Chapter 2 Defense

"I can't stand her!!!" Harry hears his girlfriend yell from her room upstairs. Thinking that she was talking about Fleur, he decides to go intervene.

"What did she do, Ginny?"

"She thinks we are sleeping together! Like that would happen!" Ginny answers making Harry feel a little hurt at the fact that she so openly refused to sleep with him. It's not like he wants to, he just doesn't like being told it isn't an option.

"I don't see why she cares I bet she's doing it with Bill" he replies.

"Who are you talking about?" Ginny asks Harry after a moments silence.

"We're not talking about Fleur?"

"No! We're talking about my mum."

"Oh, what makes her think that?" Harry asks.

"I don't know she just started yelling at me for sleeping with you and then I came up here."

"Okay Ginny calm down, I'm going to talk to her right now," Harry said deciding it was best to calm his fiery red head down before she does something everyone will regret. Then he walks down stairs and figures that the kitchen is a good place to look first since his quarry is always cooking. "Mrs. Weasley, can I talk to you?"

Mrs. Weasley looks at Harry with steely eyes as if she could kill him for sleeping with her daughter just by looking at him hard enough. "I guess but it must only be a minute; I still have a ton of food to make."

"Ginny is upset and she said something about you thinking that I was sleeping with her" Harry says in a voice that was and was not a question at the same time.

"Yes I said something to her about it. Why?" Mrs. Weasley asks while maintaining her steely attitude.

"Because we aren't, Ginny and I have never slept together Mrs. Weasley."

"Oh," Mrs. Weasley starts to break down and cry, "Harry I am so happy! I was so afraid that you had stolen my little girl's innocence or she would become pregnant and you would leave her" she is leaning on him and talking into his shoulder now.

"Mrs. Weasley, I would never leaver Ginny and I'm pretty sure neither one of us want to do that until we are married" Harry tells the crying woman.

"You're right Harry, you two are so responsible, I'm being silly, being silly. I should probably go fix myself up now. Can you watch the pot for me, dear?"

"Sure Mrs. Weasley", with that she goes upstairs and to make herself look more presentable. Five minutes later, she comes back downstairs, "Mrs. Weasley I'm going to go talk to Ginny now," Harry tells her.

"Okay dear."

Harry goes upstairs and tells Ginny that he has cleared everything up between the three of them and that she should finish getting ready for the wedding since it starts in twenty minutes, then leaves so she could change into her dress robes.

It is then that Harry realized that he hasn't changed either and walks up to the room he shares with Ron. Not to his surprise, his best friend is already in there trying to find his dress robes. "Your mum hung them up Ron," Harry says without even being told what Ron was looking for.

Ron walks over to the wardrobe and opened it. Sure enough, there are his dress robes waiting for him to find them. Ron picks them up and put them on. Meanwhile, Harry pulls his out of his trunk and changed into his robes.

"I thought you'd be up here earlier, what happened?" Ron asks as he examined himself in the mirror.

"Your mum upset Ginny and I had to take care of it because neither one of them wanted to talk to the other," Harry answers.

"What did Mum do? It must be bad if Ginny refuses to talk to her."

"She thought we were sleeping together and told that to Ginny."

Ron stares at Harry with his shoe half on for about five minutes. Harry decides it is best not to break the silence, then he can't take it anymore. "We never did that Ron, it was all in her head," Harry says.

"Oh—well—okay then" Ron says while finally allowing himself to breath again.

"We should probably go downstairs and get the girls Ron, the wedding is about to start," Harry says breaking another silence.
