Disclaimer: Even if I legally changed my name to JK Rowling I still would not own Harry Potter. I do however own the idea of Havenry and the character Annie. I also do not own Gilmore Girls quotes or the songs used.

Author's Note: Okay, I officially love this chapt. I think it's one of my best fic chapts so far... Songs used are : Black Roses Red and The Story. Also just go with the yelling sequence, it's meant to be funny not angry...I had a hard time picking between The Story by Brandi Carlile and Fix you by Coldplay, I picked the story. But if Coldplay suits you better just pretend it's Coldplay. Also in this chapt, not much happens, but it needed to be written. Thanks Guys!


Yup, there's nothin like a wedding to screw up a family-Luke Danes, Gilmore Girls

Harry Potter: Arms of the Angel

Chapter 2: The Story (aka The Attack of the Vicious Pantyhose...)

avo(annie voice over): Getting to know someone, it's harder than it sounds. Not only do you have to listen, but you have to see. Why is it that we hide our true selves from the world around us? Why do we put up that facade. Is it because we are afraid to be hurt... or judged by the world around us? Or is it that we are scared to face the quandry that is one's self. So it boils down to fear... The real question is why do we allow fear to control us?

As Harry got to know her he concluded that Annie, was truly kind. Not only to Harry but to everyone she had met at the Burrow. Although if you asked her, being nice to Harry wasn't hard... Maybe it was just because Harry, was also a truly kind person... or maybe it was something more. Harry had told Hermione and Ron everything that Remus had spoke to him about Annie... they were just as shocked as he was.

It was the day of Bill and Fleur's wedding. All was a buzz at the Weasleys, considering there were more than 12 people staying there. Mrs. Weasley, couldn't find her corsage. Mr. Weasley was driving Mrs. Weasley crazy with batteries. Fred and George had spiked Bill's pumpkin juice with a muggle alcohol called Vodka... Hermione was having pantyhose whoas. Ginny was trying to avoid Harry due to their recent break up. Annie was looking for Hermione. Harry was looking for Ron,who was looking for Harry, who was avoiding Ginny. Remus and Charlie were watching the mayhem insue.

"Harry!" Ron said outside the door to the girl's room

"Ron!"

"AHHHHH!" Hermione cried falling off her bed, why she was wearing hose on a summer day... no one will know

"Hermione?"

"Harry?" Hermione yelled

"FRED!!!" Mrs. Weasley yelled

"Run!" George advised Fred, who was about to get caught for spiking Bill's juice

"Ron," Fred cowered behind Ron,

"Annie!" Harry said

"Harry.,"

"Annie"

"Ron,"

"Gahhhhhoof!"Hermione squealed as she toppled over

"Hermione?"

"Annie?"

"ARTHUR!" Mrs. Weasley yelled

"GEORGE!" Bill yelled, more like slurred as he stumbled in the crowded hallway

"PANTYHOSE!"

"I'll..." Annie said, giving a look that said "I'll make sure she hasn't been attacked by hose" to a very concerned Ron and Harry

"Thanks"

"Yup"

"Harry..." Ginny said and then turned a corner

"Wait..." He chased after her. Hastily turning the same corner

"Hermione?"

"Annie"

"ahhhhhhh!"

"Hermione?"

"Ron?"

"ANNIE!"Hermione yelled

"What?"

"Falling!" But it was too late, they fell off the bed

"BILL!" Fred whimpered as Bill appeared

"AHHHH!" George yelled

"RUN!"

"PANTYHOSE!"

(Side conversation between Charlie and Remus, "I've never tried to put on pantyhose, but it sounds dangerous...")

"FRED"

"GEORGE!"

"BILL!"

"ARTHUR..."

"GINNY!" Harry chased after a fuming Ginny, who's face was as red as her flaming red hair.

"HARRY!" Ginny ran away faster

"Hermione?" Still concerned for his flustered friend, who was being helped by Annie, get into her pantyhose

"JUMP!" Annie insisted to Hermione

"Ron?"

"Annie!!!!" Hermione Lept, And down they were again... on the floor. And all this, was caused by that flighty temptress... pantyhose.

"I didn't bloody say tackle me to a heap..." Annie groned as Hermione landed on top of her. The panty hose flinging out of the window

"Maybe I won't wear them!" Hermione said panting heavily, as the wind had been taken out of her.

"Lovely, really smashing. Would've been great to hear that oh, five minutes ago..." Annie yelled, and then muttered to herself "Being by panty hose... not on my to do..."

"You got me drunk..." Bill stumbled into the door of the girls room opening it. To find Hermione and Annie helplessly wounded on the floor.

"Just to calm your nerves really..." George said stepping on Hermione's hand,

"I wasn't nervous thank you!"

"Ow that was my hand GEORGE!"

"Arthur if you so much as speak to me I will crush your..."

"Harry, I can take care of myself"

"Ginny, I fully realize that..."

At this point everyone was in the same room, yelling their heads off, for no reason at all really...

"Harry!" Ron yelled

"Ron why are you yelling at me...?"

"Just felt a bit left out really..."

At this point Hermione and Annie were the only ones getting along inthe room, and decided it wise to end the fight before an all out blood bath...

"SILENCE! This is a wedding," Hermione started...

"There are ugly bridesmaids dresses with butt bows and possessed panty hose and you are all ruining it..." Annie spoke as everything in the room just kind of froze.

"With your stupid pranks," Hermione glared at Fred and George,

"And your drama," Annie looked at Harry and Ginny, but it wasn't a glare like Hermione's

"And your batteries,"

"And trusting Fred and George to make you a drink without spiking it..."

"Hmph..." Both girls finished and walked out of the room arm in arm

"That was a bit scary..." Ron quivered reffering to the girls teaming up as one front.

"A bit..."

And the fighting broke out again...


Can I ask you a question please, promise you won't laugh at me... honestly I'm standing here afraid I'll be betrayed

The wedding, as expected, was beautiful; Even with a drunken Bill stammering down the aisle... with the fringe benefit of Fred and George recieving a death glare from a peeved, and fuming Fleur.

But at the reception, sitting at the table byhimself while everyone else was dancing, Harry couldn't help but feel a little sorrowful... Sirius could've been here... Dumbledore, could've been here... and then he thought about Annie, something rather someone he had been thinking about alot for some reason lately...She had gotten to him, and he hardly even knew her. Her smile, the way her hair curled... the pools of water that were her eyes... "Snap out of it man!" Harry thought to himself, and actually hit his own forehead... "Ow..."

And speak of the devil, Annie appeared...

As twisted as it seems, I only fear love when it's in my dreams
So let in the morning light and let the darkness fade away

"Hey you. Not a dancer?" Annie sat down across from Harry strumming her fingers on the table. She looked pretty as always, in a light silvery blue dress that brought out her eyes...

"I only dance when drunk or insane... and since I am neither..." Harry spoke a little too bitterly. Apparently they were the only ones in the room not dancing or eating or looking relatively happy...

"Killjoy much?" She laughed as she spoke, her nose wrinkling a bit whe she did.

"Insane much?" Harry jested, loosening his tie...and couldn't help but give into the moral battle in his head he was flirting, with Annie, he was flirting with Sirius's daughter... Boy was it hot.

"Well you know last week I was chased down the street by large men, wearing white, with butterfly nets. So insanity is a possibility..." She gave a heavy pause noticing Harry wasn't quite himself..."

You wanna go for a walk or something?" Annie said softly extending her hand...

Can you turn my black roses red?
Can you turn my black roses red?

"Yeah, I'd like that." Harry spoke clear and very sure... and took her hand

Drowning in my loneliness
How long must I hold my breath?...


"Mione, would you like to dance?" Ron asked sheepishly

"I'd love to Ronald..."

"That must've been hard..." Annie said, offering empathy to Harry. The had walked and walked and walked, and talked about everything. It was so easy to talk to her, she understood more than Ron and Hermione ever could, try as they may, they hadn't lost parents.

"So what about you? I've talked on and on about myself.. and yet nothing from you... A little Mysterious are we Annie Black?"

"Well if you must know," And then she began to rattle it off, "Annie Black, daughter of Sirius Orion Black and Gwendolyn Graham, age seventeen, birthday is January 23, 5'2", one hundred and two pounds, pianist,"

"Pianist...?"

"Wait I'm not done, played softball for a while, secondbase, for about eight years... Uh, aquarius, favorite book; To Kill A Mockingbird, favorite color; blue, favorite flower; Iris's. Um hmmm what else, I grew up in Oxburrow, went to muggle school for a while. Had a seemingly normal life if you overlook the Werewolves and Safe Harbor Shields... Oh I went to catillian class for a while, learned how to ballroom dance but was promptly kicked out when I blasted my partner into a wall when he got to handsy..."

I climbed across the mountain tops
Swam all across the ocean blue
I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules
But baby I broke them all for you
Because even when I was flat broke
You made me feel like a million bucks
You do
I was made for you

"So..." Annie ended..."Class dismissed..."

"I miss him you know..." Harry said looking down, and absentmidedly running a hand through his already windblown hair.

"I know..." Annie uttered softly, both knew who they were talking about... Sirius.

"I'm sorry... I shouldn't..."

"You shouldn't what...?"

Harry hesitated, "Talk about him like he was my father."

"Harry, don't apologize for speaking the truth. I never really knew him the way you did. Yes he was my father, but Remus was my dad..."

"You would've liked him."

"Yeah, I think I would have. But I guess, we'll never know, will we? Do you ever regret what's happenend to you?"

"No, I don't. Because if I didn't have those things happen to me, I wouldn't be who I am today. That's what counts, it's not the fact that it hurts getting there, it's the fact that I survived..."

You see the smile that's on my mouth
It's hiding the words that don't come out
And all of my friends who think that I'm blessed
They don't know my head is a mess

"I guess we should be getting back..."

"Yes, probably... we don't want to worry anyone." Harry started to walk away...

They walked to the Burrow in comfortable silence, hearing the jests and laughter of the remaining wedding crowd. Just as they approached the door...

"Harry? Wait... thanks for this." Annie started walking towards the still Harry Potter

All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am

"For what?" And just then his question was answered. At first he didn't know what had happened, and then he realized, she kissed him...

It's true...I was made for you...
