A/N: SO, I had an idea to check in with some of our other couples and this is what happened. Forgive me? Hopefully, I will be back to focusing on our favorite pairing in the next chapter as I am planning a simple sort of BDSM scene for them. (Nothing annoys me more than a badly written scene of that sort. If people are new to kink, there should be no bullwhips, cat'o nines, ceiling suspensions, or anything else that does not speak to a couple's newness. This is just MY pet peeve, your mileage may vary)
Anywho, you know the rest of my plea. R&R!!

"Tracey, I know your upset. Hell, I'm upset but I can't sit around and be useless! There are too many dark wizards still unaccounted for and not enough battle-hardened Aurors left! What would you have me do?"
This argument was NOT new. In fact, it had been ongoing since the first of the year. Quite frankly, Harry was more than annoyed by it, he was ready to give in and file for an annulment. Of course, this meant that he would have to give up his life in the Wizarding world but at this juncture, he was just over it.
"Harry, can't you at least LISTEN to what I am saying! I am not telling you to give up being an Auror nor am I saying that I expect a friggin' life filled with laziness. What I AM saying is that if the MInistry expects us to be fruitful and fuckin' multiply then we need to have sex more than once a month. You are six months into your training and the top of your class. However, we have been married since December fuckin' twelfth and I have seen you three times, THREE, since that date!" Tracey paused, her voice hitching slightly as tears threatened to overwhelm her. "All I want is for you to spend a week with me while the school is on Spring break. Hell, Ron has seen Pansy at least twice a month, for entire weekends, since they got married! Do you dislike me that much?"
Harry paused and then hurried forward, enfolding the girl in his embrace. "No, Tracey, it's not like that, I promise. I don't have an opinion because as you've pointed out, I have not really seen you nor have I had the chance to get to know you. I am sorry. Maybe I can get the second of April through the ninth off, that way we'll be together for Easter. I don't think the MInistry would have an issue."
The sniffling, dark-haired Slytherin nodded, hiding her face against her husband's chest. If he could take the time off, she'd at least get the first week of Spring Break with him and that was better than she'd actually hoped for.
"Thank you, Harry."
In the library, Theodore and Luna were having a similar conversation, well except for the fact that they were choosing to stay in the school when vacation started. However, Theo had found that conversing with Luna was sometimes a trifle disconcerting.
"...I think you are more worried about my supposed wrackspurt issue than you are about finalizing our arrangement for Easter break."
"Theodore, why should I worry? You will do enough of that for both of us. There are much more pleasant things we could be doing," Luna's airy soprano broke the silence even as her wide eyes glanced around the empty library, head tilted slightly to the left. "You should have been in Ravenclaw. No romance at all." She sighed. "I don't know why I expected differently. My wand tree's bowtruckle warned me..." Her words stopped.
"Luna, I have no problem...wait how do you know the exact tree your wand came from?" Theo sounded thoroughly confused, which was very rare.
"Don't you know where YOUR wand came from? I thought everyone did...well except for Harry and Hermione. But that is to be expected from them. They did not grow up here, you know."
"Luna, dearest, focus."
Luna's eyes snapped to her husband's face, all trace of empty-headedness, gone. "Do NOT tell me that I need to focus. My scores are higher than yours in ALL classes. I only appear to be stupid and unfocused to those who deem my extracurricular interests as beneath them." As suddenly as a rain squall, her bad mood dissipated. "You really should do something about the wrackspurts, Theodore. I just know they are making your brain fizzy, otherwise, you would have figured out our plans by now."
In the Astronomy tower, another pair were conversing but oddly enough, neither Pansy nor Ron seemed to need any words to do so. Hell, their communication lacked nothing but clothing, a bed...and some decency. After all, Filch caught them, just when Pansy was giving her very enthusiastic agreement to whatever Ron had previously suggested.
All over Hogwarts, young couples were doing what married people do; whether that be to argue, sleep or engage in sexual acrobatics. Ginny and Blaise were engaging in the second option. Draco and Hermione were indulging in a late night snack after enjoying themselves and each other, acrobatically.
"Do you think Tracey and Harry will be alright, Hermione?"
"Yes. Harry hates to hurt people but he is so focused right now that most others get pushed to the background. Once he knows that he has been neglecting his duty to his wife? He will move heaven and hell to fix it." Hermione paused. "That has always been one of the best things about him."
She reached over to tousle her husband's messy bed head, her honey brown eyes sparkling with glee. "I hope to train you into those same sorts of qualities, one day, Mister Malfoy."
Draco smirked. "Only training happening between us, wife, is what happens to YOU behind closed doors."
Hermione grinned. "Touche'."
