Chapter Forty – Seven

Ginny sat on her bed, she missed him already and she thought it was almost ridiculous even though it was particularly great to feel that way about someone. She had said bye to Hermione who looked like she was ready to go home and cry herself to sleep and had heard the door slam when Ron left. She lay back as her mother came in silently and sat on the edge of the bed. The conversation they had had in the last holiday’s came to mind and the thought of what her mother might say to her wasn’t in the least bit pleasant.
“Ginny”
“Yes?”
“I was wondering if I could talk to you.”
“About?”
“Harry”
“Hmm – Depends on what you’re going to say about him” It was going to be that talk wasn’t it and it was going to be uncomfortable, she thought to herself.
“Well Ginny” she sounded like she was trying to word it properly, not a good sign. “I want you to tell me what you did when you spent last night there and the nights with him at school that Ron has been talking about especially to do with that Dean boy”
“Please” she sat up, “It’s bad enough Ron asking me questions like that”
“Ginny please”
“And next your going to ask me if were being safe in muggle terms”
Mrs Weasley nodded slightly,
“Once, we have only been together once mother, I think i'm old enough to decide who I sleep with and anyway, Harry may have grown up a wizard but he did live in the muggle world, we are sensible and more so then flaming Dean and Ronald” she finished acusingly.
“Ok” said Molly quietly,
“Your acting like this is the end of the world, I’m a big girl mum, I can make decisions and to move out and live with Harry is one I’ve made”
“But isn’t this too soon, your only sixteen-”
“You and dad were only sixteen when you eloped, we have a home, we have family, we have money and we have a future”
“What about working and school, what will Harry be doing next year?”
“He has something planned, don’t worry we are looking ahead, not just into next week”
“Like what? What is he going to do to support you both while you’re still in school?”
“It’s not my place to tell you, you’ll have to ask him”
“I’d just don’t think now is a good time, you haven’t been together that long”
“Long enough, we know we’re meant to be together just like you and dad, please mum understand this isn’t just for a little while or to make you and dad or even Ron upset this is because I love Harry and he loves me and we want to be together forever”
“But-”
“You didn’t hear him tell Ron how he felt upstairs or every time he says something too me, you don’t see the way he looks at me or the things he does or even when he thought he was dead. He could hear me mum, he could hear what I was saying when I was telling you let me go to him and begging him to wake up. And he did, for me, just for me he came back to life”

Molly felt a tear escape her eye and she wiped it away hastily, “You can go, but I will miss you Ginny, I will miss you so very much” Ginny pulled her into a hug “Thank you mum”

*****

“We keep going round in circles Ron” Said Harry, sitting on his couch as Ron followed him from the front door into the living room.“Don’t think I don’t know that Harry”
“So tell me, figure it out and tell me what the problem is because no one else can see one but you”
“I don’t want to lose my best friend”
“Erm… Ron, let me just say your not doing a very good job of keeping both me and Hermione as your friends at this stage, and what makes you think I’m not your friend I have never said I don’t want to be”
“You say that now”
“So you’re jealous that I like Ginny over you, is that right cause that’s what it sounds like”
“That’s about the gist of it, yeh” he make an odd kind of grunt and sigh “I’m feeling so stupid now”
“And so you should mate, I love Ginny but your like a brother to me, its completely different to what I feel for her to having you as my best mate, I mean come on it’s not like I’d say you can’t date Hermione because she’s my best friend to and I don’t want her not to be so I’ll try and stop you seeing her altogether”
“I didn’t stop you from seeing Ginny”
“Yes you did, the moment me and Gin first kissed in the middle of that common room you were staring daggers at me and you wouldn’t talk to me after that. Then you ganged up on us with your mother to stop us seeing each other over the summer, and then when she ran away you came after her and me telling us we couldn’t be together because she was your sister and I was putting her in danger”
Ron shrugged his shoulders, “But you were”
“I told you I wouldn’t let anything happened to her and you didn’t trust me, best mates trust each other with there lives and you should have believed Ginny she trusted me with hers” retorted Harry but Ron answered quickly again,
“She still got taken”
“It was my fault, I know that but I got her back, I righted what I had done by not fighting Voldemort for my own body, but you don’t know what its like to have him inside of you, feeling what you do, controlling how you react and feeling his power and his anger under your skin. Its – its – its like having a monster , a dragon living inside of you waiting to be released and then it just burns everything around you and there’s nothing you can do to stop it, tame it and stop it hurting those you love”
“You never said any of this before”
“I’ve told Ginny, you on the other hand, you never asked you were to busy complaining about us”
“Im sorry”
“It’s too late to apologise Ron, its over and I just want to get on with my life and forget Voldemort ever existed and all he’s taken from me. Ginny is my life now and the sooner you understand that the better off you’ll be” Harry got up and walked into the kitchen, he opened the cupboard pulling out two bottles of butter beer, he hoped he had finally gotten through to him though beating it into him might have been quicker and easier since he was so stubborn and unable to see what was right in front of him. He walked back in and handed Ron a bottle.
“Thanks” replied Ron as Harry opened his own bottle and took a swig
“Why did you change your mind so much?”
“I don’t know, maybe it just depended on what mood I was in”
“Great, if only you were happy and well fed all the time we might have avoided this”
“Hey!” laughed Ron “It’s not my fault I was miserable, I don’t ask to be”
“So what made you such a twerp, I mean you’re with Hermione, you had no problem until a few days ago after I woke up, before I died you were fine now I’m back you changed your mind again”
“You lied to her about not sleeping I suppose that’s what triggered my madness this time”
“I didn’t lie I just didn’t tell her and she never asked, that’s gone now we sorted it out so what’s been going on with you since then because you’ve been like a five year old for longer then if it was just that”
“I don’t know, but it probably has something to do with me and Hermione”
“You can tell me you know, it’s not like anyone else will listen”
Ron made an indistinct noise opened his mouth closed it and then spoke quickly, “I’m worried about losing her, its like she said tonight she doesn’t think we have a future but when she’s gone I miss her so much, I feel so miserable without her its like something’s missing inside of me”
Harry smiled “Ron”
“What?”
“Well … that’s love mate” he smirked taking a sip and watching Ron’s face, his ears went red and his mouth gawped slightly as if thinking about it.
“I know what you mean about feeling like that; I felt like that over the summer you all kept me away from Ginny, when I left her to find the Horcruxes and then when she was kidnapped its love, and you might want to tell Hermione before she gives up on you”
“But – I mean -”
“What Ron, if you don’t love her don’t tell her, if you do, tell her and I bet you anything she’ll say the same back”
“She already has said it, but I wasn’t listening, she said she loved me but she didn’t like me”
“Merlin’s beard Ronald, sort out your problems stop acting like a twit when it comes to me and Ginny and she might just start liking you again”
“That easy is it”
“As a matter of fact”
“How do you know, you haven’t had any problems with Ginny, you too get on so well it’s annoying to watch”
“Just because you don’t see us arguing or fighting over things doesn’t mean it doesn’t or won’t ever happen, we talk to each other, we let each other know when we have problems and we sort them out instead of letting them get bigger or even give them a chance to hurt us”
“What have you two ever argued about?”
“You, going to find the Horcruxes, whether we should continue seeing each other…”Harry’s sentence trailed off with his thoughts as he remembered when they first told Ginny’s parents they were together.

“Whether you should keep seeing her, are you mad and why you would even think of breaking up with her -”
“- Maybe because that’s what you all wanted us to do!” said Harry getting angry he finished his bottle and slammed it down on the coffee table, it smashed into a pile of glass and he stared at it as he spoke next “You don’t know how difficult you made us being together, you got in the way so much with your anger and the guilt and your crap excuses. We knew we wanted to be together all along and everyone else just couldn’t see it, we got though it all, she was taken from me, I came back from the dead just for her, we fought and we won and now I just want to be with her for until I die no matter what you or anyone else says”

“Don’t get mad Harry, I said I’m sorry” Replied Ron, eyeing the glass and hoping that next it wouldn’t be his head. Harry noticed and spoke up annoyed with him still.
“You just don’t want me to grab you by the throat again, just don’t get me too angry and it won’t happen I have more self control then that” he folded his arms and sat back in his seat.
Ron watched him thinking over everything, Harry was right and he had been a fool but not without reason. “When you’re angry it’s flipping scary”
“Well now Voldemort’s gone I have a lot of rage I wasn’t able to let out since it would result in my possession or comatose state” he replied sharply “It should be gone soon, let me beat some sense into you and then we might get on”
“No you’re alright” Ron grinned finishing his own drink and placing his own bottle next to the pile of glass, “How about I help you and Gin out tomorrow, we could get Hermione to come to” he looked at his watch “I might go and see her, its not that late”
“Hmm” said Harry in reply and he lay back on the couch looking up at the ceiling. “Now what to do about your mum, there’s no way she’s going to agree to Gin moving in here”
“Who said I agreed to it either?” said Ron crossing his arms his face back,
“No one cares what you think Ron” grinned Harry,
“Well it’s a good job I don’t have a problem with it then, isn’t it” Ron laughed “And Hermione listens to me, sometimes… well I think she listens, she nods and smiles”
“Of course she listens” said Harry suppressing laughter “She must find you so interesting, especially all the blow by blow accounts of every Cannons match over the last what – seven years” he grinned.
