"YOU WHAT!" Ron shouted at Harry once they had gotten back to Grimmauld place.
"Malfoy will look after the girls, he's promised." Harry said.
"But his promises aren't worth much Harry." Hermione said.
"I tried to talk him out of it, I swear I did but he just ignored me." Jenny told the others.
"He's given me things that are incredibly precious to him, or they should be" Harry said.
"They're probably worth nothing." Ron said.
"Again, I've told him that." Jenny said waving a hand and highly aware no one was actually listening to her. Ginny gave her a sympathetic look.
"I don't know about that, I mean why would Malfoy trust Harry with anything at all, he hates Harry." Ginny said. "What did he give you?" Ginny shifted and sat next to Harry. Harry pulled out the necklace and the medal.
"Well, there's a necklace that really belongs to Pansy Parkinson, but Malfoy was wearing it around his neck so I reckon it must be worth something, and then there's this, an Order of Merlin, First class." Harry said.
"Why would Malfoy have an order of Merlin?" Hermione asked.
"He wouldn't tell us." Jenny said, "But I suppose Ginny's right, why would Malfoy give anything to Harry, let alone his broom, necklace and order of Merlin."
"Well, I suppose we'll have to trust Malfoy." Ginny said, "I mean who else can promise us what he's promised."
"I don't like it." Ron said, crossing his arms. He looked at Hermione who nodded her head in agreement.
"You two can do what you want but I'm sticking with Ron with this one. We can't trust Malfoy." Hermione said. "I can't believe Pansy Parkinson is head girl!"
"Harry." Jenny whispered into the dark room. Harry sat up in his bed and looked at the door where Jenny stood just inside the closed door.
"What are you doing?" Harry whispered. Jenny ran over to him silently and hugged him.
"I feel a bit ill." She said "I think it's the fact that school started tomorrow." Harry glanced over to Ron, who was fast asleep in his bed and snoring very slightly. Harry put his arms around Jenny and pulled her under the duvet with him.
"It's ok," Harry said.
"I never thought I'd dread going to Hogwarts." Jenny said, pressing her face into Harry's chest. "I'm going to miss you so much."
"I'll miss you too but we'll always be with each other." Harry said. Jenny gave a slight nod.
"I love you so much." Jenny said, Harry's hold on her tightened slightly as a thought came into his head. That might be the last time he would hear her say that. This could maybe, be their last night together. Malfoy could back down on his word and Jenny could- Harry didn't want to think about it.
"I love you more then anything Jenny." Harry whispered into her hair as he closed his eyes. He felt Jenny shaking slightly in his arms and he pulled her even closer. "What's wrong?" Harry asked.
"Nothing." Jenny said as she turned over in the bed. Harry wrapped his arms around her belly and kissed her neck.
"I know something is wrong." Harry said. Jenny stared at Ron's flaming red hair, the only thing other then Jenny's own hair that was visible in the dark. Her face was damp with a few tears that she had just cried.
"Jenny?" Harry urged gently. Jenny swallowed down her tears and lay on her back as she looked into Harry's emerald eyes, Jenny couldn't believe how lucky she was. A few lyrics from a Muggle song that Jenny had heard over the summer came to her mind
I see the heavens
Each time that you smile
I hear your heartbeat
Just go on for miles
And suddenly I know
My life is worth while
That's what I see
Through your eyes
"It's nothing. Really." Jenny said. She let Harry pull her against him and closed her eyes. Harry felt slightly worried about Jenny, he felt worried about all his friends, Hermione, Ron and Ginny. He couldn't believe he was just letting them leave for a Hogwarts that was being ruled by Voldemort. Soon he closed his eyes and went to sleep.
"Harry," Ron said prodding him, "Harry, I'm going to be going soon." Harry rubbed his eyes with his left hand. He tried to lift his right arm but something held it down. He grabbed his glasses and put them on he looked at Ron, who was looking at him weirdly.
"What?" Harry asked.
"You have a strange lump there." Ron said prodding the lump.
"Stop it." Jenny moaned from under the covers. Ron shouted in surprise and staggered back on his bed. He looked more then surprised in fact he looked like he could faint.
"Oh shit it's Jenny." Ron said. Jenny pushed the covers out of her face and looked at Ron. She then turned and smiled when she saw Harry.
"Hi." Harry said with a smile. Jenny gave him a kiss and murmured a reply.
"I-I'll leave you two alone." Ron said getting to his feet and leaving the room. Harry lay back down and Jenny sat up and ran a hand through her hair.
"Did he say we have to go soon?" Jenny asked quietly.
"Yeah." Harry said. He put an arm on Jenny's legs and she smiled at him.
"I guess I should finish packing." Jenny said looking at Harry sadly.
"I suppose you should but before you go I want to give you something." Harry said. He got up and went to a few drawers where he had put all his things into. He opened one and pulled out a few items. Jenny stood up and followed him. She put a hand on his hips as he rummaged through the drawer. Jenny could see two broomsticks propped up against the wall. One was Harry's Firebolt, the other was Malfoy's Nimbus Two thousand and one.
"Jenny." Harry said. Jenny looked at Harry. "Here. You might need these more then me." Harry handed her a folded silver cloak with a piece of parchment on top.
"Your invisibility cloak?" Jenny asked looking at Harry in surprise. "I can't-"
"You can, you will need it more then me." Harry said, "And the map. I want you to have them this year." Jenny stared at Harry amazed.
"I don't know what to say." Jenny said.
"Take them and look after them." Harry said. Jenny smiled and put them on top of the drawers. She put her arms around Harry's neck and pulled him into a deep kiss.
"Ok, are you all ready?" April asked the four teens waiting to leave for school. Harry could see that none of them really wanted to leave. He squeezed Jenny's hand, none of them had left yet and Harry wasn't allowed to go with them. He was sitting on the stairs next to Jenny. Jenny gave a slight smile and she looked at her hand in Harry's. Ron's reaction that morning when he woke up to find Jenny asleep with Harry in his bed had been one of those moments that would stay with Harry for the rest of his life. Harry smiled at it and looked at Ron. Ron had been a little awkward since he had woken up Harry and Jenny and seemed to be staying strangely close to Hermione.
"Ron!" Hermione said, "What's up with you?" She looked at Ron.
"I'll tell you later." Ron said. Hermione frowned and nodded.
"Ok, lets go. Harry you stay here." April said looking over at Harry. He nodded and looked at Jenny.
"Bye." She said quietly. She leaned over to him and gave him a lingering kiss on his cheek. Harry just looked as she got up and followed her mum out of the house. Harry knew he should try and follow but he reckoned it would be less painful for Jenny if he stayed where he was. Hermione gave him a sisterly hug, as did Ginny.
"See ya mate." Ron said. Harry nodded.
"Send me some letters to let me know how you are." Harry said. Ron nodded, "And look after Jenny for me." Ron nodded and Harry smiled at him, a smile that Ron returned.
"Just look after yourself Harry." Hermione said, "We'll be fine." Harry smiled as Hermione grinned at him.
"Come on you two." Lupin said ushering Ron and Hermione out of the house. "See you in a while." Lupin said to Harry before closing the door. Harry sighed and head towards the kitchen to get a butterbeer. Sirius sat at the table reading the Daily Prophet.
"Hi" Harry said glumly. Shoner came out of the cupboards holding a bottle of butterbeer for Harry. Sirius looked up.
"Hello Harry, you look slightly depressed." Sirius stated as he made the observation.
"How would you feel if your friends went somewhere they could be killed?" Harry asked. "And you can't do anything about it or go with them."
"Ah, yes." Sirius said, "I have to admit that I never saw it coming. Voldemort using Hogwarts."
"Dumbledore did." Harry said. "He gave us a few hints during last year." Harry took a swig of his butterbeer and put his head on the table. Sirius watched him curiously then folded up his newspaper.
"You look just like James when Lily found out about our secret." Sirius said. Harry looked up curiously.
"What secret?"
"That we're animagi." Sirius said. "Your mum didn't talk to him for months. He looked a bit like you do now, none of this would happen to have anything to do with my daughter would it?" Sirius asked.
"A bit." Harry said. "I miss her already and I'm really worried, I really shouldn't have let her go back to Hogwarts."
"April assures me that Jenny can look after herself and I have to say that I think Jenny will be fine." Sirius said with a smile. Harry smiled slightly. "Now, I just don't want you sharing a bed with her though. I heard Ron's shout this morning."
"Yeah but I bet you did it when you were my age." Harry said. Sirius gave a knowing smirk.
"Yes, but for good reasons" Sirius said. He picked up the paper again and flipped through a few pages until he got to a crossword.
"Yeah, whatever" Harry muttered. Sirius smirked but didn't look away from the crossword
Ron felt Hermione's grip on his arm tighten when they got onto platform nine and three quarters. There were hooded men lining the walls and making sure that people didn't spend too long saying bye.
"This is not going to be a good year." Hermione said. "I shouldn't have come." Ron also felt the eyes of several Deatheaters on him and Hermione. Jenny was obviously feeling it as well because she glanced at Ginny worriedly.
"Potter's friends." Said a deatheater. They all turned to look at a deatheater. They could see his cold grey eyes through his hood. Malfoy. "We have a special compartment for you." He made to reach for Hermione when April whipped her wand out. Several deatheaters responded immediately.
"Touch her and I will kill you, even in front of all these children." April snarled. Malfoy looked at her and backed away.
"You have the front carriages with the rest of the Gryffindors, we can keep an eye on you there." Malfoy said, eyeing April's wand suspiciously.
"Now back off Malfoy." April said. Malfoy turned to the Deatheaters and waved a hand, indicating to them to get back to their positions. "Good." April led the four to the front Carriages.
"You know what to do if any of you have any trouble?" Lupin asked them. They all nodded.
"I'll send Castra every day." April said, "and don't worry about a thing"
"Ok," Jenny said. She gave April a tight hug and looked to Ginny, they both boarded the train.
"We'll keep an eye on them April" Hermione said with a sad smile.
"Thanks. Good luck you two." April said. Hermione gave April a hug as well and Ron simply shook hands with her.
"Thanks for looking after us" Ron said as he followed Hermione onto the train.
"Ron, Hermione!" Ginny called, "Here." Ron and Hermione went to the compartment that Ginny was at. They went in to find that Dean Thomas and Lavender sat there looking quite glum.
"Where's everyone else?" Ron asked, referring to the rest of the Seventh years.
"Pavarti and Padma aren't returning this year, Neville is staying with Seamus in Ireland and are going to complete their NEWTs there." Dean told them as Ron and Hermione sat down.
"Also, Most of the Ravenclaw seventh years haven't returned and half of the Hufflepuffs had come back." Lavender said. "I see you're not the Golden Trio any more."
"The Golden Trio?" Hermione asked.
"Harry's missing." Lavender said pointing to her and Ron.
"Yeah well, He'd be killed if he came back." Ron said. Lavender and Dean glanced at each other.
"To our seventh year." Dean said glumly.
