Chapter 3---Too Much Pressure
Harry said loudly his inside boiling up with hatred, "There's no way I'm going back there!"
"But---"
"I'm not going there?"
"H-Harry…but don't you think we should go back? I mean it'll give us a chance to find out more about this R.A.B. guy…" Hermione said weakly.
Ron was silent listening to both of them.
Harry knew Hermione was right but he didn't want to return to that place. Sirius had always loathed that place and so did he. It was a dark mad house with the footprints of death written all over it. He didn't even want anything to do with the house or Kreacher.
"Think about it Harry," Hermione said in conclusion and dragged Ron out of the room with her.
Harry covered himself with the blanket on the bed trying to calm down the anger that had almost reached the maximum point. He'll just have to visit that horrible place seeing that Hermione was right. Whoever R.A.B was…he was their link to finding one of the missing horcruxes and he couldn't afford to keep wasting time. Who knows what Voldemort will do next now that Dumbledore was gone.
Over the next few days, everyone was preparing for the wedding which seemed to be the only happy thing at the moment. Mrs. Weasley seemed to be shouting at everyone about the decorations and catering. Mr. Weasley spent most of his hours at work as usual same with Fred and George. The trio and Ginny we're the ones who had to do decorating along with some other people that Mr. Weasley had hired to help with the wedding. Bill and Fleur had everything done; the dress, the tuxedo, the rings, and the bouquet.
The wedding was to he held in a church called Evermore in Ottery St. Catchpole, which was located north of the Burrow. It was a big church with glass windows and the walls were painted a light pink for the wedding. Red and white roses decorated the walls here and there. The seats were being polished and were decorated with ribbons.
"RON! There is dirt here! How can you miss this big ugly dirt right here!" Mrs. Weasley shrieked as she entered the church.
Ron muttered something that Harry couldn't make it out and walked over to Mrs. Weasley.
Harry continued polishing the tables making them perfect.
"Where?" Ron's voice said in the distant.
"RIGHT THERE!" Mrs. Weasley yelled.
"I can't even see it!"
"Maybe you need you're eyes checked Ronald! Now…clean that will you and stop playing around!"
"I wasn't even playing around. I w---"
"Just clean it!" Mrs. Weasley said in finale and walked away from Ron.
"Mrs. Weasley is giving Ron a hard time," Hermione said walking over to help hang the ribbons.
Harry laughed, "Yeah."
Maybe it wasn't funny but Harry couldn't help but laugh.
"It's probably the pressure of the wedding," Harry said.
"That's got to be it. It's a great time to have the wedding now. It'll bright everyone up after these couple of days," Hermione smiled.
"I know…" Harry said.
"Harry…aren't you going to talk to Ginny?"
Harry froze. Hearing Ginny's name caused him pain in his stomach and now it was burning with rage of fire.
"You can't avoid each other forever Harry. Ginny's depressed. You're depressed. Why don't you guys just get back together?"
Harry didn't want to talk about this knowing that Hermione was right again. Why does she have to be right about everything? Harry thought angrily. He knew he can't avoid Ginny forever but he wanted to avoid her for now, just until Voldemort was gone.
Not knowing what to say he answered coolly. "Who said I was depressed?"
Hermione raised her eyebrow, "Oh Harry…don't even say that. Everyone knows---"
"Well then maybe everyone needs to mind their own business," Harry shot back angry at Hermione for bringing this up.
Hermione struggled for something to shot back but couldn't find anything to say instead she continued hanging the ribbons.
Harry didn't dare look at Hermione but found his eyes gazing at the red head playing a sweet soft melody on the piano. Her dark red hair was pulled back into a pony tail and her chocolate brown eyes traveled through the keys as her thin fingers ran gently through them. As Harry looked at Ginny…he felt a hunger covered him. He wanted to run up to her and held her in his arms. He wanted to tell her how much he missed her and how much he wanted her. He wanted to look into her eyes and kiss her forever. Hermione was right…
"Harry?"
"Huh?" Harry said as he heard Hermione's voice ringing in his ear.
"I think we should start putting the cloth over the table…" Hermione said.
"Y-yeah…" Harry said grabbing the pink cloth and spreading it over the round table.
"I can't believe my mum! It was only a dot of dirt!" Ron said angrily walking towards Harry and Hermione.
Hermione laughed, "Here Ron, help Harry and I with this."
"Wait till this wedding is over. I'm going to pound that Bill!" Ron said angrily.
"Forget it Ron. After all you're getting a sister-in-law." Hermione said uneasy.
"Whoo hoo," Ron said sarcastically.
And for the rest of the day they continued getting the tables ready and making sure everything was perfect and it was perfect when they locked the church. After dinner Harry and Ron decided to get some rest so they headed off to Ron's room. Harry slept on his bed and he perfectly knew that Ron was awake too. Maybe he should get back with Ginny…he'll be happier that way. But…it's too risky to put Ginny's life in danger all because of him. He wasn't going to take that chance knowing what Voldemort is capable of. At least he'll see Ginny each and every day and that'll satisfy him…
"Harry! Ron! Wake up!" a voice said opening the door in a rush.
It was Hermione. Her hair was messy and her face was filled with excitement.
"What?" Ron asked rubbing his eyes.
"What do you mean 'what'? It's 7…you two need to get up," Hermione said pointing at both Harry and Ron, "The wedding will start soon!"
Author's Note: I think this chapter is kind of short…sorry about that…I'll try to make my chapters longer…and thank you so much to all my reviewers…
Pouringraindrops: We will definitely be seeing more of Luna in the up-coming chapters for 2 reasons…1) seeing that Luna is so much fun to write because I picture her moods changing all the time...2) with Dumbledore gone…Harry can gain some knowledge from Luna seeing that Luna seemed to know a little bit more about the Veil than Harry…
