Son of the Accountant Chapter 3

Harry slowly opened the door a little more and stepped in. He lightly closed the door behind him thinking that Ginny couldn't hear him. Harry stood there for about a minute thinking of what he should say to approach her with. Before he had thought of anything Ginny spoke in a faint whisper.

"Hello Harry."

"Uh, hi, Ginny…," Harry started to walk towards her, "I, I've missed you."

At these words Ginny started to cry harder and Harry rushed over to her and took her in his arms in a comforting way.

"What's wrong, Ginny? Why won't you tell me?" asked Harry as he buried his face in her hair. "I can't tell you," she moaned, "not now."

Ginny lifted her head to look into Harry's eyes and he yet again saw that familiar look of fear in her eyes.

"But when I do tell you Harry," she continued in a slow desperate whisper, "promise me you won't do anything stupid. Don't leave me Harry. Don't ever leave me here."

Harry looked at her seriously and said, "I promise."

Hermione woke to the great smells of Mrs. Weasley's cooking. She quickly took a bath, dressed, and just as she was about to walk out the door she remembered Evan and ran back to the bathroom to straighten her hair. Once she was done she ran downstairs with a smile on her face. Evan was waiting for her at the bottom.

"Hi. Are you ready for that walk you promised me yesterday?" he asked smiling.

"Of course," said Hermione blushing a little.

As they made their way towards the door Mrs. Weasley came up behind them.

"And where are you two going?"

"Oh, um, we were just going to go for a walk," said Hermione as she turned around. "Without any breakfast?" asked Mrs. Weasley. "Oh, I'll eat when I get back," said Hermione reassuringly. "Alright dear I guess that's fine. Have a lovely time."

Evan and Hermione made their way outside and started walking down a long dirt road. Evan started to hum the beginning of a song and Hermione looked up at him with an amused look on her face.

"There's something about the look in your eyes something I noticed when the light was just right. It reminded me twice that I was alive. And it reminded me that your so worth the fight…"

"What are you singing?" asked Hermione. One of my favorite songs. It's from an American band called Incubus." "Lovely name for a band," said Hermione looking back down. "Yeah I love music. And reading….." At this Hermione became excited because she was a big reader herself. "Enough about me though. What do you love to do. Where do you love to go? I want to know everything about you."

"Well I love to read too and I'm learning as many languages as I can…"she began. "Oh really? I'm learning Italian," interrupted Evan, "I'm sorry. You were saying?"

Hermione smiled and continued.

"Well I'm uh, obviously a witch so I study everything there is to know and I'm already finished with my schooling." "Are you really? Me too. I'm looking for a job but I can't imagine going to a place that dread everyday and doing something that is not to my liking. I wish I could have a job where all I had to do would be to make music. I know it's possible but I haven't really put myself out there yet." "Do you play and instrument?" asked Hermione. "Yeah, the guitar. I love their sound." "Will you play for me later on?" asked Hermione sweetly. "Anything for you," said Evan smiling at Hermione.

They continued their walk along the road and Evan continued singing. He scooped down to pick a flower growing lonely on the side and handed it to Hermione. "Could you show me dear…something I've not seen Something Infinitely Interesting..."

Hermione then had the sudden impression that he truly meant to sing this song for her.

"Hermione tell me about Harry and Ron. I haven't truly gotten to know them yet." "Oh, well they're both really nice. Harry is really funny and easy to talk to and Ron, is, well, sometimes friendly," said Hermione oddly. "What do you mean sometimes friendly?" "Well Ron's known for being sarcastic and he gets jealous easily." "Hm, I should talk to my little cousin about that," said Evan and when his and Hermione's eyes met they both laughed.

They started walking back to The Burrow Hermione telling Evan all about the wizarding world and how it's different from the muggle world.

At the end of every sentence Evan would say something like: Really? Amazing. Or, How cool! Hermione deeply enjoyed this.

Harry and Ron had already taken a shower, dressed, and eaten when they went to play chess by the window.

"I wonder where Hermione is?" asked Harry. "According to mum she went on a walk with Evan," said Ron savagely. "Oh."

Harry and Ron continued their game with Ron glancing out the window every now then for a sign of Hermione. Just as Harry was about to take Ron's bishop he saw Hermione and Evan coming up the road holding hands. Harry quickly tried to distract Ron and he thought he succeeded in doing so by telling him he had something on his shirt. Ron looked down quickly to see nothing there and then he looked outside again. Ron's mouth dropped and Harry looked outside too.

Hermione and Evan were kissing right there just before they came in.

When they finished Hermione opened the door and both of them walked inside. Ron now had a look of pure hatred on his face. Harry immediately tried to think of a way to cheer him up. Harry saw Evan and said to Ron, "Son of the accountant." Ron looked at Harry, smiled a little, and then looked back at Hermione.

"And where have you been?" asked Ron rudely. "If you must know I was taking a walk with Evan," said Hermione in her old bossy voice. "Um, hi Harry, Ron. How are you?" asked Evan shyly. "Oh, fine tha-," started Harry but Ron cut him off. "Yes I must know because he's my cousin," said Ron pointing at Evan. Ron and Hermione continued bickering and Harry led Evan out of the room.

"They've been fighting like this ever since they first met," said Harry rolling his eyes. "They're acting like brother and sister," said Evan with a little laugh. "Well it gets on my nerves now and anyways…" "Um, Harry?" asked Evan. "What? Did you two see me and Hermione, um, outside?" "Yes, but I didn't mean to," said Harry quickly. "Is that what Ron's mad about?" asked Evan smiling. "Yeah but like you said it's like a big brother kind of looking out for his little sister," said Harry. "Well should we all go and do something?" asked Evan clapping his hands together. "Oh, yeah. Have you ever heard of Quidditch?" Harry could tell he didn't by the look on his face. "It's great. I'll show you how to play. Let's get the others," said Harry.
***

Later on after spending hours playing Quidditch and watching Ron trying to hit Evan off his broom, the seven of them made their way back up to the house for dinner. Ron kept sending furious looks towards Hermione and Evan while he watched them laugh together and talk in low voices.

As Mrs. Weasley cleared the plates with her wand Mr. Oshman chose to speak. "Well me and Phillipa and Evan have really felt welcomed here and are fascinated to learn more about all of you so we've decided to spend just one extra day with all of you."

"Oh Boris that's wonderful. We are all glad of the three of you staying," said Mrs. Weasley.

"Great, one more day of him," Ron whispered towards Harry as he nodded his head towards Evan. "Do you want to go upstairs?" asked Harry. "Sure, what else is there," said Ron as he got up from his seat.

As Harry and Ron walked towards the stairs they sensed someone behind them. Melanie was standing there obviously following them.

"Can I come too?" she asked.

To Harry's surprise Ron looked at her and said, "Fine, sure, whatever."

Melanie smiled brightly and immediately grabbed Ron's hand as he led her upstairs. Harry followed after them smiling and thinking that Ron atleast had a chance with one of the Grangers.

"Oh Evan this is great! I'm glad we get one more day together," said Hermione ecstatically. "Well I persuaded them for atleast one more day. I would have gotten them to stay longer but they need to get back to work," said Evan.

After dinner, Hermione and Evan had decided to walk up to the hill where the boys usually played a mock game of Quidditch.

Hermione started playing with a leaf on a tree nearby while Evan started looking around. Evan took a deep breath and looked at Hermione. She looked back up at him and looked into his eyes and felt something she never had before.

There's something about the way you move I see your mouth in slow motion when you sing More subtle than something someone contrives You movements echo that I've seen the real thing

Obviously Evan did too because what he did next made Hermione's heart stop.

Evan grabbed her by the shoulders lightly and looked deep into her bug brown eyes.

"Hermione," he said in a sweet whisper, " I, I never thought I would meet someone who meant as much to me as you do right now. And it's amazing since I haven't even known you for 2 days."

Hermione had a feeling she knew what he was going to say next.

Evan continued in the same whisper.

"You are one of the most amazing people I know and I love you for that. I truly love you."

Your biggest fear will be the rescue of you Strange how it turns out that way Could you show me dear…something I've not seen Something Infinitely Interesting…

Hermione took a deep breath and closed her eyes for a second and then gazed back up at him. She leaned in and kissed him lightly on the lips.

"I love you too."

"Whoops!" CRACK "Sorry Ronniekins." "Mel!" "Ron don't curse her!" "Aaahh!" "Ron, NO!" Melanie had been playing with Ron's antique models of the players of his favorite Quidditch team, the Chudley Cannons.

Ron went to scoop up one of the players whose head had cracked off. "No, no, no," he moaned as he tried to stick the players head back on only to watch it fall off again. "Ron, it's alright. I'll get you another," said Harry reassuringly. "But Harry, Hermione got this one for me…" began Ron until he noticed what he had just said. He dropped the model onto the floor carelessly. "But I guess it's alright."

Harry looked down at the tiny figure on the ground who was writhing around like crazy having just been decapitated. When Harry looked back at Ron he saw that Ron was staring out the window towards the hill where they play Quidditch.

"Do you want to go play Quidditch or something?" asked Harry. "No, because Hermione and pretty boy Evan have already invaded it," said Ron with a slight sneer.

"I just can't wait until he leaves," said Ron.

"I like Evan," said Melanie out of nowhere.

"Why? He's a useless and girlish idiot," said Ron looking at Melanie who was sitting on his bed still playing with his Chudley Cannons figures.

"Well he hasn't really tried to get to know us because he's always with Hermione but he's nice towards me. I'm not asking you to like him!" Harry added when he saw Ron roll his eyes.

"Yeah well either way it'll be better when he leaves," said Ron in a final sort of tone.

Harry honestly himself couldn't wait for Evan to leave too but not because he was annoyed by Evan but by Ron's attitude towards him. Harry saw that Ron looked put out so he tried to think of something to say.

"Ron, just tell her."

Ron looked at Harry curiously.

"Tell who what?"

"Hermione! Just tell her how you feel," said Harry.

Ron's eyebrows rose high until they were well hidden beneath his red hair. "Are you mad? Can you imagine what she would say? I can't imagine the horrible look I would get from her. I can't take anymore rejection," he said loudly.

"It was just a thought," said Harry weakly.

Harry and Ron looked over at Melanie who had just started to make the Quidditch player toys dance across Ron's bed to some made up strange music she was humming.

Joke of the Day:

A slug knocks on a door of a house, the owner opens the door, sees the slug, looks down at the slug and kicks it down the path. Three months later there's another knock on the door, the owner answers the door, and the slug says: "What did you do that for?"
