Here's the next chapter. I hope you enjoy it and leave a review for me. If not its cool. Okay, seriously on with it.
Oh, before I forget I want to thank Penny for her review. That is so nice. Sometimes I wonder if people are reading some of my stories. Thank you again.
On with the story.
Harry is standing next to the lake he had learned to enjoy so much. He is there standing next to his beautiful wife watching his children play in peace. Even thought he wanted to run and play with his children he has a stronger wish to stay with his loving wife.
'I can't believe this is real.' she says.
'I know what you mean.' he turns to face his beautiful pregnant wife and reach out to rub her belly. 'I never knew I can be so happy.'
She turns to look at him with a big smile.
That is when Harry sits up quickly with a start. It is all a dream. He was married with two children and a third on it's a way.
Only problem is he never got to see the face of his wife. Never got to find out who was the woman.
When he looks to his side he sees the still sleeping woman on her cot. Her even messier hair was all over her face. The blanket was wrap around her legs. He smile and he begins to feel that same happiness he had in his dream. Before he can move her eyes slowly open up.
"What?" she says sitting up and placing her feet on the ground. "I know I look like crap in the morning."
He shakes his head.
"You look beautiful." he says making her cheeks go red.
"You don't look that bad either." she says after a while. "Do you want to change first or should I?"
"I have an idea." he says jumping up.
He puts a rope from one side of the tent to the other side about chin level and places a thick blanket on it separating the room in two with the blanket wall.
"What is this for?" she ask with laughter in her voice.
"That way we can change at the same time. You wont worry about me looking at you while you change and I wont worry about peeping eyes." he says pointing at her.
"Like that can ever happen." she says rolling her eyes.
"You never know. I have no idea what runs around your dirty little mind." he says patting the top of her head. "I just need to make sure you don't look at me." he says with a wide smile.
"Your so full of it." she says softly pushing his arm playfully. "What do you think that every women is worshipping the floor you walk on?"
"No, I don't think that I am that good but…" he trails making a point.
"Princesses do." she bits her lower lip before talking again. "How did you manage to still be unhitch?"
Before he can answer the flap to the tent opens and a blonde head pops in.
"Harry?" it says.
"Draco, what are you doing here?" Hermione says running to him and hugging him.
"I see you miss me, princess." he says kissing her hand.
"Oh be quiet, you." he walks over to his cousin. "Hello Harry."
"Hey, Draco. We haven't been expecting you here yet." Harry says.
"Alright before this conversation continues I need to change." Hermione says. "Out, Draco."
"How about, Harry?" he ask pouting.
"I have solve that problem with the blanket." Harry answers.
"Like that will keep you from peeking." Draco says with a snort.
"Well if he dares he will regret it." she says pulling out one of her twin Sais.
"Nice weapon. Can I look at it closer?" Draco ask looking at its delicate pattern on the middle blade.
"Yeah, you can take this one I have another." she says handing it to Draco before he walks out. "I am not afraid of using it, Potter, so no looking over this way."
He moves the blanket for more coverage and turns around to change.
Hermione after putting on skin tight brown leather pants begins to look over her shoulder trying to see what Harry is doing. She notices he is not wearing a shirt and turns around red in the face.
"What are you doing?" Harry ask without looking at her.
"Nothing." she says blushing even more.
She can hear a faint um-hmm from him which makes her snort out.
"What?" he ask feeling very insecure as he turns to face her.
She quickly pulls down her black leather halter top.
"Hello, still changing here." she says sitting quickly in her cot.
"You're finish." he says pulling on a loose white shirt.
"Now I am." he pulls back the blanket before sitting on his cot to put on his boots.
"Do you still feel uneasy around me?"
"Yes. You are way taller than me so its easier for you to peek over." she answers after finishing tying her own boots.
He finishes with his boots and looks right at her.
"So it is more the fact that you just don't trust me."
Her mouth drops at his statement.
"I am a princess, Harry. A woman sharing a room or tent with any man is not allowed. We all grow up thinking that."
He snorts at her response.
"Says the girl that took on the name of her mother to so she can spend time with a man at night. I wonder if its allowed for a princess to do that. Or how about one that decides to not listen to those that know better and join a war where she might be killed."
"Alright I get it." she says standing annoyed. "We should go outside now. Draco, has been waiting long enough."
She puts the sheath of her sword to her waist and the other twin sai to her boot.
"You sleep with them in the room?" he ask opening the flap to there tent.
"Of course, how about if there is an emergency. I at least now where to find my weapons." she says following him out.
"Where's your bow and arrows?" he ask as they walk towards Draco.
"Guess what you guys?" Draco ask as they join him.
"What?" they both say together.
"I am going to join you guys on the tent." he says.
"What?" Hermione squeaks out.
"I am going to sleep with you guys." he says with a bigger smile.
"Wow, another babysitter." she says looking away.
"They didn't put me to look after you. I honestly think that you can look after yourself. Unlike my cousin here. Or his father and yours. For that matter even your sister." he says counting out the people.
"I get it." she says holding up her hand to stop him. "No one thinks I'll be able to survive here on my own."
"Except for me." he says wrapping his arm around her shoulders.
"Thank you." she says handing him her other blade. "Here, you can look at them closer. Just don't hurt them or yourself, for that matter."
She takes a quick glance at Harry and walks away.
"Don't look at me like that, cousin. Its not my fault that I get better along with her than you. I am just more lovable." he says playing with the blades. "These are so awesome."
Harry rolls his eyes at him.
"We are getting along well, now, for your information. I think I am growing on her now."
"You can also tell she still likes you." Harry glares at him again. "Come on, you think I haven't figure everything out. You are hopping to win her heart and marry her. That is why you broke up with her sister. Have you even told her that you are no longer engage?"
"No." he says slumping in the shoulders.
"Let's go have some breakfast before she finishes." Draco says walking towards the eating area.
Harry groans before walking after his cousin.
"Cough them up." Hermione says when she finishes her breakfast.
"What?" Draco says almost choking on his breakfast.
"I am going to go practice." she holds out her hand. "So hand them over."
"Hand over what?" he ask looking at Harry.
"Are you this slow in the morning?" she ask. "My twin sais, what else?"
"Oh." he says sheepishly.
"Thank you." she says when he hands them to her. "I hope to never find out what you were thinking about."
She gives him a quick look before running off.
When she is out of sight Sirius and Lupin join them laughing.
"I will never forget the look in both of your faces." Sirius says laughing even harder. "And you Harry you look so lost when she is out of your sight."
"Looks a lot like your dad with, well…" Lupin says stopping.
"You mean that chick?" Draco says.
"The same lost look." Sirius whisper to him.
"Man you have it bad." Draco says.
Harry gets up mad.
"I don't need this. I am going to go take a ride and just don't…follow me." then he runs looking for his horse.
------
Harry stops near some trees that is surrounding a field of gold grass. He is about to ride around it when he hears voices and the sound of laughter. He gets of his white horse and walks to look at the people there.
He stops when he sees Hermione fighting against the four Ravenclaws. She was giving them one great fight. No weapons just hand to hand combat.
"She is something." someone says next to her.
Harry looks over to see his father there looking at the girls.
"She is just like her mother. I think I fear that she can die young as her mother did. They have the same spirit."
"I fear loosing her before I can tell her how I feel." Harry says back.
"So she is the one?" his father ask.
"Whether you like it or not dad. She is the one." Harry nods.
"Then fight for her, son. Don't do something you'll regret. Be one hundred percent sure to follow your heart." he says squeezing his arm before walking away.
"Are you saying that by experience?" Harry ask not turning to face his father.
"I am telling you because I follow my heart and I don't regret it." king James continuing to walk away.
