Chapter seven

Harry thought it wouldn't look good if he picked up Ginny, her parents, Ron and Hermione would know exactly what she was going to do. So Ginny being close to Fred and George, she lied and lied convincingly, saying she was visiting Luna Lovegood.

Harry got to the house early to set up all the food and drinks, but so did a lot of others. Charlie arrived and he was talking to a few that he never got a chance to talk to last time, then Ginny arrived, both Weasley's ended up surprised. Charlie that his sister was going to do this and his natural instinct was to stop her, Ginny was surprised that Charlie seemed very friendly with everyone. She tried to talk to Harry, but he seemed engrossed with others, so she sat alone feeling very nervous.

Once everyone arrived they started with their trivia game, again Harry seemed to lose more than he got right.

'I think you lose on purpose Harry, do you like being the first naked?' Anthony asked.

'No, but most of these questions are on the magical world, I grew up in a muggle home then Hogwarts, well, there I was just too busy to learn anything apart from normal lessons. Now come on, get on with the questions so we can get on with the fucking, I'm raging here.'

'So we see,' Sally chuckled.

So the questions continued for another half an hour before Harry pulled Charlie up the stairs and into one of the room. He had seen Ginny giving him looks, but she had to understand how these parties worked. All couples never touched each other only others and Harry thought this might show her how they weren't a couple.

When Harry and Charlie had showered, they headed back downstairs to find more partners. The moment Harry stepped into one of the living rooms Ginny pulled on his hand.

'So who did you hook up with?'

'No one, so can we because that might make me relax?'

'No, we're dating, couples that date don't have sex with each other. Go find someone, there's so many here that will give you a good time.'

'Hey Harry, my turn,' Sherry called.

'Well, let's get it on Sherry,' Harry went to move away from Ginny but she grabbed his arm, 'Go find someone Ginny.'

'No, I can't, you're my boyfriend.'

'I'm not your boyfriend, how many times do I have to say that. But if you're not going to join in with someone else it might be best if you leave,' Harry yanked his arm out of Ginny, took Sherry's hand and pulled her into one of the living room.

'She wants the whole serious relationship doesn't she?' Sherry said as she pushed Harry onto the bed then climbed over him.

'Yes, I don't, but that's serious talk Sherry.'

'True, so how about I use my mouth for something that's fun.'

'Now you're talking, so get on with it,' Harry smirked then watched as Sherry moved down his body. Harry caught a glimpse from the door, saw Ginny watching them, Harry sighed, but he ignored her. He had explained they weren't a couple, he had explained that if she wanted to join their parties how it worked. It seemed Ginny just couldn't get past the fact that she wanted Harry all to herself, which will never happen. So while he knew she was watching he made a show of how much he enjoyed being with Sherry.

After Harry and Sherry finished, they showered again before joining in with others, again Ginny just kept watching and she was the only one still dressed. Harry had spoken with a few of his friends, they had decided to let her go and see if she would eventually join in or leave. At one time Ginny had dragged Charlie to a corner where she ended up shouting at her brother for having sex with Harry, Charlie ended up walking away.

Draco had dragged Harry upstairs and into one of the bedrooms, 'You seem distracted Potter.'

'Oh, it's Ginny, she just doesn't get it.'

'She loves you, wants what most people call a normal relationship. The looks she keeps giving everyone is not going down well. I think you should seal the house from her before the next party.'

Harry sighed, 'Why can't she understand?'

'It's the way she was brought up. She meets someone, they fall in love and get married.'

'But there's a few here that are married that like to get it on with others. I told her I don't want marriage, nothing serious that I'm not even her boyfriend. I know most people here are couples but they don't let that stop them enjoying their life. I think there are only four or five of us that aren't in serious relationships.'

'I almost died, I'm not just talking about that day in the bathroom. Having him at my home there were a few times I thought it was over. You are I are similar in a way Harry, our lives were entangled with him whether we wanted it or not.'

Harry sighed again, 'I lost count at the amount of times I almost died. That's what she can't understand and she should, she almost died. There is still danger out there, so dying is still something that can happen, doesn't she get that?'

'She does, so her idea of living life to the fullest is having you and having you belong to her, only her. I think you either get her to understand or you tell her it's over.'

'Yeah, I might have to. I really thought she would get the message after a while. It's been almost a year since his death and I've never given her any reason to think I would change my mind. I know I've never been like everyone else, but I like the way I am now.'

Draco pushed Harry onto his back then sat astride him, 'I like you the way you are. So enjoy tonight then tomorrow do something about her.'

Harry stared up at the blond but he thought he saw more in Draco's eyes than just someone wanting to have some fun. Harry wasn't sure if what he saw was right or not but he was going to watch Draco more closely over the next few weeks. If Harry was honest with himself, he enjoyed being with Draco, more than anyone else. So even though he still wanted nothing serious, at least for a while, maybe when he did it would be the blond sitting on him that he would end up with. He had a lot of thinking to do before he could work that out, but the first thing he needed to do was break it off completely with Ginny. He knew it would mean no more visits to the Burrow, but Harry didn't mind that because all the Weasley's and Hermione were starting to annoy him with their talk of committing to a relationship with Ginny. They never stopped talking about it or bringing it up when he least expected it. Did they really believe he would marry someone he didn't love, to Harry that's what they wanted, for him to marry Ginny because she loved him and his feelings didn't matter to anyone. But they mattered to Harry, he would commit when he was ready and it wouldn't be Ginny, he knew that, he told her that, but she just can't accept it. Now though, it was over, he just had to tell her.
