1Wow am I a procrastinator or what? Anyway on with the good stuff,

Chapter 5 Surprises

Once the family was in the kitchen Mrs. Weasley started to bark out orders.

"Take Harry's things to Ron's room. You'll bunk with him, again." Mrs. Weasley went into the living room quickly.

"Come on we better get your stuff moved." Ron said as he helped Harry take his stuff up to their room. After they had placed the stuff by Harry's camp bed Ginny came up.

"Harry, can we talk for a minute, please?" Harry nodded. Ron actually caught on.

"Right, so when you're done, mate. I'll be in the living room, waiting to beat you at chess."

"Right." Then Ron left, closing the door. When they heard him walk down the steps Harry spoke.

"So what did you want to talk about?" Ginny walked towards him.

"Oh nothing. I just wanted him out of the way. Particularly so I could do this." Then she put her arms around his neck. He leaned down and she stood on her tip toes. Their lips brushed each others. After a few seconds the kiss deepened. Until they were in a full blown snog-session. Ginny couldn't stand on her feet any longer. Her knees were caving in and she moved so she could sit on his cot. They continued and suddenly Ginny was lying on the bed and Harry was on top of her.

"Whoa." Sirius muttered.

"Who says whoa, anymore?" James laughed.

"Shut up Prongs."

"You don't think they're going to keep going with this?" James asked.

"I hope not." Lily looked a little horrified.

"I'd rather not be discussing this at all." Dumbledore put in.

"I agree with the old man." Sirius added.

"Thank-you Sirius."

"Your welcome. But if we do have to talk about it, I say Go Harry!"

"Sirius!"

"Lily!" Sirius said in a mocking tone.

"Never mind." Lily said frustrated.

Sirius turned his attention back to the screen when suddenly it went black.

"Lily..."

"No, absolutely not. If they are going to do that, then we're certainly not going to watch them." Lily said sternly.

"I agree." James said.

"Me too." Dumbledore.

"Yeah alright, I wasn't too keen on watching them either. I just like giving Lily a hard time." Lily just smiled evilly at him.

So the adults sat in silence for a while trying to wrap their minds around the events going on down on Earth.

"Harry..." Ginny gasped as she broke the kiss a little while later.

"Yeah?" Harry asked gasping for breath.

"We've got to stop, its going too far, too fast." Harry rolled off of Ginny and sat up.

"Yeah, I agree." Harry said. "Not yet."

"I'm glad you agree. Now how about we go downstairs. You promised Ron he could beat you at chess." Ginny stood and straightened her clothing and headed towards the door.

"Haha." Harry followed.

When they got to the living room door it was closed. Ginny took Harry's hand and opened the door.

"Lily, I think you can turn it back on." James said.

"Yeah, probably. If not I'm blaming you." The screen turned back on.

"Surprise!" The room came alive by lots of people jumping out of their hiding spots. All the Weasleys were there, Lupin, Tonks, lots of order members and many of his school friends.

"Happy Birthday, Harry." Ginny smiled. "I was told to go up and stall, while the last of the guests came and hid." she explained.

"She did a little more than stalling." Sirius muttered.

"Sirius!"

"Well its true." he said defensively.

Harry was enjoying his birthday party very much when Lupin came over.

"Hey Remus." Harry smiled.

"Happy Birthday Harry. Listen can we talk?" he asked a little nervously.

"Sure. Does this have something to do with Voldemort?" Harry replied seeing his nervousness.

"No no. Well...see...you're turning seventeen and this might be a little late. I couldn't help but think that no one has probably had the talk with you." Remus turned a little red, as did Harry.

"Yeah, a little late Mooney." Sirius said.

"Ugh, this is going to be a long day." James sighed.

"Well, this isn't exactly the place to talk, but I wanted to ask you something. You haven't er..you know...done anything like that yet, have you?" Remus stuttered.

"Oh if he only knew!" Sirius exclaimed. Lily smacked her head with her palm.

"Umm..." Harry was still getting over the awkwardness so that he could answer the question when Ron came over.

"Hey, mate. Mum wants you over by the cake now." Ron said innocently. Harry had relief on his face and Remus looked a little annoyed.

"Nice timing Ron!" Sirius laughed. This time James smacked his head with his palm. Dumbledore seemed to be staying out of the situation as much as possible.

"Ok." Harry went over to the cake, hoping that Remus didn't take his 'um' as a yes. Little did he know that his parents and other guardians in the watching room thought it was.

After the party was almost over, and people were about to leave, Harry got up enough courage to make a small speech.

"Thank you all for coming to my party. It was very kind. Unfortunately, I have an announcement to make. Dumbledore left me with a mission to fulfill. So after Bill and Fluer's wedding, Ron, Hermione and I are going to be leaving to take care of it. I just wanted to get that off my chest. Thank you." Harry felt a huge weight lift off of his shoulders as he stepped down from the chair he was standing on. But as soon as it had been taken off a new load of guilt laid on him as he heard the sound of shattering plates.

He looked up to the noise and his fear was confirmed, Mrs. Weasley was staring at him with wide eyes filled with fear and a mess of broken plates at her feet.

"No." she said.
