The Two

Chapter 4

The First of Many Fights

Ron ran over to Harry and Ginny and yanked Ginny off the couch, causing them both to wake up.

"What the hell do you think you were doing with my baby sister?"

"We fell asleep, that's all Ron! Don't jump all over Harry!" Ginny cried.

"No Ginny, it's ok. He can yell at me if he wants to. All it's going to do is waste his bloody time! So go ahead, mate. Yell."

Ron looked shocked. He didn't know exactly what he was expecting from Harry, but that certainly wasn't it. Ron's ears looked like they would shoot steam and his eyes would jump clear out of his head. He yelled, "This is my baby sister. She's too young for a boyfriend and even if she wasn't, you certainly wouldn't be hers."

Ginny yelled at Ron, "Ron! I'm 16! I can take care of myself!"

Ron yelled to Ginny, "You cannot take care of yourself! You're young and vulnerable! You're still a child!"

Ginny yelled at Ron, "You sound like Mum! I am 16! 16! 1-6! 16! 16 years! I'd think after 16 years of life, I'd get some respect! I've had plenty of boyfriends before now!"

Ron yelled at her, "Shut up, Ginny! I'll talk with you later about these "boyfriends" of yours! Right now I'm yelling at my so-called best friend!"

Harry yelled at him, "I am your best friend!"

Ron yelled at Harry, "No you're not! My best friend wouldn't have sex my baby sister!"

Harry yelled back, "I didn't sleep with Ginny! She was upset so I was comforting her! Just because we fell asleep together on the couch doesn't mean anything!"

Ginny yelled at Harry, "Harry! You don't have to lie to Ron! He's just a stupid idiot!" then she yelled at Ron, "We kissed. That's all! Stop jumping down Harry's throat!"

Harry calmed himself down quickly said to Ron, "Bloody hell, Ron. I didn't think you'd be this mad. Are we cool?"

Ron yelled at Harry, "You KISSED her! You actually kissed my sister! How dare you!"

Ginny yelled, "Petrificus Totalus!" and pointed her wand at her brother. The spell hit and him and he fell flat on the ground stiff. Harry and Ginny heard Hermione coming down the stairs. When she saw Ron she said, "Oh my god! What did you do?"

Harry, Hermione and Ginny were seated on the couch in the Common Room a few minutes later. Ron was still lying on the ground behind the couch. Harry and Ginny took turns explaining what happened and why Ginny used the full body-bind spell on Ron. Hermione looked shocked. She asked, "So are you two…going out?" Harry looked at Ginny and she looked at him. She nodded to him and they both said at the same time, "Yes." Hermione squealed with delight as she hugged them both. Hermione still looked pretty and Harry couldn't help having feelings for her. He didn't understand. He loved kissing Ginny. It was indescribable! He could never explain it. He was so confused. Did he still love them both?

Ron came too and few hours later, still fuming. He had 3 hours to think about Harry and his baby sister going out. He was so mad at Harry for trying this on Ginny. She was so young. Then he started thinking. The little voice in his head didn't agree with the rest of him.

"I can't believe Harry is doing this to my baby sister. She's way too young to be doing anything with someone as old as Harry."

"She is 16 you know. Harry's only 17. Ginny is old enough to decide this on her own."

"No! She is way to young to do anything. She's still a kid!"

"Again, she's 16. That's 16 years old. She's old enough. Be happy for them."

"No! I refuse! I won't accept it."

"You might as well give up, idiot. No matter how much you protest it, Harry and Ginny are going to do what they please."

"No! I'm Ginny's older, more experienced brother. I know what's best for her. Harry is bad news."

"Harry is your best friend, stupid! He's never hurt any other girl he's gone out with. Why would he hurt Ginny? He seems to care a lot about her!"

"I don't know! I guess Harry cares about her, but I still won't allow it. Ginny is way too young to be dating."

"Would you shut up and listen to yourself? Ginny is 16. She's old enough to make her own decisions without her pig-headed brother interfering with her happiness! Do you want Ginny to be unhappy?"

"Of course I don't want Ginny to be unhappy. I want her to be happy with someone her own age! I don't want someone as experienced as Harry to be going out with my baby sister. She's too young to have her heart broken like that!"

"You are such a bloody bastard! She's 16. Stop interfering and see what happens."

It was then that Ron realized he was arguing with himself. He knew that little voice in his head was right. She's 16. She can do this. She is old enough. She can take care of herself. It pained him to change his argument, but how can someone argue with something they know is the truth. Ron looked at his watch and saw that dinner was being served. Listening to the angry growls of hunger from his stomach, he went to eat.

Ginny saw Ron enter the Great Hall and she looked at him, uncertain whether she should wave him over or stare at him angrily. She decided to stare angrily at him but he sat down across from them next to Hermione anyway. Hermione looked over Harry's shoulder at the King of Slytherin. Malfoy. Hermione couldn't help thinking that he was incredibly good-looking this year. When his hair wasn't slicked back with way too much hair gel then he was very handsome. She knew he hadn't changed his attitude to the three even though he had helped to kill Voldemort last year, once and for all. Harry had been so proud of himself and he was extremely popular this year because of it. Then she looked at Ron next to her. Ron was in love with her apparently. She had to admit that Ron's body was nicely toned but she didn't know if she liked him in the same way that he liked her. Sure, she had sex with him that afternoon, and it was incredible, but she didn't know if she liked him that much. Ron suddenly said, "Harry, Ginny, I am sorry for my behavior this afternoon. I hope you can accept my apology and accept my feelings and agree not to see each other." He didn't know where that last part came from. He thought to himself, "Oh well, we'll see how they react." Harry chose his words carefully and tried not to yell as he said, "Accept your feelings? What about our feelings? We like each other a lot and we want to see each other so we are. You can't stop us with all of the Ministry of Magic!" "They reacted better than I thought they would." Ron stared at Harry as he put his arm around Ginny. She smiled and Harry looked at Ron with an "I dare you to say anything more" look. Hermione took Ron's arm and hooked it with her own and said, "Let's not get carried away now, Ron." Ron clenched his fists under the table and smiled a very forced smile. Hermione patted him on the back and he gave her an "I'm trying my best" look.

After dinner they all went back to the crowded common room. Harry and Ginny sat close together on the couch and Ron went to bed early. They all understood why. Harry wasn't looking forward to going to the dormitory tonight. After awhile of talking about the day, the news they had received, and what happened afterwards, they noticed it had gotten to be quite late. Harry gave Ginny a passionate kiss good night and they parted at the steps. Hermione and Ginny up one set and Harry up the other. He stared at the stairs beneath his feet and was thinking about Ginny…and Hermione. He thought he had figured this whole thing out. Maybe Sirius's questions to himself aren't as stupid as he had thought. Harry reached the top of the stairs and looked up and was surprised to see Ron standing there. Ron looked really angry but Harry said anyway, "Hey! What's up, mate?" Ron brought up his hand and before Harry could stop him Ron had punched Harry in the jaw. Harry fell down the steps from the unexpected force and reached the bottom unconscious.

Ginny and Hermione were up the stairs and by their trunks getting their pajamas when they heard an odd noise. They grabbed their wands and went down the stairs to see Harry sprawled at the bottom of the steps bleeding onto the carpet. They ran over to him and Ginny got there first. She kneeled down by his side and Hermione kept going up the stairs to find out what had made him go down the stairs. Some more girls and some boys came down the stairs to see what happened. Ginny yelled, "Go find a professor and get Madam Pomfrey!" A girl and a boy dashed out of the common room and were back in a 2 minutes with Professor Flitwick who did a charm to levitate Harry to the Hospital Wing. Ginny went with them and stayed the entire night with him.

Hermione's Venture Up the Stairs

Hermione reached the top of the boy's dormitory and saw Ron getting back into bed, looking angry but ashamed. She screamed, "Ronald Weasly! You hit your best friend! How could you?" She woke up the entire dormitory and all the boys woke up and started asking questions. Hermione said to them, "Go down the stairs and see what Mr. Ronald Weasly here has done to Harry." All the boys in the dormitory except Ron went down the stairs. Ron and Hermione could hear them gasping. Then they heard Ginny yell, "Go find a professor and get Madam Pomfrey!" Ron looked scared. Hermione said again, "How could you?" Ron just answered, "Ginny's too young. He should stay away from her. Serves him right." Hermione stared at him in disbelief and cried, "Serves him right? He loves Ginny. He would never hurt her. And as for Ginny, she loves him. She is 16, Ron. Everybody keeps telling you this but you don't seem to want to listen. Well listen to me! Do one more thing like this to Harry and you won't ever see him or me again." She didn't wait for his response, but turned around and walked back down the stairs to see Ginny walk through the portrait hole with Professor Flitwick and Harry floating by their sides.

The next morning

Harry opened his eyes and he saw a blurred white everywhere. He sat up and the bottom left of his mouth was aching like mad. He reached beside him and found his glasses and put them on. On his bedside table were candies such as Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans, Chocolate Frogs, and Pumpkin Pastries. He looked around him and recognized the Hospital Wing. Madam Pomfrey walked from behind a curtain saying, "That's why we don't practice spells we just learned in the halls. All that hair will fall off with this. Don't use the Werewolf Spell again unless you know how to do it. Oh! Harry! You're awake! Good!" she walked over to him and said, "How is your jaw feeling?" Harry answered, "Lousy. What happened?" She answered with an undecided look on her face, "Someone in the tower hit you and you fell down the Dormitory steps. You've been unconscious for three days, and your jaw is broken. Fixing broken bones can be a nasty business so I didn't want to start until you were awake. If you didn't wake up today, I was going to have to go ahead with the process. Are you ready?" Harry nodded with pain and she gave him a goblet full of blue potion. He took a sip and it tasted like a mixture of raw eggs, maple syrup, and paper. Harry swallowed the rest and wasn't happy about it. About 5 minutes later his jawbone started throbbing and it felt like his bones were moving. He started feeling drowsy and fell back on the pillows and fell asleep despite the awful pain in his jaw.

3 hours later

"Wake up sleepy-head! Wake up Harry!" Ginny leaned won and kissed him on the lips and he awoke with a gasp.

"Ginny? Only your kisses can wake me from a deep sleep!" she kissed him again, but they didn't get too passionate, as his jaw was still a little tender. Madam Pomfrey came into the curtained area and said, "Okay, Mr. Potter. You may go. Be careful from now on." Harry got up and Ginny followed him out. He performed a spell for his gifts to levitate behind them and they walked back to the Gryffindor House.

Harry asked, "Who hit me? That fall jumbled my memory." Ginny looked uncertain as they entered the common room. She finally said, "Well Harry, you see, the person who hit you was…was…Ron." Harry yelled, "What! Ronald Weasly? My so called best friend hit me and could've killed me!" Ginny nodded and looked like she was about to burst into tears. Harry hugged her and she felt much better in his arms. She felt so safe. She broke the moment by saying; "They've suspended Ron for a long time. Nobody knows when he'll be back. Mum's furious. She sent an owl with a Howler from Mum AND Dad. They both are really mad at him for hitting you. But Mum finally agreed to let me move up a year because she found out about you and me and she thought it might be an okay idea. Isn't that part fantastic?" Harry said, "Yeah! It's great! How were your mum and dad about Percy?" Ginny said, "Mum was a bit choked up, but because he wasn't nice to our family, she isn't too upset. Dad hasn't said anything yet. Fred and George are upset because he was our brother but not because he was Percy. Bill and Charlie are coming to The Burrow to spend some time with the family. Mum wouldn't let me come. She said that, "You're in your 7th year now! You need to keep up with your studies!" Harry nodded to show he understood. He was thinking, poor Ginny. Separated from her entire family for who knows how long." He gave her another hug and said to her, "I'm starved. They don't feed you in that Hospital Wing if you're unconscious more than half the time you're there!" He looked at his watch and it was right between lunch and dinner, "Do you want to go get a picnic from Dobby and we can eat it on the grounds and talk?" Ginny smiled and nodded.

Harry and Ginny got a picnic basket from Dobby. They thanked him over and over and he kept saying, "I am happy to do it for Harry Potter and his friends." They walked to the Willow they had kissed under and sat beneath it and ate. They talked about everything that happened since he was hit. From their kiss good night the previous evening, to the kiss that afternoon. They were having a great time when Harry remembered that his best friend had hit him and was suspended for it. He couldn't believe Ron had hit him. It didn't seem right. After they had finished their picnic they went back inside to see Draco Malfoy in the halls, telling everybody about Ron being suspended and Percy being killed. Harry ran over to Malfoy and said, "Shut up, Malfoy. You don't know the first thing about it." He answered simply, "Oh, but I do, Pothead. Your little friend, Weasel, is suspended for hitting you and his dear older brother has been murdered. Always knew their family would run into trouble." Harry was about to say something when Hermione stepped in from behind him. He had no idea where she came from. She went over to Malfoy and slapped him across the face. You could see a red handprint on his face.

"Never talk bad about the Weasly family ever again or I'll resort to some very bad magic."

Malfoy walked off, clutching his face. Harry said to Hermione, "Where'd you come from Hermione?" she answered, "I was just walking and heard what he said so I slapped him. He had it coming." Harry was impressed. Harry, Ginny and Hermione walked back to the common room and talked about how their first few weeks had been going with classes. They told Ginny what to expect in their classes. When dinner came around, none of them felt like eating so they played a game of Exploding Snap. It got to be 10:00 and Ginny and Harry kissed good night. They walked up the stairs and into their separate rooms.
