Come Fall Into Me...

I don't know where to begin. It's been ages since I've actually sat down to write about life that it is hard to find a point to start at. Not for lack of things to write about, moreso about lack of time to properly gather my thoughts and write. I suppose, at the beginning would be the best option.

Harry yelled spoke to my boss for me about the amount of hours I had been putting in at the office. He had come to visit me, not for that reason, just to see how I was doing, and he was avoiding work. As usual. We talked, and I told him what had been going on. I broke down in front of him. It isn't something that I do. I'm suppose to be the strong one, right? The sensible know-it-all that hides behind the books and knowledge she has. Honestly, I don't want to be just known for that anymore. I have a whole other side to me, that many of my friends and family don't see, but it's there. Harry really made me see that I was pushing myself much too hard and for nothing. Well, there is a little something in it for me. In just the short time since I arrived back in London from University, I have achieved things that most people twice my age would love to say they have. I know it will take time to truly earn my place among the ranks, and I will see to my dreams.

I should owl Ginny soon. We have lots to talk about. I enjoyed having dinner with her the a few weeks back. She invited me over and we had the most lovely time together. Just laughing and enjoying the freedom to do what we pleased. I can't remember the last time I had fun like that. It certainly has been far too long, and I know now that I should enjoy life.

I ran into Tonks at Diagon Alley. I hadn't seen her in years. I think the last time I saw her was before I left for Oxford. Merlin... That was five years ago. Truly, hard to believe it's been that long. We spent the day talking and catching up a bit over drinks at the Leaky and then shopping for new robes at Lavender's. It was fun. She is such an amazing woman, and I just cannot get over how much she's changed since I left.

We had dinner together at my flat the other evening. It was amazing. Then, while we were looking at pictures of her holiday, and I blurted out that I thought she was pretty and wanted to kiss her. It sank in about three seconds after I said it that I had actually said it. I mean, honestly, I've never really thought about girls that way before. It's strange, after running into Tonks that day in Diagon Alley, I kept thinking about how pretty she looked in the sunlight, smiling, and being free.

But yes, we kissed. I couldn't believe it then, and now still, it seems a little strange. I really like her. We agreed to take things slow and see what happens. I don't know where this... whatever it is with Tonks is heading, but I can't wait.
