A Little Lost
Chapter 15
You don't love me!
Harry sat at the kitchen table of Grimmauld Place, Hermione and Ginny, on either side of him, were whispering sweet nothings into his ear. Hermione's left arm was wrapped around his waist and his head was resting on Ginny's shoulder. Ron Weasley sat across from them with his head bowed and a hand fiddling with a loose strand on his Weasley jumper. Three unopened letters lay on the table, each one address to a one of the trio – OWL results, Hermione had pondered. But at the moment they lay forgotten as the group tried to comfort Harry – the group did not yet know the reason of his misery.
"Harry mate," Ron piped up, lifting his head to stare at his friend "Is it something to do with Sirius?"
At this Harry buried his face even more so into Ginny's shoulder.
"Oh, Harry," Hermione sighed, "Tell us."
"Please?" Ginny asked, raising her hand and softly gliding her hands threw Harry's hair.
Harry groaned slightly and shifted "Dun wanna."
Hermione let out an annoyed sigh "Harry!" she complained "tell us now!"
Harry lifted his head slightly do he could peer at Hermione.
"He doesn't love me" Harry whispered
"What?" Ron asked leaning forward in his chair
"He doesn't love me"
Ginny and Hermione exchanged a look "Did he tell you this?" she asked
Harry shook his head
"Then how do you know if he loves you or not?"
"He hasn't said it, and I tell him all the time, he usually just shrugs it off."
Ron sighed "Harry, mate, just because he hasn't said it doesn't mean he doesn't love you!"
"Harry, you have only been dating for a month, you really can't expect him to say 'I love you' after a month…." Ginny whispered into Harry's ear, loud enough for the others to hear
"I guess" Harry softly agreed.
"Can we open our OWL results now?" Ron asked, grabbing his and staring at it in intrigue.
"Have some bloody compassion, Ronald!"
"What?" Ron asked innocently, and threw Harry's letter to him.
"C'mon mate, open the letter, bet you a knut you beat me at everything."
Harry looked up and made a grab for his letter. He stared at it intensely before ripping it open and scanning over the letter.
"Look at that" Ron mumbled, "got more OWLs then Fred and George put together" Ron looked up at Hermione "What you get 'Mione?"
Hermione looked up at Ron "EE in Transfiguration and Defence, O in everything else"
"Oh My Goodness, you nerd!"
"Shut up, Ronald!"
Ron smiled and turned to Harry. "What you get?"
"Mmm….O in Defence, EE in Transfiguration, Herbology and Potions, Charms, A in Astronomy, and history of magic….P in Divination…but we all knew that was going to happen-"
"Told you that you were going to beat me!" Ron cut in.
"It wasn't that hard."
Ron laughed, "Right, I seem to remember you cramming at the last second!"
Harry smiled at Ron.
Ron looked at Hermione, "See Hermione, I can make him happy, he doesn't need all that emotional crap…he's not that lost…yet."
"HEY!" Harry shouted
Harry looked up as Sirius and Remus entered the kitchen, and he quickly replaced his joyous face with one of mild disappointment, he gave the others in the room a look to silence them and nudged his head in Sirius direction, a wicked smile on his face.
Remus scanned the group with curiosity; he rested his eyes on Hermione and gave her a small secret smile before he walked over to the counter to boil the kettle. Sirius looked at Harry, before eying the off-white envelope in his hand. He quirked an eyebrow before joining Remus at the kettle.
"Siri" Harry asked, trying hard to add nervousness into his tone
"Yes Harry" Sirius answered after he turned to face Harry
"What OWL results are you accepting?"
Sirius quirked his eyebrow "Exceeds Expectations and above, why?"
Ron and Hermione looked at Harry finally realising what Harry was doing, and both tried their hardest not to smile. Harry, however, masked a smile with a cough, glanced up at Sirius while worrying his lip.
Sirius looks cautiously at Harry as he began to shift uncomfortable in his seat "Harry?" Harry glanced up at Sirius with sad eyes "Are you trying to tell me you got below Exceeds Expectations?" he whispered in disappointment
Remus turned around from stirring his and Sirius coffee to stare at Harry, Remus knew that something was up, he after all had taught Harry in defence two years ago, and back then Harry was the top of his class. Remus swivelled his gaze to Hermione, who gave him a sly smile and mouthed 'prank', relief washed over him and smiled at Harry.
"Kinda" Harry answered Sirius
"You have got to be kidding Harry" Sirius groans and seems to deflate
"No kidding" Harry glumly replies, bowing his head so to hide his smile from Sirius
Sirius groans and looks at Remus for help, who smiles softly and takes a sip of his tea.
"But you're…." Sirius begins, but immediately knows has said the wrong thing and looks away
Harry snaps his head up and glares at his boyfriend "I'm what?" he asks venom lining his tone.
"What were you going to say?" Harry yelled
Everyone around them shift uncomfortably and Remus slowly edged out of the room.
"Nothing" Sirius squeaked as he tried to follow Remus out of the room
"Fuck off Sirius, you were going to say but 'your Harry potter'!"
Sirius shakes his head rapidly in denial "No"
Harry stood and shot a hurt look at Sirius before muttering "you don't love me and you only think of me as Harry Potter, well fuck you Sirius Black!"
