Chapter 9

Harry stood before the 7th years trying to focus, but last night's happenings were too fresh in his mind. Harry shook his head, realizing that Hermione was talking to him

"-like active death help?" Hermione looked at him with a worried stare.

"Yes, that is correct," Harry said, pretending that he had heard everything she had said, hoping that the last sentence was what her question was about.

"There was this a married woman who got sick, and after a having seen several doctors they found out that magic couldn't heal her. She got worse and worse, and in the end, the husband couldn't bear to see his wife in so much pain, and he decided to end her life, with her approval," Harry was quite aware of the different views on the matter of helping people die, but he had actually thought the story was quite convincing.

"But they could have found a cure!" he heard Parvati say.

"Look, I am not saying that killing people is right; each individual case must be judged individually. But the point of everything I have been telling you is that I want you to be able to look upon dark magic with new eyes and not judge the spell from what evil it has caused.

"For next class, I want you to read up on dueling. You're dismissed," Harry said, taking a deep breath. That was the last class of the day and he knew that Ginny would most likely find him soon.

"Harry, are you okay? It seemed like you weren't really here at times," Hermione asked, walking up to him at the desk.

"I'm fine," Harry said, shifting some papers on his desk.

"Yeah, when you say you're fine, usually it means that you're not fine," Ron said, mimicking Hermione's worried look.

"Look, maybe I'm not fine, but there is really nothing you can do about it. Now, I have things to do." Harry picked up his things and walked towards the door. And then suddenly Ginny appeared in the doorway.

"I don't want to talk, Ginny," Harry said, brushing past her.

"Harry, you might not want to, but I do," she said, trying to stop him in his place. He was just glad that he could not hear Hermione and Ron following them.

"Harry!" Ginny said, taking a hold of his arm.

"Ginny, I am begging you to just let it go for now. If you want to talk then we can talk later, not now!" Harry said, ripping his hand from her grip. Ginny did not follow him.

""""

Harry got to his quarters and tried to calm down. He was mad at himself, yesterday had been great up until the moment he had to go and ruin it.

From last night:

Harry was hungrily kissing Ginny, wanting to taste every last part of her. He slowly moved his mouth up her cheeks and down to her neck. He slowly pulled away and looked at her.

Ginny's eyes were closed and her mouth slightly open. "Merlin Harry, don't stop," she said in-between gasps. She opened her eyes and Harry could see fire in them. Harry leaned down and continued his kissing, and went further down. Ginny ripped her shirt off before Harry had a chance to unbutton it, and he froze.

End scene from last night.

The intense fire that had been consuming him had vanished and it all stopped. He had not been able to go on, and he hated himself for it. He had wanted to, but, for some reason, the one time he actually wanted an erection, it didn't happen. Harry was mad at himself, at his body for betraying him like that. It seemed that the only time his anatomy wanted to work was at inappropriate times, like when taking a shower after Quidditch training with everyone around him, or in class, or at any other time he didn't want an erection. But last night, no. His body had to betray him.

Harry's train of thought was interrupted by a knocking on the door. Harry could almost feel Ginny on the other side of the door. So instead of opening it, Harry fled through the floo.

"Moony's cottage."

Harry stepped out of the floo and saw Remus sitting on the sofa reading a book.

"Can I come in?" Harry asked.

Remus looked up and seemed both startled and worried.

"Of course, Harry, please." Remus held out his hand towards the seat beside him.

Harry sat down, but didn't say anything. He sort of wanted to talk about what had happened, but then what had happened was mortifying, and he really didn't want to talk about it.

Harry didn't know how long he sat there with his thoughts but suddenly Remus spoke.

"Harry, is there a reason why you're here?" Remus looked at him with a half a smile.

"Yes. No." Harry frowned, "I don't know."

Remus got up and walked over to the dinner table and picked up a letter.

"Perhaps it has something to do with this?" Remus asked, giving him the empty envelope.

Harry immediately recognized Ginny's handwriting and realized that she must have foreseen him fleeing to Remus and explained the situation. Harry could feel his cheeks heating up from the knowledge that Remus knew what had happened. But on the other hand it prevented him from having to explain everything to Remus.

"Harry, listen to me. First of all, I want to tell you that what happened happens to everyone," Remus said, sitting down beside him again.

"Isn't that something you just say?" Harry asked, looking down at his hands in his lap. He really didn't want to talk about this. It was humiliating.

"Harry, I know that you probably don't want to have this conversation, but please Harry, look at me," Remus said, and Harry lifted his eyes and met Remus' brown ones.

"And no, it isn't something you just say. It actually happened to Sirius too, but in his case, Amanda Colm told the whole school about the incident," Remus half laughed. "Sirius didn't take it too well, and he made sure that the revenge was sweet. But the point is, it does happen to the best of us, even a ladies' man like Sirius," Remus said.

Harry wasn't too sure if the story really helped, well at least not with his immediate feelings.

"And second, Harry, I want you to go back to Hogwarts and talk to Ginny," Remus put a hand on his shoulders.

Honestly, Harry didn't want to leave. He wanted to stay in this cottage forever and forget about everything bad. But he was an adult wasn't he? And like an adult he needed to have an adult conversation with Ginny, even if it would be one of the most mortifying conversations ever.

"You're probably right, I just..." Harry stopped there, looking into the fire place.

"If you feel like it, you can come back at any other time." Remus gave him a hug and sent him on his way.

Back in his quarters, Ginny was waiting on the sofa.

"And?" she asked with her hands crossed.

"I really don't want to talk about it Ginny," Harry said, sitting down on the sofa.

"Look, Harry, you don't have to talk, I will do the talking," Ginny said, shifting her position to face him.

"First, I want to tell you that it's okay, and that what happened was probably a good thing." At that Harry wanted to protest but Ginny help up a hand.

"Harry, I know that you decided yesterday that you were done waiting, and that is why it sort of pains me to tell you this. Yesterday I sort of realized that I don't want to rush into things. I want it to be exactly right, and so therefore I ask you now to wait for the moment when we both know that it is right," Ginny said, taking a breath.

Harry smiled. "Now you're telling me this," Harry half laughed. Ginny leaned in and placed a soft kiss on his lips.

"Yes, I am," she said, smiling.

"""""

After Ginny left, Harry decided to walk up to the hospital wing to see Rose. He had been sitting by her bed at several occasion, waiting for her to talk to him. Up until now he had been reading a book, and she had been silent, but that was not what happened today.

"Why do you sit here?" she asked with a shaking voice. Harry looked at her and saw that she was sitting in a defense position with her knees drawn up to her chest and her hands holding them making sure that she was protected.

"I am waiting for you to talk to me, to tell me what happened to you," Harry said.

"What if I won't tell you?" she asked, biting her lip.

"Then I will continue to sit here until you do," Harry said, giving her a small smile. "I want to help you, and I hope that someday you will let me." Harry went back to reading.

"Well, that is not today," she said, looking away. Harry smiled inside. She might not have realized it, but she had taken a big step today, gathering the courage to actually say something to him. Harry just hoped that she would continue to progress like this.

"""""

That night Harry was twisting and turning in bed. He could see swirling black smoke, or something that liked like smoke. It was going around and around and around.

Harry woke up breathing had. That had not been a vision but not a normal dream either. Trying to steady his breath, he realized that the dream had been induced by the concentration of magic in the air. Someone had opened a portal again, this time inside of Hogwarts.

Harry got to his feet and left hid quarters without more clothes on than the sweatpants he usually slept in.

Harry hurried through the corridors trying to get to the portal before it closed. He was in the dungeons when the sizzling magic in the air died. The portal was closed and the trail was lost. Harry closed his eyes. It seemed like the mystery would not be solved today.

"What in Merlin's name are you doing, Potter?" Harry turned his head and saw Snape walking towards him.

"Nothing," Harry said quietly.

Snape only raised an eye and looking him up and down.

"Really?" the man asked intently.

Harry just shook his head and started walking back to his quarters. Snape didn't say anything, and when they arrived at his quarters the man continued to walk.

Harry turned around and was about to open the door when he heard a voice.

"Harry?" Harry turned around and found Ginny standing there looking at him.

"Ginny, what are you doing here?" Harry asked.

"I was heading down to breakfast when I saw you and Professor Snape," she said looking him up and down. Harry followed her eyes, and of course she was wondering what he was doing walking the hallways in just his sweatpants.

"It was nothing really." Harry shook his head, deciding that he didn't want to worry her.

She walked up to him and Harry could see her eyes roaming over his chest.

"You know, you should really start to teach like this," she said, leaning closer.

"Yeah?" Harry said, swallowing. "Don't you have class?" Harry asked, deciding that if she wanted to go slow they should stop.

"Unfortunately I do," she said, leaning in and placing a completely innocent and soft kiss on his lips. But it seemed like this was one of those situations where his body didn't want to listen.

Harry could feel Ginny smile against his lips, and she looked down.

"Just so you know, if you don't go to class I'm going to steal you away," Harry said, breathing shallowly.

"Maybe I'll let you." That was all she had to say, and Harry dragged her into his quarters. They were kissing fervently and Harry pushed her up against the wall. Suddenly, she took charge, and they ended up on the sofa with her on top this time. She started to trail kisses down his naked chest, and started sucking on his nipples.

"Oh!" Harry moaned; he had lost the function to speak. She continued to move downwards but stopped when she came to his pants. Harry wanted to push her further down but couldn't bring himself to move. Instead of going further down, she laid down on him and started to kiss him and move her hips. Harry tried to keep up with the kisses, but he could barely form a coherent thought. And that is when the door suddenly burst open, and Harry could see both Dumbledore and Snape standing there. He acted quickly and got away from under Ginny. He could see her turn dark red sitting there, not meeting the teachers' eyes.

"This is why you shouldn't have hired a teenager, Albus," Snape said.

Dumbledore only smiled. "Miss Weasley, I believe that you have a class you're late for." Harry could see Dumbledore's eyes were twinkling like mad, unlike Snape's who looked annoyed.

"Harry, something has happened to Rose," Dumbledore said. Harry got up and walked into his bedroom. There he leaned against the door and closed his eyes. This was so not a situation he ever wanted to be in.

He looked down. "Come on, the action is over, and I do not need you right now," Harry sighed and formed the most ghastly pictures he could and felt relieved when his erection died down. Harry waved his hand and was clothed. He picked up his wand and walked out into the living room.

"Show the way," Harry said.

"""""

Up in the hospital wing, he could see a grey blob-like thing on the wall. Getting closer he could see that it was a jelly-like substance covering Rose in a perfect half sphere.

Harry closed his eyes. He should have known.

He could hear the other teachers filling the room.

"Damn it!" Harry said.
