Hey guys this chapter is mostly about Hermonie and Ron because I thought you guys needed to know things before the next chapter was written so that you understand everyone's feelings.  I updated sooner than I thought because the 7th chapter will take a very long time to write I'm considering turning it into 2 chapters so you guys can read it faster!! This chapter will be the last of the summer so enjoy.

Disclaimer: Well duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I so am not J.K soooooooo why do I even bother to write this damn thing.

Chapter 6

    Harry was so steamed after the fight with Snape; even Dumbledore chose his time wisely to talk to him.  Dumbledore cleared his throat as he leaned into the room. Dumbledore wasn't at the headquarters often so Harry decided to let him talk. " Harry, I know that Severus was wrong for saying what he said about Sirius but that does not give you the right to get into a fight with him", Dumbledore stated sadly.

   " I know", said Harry, "but I'm over that now. I know I was wrong for fighting him the way I did, and I know as soon as I get back to school he's going to get his payback. The strange thing is I not worried about it. What bothers me is what he was saying before he insulted Sirius. Who is the person everyone seems to be talking about?!!!! Why is everyone hiding something from me?"

  " Harry ", Dumbledore said patiently, " I know how you hate not knowing what's going on, I would love to tell you now but I was asked not to and I promised I wouldn't. All your questions will be answered soon. I must leave now but I will check in from time to time." And with that he left the room.

The summer went fine at the headquarters. Harry had to contently deal with calming Ron down. He was impatient with everyone and really rude at times. Hermonie was getting sick of it. One day Harry walked in on them in the parlor. They were yelling and were really close to each other's faces. As they became closer while yelling, they stopped and realized just how close they were. Harry could tell they were inches from kissing when  Mrs. Weasly suddenly waltzed into the room. They sprang apart.

   When asked about it later, both denied anything and everything.  It when on like this until Ron was about to explode. He was just about to tell Harry off when he walked into the bathroom to find Ginny in a very awkward position. She was surrounded by pornography and was trying to copy the exotic  positions made by the people in them while in her underwear. At this, Ron lost it. "Ginny", he yelled." What in the hell are you doing in here?!!!!!!!! What is with this fascination of yours!!!!!!!!!!!! I have the right mind to tell Mum!!!!!!!!!!!! As soon as he mentioned their mother Ginny started to straighten up while begging Ron not to tell. Ron promised he wouldn't and Ginny left the Ron. This was a typical day at headquarters.

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

Then, Harry's birthday arrived.  That morning Harry woke up to an amazing smell. He had just had another strange dream again ( thankfully there wasn't anything to clean up) when Ron waltzed into the room and yanked him out of bed. " You have to get up Harry it's your birthday!!!!!!!!" he shouted.

    Harry got up with only the dream and not  his birthday on his mind. Who was this girl he kept dreaming about ? Why was he having these dreams? Harry finished getting ready and went down stairs with Ron only to be greeted by fireworks, bubbles and a small crowd of people. Once everything came into view, Harry could tell that The Weasley's, Hermonie, Dumbledore, Lupin, Tonks, and Moody were all gathered around a long t able similar to the ones in the Great Hall. There were decorations everywhere and a large banner that read: Happy Birthday Harry, hung across the entranceway. Everyone yelled "Surprise! Happy Birthday Harry!"

     Harry was speechless. They had thrown him his first birthday party. They had done all this for him. Ron awoke him from his dreams." Just don't stand there Harry open your gifts" Ron practically yelled into his ear. Harry saw on the table that was littered with confetti and party crackers, there was a large pile of gifts. Harry walked over to the table as everyone watched on with grins on their faces.  Harry grabbed the first present and unwrapped it was a box of chocolate frogs from Ron. He smiled at Ron and a said " Thanks".

This is when everyone rushed towards him in a hurry to give him his or her present.  Harry received a book on seeker techniques from Hermonie, a carved box that played Phoenix songs from Ginny, a practice snitch from Bill, a necklace with a dragon's fang charm on it from Charlie, a box of Bernie's Every Flavor Beans from Tonks, a leather journal from Dumbledore, glasses that could see thru walls from Mr. Weasly, a green robe and slippers from Mrs. Weasly, a bag with his initials on it from Percy, and a lifetime gift certificate from Weasly's Wizard Wheezes from George.

   And after all that Harry still hadn't opened three gifts. He opened a gift wrapped in paper with snitches on it . It was a black box with the words " Quick Quidditch" on it.  "That's from me" , said Fred.

  " What is it ?" asked Harry

   " It's and indoor quidditch field!" Fred said "It's our latest item"

" Well, it's not technically ours, its……George stopped himself from carrying own realizing he had almost said something he wasn't supposed to.

  Lupin broke the awkward silence. " Here's my gift Harry" he said. Harry opened Lupin's gift. It was the two-way mirror that Sirius had given him. Harry had broken it earlier that year, but Lupin must have found the pieces and repaired it for him. " I know you like to keep things that belonged to your father, soooooooo………" Lupin began. Harry looked up at Lupin and smiled . Lupin breathed out a sigh of relief.

There was one last gift. It was a small package wrapped in green paper sloppily. Harry opened it . Inside was a silver necklace with a locket on it. The locket was a strange shape, sort  of like half of a star, but inside was a picture of Harry and his father, with the words Harry and James engraved around the border and another picture of a woman with Sirius and engraved around the border were the words Sirius and  Rose . " It was your mother's most treasured item. I found it awhile ago and decided  that you should have it."  Said Moody.  Harry's eye's sprinkled with tears as he thanked Moody about a thousand times.

    Everyone celebrated with food including a large caked Mrs. Weasly baked. Butter was passed out and before anyone could take a sip Lupin clicked his bottle with a spoon. " I have an announcement to make and since we are all celebrating anyway I thought this would be a great time".  Then, Lupin toke Tonks' hand and they stood side by side. " Everyone. We're getting married" said Tonks. She was surrounded as Hermonie , Ginny, and Mrs. Weasly questioned here with when's and where's. All the men went up to Lupin and  shook his hand and said Congratulations. Lupin looked at Harry and they shared a smile. Harry walked up to Lupin and said " It's about time" they laughed and everyone continued to party even harder until it was late.

 By that night everyone was exhausted  from all the celebrating. Harry lay asleep studying the locket. Who was the woman with Sirius?  Had Sirius have had a girlfriend or something? Or had she just been a friend of his mother's and taken the picture with Sirius?  He went to sleep with all of those questions in mind .

llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

     He awoke one morning later than usual and had his Hogwarts letter on his stomach. He had just had another dream. After reading his letter Harry got up and got dressed fully knowing that he had to make a trip to Diagon Alley  that day just to get his school supplies out of the way. He went downstairs and ate breakfast with everyone as usual. They grabbed their money and filled their pockets. When everyone was ready ( Harry, Ginny, Ron, and Hermonie) they all turned to Mrs. Weasly who wasn't holding her purse or even looked remotely like she was going somewhere. " Oh", she said, "I won't be taking you four today. Remus has volunteered to take you since he will be there anyway."

  Lupin arrived not long after she finished. They all made their way through the door with list in hand toward the metro. They all toke the metro to the heart of London. The whole way down there, Hermonie and Ron sat next to each other without a word but kept looking at one another until the other notice and whom ever was looking would turn their head and pretend they weren't looking. Hermonie seemed to get angrier with Ron every time he turned his head. Ron would try to say something then change his mind.

   Their whole game was enough to make Ginny and Harry very bored and so they would just read over their school lists in peace and quiet. When they arrived at the Leaky Cauldron it was as quite as a mouse. The place was filled with people but they were all quite as soon as they entered and everyone saw Harry. Then, as soon as they had gotten quite they began to apologize to him all at once. Begging for him to forgive them for ever doubting " The Boy who lived" . Harry accepted everyone's apologies and walked out into the entrance along with Lupin and the others. By the time he managed to get into the alleyway his was out of breath for saying thing like " that okay" and " it's not that big of a deal".

  Lupin tapped the bricks with his wand and the gateway opened  onto Diagon Alley. " Okay Everyone," Lupin announced ," How about you four go search for you school thing and meet me at this spot in one hour." Everyone quickly nodded his or her head and Lupin went off down the alley. They then started down the alleyway. Ginny and Hermonie went off together and Ron and Harry went off together. After, collecting their school things , Harry went and got his robes tailored considering over the summer some how he had grown another 7 or 8 inches. He hadn't really noticed until a few days earlier considering all he did through the summer to keep from going bore was use his indoor quidditch field. It came in handy all you had to do was open it turn a little handle inside twice and your room was transformed into a quidditch field without a seconds notice.

   Due to all his intensive training Harry had developed a nice muscular build. He knew his height wouldn't affect his seeker skills considering he had practiced hard.  It turned out Harry had to buy all new robes since his change in height and shape. Ron didn't mind waiting while he got fitted either, he just sat quietly by the window and checked over his school list again.

 The group all met back up at the entrance way. Ginny and Hermonie toke the longest to get back and where carrying bags full of thing Harry was sure wasn't on the school list. When Ron tried to peek in Hermonie's bag Harry was sure Ron had just made a death wish. They all made their way back home, Ginny and Hermonie were huddled together whispering and looking through pictures and pieces of paper with telephone numbers that Ginny had gotten during the trip. Ron ignored this as much as possible and made his way right to his and Harry's room as soon as they walked into the door. Harry just shook his head and followed Ron saying under his breath " This is going to be a long year."

Sooooooooooooooooooooooooo………………. What did you guys think? I know I didn't get all my errors but I'm working on getting a beta reader so don't worry! I changed the story midway through writing it so I cut out a lot of Herm/Ron action because it revealed a lot about the plot. The next chapter will be up during Feb. for sure and I might write two more this month if I can. The upcoming chapter will introduce the new character. The next Chapter :  Aboard The Hogwarts Express with and Enchantress!
