Betrayals and Secrets
Chapter 11
Relaxation, Interrupted
About three months later found Harry and Draco sitting on the living room couch of Grimmauld Place. Harry's stomach was almost as big as a watermelon. Hermione and Viktor came into the living room and Hermione snickered at the two who were so in love with each other. Sometimes, it was so cute… but sometimes they are quite annoying, calling each other cute names and kissing each other at the most inappropriate times. But, it was just so good for Harry…to be so in love like that. It had been his first real relationship. First there was Cho, and that brought on many tears, mostly from her. Then there was Ginny in his sixth year, but they broke it off because so many terrible things were happening, and neither wanted the other to die because of their stupid mistakes. They weren't really in love…not as much as he and Draco.
Harry was lying on the couch with his head in Draco's lap. Draco himself was stroking his hair gently and watching the telly. Harry was close to falling asleep, when Sirius and Remus came into the room. Sirius grinned at the 'so in love' couple, and Remus only chuckled at his lover's expression.
They were suddenly interrupted by the last of the Weasleys, Ron, Charlie, Percy and their parents. They had come in by apparating. They walked into the living room and almost gasped at the site on the couch. Did we mention that Draco had a protective hand on his love's stomach? Hermione and Viktor were sitting on chairs on either side of the couch and Sirius and Remus were sitting on another couch in the room, which was coincidentally right across from the one Harry and Draco were on. Then, Severus and Lily, who were on the other side of the couch that Remus and Sirius were on, and they were all glaring at the Weasleys, except for Harry who was just about asleep, when Ron inappropriately yelled, causing him to jump out of his skin.
"Oh my bloody god!" Ron exclaimed, pointing a finger at Harry and Draco. The rest of the Weasleys were staring at them with wide eyes, not even realizing that Bill, Ginny and the twins had come in from behind them, their wands at the ready if need be.
"Weasley, bloody hell!" Draco yelled, calming Harry down. "Harry, relax… Weasley, what the hell! What are you doing here, anyway?"
"An Order Meeting," Mr. Weasley replied.
"Didn't Dumbledore tell you?" Sirius glared, taking Harry's shaky hand and clasping his around it tightly. "This house, my house, is no longer in use for Order Meetings. They are in fact, being taken place at Hogwarts in the Headmaster's office. Also, if you DARE to point a finger at my Godson like that again, you're going to be a very, very, sorry family."
Ron only glared at his former best friends. He was shocked to see Viktor Krum standing beside Hermione, though. "What the hell!" he exclaimed again. "Why would you get together with a … mudblood?"
Viktor glared at Ron and was about to take out his wand and hex him, when the Weasleys from behind them all shouted, "STUPEFY!"
Ron fell to the ground, unconscious. Mrs. Weasley screamed and picked her son up gently, turning around to face her disowned children, who had taken on another last name.
"What are you all still doing here? I thought we disowned you all!"
Ginny glared at her 'mother'. "Well, mum, if you must know, I was adopted. As were we all."
"Who would in their right mind adopt you?"
"Well, I'm Ginny Black," she grinned at her mother's shocked and appalled face.
"I'm Bill Lupin."
"We're Fred & George … Potter."
Harry grinned at the Twins mischievous faces and chuckled. They were proud to have names that belonged to a Marauder.
"Look what you've all done to my children!" Mrs. Weasley yelled, pointing a finger at Lily, Harry, Sirius and Remus, who were smirking at her. "Gave them your names, did you? I'll just go to the Minister and have this all sorted out!"
"I wouldn't do that, Molly," Sirius glared. "The Minister, is, how shall we say this? He's out of your reach? Passed on?"
"You mean he's dead?" Mr. Weasley asked, bewildered. "Who killed him?"
"Why are you always suggesting its murder, Weasley?" Sirius asked. "He was old, he was useless… a stupid Minister, if you ask me," Harry snickered, and Sirius' eyes lit up. "It was James Potter who done it, Arthur."
"What?" Mr. Weasley asked. "But he's dead!"
"His ghost still is here, Arthur, and in fact, he's in this very room," Sirius grinned over at Harry. James' soul was still inside Harry's body, and not even Dumbledore could tell how that happened. But James was in fact watching all of this.
After a while of yelling at each other, the Weasleys left, but not without Ron and Charlie making an announcement.
"Okay, we don't care what you think, but Charlie and I are together," Ron stated. Charlie wrapped his arms around Ron's waist, who leaned back into his love's embrace. Mrs. Weasley smiled happily at her so-in-love sons. She knew they were her sons, brothers, but for some reason the thought just didn't seem to mind her.
"Oh, so you disown some of us, not because we're gay but because we're friends with someone who you hate? You don't seem to mind Charlie and Ron's relastionship, 'Mum' but I do have to find out…what do you really think of it?" Ginny Black exclaimed. "Harry is the nicest, most generous person you'll ever meet and now that you've turned you're back on him, you'll never get to make it up to us, or have us back, even if you want." After a few minutes of calming down, she made a conclusion before walking out. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to talk to Cho about something.
Mrs. Weasley's eyes widened. "Cho?" she asked. "Cho Chang?"
"Yes, Mrs. Weasley, Cho Chang," Ginny replied, not calling her mother anymore. She didn't deserve the title she didn't even want Mrs. Molly Weasley as a mother anymore. Even though the Black family has been joining the Dark side, she was glad to have Sirius' last name at least. She was going to take Lupin, but Sirius insisted she take Black.
The twins grinned as they heard her calling their 'mother' Mrs. Weasley. Ginny left the room and the twins and Bill followed shortly after.
Then the remaining Weasleys disappeared.
It was mostly quiet after that.
The next day found only Harry in the living room, all alone. But it wasn't like he didn't care. He was watching the telly, a show called "That '70s Show". The episode was called "Canadian Road Trip". It was obviously on a DVD, something that everyone except Remus and Lily were confused about.
"All right! Canada! Whoo hoo! Beer!" then the air horn went off. That would be Kelso. Harry laughed. He was so stupid it was funny. The reigning king was his title.
"Remember when we decided to put a flaming bag of dog poop on Principle Predwell (not sure)'s door, and you lit it in the car?" Eric
"Yeah, I wanted to see it all flamey."
Eric chuckled. "Okay, you're not going."
Harry laughed and Draco came into the living room, followed later on by Lily. "Oh, Harry, you're not into that show, are you?" Lily sighed exasperatedly. "James couldn't get enough of it. Though Sirius found the whole idea of the DVD Player was silly."
Draco smirked. "Ha."
Lily laughed at sat beside her son, putting her arm around him tightly, resting her hand on his stomach, and rubbing it gently. "How's the baby, and, as I should be saying, how are you?"
"The baby's fine," Harry replied. "I'm fine, too. Dad makes sure of it always. With him around I hardly ever get nightmares."
"That's…wait, didn't you say hardly ever? When do you get nightmares?" Lily asked in concern.
"… It's nothing, forget about it…"
"Harry Potter, tell me right now!" Lily said sternly. A chuckle was heard from all around the room. "James!"
"No need to pressure him, Li, he's fine," James said. "I take care of old Voldie if he manages to come in for a visit."
"You'd do that, wouldn't you, James?" Remus chuckled as he and Sirius came into the room. "Harry, you're into that?" Remus asked as he saw Harry laughing at that 70s show.
"Yes, Dudley was watching it once and I just happened to sneak a few peeks at it and laughed myself silly in the …" Harry stopped dead. Nobody knew that he lived in the cupboard for the most of his life. Well, nobody except for Draco, that is, who was growling in anger. Remus, Lily and Sirius looked at him in confusion. "What's wrong?"
"Dray, no, please don't tell them," Harry pleaded.
"Tell us what… Harry, what are you hiding?"
Harry buried his head into Draco's chest and Lily rubbed his stomach gently. "Don't pressure him!" she scolded the two remaining Marauders. "He'll tell us when he's ready."
"I don't know what I ever saw in you two," a voice said that echoed throughout the whole room. Sirius and Remus' eyes widened.
"Prongs!" they exclaimed.
"Yup," he replied. "Just makin sure everything's okay with m' boy here," James said, and Harry felt a ghostly wind on his head. "Dad!"
James chuckled and then Harry felt the ghostly hands on his stomach. He sighed and leaned in on the couch, his head on Draco's shoulder and sighed heavily. Draco kissed the top of his ear gently. "What's wrong, luv?"
"Just tired, is all," Harry whispered back.
Draco nodded. "Wanna go back to our room, Har?"
Harry nodded sleepily and Draco got up. He put an arm under Harry's neck and one under his legs and picked him up gently. The others including James (who took on a 'visible' form) looked at him oddly.
"He's tired, so we're going up to our room," Draco said. They nodded and with Harry in his arms he carefully took his lover up the stairs to their room and lay him down on the bed gently. He kissed him gently on the lips, seeing as he was fast asleep now, and got into bed beside him. He wasn't tired, but he wanted to be with Harry anyway. So when he got into bed, he enveloped Harry in a hug.
"No one is ever gonna take you away from me…ever again," Draco stated firmly.

Chapter Twelve: Professor Potter and the Lesbians
Preview:
"I'd like to welcome you all back to Hogwarts – and to the first years, I hope you enjoy your many years here," Headmaster Albus Dumbledore smiled wildly at the First Years and the other Hogwarts students. "I have four announcements. Please note that the Forbidden Forest is off limits to all students, and the list of the items not allowed in Hogwarts can be found on the door of our caretaker, Mr. Filch's office. Thirdly, I'd like to announce that we have two…I'm sorry, three new teachers this year. Firstly, Professor Potter, who will be our new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, and Professor Granger as our Muggle Studies teacher, also, Professor Potter, as our History of Magic teacher. But she is going by her maiden name, Evans. So please welcome Professor Potter, Professor Granger and Professor Evans to Hogwarts."
All students clapped and Ginny's hands, if they could, had gotten completely red with all the clapping she was doing. Her best friends – were teaching her! It was going to be a… forgetful experience. She noticed that Harry and Hermione waved to her and she smiled and waved back just as wildly. Colin Creevey was witting next to her, and he was blinking wildly at Professor Evans.
"Ginny, isn't that Harry's mother?" Colin asked.
"Yeah, why?"
"I thought she was dead!"
"Oh, you didn't see it in the Daily Prophet? She's been back for half-a-year now," Ginny explained. "Actually, she was in hiding. She never really was killed by You-Know-Who in Halloween of 1981. She managed to escape with Harry."
"Wow…" Colin said in a daze. She was glad she still had someone familiar, because most of her former friends had betrayed her when she was friends with Harry and girlfriends with Cho Chang. But Colin had accepted her, due to the fact that he was also gay.
"Ginny?"
She turned around and grinned. Cho had graduated a few years ago, but she still came to visit. Ginny threw her arms around Cho, and she smirked and hugged her back just as tightly. "Hey…"
"LESBIANS!" a random Slytherin shouted.
