A/N" I do not own or will never own anything about Harry Potter or by J.K. Rowling. This is my second Harry and Hermione story. It won't be long, I promise.
Finding Your Courage
Chapter 7
The Portkey suddenly dropped them inside a house that looked very simpler to Bagshot's in Godric's Hollow. Getting up they looked around a bit just to make sure there wasn't any more surprises in store for them. Finally after making sure they where safe Harry collapsed on the bed and breathed a small sigh of relief.
Looking down he could see the letter Bathilda had given him had fallen on the bedroom rug. Picking it up he stared at the envelope not sure if he should read it now or later.
Placing it on the bed Harry began to pace back and forth anxiously trying to make a decision about the note.
" This is stupid, I am a Griffandor I am suppose to brave" spoke Harry as he walked over to the envelope and pulled the letter out.
" Dear Miss Bagshot,
Thank you for your visit last week. It is good to talk to someone again, as all these extra protections on the house makes it hard for us to contact any one in the Order. Also thanks again for you're advice on helping with James. He just gets so frustrated having to sit around and hide while others are out there fighting and dieing. On a happier note Harry loves that solar system toy you got for his crib. You should see his green eyes lite up every time I spin it and the planets come to life. James did manage to get a hold of Daily Prophet. We were stun to hear about what had happen to Frank and Alice. I guess things like that prove that we have to keep fighting. I know Dumbledore wants us to move again. Please tell him we'll be ready tomorrow. I believe Peter is going to come by tonight. James says it's important, so who knows. Before I go lets have tea together again. Are you free tomorrow? Let me know.
Love Lilly Potter.
Taking a seat on the edge of the bed Harry put the letter back inside the envelope and placed on top of the nightstand. Flopping backward on the bed Harry sighed saying" Mom".
" Can I go in" spoke Hermione who was leaning up against the door frame?
Turning his head in her direction he nodded his at her. Hermione walked slowly into the room and lay down on the bed right beside Harry starring him in the face.
" What, do I have something on my face" he asked smiling back at her?
" Well, besides you're glasses" she laughed.
" Such a smart ass Miss Granger" said Harry pulling her on top of him. Looking down at him she leaned down and kissed him gently as he held on to her.
Hermione had her head on Harry's chest as she asked" Do you think we're close to the end now"?
Harry began to play with a strand of her curls and spoke" I hope so Mione. So much has happen this past year it's hard to imagine an end. Don't you worry. I don't plan on leaving you any time soon. I love you too much".
After lying like that for a while Harry got up and left to see exactly where in the world they where. Also he mentioned something about being hungry which made Hermione roll her eyes.
Hermione was busy looking at all the nice artwork Bagshot had set up in the small living room. She guessed this must have been a retreat of hers as everything was neatly set up with no clutter like the cottage they had come from. A knock at the door suddenly brought her back to reality as she went over and opens it.
Harry was busy yelling to someone when he spoke" Guess What Hermione"?
" U hm you found a sandwich shop".
"No… turns out where a small town called Sainte-Mere-Eglise located in Normandy France. And that's not all I found here" finished Harry.
Moving aside from the door she could see Bill and Fleur Weasley walking down the sidewalk in their direction.
Hermione leaned in close and whispered" Harry, are we sure we can trust them"?
" Yes, everything will become clear shortly trust me" he whispered back.
Hermione nodded and stepped back letting Fleur and Bill come in the small house. They both hugged her before she offered them a seat at a small table.
Harry was busy making some tea as Hermione while she, Bill, and Fleur started talking.
" Before you ask we where there when Dad brought Percy and Mom back. It's so sad to see how much my family has fallen. First Ron, now Mom and Percy, and poor Ginny is dead" spoke Bill wiping away a couple tears from his scarred face.
" So… you believe harry then "asked Hermione?
" Of course, Arry Potter is a good friend" added Fleur.
Hermione smiled saying" You're English is much better"
" Thank you. My William is too thanks for that" said Fleur patting Bill on the hand. A few minutes later Harry came back in with some tea and poured everyone a cup before taking a seat next Hermione.
" What brings you guys out here" asked Bill?
Harry and Hermione exchanged worried looks before Harry said" A Portkey. We're busy doing some important investigation when we got cornered in Godric's Hollow. Bathilda Bagshot told us to take it and it brought us here".
Fleur had a shocked expression on her facing before she asked" Is Lady Bagshot dead then"?
Harry and Hermione nodded there head slowly as this caused her to cry and little. Standing up Bill pulled her close and let her cry into his shoulder.
" She was a long time friend of the family" chocked out Fleur. Harry reached under the table and found Hermione's hand.
" On a happier note, Lupin and Tonks son was born yesterday. They named him Teddy after Tonks muggle dad" spoke Bill.
" That's wonderful news Bill" said Hermione smiling back at him.
About 10 minutes later then learned Bill and Fleur where hearing visiting Fleur's family for a week before heading back to England and the order.
" Well, I think it's time we take our leave" spoke Bill standing up.
They hugged briefly before heading towards the door. Right before Fleur opened it Bill spoke" I know you're doing an important mission to save the wizard world. I don't want details. I just wanted to say we're all rooting for you. Give the hell Potter".
After Bill and Fleur left they ate a large dinner without either of them talking much. Once darkness began to settle upon the small french town Hermione had a question.
" Harry, we not staying are we"?
Harry got up from the bed and walked right up to her saying" No I am sorry my Mione"
Hermione then pulled Harry close making him embraces her as she laid her head on his chest.
" You know, I like it when you call me that" she spoke looking up at him with a broad grin across her face.
" Why do you think I do it" he responded back winking at her. At this Hermione chuckled a bit before saying" God you're such man".
Harry suddenly pulled her body closer against his and said" Damn right".
" Mr. Potter, are you happy to see me or is that just you're wand in your pants" asked a playfully Hermione giving his ass a squeeze? She could see the lust in his eyes beginning to take over when suddenly he tossed his glasses aside and kissed her passionately. All she could do in response was start running her hands through his messy hair he always seem to keep. Breaking the kiss for air Harry grabbed his two shirts and quickly pulled them over his head not caring where they landed.
Looking at his toned chest she jumped forcing him to catch as she started kissing him again. She had her legs locked around his waist while he had his hands on her ass to make sure she didn't fall. Harry walked them forward until he found the bed and gently placed them both on it. Pulling away from her she gave him a confused look.
" Too much clothes" was all he spoke before he untucked her jumper and unzipped it. Once this layer was gone he then practically ripped her under shirt off before tossing it living her only dressed in her bra. Harry looked at her almost half-naked body for a couple seconds before climbing on top of her. Leaning down he began kissing and sucking on her neck and collarbone making Hermione moan in pleasure. At the same he was kissing her he was grinding himself into her making her moan even more.
Harry started going lower and kissing her chest and valley between her breast making Hermione squirm a little from the attention. Sitting up a little she quickly unclasped her bra tossing it over her head. Just before Harry began his assault again she pulled up down on his back and straddled him.
" I am in charge Mister Potter" she said in her best bossy voice making Harry give her a quick salute.
" And I say no more games" she added taking his belt off and pulling his pants down. Harry kicked off his shoes and socks while she pulled off her clothes including her panties. Harry raised an eyebrow when she quickly pulled off his boxers dropping them on the ground.
" I like this side of you Mione" said a lustfully Harry. Grinning from ear to ear she got back on top of him and position herself right over him. Hermione slowly impaled herself on him causing both of them to moan in pleasure.
Harry couldn't get over the feeling how tight she was around him. Slowly she started rocking her hips a little moving up and down. Hermione had closed her eyes once she started picking up the pace causing Harry to reach and start kneading her breasts while she rode him.
" Gods Harry" she screamed making him thrust up into matching her movements. Taking his hands off her breasts he placed them on her hips to help guide her even faster.
" Mione I am about to come" Harry shouted out and started thrusting up wildly into her. Suddenly she felt her organism hit her like a tidal wave as she clamped down on him. Harry then did one more deep thrust before coming inside her.
Spent she collapsed on top of him while they laid their attempting to catch their breath. Moving so that they where resting on the pillows Harry began to hold her from behind.
" I think we deserve some rest" whispered Harry.
" Sounds good to me" she whispered back.
" I love you Hermione".
" Love you too Harry" spoke Hermione before they drifted off into sleep.
Waking up around midnight they slowly got dressed and gathered up there things.
" We're are we heading now" she asked him?
" You know the answer Mione. We're our mission began so is where it will end" said Harry.
" Hogwarts" she whispered back.
" And before you say it, I know we can't apparate inside Hogwarts, so Hermione take us to Hogsmeade" spoke Harry. Taking a hold on his hand they apparated away from Sainte-Mere-Eglise and towards Hogsmeade.
