Because Of Ron Keeperoliver Chapter Sixteen

The night before Harry reported to the station with Petunia and Dudley, Lily and Petunia were up all night. Petunia was up because she didn't know what she was going to do. Lily because she was worried about what was going to happen to Harry.

They didn't get any sleep, but were able to calm down and relax. When Harry explained what he was going to do, it at first freightened Petunia, but then when Dudley said he would be there as well, she was OK to go and talk to the authorities and press charges against Vernon for assault and abuse.

Harry's solicitor met Harry at the precinct and entered with Dudley and Petunia. Harry had to pay the fine for public fighting and creating a disturbance, but it didn't bother him. When Petunia was questioned about her experience with her husband, she told them everything that happened and Vernon was brought in for questioning.

He denied having touched her and told them that she fell and hurt herself. When he was asked where it was she fell, he said the kitchen. Then when he was asked how she fell, he said she tripped over something, but didn't know what.

Harry's solicitor was writing all this down and waited for Vernon to finish before he asked any questions. When Vernon finally finished with his statement, the Solicitor asked him how he knew this happened if he was in the front room.

"I heard a noise from the kitchen and ran in to see what happened and found her on the floor, unconscious."

"And you found nothing she could have tripped over?"

"There was a chair by her that could have caused it."

"Do you know what she hit that caused her to pass out?"

"No. Like I said, she was in the middle of the floor when I found her."

"So, she tripped over a chair and fell to the middle of the floor, with nothing to show what she hit when she fell, is that correct?"

"How many times do I have to repeat myself? It happened just like I said."

"Mr. Dursley, for her to fall and hurt herself like you said, she would have other bruises to show for it. When she was examined for the bruises to her face, those were the only bruises found on her. There was nothing in the kitchen that would leave imprints on her like she shows. They are fist marks and open hand marks that created these bruises. Perhaps you should correct your statement to what really happened as it will go easier for you. Between her statement and the hospital's statement, the story you told would be called liable in the court. That would increase your penalty."

Vernon by this time was fed up with the entire procedure and went off on Petunia like he did with Harry. This time the truth was told and the fine slapped on him and a court appearance given.

He was held back until Petunia, Harry and Dudley were gone for fifteen minutes before he was released to leave. He cussed all the way back to work, where the Manager was waiting for him with his walking papers. He was fired from his job for his abuse, not only to his wife, but from complaints from people he worked with.

With the way he was released from work, he doubted if he would be able to find work else where that would pay the same rate he received.

Petunia and Lily were once again talking, only this time they were in a much better mood. Petunia was much happier and laughing at the things she told her about the Marauders in school. She did this to keep Petunia's mind off what was going on, and it worked.

Dudley's next trip to Diagon Alley took him to purchase his requirements and a few other items he thought he might need. These were purchased from Fred and George in their shop. Harry's discount tripled what he would normally have gotten. Not to mention his free samples he got. He had to have more of the Ton Tongue Toffee, and some Canary Cremes.

If he knew Hermione was going to be Head Girl, he might have been a little more subtle about buying them with her around, but since he didn't know, and she didn't say anything, he walked out with a smile on his face.

With everything in the trunk he purchased, Him and Harry made their way home. Petunia wanted to see the things he bought, and when Dudley was distracted by Luna when she walked in, Petunia took a piece of candy and ate it. It was a Canary Creme, and she was soon sporting yellow feathers instead of her hair. She didn't even know it happened until Lily started laughing at her. She looked into a window to see why and when she saw the feathers, she began to laugh as well. She was lucky it was the crème, as the toffee may have caused more damage to her already bruised face.

In another time or place, Dudley would have been in deep trouble for letting his mum eat magical candy, but now she laughed along with everyone else.

Harry and Dudley sat in Dudley's room with Harry showing Dudley how to move his wand with each spell, tricks he learned from the half blood prince on potions, correct pronunciation to avoid a wrong spell and other information he would need to get by in his one year. When Harry told him about the different houses, Dudley became worried he would be put in a house away from Harry. Harry told him it didn't matter as he would still be there for him, but with Harry being in his last year and Dudley being in his only year, if he was placed in Gryffindor, he wouldn't see Harry that often.

Another thing he told Dudley was that his age difference would be sort of a problem with his classmates. He would be answering a lot of questions about why he was starting out so late. The answer would always be the same, but it would be told over and over again. Dudley knew this and it didn't bother him yet.

When Hermione visited Harry and Dudley, Dudley didn't know what he was letting himself in for when he asked her to help him with his magic. The first thing she told him was to never try magic outside of Hogwarts because of the trace put on all wands. She forgot that Dudley was over seventeen so the trace was pulled. Next she warned him to never try anything with out a trained person being there with him in case something went wrong, as in potions. Lily could have become a Potion master if she wished to pursue it. Before she left, Dudley knew more of what not to do than what he could or can do. He saw Harry laughing behind Hermione's back because of what she was doing to Dudley.

To help him out, Harry asked Hermione to come with him to see how Luna was doing as she had been feeling morning sickness lately.

They found her lying down and when she saw Harry walk in she started up. "What did you do to me Harry Potter? I have never felt so sick in all my life. I can't even look at food without becoming sick. Why didn't you warn me it was going to be like this?"

When Harry started to laugh, he knew he did the wrong thing. Luna started to cry and Hermione was scolding him for being so insensitive. He tried to explain why he was laughing, but he couldn't get a word in edge wise. He went to Luna and took her hand, "Luna, having never experienced being pregnant, I couldn't tell you what to expect. I also told you before you got this way that you didn't have to, but you went ahead and did it. So, to blame me for what you wished for is kind of rediculous, don't you think?"

"Someone must have known this was going to happen? Why couldn't he or she have told me?"

"Mainly because you didn't listen to anyone. We tried to tell you many things, but you always said this is what you wanted. WAIT! Why isn't Padfoot here with you?"

"Because he is using the lav right now, doing what I feel like doing. He is feeling everything I am feeling. Isn't there any thing I can take to stop this. I am so hungry I could eat more than Ron, but I'm afraid if I eat anything, I'll be wearing it."

Hermione thought on it for a moment then asked her, "Have you tried eating salted crackers? That may help out some."

"Any kind of crackers, or a special kind?"

"I think you should go with the white crackers as there is butter in the other type of cracker. You should drink a lot of water too."

"Thank you Hermione, I'll try that. Harry could you get some for me please. It's only right since you got me this way." He was laughing as he left the room. "He could at least show a little sympathy for me."

"He did leave to go get them Luna. He does feel something for you."

"I just hope I get over this soon. I don't want to go back to school and be visiting Poppy every ten minutes."

When Harry got back, Luna grabbed the box of crackers and started eating them. She felt something move in her stomach and thought she was going to have to visit the lav again, but it was just her stomach say thank you for feeding it.

With one week left to the summer hols, things had moved along smartly. Petunia got her divorce from Vernon, and left him with very little. He had to sell the house to pay for what he owed her. When she learned he was fired from Grunnings, she was tickled by it. Now he was looking for another job, but found it difficult because of a lack of any support from his last job.

Luna had gotten over her morning sickness and was now eating normally or regularly as Sirius said that her eating habits were the strangest things he ever saw. Sardines, straight from the can. Pizza with anchovies. Tuna fish with mustard and sour pickles. He was going through facial strains with each added item. Lily tried telling him that cravings were a part of being pregnant. James told Sirius about Lily's cravings and the weird hours she would have them.

As the time got closer, Dudley was getting anxious, ready to leave and get started. His trunk had been packed for two weeks and his wand was always with him. He was often found with a book in his hands, reading either Transfiguration or potions. He thought these were going to be his favorite classes. It may change when he saw Filius and Hagrid.

Lily never got morning sickness, but her cravings were as bad as she had with Harry, and James had to laugh at her requests. With Harry, she craved sweets. With Luna, she craved salty and sour things. With Lily and Jasmine (Like Luna said, it is going to be a girl), she craved peanut butter and anything. Her favorite was peanut butter and bacon sandwiches. She also had Peanut butter and graham crackers, peanut butter and banana sandwiches and peanut butter straight from the jar.

Harry had visitors over through out the summer with Daphne and Draco being pretty frequent. Hermione and Fred were mostly on weekends as the WWW was keeping the twins quite busy. Dean and Lavender came by once, but it was to tell Harry that her and Dean were breaking up as her demands were too much for Dean. Dudley saw this and wondered what her demands were that were too much for him. Lavender was a very good looking girl and it would have to be a hell of a lot of stuff for him to give up on her. He asked her if she was seeing anyone else and she said no. That left the door opened for him. Their years may be different, but their age wasn't.

This was with ten days left to the summer and Dudley got a date with her and tonight was that date. He didn't know where to take her, so he asked Harry, and he suggested some place nice, but not too expensive. "Now where would I know how to find a place like that Harry? I don't frequent those type places. So, tell me where I can find one."

Harry and Dudley took a walk to where he would find it, and it was close to the Mansion. Harry gave Dudley some money, more than enough to cover the cost of the meal and travel to any place they wished to go afterwards. Dudley didn't know what to say, so he just hugged him for his thank you.

Dudley got his best suit out and a tie to wear as the place he was taking her demanded a man wear a tie and a woman wear proper evening wear. He decided he needed a haircut before he got dressed and he had plenty of time so he went to tell his mum where he was going, and his Aunt Lily said, "I can cut your hair for you Dudley, to save you money and time."

This worried Dudley a little as he saw Harry and James hair. He didn't wish to look like that, so he told her it was no problem as the barber was just around the corner. He left before he could be talked out of it.

When the time came for Dudley to pick up Lavender, Harry surprised him when he rented a Limo for them to use. When he stopped to pick up Lavender, she wanted to scream she was so overjoyed at what she saw. Her mum and dad came to see what happened and they laughed when they saw Lavender standing there looking at the Limo that was there to pick her up. Then when a man got out to escort her to the Limo, she about tripped over her own feet. They saw a perfect evening for their daughter.

Lavender got another surprise when she saw where Dudley was taking her for their meal. Rapheal's was the most exquitite restaurant in London and it was impossible to get a reservation this little in advance. She didn't know it was one of Sirius' part ownerships.

The shocks didn't stop with the establishment, it continued when Dudley and her were treated like royalty when seated. People in the surrounding tables watched them as they were seated. She saw them leaning in and talking in private and looking up to see who they were.

Then when someone on stage asked for everyone's attention, he stated , "Please, may I have your attention. It has come to my attention that we have with us, a hero who helped end a long war with an evil force. Please give a hand to Miss Lavender Brown. Please stand up Miss Brown and take a bow."

Lavender was embarrassed to do it, but from the urging of Dudley, she did this and the round of applause was deafening. Her embarrassment changed to pride as the other patrons stood up to her and applauded even louder. She looked down at Dudley and saw him smile at her and clapping his own hands to her heroic deed.

Lavender sat back down and the noise quieted down for them to place their order and enjoy the evening. Before their meal came, a few people came up to them and asked for Lavender's autograph, and one gentleman even asked if he could kiss her on the cheek. She refused of course but thanked him for his request.

She looked across to Dudley, "Did you plan all this Dudley?"

Dudley laughed as he answered, "I swear I had nothing to do with it. I didn't even know it was going to happen. Harry was the one to suggest this place to eat, saying it was only a few blocks from where we live. It is, but I didn't know which place he was talking about. As for the speech, I don't even know what they were talking about."

"Unless this place is magical, I don't think anyone else knows what he was talking about either." she looked around and was surprised when she did in fact see other wizards and witches seated in the crowd. Ones she knew for sure who they were. The Minister of Magic, Amelia Bones was one of them, with a dark skinned man she didn't know.

The meal was brought out to them and they enjoyed the best meal either ever ate. The chef had to be a five start chef. The talk was little during the meal as neither of them wished to see the meal get cold. Then the dessert was another delicious offering.

In all, the meal took two hours for them to enjoy. It would be the only time for Lavender to eat there, but not one she would soon forget.

Dudley asked her if there was anywhere else she would like to go and she asked to just drive around to let her food settle. They did for another hour when she thought she better head home. Dudley got out of the vehicle to escort her to her door. Lavender thanked him for a wonderful evening and agreed to see him again before they left for school.

Two days later Dudley was picking her up to take her to a movie. Once they left her home, she sidetracked Dudley and told him where to go. It was a small Inn that provided rooms and this is where she took him. Once in the room, she began her plan to seduce Dudley. It was a mute point as Dudley knew what she wanted when she pulled up to the Inn. He picked her up and carried her to the bed and took off his clothes. He still had some of his chubbyness from his childhood, but he was no where near what he once was. He also didn't compare with Harry, which he didn't know he was being compared to.

Lavender was with her fifth man sexually and she didn't think she would ever find a man to compare with Harry ever again. Not in size, nor attentiveness. Dean was close in size, falling about an inch short Dudley was two inches short. Ron was a pathetic four inches short, and Seamus was also two inches short. However no one came close to how much attention Harry paid to her desires.

Dudley began with kissing her on the lips and from there moved to her neck and shoulders. She tried to slow him down, but he was too eager and was rushing through all phases of the process. She stopped him and said, "Dudley, have you ever done this before?"

Dudley was embarrassed by the question, "Sure, a number of times, why?"

"Were there any complaints?"

"No."

"Any second dates?"

This time the answer came out later than the last question, "No, there were no second dates."

Lavender smiled at him, "Then how about letting me set the pace, OK?"

Dudley just nodded his head and let her take over. It was the best move he ever made, as Lavender knew what she was doing. She took it slow and had him do the same. It started with the kiss, which lasted much longer than their first one. His visit to her neck and shoulder was a longer stay, moving her neckline with each kiss, like she showed him.

Dudley was enjoying this learning lesson and soon took over on his own, just following what she already taught him. He finally got her sweater off and her bra off, and was working on her breasts. He spent ten minutes there and was giving Lavender chills with his kisses and his sucking on them. He was learning fast, much faster than Ron did.

She felt him kiss his way to her waist of her slacks and the cool air as he drew them down her legs, following the exposed skin with kisses like Harry always did. This is what she was looking for, someone who knew what she wanted.

When Dudle finally pulled her knickers off and placed his lips on her pussy, she was experiencing her first orgasm. It was a small one, but knew they would get better as he moved along. She was considering letting him do her the way Harry did, when she thought, 'No, that was why she lost Dean. She asked him for anal sex and he thought it disgusting.' She didn't wish to lose another lover because of her fettish.

Dudley remembered how Harry told his story of the seven and their personal desires and remembered what it was that Lavender loved. He didn't know if he could do this, but if he wanted to keep her, then he would have to try. "Lavender, I now this may sound kind of sick, but have you ever had anal sex?"

Lavender almost passed out, "OH Yea, I've had it before and I kind of enjoy it. Why?"

"I wouldn't mind trying it with you if you like. I haven't done it before and have thought about it, but was afraid to ask."

"I would like to try it with you as well, but only after we have straight sex, to warm us up. Did you talk with Harry about me?"

"I'm sorry Lavender, I did. It's not what you think though. I asked him if he knew you well in school, and he said you were a part of the seven who defeated Voldemort. He also told me how you did your part, just so that I would know what you liked."

"Leave it to Harry to still think of me after we were through. I still love him You know. He was the only one who listened to my feelings and acted on them. I told him after he did it, that I would never do it this way again, but I'm afraid I liked it very much and is the reason Dean and I broke up, because I asked him to do it to me this way. He felt it was disgusting and would never do it that way."

Dudley didn't say anything after this and just went ahead with their plan. He entered her pussy and pushed his cock as deep as he could and then set his motion and speed. He felt how tight she was and became excited from the friction it was creating. He didn't wish to end it this way, so he slowed down and worked on getting her to her second orgasm. It happened sooner than he thought and it was a huge one as he pushed faster to extend it for her. Lavender was going through a massive orgasm that had her shivvering from the shear delight it gave her.

Then Dudley pulled out of her pussy and used his fingers to lube her arse with her cum and get her ready for his anal invasion. Maybe he wasn't as big as Harry, but he knew how to use what he had. She relaxed as much as she could to make it easier for Dudely and soon felt his cock push against her ring and soon the entry of his cock as it moved forward up her entry. Yes, it was smaller than Harry and the difference she felt was quite a bit. With Harry, there was a little pain, but a lot of pleasure from the pressure he put in her. Dudley gave her no pain and very little pressure, but it felt good in it's own way.

Dudley never felt anything so tight in all his life, and the feeling was unbelieveable. The warmth and the softness was beyond description. Maybe what he told her was a bit fabricated as he never asked any one about this, but now that he felt it, he wondered why he hadn't. It was the most marvelous feeling in the world.

Dudley was soon driving his cock faster and harder than he ever did, trying to reach his own orgasm and he felt it, she also felt it and matched his speed with her own and soon she felt him explode in her arse, filling her with his sperm.

Dudley pulled out when he came and laid beside her for a looking at her and wondering where they would go next in their relationship, if there was one in place.

He didn't even have to ask as she turned to him and said, "Will you remember me when we get to Hogwarts, Dudley? I wouldn't mind going to Hogsmeade with you on a date."

"Will I remember you?" Dudley laughed, "I can't see how I could ever forget you. You are the prettiest girl I have ever gone out with, and like me, you have your own ideas on what you like. You're funny, smart, good looking and you know Harry and all his friends. In short, you're perfect. So, to answer your question, shouldn't it be me asking you out?"

Lavender laughed as she put her head on his shoulder and sighed. Did she finally find the man of her dreams? They got dressed so Dudley could bring her home and he promised to see her on the train when they left for Hogwarts. Two more days before he would see her again.

Because Of Ron-}

The morning of Dudley's first train ride to Hogwarts was chaotic. It wasn't any of the students that created it, it was Sirius. He was going crazy, making sure that Luna had everything, going through her trunk several times and each time finding what he asked her about. Luna was showing and she had a glow about her that had her feeling good all the time. Sirius was the perfect mate for her. She was the calming influence on his insanity.

They finally had everything packed and left for King's cross Station and the Hogwart's express. Once there and on the platform for Hogwarts, Harry took all three trunks to the train and placed them on the racks overhead in the compartment he selected. He was followed on board by Luna and Dudley, but Luna had to take him on a tour of the train. While they were gone, Hermione, Daphne, Draco and Lavender joined him in the compartment.

Luna and Dudley soon joined them and when he entered the room he found Lavender there and pulled her up into a hug. Every one just watched them as they kissed and then took a seat with Lavender practically sitting on Dudley's lap. He looked down at her hip sitting on his leg and she saw this, "We still have more people going to join us for the trip. I have to leave them room."

"I wasn't complaining, I was just hoping you would get even closer."

"OH, you mean like this?" and she crawled up on his lap.

"That'll work with me. Now, get comfortable." and she did, snuggleing against his chest.

Harry saw the last member of their group enter the platform and he got up to go help her with her trunk.

He got to her and hugged and kissed her and then took her trunk to their compartment and stowed it away. Ginny had to sit close as there was very little room, but heard no complaints from Harry so she stayed where she was. She just got settled when the train began the journey that Dudley was waiting for.

He had all kinds of questions for any who would answer them and he got them from all of the others, not just Harry or Luna. He was becoming one of Harry's gang and he felt proud of the fact that he was so well liked and accepted.

When the cart came around, Harry and Draco bought sweets for everyone and Dudley tasted his first chocolate frog, after Draco kept it from jumping out the window. Dudley now wished he had taken this trip when Harry first took his. He didn't know how Harry's was, but his was just fantastic.

They all asked him what house he wished to be in, and he proudly said "Gryffindor!" They then asked if he did any studying before he left, and he had them ask him questions. Hermione asked him the same question that Snape asked Harry in his first class. "Dudley Where would I find a Bezoar?"

"In the belly of a goat, Hermione." Hermione didn't need to ask anything else as this was a third year question. She knew he was ready for what was coming for his first year.

No one asked him any more questions and the rest of the trip was filled with questions about what to expect for their final year in the school that was their life for six years.

When the train finally pulled up to the Hogsmeade station, Dudley looked around to see where he would be taking Lavender on their first date.
