"How long is it before we leave?" Astoria Greengrass asked, looking up with some anticipation.

A large bulging backpack was placed at her feet, and her Slytherin green robe was removed from her T-shirt and jeans, which are common among Muggle girls.

This was the fourth time she had asked this question tonight, although she was still packing her things the first three times.

Jon Hart looked down at his watch, "Forty-five minutes to go...... Is your sister ready?"

"I guess so......" Astoria said nonchalantly, "Forty-five minutes to go...... Jon, come with me......"

Without saying anything, she took Jon's hand.

"Where?" Jon kept up with her.

"Hmph, keep it a secret for now. Astoria smiled, then continued to trot and lead the way.

The two of them walked through a hallway, then up a few stairs to a small platform. There was no door on the landing of the staircase, and Astoria pushed Jon and pointed to the ceiling, where there was a round trapdoor with a bronze plaque carved into it with an elk.

Jon looked at the elk, "How can we go up?"

As if to answer his question, the elk suddenly shifted its head, and the trapdoor opened, revealing a silver ladder at Jon's feet.

"You go first. Astoria said, grinning toothily and letting go of her hand.

So Jon went up first.

......

Climbing up the silver staircase, they seemed to have reached the very top floor of Greengrass Manor.

Jon was a little surprised by the sight in front of him, and the bluestone paved path was green and fragrant...... On the top floor of the manor, there is a small garden. Since it is summer, the flowers are surrounded by purple and red, and the air is filled with a charming fragrance.

"I didn't expect that!" Astoria smirked, "Keep coming with me." ”

She took Jon's hand again.

The shoes of the two stepped on the bluestone slab on the ground, and finally came to a somewhat abrupt marble that appeared in the middle of the road.

Astoria climbed up cautiously, sat down, and then patted her side, motioning for Jon to sit down.

"That's great!" Jon couldn't help but compliment.

"This is my secret stronghold. Astoria's mouth lifted slightly, and Jon grabbed Jon's hand again as she climbed onto the marble.

"Ever since I was a child, whenever I had something to worry about, I would run here to see the moon!" she said leisurely.

Jon looked up, and sure enough, a bright moon hung high in the sky.

And tonight's moon seems to be extraordinarily round, light as silk clouds, clustered around the bright moon, from deep to shallow, if there is nothing......

"I don't think I can calm down!" Astoria continued, "It's our first time, let's hang out together!"

"If the Isle of Man doesn't count......" Jon replied casually.

"Of course it doesn't count!" Astoria looked at it as she nudged Jon again, "How long?"

"Forty minutes!" Jon patiently looked down at his watch again.

"How can time pass so slowly!" Astoria grumbled softly.

The two of them were silent for a moment.

Everything is quiet, and the space between heaven and earth is empty and vast.

"Hey, Jon. Astoria asked abruptly, "When did you start liking me?"

"Of course, I liked it at first sight. Jon said without thinking.

"Liar!" Astoria pursed her lips and gave Jon a blank look, "This answer is not sincere at all, it is definitely perfunctory to me." ”

"No ......"

"Absolutely...... On the first day we met, you murdered me, but I remember very well ...... Astoria "staring" at Jon, as if to say, I have a grudge.

"Actually......" Jon paused, then smiled and said, "I don't know......"

“...... I don't know exactly when I started liking you. Jon's tone gradually became calmer: "Was it the first glimpse on the train, or the Potions class, the day and night together, or the beauty at the Christmas Ball...... I don't know ...... either."

“...... Since I don't know, it can only be - every time we get along, I like you a little more, every time we speak, your voice is more unforgettable in my mind, and every time we get along, it makes your position in my heart more and more important......"

“...... So, when did I first like you? That was the first sight, of course!"

Astoria's smile grew thicker and thicker, and she turned to ask, "Then why do you like me?

“...... If you like it, it's not really like. I don't know why I like you, maybe at first I just had the attitude of admiring a beautiful little girl, and as time went by, I gradually noticed the beautiful figure around me, and I was very happy when I was with you, and when the professor mentioned your name to his classmates, I couldn't help but prick up my ears......" Jon didn't embellish his words, and said from the bottom of his heart:

“...... After actually getting in touch with you, I began to get to know you more and more, and it was precisely because the more I got to know you, the more I found that I liked ......"

"......I like you who always love to smile with your lips, you who have a small temper but don't show your face, you who are gentle on the outside but strong on the inside, you who hide secrets and pain in your heart, you who work hard to learn magic, you who grow up with me, you who meticulously assist me in making potions, you who cheer me on at the Triwizard Tournament, you who are glamorous at the Christmas Ball, you who don't like boys to entangle, you who occasionally play a little petty, I like you who cry for me, I like you who fight against the curse and never give in, I like it, I just like it......”

As he spoke, Jon was stunned.

How could I say such a sensual thing?

Astoria stayed there, and it seemed like it took a long time for Astoria to react-

"Jon!it's all up to you!," she said coquettishly, turning her head away, "It's so red and hot that my eyes are a little wet...... If my sister and mother saw it, they wouldn't know what I did...... I'm so ashamed......"

"I'm going to wash my face!" she jumped off the marble and ran away with her head down.

Although there is an uncontrollable smile on his face.

Jon simply half-reclined on the marble, looking at the moon in the sky.

Today's wind, a little noisy?
