall in her office at quarter to twelve.
As discus before in regards to your mentors in the areas of abilities, affinity for, prodigy in, and potential masters in. This following list is the names of those mentors:
Animagus Training with Sirius Black
Mind Arts with either Professor Snape or myself
Offense & Defense Magic with Remus Lupin
Dueling with Professor Fliwtick
Battle Magic with Kingsley Shacklebolt
Strategy Training with Amelia Bones
I shall have a concrete schedule after the first task of the Tri-Wizard Tournament has been completed which shall coincide with your current fourth year schedule.
Sincerely,
Professor Albus Dumbledore the Headmaster of Hogwarts
He sees that both Hermione and Harry had gotten letters as well as they where reading theres. The rest of the morning the trio spends relaxing by the Black Lake where there conversations were nothing serious to keep their minds off of the importance of today.

Ron arrives promptly in Professor McGonagall's office as McGonagall says politely to him "Mr. Weasley, according to the wish of Professor Dumbledore we shall travel by floo to the Leaky Cauldron where your parents would be waiting for you" while Ron nods his head in agreement.
Ron clearly says "Leaky Cauldron" as remembers Harry's mishap two years earlier following behind McGonagall through the floo network. As he arrives at the Leaky Cauldron through the fireplace, Ron finds his parents awaiting his arrival.
Molly carefully examines her son's appearance of his blue jeans and white polo t-shirt that was brought during a shopping trip with Hermione, Harry, and Sirius after his trial before she hugs him tightly.
"Mom, I can't breathe" says Ron quickly somewhat breathless from Molly's hug as Arthur says happily "You can let go of Ron now" reminding his wife slightly as she tends to go overboard in these situations of reuniting with her son after weeks or months apart.
As Arthur takes a hold of Ron's arm and apparates to the alley behind the Golden Red which is reserve for their magical clientele.

The hostess immediately escorts them to the Potter lounge to wait the arrival of the rest of their lunch party. Mere seconds after they where seated, Madam Amelia Bones and her niece Susan arrives escorted by the same hostess.
The hostess bubbly says to the VIP clients before her "Your waitress will be with you shortly" before leaving them in complete privacy.
Susan asks questionably "Why I am here because I have no idea what soever?" to the other people at the table before she could get a answer their waitress came into the lounge to get their drink order from them.
As soon as the waitress leaves the lounge, Ron was the one that answers Susan's question "As you know that Harry was chosen to be a champion but later got out of competing because Harry Potter was never his legal name. However, to prove that his real name was Hadrian Orion Regulus Potter-Black was to perform a heritage test" begins to explain Ron before their waitress brought to their table their chosen drinks and quickly ordering their meals.
"A heritage test" whispers Susan before remembering a key lesson that she learned from her aunt before voicing these words "Hermione and you partake in the heritage test as well but I still don't understand why I am here?" knowing that everyone thought that Ron and Hermione were meant to be together. There was even a pool among her fellow Hufflepuffs to when they would become a couple.
Ron bravely says "Your soulmate" after hearing those two words Amelia orders Arthur and Molly to produce proof on the matter. As Ron nervously hands Amelia his heritage test results which she carefully read:

Mother: Rebecca Anne Bones nee Wright - half-blood
Amelia's attention was solely on the selection that named her only living relative as his soulmate before handing the parchment over to her niece to read as well.
Molly orders everyone motherly "We will eat our lunches to give both Amelia and Susan time to absorb this news that they just learn before talking about further" when a couple of waitresses including their own comes into the lounge with their food and refills on their drinks.
Nearly an hour later after they all had a delicious slice of chocolate cake, Amelia spoke up on the matter at hand "Susan does not have a betrothal agreement with any suitors at the present but they should be able to date before deciding if this is what they both want" knowing the importance that her niece has the chance to fall in love then being forced to marry a man that she did not love.
"That would be wonderful" says Molly knowing that is the best situation for Ron and Susan's circumstance.
"Arthur, if they decide to move forward in their relationship we shall work out a betrothal agreement on Susan's fifteenth birthday" explains Amelia before adding "There is one exception that is non-negotiable is that any children produce from this union shall bear the surname of Bones"
Arthur nods his head agreement because he knew that Susan has a higher status then Ron does. But most importantly it would be a tragically to let the Bones name become extinct while he had other children to carry the Weasley name.

Once Ron and Susan floo back to McGonagall's office after Molly brought them to the Leaky Cauldron after lunch. Before they went their separate ways, Ron bravely asks "Do you want to go with me to Hogsmeade with me?"
"Like a date" says Susan happily at thought of having a date with someone that she could fall in love with over time "Sure" before leaving him behind as she walks back to her common room.
As Ron watches Susan walk away, he looks carefully at the beautiful petite red hair beauty that could eventually become his girlfriend. Instead of going to the Gryffindor common room, he heads off to Sirius's guest rooms where he could talk freely with both Hermione and Harry about his day but also of their own.
