The Promise-22-All
Neximantida Beannacht
Harry lay awake thinking about what Dumbledore had said. There was to be a meeting between all those on the Light side who openly oppose Voldemort and do things about it because of the information Hermione had given him. Ron and Hermione was to join, this depending on the others votes. He wasn't afraid, he knew they would be welcomed with open arms because they were almost as famous as Harry. The only one he was worried about was Nexy. She came from America last year to join the resistance and since the first meeting she attended she's been trying to get Harry to go out with her. It hasn't worked. She's not his type. She's flashy always wearing borderline outfits that show a little to much cleavage and is way too tight. She always sits next to Harry during meetings and brushes her leg up against his. It was getting very annoying.
The meeting was scheduled for six in the evening and sooner then he thought he was walking down the corridor with Hermione and Ron. He told them to wait out there and went in.
Everyone was there and of course, like always, the only empty seat was next to Nexy. "Hi Harry, how are you today?" Harry sat and tried to smile. "I'm all right I guess, what about you? How was your trip back home?" Nexy smiled, "Great, I've missed Boston so much. Hadn't had much time lately to write to Ma and Dad so it was nice to see them again." Harry nodded ready for the meeting to start, "You should come with me next time." Nexy said sweetly them before she had a chance to say anything else Dumbledore stood and all was silent.
"Well, thank you all for coming on such short notice. We have a few things to discuss. First, there are two more people who wish to Join us in the fight against Voldemort. They are crucial to out fight and even if you do not except them into the Resistance, they will still be the main weapon in our fight." He pointed his wand at the Door and it opened. Hermione and Ron walked in and stood just inside the door. "May I present, Hermione Granger and Ronald Weasley?" Murmurs filled the room. Next to Harry Nexy scoffed. "What's wrong Nexy?" Harry said rolling his eyes and turning to her. She nodded at Hermione and Ron, "It's Obvious that they would never make good Resistance fighters. It looks like neither had seen a hard time, let alone an evil creature or dark lord." Harry couldn't help it, he laughed out loud. "What?" Nexy said, astonished at his reaction. "I'm sorry Nexy I forgot you grew up in America. You haven heard about these two. They," But he didn't get to finish as Dumbledore began to speak. "They have agreed to do a very complicated incantation with Mr. Potter there that is a mixture of a spell and potion. All in favor of their Joining the order raise your wand. All wands went up, Nexy's however reluctantly. Harry beamed, caught Dumbledore's eye and when he nodded, added 2 chairs to the left of him, opposite Nexy.
When Hermione and Ron were seated (Hermione next to Harry of course) Dumbledore began to speak once more. "Now that that's settled, Harry, Can you tell us how the potion is coming along?" Harry smiled, "Very well. We are just at the stage that you need to let it stand. Right after the meeting we're going to finish it off." Dumbledore nodded and shifted his gaze to Nexy. "I have a job for you. A week ago Sarah Vitatoe* vanished. We have reason to believe that she has been kidnaped by Death Eaters. I would like you to try to find out as much as you can. Nexy nodded. "That was all I wished to discuss, Is there anything anyone would like to add?" Harry stood. "I'm sure you all know that Draco was seriously attacked by Voldemort. He will be away for a few weeks for Arabella, Hermione, and Nexy's safety. He was infected with the Illae curse. So, ladies I suggest you not visit him." The three nodded and the meeting was adjourned.
Harry Hermione and Ron were walking to Harry's Potions Room when they heard footsteps behind them. "Harry! Wait up!" They turned to see Nexy running toward them. -She's gonna pop out of that shirt any time now.- Hermione thought and almost giggled. "Hey Harry." She said when she finally reached them completely ignoring Ron and Hermione. "I was wondering if you would like to go to dinner with me tonight. Like a Welcome Back thing?" Hermione glared but no one noticed. "Oh, so sorry Nexy, I'm too busy tonight. I have to finish the potion tonight and I was going to spend time with Hermione and Ron tonight." Hermione came next to Harry and put her arm around his shoulder. "Ree? Aren't you going to introduce us?" Harry turned to her and smiled, "Of course Mione. Nexy, You know Hermione and Ron, and like I was about to tell you in the meeting, they've been my best mates since 1st year. Ron, Hermione, that's Nexy." Nexy smiled at Harry, "Surely," she began, "you remember my full name?" Harry rolled his eyes, "Sorry, Hermione, Ron, This is Neximantida Beannacht**." Nexy gave a little smile. "Neximantida, that's an interesting name. Where did your parents think of it?" Hermione said as she unintentionally slipped her arm from his shoulder to his waist. "She was a well known witch that fought for the Wizarding army in the American Revolution." Hermione nodded and turned to look at Harry, her arm still around his waist. "We really need to get to that potion." Harry nodded and put his arm around her shoulders. "Of course. Nexy, please excuse us we need to be going." Ron smirked at the two, "It's been nice Nexy, we'll be seeing you." He said walking away.
"Neximantida, that sounds like her parents took a handful of Scrabble letters and put them together in a flattering way." Hermione said as soon as they were out of earshot of her. Harry started laughing but Ron looked confused. "What's Scrabble?" At this Hermione began to laugh and leaned on Harry a little more. Ron gave a little smirk as they walked into Harry's Potions Room. Hermione and Harry still with their arms around the other.
*Sarah Vitatoe is one of my best friends and as a joke I put her in here. She will appear again.
**Beannacht is Irish Gaelic word that means Blessing. I just thought it looked nice so I used it so there!!
