Yeesh, not only is it horrible late, it's also horribly SHORT! How could you write such a beginning like this, and end it like that?! Fluff and whatnot, yes, but I want more.....MORE MORE MORE!

“I’m glad,” she whispers, after a few moments, her eyes on the piece of chocolate in her hand and miles away from his face, “that you’re back.” And she waits two minutes and forty-two seconds before Harry grabs for another piece of chocolate, misses, and holds her hand instead.

*hides* I'm sorry! Would you feel better if I wrote a sequel, then?

Thank you, though, you've no idea how happy I am that you at least enjoyed it, even if it was "horribly short". *loves*

Don't mind everyone asking for more. What you wrote was lovely as a stand alone, it doesn't have to be a novel. heh, and I'll be much later then you I think.

*flushes* Oh, that's such a wonderful thing to hear, that you liked it as it is. I think I may just write more, maybe not quite a sequel but, well, just more H/G, because I'm sure that never killed anyone. This is only my second H/G piece, so I'm drowning plot bunnies to write more. *facepalm*

And I'll be on the lookout for yours, dear. I can't wait.

That was amazingly brilliant and very different, stylistically. I loved the broken and sort of skewed stream of conciousness way that the characters had thoughts. Very nice but I wish it were longer!

*flushes bright pink* Oh, thank you! That's SUCH a compliment, and I'm so flattered.

And *points to post above* Seems like I will be writing more.

*grins and sends you chocolates and flowers* Thank you SO much.

agree with the first comment, and it really was adorable. Although it was rather sad that they didn't appreciate Ginny again at the match :( But a mellow Harry was v. cute!

*blushes* You're way too kind. I'm so glad you enjoyed it. I know, I felt bad for Ginny writing that, but figured that she was taking his place, anyway, and she'll get her chance next year. And, yes, mellow!Harry was probably the best character to right. I imagine that after he's killed Voldemort and everything's over, he'll be more at peace and willing to just enjoy life.

Thanks again, I'm really flattered! <333

I won't complain about a furthering of this story, but I think this is perfect just the way it is. It was going to be Harry's last game ever at Hogwarts, so of course they carried HIM off the field. Ginny had no problems with it, and it was their way of showing appreciation for everything in a way that they knew he could accept. (That's how I read it, at least.)

And you just know, at the end of what you have, that this is definitely the BEGINNING of a wonderful thing between the two of them. Continue if you feel the need, but know that it stands on it's own PERFECTLY.

Oh, Wow. Sometimes it's hard to get what really want across, even after tackling a sentence for weeks, and then when a reader really gets it, exactly what you ment, you have this wonderful feeling. You've read it exactly how I hoped I wrote it.

*blushes* Thank you. Honestly, I'm having trouble letting you know how much this means to me, but really, you've made a writer very happy indeed. I certainly feel inspired to write more H/G, which is never a bad thing.

*loves you* Happy Valentine's Day.

*is very flattered* Oh, don't worry--I'll write a bit more. :D *huggles back* Thanks so much, you've put the stupidest grin on my face, and I'm really pleased you enjoyed it.

Happy Valentine's Day, love.

This is lovely just as it is, although I certainly wouldn't object to a sequel. ;-)

Loved this little exchange:
“Think Harry may fancy your sister, Ron,”

“He doesn’t fancy her.”

“That’s not the right word for it.”

Just so you know, your icon is SO cute. And, also, I'm blushing furiously and trying to think of something proper to say to you, so I'll just leave it with a humble "Thanks!" and I'll let you know when I post the sequel. XP

Yay! I'll be looking for it!
