Perhaps she'd make a good GrindyLow? *laughs evily*), Lucia Rayne (Well, no and yes. They don't really care about the relationship, however, when Harry returns with Draco after Summer Break with a big tummy, there'll be some discontent about it) :), XDezzyXBleedsXInkX (Good.

Chapter 20 The Morning After (Entrance)
They arrived in the Great Hall for lunch just as the food appeared on the tables, their hands linked and heads held high as they strode over to the Gryffindor table and sat down beside each other. By now most everyone was used to seeing them together, but his hair did cause a bit of a stir, mostly at the Gryffindor and Slytherin tables since those two houses alone knew the significance of the change.
"So," Ron leaned in to whisper in his best friend's ear. "How was your date?"
"It was wonderful, Ron. I'll tell you all about it later, I promise."
"Okay. So you're bonded now. What's it like?"
"I really don't feel much different, honestly. I feel… closer to Draco, if that makes sense, but I've always been close to him, whether he knew it or not. It's more intense now, but that's all. That's everything. All I've ever wanted."
"Well, I'm happy for you, Harry."
"Thanks. Now we just need to get you and Hermione together."
Ron flushed, shaking his head subtly, flicking his eyes toward a pissed off looking Hermione briefly. "I don't think that's going to happen, Harry. She's not very happy with me right now."
"What?" he asked in concern. "Why?"
"Partly because she took Ginny's side about this. You and Malfoy, I mean, and I didn't. He makes you happy, so you deserve to have him. That's all I told her."
"Thanks, Ro. What's the other part?"
"Well… I've sort of met someone else…"
"Someone else? You mean like a girl?"
"Something like that, yeah."
"Who?"
"Um, Victor Krum…" Ron muttered quickly, keeping his eyes on his plate.
"What? Could you repeat that?"
"Krum. Victor. We've been exchanging letters ever since last year. He said that he's going to come visit me during the summer."
"Oh. Um, is that good?"
"Yeah. It's good. He really cares about what I have to say, you know?"
Harry smiled, his eyes moving to rest on Draco fondly. "Yeah, I know…"
