Singing
Chapter 1: Grimauld Place
Hermione, Ron, the twins and Ginny had tried, once more, to convince the order members that we should be allowed to attend the meeting that was about to take place unsuccessfully. I let them argue as I still wouldn't speak unless I had to.
As we were being pushed out of the kitchen, Hermione looked at me.
"Tell them Harry! Your dreams. We know you have them. You see what Voldemort is doing don't you."
I groaned, and glared at Hermione. Then, I turned to face the entire order which was gathered there. As I looked at the shocked or worried expressions on over half of their faces I racked my brain for a song. I think I have just the one.
"Everybody tells me that it's so hard to make it,
so hard to break it, there's no way to fake it.
Everybody tells me that it's wrong what I'm feeling
I shouldn't believe in the dreams that I'm dreaming."
As I watched the Order I grinned. They all looked taken aback. Then, Sirius was laughing at the other's expressions and Tonks had recovered from her shock and was grinning. Then she started singing as well.
"I hear it every day, I hear it all the time,
I'm never gonna amount to much,
But they're never gonna change my mind, oh!
Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know,
Something I don't know, something I don't know.
Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know,
Something I don't know, something I don't know.
How many inches in a mile, what it takes to make you smile.
Teach ya not to treat me like a child, baby.
Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know,
Something I don't know, something I don't know.
Tell me, tell me something I don't know.
Tell me, tell me something I don't know!"
Sirius, Remus, and the twins (who had snuck back in) having noticed that Tonks was also singing, pushed her in front of the room so that she was standing in the spotlight next to me. They then put sonorous charms on us and suddenly, we were quite a bit louder.
"Everybody tells me I don't know what I'm doing.
This life I'm pursuing, the odds I'll be losing.
Everybody tells me that it's one in a million, one in a billion, one in a zillion.
I hear it every day, I hear it all the time.
I'm never gonna amount to much.
But they're never gonna change my mind, oh!
Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know.
Something I don't know, something I don't know.
Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know.
Something I don't know, something I don't know.
How many inches in a mile, what it takes to make you smile.
Get ya not to treat me like a child, baby.
Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know,
Something I don't know, something I don't know.
So here's the track.
Like a surfer make you wait,
Like medinna make you say,
I'm ready!"
To everyone's great surprise (even Ron, and Hermione's) I started dancing.
Then, seeing me dancing, Tonks started to dance as well, (although, she was just dancing in place.)
"Are you ready for it?"
"Yeah, I'm ready for it"
"Really ready for it?"
"Yeah, I'm ready for it!"
"Let's get ready for this."
"I'm on my way,
I know I'm,
gonna get there someday.
It doesn't help when you say,
It won't be easy!"
Fred and George walked along the wall towards me and when they were behind me they started dancing in rhythm with me.
Then, to Molly's great disappointment, Charlie and Bill got up and joined us.
(Our dancing was a funky hip-hop/breakdance combination.)
"Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know,
Something I don't know, something I don't know.
Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know,
Something I don't know, something I don't know.
How many inches in a mile, what it takes to make you smile.
Teach ya not to treat me like a child, baby.
Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know,
Something I don't know, something I don't know.
Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know,
Something I don't know, something I don't know.
Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know,
Something I don't know, something I don't know.
How many inches in a mile, what it takes to make you smile.
Here I raised my voice as this really bothered me more than anything, and I wanted to leave an impression.
Teach ya not to treat me like a child, baby.
Tell me, tell me, tell me something I don't know,
Something I don't know, something I don't know."
Ginny, Ron, Hermione, Lupin and Sirius started clapping.
Slowly everyone was clapping. Even Snape and Mad-eye Moody!
We took our bows.
"Okay, that was wonderful but you all need to get out of here so we can hold our meeting."
Then, Molly tried to grab Bill, Charlie, and Tonks but they were resisting.
"I think that they should be allowed to stay and attend the meeting." Bill said.
"All those in favor?" Charlie asked.
Of course all of us kids immediately said "yes!" and came to stand in a line with Tonks, Bill and Charlie at the center.
Sirius was quick to come over and Remus came over a minute later. Kingsley Shacklebolt looked like he wanted to come over but then decided against it when he heard the whispered words,
"If they want to stand by the kids so badly they can just leave the meeting like the kids."
"Spells on the count of three. Shoot randomly. Only drive them away. Use ticklers and the like. Try not to hit them with stunners but stupefy is okay."
We watched as Moody, McGonnagal, Snape and others stood up.
"Link arms!" Tonks shouted.
We did and thereby created a human wall.
"We are not moving anywhere."
Next thing I know I am dodging spells of every sort.
"AHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!" I turned my head to sirius as he screamed. He was covered in green and silver stripes and was fending off water balloons.
I was reminded that I needed to find cover and leave the room when the carpet was transfigured into ice and a wind charm hit me pushing me and the others out of the room and into the corridor.
"Hey! you can't put us out too!" yelled Remus.
"You guys were adamant that the kids stayed and you formed a wall. Therefore you five will not be allowed to come to meetings for the rest of the christmas break. Instead you can keep the kids company." a voice came from behind the door.
"Darn!"
"Well, what do we do while they're in the meeting."
"We could clean." Hermione shrugged and made a face.
"No Way!" was the unanimous response.
"There isn't really anything else to do."
"I know! We can decorate the house." Sirius cried. He then walked to the living room. We followed him and were just in time to see him rip down the black drapes covering one of the windows.
"Remus, Charlie get the other two drapes will you."
They did so and then Sirius conjured hammers and pliers.
"Everyone get some tools then go over to a window open it, and knock the planks of wood blocking it, off."
The twins got a window first and with two identical grins of glee, started smashing the wood to pieces.
The rest of us knocked the other planks of wood off a bit more calmly and quietly except Sirius who was just as chaotic.
When we were finished the room looked a lot better.
"We need paint next." Tonks declared.
Sirius immediately conjured red paint, brushes, rollers, two ladders and other stuff you need to paint a room.
"No way!" Tonks yelled. "We are not painting this room red!" She then conjured purple paint.
"Maroon!" yelled the twins looking at Ron who then yelled "Orange!" George then yelled "lime green!" Remus conjured the paint for them and then conjured his suggestion of "Blue and White."
"Gold!" Charlie yelled as he conjured said paint.
"Pink!" Ginny yelled and Tonks conjured it for her.
"Peach!" Hermione yelled. Bill conjured it for her and then conjured "Yellow!" for himself.
Twenty minutes later they stopped fighting as they were completely surrounded by paint cans.
"Harry..." Charlie said.
"yes?"
"How?"
"Lot's of experience." Harry said.
The rest of the group turned around.
While they had been busy arguing I had started painting. I mixed cans of white, yellow, gold, and a little bit of peach and red together. I had finished painting three walls and just had a little bit of the fourth wall left to do.
"It looks good." Ginny said.
"Yeah. Let's keep it this way, okay."
"Sure." Everyone agreed.
"You know there are plenty of other rooms you guys can paint while we wait for this to dry." I said as I painted the last stroke.
"Or I can do this, SICCUS!" Bill yelled and all the paint was suddenly dry.
"Now we need to do something with this carpet. Preferably ,throw it out." I said.
"Okay boss." The twins said.
"Yeah Harry. We trust you to direct us in terms of decorating."
"Okay then. The carpet goes."
"Uh, how do we get it up?" Remus asked.
Everyone looked at each other.
"You guys have no idea do you?" I asked shaking my head. They were hopeless.
I walked over to the corner and picking up a hammer from before I used the two prongs on it's back to pull up the nails holding it in place.
I then lifted it up for every one to see and told them to get to work.
Another fifteen minutes later I surveyed my team.
"Ok! Now we can get rid of this rug. Sirius, go over to that corner and do what I tell you to do in a few minutes. Every one else who doesn't have an underage restriction on their magic get rid of these paint cans and ladders. The rest of you lot help carry the chairs and tables and stuff out of the room please." I then walked over to the corner next to the one Sirius was standing by and pulled the corner of the carpet up before jumping to the space where there was now no any carpet.
"Sirius do the same thing I just did."
We then rolled the carpet up and Remus banished it.
"Some one, scorgify the floor please." They did and now the room looked really good.
Just then they heard a loud "What in the world?"
We turned around and saw the order members staring in confusion at the furniture stacked in the hall.
"What are you doing?" Mrs. Weasley cried and came running towards us. "You can't just take all the furniture out of a room!" when she got to the door her jaw dropped.
A moment later the rest of the order pushed past her to see what the matter was. They too were shocked.
"You guys did this?" Snape asked disbelievingly.
"Nope. Harry did it."
"You guys helped!" harry protested.
"We just opened the windows."
"Tore down the curtains"
"And moved stuff."
"You painted the walls and knew how to take up the carpet."
"You guys need new furniture." Kingsley said.
"Yeah we do."
"We"ll bring furniture over here for you."
"Send Tonks, Kingsley, Charlie and Bill."
"Okay."
The next day we had furniture.
This routine went on for the next couple of days until christmas.
