Chapter 3:

They're the Type of Couple

Disclaimer: I own nothing.

I've been put through a lot in my life. Most of these occurrences took place during my younger years. After all, I'm the only person in the world who's survived the Killing Curse, let alone the fact that I was a year old. Once I was properly introduced to the Wizarding World, however, I expected a lot of odd things to start happening to me. My first-ever friend was Ron Weasley. We had a great time getting to know each other as we grew up, quickly becoming best friends. After all that Ron and I have been through together, it would take a lot to permanently split us apart. He didn't mind teaching me everything I needed to know about our world and he did it with good humor and understanding. During our Hogwarts years, we were nearly inseparable, having the occasional row over something stupid. It would be lying however, to say that Ron is the only person who got me through those awkward teenage years. Unexpectedly, Ron and I also befriended a certain bossy know-it-all who got us out of numerous situations with her intelligence and bravery. I did not always consider Hermione my friend, but I was an immature eleven year old who went along with what his best friend said. If Ron thought Hermione wasn't worthy of our friendship, I thought that too. Fortunately, we got over that phase quickly enough and became what was to be known as "The Golden Trio." We would be the ones to take down the darkest wizard of all time. Soon after becoming this "Golden Trio," I started to notice that my two best friends would make a very "Golden" couple.

I dunno where I first saw the attraction between the two of them, but as we got older, I could see the possibility of them becoming a couple growing. At times, I thought they were completely mad. Either that, or they were extremely blind. Could they really not see how much the other wanted them? Were they really ignorant as to how well they would go together? Ron and Hermione are total opposites, but they complete each other perfectly. Their personalities compliment each other and they would have been so wonderful together. While we were in Hogwarts, I was sure that everyone had realized it but them. Finally, in sixth year after five long years of bickering and rowing, I noticed they were getting somewhere. Where somewhere was, I wasn't exactly sure, but I figured it was somewhere good. Leave it to Lavender Brown to go and screw everything up. I knew that Ron could make bad decisions, but this seemed to be a higher level of stupidity than I ever thought possible. I mean, alright, Hermione had kind of dated Viktor Krum, but that was in fourth year and it wasn't that serious. Ron, it seemed, had messed everything up completely. Even he had started to realize the mistake he had made by hurting Hermione. Soon, he found where his heart truly was, and how it had been with Hermione the entire time. But Ron seemed to have a problem breaking it off with Lavender. Fortunately with a little help from my friend Felix Felicis, Ron was finally single and able to date Hermione. Naturally, it took them another year, but they finally got around to it. They've been happy ever since.

Ron and Hermione compliment each other perfectly. Ron reminds Hermione to treat herself for her hard work and to let loose every once in a while. Hermione makes sure that Ron knows there is a time for work and a time for play and when he should be serious. They're good for each other. I dunno how I'd be able to handle them if they weren't in love. All the real fighting (not the fake "I like you but I don't want you to know" fighting) would have been a nightmare to deal with, especially with everything else I had to deal with as we grew up. Not that the fake fighting wasn't a nightmare of course. But anyway, I'm so happy that they've been so complete with each other because the first and foremost thing on my list of priorities is their happiness. Without their help, I would not be here telling the wonderful story of their romance. I don't expect their relationship to be fight-free, but I do expect them to grow old together. Take it from me, they're the type of couple who stay together forever.

A/N: Well, there you have it! The end to another fanfiction. I really enjoyed writing this one. I've still got about three ideas for fanfictions. I have to do my English assignment before I can start writing those, but I'll try to get those up as soon as I can. Happy Fourth of July to all of my American Readers! Oh, and I would personally like to thank everyone who reviewed, read, and added my stories to their favorites/alerts. You guys rock! Keep on Reading
