Chapter 10- Back to Hogwarts

Harry woke up early on the day before they went back to Hogwarts and knew everyone was asleep still. He rubbed his eyes. He had had bad dreams all night. He saw that it was still dark out and looked at his watch and saw it was 4:30am. He decided to go down and wait for breakfast.

On his way down stairs he looked in on Jen like he had the past week. She was sleeping soundly. He walked over to her bed and looked down at her. She was almost completely healed. No more bruises. A few of the bigger cuts were still scabs, but those were on her arms and legs. The past days she had wanted to be alone a lot. She wasn't laughing much, and she only talked when necessary. Harry knew that the events from Christmas were starting to really sink in. She was going to start to pull away from him, but he wouldn't let her, not again.

She started to toss on her bed and was making whimpering sounds. Harry knew she was having a bad dream.

"No, please, I don't know anything" she screamed. All of a sudden she opened her eyes. She looked at Harry, screamed and went to grab her wand. Harry quickly muttered "Lumos." And Jen could see his face. She sighed and with one hand put it to her heart and with the other one grabbed a pillow and threw it at Harry.

"What is your problem? Sneaking isn't enough for you that you have to stand there all creepy and stare at me when I'm sleeping." She frowned at him. "You're really weird you know that? You scared me to death."

Harry laughed and sat on her bed. "Sorry. I came in to see if you were okay and still sleeping." He looked at her seriously. "You were having a bad dream weren't you?"

She nodded, pushed him down so that he was lying beside her then went into his arms. "Nothing that I haven't had before." She shut her eyes and sighed. "It's still dark, why are you up?"

Harry shut his eyes. "Bad dreams."

She laughed a little. "Quite a pair aren't we."

He smiled. "Yup." He rubbed her arm. "Perfect for each other."

They laid there holding each other. Harry felt Jen fall back asleep, but didn't get up. He just wanted to lay there and hold her for a little while longer. Before he knew it he was asleep.

Harry woke up to the sound of Ron's voice. "He's in Jen's room" he screamed. Harry heard footsteps run up the stairs. Harry opened his eyes and saw that Ron was smiling in at him. Before he knew it Lupin and Mrs. Weasley were standing there. Harry looked over and saw that Jen had her eyes open.

"Don't you guys believe in letting people sleep?" Jen said sleepily.

Mrs. Weasley put her hands on her hips. "It's 9:00! I think you've slept enough. I mean you both could use the sleep, but Harry wasn't in his bed and we all panicked."

Harry saw Lupin frown. "Have you two been sleeping together all night?"

Harry rolled his eyes. "No I woke up around 4:30 and came to make sure she was okay and we talked for a bit then we fell asleep." Harry and Jen both sat up. Jen yawned.

"We're up don't worry." She said.

Lupin crossed his arms. "Do you two do this a lot?"

They both laughed. "Yeah, we sneak out and go to each others beds and do naughty, corrupted things to each other." Said Harry sarcastically.

Lupin turned to Ron and Mrs. Weasley. "Can you two excuse us?" They both nodded and left. Lupin shut the door and came to sit on the bed. "Okay, I want to talk to the both of you." He paused, looked at his hands, took a deep breath then looked back up them. "Now I don't know if you've had this talk Jen, but I know Harry hasn't."

Jen laughed a little and frowned "Are you going to give us the sex talk?" Lupin nodded and they all blushed. "Okay, well I've had this talk, can I leave please?" she said quickly and started to get up. Harry made her sit back down.

"If I have to listen to this so do you." He told her.

"Harry's right, I think it would be best if I talk to the both of you together about it." He paused again and looked up. "Okay well you're all old enough now that your…uh…probable thinking about…um…having…well you know. Okay how can I put this…okay well…um…er…okay so lets talk about the birds and the bees…"

15 minutes later Lupin stopped talking. Harry could tell Jen was trying hard not to laugh, Lupin was still trying to get words out and Harry was trying to stay seated on the bed so he wouldn't run out of the room.

"So you see it might not always be the best thing. Before you both…do…it…make sure that your both ready and take the proper precautions and you both must realize and understand what could happen." He stopped.

Jen shut her eyes and tried to wipe her smile off. "Okay, good talk." She said.

They all got up and went down stairs. Harry and Jen went into the living room and Lupin continued on to go to the kitchen. When Jen and Harry sat down, Harry and Jen were trying not to laugh. Harry bit down on his lip.

Ron smiled. "So what did he want to talk about?"

Harry and Jen looked at each other then bursted out laughing. Between gasps for breath Harry tried to them. "Lupin…tried…talk…about…sex" he looked at Jen. "Birds…Bees" and they started to laugh even harder. When they had finally calmed down they told them about their talk. Once they were done they all were silent for a moment then they all started to laugh. 5 minutes later Lupin and Mrs. Weasley came in to see what was going on. They saw Ron on the floor banging his hand on the floor, Hermione trying to help Ron up but ended up falling down on top of him which made them laugh even more. Jen and Harry were still sitting on the couch but were crying they were laughing so hard. Lupin put his hands on his hips.

"Harry and Jennifer! I was serious! It isn't a laughing matter!" He was trying to be serious but Harry could see he was starting to laugh.

"Birds…Bees…" said Jen between laughs and Lupin started to laugh to.

"Come on, I was trying to tell you something serious but didn't know how. I was just trying to complete my godfather duties." He said.

"Birds…Bees…"Harry said. They all laughed again. Even Mrs. Weasley was laughing.

The next day they said goodbye to Mrs. Weasley, Lupin, Fred and George on platform 9 ¾. They went on and found seats in the back. Harry and Jen sat on one side and Ron and Hermione on the other. They laughed together until noon when the trolley came around. They all got some food and begun to eat it. Around 1:00pm Jen fell asleep. She was using his shoulder as a pillow.

"So, she's still alive I see." They turned to the door and saw Malfoy, Crabbe and Goyle standing there. Harry put her head on the wall and stood up.

"You better get out of here Malfoy."

"Why afraid I'll finish what my father started?"

"No I'm afraid she'll finish you off then get sent to Azkaban for murdering a pathetic ferret like you."

Malfoy frowned. "Please like that weak, sluty, bitch could hurt me. That she would kill me is just funny."

Harry started towards him, "Don't call her a sluty, bitch Malfoy. And weak, please now that's something to laugh about. She was tortured for 2 days and is still not crazy. The healers said that she's one of the strongest people they had ever met. Now," Harry walked towards him and grabbed him by the shirt, "get out!" Harry shoved him and Malfoy was out the door. Before Harry could close it Malfoy looked behind Harry and spoke to the now awake Jen.

"You'll get what's coming to you. Just you wait; when they get a hold of you again it's going to be 10 times worse."

Harry hit him in the face. Malfoy was on the ground out cold. Crabbe and Goyle started towards Harry. Ron jumped forward and pointed his wand at him and yelled, "Slictora" at the same time Harry yelled "Disendium" at Goyle. Both went flying into the walls and were out cold.

Harry and Ron went into the carriage and shut the door. Harry looked at Jen and saw she was pale and shaking. Harry's face softened and he sat down and took her into his arms.

"Don't you worry I will never let them hurt you again. I promise you." Jen nodded and snuggled closer to him. Harry kissed her hair before taking her chin to tilt her head up. His lips met hers in a soft, passionate kiss. After Harry pulled as close as she would go and muttered in her hair. "I promise, I won't let you be in any more pain."

Harry and the others went into the Entrance Hall. When they entered the Great Hall they saw that everyone was staring and whispering at them. They all new that everyone was talking about Jen and her Christmas Break. Jen gave a small sound and stopped. Harry looked down at her.

"What's wrong? If it's everyone staring and whispering just ignore it."

She shook her head. "It's…um…not that…I'm just going to go to the Dorm and go to bed." Harry saw that she was looking towards the Slytherin table. Half of the table were glaring at her. Harry wondered how many of those people had hurt her.

Harry frowned. "But what about dinner?"

"I'm not that hungry."

Before Harry could say another word she ran off. Harry looked at Ron and Hermione. "Bring us up some food please?"

They nodded. Harry ran after Jen and found her sitting on the Dorm couch crying. She was pale and shaking. Harry walked over to her and sat down. She tried to brush away her tears, but they just kept on coming. When Harry tried to reach out to comfort her, she pulled away.

"God, I'm such a pathetic weakling."

"Don't say that. You're anything but."

"Please I don't think I have ever cried so much in my life. And look," She held out her shaking hand, "I can't stop shaking. Every time I think about what happened, hell even see someone whose a threat, I shake and run away crying. If that's not weak I don't know what is."

"Listen you're not weak. I would be doing the exact same thing you are if I was in your position." Harry cupped her face and made her look at him. "You are the strongest person I know. You're still a little weak, but you'll be fine in no time."

She sighed. "I hope so. I don't want to go on like this." She curled up next to him. Harry wrapped his arms around her pulling her as close as he could get her.

Harry kissed the top of her head, which made her look up at him with those beautiful eyes of hers. He caressed her cheek and leaned down to those sweet lips of hers. It was suppose to be a gentil kiss, but got turned into a very heated and passionate kiss quickly. All those months of not being able to kiss her the way he wanted had finally taken its toll on both of them. Harry's tongue asked for admitance into her mouth, which she gladly gave him. Jen layed down on the couch with Harry on top of her. She had one of her hands on his neck playing with his hair. Her other hand was was on his back, moving up and down. Harry started to kiss her jaw all the way to below her neck. He kissed her there until she was breathing very hard. His mouth then found it's way back to her mouth. Harry's hand slid up from her hip to her breast. She groaned into his mouth and arched into his hand. Harry slid his hand down her stomach under her shirt. He reclaimed her breast and made her nipples hard.
Jen pulled away from him and sat up. "What?" He asked gasping for breath. She got up and grabbed his hand pulling him. She then started up the stairs to the boys dorm. When they got there they kissed and tumbled onto the bed. Harry pulled her shirt over her head and threw it behind him. She followed suit with his shirt. He reached behind her and undid her bra. He kissed his way down to them and sucked on them. She moaned. She turned so she was on top of him. She kissed his chest and was just going to undo his pants when Ron came threw the door. "Harry we got you guys...Oh my god!"
It was as if time stood still. Ron stood there wide eyed with his mouth hanging open, frozen. Jen was still on top of Harry with her hands on his pants button. She gave a shriek and jumped off the bed and onto the ground. Harry and Ron just stared at each other both going red. Harry was the first recover.
He sat up and chucked a pillow at Ron and yelled "Get the hell outta here Ron!" Ron seemed to snap out of it and quickly covered his eyes. "Oh god you guys I am so sorry...I...um...I didn't know..."
"RON JUST GET OUT!"
"What...oh ya...god sorry!" Ron quickly turned and ran out of the room.
Harry fell back onto the bed and covered his face with his arm. He sat like that for a minute then pushed himself up and lend over the bed. "Jen, are you okay?"
"Uh huh...um...can you please get my clothes?"
"What...oh yeah." Harry leaped off the bed and grabbed their discarted clothing. He handed a very red Jen her bra and shirt. He pulled his own shirt on. When they were fully clothed they both sat on the bed. They looked at each other for a minute.
Jen gave a shaky laugh. "Guess we know where not to do this any more."
Harry smiled and nodded. Then there was another silence.
"Well...um...I'm going to go to bed. Night Harry."
"Night Jen."
"Harry, lets not get weird okay? I mean ya it will be with Ron but umm not with us."
He smiled and pulled her close. "Definately not weird."
She smiled and winked at him. "We'll finish up when we have a more umm...private place." Harry nodded.
"Well night."
"Night." They kissed (very careful not to let it get out of control) then hugged.
When she was gone Harry groaned and fell back onto the bed. Stupid Ron.
