WARNING-This chapter has alot of swearing.
Ron and Ginny walked into the room that Ron and Harry had shared. The first thing they saw was Harry and Hermione kissing each other on Harry's bed. Ginny gasped while Ron started to turn redder and redder.
"WHAT THE FUCKING HELL ARE YOU DOING?" Ron yelled at them.
Harry and Hermione separated only to see Ron and Ginny in the room looking shocked. They saw that Ron was completely red, which meant that he was real angry at them while Ginny seemed to be more surprised and shocked than angry at them.
"Um, Ron you have to understand..." Harry began to say but Ron interrupted him.
"Understand what?" Ron yelled, "my two best friends are now in love with each other just like that?"
"Ron, please give us a chance to explain..." Hermione began to say before Ron interrupted her too.
"Understand what? That you never had any feelings for me but it was always your darling Harry there to save the day?" Ron shouted.
"Ron, stop acting like an idiot and listen to what they have to say" Ginny said nervously.
"WHY THE FUCK IS EVERYBODY TELLING ME WHAT I SHOULD DO? IT'S SO GODDAMN OBVIOUS THAT HARRY AND HERMIONE ARE IN LOVE AND THEY DON'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT ME ANYMORE" Ron yelled, leaving the room and slamming the door shut behind him.
After Ron left, there was a silence among the three people in the room. Hermione started to cry on Harry's shoulder and he held her tightly as he tried to console her. Ginny stood shocked on by the door surprised at how her older brother had acted. She was the first to recover and spoke.
"So, both of you are finally together?" she asked.
"Yeah," Harry replied, "but it seems like there are some people who aren't too happy with the news" he said.
Ginny looked sadly at the new couple who deserved to be together but had to deal with obstacles such as her brother who had acted nothing but an idiot. Sighing, Ginny left the room leaving the couple with some much deserved privacy.
After Ginny had left, Hermione grinned at Harry and started to kiss him. She pulled him down to the bed so that she was on top of him and put her hands in his messy black hair. Harry responded by putting his hands around her waist and pulling her closer to him. They continued to kiss each other in an attempt to do something they should have done before.
"Harry, how come you're not mad or upset at me?" Hermione asked.
"Hermione, even though you may be the daughter of Bellatrix Lestrange, you chose not to follow in her footsteps. The choices that we make help define us as a person and well you made your choice" Harry said.
"Yeah, but at the Ministry, Bellatrix sent Sirius through that veil and he died. Aren't you going to be upset or angry about that?"
"Hermione, if anything I would be mad at Bellatrix because she's the one who did that. You may have her blood in your veins but you chose to fight for the side of the light. You know, back in first year the Sorting Hat wanted to put me in Slytherin but I chose not to go there."
"The Sorting Hat tried to put you in Slytherin?"
"Yeah but as you can see, I chose not to go, which is why I'm not a Slytherin right now. Enough talking already, can we continue kissing?"
Hermione laughed before Harry kissed her gently. They stayed on Harry's bed kissing each other and only stopped when they had to go downstairs for dinner.
"I don't want to hear a word but I do
Go to hell, who needs you?
I say this cause I don't believe you
Take my words the way I'm taking yours
It's not fair you know me
So you don't even hear me
Listen once and listen close to me
Even a heart transplant wouldn't show you how I feel would it baby?
Tearing up my past now Yeah it wouldn't show you how I feel Would it now?"
-Punchline, "Heart Transplant"
Ron sat as far away as he could from Harry and Hermione that night for dinner. Harry and Hermione had now told various members of the Order including Tonks, Remus Lupin, Moody, Mrs. Weasley, Kingsley Shacklebolt and the Bill that they were now a couple. Everyone had seemed happy for them especially Remus, who seemed to be overjoyed at the fact that they were now a couple. Ron scowled disgustingly then went back into the living room to sit. A few minutes later, Ron saw that the two people he had least wanted to see had entered the room and were sitting near him.
"Ron, may we please talk to you?" Hermione asked.
"What the hell do you want from me? Can't you leave me alone already and get on with your fucking relationship without me?" Ron asked, his voice rising.
After hearing what Ron had to say, Hermione started to cry again. Harry then got up and glared at Ron angrily. Ron glared back at Harry with a look of anger and for a moment, both of them glared angrily at each other while Hermione looked at both of them with fear in her eyes.
"What the fucking hell is wrong with you Ron?" Harry asked angrily.
"The question is what the hell is wrong with you and Hermione? After all we have been through, you would think that we're like the Golden Trio but we're not. It has always been about you, Harry and now it's about you and Hermione. There's no more fucking room for the tragic sidekick Ron Weasley" Ron said, practically shouting.
"Well you're wrong Ron. You've just been too goddamn blind to see it and as a result, act like an asshole" Harry replied.
Ron glowered at Harry and Hermione angrily as various members of the Order were now watching the encounter between Harry and Ron with concern. Ron then spoke in a low voice that indicated he was really angry and upset with them.
"Watch what you're saying Harry. It's always been you, hasn't it? You get to be the 'boy who lived', the Triwizard champion, the person that Cho had a crush on last year and now you can probably get any girl in the school to date you. Hell, I'd bet even some of the Slytherins wouldn't mind dating you Harry. How long is it going to be before you see Hermione naked? What else could you fucking want?" Ron said, punching Harry in the face and causing his nose to start bleeding. Ron then angrily ran upstairs to his room.
When Hermione saw Ron punch Harry, she immediately got up from the couch and held a hand up to his nose. Luckily, there wasn't too very much blood and most of the heavy bleeding stopped after a few seconds. By now Mrs. Weasley was holding a wet towel to Harry's nose while Fred, George, Ginny and Bill Weasley had all gone to speak with Ron.
"Are you okay Harry?" Hermione asked anxiously.
"Yeah, I'm actually more shocked that Ron would do that" he replied.
After the bleeding had stopped, Harry and Hermione held hands and went back up to Hermione's room but before they could get there, they were interrupted by Ron who looked depressed, and it seemed he had been crying for a while. Hermione tensed up against Harry, ready to hide behind him if Ron started to yell and scream at them again. Instead, Ron spoke in a voice that was unlike his own and unlike the voice he had been using before.
"Harry, Hermione, I'm really sorry about how I reacted before. I should have been supportive of your relationship but instead I acted like a fucking dick and I shouldn't have. Can you forgive me?" Ron said, tears falling down his face.
Hermione was the first one to recover. She went over and hugged Ron. "Of course we'll forgive you, right Harry?" she said as Harry nodded.
"Thanks you two" Ron said as he wrapped his arms around Harry and Hermione in a bone crushing hug and releasing them after a minute.
Harry then decided to tell Ron and Hermione the contents of the prophecy and Ginny too, if he could find her. He was about to go and look for Ginny when she came up, holding two letters.
"Hey, Ron you got a letter" Ginny said, giving him a letter.
"Um Ginny, Ron and Hermione, there's something I have to tell you" Harry whispered. He waited until they had all entered the closest room which was the room Ginny and Hermione shared.
"So, what do you have to tell us?" Hermione asked Harry.
"Do you remember the prophecy Voldemort was trying to get back at the Ministry last June?" Harry asked.
"Yeah, the prophecy was destroyed" Ginny said.
"Actually, the official record of the prophecy was destroyed. There was another way to hear the prophecy and Dumbledore told me what the contents of the prophecy were," Harry said.
"Who made the prophecy?" Ron asked.
"Trelawney made the prophecy before I was born" Harry said, as Ginny, Ron and Hermione snorted.
"That stinking fraud made the prophecy?" Ron asked.
"Yeah, she made the prophecy and it was one of her real predictions. Basically it says that I'm the only one who can beat Voldemort and either he kills me or I will kill him," Harry said.
"Why is it you? Can't Dumbledore stop him?" Ginny asked angrily with tears in her eyes.
"See the thing is Voldemort marked me as an equal with the scar I have" Harry said. He took a deep breath and looked at how they had reacted to the contents of the prophecy. Hermione and Ginny were looking at him sadly and crying while Ron looked lost.
"You're not in this alone Harry" Hermione said, hugging him.
"Yeah, we got your back" Ginny said, giving him a hug.
"I'm in this shit man. I got your back Harry" Ron said, giving him a slap on the back.
Harry was surprised at how they had reacted when they learned about the prophecy from him. He felt overcome with emotion and was unable to speak for a few minutes. When he was finally able to speak, he said "Thanks for the help and support. You don't know how much it means to me" he said.
"Oh yeah and Harry? I think me and Ron will share a room this time" Ginny said.
"Oh okay. Thanks Ginny" Harry said as Ginny and Ron left the room.
As soon as Ginny and Ron had left, Hermione put her arms around Harry and started to kiss him. They kept kissing for several minutes and finally ended up on Hermione's bed, kissing each other. Suddenly they heard two pops and saw Fred and George standing in their room.
"Oi, Harry can't you keep your hands off Hermione for a minute?" Fred asked.
"Hey, what do you two want?" Harry asked.
"We were here to congratulate you on ending up with such a fine young witch" George said, bowing to Hermione.
"We can never forget how she waged war on us as a prefect and we admit she was a tougher opponent than Filch and Snape combined" Fred said.
"That is why we are here with a gift for the two of you" George said, taking out a box and giving it to Harry.
"What is this?" Harry asked.
"Open it and you will know" Fred said.
Harry opened the gift cautiously, knowing there might be a prank but when he opened it, he saw a heart shaped picture frame. It was made of pure silver and had the words 'Harry and Hermione' engraved all over the frame.
"Wow, thanks" Hermione said when she saw the gift.
"You are quite welcome madam" George said, bowing to Hermione.
"Now we need to take your picture" Fred said, taking out a camera from his pockets.
Harry and Hermione got closer to one another and posed for the picture which Fred took. After two minutes, a picture came out from the front of the camera and George took it.
"Aww, the two of you look so cute" George said as Fred nodded in agreement.
"Well, we must be off" Fred said, giving them a salute and then with two pops, the Weasley twins disappeared.
"They're right Harry. We do look make a cute couple" Hermione said, giggling lightly.
"That's because you're so beautiful Hermione" Harry said kissing her. Soon both of them were on Hermione's bed kissing each other. Finally, they reluctantly paused for air.
"Did I tell you you're a good kisser Harry?" Hermione asked.
"Yeah and did I ever tell you you're beautiful Hermione?" Harry asked.
"Oh shut up and kiss me" she said.
Within minutes, both of them were passionately kissing each other. Hermione was moving her hands around Harry's well toned upper body while Harry had his arms around her waist. Tongues met tongue as Harry and Hermione did something they should have done earlier. They then heard the door open and Tonks came inside. Immediately they stopped but Tonks had seen enough.
"I'm just here to tell you that we're going to Diagon Alley tomorrow" Tonks said, blushing furiously.
"Why?" Hermione asked.
"It's because your OWL results and your new book lists will be here tomorrow and the D-Man wants you to get your stuff tomorrow. Someone from the Order will be taking you two to Diagon Alley for safety purposes" Tonks said.
"Well thanks Tonks" Harry said.
Tonks left the room and left Harry and Hermione alone in the room. By now it was almost eleven o clock and both of them were tired and decided to sleep. They changed into pajamas, brushed their teeth and then went to sleep on separate beds after a good night kiss.
