Mum and Dad have been giving the two of us sly looks and grins when they thought we weren't looking. Dad has warmed up to Harry now that he's been hanging out with him more and Harry has taken like a fish to water when it comes to tinkering with cars with him. It's nice to see them bonding, it fills me with hope that once everything calms down after the war we'll get the chance to just be a family. I know for a fact they know that I'm not exactly a pure little princess anymore, that's not really due to a lack of subtlety and more to do with the fact that my mother caught me straddling him in my bedroom at midnight. My dad isn't privy to that little bit of information as she just winked at me and shut the door but even with that glowing encouragement having one's parents intrude on a moment like that kills the mood faster than you can say oops. That night Harry retreated to his room with a face resembling a tomato and I tried my hardest to simply sink into my bed. Sirius and Remus have been around to visit too, Harry initially tried to stay with Sirius this summer giving some tripe about not wanting to be a burden but Sirius vetoed it saying and I quote "If you'd rather shack up with me in my family's dearest attempts to turn depression into décor instead of spending the summer in a nice house with a lovely girlfriend then I'm afraid I'd have to send you to Saint Mungos for a brain scan." We all had a good giggle at that and then he proposed that He and Remus come visit twice a week to make up for lost time. Harry looked as if christmas had come early.
