Harry Potter The Kiss

Chapter 32: Ginny Finds Solace



This thought set Ginny off again, she clung to Harry as the only constant in her life. She now questioned everything she'd ever believed in except Harry Potter! He'd always been there for her, fought a basilisk for her and values honesty above all. He was now married to her best friend but both still wanted her in their lives and that was good enough for her.

Hermione spoke to Winky then introduced Fred and George to Padfoot and Mooney.

Watching the twins chatting with their until now, unknown heroes eased some of the grief in the room. Hermione thought 'life goes on' was one of the most noxious, but also the truest sayings in the English language.

McGonagall contacted Bill to explain what had happened and he would be at Hogwarts in the morning.

Ginny had reduced to sniffles but still clung to Harry as if her life depended on it, Hermione wrapped both of them in a hug as Winky transported the trio directly into the master bedroom in the Gryffindor apartments then left.

Ginny looked about shocked "where are we?"

Hermione answered "this is our bedroom in the castle, you're staying with us tonight Ginny, it's been a really bad day for all of us and no-one's sleeping alone tonight" she led a now even more shocked Ginny into their bathroom to get ready for bed while talking to Harry through the bond

'she's just effectively lost both parents and Ron, it's either this or a dreamless sleep potion in the infirmary, Ginny needs to be held by someone who cares about her and that's you my darling husband'

Harry replied 'are you sure love?'

'Harry, Ginny's a thirteen year old girl who's life has just been shattered! She still gets occasional nightmares over the whole diary thing and right now trusts you and I more than anyone else she knows. She needs to feel wanted for who she is not some piece of meat for auction'

The girls came back into the bedroom with Ginny wearing Hermione's pajamas while she wore a Gryffindor Quidditch top with Potter across the back

"How appropriate Mrs. Potter" joked Harry as he left to change for bed.

When he returned both were in bed waiting with a space left in the centre obviously for him.

He climbed into bed and both girls immediately cuddled tightly into Harry and as the day's events caught up with them started softly crying.

Harry gave them a few minutes before saying 'just my luck, I get two beautiful women in my bed and they both start crying, it's enough to give a bloke a complex!"

The comment earned Harry a dig in the ribs and a slap to the head but the crying stopped and the occasional giggle could now be heard.

"Now these visions of loveliness are laughing at me oh woe!" joked Harry who received no blows but both girls relaxed as they used him for a pillow.

After a few minutes Ginny asked, "Harry what did you do to them?"

So Harry told her.

Emma Granger didn't know what to think, she'd seen the young redhead clinging to Harry and now she was obviously in their bedroom, she was even more puzzled at the riotous laughter that suddenly exploded from the master bedroom, she would be having words with her daughter in the morning.

Marcus Flint's mind was reeling, the chain of events started with the windows exploding in the great hall, then throughout the day owls kept arrived carrying return home messages and it was actually McGonagall who came for him as Snape was lying unconscious in the infirmary.

His father never regained consciousness and he had respectfully waited the 24 hours when goblins arrived and arrested his full family, His mother and sister were led away while he was portkeyed to Azkaban island and now found himself occupying a tiny, cold, damp cell with a stone bench the only furnishing and he could feel the Dementor nearby.

Whoever did this to him was going to pay with their life, just for starters.

Blaise Zabini's journey towards his Azkaban cell mirrored everyone else's but his mind was working on protecting his family.

His father had joined the death eaters out of nessesity rather than any pure blood beliefs.

As the last male Zabini it was his job to preserve the name and heritage but he was far more worried about his mother and three sisters who had been led away.

Blaise wasn't stupid, he knew whoever did this must have immense magical, political and financial power to have both the ministry and goblins behind them.

As the Dementor approached outside the cell Blaise started reliving his greatest fear, standing helpless while his mother and sisters are attacked. He swore an oath this would not happen.

Theodore Nott, like Blaise had surmised that it must be someone powerful to pull this off but unlike Blaise his concern was getting close to this person and either sharing or preferably taking his or her power. He would bide his time

Vincent Crabbe, like his friend Greg Goyle lacked the imagination, among other things to be anything other than a follower.

At this precise moment he hadn't anyone to tell him what to do or think so he lay down on the stone bench and tried to sleep.

Three cells along Gregory Goyle did the same.

Pansy Parkinson was shown into a rather luxurious suite after being separated from her mother and young sister, she was seriously worried.
