Lovely chapter! It's so sad that for all this time Harry has been Hermione's only family! No wonder she fell in love with him! Looking forward to seeing what happens next! Keep up the amazing work! Please update again soon! :) ♥ Tiffany

Thanks, Tiffany! Glad you noticed that theme, since I'm definitely going somewhere with that:)

Love the Ron/Harry moments! I could totally see them at a quidditch match together! And I love how you're slowly letting Harry get glimpses of how he loves Hermione - no ridiculous monsters in the chest.

And Dumbledore! Who is so awesome! Such a heartbreaking flashback, but awesome nonetheless!

Keep up the awesome work!

I LMAO so much at the monster. Harry. I love you. I adore you. You're my favorite character. But STFU, lol. Even worse was "looking into a brilliant light". Man, Ginny's 11 year Valentine's Day poetry was better than that shit.

DD rules all.

I just realized I said awesome like 4 times in the span of two sentences. But you're story is just that amazing!

Hee. Thanks, Jen!

Oh man. I looooooved this chapter. I mean, all the HHr moments were quite subtle, like Harry's speech to Ron about how Hermione is vulnerable (I love Overprotective!Harry! :D), but still, really sweet. I mean, she's always there for him, and he is slowly but FINALLY realizing this.

And...what I really enjoyed the most was that Harry/DD flashback. It was SO sad. :( Harry showed a great deal of maturity, learning to let go of Dumbledore, and refusing to visit his portrait, even though it broke his heart. :( THAT's the Harry we all know and love. And you're so good at writing him. Seriously, that's why it's really easy to follow this fic, cause everyone's in character.

Anyway, I obviously also loved the Harry/Ron interaction. This cracked me up: “What…like a girl?” LMAOOO. Their friendship rocks.

So, I can't wait to see what happens next. Update soon, please!

Yeah, I've (hopefully, lol) created a situation where I think it works for Harry to take a stand without it seeming like he's totally blowing Ron and how he feels off. I don't think he'd ever do that, but I think situations could fall in a way where Harry would feel Hermione needs more protecting.

I was so...both intrigued and devastated by the idea of Harry putting the wand back in the tomb. I know my boy; I know he'd do it himself.
