Chapter1

"Harry!" Turning around Harry saw Hermione walking fast towards him, he sincerely could not remember the last time they had talked and could not see a reason she would want to talk now of all times, in just a few hours the graduation ceremony was to take place and everyone was supposed to be getting ready.

"Yes?"

"When are you going to ask Ginny to get back together? Graduation is in a couple of hours and you haven't even talked to her. Mrs. Weasley wanted us to have a double wedding this summer and that is no possible if you don't get back together soon". Hermione said catching up with him.

He just stood there blinking willing his mind to function. He could not believe what he was hearing. A wedding, they had planned a wedding for him without even asking him if he was ok with it. He was gay for Merlin's sake, there was no way he was marrying Ginny. And just when he was about to open his mouth and just say that someone else came interrupting.

The Weasley's had just arrived and Mrs. Weasley was talking Headmistress McGonagall's ear off. "…And I was wondering if Hogwarts would be available for the double wedding after all what better place for the savior to have his own wedding, it would also give the wizarding world a chance to make new happy memories of Hogwarts". Before McGonagall had a chance to replay Harry interrupted them.

"That won't be necessary Headmistress, for there won't be a wedding. I have no plans to marry Ginny or anyone else for that matter. I also do not appreciate people going behind my back to plan a wedding I have never agreed to with someone who is in a relationship with someone else. After all just yesterday I saw Ginny having a snogging session with McLaggen by the lake".

Mrs. Weasley started sputtering, Ginny turned red with embarrassment and Ron with fury and Mr. Weasley would not meet his eyes. McGonagall on the other hand was furious, she could not believe that they had been using Harry in such a way after all he had done for them. She had had her doubts when she heard of the imminent marriage since like Mr. Potter had just pointed out Ginny appeared to be in a relationship with someone else but she had not guessed that all this planning and advertising had taken place without his knowledge or permission.

"Listen here, you are not going to talk that way about Ginny! It's not her fault you have been dragging your heels and not asked her to be with you only". Ron practically screamed and a crowd had started to form around them.

"No Ron, you are all in the wrong. I had no intention of getting back with Ginny not now, not ever. While she is a pretty enough girl she is not my type and I don't like sloppy seconds". The last was said with a sneer and someone in the crowd snickered, after all it was a well-known fact that Ginny changed boyfriends almost every week and was not the chaste type.

Ron looked so mad he was turning purple and the elder Weasleys where speechless. Just as he opened his mouth McGonagall spoke: "Enough, everyone to your dormitories to get ready the ceremony will be starting soon and it won't be delayed because you did not find the time to get ready". Turning she gave the Weasleys and Hermione a piercing stare. "I am ashamed of you, you were supposed to be his friends but have proven to be nothing but opportunists. I don't want to hear a single word and if someone disrupts the graduation ceremony there will be hell to pay. Leave Mr. Potter alone you have done enough". Everyone moved along and Harry gave her a quiet thanks which she responded with small smile and a nod.

He thanked all deities that all returning seven years had their own rooms so that he had not to put up with anyone trying to talk to him now. He still could not believe they had done that. Apparently almost everyone in school had heard about the wedding and while he had heard some rumors before he had just thought it was typical Hogwarts gossip and paid no attention to it.

Not that it matter now in a few hours he would be leaving England for good to start his world trip. He would be first be going New York to Andromeda's and see how his godson was doing. He would spend some time with them before going on his journey. He already had a list several places he wanted to go, last summer he had gone to France, Greece and Rome. Next he was planning on going to Japan, Egypt, Hawaii and Canada. Thank Merlin for language potions. Each potion would make the drinker fluent in a language in a month, and the knowledge became permanent. At one language per month Harry had already learned nine new languages and planned to learn more along the way.

He was already fluent in Latin, French, Greek, Spanish, Japanese, Arab, Ancient Egyptian, Italian, Mandarin and of course English. He was very proud of himself and after this last revelation eager to cut ties with the wizarding world.
