Rating: G



Stopping in his vault to get some gold had been a sobering experience. His vault was never stuffed to the walls, but it had contained a nice pile of Galleons up until a week or so ago. Seeing how much of his gold was gone made Ron a little ill. He had put his entire savings into a future that he didn't know was possible or not. Not the smartest move he had ever made, but Ron knew deep down in his gut that he had made the right choice.

Pulling out a few Galleons and taking them to be exchanged for Muggle money. Pushing the notes into his pocket Ron left Diagon. He stopped at the first clothing store he saw and bought a new pair of trousers and shirt. Ron remembered at the last second to purchase a tie though he had to have the clerk help him tie it. Muggles wore the oddest things.

After finding a private place to apparate from, Ron appeared a few blocks from the Granger house. Luckily he'd met her parents a few times over the years, but that didn't stop his heart from thudding against his ribcage.

Walking up to the door, Ron swallowed against a dry throat and knocked. Merlin's balls, what if they said no?!

"Of course you do!" Mrs. Granger said before Mr. Granger could say anything. She clapped her hands together and bounced in her seat. "Oh, Ronald, you dear,dear boy!" She wrapped her arms around him again.

Mr. Granger gave a nod once she was finished speaking. "You have our blessing, Son."

Ron awkwardly hugged Mrs. Granger back. He never did that well with people hugging him and, Merlin, she could hug tight. It was a good thing Ron was already use to going through this visit without breathing or he'd be in trouble.

"Th-thanks. Really. I promise I'll take good care of her. I swear." How he was going to do that, Ron wasn't entirely sure, but he knew he'd find a way.

"Oh. Um. Does it matter to either of you that Hermione and I aren't really dating yet? Because we're not. Not really." Maybe he should've told them that first.

"Oh, come now," Mrs. Granger said, lifting her handkerchief to take her glasses off and wipe the tears from under her eyes. "You two were made for each other. You've been off and on since school," she added, dabbing under her eyes. The kettle started to whistle, so she stood to go make the tea.

Mr. Granger watched his wife leave the room, then turned his attention back to Ron. "You've got a good job, Son?" He asked. Now that his wife left the room he could get down to business. "Where's this house?"

Ron still didn't feel confident. Mr. Granger could take his blessing back at any minute. He had to keep showing the man that he'd be a good provider for Hermione.

"Yeah. I mean, yes, Sir. I work as an Auror. With Harry. We're in charge of tracking down Dark Wizards and putting them in prison. And the house is in Ottery St. Catchpole, a few miles from my family's house. It needs work, but it's big enough for a family and all her books. I made sure there were lots of shelves."

"How's the market out in Ottery St. Catchpole?" Mr. Granger asked, considering everything Ron was saying to him very carefully. "Real estate prices going up?" He added, leaning back in his chair and steepling his fingers to observe Ron over the tips.

"Umm." Ron didn't know. "It's mostly wizards around the area. People live there for a long time. It's really safe though. And really pretty. Lots of trees and some small ponds." He didn't feel like he was going to faint, but Ron was still nervous.

"My brother looked over the mortgage papers for me. He said it was a good thing and all that."

"Your brother's a lawyer?" Mr. Granger asked before he could help it. "--Do you... uh... have lawyers in your world?" It was obvious by the way he said it that the idea his daughter lived in a different world than he did was rather painful to him.

Mrs. Granger came back into the room, carrying a second tray with a teapot, teacups, cream, sugar and honey. She set it on the table, then sat down. "When are you going to do it?" She asked, excitedly. She was obviously rather excited.
