Disclaimer: JKR's characters and someone's movie. I'm just playing pretend.
So here's the second installment. The first three chapters are going to tell each potential and already couples, story. So the only one left is Ginny and Draco. That's going to be the hardest chapter to write I think. It may take me a couple of hours to write. I have a snow day so I'm not that worried. I'll try and have it up by the end of the day, if not it'll deffintely be out tomorrow.

Ron and Luna's Story
Ron and Luna had been married ten years ago right before the final battle had taken place. To everyone that knew them they were the happiest married couple they knew. Many married couples they knew, or soon to be married like Ginny and Dean, would fight at least once a month, though they always made up. Ron and Luna though had never fought as far as anyone knew> Many were sure they had but that the fights had never been truly bad and were far and few in-between. They only four people who knew this to be false was Harry and Hermione who both happened to apparate over at the wrong moment, and their two children. Nine year old Robert Bilbus, known as Bobby and seven year old Jayne Elisabeth, known as Beth, could hear they're parents fights on an almost daily basis. Neither knew why they fought, that's was just how it had been for as long as they could remember.
Ron worked as the assistant couch to the Tutshill Tornados Quidditch team. He had hoped to play professional Quidditch when he left school but an injury he received in the final battle prevented him from playing. Luna worked as a freelance writer, though many of her articles were published in the Quibbler she was fairly well known in the wizarding community. Both enjoyed their jobs as it provided them with everything they wanted, Luna to stay home with her children but still write and Ron could be near quidditch and still have the off season to spend with his children. Luna had recently started think of going to work, both children attended Muggle grade school in the day and she got bored sitting home by herself. This time that is the cause for the argument both their children are listening to as they sit in the lounge....
"Luna your the one that said you wanted to stay home! Why all of a sudden do you feel the need to go to work? Am I not making enough money?" Ron almost shouted.
"No Ronald. I get bored sitting here all day wit nothing to do. Both Bobby and Beth are in school and it's Harry for goodness sake! Your telling me you don't want me to work for your best friend?" Luna said exasperated. They were just going in circles now.
"I'm not say that. I think it would be great if you worked for Harry, I just don't understand why." Ron said, his voice lower and a little more gentle.
"I'm just bored Ron, I need a change and it's only a few hours a day. So are you fine with me doing this?" She asked stepping closer to him, her voice to lower and more gentle. Ron ran a hand through his hair and looked into her eyes. A small smile came to his lips and he stepped forward and wrapped his arms around her, holding her close.
"Yeah, if it makes you happy do it. I still don't understand though. Who wouldn't want to sit at home all day?" He said his voice teasing her. She looked up at him and smiled.
"Thank you Ron." She kissed him trying to convey all her feelings in the kiss. As much as they fought she truly did love him. Just as the kiss was heating up they heard a noisy from behind.
"Ahem." a voice from behind said. Ron broke apart from Luna and looked up to see Hermione leaning against the door jam. "Seems I caught the end of one great show and the beginning of one that looks very promising."
"Hello Hermione. Where's Harry- oh wait- the Minister." Ron said.
"Harry is at the office I just dropped in to see about Luna's decision. I'm assuming that's what the other show was about." Hermione said.
"What?! The great Harry Potter and Hermione Granger aren't joined at the hip anymore?" Ron asked in mock surprise. Hermione turned a bright shade of red, and Luna whapped him upside the head. "OW! What? I was joking." He said rubbing the spot that his wife had just hit.
"You are so... immature sometime." Luna laughed at Ron's clueless face. "Yes, Hermione, that is what we were talking about and I'll do it."
"Smashing. I'm sure Harry will be glad to know he has one of the best reporters working for him. And I'm happy to have someone who isn't male or over the age 60."
"That bad?" Ron asked still rubbing the sore stop.
"Yeah. Well there is one girl, Mia, but I don't like her much. The rest are either sour- or over sixty. It the worse office either of us has worked in"
"Haven't you been there less then a day? How can you already know you don't like that girl Mia?" Luna asked. It was rare for Hermione to not like someone, and for her to just not like someone from the start was rare. Hermione shrugged it off and continued with the whatever else she had gone there to discuss.
"Both of you are coming to the party tonight too, right?" Hermione asked pulling out a pad of paper and quill.
"Yes. Molly and Arthur are watching the kids for us." Luna said.
"Ok..." Hermione said in a distracted tone, making a note on the paper. If she had looked up at that moment she would have seen Ron rolling his eyes and Luna playfully hitting his arm.
"Umm... is that it Hermione. Luna and I have some unfinished business to take care of before tonight. Hermione looked up and saw Ron pull Luna back to him and blushed.
"Oh. Yes. I'll see you later." Hermione turned to leave when she remembered something and turned back. "Oh! I forgot to warn you, Malfoy is going to be there." Ron's face looked tired all of a sudden and he closed his eyes, running his hand over them.
"Which one? Little or big?" He asked not opening his eyes.
"Little, Draco. We had to. He's been doing a lot of charity work lately and it's a well known fact that none of us like him. So to show the public the Minister doesn't play favorites we had to invite him. Sorry."
"Harry know yet?" Luna asked. Hermione shook her head, she to looking tired all of a sudden.
"No, that's my next order of business." She said.
"I'd wish you luck, but I know that with wands in your hands it's him I have to worry about not you." Ron said. Hermione shook her head, a small smile on her face, and apparated out of the room.
"Tonight won't be boring that's for sure." Ron mumbled before he captured Luna's lips back in his. If either had looked up they would have seen there children sneaking away from the door, smiles on their faces to see that their mum and dad weren't fighting anymore.
