BoredKing : Good point.
Saggitar : Well it's a matter of perspective, isn't it? Things that Harry has done (in the past and future) will be seen as either horrible or good for the world depending on your opinion.
DemonBry : I do.
Chapter 22 -
"Harry." Isabella's voice called from outside, as she lightly knocked on the door.
"Come in." Harry called, a second later Isabella walked into the room. She saw Harry sitting behind Lucius's desk, even though it was really Harry's desk now. Just like how this was Harry's house now, and how pretty much everything Lucius had belonged to Harry. Isabella almost felt sorry for the blonde prat...almost.
"Harry," She said with a smile. "can I have a whip please?" She asked, her eyes wide and hopeful. "My other one is being cleaned by Dobby." She added in the form of an explanation. "I told him that it was fine but he insisted that such an unclean whip was not good enough for a lady like me."
"I'll make a mental note to reward Dobby, now forgive the stupid question but what do you need a whip for?" Harry calmly asked while raising an eyebrow.
"Oh, I'm going to whip Lucius." She shrugged.
"What did he do this time?" Harry asked as he casually waved his hand and a whip formed in the air and landed in Isabella's hands.
"Oh, he didn't do anything." Isabella admitted as she caught the whip. "Well...he didn't do anything this time at least...I think." She said as she examined the whip.
"In that case, might I ask why you plan to whip him?" Harry asked in an amused voice.
"Well...I have a good reason for it."
"I am sure you do, could you perhaps tell me that reason?" Harry asked.
"Well...I just think it's good to take some time out to remind him that he's scum, you know? So he doesn't forget."
"Fair enough," Harry nodded almost instantly. "have fun." Harry added with a small smile.
"I will." Isabella said as she returned the smile before she walked out of the room.
"Quick question," Andromeda spoke as her head came out from under the desk. "did you really just give her - my niece and a nearly thirteen year old girl - a whip just so she could repeatedly whip her father?" She asked with a hint of disbelief.
"Yeah." Harry shrugged. "It's Lucius, I'm not going to lose any sleep over it." He added when she continued to stare at him.
"Oh, come on Andi," Bellatrix sighed just as her head popped out next to Andromeda's. "the prat does deserve it." She said
"Also Isabella is very much right," Narcissa said, her head popping up on the other side. "Lucius will need his reminders, Merlin knows that he can't even get hard without being told to do so." She said with a roll of her eyes.
"You poor thing." Andromeda suddenly frowned as she looked at Narcissa. "I curse the day that you were forced to marry that blonde prat."
"Not to worry, Isabella is making him suffer plenty enough for both of us and our lord is more than making up for the suffering I have had to endure." Narcissa grinned seductively at Harry.
"Oh, that he is." Bellatrix purred as she licked her lips while her hands reached for Harry's belt buckle only to be slapped away by Andromeda.
"Ahem," Andromeda looked at her with narrowed eyes. "need I remind you whose turn it is?" She said in a low voice.
"Oh, sorry." Bellatrix said with a sheepish look, Andromeda did a sigh-eyeroll-headshake combo before she reached over and began unbuckling Harry's belt.
"You never were good at sharing." Narcissa said with a shake of her head.
"Hey, don't start without me!" Tonks said as she rushed into the room.
Isabella was walking to Harry's room like a woman on a mission, today had been her birthday and it was without doubt the best birthday she had ever had, she had actually gotten a lot of presents and got to spend time with all of her friends and family but there was one thing she wanted to make it the perfect birthday.
She opened his bedroom door only to come face to face with Harry himself.
"Let me guess, you're here for your birthday present?" Harry asked with a knowing voice and a small grin. Isabella blinked before she shook her head and began composing herself.
"Yes I am," She said in a firm voice as she crossed her arms. "you said that it could happen once I am thirteen, and guess what, I am thirteen now. I am old enough, I want it and I know you want it." She finished, looking him in his annoyingly beautiful green eyes. Isabella suspected that Harry's mother could have probably been able to make Harry's father into her personal slave if she used those eyes properly.
"I did say that I would give you a 'personal present' on your birthday." Harry nodded. "Well, if you want it then come in, lock that door, then come and get it." Harry said as he took a step back and held his arms out. Isabella grinned before she quickly came in and locked the door, she quickly smashed her lips against Harry's as she began pushing him towards the bed, intent on getting the best birthday present that a girl could get.
A few weeks later another celebration in an entirely different location occurred.
"Happy birthday, Ginny!" Molly Weasley said as she and the Weasley family sat at the family dinner table, well...most of the family. The eldest brothers, Bill and Charlie, were still out of the country but had made sure to send presents.
"Thanks Mum." Ginny smiled brightly as she looked at her cake and all of the presents that she got, though her smile diminished ever so slightly when she noticed that there wasn't a present from the one person she most wanted to receive one from.
"You're welcome dear," Mrs Weasley smiled. "I..." She found herself cut off by a knock on the door. "...oh, I wonder who that can be." She frowned and walked over to the door, wondering who could possibly be here now, she opened it and blinked in surprise as she saw who it was.
"Ah, hello Mrs Weasley." Harry smiled at her, she couldn't help but noticed the gift wrapped box he was holding in his hand.
"Harry dear, it's nice to see you." She smiled as she stepped aside and gestured him in.
"Thank you, Mrs Weasley." Harry smiled as he entered.
"What are you doing here?!" Ron demanded as he stood up.
"I'm only here to drop off a present for the birthday girl," Harry said as he walked up to Ginny who stood up to greet him. "happy birthday." Harry said as he kissed her cheek and handed her the present.
"Thank you, Harry!" She smiled brightly and kissed his cheek in thanks before she opened the present. "Oh they're beautiful!" She exclaimed when she found a matching set of earrings, wrist bracelets and a necklace.
"My, my, these look expensive." Mr Weasley noted while the other Weasley's were staring at the presents with dropped jaws.
"Well, it's not like you really have to pay me back for them." Harry shrugged. "They are gifts after all. Anyway, I am very glad you like my present Ginny, I...I suppose I should be off now."
"Nonsense," Mrs Weasley quickly said as she waved a hand. "come and sit down dear, enjoy the party."
"Are you sure? I...I don't wish to intrude and this seems like a family affair." Harry replied in a unsure voice, one which Mrs Weasley easily brought as real.
"Well, it is Ginny's party and I highly doubt that she is going to complain." Mrs Weasley replied.
"I don't want him here!" Ron protested loudly before anyone could say anything.
"Well it's not your birthday, is it?!" Ginny snapped at him. "So sit down up, stop eyeing my cake and my presents and shut up!" She ordered, narrowing her eyes.
"I'd listen to her." The twins said at the same time as they grabbed Ron by the shoulders and forced him to sit down, Ron looked like he was going to protest more but the warning look from his parents and the glares from his sister and brothers kept him from doing so.
"Yes, come and stay." Ginny said as she guided him into a seat.
"Okay," Harry said as he sat down. "I suppose I could spare a few hours but I really do need to go later."
"Oh, do you have somewhere to be?" Arthur asked.
"Yes, I am meeting a friend of mine later." Harry nodded before turning to Percy. "Oh and Percy, congratulations." Harry said.
"Congratulations? What for?" Percy asked.
"For becoming head boy this year." Harry said as if it was obvious.
"How did you know?" Percy blinked.
"Who else would it be?" Harry said as he rolled his eyes, causing Percy to blush.
Harry had spent another hour at the Weasley family home, discussing the ministry with Mr Weasley, cooking with Mrs Weasley, school with Percy and pranks with the twins while also spending time talking to Ginny in-between. Ron spent the entire time sat at the table with crossed arms and a scowl on his face as he looked at Harry.
"Alright, this has been lovely but I have to go now." Harry said as he stood up. "Mrs Weasley, the food was excellent, I am very surprised that you have not been making a career in the food industry."
"Oh stop it," Mrs Weasley blushed as she waved him off. "you'll have me redder than flames if you keep complimenting me like that. I will make sure to send some food to you, I can have Ginny give it to you when you meet up at the station for school."
"That would be lovely." Harry smiled.
"Harry, I'll walk you out." Ginny said as she stood up.
"Mother magic must be happy with me if she has provided me with such a beautiful escort." Harry said as he held an arm out for her. To Ginny's credit she only blushed slightly before she grabbed onto his arm and guided him out of the house.
"I think our little Gin-Gin is falling in love, wouldn't you say so George?" Fred said to his twin.
"I would indeed, brother. We might have to start calling her Mrs Potter." George added with a grin.
"Oh, wouldn't that be so lovely?" Mrs Weasley sighed happily as she smiled brightly at the thought of her little Ginny getting married to Harry Potter.
"You want Harry to marry Ginny?! But I don't even like him!" Ron protested.
"You're outvoted since most of the family does." Percy replied. "It may surprise you but not all of the world revolves around you."
"Shut it, Percy." Ron scowled at him, he looked to his other family members for support but saw none, he didn't even get any from the twins and those two loved to tease Percy. Ron growled before he stormed out and went up to his room.
"Sometimes I can't help but worry about him." Mrs Weasley sighed.
"Well, us too, though we mostly wonder..." Fred began.
"How many times you dropped him on his head when he was younger." George continued. "Because you see I think it was at least five small drops."
"Ah, but I think it could have been just one or two big drops." Fred said before turning to Percy. "What about you Percy?" He asked.
"Yeah, how many times do you think Ron was dropped on his head?" George asked.
"..."
"..."
"..."
"..."
"...I would guess one big one and one or two small ones." Percy eventually replied.
"Oh stop it," Mrs Weasley admonished them. "your father and I have never dropped Ronald on his head, despite what you may believe." She said, not noticing the small shift from Arthur.
"Thank you for coming, Harry." Ginny smiled as she walked him away from her house. "It means a lot."
"I am glad that you appreciate my presence," Harry grinned at her. "I assure you that I enjoy your company just as much."
"Thank you," She said, blushing slightly. "and thank you for the presents as well, where did you buy them from?" She asked.
"I didn't." Harry replied.
"What do you mean?" She blinked.
"I didn't buy them," Harry responded. "I made them."
"You made them?" She dumbly repeated.
"Yeah, if you don't like them then I can make you a different set or actually buy you a set." Harry offered.
"No!" Ginny said quickly. "No...I...I mean you don't have to do that for me, the set you gave is perfect enough."
"If you're sure." Harry smiled.
"I am," She smiled back. "you know my parents are more than likely planning our wedding?" She said in a jokey tone.
"You might want to head back in and give your mother some opinions before she decides it all then." Harry replied as they stopped just outside of the burrow wards. "I'll be off now, goodbye Ginny." Harry said as he leaned down and planted a quick kiss on her lips before he disappeared.
"Wow..." Ginny breathed as she walked back to the burrow, her legs seemed to be working on their own as she wasn't even really thinking about anything but the kiss she had just gotten. "...best birthday ever." She grinned.
Harry walked into the room, it was as big as the great hall in Hogwarts, the large windows around the room showed the beautiful night sky. On the opposite end of the room was two thrones, in one of them was an attractive looking woman who looked no older than twenty four. Her beauty seemed otherworldly as she sat on the throne with her beautiful and pale legs crossed. She was wearing a dark red, sleeveless dress that was held up by two very thin straps, she also had silver high heels that helped draw attention to those beautiful legs, that's not to say the rest of her body wasn't brilliant. She had pale blue eyes and lovely blonde hair in a pony tail.
Unfortunately, she wasn't the one who Harry came here to meet. No, that was the person who was sat next to her. Broad shoulders, dressed in a black suit with a white shirt and black cloak, raven colored black hair and pale blue eyes.
"You wished to talk to me?" The man asked.
"Indeed I did, Count Dracula." Harry nodded.
A.N: Wow, that took me so long. Hi guys, hope you liked the chapter. I am sorry that it's taken so long for me to get this chapter out but I've been busy with stuff in my actual life and have been focusing on other stories. This chapter was supposed to come out a few weeks ago but it just took me much longer to make it than I would have liked. Sorry about that. Thanks for reading, feel free to leave a review.
