A not so Simple Battle
A not so Simple Battle
Chapter 2 part 2
Harry and Remus looked up in shock and when Harry shifted to see the doorway, Remus fell off Harry. Harry shrieked and scrambled to help Remus up. All the Weasleys and Hermione Granger stood watching them, all happy except for Ginny. In the process of helping Remus off the floor, Harry asked nervously,
"Ummm what are you guys doing here early? You weren't to come for a few more weeks."
"Harry dear it's your birthday, so we came to celebrate it. We can see that you got an early birthday present from dear Remus," Mrs. Weasley said as they all entered the drawing room. As Remus wrapped a possessive arm around Harry, they heard Ron say to Fred and George,
"Ok cough up. I believe the bet was 20 galleons each."
"It was worth watching that first kiss little bro so here you go little brat." Fred winked at Harry and Remus, who blushed. Before they knew it, Remus and Harry were being thrown on a couch together and Mr. and Mrs. Weasley started the interrogations. The adults sat in the armchairs across for them and waited for Harry and Remus to get comfortable next to each other.
"Ok so are we to expect anything to come out of this and not some meaningless fling? We just don't want to see either of you hurt," Mr. Weasley asked. Harry squeezed Remus' hand reassuringly, who replied,
"Defiantly not a meaningless fling. You know I wouldn't hurt Harry like that."
"Ok are you two going to have……?"
"Ummm maybe but not anytime soon. I am not ready for that," Harry interrupted as he blushed deeply.
"THIS RELATIONSHIP IS A JOKE AND YOU KNOW IT!" Ginny called but they ignored her.
"Are you two going to get married?" was Mrs.Weasley's question. Harry and Remus looked at each other before Remus replied,
"Maybe later on but we want to take it slowly at first. You know to build up trust and everything. Do this right so we don't hurt each other."
"Good," Mr. and Mrs.Weasley replied at the same time. Next Ron and Hermione came over and took the spots the Weasley parents just vacated.
"Ok Professor Lupin," Hermione said as she leaned back and crossed her arms and legs, "Lets get one thing straight. If we find out you are using our friend, we will come after you and I promise we know some pretty good hexes now."
"Yeah if I hear you hurt my mate then you will go down," Ron stated as seriously as he could.
"Ok I won't hurt Harry. You guys know that. Plus I really do love your friend," Remus replied as Harry snuggled closely to him. Hermione shocked them with a statement that went,
"And if we find out you are using Harry as just a sex object, we will hunt you down."
" 'Mione don't go there please! I am physically, mentally, and emotionally ready for that yet!" Harry begged as Remus snorted in his butterbeer that Ginny reluctantly brought him. Ron and Hermione left Remus and Harry sitting together in front of the fire. After a few minuets of silence between the two, Ginny came over and gave them a sneer worthy of Draco Malfoy,
"Well Remus, Tonks is here and she wants to talk to you." Remus looked at the doorway and saw Tonks talking quietly with Hermione.
"Be right back," Remus whispered before leaving Harry uncomfortably alone with Ginny. Ginny stared at him and said quietly,
"This is a joke and you know it. You can't possibly be in love with that man!" Before Harry could retort, everyone fell silent to listen to Tonks and Remus having a shouting match out in the hall.
"I LOVE HARRY AND THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT NYMPHADORA TONKS! I HAVE NEVER EVEN BEEN INTRESTED IN YOU AS A GIRLFRIEND CANADATE! YOU ARE LIKE HERMIONE AND GINNY ARE TO HARRY. I LOVE YOU LIKE A SISTER BUT NOT LIKE I LOVE HARRY!"
"IT'S A JOKE AND YOU KNOW IT! YOU'RE JUST USING HARRY AND WILL END UP HURTING HIM! AND I CAN GIVE YOU SO MUCH MORE! I CAN OFFER YOU SO MUCH MORE THAN A 16 YEAR OLD BOY CAN!"
"TONKS FACE IT I CHOSE HARRY! AND IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE IT I CAN PROVE IT TO YOU!"
A few seconds later, Remus came back into the room, closely followed by a pissed off Tonks. Harry could tell that it was taking all of Remus' will power to remain as calm as possible. Harry stood up and met Remus in the middle of the room in a passionate kiss. Harry and Remus melted
When they broke apart, Remus and Harry turned to face a shocked Tonks and a steaming Ginny. Both the girls tore from the room, tears falling thickly falling. Hermione threw both Remus and Harry an apologetic glance before racing after them. Remus pulled Harry towards the door announcing,
"We are going to bed. See you all in the morning." As they walked up the stairs, they heard Mrs.Weasley saying to the others,
"Ok everyone upstairs to bed. Lights out in an hour and I will be checking in on you." When Remus and Harry reached the very top landing in front of both of their rooms, they said a fiery and long good-night. Harry finally drew away, the kiss leaving him breathless and almost begging for more.
"See you in the morning my new found love" Harry reached up and gave Remus another lenghty kiss. They were inturrupted my Mrs.Weasley coming up the stairs.
"Night my Moony" Harry whispered as he slipped across the hall and into his room for the night.
