The Summer After the Order

Chapter 3-some surprises -~-~-~-~-

"Come one Harry, I'll help you bring up your stuff to my room" Harry heard Ron said, though his voice was distant. Maybe it was just that Harry had been shifting in and out of focus during dinner, he had been thinking about Sirius' death and if he was truly gone.

"Ok, thanks Ron" Harry replied and got up from his chair and went into the hallway to get his trunk. He took one end and Ron took the other and they barely made it all the way up the zigzagging staircase before Ron dropped his end of the trunk right on his foot.

"HOLY --------"

"RON! WATCH YOUR LANGUAGE" Ron could hear his mother screaming from downstairs.

Ron opened the door of his room and Harry followed him inside. He placed his trunk at the end of the extra bed that had been placed across from Ron's. All of a sudden, Hermione and Ginny came in and Ginny hopped on top of Harry's bed, making the bedspread all messed up.

"So Harry, have you heard what Ron has been receiving in the mail ever since he got back here to the burrow?" Ginny questioned him.

"No actually. Why? What is Ron receiving? And who is it from?"

Hermione and Ginny burst into giggles while Ron's ears went scarlet. At that same moment, an owl came in clutching a deep pink envelope.

"Oh! Here's another one!" Hermione said in between giggles. Harry rushed over to see what the envelope was, but Ron grabbed it from the owl and ran out the door and downstairs. The two girls and Harry ran straight after him. Ron was standing by the fire, which was blazing bright.

"Ron! You know what'll happen if you just throw it in the fire again! Come on, read it!"

"No Hermione! I can't stand that weirdo girl doing this! I'll just throw it in and get it over with, anyway, it only shouts that crap for thirty minutes, and we can just put up the fireplace cover, that'll drown out most of the noise."

"Ugh, I hate to say I told you so Ron, but it's your own damn decision" Hermione replied.

Ron thrust the envelope into the fire which suddenly crumpled in the flames. Harry couldn't see what was so bad about throwing the letter in the fire until the room was showered in red heart confetti and Harry heard the screeches of no other than Luna Lovegood's voice saying "I LOVE YOU RONALD WEASLEY! I'M PROUD TO LOVE RONALD WEASLEY!" The screeches did indeed continue until Ron shut the fireplace cover in front of the fire and he went back over to Harry.

"I knew she had something for me all last year, she always starred at me whenever she and I were in the same room. Ugh, I don't know how much more of this I can take"

Harry just continued laughing along with the other two girls. He had no idea that Luna ever liked Ron, but then he just remembered that she did act strange around him.

Ron, Harry, Hermione, and Ginny all made their way back up to Ron and Harry's room. Ginny sat on Harry's bed along with him and Hermione sat rather close to Ron on his (a/n-*waves ship flags* woooohooo-but don't worry, it's not going to happen yet)

"So Ron, Luna has something for you? Ha, that's hilarious"

"Yeah, yeah-shut up Harry!"

The four of them had a rather fun time just talking about everything in Harry and Ron's room until they heard Mrs. Weasley calling for them to come to dinner. They all had a scrumptious dinner of ham and mashed potatoes along with several other dishes and deserts. The four teenagers made their way back upstairs for several games of exploding snap and wizards chess. Finally after what seemed like their millionth game of exploding snap the girls decided to go to sleep.

Harry curled up in his covers hoping that he wouldn't have another weird dream like the ones he had been having the previous nights. His eyes became heavy and before he knew it he was in a dream world.

Harry was walking down the corridor that led to the Slytherin commons and he stopped right in front of the blank patch of wall that was the opening to the common room. He said the password (serpent tongue) and made his way in to find the room deserted all except for one person who was lying cross- legged on one of the sofas.

"Harry! You're late again!" Draco said in somewhat of a gay tone and crossing his arms across his chest

"I'm so sorry Draco dear. I promise that it will never happen again"

"That's what you said the last time! You know, I'm starting to think I can't trust you anymore. When you asked me out I truly was in love with you, and I believed everything you said because it was coming out of your lips, my lover's lips. Now I think that's all just bull shit"

"Draco! No! I will never lie to you again! Never!"

"Harry, we are over" and with one last kiss on the cheek, Draco left to go up to his room. Harry had an urge to go after him, but decided it would be better if he just left.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" Harry screamed, waking the whole house.

"Harry! It's three in the morning! What the hell are you screaming about? Are you having dreams about You-Know-Who again?" Ron said

"No..this is far worse than any Voldermort dream." Harry replied

"Well what was it about?"

"Uh..well, it started out with me in the corridor leading to the Slytherin common room.."
