Eternal

Post-OotP - Harry returns to Hogwarts with his thoughts on Sirius, and somehow finds himself talked into resuming Occlumency lessons with Snape! Hermione is being very mysterious, and Ron is quite the ladies (and mens) man! Will Harry find himself confiding in his once worst enemy? Meanwhile, someone we thought was lost is working his way back to the Wizard world. HP/DM, HP/SS, RW/DM, RW/HG and implied SS/RL, SB/RL.

Post OotP - As he resumes private lessons with Snape, Harry gets a hint of the many skeltons in the Professors closet. Snape isn't the only one hiding things - Hermione has something up her sleeve and it's driving Ron mad. What's the problem with Draco Malfoy? Meanwhile, someone we lost is working his way back to the wizarding world.

Post OotP- Poor Ron Weasley isn't one to sit and sulk, even if the girl of his dreams shoots him down. Hogwarts has a new Don Juan. Ron Weasley - laides man? It's true, and Hermione is certainly not pleased about it. Harry and Ron's friendship breaks new grounds, and Hogwarts students get free entertainment with their luncheon.

As Harry and Ron struggle to save face, they both deny any interest in one another. Only Hermione sees any hint of the truth. Snape reveals a moment from his past (what's with him anyway?) and leaves Harry wondering. A chapter to leave you curious...
