Marriage Bliss?

A/N Here is the next chapter. I hope you all like it. Well on with the story.

Chapter 6

Ron Weasley's blue eyes widen before narrowing as he read that morning's copy of the Daily Prophet. He just couldn't believe what he was reading.

He's best mate was engaged to their girt of an old professor, Snape. Ron just couldn't wrap his mind around the idea.

"It has to be trick." Ron said later that morning to he's own fiancée, Hermione Granger. She had been spending the summer with the Weasleys and helping Molly plan for their own wedding.

With Bill married to Fleur and Charlie engaged to a girl he meet in Romania there were only three kids left for the Weasleys to marry.

Molly wasn't sure who to marry the twins off to. She wanted to find good matches for the twins and would not just marry then off to anyone to follow the law. She wanted them happy.

Now with the news of Harry engaged she had to find someone for Ginny. That was going to be the hardest seeing as how Ginny wanted to marry Harry. No one would come close to the boy-who-lived.

Hermione was sitting next to Ron in the living room on the couch. She had read the paper and wasn't sure how she felt about it. "I'm sure there is more this then wants in the papers. We should hear what Harry has to about it." She said to Ron.

"It better be a damn good reason." Ron said as he crossed his arms. They both looked when the fireplace came to life with green flames. A second later Harry came stumbling out. He could never get the hang of that was grateful for Fred catching him.

Harry then stood up as he looked around to see the family all in the living room. All but the oldest two. This caused Harry to become a little embarrassed.

"I know you all read this morning's copy of the Prophet." He said in a way of saying hi. "That's why I came over to explain things." Harry said as he looked at everyone there.

The twins were just grinning at him as if happy for him. Harry knew that they would stay by his side no matter what. Nothing to make them turn there back on one they saw as little brother and their silent partner to their shop.

Both Molly and Arthur seem confused by this. After all they thought he would marry their daughter. Molly also looked hurt by this.

Ginny looked completely heart broken and one could tell she had been crying. Harry did feel bad that he was causing her to feel this way but at the same time there was nothing he could do for her. He just didn't love her in that way and only saw her as a sister.

Harry then looked to were Ron and Hermione were sitting. He was scared with how those two would take the news. He knew Ron would be mad and blow up at him. Harry just wasn't sure how Hermione would act. She would be curious but might stick to Harry's side. Might being the key word.

"What's going on? Did Snape put you under a spell or use a potion on you?" were the first words out of Ron's mouth.

Harry let out a sigh as he shook his head no. "No Ron. Severus didn't do anything to me."

"Severus? You're calling him by his first name?" Ron asked shocked at what he was hearing.

"We are going to be married might as well get use to calling him that." Harry said with a shrug.

Ron watched him as Harry moved further into the room and took a sit in one of the chairs. One could tell that Harry was uncomfortable about all this.

"If Snape didn't do anything to you then why are you planning on to marry him? What did offer to get you to say yes to him?" Ron demanded to know.

"He didn't offer me anything." Harry said softly but they all heard him anyways.

It was Hermione who picked up on what Harry was trying to say. "You did."

"He did what?" Ron asked confused to what Hermione meant.

"He asked for Snape's hand." She said as she watched their friend. Her brown eyes were watching his body language but they were still full of confusion. She was still trying to figure out why Harry would want the potion professor and what he would have offer to get the man to say yes.

"What?" Ron yelled as he turned his eyes to Harry. "Why would you want that greasy bat when you could have Ginny? We all know she loves you!"

Harry didn't say anything at first. He bit his bottom lip as he tries to find the words to describe how he felt about all this. He let it go as he took a deep breath before he spoke.

"Because I want to marry him. I don't love your sister in the same way. I only see her as a sister like I see Hermione. I could never marry her knowing that I could never lover like that. Besides its not just seeing her like a sister I am also gay." He said.

Everyone's eyes went wide at the gay part. Ron also paled a bit at it. Ron was one of the few in their world who was prejudice against gays. He found them to be sick and wrong. Because of how he felt he got up and left the room.

Harry did feel hurt to see he's best friend walk out of the room. He thought Ron would blow up at him not walk out of the room.

Harry then looked at the others. They all seem shocked at the news while the twins still looked happy at him.

"We're happy for ya." Fred said. "Because you see…" George then added. "We're gay as well." the finished at the same time.

Molly just sighed at hearing this news. Now she had to look for two males for her twins. That was going to make it harder on her.

Harry just smiled at them but then blinked when hear heard Ginny speak. "So is it just because I'm a girl?" she asked softly. "Because if that's the case then…."she trailed off. Everyone knowing what she was hinting at. She would let Harry have gay lovers on the side if they were to marry.

"No!" Harry yelled as he looked at her with narrowed eyes. "I would never do that to anyone I married. I can't believe you would even think I would do that." He said. He felt like the girl didn't even know him if she would suggest something like that.

Harry then sighed before he went on. "It's not only that I'm gay but I have strong feelings for him. I'm not saying it love but I know that if I must marry then I want it to be with Severus."

"Well no matter who it is, we'll be there at your wedding." Arthur said with a smile on his face. At lest he was smiling until his wife spoke up.

"No we won't." Molly said. She finally was showing how she truly felt about the matter. "He lied to us." She said as she stood there with her hands on her hips glaring at the boy.

"I what?" Harry asked as he stood up and looked at the woman he saw as a mother. "I never lied! I never said I would marry Ginny!"

"You also never said you wouldn't. You let us believe you would marry her one day. You let lead Ginny on and you know it!" Molly said as she glared at the one she use to see as her son. "You should have said something sooner!"

Harry had wide eyes at being yelled at by the woman before he felt back into his chair and dropped his head. He knew she was right but at the same time he hoped that Molly would have understood him.

"Your right. I should have let you know the moment I realized I was gay. Specifically Ginny." Harry said softly. He's words were heavy with the guilt he felt at the moment. He's head then snapped up when Hermione spoke up again.

"That maybe true but we all must take into count that Harry grew up in the muggle world." Hermione was coming to Harry's aid.

"I may not agree with his choice in partner and the way he went about letting us know what's going on. But I understand why he did it.

Harry, like me, grew up in the muggle world. A world that is made up with prejudice people that are against gays. A world were someone could kill a gay guy and get away with it.

Because Harry grew up in that kind of world he would have been scared to tell anyone he was gay. Even those he sees as family." Hermione said as she looked towards the way Ron left before moving her eyes to land on Molly.

"But he's lived that last six years in our world. He should have known we don't see gays the same way muggles do. At lest most of us don't anyways." Molly said as she looked to Harry.

"Yes but you also forget that during the summers he had to go back to his aunt and uncle's house. A house that more then likely would have hated him even more if they knew he was gay. We all know how they felt about magic." Hermione said with a hint of anger in her voice. Not at anyone in the house but at the Dursleys and the way they treated Harry.

Hermione then smiled at her friend. "But no matter the reason for him staying in the closet and just now coming out I'm going to stay by his side and I'll be at his wedding."

Harry smiled at her and glad that at lest one of his friends would be there.

"Us to." the twins said together.

"Same for me as well." Arthur said with a smile on his face again. "I still see you as one of my son and wouldn't miss your wedding."

Harry smiled at the four that would be at his wedding but he was still hurt at the three that wouldn't be there. He just hoped he could make it up to those three with time.
