By WeasleyLover2
Ok, you all know I don't own the characters, the places, the things, or the terms, but I do own the plot and the things I make the characters do. This is a new twist. Tuns of fluff, 'Between who?' You ask. Well, this is a Harry/Lavender story. Hope you enjoy!!!
"Harry! Wake up!" Harry was shaken awake by Ron. "We're going to be late for breakfast," he said as he threw Harry some pants and a shirt. "And, Lavender's waiting for you," he added, smiling.
Harry quickly got dressed and went downstairs. There, Hermione and Lavender were in a deep conversation. Lavender had a few tears, 'They're probably talking about last night,' he thought as he went up to them. The girls looked up when he approached. "Are you ready?" he asked Lavender.
She sighed and shook her head yes. "I'm gonna' have to be, no matter if I want to be or not."
"Shall we go?" Ron asked as he took Hermione's arm. They headed out the portrait hole.
The great hall was alive and loud as usual. Lavender's "friends" were sitting at their usual spot at the Gryffindor table, near the door. The foursome walked in. The snobs at the table just glared at them evilly, like they did something wrong. Lavender took a deep breath and walked up to them. The other three just sat down farther down the table and watched.
"It's over," she told Seamus harshly.
"It's been over for a long time sugar," he replied evenly.
Lavender looked from him to Pavarti and back again in disbelief. Then she looked at the rest of them. They looked solemn, they obviously knew about this scandal, but they weren't so mean; they felt sorry for her, she could see it in their eyes. But Seamus and Pavarti just looked at her with evil eyes and identical un-nerving smiles. Lavender just walked away with as much dignity as she could muster.
She sat down next to Harry.
"How'd it go?" Hermione asked gently. Lavender just shook her head.
"I can't take this right now," she said quietly and made to get up.
"Nope, your not leaving," Harry told her as he grabbed her arm and pulled her back down. "You're going to eat something and stay here until class starts. If you leave, they'll think even less of you; and what kind of action would that be? Just saying you're too chicken to stay and handle the situation." Out of anyone else's mouth this would be pretty harsh, but Harry had a point, and he was telling it gently like it was.
Lavender looked at him. "Alright, I'll stay, but I don't think I could stomach anything right now."
"Oh, come on. You'll be hungry later," Ron told her matter-of-factly. He scooped some oatmeal onto her plate. Then he added some bacon and some scrambled eggs. "Now, eat." He demanded, starting to eat again himself.
Lavender just smiled at him. "Thanks Ron, but I'm not hungry."
"Yes, you are," Hermione put in. Lavender knew where this was going. They were going to talk her into eating; 'which isn't going to happen,' she thought.
"No, I'm not. I'm fine. Really."
"No you're not. You just broke-up with your boyfriend; you need some food so you have energy to go on with your day." Harry told her.
Lavender just shook her head and pushed the plate away. "No! Now leave me alone!" she said smiling. 'I'm not going to give in,' she told herself. But that seemed very difficult at the moment.
"Do I need to feed you?" Harry asked her chuckling. He scooped some oatmeal onto a spoon. "Come on Lav, open up."
At this all four of them started cracking up. While Lavender was laughing Harry shoved the spoon into her mouth. This made Ron and Hermione laugh even harder. She was caught off guard at first and started to choke, but she took the spoon out of her mouth and swallowed the food.
"What are you trying to do, choke me?" she asked smiling all the same.
"No, but I got you to eat." Harry replied grinning. Lavender rolled her eyes she was about to say something when Pavarti strolled over.
"Lavender, I just want you to know exactly how long we've been together," Pavarti told her smugly. Lavender just stared at her; she took this as a sign to go on. "Remember in fourth year when you went to the Yule Ball with him? And I went with Harry?" at this she winked at Harry. He just scowled in return. "Well, about a month after that you two got into some sort of truffle and I comforted him. And you can ask him how well I did my job too." She added, smiling evilly.
Lavender was shocked. "This whole time he's been cheating on me?" she asked in a whisper.
"Oh, no silly. I'm sure you can recall about a dozen times when he was especially nice to you, and paid you tons of attention…well, that would be when *we* had arguments and he just wanted me to get jealous." Pavarti smiled satisfied.
"You bitch," Lavender said in a harsh whisper. "How could you do that to me? I thought you were my friend. Someone I could trust. Then you went and got obsessed with all the things that don't matter in life *and* you stole my boyfriend. No, you didn't just steal him, you tempted him and you kept him for yourself *while* he was going out with me. You stupid ass. It's not only over with Seamus and me; we're through too! You understand me? I don't want anything from you, I don't want your friendship, your gossip, your clothes, or that fucked up wake-up call you give me every morning. It's over Pavarti; and I have nothing left to say to you. Good-bye."
"Bu-"
"You heard her, leave." Harry told Pavarti with venom.
Pavarti just made a face and slumped away.
"Damn girl. Never knew you had it in you," Ron complimented her in awe.
She smiled weakly. "Uh, thanks Ron."
"*I'm* going to pretend I didn't hear all that foul language," Hermione said grinning. "Very nicely done Lav."
Lavender just sighed exasperated and pulled her plate toward her. Harry looked surprised. "I'm going to need the energy; after all, I have a few more people I need to talk to today…" she grinned and started to eat.
Harry just rolled his eyes at her. "You don't want me to feed you anymore?" he asked her grinning mischievously.
Lavender grinned. "No, I think I've got it under control."
"Oh, look who's coming now," Ron groaned.
"I don't even want to know," Lavender said as she started on a piece of bacon.
"I heard that you insulted my girlfriend," a familiar voice said next to Lavender.
"Go away Seamus," Lavender said tensely.
"No, I want an apology."
Lavender looked at him like he'd gone mental. "Oh god, here it comes," Ron whispered to Hermione. She nodded in agreement.
"Apology? *You* want an apology? Who the hell do you think you are? An apology, ha! As if I'll ever apologize to you, let alone talk to you, ever again! I didn't insult her, I told her the facts, straight as an arrow. If she doesn't like it than screw her!"
Seamus cut in, "I already have."
"You bastard!" Lavender yelled as she stood up. "How dare you! But you know what? I don't care anymore. You're a lousy boyfriend, friend, and you're just a lousy person in general. You are fucked up! Fine then! Go screw your girlfriend. Go crying to her. I don't give a shit. I hate you Finnigan, and you can't do anything, *anything* to fix that." She had a few tears now, out of anger or sadness, no one knew. But she wasn't done yet….
*SLAP! * And Seamus was left with a nice red handprint, the exact size of Lavender's right hand, across his left cheek. Lavender stalked out of the hall. Harry hurried after her.
Go Lavender!!! ( I'm going to leave you there, what going to happen next? Oh, it gets good…really, really, good. A fluffy little bunny'll be in my next chapter, but ya've got to review first! I love you all!
