The Monument Chapter 11, a harry potter fanfic

The Monument Keeperoliver Chapter 11

A/N: I wish to start this chapter with a sad note. I hope this note will not be too long, but I have to say it. May 17, 2012, a legend died. One that I liked very much. Donna Summer was 63 years old when she died of cancer.

The story is one that I didn't know of until I read her biography. She was born in Dorchester Ma, 20 miles from where I was born. She was born on December 31st 1948, 24 days before I was born. I wish I had met her back then. Unfortunately, I never did.

To honor her, I dedicate this chapter to her, and will use one of her songs to bring Harry and Luna together. It was going to happen next chapter, but I can make this work. You all know my fondness for music, and I have used it number of times through out my stories. Well I will use it once again, with Donna's song {Love to Love You Baby} Luna will hear it on Sirius' tape player, and start singing it.

I know I don't usually do this in my stories, but I hope it gives everyone a chance to find the song and play while reading the story. If you never heard it before, it was the song that started her popularity.

I wish to take this time, and wish Donna a fond goodbye. Donna I hope you can find peace with your maker as you stand before the gates of Heaven. I know that you became spiritual in your later years. I hope it was enough to get you through the gates. Rest In Peace Donna Summer.

As always, Ollie the Keeper.

Remus had been quiet during the start, and was the only one to see Harry, Tonks and Luna leave them. He was torn between leaving with his wife, or staying behind and listen as his friends got reacquainted. The decision was taken out of his hands, when Lily asked, "Remus, aren't you going to join in our conversation? You have been awfully quiet. Is something wrong?"

"No Lils, I was just letting Severus take the floor, after missing you for all these years. We have become quite close since I rejoined the school staff. I was even the Best Man at his wedding."

"SEV, YOU DIDN'T TELL ME YOU WERE MARRIED. When did that happen? Who is she? Why didn't you say so from the beginning? Do you have any children?" Lily was ecstatic.

"I didn't see where it fir into any of our conversation so far. I was going to tell you. We have been married for six years now. I married Elisabeth Turner. She ran an apothecary shop in Diagon Alley. No, we have no children as of right now. I believe I may be Barren due to the ingredients I have used in the past. I would love to have children of my own."

"Well, have you tried the fertility potion to boost your sperm count?"

"I have, but it didn't work. I have tried everything, but nothing works."

"Have you tried a cleansing solution on your system to get all of the bad pollutants out of your body."

"A cleansing solution? I hadn't thought of that. It may work. Like scourgifying my inner workings. Which one do you think I should use Lily?"

"I think the Alenta Body Purification potion. It is supposed to clear all contaminants and flush your system. Works better than the Milgrue Body Cleansing potion for infections and bacterias."

"Yes, I see your point, I not only want to kill the contamination, I want it out of my body. Thank you Lily. I hope this works, as Elisabeth wants a child before she is too old to bear children. I believe Neville just harvested some mandrakes, and Aloe plants. I should have it done by the weekend. Now, is there anything else you wish to talk about?"

"You spoke of Neville like he was your friend. Did Frank and Alice become friends with you as well?"

"No, Frank and Alice have been in the special care unit at St. Mungo's for the uncurables. When you and James were taken from us, Bellatrix, Rodolphus and Rebastan attacked them and used the Cruciatus on them for too long a period. It took away their memories. I have made friends with Remus, Neville and Filius. Maybe not the Marauders, but we do have our moments. We do get help from the twins though. As a matter of fact, I have used some of their prank potions for creating better potions in special areas."

Lily thought about it for a minute then asked, "Do the twins have memory prank in their stock?"

Remus jumped in on this, "Lily, I could kiss you. Sev, they have that potion that puts memories into your head. What do they call it? OH yeah, You Know Poo. It may not be the type of memories you need, but you could get them to change."

Sirius and James were laughing their arses off. "You Know Poo? That sounds brilliant. Why didn't we think of that Moony?" Sirius barked out.

"Because I have better things to think about, rather than Poo. They do have a wickedly brilliant mind those two do. If Fred had not been brought back, I doubt that WWW would be this popular. Together, they rule the Alley. And soon Hogsmeade."

Severus shuddered, "They didn't buy out Zonko's did they?"

"YUP. Seems old Zonks had been losing money since the twins opened up shop. It got worse when they started their mail order catalog. Now anyone hardly visits Zonko's during a Hogsmeade weekend. They do visit the post though. It seems the school owls are trained to detect WWW mail order catalogs. They are brought right to the Head Mistress. She has gotten right sneaky in her senior years."

"Remus, do you think this You Know Poo could actually be used for Memory modification? I have seen it, but after reading the name, I passed on it. How do they come up with these things is beyond me. The names are certainly grabbers though."

Sirius spoke up again, "Hey Remus, do you think you could bring us some of their products to look at?"

Lily looked disgusted, "What are you going to do with them Pads? You can't touch them or smell them. What use could they be to you?"

"On their side of the portrait, they are no good to me. But if I can copy the ingredients, maybe James and I could make it on this side of the portrait. OUCH! LILS THAT HURT."

"It will get worse if you think you are going to be making You Know Poo on this side of the portraits. I don't even want that stuff near my portrait. Do you understand me? BOTH OF YOU ."

"Yes dear. I understand you perfectly." James reported.

Sirius on the other hand, "What was that Lils? I didn't quite hear you. Please speak a little louder."

Lily slipped in behind Pads, without him noticing, and yelled into his ear. "NO POO FOR YOU. DID YOU HEAR ME THAT TIME DIM WIT."

Sirius had both hands to his ears, "Yes, but I doubt I'll ever hear anything again."

Severus and Remus were sitting back in their chairs laughing so hard tears were forming in their eyes.

This was when Tonks came in and got her companions. Rem, Sev, time to go. Before he could leave, Sirius asked Remus to put some music on, he didn't care what. Before he left the room, Sirius was singing to {Bad Company}. The three then bid the portraits goodbye, but doubted if they were heard, Sirius was singing so loud.

Harry and Luna were in the sitting room, waiting for the three to return. Once they were there, they wished each other good bye. And soon Harry and Luna were alone. Harry then said, "Lorcan and Lysander should be ready to return home, do you want me to get them, Lu?"

"Lu. When did you come up with that, Harry? And yes if you don't mind. I need to use the Loo."

"OK. And I just thought I might be a little more friendly if I came up with a nickname for you. If you don't like it, I'll drop it."

"No, please use it for a while, until I either get used to it, or get disgusted with it. I'll let you know if it becomes disgusting."

"Right. Be back in a bit LU." Harry laughed as he left. Luna was laughing as well, as she climbed the stairs. She stopped when she heard music coming from the library. She walked in and saw Lily and James in the same frame dancing to the song that was playing. Then she saw her leave James' frame and went to Sirius' frame and danced with him to the next song, which was much faster. Luna went to the Loo, but came right back and sat down to listen to the music. When the music stopped, she looked to the portraits.

"That was the last song on the tape Luna. You have to put in a different tape. They are in that box next to the tape player, sitting on that table." Sirius was pointing to the table.

Luna walked to the table, and searched the box. She found one that said Donna Summer Greatest Hits Vol 1 & 2. She would like to hear some music about summer, so she took the other tape out, and put it in. It took a minute then the music started.

The first song was a fast song that was called {On The radio}. It wasn't what Luna expected, but she liked it. Luna watched as James and Lily danced to the music and thought that they looked cute. The dance was one she didn't recognize, but looked like fun to do. Then the song ended, and switched to a new one. Luna took interest in this one, as it started out the way she felt.

While the song was playing, Luna was watching the most erotic dance she had ever seen, between James and Lily. She had her hands behind his neck, while she had her legs positioned around one of his, and was rubbing herself up and down this leg. This went on for the entire song, and Luna got warm just watching. As did Sirius. She heard him say, "SHIT, that was so freakin hot. Lils, I didn't know you could dance like that. James, how were you able to keep yourself from doing her right there?"

Lily through over her shoulder, "It's called control Pads. Something you know nothing about. Now, how about you and I share a dance. Just don't expect the same dance. That is just for James."

Lily walked back to her portrait, and was joined by Sirius and they danced a more proper dance.

Harry brought the twins home, and sent them to their room to get ready for dinner, which meant a bath and change of clothes. He sent them to their room when he heard the music coming from the library. He looked in, and saw Luna mouthing the words being sung, and looked down the room to see his mum and dad doing that dance that brought shivers down his spine. Harry felt like he was in a steam bath it was so hot. He then watched as his mum left for her portrait, and Sirius went to hers, where they danced to the next song. Harry got up the nerve to walk in and went to Luna, and reached out his hand to her and when she took it, he took her to the portraits, and danced with her.

Luna kept Harry's back to the portraits so that she could watch Lily, and follow her steps. She did this for a few more songs until she realized that Lily had just been following the rhythm of the music with her body. It was like magic as she danced with Harry and his family. Then a new song came on, and saw Lily take the same stance she took for that other song. Luna followed suit, and put her hands behind Harry's neck, and positioned her legs like Lily's.

Both Harry and James stood still while the ladies did their dance. This time their moves were faster, following the rhythm of the music. Harry and James were sweating by the end of the song, as was Sirius. As a matter of fact, Sirius had to sit down to hide the fact of how he was affected.

They continued to dance, until the twins came down to see what was going on. Luna saw them, and pulled them over, and got them to dance as well. Of course nothing like the dance her and Harry had just done. Lily had to restrain herself too.

Once the tape was finished, Harry took Luna and the twins out to dinner, and then to do a little shopping. Harry took them to an electronic store where he bought a new stereo with larger speakers, and a CD player. Harry heard one being used as a demo, and loved the sound of the deep bass coming from the system. He had Luna help him find some CDs. He also bought a TV and a game system for the twins called a PlayStation II. There were also about forty games to go with it.

Once he had them home, he set up both systems, and let the twins play, as he and Luna along with his family danced.

Within a week, their numbers grew, as Remus, Tonks, Severus, Elisabeth and the children joined in. Then, when Leia started to complain, Dobby came over. Dobby was torn about which he wanted to do, Dance or play games. Leia liked the games, so to start out, that was what he did. But as Leia became absorbed in the game she didn't take notice as Dobby got up and went to dance.

Another week, and Ron and Hermione joined in bringing their children. Harry had to buy another TV and game system to keep the children happy.

The group kept getting bigger and bigger. Harry had to move the children and the TVs down to the sitting room as he had to buy two more complete systems to accommodate all of the children. He also had to buy twenty more games. He set the systems up in all four corners of the room.

In the library, Harry added more speakers to the system and moved all the chairs out of the middle of the room, to allow more space for people to dance. Fred, Angelina, George, Katie and their kids joined the party. Bill and Fleur, with their children did as well, however, Teddy and Victoire decided they would rather dance than play games.

Arthur and Molly was beginning to see less and less of their grand children, and when they asked about it, they decided to join the party when they were told what was going on. Draco and Astoria joined them as did Neville and Hannah. Draco asked if he could bring a friens and his wife, and soon Blaise and Tracy joined them with their kids.

Then finally, Dean and Ginny joined them along with their children. There was a party every night at #12. Though not every one was there every night, there was always six couples with their children there.

During one of the earlier sessions, Harry asked Luna if she would go on a date with him for dinner and a movie. Luna was only too happy to accept. It then became an every Friday night thing for them to go out for at least dinner, then either go to a movie, or back the house and dance.

Soon, it became more often that Harry and Luna went out. Sometimes with the kids, and most of the time without them, so that Harry and Luna could build what ever it was they felt for each other.

Harry and Ginny got over their uncomfortable feelings toward each other, and when her and Dean came over for the dance, they shared a couple together. When they danced, Dean and Luna were often dancing together. Draco and Astoria became more frequent visitors. Remus and Tonks were constant, as were Severus and Elisabeth. It made for more interesting dance partners. Two of the funniest sets were Ginny and Draco, and Tonks and Severus. They always chose the fastest songs to dance to.

Harry and Luna were sitting out one of the dances about two months after the dance party started. They were enjoying a drink, while listening to a song on the stereo by the WHO. Harry looked up at his mum, as they played a song called Pictures of Lily, and Harry loved the fact that both Severus and James were singing to her. He could see her swooning to the attention. The dreamy look in her eyes told Harry that she was enjoying the serenade. Then, Harry had the idea of putting Donna Summer back on, and every one watched as James, Lily, Harry and Luna danced to Love To Love You Baby. The temperature in the room must have raised about twenty degrees as every one was sweating when the song was over. At the end of the song, Harry did something he wished he did long ago. He pulled Luna into his arms, and kissed her with a deep passionate kiss. It lasted for a few minutes, and when he broke it off, Luna grabbed his lapels, and pulled him in for another. Sirius and James could not help it, as they let loose with the wolf whistles. Lily thought it funny, and added one of her own, which took everyone by surprise.

From that moment on, Harry and Luna looked for any reason what so ever, to kiss. Harry's affection for Luna was growing by leaps and bounds. Luna's had already been there, and was more than pleased that Harry was finally showing his.

Ron and Hermione saw the action between Harry and Luna becoming more intimate. Ron thought nothing of it, but Hermione was pleased that the two finally broke down the barriers they had built up around themselves, and were enjoying life. Hermione took this chance to ask Harry to dance with her, which Harry accepted. As they danced, Hermione talked.

"I always told you Harry that things would work out for you, didn't I?"

"Yes you did Hermione. I didn't think it would be like this, but, I like how it is turning out. Luna and the twins are like a miracle healing drug. I love the twins, and they love me. We have fun together, and they now call me Uncle Harry, rather than Harry. As for Luna. Hermione, I think I have fallen in love with her. I haven't told her that yet, but I want to. I just don't know how to approach the matter. I'm sure she feels the same way about me, but I'm not positively sure. What if she just likes my company because we have fun together."

Hermione shook her head. "Harry, you know you share a bond with her. You know she hates to be apart from you. Just look at her looking at us. Do you see jealousy there? She wants you back with her now. She hates that you're dancing with me, and wishes it was her in your arms. Let's just say, she has all the symptoms of being in love."

"Do you really think so Hermione, because I think I love her too as I already said. Hell, I know I love her. I can't ignore that feeling anymore. You're right, I have to tell her how I feel. I have to tell her she has stolen my heart, but she can keep it, if I can have hers in exchange."

"WHOA Harry. When did you become so deep. That was almost a marriage proposal. Not to me, mind you. However, I wish Ron would show that type of emotion. His romantic thoughts are all on a good meal, and a better Quidditch match."

"OH Hermione, I'm sure you're in there somewhere. Ron is a good guy, a good husband, and a good father. Maybe he doesn't express himself like others, but his heart is in the right place."

"I know that Harry, but he is so easy to tease that I even do it to him when he's not there to hear it. And I do love him. He is a lovable git."

"Well, as long as you two know you love each other, there is nothing else to it. Now, since the song has come to an end, and before Luna starts throwing real daggers at me rather than with her eyes, I believe I will ask her to dance. And thank you Hermione, for being the best friend I ever had."

"You're welcome Harry. You are my best friend as well." and Hermione gave him a hug before going off to find where Ron was hiding himself.

Harry walked up to Luna, "Would you care to dance pretty lady?"

"OH, are you done with that other pretty lady already. I didn't see you leave her. I must have been looking at some hot guy on the dance floor. I guess it would not hurt to have one dance with you. Maybe it will, help me to find that hottie." Luna sighed.

"Well then, I hope I don't distract you too much from your search while we dance." he pulled her into his arms and moved her around the floor. Her eyes locked on his the entire time they danced. Her eyes were not the gray color they were in school. They were a silver blue color that was the most beautiful color he ever saw. He could fall into those pools and drown, but he would be happy to do so.

They had danced for three straight songs never taking their eyes away from each other. Harry had to admit to himself, he was indeed in love with this beautiful woman he was dancing with.

A/N: Well, there it is. Harry has finally accepted his love for Luna. I hope it didn't seem rushed.

I know that having author's notes before and after a chapter is not considered kosher, but this was a special chapter, and I hope you forgive me for doing it.

I will now end this with one final goodbye to the Queen of Disco. Goodbye LaDonna, and I hope you continue to flourish during your next great adventure. As always, Ollie the Keeper.
