Sorry I didn't say this before but the year is already at Christmas time.
It;s a jump but some things need to get done.
Enjoy:)
"Er... A lot of people know about it, like Dean he told me about it too." Ron explained quickly.
"Oh look class is starting." Casey said changing the subject. Ron's story did make sense to Harry, but for some reason he could not believe him. Whether it was because Ron sounded as though he made that up on the spot, or was it the nervous look on his face.
Harry could not pay attention in class that day. His mind kept wandering between Ron and Amare. He wished his daughter could be in class with him. Then maybe he wouldn't worry so much. He worried that she wasn't being fed, that someone was going to take her. Or she might get lost if Madam Pomfey turned her back for a second. Harry knew the school's nurse was trustful, she had helped him so many times. But for some reason he would not trust her with his baby daughter. Harry turned to Ron.
"Do you still have those snack boxes Fred and George gave you?" Harry asked him.
"Yeah, why?"
"No time to explain, just give me one." Harry said hurriedly. Ron reached into his robe pocket and pulled out a green and red piece. Harry took it and was about to eat the green part when:
"What are you doing? Trying to get out of class? You don't learn much as it is, you have to stay." Hermione whispered to him in a very firm voice.
"I need to see Amare, I just don't feel right without her." Harry told her. It surprised him that she smiled at him.
"You're supposed to eat the red part first." She told him, he smiled.
"Thanks" He said before popping the red part in his mouth. It gave Harry a strange feeling, like there was a bubble in his head. Then he had a very painful headache and he could tell Ron gave him the fever one.
"Professor I'm not feeling well." Harry said to Professor Slughorn.
"Well thats not good, we must all be healthy, I believe. Yes, yes go to the hospital wing." Slughorn told him . Before leaving Harry winked at a very stunned looking Casey.
He almost ran to the Hospital Wing, he could not wait to see his baby. But it was going to be a longer wait then he thought. He ran into Draco Malfoy on the way.
"Potter." He said curtly to him.
"Malfoy" Harry replied in the same voice.
"Heard about the girl you have here, always trying to be nice I see. But there are some times you need to be mean. You shouldn't have let her back in here."
"Who are you to tell me what I should be doing?" Harry asked harshly to him. Malfoy suddenly turned from mean, to well.. concerned.
"You saved my life last year, and all I'm trying to do is help. Just to make things even. I can't say much, but I don't trust her. I know things you don't, I say get rid of the slut before it's too late." That is what Malfoy said before he quickly walked off. Harry kept walking but he was completely stunned. What was he talking about? He was not the first to say that they don't trust Casey. And what he said had to be the truth, because he was never nice to Harry, and now he was. But all thoughts left Harry's mind once he got to the Hospital Wing.
"What are you doing here dear? You should be in class." Madam Pomfey said to him once he got into the wing. She was caring for someone in a bed, far away from Amare. This was good and bad in some ways.
"I have permission to see Amare" Harry lied. Madam Pomfey nodded and pointed to the little carriage on the other side of the room. Harry walked over and stood over her crib. He put his hand in for her to play with, which she did. She grabbed hold of it and began twisted her little fingers through his, as though trying to examine them.
"You're so luck Amare. You're to small to care about anything in the world. You don't have to do anything, everyone cares for you, don't get me wrong I love to do it though. I hope you never grow up, I hope you never have to have your heart broken. I hope you never feel confusion, and that you never feel pain or sadness. I hope you have a childhood, a nice one I never had, and I will make sure of that. I hope nothing ever goes wrong in your life. Promise me you'll be a baby forever." Harry said to her. She made a soft noise, as though answering Harry, he laughed. He felt better now that he saw her. They were having a great conversation. Well Harry was talking and she was talking in baby words, but even though he could not understand her, he knew she could understand him, and he liked it that way.
OoOoOoOoOooOoOooOoOo
The holidays came almost to fast. The only people left were Harry and Hermione. Ron and Ginny went to Romania with their parents, they did not have enough money for Harry and Hermione, so they did not go. Hermione did not want to go home, she was always somewhere, as though looking for something. And Casey, even though Harry protested and was now not talking to her, took Amare and went to stay with her mother for the holidays.
Harry was in the common room twiddling with his wand, and Hermione had her face in a book. He was telling her about what Malfoy had said to him. Once he finish she put the book down.
"That's makes sense." She said.
"How?" Harry asked, he really did not understand. She picked up her book and stood up.
"Take me to the place Miranda showed you." she basically ordered him. He stood as well and walked her to the underground flat. All the while he was asking questions, but she did not answer one until they were inside the the little bedroom.
"Show me where the W&N is," She ordered, he face buried in the book. He did. She examined it closely, then turned away, and walked to the other side of the room.
"Harry come here." she told him. He walked over to where she was standing and on the wall was another W&N but it was not in a heart. She held up the book next to it. Inside the book was the same picture in the same handwriting, with out a heart.
"This is the one Will and Nancy wrote, see the book says so. I borrowed it from Miranda, she got the wrong engraving on the wall. That one over there, it was not Will and Nancy. Come one." At that she dragged Harry out of the room, and towards the Great Hall, this time Harry did not ask anything, he was trying to stomach this all. He figured out what was happening, they ran into Dean.
"Hey Harry, Hermione. What's going on." He asked looking at them, Hermione looked flustered, and Harry, confused.
"No real time to talk Dean. Do you know where a secret flat is.? A one under the kitchens?" She asked quickly.
"No, wait, we have a secret flat?" He asked, but Hermione looked very sad and dragged Harry into the nearest empty classroom.
"Stay here." she said before leaving and closing the door.
Harry could not get this, what was happening. So far the writing Miranda had showed him was the wrong one, and Dean did not know where the flat was. What was Hermione doing? He found out soon. She wand Malfoy where now walking into the classroom.
"This is how you'll repay him, with the truth." She said to Draco, who nodded. Hermione turned to Harry."I know everything now Harry. Ron was really upset when you slept with Casey that night right? He was with her Harry, I know it's hard to believe, but he said Dean told him where it was, but Dean didn't even know we had an underground flat. And Casey changed the subject really quickly. And Ron said he liked his last name better, and Casey's last name is Norcom. W&N, Weasley and Norcom, get it? They where going behind your back into that room to be together, and sleep together. And Malfoy will tell you it's the truth, tell him." She said.
"She's right Harry, I watched them all the time on my way back to my common room. They were always laughing and saying to each other not to tell Harry. That's why she's not trustworthy Harry. I'm sorry." Malfoy said, he shook Harry's lifeless hand and walked out, Hermione continued.
"Harry, that is why she did not come tell you earlier. She did not know who the father was, it was either you or Ron. And she was scared of you finding out about her and Ron, so she didn't tell you until she was sure it was yours and Amare is your baby, that's why she waited. If you don't believe me ask her, make her tell the truth." Hermione finished.
Harry could not stomach this, his best friend, no. The love of his life, never. But it all made so much sense, but he couldn't believe it. Casey and Ron? No, it could never be, but it was. The pain inside was crushing him, he felt empty, and just wanted to die. He felt like... like crying, but he could not, all his tears where dried up by shock. He wanted to run, run far away and never come back. Or he wanted to wake up, and have this all be a bad dream. And him and Casey will be back together, and she would have never slept with Ron. And she would have never been scared that Amare was not his child. Harry wanted to die, or run, but instead he found himself in Hermione's arms, sobbing.
