Stay

"Harry" I said to my best friend as soon as I spotted him in the common room, he looked like hell, "hey whats wrong, mate?"

He glanced up at me then looked back at the ground "nothing"

If you say so "hey I need to borrow your invisibility cloak"

"Why?"

"Stella's staying in my bed tonight"

He gave at me a questionable look "are you to going to…ya know"

I shrugged "probably not, you know if I do Ginny will be able too and I can't deal with wondering if she is or isn't. The fact that she is dating that git Blaise is the only thing stopping me. So what about that cloak?" I asked.

Why is it taking him so long to answer its usually yes in a heartbeat?

"Well…I don't know Ron. It's just-"

"Its what… I mean in the past you'd let me? Whats the big deal now"

He sighed, "Okay fine," he answered in an exasperated tone, "you know where it is"

What is Harry's problem he's been acting more and more depressed everyday.

I put my hand on his shoulder "you need yourself a girl mate."

I then took off towards the seventh year dormitory and got the cloak sprinted back outside the common room and around the corner where Stella was.

But I stopped abruptly when I heard her arguing with someone.

"What are you doing?" asked a male voice.

"I told you the fact that she doesn't like you now isn't my fault and there's nothing I can do about it"

"But she never wanted me. She wanted Blaise the whole time."

Wait are they talking about Ginny?

"Get a grip you're acting like a loser.Listen to me Stuart, do you like this girl?"

"Yeah"

"Yeah, and is she worth all this trouble?"

"Well, I thought she was, but you know."

"Well, she is or she isn't. See first of all, Blaise is not half the man you are. Secondly, don't let anyone ever make you feel like you don't deserve what you want. Now if you would please leave I'm waiting for someone."

"Who?"

"That's none of your business little brother, shoo, and don't hide. You know I'll know you're there."

I heard the other person sigh, and walk in the opposite direction. I didn't want Stella to know I had been listening so I stayed for a little bit, trying to sort through my thoughts.

Then Stella came around the corner eyeing me with suspicion "were you spying on me and my brother?" she asked.

Oh shit, I'm in trouble.

"I...I didn't mean to. It just sort of happened and then when I heard about you talking with Blaise I got sort of worried." I said very quickly. I bent my head down "sorry"

To my surprise, she smiled "it's okay. I was actually going to ask you if you could help break up Blaise and your sister"

"I can't do that Ginny would hate me"

"Hear me out Ron, you hate Blaise, you want to know your sister is safe when your not around, and trust me my brother is a complete gentleman. He'll treat your sister with the up most respect"

"but what was all that nonsense about trouble he went through"

Stella looked shocked for a moment and then it dawned on me.

"you used me" I yelled "you used me to get my sister to date someone didn't you?"

I can't believe this shit. "Ron if you would just listen to me before you get even angrier"

"Why so you can lie to me some more?"

"No, dammit Ron just listen" something pushed me into a wall "about a week ago my brother had asked your sister out and she told him no because the charm your mother had placed on you two. They then decided to think of someone for you to date but your sister kept saying no because she thought you were still in love with Hermione. Then my brother brought up me, he said I would be your type. And at first I said no because it was only for their personal gain but to tell you the truth the more I got to know about you the more I found out how much more I do like you." She started to cry "Ron I'm sorry I never meant for it to turn out this way"

"Why because you got caught?" I snapped at her instantly regretting it.

Stella looked at me shocked at what I had just said, to tell you the truth I was a little shocked too.

"I'm just going to go back to my dorm," she said as she wiped away some tears and walked past me.

Merlin why do I have to be such an arsehole, I didn't want to make her cry.

I ran after her "look I'm sorry, I over reacted. And you are right I would love to break up Blaise and my sister, but how?"

She smiled and turned to face me "we'll work something out"

"Do you still want to come back to my room?"

Please please please.

She grabbed my hand "okay"

I put the cloak over her and went back to the common room "muitnep" the fat lady's portrait swung open and we step in the common room.

Ginny and Hermione were over by the fireplace whispering excitedly, Seamus and Dean was finishing up some school work, and a few students had decided to play exploding snap.

I led her up to the boy's dormitory, when someone called my name. I turned around and saw Hermione.

She ran up towards me "hey Ron, where have you been I've wanted to talk to you"

"Well I've been with Stella" Hermione scoffed "but I'm really tired now so can we talk later"

She nodded "yeah sure no problem, have a nice night Ron"

Then she leaned up and kissed me lightly on the lips.

I stared at her retreating form, then I felt Stella nudge me in the side.

"Come on" she whispered.

We walked into the seventh year dorm, where Neville and Harry were the only ones sleeping.

I lead Stella to my bed drew back the curtains, then she climbed on top of the bed and I went back to my trunk to get her a t-shirt. I came inside the curtains and saw Stella with only her skirt and bra on,

"Sorry" I whispered as I handed her the shirt.

I was glad it was dark, first Stella couldn't see me ogling at her body and secondly I was sure my face looked like my hair.

She took the shirt and put it on, then took off her skirt and put her clothes at the end of the bed. I sat on the bed, closed the curtains and said a silencing spell.

Maybe I might not get lucky but just used it as a precaution.

"Are you going to sleep in you robes?" she said as she pointed at me

"No… I…. uh" I stammered. Stella came towards me and unclasped my robe, then proceeded to unbutton my shirt as I pulled of my pants.

I put my clothes at the end of the bed next to hers.

"That's better," she said as she sat on my lap and started kissing me.

Man, I love kissing her, Stella has the best lips for kissing they are soft and heart shaped.

I wrapped my arms around her waist and pulled her closer. My hands found their way to her bra and I unclasped it.

She pulled away, and she was breathing heavily "I really love kissing you but we should go to sleep before this leads up to something we're both not ready for"

I nodded trying to breathe normally and removed my hand and her bra, "I believe this is yours" I waved her bra and her face and she snatched it out of my hand.

"Thank you"

We lay down and snuggled in each other's arms, as I wrapped my arm around her waist and entwined my fingers in hers.

As I drifted off to sleep I knew that I would kill anyone who tried to take Stella away from me.
