What is it, Nym?

Chapter 8

"But ......... How would"

"I don't know, Hermione. But, the charms I put on the place should be enough."

She had a point. When we moved in, she put about a dozen security charms on the place. Something which didn't surprise me. I am dating an Auror, after all.

"Yeah, I remember. Have you told anyone else?"

"Only Catherine and Lisa, but they never liked him, so they wouldn't have told him."

She was right, they wouldn't. Particularly Catherine, she really didn't like him. Lisa tended to balance out her personality though. They were great together.

"No, they wouldn't. And, I know that Harry, Draco, Luna and Neville wouldn't tell anyone."

There was another kick, and we both laughed. But, the laughter soon stopped.

"It'll be OK, Nym. Don't worry about it. There's no way he could do anything, with all you've done to this place."

She nodded, looking at me. Her hair, which had been pink, turned green. She was worried about this. I moved closer to her, kissing her cheek.

"It'll be OK. Don't worry. You're the Auror, remember?"

That made her smile.

"Yeah, thanks baby. For everything."

"I'm here for you, you know that. I care about you and these two. Who seem to be wide awake now."

She sat up, looking at me. I was worried, but I didn't think he would try anything to obvious. Saying stuff like that, would freak her out. But, with all the charms she'd put on this place, I didn't think he'd get in.

"Yeah, they are. Hey, I wanted to ask you something. Do you want to find out what the"

"That's up to you, Nym. It doesn't bother me. If you want to know, then we can ask. If not, then we can wait."

I thought it was a good idea, but it was really up to her.

She shook her head, and looked at me.

"Baby, I want you to be involved in this. I want to know what you think about this. I think we should."

"Yeah, it's a good idea. We'll see what happens next time."

We both had work the next day, and when I was on my way to lunch, I ran into Catherine and Lisa. They smiled, when they saw me.

"Hey, how are you?"

I smiled at Lisa, as they walked over to me.

"I'm good. Buried under a mountain of paper work, but good. What about you two?"

I grabbed something, and sat with them.

"We're good. Did Tonks tell you about that thing with Remus?"

"Yeah, she did. But, I managed to talk her out of doing something stupid."

"Talk me out of what now?"

I turned to see Tonks, with pink hair, looking at me with an eyebrow raised.

"Nothing, you OK?"

She sat next to me, looking at Lisa and Catherine.

"I'm fine."

She shook her head, looking at me. Catherine and Lisa laughed, watching us. We both looked at them. The didn't say anything, and looked at each other.

"You two are worse than she is."

Catherine looked at Lisa, annoyed. She wasn't really that bad, just had a very, very perky personality. Something we all knew, Lisa loved. But, teasing her about it, was also something Lisa loved.
