(A/N: Sorry it has taken so long but I have been having issues with my computer hopefully everything is fine now.)

Tynan: You will be seeing Harry with more of a spine soon it is all part of my master plan.

Shadowface: See I told you it would. I won't worry about who ever that flamer was. I was a little mad when I first read the review but then decided that they could go to H E double hockey sticks for all that I cared. That's too bad about what happened to you. And well as for impressionable little kids lets just say the ones that are running around in my head are scared for life thanks to that reviewer.

TimGold: Sorry for the misunderstanding and thanks for the support. As for writing a Harry/Tonks story I do plan on writing one because like you that is my favorite ship. I have only about 3 paragraphs started on that project but I won't be doing much with that until I'm done with this story and then I have two other ideas for stories that demand my attention.

Hellow2: Glad you still like it and I will try to work on the chapter length.

ERMonkey: Me evil? How could you say that? Now my feelings are hurt. ;-)

Ms.Marvel: Isn't he though.

Chapter 9 True love Found

"ER...hello Narcissa glad to see you're awake." He said as he walked to her bedside. "Hello Harry its good to see you to. How have you been." She asked as she smiled at him. "I've been fine. Here this is for you." He handed her the fire rose and she gasped. "Wow Harry this is beautiful thank you." She pulled him into a hug and gave him a peck on the cheek. "Your welcome." Replied Harry.

They sat around talking but Harry wasn't listening to what they where saying. His hind was on what had happened over the last few days. After awhile Andromeda had to leave so said her good-byes and Tonks walked her out leaving Harry and Narcissa alone.

"So what happened that night and why did you leave me?" Harry asked his betraying the hurt at her actions and his concern for her safety. "I'm sorry Harry I didn't want to leave but Tonks dragged me away so that we could talk about what happened between you and me in privet. But when we got to Tonks's flat we where attacked by Death Eaters. I was able to stun one and than Lucius hit me with that spell."

"When are you getting out of here?" he asked. "I don't know Harry. Hopefully it will be so because we need to get back to work on our project Merlin knows where behind enough as it is." She told him. Harry frowned how can our love be such a trivial thing to her he wondered. "Is that all this is to you some sort of job for you to get done with and leave when it's all over?" He asked with a hint of anger and hurt in his voice. Her eyes grew wide. "No Harry I didn't mean it to sound like that." she said quickly. "It's just that the wall has ears." She added quietly.

This made Harry feel better but he had to ask. "What about what happened between you and Snape? How dose that affect our Project?" She gasped. "What did you hear?" She asked. Harry sighed. "I heard him say that the only cure to the spell that was used on you was to be kissed by your one true love and that he was one that cured him."

"Well Harry what you need to know about that is..." but she didn't get to finish because Tonks came through the door. She walked over and grabbed Harry. "Time to go to lunch Harry the healers need to see my aunt." She told him and dragged him from the room.

While they where eating lunch Professor Dumbledore came over to them. "This is a portkey that will take you to Harry's room." He handed Tonks a ruler. "It will activate when both you and Harry are touching it."

"Now I suggest that you use it as Narcissa will be allowed to leave shortly." He looked at Harry and said to Harry. "I thought you might want to straiten up your place before she gets there." Harry smiled at him and said. "Yeah that sounds like a good idea." He looked to Tonks and said. "Let's go tell Narcissa the good news."

When they got to her room Harry was surprised to find Professor Snape there but not as surprised as he was at what she said. "I love you to Serv...before she could finish his name he kissed her passionately on the lips. Harry's eyes grew wide and his mouth was gaping open. Only one thought kept running threw his mind. She loved him not me.

Tonks cleared her throat. Snape sprang away from Narcissa and sneered at them while Narcissa's flew wide open. Tonks smirked at them. "Sorry to interrupt you two in such a intimate moment but, we came to inform you Aunt Narcissa that you will be leaving soon."

"Come on Harry we need to get to your place so we can clean it up. We didn't even make the bed when we woke up this morning." She said with a mischievous grin on her face. Harry's eyes went wide at what she said. Tonks embraced him, leaned in and kissed him fully on the lips as the portkey activated.

When they got to his room Harry pushed Tonks away from him and asked. "Why did you do that Tonks?" Not giving her a chance to answer he continued. "Because of you and Snape declaring your undying love for us you two may have destroyed everything that me and Narcissa have been working on." She gave him a confused look and asked. "Why would Snape's love for my aunt and my love for you have any affect on what the two of you are doing?"

Dam it I've said too much thought Harry. "I'm sorry Tonks but I have already told you too much as it is." Her eye's narrowed at him suspiciously. "Your in love with her arrant you?" Harry sighed. "I'm sorry Tonks but I have no answers for you. Would you please leave I want to be alone right now to think."

"All right Harry I will leave you alone." She hugged him and whispered in his ear. "Just remember that I do love you and will always be here for you." She kissed him on the cheek and left.

Harry had tried to leave several times but for some reason he could not leave his room and Hedwig wasn't there so he couldn't owl anyone. He decided to keep his mind occupied during his time isolated from the rest of the world by reading all of his books. He managed to read them over and over until he had just about memorized everything in them.

It was one week before Harry's birthday and he was getting worried he hadn't heard from anyone sense Tonks had left him that day. And he couldn't help but think about the woman he loved and how she was in the arms of another man. It tore him up inside to think about his Narcissa with him. He hated Snape now more than ever.

It was on that day that Harry finally had a visitor it was Dumbledore. "Harry what has happened between you and Narcissa? She has refused to return to your side and she won't tell me why."

"Because of what Tonks said and did in front of her she probably thinks that I'm in love with Tonks. And also from what I heard and scene she and Snape are in love." Harry said dejectedly.

"Harry you know what's at stake if you fail you need to fix your relationship with her. You need to talk to her and...but Harry interrupted.

"And what am I supposed to say to her to win her back? That I love her? That I would do any thing for her? That with out her my life is meaningless? Sure I could tell her all those things but good would that do? She has found her one true love and it's not me its Snape. How can I expect her to love me and not him?" Harry asked him on the verge of tears.

But before Dumbledore could answer any of Harry's questions Narcissa burst into the room and seized into a bone-crushing hug. "Oh Harry you are my one true love not Serverus. It was your kiss that cured me not his. I love you Harry not him." She told him as tears where falling down her face. "And I love you to Narcissa I don't ever want to be apart like that again."
