Run Home

Bloody Hell! It's my graduation day! No more Snape, no more McGonagall, and no more Trelawney. Jeez, I hated her predictions. "Death, my dears, death." What a load of crap. Has Harry ever died yet? No.

What am I gonna do for a job? I don't know. I'm not good enough to be a Quidditch player. I know; professional Wizard's Chess player! I'm good at chess. With my grandpa's old set, I'll kick some butt! Maybe since my family's poor, I could be head of the Wizard's Welfare department at the Ministry. I could help the wizarding families who don't have a lot. There could be fundraisers, collections, and food drives! There's my mark on the world.

I'll miss everything in the castle. I think that I'll even miss Dean's West Ham football poster. I really didn't like that poster, though. I know one thing though. I'll miss that poster more than I'll ever miss Snape.

Harry. I know Harry and I will still keep in touch. He's been my best friend since we first met on the train. He'll be the best man at my wedding. He'll be the godfather of my children. I will never forget him. We'll always be friends.

Hermione. Well, she is my fiancée after all. I've loved her ever since we first met on the Hogwarts Express. I knew she was too good for me. It took me four years to ask her out. I was so surprised when she said yes. Now we're going to get married.

Hogwarts hasn't been the same without Fred and George here. There isn't someone to look out for us, of to make us laugh. Filch hasn't had may victims since Fred and George left. Everything's been fine without Percy. No one was there to tell us off for our acts of childishness. I've never been to Hogwarts with Bill or Charlie, so I don't know what it's like to go to school with them. Bill would have been a pretty cool Head Boy. It would be fun to watch Charlie play Quidditch. Now I'm the only one here to look after Ginny. If she didn't tell Hermione something, she told me. Just none of that girl stuff.

The great sport of Quidditch; what is there to say about it? I know. It's the greatest sport in the world. Isn't it so original? I'll tell you one thing; Muggles will NEVER create a sport as cool as Quidditch. I am so glad that I had a chance to play Quidditch with Harry. Hey, the Mirror of Erised was partially right! I was Quidditch captain. I'm kind of glad that I wasn't Head Boy. Too many rules to follow. At least I was made a Prefect. It made Mum happy.

I'm at home now. Fred and George moved out. Fred and Lee have their own joke shop. George is a professional Quidditch Beater. Guess for which team? THE CHUDLEY CANNONS!! How cool is that? Wow. Percy has overtaken Crouch's old spot for the head of the whatever department. I remember when Crouch always called Percy "Weatherby." I miss Fred and George's jokes about that.

I'm walking around those bases that Ginny drew when she was five. While I'm reflecting on my life, I realize the meaning of run home.
