Home is Where the Heart is
By choosing a budget and pulling their salaries together, Ron and Hermione were able to put a down payment on a quaint flat in a Wizard friendly city. Just outside the city was the famous Wizard friendly town, Ottery St. Catchpole.
If Hermione looked just far enough over the limp trees, she could just barely catch a glimpse of the little town. She loved the friendly upbeat vibe the city had, but always wondered if she'd ever walk her children in a pram down the walk in the little town. And when she did fantasize, Hermione imagined Ron right beside her, hand on her back, making faces to the infant and stealing kisses from her.
The day she and Ron settled in was a memorable day to say the least. Crookshanks almost got thrown away, due to the fact he was napping in a vacant box. Ron broke Hermione's favorite teacup which caused her to cry, which caused Ron to panic, which made Hermione begin to laugh.
"Alohamora!" Ron yelled. He huffed and tried again.
"Alohamora!" ….Nothing.
"Ronald, what on earth are you doing?" Hermione giggled.
"Hermione, you locked the damn sweets cabinet? I keep my goods in there!" Ron pouted.
"Which is the reason I locked it. Can you imagine Teddy or Victoire getting into your sweets? They'd be awake for hours!" Hermione informed her boyfriend.
"You didn't have to magic-proof the bloody lock. Just put one of those muggle latches on it, it'll be fine." Said Ron.
"I didn't!" Hermione erupted in laughter. "Your wand is broken again!"
Ron looked down. Sure enough, the top of his wand was hanging off.
This living with Muggle-Born is hard business…
I hope you enjoyed that!
