The Ceiling Game

"Ron," Hermione called out as she walked through the door of her shared apartment.
"Where is he? She wondered
Usually she would find her boyfriend either watching TV in the living room or attempting to cook dinner in the kitchen with disastrous results.

Instead, Ron was laying on their bed staring at the ceiling, his sparkling blue eyes deep in thought.
"Oh," said Ron "Hi, I didn't hear you come in. He sat up and kissed Hermione as she sat down next to him.
"It's ok I just didn't know where u were. What are you doing?"
Ron explained a game he had devised to help him cope with the loss of loved ones during the battle. He would imagine having conversations with them from the two realms- living and dead.
Similar to the way Simba had conversations with Mufasa in the Lion King. (Hermione had persuaded him to watch the film the previous week.)
"But don't worry, I don't do it to often and I know he's not really talking to me."
They both lay down and Hermione rested her head on Ron's shoulder.

According to Ron, Sirius pierced Fred's nose and tongue in return for him to stop chatting up his girlfriend, Marlene McKinnon. He misses all of his family and friends like crazy.
"You know he's happy though."
"Yeah, he's probably looking down laughing at us but proud that I finally got the girl of my dreams."
After sitting there in a comfortable silence for about 10 mins, it was decided that they would order pizza and re watch the The Lion King while cuddling on the sofa.
"I love you 'Mione"
"I love you too Ron"
