Dominique Weasley's POV
Looking around my grandparents' wedding anniversary party, there was about 500 people there mostly family and close friends and the Irish music was on so loud that I couldn't even hear my own thoughts, my lungs started to feel like mush and my skin started tingling uncontrollably. The place was decorated like it was when Granddad and Grandma got married with a dance floor filled with people, lilac and white tables and chairs and a drinks table where most of the juice including the punch was spiked. Amongst the crowd, I could see Grandma and Granddad dancing traditionally, Teddy and Victoire dancing together in a tight embrace, Mom and Dad kissing passionately and dancing wildly, Louis talking to his girlfriend, Alice, James and Albus surrounded by a crowd of adoring admirers, Lily snogging her boyfriend, Scorpius, Hugo searching the dance floor desperately hoping that someone would dance with him, Rose sitting down on a table by herself trying to concentrate on her studying only agreeing to come because she didn't want Grandma to be upset, Aunt Hermione and Uncle Ron dancing the center of the dance floor, Fred trying to hex Aunt Muriel, Roxanne was kissing her boyfriend, Jackson, Uncle George was playing with his practical jokes, Aunt Ginny was at the drinks table flirting with her boyfriend, Dean, Uncle Charlie talking to Hagrid about Norberta and Uncle Harry watching everybody dancing with a bored expression.
Ever since he divorced Ginny, he has been miserable all of the time. It was like he was draining the happiness out of his life and there was nothing that he could about it except deal with it. After the war with Voldemort, they rekindled their romance, married and have three children but after Lily's eighth birthday, they started to fall apart because of Harry overworking and Ginny feeling unappreciated. They started arguing constantly instead of treasuring each moment that they had together and before Lily went to Hogwarts, they announced that they were getting a divorce. Since then, they agreed to split everything 50/50 between themselves including 12 Grimmauld Place, Harry's inheritance from Sirius, Harry's inheritance from his parents, the motor bike and Lily, James and Albus with them agreeing that they should have them a week haven't really spoken since then and Harry hasn't been around much.
Aunt Ginny moved back into the Burrow much to her mother's dismay and starting dating Dean again but I don't think that they will last. Harry hasn't really been dating anybody recently even though most of the young witches were practically throwing themselves at him. Harry had changed. Before, he was funny, kind and caring Uncle Harry but hearing that Ginny also cheated on him with her ex boyfriend, Michael destroyed him. Harry started sleeping around with different women both witches and Muggles each week to hide his pain but he soon stopped when Aunt Hermione gave him a lecture on how to live his life! Since then, Harry has been seeing women who are younger than him but then just stopped completely. Ever since I was younger, I was fascinated with his story especially how he defeated the Dark Lord and saved Hogwarts. He is amazing! I love his jet black mussed hair and his beautiful green eyes.
Moving past all of the people in the dance floor, I approached him with a bright, radiant smile on my face. People always say that I inherited all of my mother and father's good genes from my mother's silvery blonde hair, my father's blue eyes, my mother's flawless complexion and my father's courage and strength. My silvery blonde hair was in a french plait bun, my mother had done my makeup to perfection and I was wearing a floaty, periwinkle-blue material that matched my eyes. Harry was wearing his black dress robes which made his look so handsome. "Uncle Harry, are you okay?" I asked him, sympathetically. "You look like you would rather be anywhere else rather than here."
"I'm fine." Harry replied, flashing me a heart melting smile. "Just a little overwhelmed. Seeing your ex-wife with her ex-boyfriend, your ex in-laws partying and your children not living with you half the time is overwhelming."
"I'm sorry, Uncle Harry." I replied, placing my hand on his shoulder. "It must be really hard for you to see all of this. Do you want a drink?"
"Yeah." Harry replied, grinning widely. "I would love one. Just a firewhiskey, please. Thanks, Minnie."
Before I moved to the juice table, he grabbed my hand and pulled me much to my surprise. "Call me Harry."
"Ok, Harry." I replied, beaming proudly at him. I have always loved the way that he could make me feel like I was on cloud nine but I didn't love the way that Padma and Parvati approached him and started speaking to him. For some reason, I felt some possessiveness over him in the pit of my stomach which made me want to knock their heads off their shoulders. Returning with the drinks in my hand, he asked me. "So what is a beautiful woman like you talking to me for when you could be dancing with someone? I am sure that there are many boys here who would die to be your boyfriend."
"I have had a bad history with boys, Harry." I replied, "Besides, I am not ready for commitment."
"So what are you going to do, Minnie?" Harry asked me, placing his hand on my shoulder. "Are you going to stay single and live with your Mom and Dad forever?"
"No." I replied, giggling like a schoolgirl at his suggestion. "But wouldn't you want Lily to live with you forever instead of moving out to live with Scorpius?"
"Yeah but I cannot chain her to the house." Harry joked. "I don't want her to hate me."
"Hate you?" I echoed. "Lily could never hate you. She absolutely adores you."
"I know." Harry replied, quietly. "After Ginny and I got divorced, she was so upset."
"Yeah but she forgave you." I said, taking his hand. "It wasn't your fault, Harry. Your marriage fell apart. You were overworking, Ginny cheated on you and your marriage was broken beyond repair."
"We could have tried marriage counselling but she refused." Harry replied, smiling faintly. "You know how stubborn she can be. All she said was that we were done."
"I'm sorry, Harry." I lied, "I'm so sorry."
"Don't be, Minnie." Harry replied, bumping my shoulder with his. "It's not your fault that my wife cheated and that we divorced. What are you doing now?"
"What do you been?" I asked him, confused.
"I mean, what are you doing as a job?" Harry replied, smiling at how cute I looked.
"Oh, I am a Healer at Saint Mungo's." I said, proudly. "I'm surprised that you don't know that."
"So am I." Harry replied, "I guess that we have never really talked."
"I guess so." I said, "You've always been busy with Aunt Ginny, Lily, James and Albus that you have never really noticed me."
"That's not true." Harry replied, smirking at her. "I haven't really noticed anyone since Ginny and I got divorced. Working too hard-"
"To hide your pain." I finished off his sentence.
"Exactly." Harry said. "You understand me better than I do."
"You're too kind, Harry." I replied, getting us some more drinks. After some more firewhiskeys, we were both pretty drunk. So drunk that I felt the Earth rocking beneath me and my mind drifting in and out like the tide. Before I could say anything to Harry, James came over with a girl who looked like a supermodel with her long brown hair and green eyes. As soon as she laid eyes on Harry, she winked at him seductively and bit her lip like she was going to rip him apart. "Dad, I'll see you soon." James said, waving at Harry and leading the girl outside. Ever since James and Albus left home, Harry has been feeling quite lonely in Godric's Hollow.
"Domi." Victoire called, dragging Teddy along with her. "I am going to go home with Ted. I'll see you later."
"Bye." I whispered, quietly. "See you soon."
