Ron/Hermione

Summary: After the battle of Hogwarts, Ron and Hermione were still trying to figure out where they are in the matter of feelings. A cup of tea at a dawn in Shell Cottage seems to be the right way to they have an important conversation.
It was the first full moon since Remus’ return to Hogwarts in the position of Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. After the war, McGonagall took over the position of headmaster and reached out to him with an offer--return to his position for a five year guaranteed contract. Part of that legal agreement required him to work with Severus to make the Wolfsbane potion each month. The first time he missed a potion, he would be placed on probation. After three strikes, he would be out for good. He had no problem with the agreement itself but working with Severus was always an uncertain prospect, especially since he would again be teaching in the position that the man most wanted.
After working with the Order, Remus grew to trust Severus but he doubted there would ever be affection between them. Sadly, he thought, since he could use a friend. He walked through the dungeons to the man’s office with a heavy feeling on his chest. He knocked on the door and let himself in. “Severus, good evening,” he said. “I appreciate your help, as always.”
It was a spontaneous thing, Antoinette travelling to Virginia. It wasn’t exactly the place she was supposed to go to but what the heck? That’s what backpacking is all about...right?
Moving away from London years after the end of Voldemort’s war was a decision that she knew was coming. The stress and trauma that she had to endure and the losses she had suffered was enough for her pack up and leave. She wanted to have peace, she wanted to forget. Maybe even heal the scars that was inflicted upon her for being a half-blood traitor. It’s been a long time, yes. But there are things that just doesn’t leave you.
And she found herself in a small town of Mystic Falls. A historical place, says the locals that she had pleasure of meeting beforehand. It’s quiet nice and maybe she can find a temporary safe haven in this place, just long enough for her to try and move on.
“Steak and fries please, and some tea if you have any.” she smiled at the waiter and slid on the counter table, briefly looking around. The grill was packed, maybe because it’s the only place to eat around but hey, she’s not complaining. She’s hungry, tired and hopefully nobody would pay her much attention for a being a foreigner in a small town.
