Harry had decided not go to Arthur's grave. He had struggled with the decision for more than two weeks. There hadn't been a year when he didn't make the visit, but being he thought that being in Spain, and the events that had made him, in part, leave merited not going. Still, he found himself in St.Ottery

And there it was again. That feeling that he was being watched that lingered before was stronger now, and Ron instictively turned his head midsentence to find himself face to face with the very subject of his conversation. And he froze, staring in disbelief as Potter stared back. The shock only lasted a moment though before Ron glared and looked down again, muttering. "Speak of the devil. Sorry, Dad..."

He sighed and turned back to Harry. "Just..gimme a bit, yeah? I'm about finished." He called to the other man. Ron didn't quesion why Harry was there. He knew. He just didn't want to fight. Not today and not in this place.

"It's all right. Take all the time you need. I'm not in a hurry," he said to Ron with a shy smile.

Harry couldn't deny that he was a bit surprise at Ron's calm attitude, but then again, he was always respectful of his parents.

Ron eyed Harry's smile for a bit then turned back to the gravestone. He cleared his throat and went on. "Anyway....I um...m'sorry. Again...but, I'm going to come back, alright. Soon.." He took a breath and touched the grave, dropping his hand again and standing straight. A quick cough and Ron was walking back over to Harry, hesitating a little before meeting his old friend's gaze.

"So um...you come here a lot?" It was an awkward question..but the most civil Ron had been to his best mate in months.
