Chasing Dragonflies

Chapter 5

"She'll come round mate," Ron promised as he sat next to a very miserable Harry, who kept on glaring over at Malfoy, who had a wide smile on his face, even though his house mates from Slytherin didn't talk to him any more, however he seemed happy to be sat with Hermione who was in the same situation.

"Why is she with him?" Harry kept on asking himself, "I mean, i no she has a thing for you, she probably hates me, thinking i stole you away from her or something."

"You didn't steal me," Ron smiled, "I was happy to go with you."

"She wasn't." Harry said, "Maybe, we should put us on hold, i mean she is our best friend."

"What, No!" Ron protested immediately. "I love you Harry, yes, Hermione is well was my best friend, but she's changed, by the looks of it she was with Malfoy far before we were even together, and as for her liking me, i couldn't care less because I'm in love with you, not her, and being with you is more important to me then her friendship." Ron said, wondering if his speech made a difference. "Please don't end it with us."

"I wont, i was just thinking out loud." Harry smiled, "I just, i don't know what to do about her."

"There's nothing you can do." Ron said simply, "We're going home for the Easter holidays, and hopefully when we get back, she would have come to her senses."

"Yeah, I'm going to miss you when you go." Harry said sadly.

"Hold on a minute, what do you mean when i go?"

"Your going to the burrow, I'll obviously have to stay here."

"No you idiot. Your coming home, back to your house, with me." Ron smiled. "Mum said our house is your house, so when ever we have holidays your not even to go back to them, your to come with us,"

"What about the protection thing on the Dursley's?" Harry asked.

"Dumbledore said that he would do a similar one at ours, and mum said she wouldn't let any one hurt you, and neither will I." Ron smiled, Harry cheered up at that news, and smiled brightly.

"So dears, how is school, keeping out of trouble i hope, oh Harry your not eating enough, Ron i told you to watch what he eats, never mind though dear, I'll have you eating double when your here," Mrs Weasley smiled brightly, "Now, go upstairs you'll be sharing with Ron as we have little room, hope that's okay, we'll see about adding an extra room for you now this is your house, i wouldn't want any one having to put up with his snoring."

"Its fine honest Mrs Weasley." Harry said politely.

"Honestly dear, call me Molly," She smiled, "Now go unpack, i will call you when dinner is ready, of you go."

Ron laughed as he walked up the stairs, getting a nudge from Harry. "Your face when she asked you to call her Molly."

"What?" Harry laughed, and sat on the smaller bed that was for him in Ron's cramped bed room.

"Its not fair, I've been begging mum for a bigger room for years, now all of a sudden you get your own room." Ron pretended to pout.

"Little Ron jealous?" Harry winked.

"Since when have i been little?" Ron laughed, and he pushed Harry further onto the bed, kissing him passionately.

"Wait Ron," Harry protested, Ron pulled away, "What about your mum?"

"What about her?" Ron said with a small smile and started kissing Harry's ear lobes.

"She could walk in," Harry said breathlessly, his lower brain hating him for protesting, as it was clear to any one he wanted it.

"She's known for years how I've felt about you." Ron smiled and stopped.

"She knew?" Harry laughed. "Since when?"

"Since the summer after i met you." Ron blushed, Harry pulled him back onto him and started kissing Ron.

"How cute." Harry giggled, and started to explore Ron's body.

"Dinner dears." Molly called up from the stairs, it was just as well that she hadn't come in, as Harry had Ron in his mouth. Reluctantly, Harry stopped and quickly pulled his clothes back on.

"I don't think I'm hungry any more." Harry winked, causing Ron to pounce on him and kissing him roughly.

"More where that came from." Ron promised, "Maybe for desert."

"Shame Hermione couldn't have come back with us." Ginny sighed, "Stupid cow."

"Ginny Molly Weasley!" Mrs Weasley shouted.

"She is though!" Ginny argued, "What does she see in Malfoy?" Mrs Weasley dropped her fork and stared at her children.

"Its true. She's been with him for a while, she's not talking to any one in Gryffindor any more because we all know she's being a toss pot." Ron said.

"But then again no one is talking to Malfoy either." Ginny added.

"Ronald Weasley. Why are you not talking to Hermione! You jealous rat, she's your best friend, just because she got a knew boy friend doesn't mean she doesn't want to be your friend." Mrs Weasley said in anger. "Of course Harry, i don't blame you."

"No Mrs Weasley, its not Ron's fault," Harry said.

"And I'm not fucking jealous!" Ron shouted, and walked of.

"Harry dear," Molly said after dinner, Harry wanted so much to go and see Ron but was called back. "I wanted to make sure you were okay."

"I'm fine." Harry promised. "Me and Ron have tried talking to Hermione, its just she doesn't want to no, she's mad at us as well as us being mad at her."

"Why is she mad at you dear?" Molly asked, and Harry realised he shouldn't have said anything.

"Oh, well, its not my place to say, sorry Mrs Weasley."

"Molly!" She laughed, and let Harry run up the stairs to see Ron.

Harry knocked on the door, and Ron answered it, secretly praying it wasn't his mum. "Is she really mad?"

"No," Harry smiled. "I wanted to come up with you, but she said i should give you some space."

"Its okay, i wanted to be on my own." Ron admitted.

"Do you want me to go?" Harry asked, Ron shook his head, and gestured for Harry to sit down, which he did.

"Its i don't know what's gotten into me, every one thinks I'm jealous of Hermione, when I'm not,"

"I know your not." Harry said, and grabbed his hand and held it tight. "Your worried, i am too."

"I'm scared Harry." Ron said and turned his face away from Harry, so he couldn't see the tears that were falling.

"What why?" Harry asked.

"Once upon a time, we were all close, and now, we're not, we've lost Hermione, and i don't want to lose you too."

"Your not going to lose me," Harry said, "Your stuck with me."

"Why though, you could do so much better then me." Ron said glumly.

"I love you. I don't want any one else, i want you, your my world, my everything, and please stop crying." Harry said as he felt tears in his own eyes threatening to fall. "When i first met you, i admired your confidence the way you just strolled into that carriage and asked so bluntly to sit down, i could never have done that, your brave, braver then me because you don't have to be brave, i am forced to be." Harry said taking a breath, "I couldn't imagine my life with out you, and when we had that fight, i couldn't think of anything to live for, but now i have you, and I'm not forced to be brave any more, i want to be brave, so then i could survive, and spend the rest of my life with you."

Ron turned around and smiled at Harry and pulled him in for a comforting hug. "Harry, i love you."

"Morning boys." Mrs Weasley smiled as the boys walked into the kitchen.

"Mum." Ron said, "I'm sorry about dinner,"

"No worries dear, but you can do the washing up."

"Great." Ron sighed, and Harry sat down and watched his boy friend start washing up.

"So, you boys done all your holiday home work?"

"We were going to start today." Ron lied, he wasn't even sure if he packed it.

"Good." She smiled, "Get it out of the way, and then you can do what you boys do." Harry stared, wondering what she meant by that, the look on Ron's face told him he was doing the same thing.

"Mum, what do you mean by that?" Ron asked.

"Nothing dear." She winked, and went to walk away.

"You know don't you." Ron said, and she nodded. "How long?"

"Since you and Harry arrived." She laughed, "You can't take your eyes of each other." Both boys blushed and avoided eye contact.

"Your okay with it though Mrs Weasley?"

"I'm fine with it, I'm glad some one wanted Ron to be honest."

"Oh well thanks." Ron said, taking offence.

"Not like that dear, some one as good as Harry i mean,"

"That makes me feel a hole lot better." Ron muttered and finished the dishes.

"I've asked Hermione to come down by the way she should be arriving tonight."

"You what?" Ron said in shock. "She's coming, here?"

"Yes, i thought it best we show her she still has friends, and like it or not boys, you will be her friend, despite her new interest, every girl at some point goes for a bad boy."

"Gross." Ron laughed along with Harry. The boys walked back up stairs after promising they would do some home work.

"So, did you ever want a bad boy?" Harry winked.

"I've already got one."

The school corridor was dark, the sun was shining on the grounds but no light was coming through the windows, a girl hurried along, her hair bouncing as she walked, she smiled as she saw a taller boy, who smiled back gracefully, he said something to her which made her blush, and then something that made her shudder. She screamed as he pulled out a knife from his green and black robes, some one else appeared, a boy, some one she was pleased to see, the taller boy aimed the knife at the girl, as the other boy stepped in, she screamed, and watched the other boy run, he had failed his task, and now had to pay for it. The girl cradled the red head in her arms, as she put pressure to be the wound, her hands covered in the dead boys blood.
