Part/Chapter: 13

Ron was the first one awake at his house on Tuesday. He was going to go see his best (male) friend today and stay until school started. He was excited to see him. They would be at Snape's but how cared as long as they could give Snape hell. (Of course he didn't know Serverus was Harry's uncle.) Although Harry had been acting a little strange lately but that was okay.

Hermione was the next one up. She was going to see one of her greatest friends. Harry was wonderful. Yes he was adventurous and wanted to play but not as much as Ron. He carried too much on his shoulders she thought. She knows something's up with Harry and professor but didn't know what. She wasn't worried, she would fund out soon.

Ron and Hermione meet on the stairs. As they were the only ones awake at five-thirty in the morning they decide to make breakfast for everyone. Eggs, sausage, and toast sounded great with apple juice and milk and oranges or bananas. The perfect breakfast. After they were finish Molly came into the kitchen.

"What's that wonderful smell?" She asks.

"That would be breakfast. So go eat." Hermione said.

"Thanks so much for making it. It smells so very good."

"Ok mum go eat." Ron said. Next came Author, Fred, George (they smelled the food), Herms, Ginny, and then Charlie who come home late last night. With each one Hermione and Ron sent them on there way to eat a good breakfast or so they thought they do a very good job. In the end they did. Everyone loved the food.

At the school Dumbledore and Minerva went to breakfast with some of the other teachers there. They talked of odd things with them and enjoy the meal although at the manor the food was just a wee bit better. After breakfast they got ready to go to the manor. Minerva loved to be with everyone there, they always had a good time.

At Tonks sister's Tonks and Remus woke up before Leann and Jason. (Tonks sister and her husband) After Leann was up they all cooked breakfast and talked about everything that was going on with each other. They were going to go back to the manor in the afternoon, during the day Jason and Leann were going to take them on a tour of the water area.

At the manor Serverus was the first one to wake. He went and got breakfast for himself and Harry told the house elves to be ready when people came. It was going to be a busy day even if Harry was still sick. Harry woke up a little after Snape came back. He had taken the potion again the night before and slept all night with no trouble. Serverus gave Harry his breakfast and sat down for his own.

"Harry, I want you to write down what you remember of your dreams. I will keep giving you the potion for the time but I don't think we need you to have to take it the rest of your life." Serverus said after breakfast.

"Ok. I will try." Harry replied. He wanted to get up today but he wasn't feeling too good and knew that his uncle wouldn't let him out of bed if he found out. Which knowing him he would.

"It's time for your scan. I suggest you go lay down and I'll be there in a moment." Snape said. Then went downstairs to return the breakfast dishes and see if anyone else was there yet. It was clear.

When he got back upstairs Harry was laying in bed with his book. He still looked tired but that was expected. He then scanned Harry. He still had a small fever and his stomach was still a little upset but other than that he was good. Or as good as one got like that.

"Okay Harry. You may go to lunch and dinner with everyone. But you will be sleeping in here tonight and you will come to me the minute you start to feel worse, even if it is before dinner. You're not aloud on the grounds. You are to act as expected in front of the other company even if you are with your friends and tonight you are to look descent. If you need anything at all you are also to come to me or if something happen. Am I understood?" Serverus didn't like having all those requirements as he didn't think Harry needed to be told how to act or told what to do. But he did need to be told that if anything did happen he Serverus needed to be told.

"Yes I understand. May I get up and take a shower and get ready for today?"

"You may. I except Ron, Hermione, and Herms here soon, so hurry."

"Okay."

Harry was glad his friends would be coming. But he would have to find a way to study and not during the night if at all possible. He could see that clearly. Being up at night and looking died Serverus would what to question him and then would make him return to bed for two days. Yup didn't want that at all cost. He also hoped that Ron and Hermione were together. They deserved that. After his shower he went to the main common room. There he would read while he waited for his friends. Serverus was working on a potion.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

At noon Ron, Herms, and Hermione came. Harry got up slowly as he was told that they were there. Then he went to the door. He opened it up right as the got to the last step. He then ushered them in. They went back to the common room and talked. Herms said and listened in for awhile.

"Harry we have something to tell you." Hermione said after they talked about how Ron's and Hermione's families were. Thinking now or never, looking over at Ron.

"Go ahead." Harry was hoping this was it.

"Well mate, were kinda together." Ron said nervously.

"What do you mean kinda together? How can you be kinda together?" Harry said while holding in his laugh. Serverus was on the stairs and he also had to hold in his laugh it was funny.

"Well we're together, then." Hermione said fearing the worst.

"That's great. Finally at last it took you six years. Wow!"

"What?" Ron and Hermione said at the same time.

"What you ask? Well I've known you both liked each other and been waiting for this. I'm glad it happened." Ron and Hermione looked pleased. "Were you worried I wouldn't like you together?"

"Y.Yes we were. Sorry mate should have thought better." Ron said feeling silly that they worried over it.

"Yes sorry Harry." Hermione was really glad it went over well.

"It's okay. No big deal. Are you alright now?"

"Yes, very much so. Thanks Harry. You're great." Hermione said.

"Ya mate we're better now! Thanks" Ron echoed.

"Okay guys its time for lunch. Let's go eat." Serverus said after there little conversation.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hermione and Ron just stared after him. Wow said that in a pleasant and calm voice. Harry looked at his friends then to Herms and then got up and followed. Herms' was the next to walk away. Ron and Hermione finally decided to hurry up before they made there professor mad at there tardiness. When they got in there professor Dumbledore and professor McGonagall were also seated along with everyone else form the common room. They quickly sat down next to Harry, Ron was in the middle.

The food was great. Hermione and Ron couldn't believe it. The food was good. Hermione knew that they had house elves but to see them bring the food in and not just have it appear was cool and professor Snape even thanked them. She didn't have as big of a problem as she did the previous years because she was understanding them. But it was still nice to see some people treat them good. Professor Snape hadn't yelled and was talking civil to everyone and it wasn't forced. Ron was in aw. Hermione knew he put up a front. She knew that since fourth year when they discovered him a spy. Ron knew too only didn't know how much truth there was to his acting as he was at it so long. Now he knew that Snape was decent and didn't have a problem with Harry staying here any longer.

After lunch Ron, Hermione, and Harry went to search out Ron's and Hermione's rooms. Harry showed them his and said he didn't know when he would be in it though. Then Ron and Hermione picked their room. Hermione picked the pink one as Harry had guessed then Ron took the blue one next to hers. Harry wasn't moving his room although it wasn't that close to them. He liked his dark green and wasn't giving it up. He then left them to pack and went and studied a little. He told them to come get him when they were done.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Harry went to his room and looked through his books. He didn't have any he hadn't been through so he decided to scan them until Ron and/or Hermione were done. Around three Hermione and Ron knocked on his door. He went out into the hall and he went to show them the house or as much as he knew. He didn't talk much only the necessarily. After he should them what he knew they asked about exploring the rest and he agreed. He wanted to see the rest of the house too. All the while they roomed Serverus watched them. Not because he didn't trust they but he wondered how Harry was dealing with everything.

When Harry looked at his watch it was 5:30. He knew he needed a shower and to change. He then suggested his friends should too and that they should look nice because more people would be there. They agreed and went to there rooms to get ready. At 5:55 he went and knocked on Ron's door. Ron came out looking ready to eat. They then went to Hermione's room and Ron knocked. She came out and they headed to dinner. They arrived at 6:02 but not everyone was there so it was fine. After everyone sat down the food arrived. Dumbledore, Snape, McGonagall, Lupin, Tonks, Herms, Jets, Leann, Jason, of course Ron, Hermione, and Harry were all there. The dinner was as good as ever. Ron really loved eating here.

When everyone was finished they went into the common room and played games. Around 11 Serverus told everyone to go to bed. He also gave instructions to his guest to pick a room what time breakfast was. After everyone but Albus, Harry and himself left he told Harry to move it. Then he told his grandfather that if Harry and himself wasn't at breakfast by 8:10 to eat without them. He had a feeling that Harry pushed himself too far. Albus went to his room and he went up to Harry's.

"Are you ready for bed?" Serverus asked as he approached the door.

"Yes." Harry replied as his uncle came in.

"Good. How do you feel?"

"Ok."

"Hum. That's not convincing. Lie back and I'm going to scan you ok."

"Yes." No point in trying to argue.

"Your fever is up. Your stomach is upset still? Do you have a headache?" Serverus asked after he finished his scan.

"My stomach never quit and yes. It started around dinner time."

"You didn't think to tell me? Harry I can not heal you if you do not tell me what is wrong or even if something is wrong. You have to tell me."

"I'm sorry."

"Ok. You ate well today though I'm glad. Here's the fever reducer and the sleep potion. If you wake up and need me yell. No wait if you wake up yell for me. We'll see if you can go down to eat breakfast in the morning okay. Go to sleep."

"Ok. Goodnight."

"Night."
