Hermione looked at the ground as she answered, unwilling to show her emotion. "You're family now; every part of my body and my magic tells me that is true. Touching you feels like... home. But I don't know what the future holds. Maybe I'll settle down with you, maybe I'll meet a man and fall in love with him and raise a family, I don't know. But what I need now from you is a foundation built upon friendship and trust. And honestly, right now I don't, and that is going to take some time."
