Chapter 13

Revenge or Romance

Harry rose from his seat to hug Ron, “you finally did it, and you forgave her”
“I can’t believe it myself, but were going slow and im sure this time third times a charm” smiled Ron sitting down “I’m looking forward to a new start with her we are going to forget the past, I can’t let it dictate our future, that scum bag will get what’s coming to him even if I don’t get to him”
Harry looked at him worried “just forget about him, move on your with her, you love her and she doesn’t want anyone but you”
“I know, but -” he leaned back in his seat and crossed his legs on the desk as Romlin walked in “So your back today, had a nice holiday”
“Fantastic, just planning some revenge”
“Just ignore him” laughed Harry “He’s back with Hermione now so he needs more reasons to be miserable or to start fights”
“Ah well you know how it is with me I get all the revenge from the girls I break up, with I could help you out” Said Romlin sitting at the desk opposite them and taking papers from his draws.
“Well being hung naked from your apartment window by your ankle is hardly a fitting revenge for someone now, unless it’s your poor Jamie casting the spells”
“How did you find out about that?” he turned red and sunk down in his chair.
“I’m your boss I have my ways” laughed Harry “though I was never able to find out what Louisa or Katie did to you”
“I was lucky with those two; they wanted something other then that kind of revenge it was more like break up -”
“Feet off the desk Weasley, you’re at work not in your living room” Ron sat up hastily while Romlin and Harry suppressed laughter. Pascal Delaney had entered, his clean cut suit showed under his jet black robes and his manner suggested that of a Percy type of approach.

“I have a new case for you three, there’s been a sighting of Juniper Hazel in the welsh countryside, as you know she is highly dangerous and I need hardly remind you it is off upmost importance to catch her as she holds the key to the uprising of Voldemort’s old followers around the country. You will be taken by portkey as usual and any force necessary to take her in will be allowed but keep in mind we need her alive so no unforgivables got it”

“Yes Sir” they all replied.
“Harry, as the superior officer I expect you to take charge in this case, the utmost care is required she is rarely seen and generally able to cover her tracks”

“Yes Pascal” Replied Harry “we’ll get her, don’t worry”

Then standing up quickly armed them self’s with wands, placed on there travelling robes and set off down the hallway to the portkey office.

“Im so happy for you two” Smiled Ginny handing her a cup as they left the queue. Sitting down at the table Hermione started again. “it’s just so, well I’m still in shock, after waiting for so long I’d given up hope he’d ever forgive me I almost can’t believe it myself, but I have to thank Harry again”
“Well we always knew he’d come round in the end and he did” taking a sip of coffee after removing her gloves. They sat in the cafeteria of the Holy head harpies training ground, the sun shined through the window as they talked.
“So now you can forget about Malfoy, he’s done his damage and you have both overcome it”
“I know, it’s so wonderful, I have already forgotten him”
Ginny smiled “So have you told the rest of the family, but I think they’ll guess by the fact Ron’s not moping around anymore”
“Yes, erm your mum kind of walked in on us kissing” giggled Hermione her cheeks flushed red “It was quite embarrassing, though Ron did say she had came in while he had no trousers or underwear on the other day”
“She does that a lot; we need to remind her to knock.” Ginny smiled “She got so mad when she found Harry in my room once, he had fallen asleep in the chair while we had been talking and I had slept on the bed, he woke up and laid down next to me and we had just began to kiss when we got ‘GINNY WEASLEY’”
Hermione smiled “This was more like, ‘Oh my god, it’s a miracle’, she was that surprised” Laughed Hermione.
Ginny smiled sipping the warm tea “I bet she’s pleased, she’ll be talking weddings next. She did the same when the twins told her they had girlfriends”
“Well I don’t think were ready for that, give us a few months to get settled and then a few years”
“It might come sooner then you think look at me and Harry”
“Yes, but you two had no problems what so ever, and you never slept with someone else your ex despised”
“Ok I see your point, I think we’ll go with the give you two more time argument when dear old mum brings up wedding dresses rather then I slept with my boyfriends sworn enemy”
“Can we talk about something other then that slime ball?”
“Most definitely”
They chatted about everything but that for half an hour until Hermione decided she’d better go and do some work.

“Well I’d better leave you to practice you have a match coming up and you have to win cause me and Ron are coming”
“Ok, I’ll see you soon” she hugged her “bye, bye” and replaced her gloves just as Hermione apparated.

“So how was training with Ginny” Asked Ron as he and Hermione sat at the table in his flat.
“It was great, she really is amazing on a broom looking forward to the match, and I told her we’ll get tickets”
“Sound great, I’ll call up tomorrow”
She smiled “I’ve already got them, I was there so I though there’s no point in waiting so she got some for us, half price for relatives”
“Even better” he reached over and held her hand “I’m glad we worked things out, I think my mums happier then we are”
“There’s no way she’s as happy as me, I love you Ronald Weasley I really do and no matter what happens that will never change”

Sitting in her office the next day he strolled in “Hello Hermione, I heard your back with him, congratulations, though I thought we had something really special” he smirked.
“Get out”
“I really do miss you” he sat down on her desk, his eyes cold and as grey as ever.
“Leave now” she never looked up from the papers she was reading.
“But I suppose you don’t cheat do you, you just make other’s do it”
She pulled out her wand and placed it in his face right between his eyes “Get out”
“Oh don’t worry, I’m going, I just had to come and congratulate you” he got up and walked out the door. With a flick of her wrist it slammed it behind him his white blonde hair and black robes apparating with a smile on his face.
