Hermione and Ginny did not take Luna's advice, and five days after they learned of the bond, they still had not accepted it. Because of this, the two began to get weak with flu like symptoms. Feverish, chills and always tired. They could not think straight. It came down to them being admitted to the hospital wing for treatment.

Even after this, they still would not accept the bond. They both thought it was a form of forced relations. Harry never talked to them about accepting them. He always left it to their own decision. He was worried for them though.

He was not happy with Ron either. Ron could see how sick they were and yet he applauded them for their fortitude. It was like he wished to see them get sick. How the girls did not see it was confusing as everyone else saw it, including Mrs. Weasley. She tried talking to Ginny, but something was keeping her from thinking straight. She tried to keep Ron away from the girls, but they would not hear of it.

Poppy checked them once again to look for a potion or spell work that was keeping them in this mind set. What she found was worse. It was a combination of fever and fear. They were afraid that Harry could not them if there was more than one mate. Ron had put that thought in their mind. The fever tore down any resistance to this thinking due to them being very weak.

Luna did her best to convince them to accept their bond with Harry, but even in their weakened position, they stayed strong in their conviction to see how bad it would get before they had to give in. It didn't seem like it would be too long now though. They were not eating enough to survive. Harry ate more than they did while he was living with the Dursleys.

None of them would give up on the girls though. They didn't know how but they knew they would get through to them.

In the mean time, Luna had done her best to talk Daphne in joining her when she had her first sex with Harry. Luna knew it was scary for Daphne after seeing the Slytherin manliness. She remembered how her and Daphne first got involved. It was because of these same idiots.

Luna was one of the DA members to help Harry after the Death Eaters broke into Hogwarts and set up the death of Professor Dumbledore. She could not believe Professor Snape was actually the one to kill him. However when he came running down from the tower with Draco in tow, and he began firing spells at her fellow schoolmates, It confirmed what Harry had told them. Harry chased them all the way through the school and out onto the grounds where Snape stopped the pursuit with a spell that knocked Harry out.

After the funeral for Professor Dumbledore, she just wanted to walk around the lake, trying to forget the things that happened over the past few days. She knew she couldn't forget them, but she had to try.

She had not gone far when she heard some sobbing coming from the bushes to her right. She went to see who it was and was surprised to find Daphne Greengrass sitting there crying. "Is there anything I can do to help you?" Luna asked.

"Just leave me alone."

"I think that is the last thing you need. You need someone with you to comfort you. I could do that if you would let me."

Daphne looked up at her interruption. She had seen her in the school, but never learned her name. "There is nothing you can do for me. The only person that could help me is now dead."

"How could the Professor help you? If he could then maybe another one could help you as well?"

"Like who?"

"Professor McGonagall or Flitwick. They would try to help you if they could."

"They are both heads of house and neither of them are mine. My head of house is no longer here."

"There must be something someone could do to help. Perhaps if you told me what your problem was, together maybe we could figure out a solution."

Daphne sighed, "Perhaps you're right. I need to tell someone. What is going on in the Slytherin House is disgusting. They are calling Snape a hero to their cause. He was the one that did away with the Potter lover. With Dumbledore gone, there was no one who would cover for him when he made mistakes. He is unprotected and alone except for his companions who were hopeless. A muggleborn witch and an idiot blood traitor. They said there was no way Potter could ever defeat the Dark Lord now. You have to know, though I am a Slytherin, I do not believe the same way the others do. I have followed Potter throughout his journey, and I hoped he would somehow prove to be what everyone said he was, the Chosen One. I tried to talk to my dorm mates but they just laughed at me. Now they even threw me and Tracy out of our own house. We are not allowed back into Slytherin for fear of being hurt if we tried. Even with the help of your Professors, there is no way we would be safe. Tracy has gone home because of this, and I would go home except my family is hiding somewhere and I can't get to them. They fear I might have a trace put on me and they are probably right, or I will have one put on me by years end."

Luna smile at Daphne, "I think I can help you for the summer, Daphne. Harry showed the Army a place to train and it could be used for other things as well, like an apartment. Would you like to go see it?"

Daphne didn't know why, but she felt she could trust her, but she needed to know her name first. "Could you tell me who you are first?"

"That's the easiest question you have asked me. My name is Luna Lovegood from Ravenclaw House."

"You're the one they call Looney."

The smile stayed on Luna's face, but it looked forced now and Daphne could see it. "Yes, but I do not like that name."

"I'm sorry Luna, I meant no harm."

The smile was back and she answered, "It's OK. Harry taught me to ignore it when anyone called me it. He even got some to quit calling me it, like Ron, Dean and Seamus. Hermione called me it at first but Ginny was the one to correct her. Ginny and Harry are my best friends. Come on, let me show you what I am talking about.

Luna took Daphne to the Room of Requirement and she asked for a place to live with all the facilities. When the door opened, a full sized apartment complete with a kitchen and Lav was in place. A queen size bed with a Ravenclaw bedspreads was also there. Luna was about to ask for a change when Daphne stopped her. "I like them Luna, leave it the way it is. And thank you for your help. I just wish someone would be here over the summer to keep me company."

"If asked real nice, I would stay with you. My daddy will understand. He is very understanding. Besides, I like the idea of staying here for the summer. I may get to explore the areas Harry has visited. I don't know about the Chamber, but there are others. I do think we should keep this between just the two of us though."

"I don't see how we could Luna. We would have to get food somehow? And clothes, toiletries and other necessities."

Luna called out, "Sammy, could you come here please?"

There was a pop, and a house elf appeared, "How may Sammy serve my mistress?"

Luna explained to him what they needed and he bowed and promised he would not tell a soul. He left and returned an hour later with their trunks and food. "Sammy will be back later with the rest of what you need. If you need anything, just call my name, or if I can't come then call for Winky. She will keep our secret as well." and the elf was gone.

They made their plans to leave on the train with the rest, but would return with Sammy's Help. He could get into the castle without using an outside entrance. It would help to keep their secret.

Once this was done, Luna and Daphne started to settle in. By settling in, they became closer than Luna would have imagined. On the first night, Daphne made a confession. "Luna, I have to tell you something, and it may change your mind about staying. I am a lesbian. Tracy and I shared a bed, and I have never been with a man. So if you wish to leave, I understand."

Luna looked at her new friend, "Daphne, I have been with a man, but to be honest with you, it was less than enjoyable. I suppose if it was someone else, it may have been different. So, to answer your statement, I have needs as well, and you can't be as bad as my last lover. At least I hope not."

Daphne laughed for the first time in front of Luna, "I would hope so too Luna. If you don't mind, who was this man?"

"Sorry Daphne, but that must be kept a secret for now. He is still a good friend. So, when do you wish to see how good we are together?"

Daphne walked to Luna and pulled her into a hug and then a kiss, "No time like the present."

Sexual encounter for those who wish to skip this part-}

After another kiss, Daphne began to get braver with Luna and started to explore her body. Luna was smaller than her in most places, but she responded well to her touch. Small moans escaped Luna's lips as she felt the first advances of Daphne. Hands played over her breasts and tweaked her nipples through her blouse and bra. Her arse was grabbed and pinched playfully. Then she felt the hand slip around to the front and began to rub her vagina, making it moist.

Then she felt fingers playing with the buttons of her blouse and the air hitting her exposed flesh. It sent shivers down her spine. Then her blouse was off, and the fingers began with the fasteners on her skirt. She felt it drop to her feet where it sat as Luna could not move to kick it off.

Daphne Pulled her towards the bed, catching her when she tripped over her skirt. Daphne had caught her around her breasts, and she did not remove her hands. Instead, they kneaded them and cupped them and made to them with her hands. Luna was so heated by this time, even if she wanted her to stop, she couldn't say it. But to be honest, she did not want it to stop. She wanted it to go on. She collapsed on to the bed and watched as Daphne started to take her clothes off. She did not stop until she was naked and joined Luna on the bed. Once there she went to work on Luna's bra and had it off then went to work on her pants. Now Luna was naked and ready for the next move. It happened just that fast as Daphne reached down and kissed Luna with the most sensual kiss Luna ever felt, not that she felt a lot of them.

Luna responded by exploring Daphne's body, starting with her breasts. Hers were smaller than Daphne's and her nipples much darker and longer. She pulled on them with her fingers causing Daphne to moan. This caused Luna to get bolder and she left the breasts tom work their way down to Daphne's hot spot. Daphne pulled off from the kiss and whispered, "Play harder my sweet. Stick your fingers in it and move them around. Play with my nub as well, by rubbing on it. YES, just like that. Ummmm yes that's it. OH faster Luna, faster. Yes keep it up and I will do the same for you. OH YES, like that. More, more, more. Uhhhhh, OH yes, that's it. I'm so close Love. Just a little more, then I can do it for you. A bit more. Oh sweet Merlin, YES. Ummmm, so good. Luna you were marvelous. Even Tracy never got me to cum that quick. Now, let me do you."

However, Daphne didn't use her hands this time, she used her mouth. She kissed her breasts and pulled her nipples into her mouth and sucked on them until they started to hurt, but it was hurt that made Luna crazy with lust. Then Daphne started to move down Luna's body with her lips, sticking her tongue in Luna's belly button momentarily, then moving on down to her pussy. She sucked on her button first, causing Luna to squeal. It sent an electrical shock to her brain that told her it wanted more. She got it when Daphne's mouth came in contact with her lower lips and stuck her tongue in her fold. The tongue moved around touching her walls and sending wave after wave of pleasure throughout her body. She never wanted this to end, it felt so good. But then she felt Daphne's fingers join in, and the pleasure became even greater. She didn't know how much longer she would last, the pleasure was so great. Daphne seemed to sense this, and moved even faster with her tongue and fingers. Luna exploded with a burst of pleasure never felt by her before. She figured Daphne would leave when she did, but that was not the case. She stayed down there catching her fluids as they began to flow. The feeling was so intense that Luna came again and Daphne was rewarded with another flow of juices.

Daphne finished off cleaning up Luna's mess and rolled off to the side. "Ummmm, I am now looking forward to the summer with you my love. I am glad I opened up to you by the lake. I would have missed out on something very special.."

"Thank you Daphne, that was very special to me as well. But I must have you know that I have not given up on men. One in particular. If he asks me to bed with him, I will jump at the chance. However, I don't see that happening though as he likes someone else. One can only dream though, that it will happen."

"I agree love, but until then I will always be there for you."

End of Sexual Encounter-}

Now she had to figure out how to get Daphne interested in Harry enough to bet her to go to bed with them. Of course she also had to get Harry interested as well.

Other things were going on besides Harry and Luna. For one, Remus and Tonks were able to go on a honeymoon now that is was over. Thanks to her dad, Tonks had enough money for their trip and for Teddy's education, plus some. Most of it they put in the bank for Teddy, but they did take a two week honeymoon to wherever Tonks wished to go. Tonks thought on it for a bit then said, "How about Las Vegas in the states? I heard that it never sleeps."

"I didn't know you like to gamble Nym?"

"There are other things to do there besides gamble Rem. I do like playing the slots though, Not for long, but for maybe an hour. You could do that too. There are shows there and nightclubs. We could also travel for a bit there. There is Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Disneyworld. No, scratch that last one. Teddy will want to go there. But if there is somewhere else you had in mind then tell me."

"Actually, I was. A tropical island with warm water. Sandy beaches all along the coastline. Crystal clear water. How does that sound?"

"Boring. All there is to do there is swim."

"Yes, but think of what you will be wearing."

"Rem, you never went swimming with me so what do you know what I wear?"

"Well, I presumed a bathing suit. Maybe a two piece bathing suit."

"Sorry Rem. I swim in the raw. Au natural. In the buff. Naked. Get the picture."

Remus was drooling at the picture Tonks just painted. "Down boy. I think you get the picture. Well, what ever you wish to do, is fine with me."

The thought of Tonks swimming naked did sound good, but not when every Tom, Dick or Harry was there seeing it also. "Las Vegas it is then. When do you want to go?"

"Friday so we only have to spend one weekend there. Then we can come back on a Friday."

"If that's what you want, but it is not a full two weeks.."

"I don't wish to spend too much time away from my Teddy Bear. Do you?"

Remus pulled her into a hug. "That's what I love about you Sweetheart, so full of common sense, I agree with that. Besides, I have to start looking for a job. I don't want to live off what your dad left you. I appreciate it and all, but I don't want to become a house father."

Fred and George got right back into the Business they started. Weasley's Wizard Wheezes was going to open back up with a bang. Literally. The Fireworks display they had planned was going to be bigger than they one they gave at Hogwarts, complete with a dragon. It was going to ride down Diagon Alley and explode over Gringotts. The Goblins may not like it, but the crowd will love it.

Fred Floo Called their ex employee, Verity Saunders, to see if she still wished to work at the WWW. They knew she was wanting to get married, but because of the war they didn't know if she did.

She answered the Floo and accepted Fred's offer to return to work. When she showed up the next day she explained that her and her boyfriend broke up when all the muggle questioning began. They went into hiding and never got back together. Now that it was safe, she wanted to start her life all over again.

It took two weeks to get all their stock back on the shelves before they were ready to reopen. On opening day, everything went off as planned. The fireworks display was the most thrilling opening ever experienced in the Alley, and the twins were surprised when the Goblins even complimented them on it.

Right from the start, their business was a success. It was so good, even the Ministry ordered from them for certain of their pranks to be used for the Aurors in their duties. Minister Shacklebolt was the one to suggest this to the head of the Aurors.

Ron was upset after Harry finished talking to him. He didn't know that if Hermione and Ginny refused their bond, they could die from it. However, when he tried to talk to them about reconsidering, they were to weak to even talk. He was looking at what would happen if they refused the bond, and it didn't look too good. They had both lost weight and were only a shadow of what they use to be. He was sorry for ever talking to them about it now.

What he didn't understand was why Harry wasn't in the same condition. Sure, he acknowledged the bond, but if the girls didn't, they were still not together. Harry wouldn't tell him and his Mum wouldn't tell him so he asked his brother Bill. Bill gave him the same answer, so he asked Fleur.

'It is an affair of zee heart Ronald. Zee heart is a strong muscle, but can be easily broken. Harry has gone through much in his fight against zee Dark Lord. It has strengthened it through all his trials. Ginnee and Hermione have never had to go through what Harry went through, so they have fallen to zee pain. Do you understand it now."

Not knowing for sure if he did or not, Ron nodded yes. He didn't wish to go through that again. He would wait and see how it would all turn out.
