"Buenos Dias, San Juan!" Theo exclaimed in a couple of seconds as they arrived in Puerto Rico while he was shrugging dust particles from his tropical shirt.

They all laughed at the funny spanish accent he tried so hard to mimick.

Theo was a very handsome man, he was in fact, one of the most handsome back in their Hogwarts years with his messy jet black hair, pale skin and bright emerald eyes, Blaise too with his dark tone and bright blue eyes, Draco, well we all know the Draco Malfoy — platinum blonde hair, expensive robes, and that smirk, and of course, the late Cedric Diggory, Oliver Wood and the ever embarassing but really good looking Cormac McLaggen.

They were all clumped in an alleyway behind the busy streets of San Juan.

"Blimey! It's hot in this country!" Ron squinted his eyes at the sun, wiping a few streak of sweat on his forehead. He peeked around the place and let his wand out. With a flick of his wand, his black shirt was immediately conjured into a black sleeveless.

Astoria's attention was then caught by the redhead. "Woah, Weasley. Never knew you lifted." She scoffed. Time and age has done Ronald Bilius Weasley good. His red hair are messed up in all the right places, his skin is still as pale as ever, but his body was now leaner due to all those years being an auror. And those emerald eyes as well.

Why are these men unworthy of the colors of their eyes? Astoria thought. She then glanced at everyone's eye color.

Potter has emerald eyes, including Theo and Weasley.

Blaise has bright blue eyes.

And Draco — his light grey orbs.

And all she has are deep dark browns. Even Hermione has beautiful hazel eyes. She sighed.

"Never knew a Weasley could please you, Astoria." Theo commented as he watched Astoria scrutinize Ron's built.

"Oh please, I'm just playing." She said as she rolled her eyes. Astoria then opened her bag and grabbed a flask, and drank it straight.

"What's that?" Ron asked furrowing his ginger eyebrows. "Potion, medicine, it helps." She said nonchalantly and muttered a wandless spell that made the flask liquid as it fell to the ground.

"Let's go." Draco said and reached for Hermione's hand causing Astoria to be surprised at the gesture. Are they together? She asked herself.

"Bet they are." She jumped in surprise as Theo chimed, wearing a smirk, wiggling his eyebrows at her. "What?!" She snapped back. Theo just shrugged his shoulders and walked past her, leaving her with Blaise, Ron and Harry.

"Let's go, brunette." Ron said and grabbed Astoria's arm. Blaise and Harry looked at eachother with a what was that all about look as they watched from the back.

The the foreigners bustled over the busy market of San Juan, locals eyeing them for their bright skin.

"Blimey, muggles here are sure muggles of color." Ron commented, leaning in, whispering to Astoria. "What? Why are you talking to me?" Glared Astoria. Ron ignored her and continued to appreciate their sunkissed skins. They were beautiful.

"We have everything set, do we?" Harry asked as they reach the coast line with boats on dock.

"Yes, we do. We have food, clothes, medicine, all intact." Hermione answered, counting all the things in her mind. She glanced at Draco who was having a hard time speaking español to the local.

Hermione went to Draco and nodded to him. "What are you trying to say?" Hermione whispered. "I was trying to tell him over and over again that I bought a boat, bote, I said but he doesn't quite understand me." He said confused. The local was speaking so fast while they were whispering.
