RON POV:

Harry and Draco had been together for a few months now and I can admit that I had my doubts. I thought Harry would end up being my famous brother in law who would treat my sister well. Seems like that wasn't in the cards for either of us. I was disappointed at first but it wouldn't be fair on either on them to stay in such an unhealthy relationship.

I never thought Draco would actually acknowledge the truce we made but he did. We got on first name terms after he took Harry to the hospital wing and came to get me and Hermione and tell us what happened. We realised that he wasn't always as cold and brutal as he acted when he insisted on staying with Harry. I trusted him completely after he had told us about his scars over his dark mark.
I first realised how obsessed Harry was with Draco in fourth year. He would always talk about him to the point where I had wondered why the mermaids had taken me and not him.

He made Harry really happy and it was really brave that he went to go and help Harry after he found out Harry was in love with him. The way he fought his father, even though we knew how terrified he was, just to make sure Harry would be okay, was just brilliant. It wasn't just Harry who he helped. Ginny. He got her and Luna on a date with Harry's help. On the subject of Luna; it was brilliant to realise they were siblings. I had noticed the similarities in their faces and even names in sixth year.

I was walking around school, aimlessly on a Saturday with Harry and Hermione. Then Ginny ran up to us.

"Hey guys, I need your help, desperately." She said

"Hey Gin, what's up?" I asked

Harry had a smile across his face

"Don't you dare..." Ginny started

"The ceiling, clouds" Harry started

"And potentially a broom" He and Ginny finished off together.

Harry was giggling while Ginny was having one of her sarcastic eye rolling moments.

"I suppose this is why you were about to 'hypothetically' murder Harry" Hermione sighed

"Anyway, I want to ask Luna to be my girlfriend but I don't have the guts or even know how to." Ginny snapped

"What would I know? I got asked. I wasn't going to ask Draco because I was scared." Harry mentioned

"I'm the most undatable person in the family" I admitted

"I've read every book in the library, none of them teach me about this." Hermione stated.

"Okay, I'll ask Draco, thanks anyway" Ginny said before going off to find our future brother-in-law.

We all decided to head to the common room and just relax for a while. We had all been stressed with exams coming up. These exams would really help us get to where we wanted to be. 'Mione was taking an exam for the Ministry of Magic and Harry and I were taking an exam about becoming aurors. Draco wanted to teach potions at Hogwarts, Pansy and Blaise also wanted to work in the Ministry and everybody had been stressed and reckless about it. Even I had been spending a lot of time in the library.

We were even reading together in the common room. It felt good to have a change of scene from the library. We all had our faces buried in books and it was honestly a lot easier to answer Hermione's random questions once we had really looked over things properly. It was easier having her there to help as well. I had put my book down and started another one that was actually pretty interesting. I still hated reading, but for a book, it was entertaining. Hermione was reading a book that she had definitely already read. She would always go over things just to make sure. It stressed me out sometimes. It was good for her, but knowing she would so much better than I would stressed me out. A lot.

Harry and I hadn't been sleeping as much as usual just so we would keep on making sure we could become aurors. Eventually Hermione would make sure we would get nine hours of sleep. She was an amazing friend and an even better girlfriend. I loved her, I really did.

The next day I woke up to see Harry had fallen asleep with his face in a book and his glasses lopsided on his face. I saw that I had a book over my chest and Hermione asleep on a chair with five books piled up on her lap. We had all agreed to stay in my dorm that night for studying reasons. I lifted my book off my chest and blinked a few times before reading another chapter. We only had two more months to revise for the final exam. We were all panicking. It was school today so I slowly walked over to Hermione and just gently shook her awake. She blinked a few times and then got up. Then as the best friends we are, slapped Harry across the head with a book.

He fell off his chair and screamed;

"RON, HERMIONE"

We both giggled and apologised then they both returned to their rooms to change. We had another hour before Defense Against The Dark Arts so we all just met up and decided to hang around the classroom together. Hermione quizzed is both on the things we had learned yesterday and it was pretty helpful. Golder invited us into the classroom and told us today we would be practicing Patronuses. She brought Harry up to set an example and he did, it was a pretty good one as well. Then it came me with my dog, Hermione with her otter and several others.

Then she called on Draco and a snicker went through the classroom because only Harry, Hermione, Luna and I knew about his peacock.

He walked towards the front of the classroom and put his wand before his face.

"Expecto Patronum" He said with a blank yet brutal expression.

The peacock came dancing out of his wand and a gasp went through the classroom, even Professor Golder seemed shocked.

We walked out the class and Harry went up to Draco and clutched his hand. They made each other happy. That was what mattered.
