The unlucky lucky man
Arthur Weasley was laid to rest five days after his passing. It was a small ceremony and due to Arthur’s condition, he was burned. They scattered some of his ashes at the burrow, but Hermione had the idea that the rest could be used to make a little diamond which they used for a ring for Molly Weasley. She hadn´t taken it of since the day she got it. She hadn´t done much of anything really. She was trapped in her grief and although all the kids stayed with her, you would find her sitting alone somewhere crying more often than not. After the funeral took place Harry took her and the Weasleys to his properties to look for a new place for them to live. Since Molly didn´t seem to care Harry chose for himself. He gave them the biggest house of course, since the family was so big. The house was not far away from London but it was in a small village with only a few neighbours. Harry had Dobby and Kreacher move everything from the burrow, and they spend the weekend to organizing and decorating the house completely. Every child had his own room, there was even an extra one for one of the twins but they didn´t want it. They were so used to living together that they just didn´t see the point in changing now so Harry took the room for himself. They were planning to spend winter break there and thought that he could use it if he wanted a little bit of privacy. Dobby had another bed in the room so Dudley would have a place to sleep as well.
Harry and Hermione went back to Hogwarts after the weekend. They had two weeks until class was out. Ron and Ginny stayed with Molly, and they would stay there until after the holidays. Harry hated to admit it, but he was glad that he was back. He missed Severus terribly and he just had to get away for a little while. He loved the Weasleys with all of his heart, but it was such a difficult time for them and although he felt like a part of the family, he thought they needed a little time to themselves. The first day back in classes was hard. He had problems concentrating and having Severus yell at him in class was never fun, but it was worse now. Dumbledore had called the two of them into his office that evening and although Harry suspected that the old man had nothing to do with Arthur´s death he loathed being in his company so much so that he just walked out after fifteen minutes. When Hermione caught up with him, she berated him for his carelessness.
“As soon as you left, he started asking questions Harry. What were you thinking? If he wasn´t suspicious before he sure is now.”
“I wasn´t thinking, okay? I just couldn´t stand being around him. He gives me the creeps and I don´t want to talk to him.”
“I get that Harry, I do, but nothing has changed. He can´t find out and now he will be keeping an even closer eye on us.”
“We will handle it. Can we drop it now?”
“Fine!” Hermione snapped at him, and they walked to the Dungeons in silence. Severus waited for them, and Harry threw himself into his lovers’ arms. Hermione went straight to her room without a word and closed the door a little more forcefully then usual.
“What´s with her?” Severus asked.
“She´s mad at me and she is in the right. I will talk to her later.”
“What happened.”
“Nothing really. I walked out on the headmaster without explanation. I just… Sitting there with him felt so… dishonest somehow. I couldn´t stand it so I left. When she called me out I snapped at her. Like I said it was nothing really. We all are on edge. I will clear this up later.” He pulled away from Severus and took a seat on the couch.
“How are you holding up?”
“Not good. None of us are. You saw the Weasleys at the funeral. They are broken and it will take time to heal for sure. I´m just glad they don´t know the details. I swear if I´m right and Percy is behind this I will kill him myself.” In that moment the door to Hermione´s room flew open again and she starred at him angrily.
“You will do no such thing. I get the impulse, but this is not your decision, and you can´t just bend the laws as you see fit. Not yet.”
“What do you mean not yet?”
“I mean if you want to go after him or anyone you have to do it the right way. You took the first step in the right direction already. You made contact to the minister. You alone can change any laws if you want. With your political standing you are able to bring any existing law to the Wizengamot and you have enough votes to dismantle every one of them but, you need one other member to second you. The minister of magic is the perfect candidate. If you two works together you can change our entire world and that is what we need. So, you can´t go around and play executioner just because you feel like it.”
“She´s right love. If you want to change our ways you will have to be the one to life by example.”
“Yeah, your right I know you are. It´s just… I´m so angry.” At that Hermione´s eyes softened, and she came over to sit next to him. She took his hand and waited until he looked at her.
“We all are Harry. This war has been going on for too long and has taken too much from everyone already. The constant fear, the always looking over your shoulder and that you never know who you can speak freely around just because there is one wizard who thinks he is better then anyone. We are all angry, and scared. We will end this war; I know we will I just don´t know how yet.”
“I have an idea.” Severus said.
“What do you mean?” Harry asked.
“I wanted to tell you right after but I didn´t want to make things worse. After the last order meeting when I came back from headquarters, I went to see Albus. I told him how devastated everyone was, and I told him that you broke down after everyone else was asleep. I screamed at him for putting me into the position to comfort you and told him that there is no way in hell that you would succeed in defeating the dark lord. He told me that he has no doubt that you will live through this war and when I asked him why he just… told me. He has known how to destroy the dark lord for five years and he decided to do nothing about it.”
“How? How do I do it?”
“Voldemort created horcruxes.”
“What are horcruxes?” Hermione ask but Harry already knew. Since he got the gift of knowledge, he was suddenly familiar with things he had never heard before.
“Horcruxes are objects where one conceals a part of his soul. Killing rips your soul apart. If you kill someone just for the sake of killing a part of your soul severs from the rest and with a spell the caster can transfer that part into any common object. If your body is killed, you live on. That´s why he didn´t die when he came to Godric´s hollow or back in first year when I killed Quirrel! That son of a bitch. But how did Dumbledore find out?”
“Tom Riddles diary was a horcrux. He recognized it at ones when you brought it to him. He had an old college Horace Slughorn who was close to Riddle when he was at school and after talking to him, and by talking, I mean use legilimency he found out that Riddle wanted to create seven. Seeing how his appearance changed over the decades I say he succeeded.”
“Does he have any clue what they are?”
“He does and he also knows where most of them are but he hasn´t retrieved any of them.”
“And how does he plan for me to find and destroy them when he doesn´t tell me that they exist?”
“He plans to tell you once you leave school. What he is not going to tell you is that you are one of them.” Hermione shrieked and Harry had the feeling to hit the ground any second.
“What?”
“I am so sorry Harry, but the night Riddle came to kill you a part of his soul vexed itself on you when his body was destroyed.”
“So, I have to be destroyed as well?” Harry asked, he was shaking and all colour had left his face.
“I don´t think so and neither does Dumbledore. His plan is for you to go sacrifice yourself but when Riddle kills you, he thinks he will destroy the horcrux instead. I am not willing to take that risk and I have been looking into solutions. I think a purifying draught will be sufficient, but it has to be a strong one and so far, I only found references and theories. I promise you that we will figure it out.”
“Soon, I hope. Hey! That’s why I can´t keep him out of my head isn´t it?”
“Yes, I believe so. But Harry, I´m afraid that you have to wait until the baby is born. A purifying draught is designed to destroy anything that isn´t 100% you. If you take it while your pregnant it will kill the baby instantly.”
“Oh god! I´m so glad that I have you, you know that?”
“I can imagine.” Severus said with a smile.
“So, we gather the horcruxes, wait until Harry gave birth, destroy them all at ones in hopes that it will weaken the dark lord as much as possible and then we move in with all the force we have. Have I got it right?” Hermione asked.
“That sounds like a good plan. If we make the first move, we have the element of surprise and when we act quickly this war could be over fast and hopefully without casualties on our site.” Severus said and the first time in his 37 years of life he was hopeful that things would be okay. That he would be happy and alive living his life with his kid, Harry and his friends and family.
Two days later Harry was ready to hex every single student at Hogwarts. He and Hermione couldn´t go anywhere without being harassed by people who wanted to know what had happened and they got actually angry when they didn´t give them any details. He had called for a DA meeting two days after Arthur died and had told them what had happened. But he, Hermione, Severus, Tonks, Bill and Kingsley where the only people that knew the tragic end of him. They avoided the great hall all together at lunch and dinner time and only went to breakfast to make sure all mail came directly to them.
On his third day back, Harry spotted Hedwig and after looking at the envelope he quickly put it into his pocket to read at a later time. Hermione looked at him and he shook his head. He felt a pair of eyes on him but he couldn´t say from which direction so he just concentrated on the food and left quickly after finishing his plate. Hermione followed him and Harry asked the castle for a quick entrance to the chamber of secrets. A door appeared in front of them, and they hurried inside. Harry made his way to Slytherins office and after making a fire they sat down in front of the fireplace and Harry pulled out the letter.
“It´s from Scrimgeour.” Harry told her and opened the envelope. He help the paper to the fire so they could read it together.
Lord Potter,
I was surprised when I received your letter seeing that I am in office for over a year now. After careful consideration I came to the decision that it is in my best interest to at least hear you out. I´m afraid that I won´t be able to make it before Christmas but I think I could meet you on December 29th. I think it would be wise to meet away from the public so we can talk securely but I hope you understand that I will be accompanied by one of the aurors for my protection. Seeing that Mrs. Tonks was the one to connect us I think she is a good choice. Just tell her when and where we should meet with you and your confidant, and we will be there.
Sincerely,
Rufus Scrimgeour
Minister of magic
“That´s good.”
“Yeah, I hope he isn´t to mad that Tonks is one of mine as well.”
“Who else do you want to be there.”
“I´m not sure yet. You or Severus. You would be great because you know a lot more about politics then I do but I think Sev would make the bigger statement. Scrimgeour knows that he is a spy and if he sees that he is on my site I think it would go a long way.”
“I get that. I would say just bring the both of us. If he´s smart that won´t be the reason he walks away.”
“Yeah, your probably right. I will think about it.”
“We have to go Harry; transfiguration starts in five minutes.” Harry nodded and they made their way to class.
Time flew by quickly and before Harry knew it, he was sitting in the infirmary for a check-up before he left for break. He was a little over two months now and poppy told him that she would make the first ultrasound today. Harry was a little bumped that Severus couldn´t be there because he had a staff meeting.
“Are you ready to see your baby?” Poppy asked with a smile.
“Yes, I am.” He said and Poppy cast a spell pocking his stomach with her wand gently. Harry gasped when an image appeared in front of them, and he could hear a little heart pounding inside of him but he wasn´t sure how to read the ultrasound. Suddenly he heard a gasp and when he looked at the medi witch she had a deep frown on her face.
“What´s wrong? Is something wrong with the baby?” He asked and felt panic rise in him.
“No, nothing wrong, just something very unusual. Here…” She pointed at a certain area.
“This is your uterus. And here is the baby.” She pointed at it and as soon as he saw it his brows furrowed.
“But… there is another one that looks just like that.”
“Yes, Harry there is. It looks like you are expecting twins.”
“Twins? Like in two babies? How? How didn´t we know until now?”
“I didn´t check on it. There has never been a male twin pregnancy. When I tested for the gender, I only picked one up, so I figured there was only one in there.”
“So, it´s either two boys or two girls?”
“Yes, I´m sorry Harry but I just didn´t know this is possible.”
“Holy shit!”
“I know this must be a lot.”
“A lot? Finding out I´m having a baby at seventeen was a lot this is earth shaking. Two babies?”
“Yes, Harry. You are having two babies.”
“I´m sorry Poppy I have to go. I don´t want to miss the train. If you see Severus, please tell him to meet me at headquarters tonight.”
“I will tell him, don´t worry.”
“Thank you.” Harry said and left his head spinning wildly.
“Twins?” Hermione asked wide eyed after Harry had told her the news. Harry only nodded weakly.
“Nothing is never normal with you, is it?” Hermione asked but gave him a smile.
“Obviously.” He said and Hermione giggled.
“What?” He asked.
“Nothing, it´s just funny. You sound more like Severus every day. Be careful not to do it in front of the headmaster he will pick up on that.”
“Oh, right. But it is isn´t it? I´m a freak show, and I can´t do anything about it. It´s not like I wanted to be the fucking boy who lived or speaking parseltounge and now this.”
“I wouldn´t call you a freak show but you certainly are the most interesting person I know, and I know Luna Lovegood.” She said giggling.
“Very funny.”
“Oh, come on Harry. This isn´t the end of the world. I always wanted twins. You can dress them in matching close and it will be so fun to see how they are similar and how they are different.”
“I know, I will love them to death but it´s just a lot. With everything else going on you have to give me that. I am allowed to have a reaction to life changing news.”
“Of course, you are Harry, and I´m not saying that you aren´t but you need a more positive view on things. Yes, our lives are complicated and dangerous and unpredictable really, but be honest that is the fun of it. You and Ron taught me that in first year. You never know what will happen. We lived that life for how many years now? I know it´s exhausting and tearing on the emotions but, it also brought us to where we are now. If only one thing would have been different who knows what our lives would be like. I for one are happy that my friends are my family and that we fight for what is just and what is right together. I wouldn´t change a thing. Yes, it´s sad that we lost people we love but it also always brings us closer together and closer to our goals.”
“Yeah, yeah I know.”
“Good, so chin up and try to embrace what you have.”
“I will. Thank you.”
“Your very welcome Harry. And just know that you mustn´t do it all alone. You have a village to help and if need look after you. Don´t worry. We got you.”
“Alright, that’s enough unless you want to have a sobbing hormonal man to deal with.” Harry said and gave her a hug.
“Is Draco coming too?”
“Not yet. He went to headquarters to stay with his mum. I don´t know if Ginny told Molly yet but we will go meet them at Christmas. I told Narcissa that I want a little Christmas celebration for the DA members at noon so, she´s been planning it with Dobby. The two of them made up can you believe it. Narcissa actually apologized to him for treating him so badly and she had a bunch of socks for him which he was so happy about.” Harry laughed and remembered how thrilled Dobby was when he told him. He actually had asked him to spend one day a week at headquarters to help his old mistress which Harry was only too happy to allow. Although Dobby was a free elf his loyalty to Harry was so strong that he wouldn´t do anything Harry didn´t want. Harry was so fond of the little elf that he counted him as one of his closest friends and he knew just how much he mend to him.
Harry was glad to see that the Weasleys were faring a little better. Sure, everyone was still very sad, but they had left the trance like state and had started to communicate their grieve to each other. As soon as they came in Molly hurried to hug him and Hermione and told them with a little smile that she was very glad that they were back home. Harry held on to her for a little while and a few tears escaped his eyes. When Molly Weasley hugged him, it truly felt like a mother hugging her son and it always overwhelmed him to see just how much love she had to give to anyone who needed it. Ron was the next who pulled him into an embrace and Harry told him how sorry he was over and over again. When they last saw him, he had still been in the state of shock and they weren´t able to reach him at all. Now that it had worn off all the emotions had come at ones, but Harry was glad to see it. He had been very worried for his friend. He knew how much it could destroy you to keep such feelings within you and was happy to see that he broke. As strange as it sounded, he knew that Ron would be okay. It would take time for him to be happy again, but he would be and in Harry´s book, that was all that mattered.
The three of them and Ginny went to Ron´s room to sit and talk for a while. Harry told Ron that he would meet with Cho the next day to bring her here and Ron gave him a thankful smile.
“She was devastated that she couldn´t be there for you but I explained to her that we told Dumbledore that you two are together and she understood. She wasn´t happy though and she gave me a letter for you which she wants you to read every time you need her, and she can´t be there.”
“That´s so sweet.” Ron said when Harry gave him the letter.
“Yeah, she´s a great girl. I´m glad that she´s with you.”
“You didn´t seem to think that after you went out with her.” Ginny teased him.
“Well, I was stupid wasn´t I? Not because I wanted to be with her but because I didn´t see why we wanted to be together. After Cedric´s death the only reason she wanted to be with me is because she wanted to feel close to him. I was there when he died so I was the closest thing to him, and I only wanted to be with her because I felt that I have to make… something… up to someone and I didn´t know how. Yes, we liked each other before that and maybe it could have worked out between us if Cedric hadn´t died but after it happened there was just no way it could ever work. That doesn´t mean she´s a bad person.”
“It wouldn´t have worked out mate, your gay.” Ron said.
“I don´t know about that. I didn´t fall in love with Severus because he´s a man. I fell for him because once we got past all the shit, he was there for me. He helped me and encouraged me, and he was just great. Sure, there was always something between us and looking back maybe it was sexual attraction, but I really did like Cho. When I first met her in third year, she took my breath away. When I talked to her, I was nervous and excited at the same time and that is exactly how it felt with Sev. I think I fall for a person’s personality and not for gender.”
“But if you think about it. They are pretty similar. Both are slim, light skinned with dark hair and dark eyes. They are both smart and talented, sure in different fields but talented non the less. I can see a pattern there.” Hermione said smiling.
“You never told us how you and Severus became closer.” Ginny said.
“Well, one night when we came back from diagon alley I had a vision. I stayed behind to talk to him and kind of broke down. He comforted me and I cried myself out on his shoulder. When he pulled away, I asked him if we could stay like this for a while and we fell a sleep on the couch. When I woke up, I was still in his arms, and he looked me in the eyes. It was so intense, and we were so close it almost hurt so I tried to look away but he wouldn´t let me. I think I fell in love then and there. There was something in his eyes that pulled me in and once I was in I didn´t ever want to leave. It was the first time in my life I truly felt seen.”
“That´s so romantic.” Hermione gushed and Harry felt a blush on his cheeks.
“When was your first kiss?” Ginny asked.
“Well thanks to you guys our what would have been first kiss was interrupted. It was just before the warding when you guys went to Gryffindor tower to pack your stuff. He asked me if I wanted to talk a bit and we ended up having a very heavy conversation. He told me about his time at school, his family and home life and why he joined the dark lord. After all that I told him that he is not a bad person and he told me that I´m strange. Then he was about to kiss me when you guys knocked. He apologized when we were in the chamber, and I told him that he shouldn´t worry about it. I couldn´t hide that I was hurt though and after I told him that I wanted him to kiss me and was actually disappointed that we were interrupted we kissed, and it was just… something else.”
“You two really are sweet but you were dens both of you. We knew you loved each other when we were at Diagon alley, and you bought him all that potion stuff. Back when he used to berate you, he was right on one thing. You wore your emotions on your sleeve. And it was so obvious with him too. I think you broke something in him that needed desperately to be broken and ones it did it was so easy to see. Good thing that you both have the reputation off hating each other because only hate is as strong as love. People who know you are together see the fire in your eyes as it is love but people who don´t know see pure hate.” Ron said and Harry laughed.
“Yeah, we were stupid weren´t we? Good thing we got it together.”
“You should tell them your news.” Hermione said and grinned at him. Harry starred at her and shook his head. That witch would rob him of his last nerve someday.
“What news?” Ron asked.
“Well… arghh I had my check up with Poppy today and it seems like I´m… I´m having twins.”
“Really?” Ginny squealed and jumped up from the bed.
“Yes, really.”
“Oh, that’s so great. Twins, I can´t believe it.”
“Well believe it because that’s what it is.”
“What did Severus say?” Ron asked.
“He doesn´t know yet. He had to go to a staff meeting so he couldn´t be there. I will meet him at headquarters tonight.”
“Uhhh, can we be there? I want to see his face when he finds out.” Ginny said laughing.
“I don´t know you guys.”
“Come on please. It would be a good opportunity to tell mum as well. You really have to tell her. She really needs some good news right now.”
“I think that´s a bad idea Ron. She is grieving her husband, I really don´t think this is the right time.”
“Sure, it is.”
“No, I´m not telling her today.”
“Fine, can we at least come to see Draco. We let you and Severus talk alone. I think mum could use some company and Remus and Narcissa would be happy to see her.”
“Sure.”
“Good let’s go and help mum with dinner.” Ginny said and they left for downstairs.
Remus was thrilled when the group came through the front door. He quickly gave his pseudo godson a hug and the wolf in him frowned at the different sent it detected. He didn´t pay it too much attention because there were a lot of people who waited to be welcomed. He took a pot of delicious smelling food from Molly and led them in the kitchen where Draco and Narcissa had a cup of tea.
“Hey guys, I wasn´t expecting to see you here today.” Draco said smiling and gestured to the chairs.
“Hey Draco, I have to talk to Severus about an assignment he is meeting me here later.”
“Great I can tell him what I want for Christmas then.”
“You tell him what you want?”
“Yeah, when I was little, he told me to. He wants to get me something that I really want.”
“What do you want this year?”
“A book about potions. It´s what I wish for every year. I have quite the collection of all kinds of rare potions and ingredients.”
“Can I read them?” Hermione asked.
“Sure, I have them here I can give you a few and you bring them back when your through.”
“Thank you that´s great. Maybe there is something in there that we can use.”
“You know what? I bet there is. Tell you what. I will give you half and read the other again then we switch and come together after to find out what we found.”
“That’s a deal. How many do you have?” They went on talking about different authors and themes and Harry zoned out. Remus watched him intently. Something was different about his cup, and he was going to find out what it is. Everyone was looking up when Severus walked into the kitchen.
“Hey, I wasn´t expecting quite as many of you here. Did something happen?”
“No, don´t worry Severus, we are just here for a visit.” Molly told him.
“Good, you wanted to talk to me?” He asked Harry.
“Yes, let’s go next door so we can speak privately. This just concerns you.” Harry said and together they left.
“I´m want tell mum Ginny.” Ron whispered.
“I really think that it would help her a lot through the grieve. I don´t understand why Harry doesn´t want to tell her.”
“He probably thinks he helps her by keeping it from her. How would you feel if someone would rub their happiness in your face when you just got knocked to the ground?”
“I get that, but you now mum. She would burry herself in making baby cloth and picking out toys and stuff. She lives for that kind of stuff.”
“I know, but you can´t do it Ron. It´s not your place to tell anyone. It´s Harry´s and Severus´s. You know how mad Harry will be if you do it.”
“I know but ones he sees how much good it does her he won’t care anymore.”
“I can´t stop you if you really want to do it but consider yourself warned. He will not take this well and neither will Severus or Hermione. Hell, I´m not on board with this so if you do it you will have to bear there anger alone.” Ginny said and left to sit with Draco. She watched as the resolve on Ron´s face hardened and shook her head. Her brother just was an idiot sometimes and more often than not he messed things up all by himself. She knew Harry wouldn´t stay mad for long but in her mind, Ron had no right to tell something so personal without permission.
Meanwhile Harry stood in the living room looking at his lover nervously. He needed to tell him but was at a loss to how. The words just didn´t want to leave his mouth as Severus looked at him expectantly. After five minutes passed Severus became very nervous and decided to start the conversation since Harry seemed stuck.
“Harry? What´s wrong.”
“Noth… Nothings wrong, just… you know I had my check up today, right?” He waited until Sev nodded before going on.
“Poppy discovered something unusual…”
“Is the baby alright?” Severus asked and quickly went over to lay his hand on his belly.
“Yes, it´s fine but it´s also two.”
“What do you mean it´s two?”
“I mean there are two, babies I mean.” Severus opened his mouth to say something, but words failed him. He just stood there, mouth agape starring at him in utter disbelieve. He paled considerably and Harry could just stand there and watch as he fell down completely out of it.
“Severus!” Harry yelled a little too loudly and quickly kneeled down next to him. He took out his want and murmured enervate and watched as his eyes opened again. The occupants in the other room hurried to the door when they heard Harry call out and watched as Harry pulled the man to his feet.
“What happened?”
“He just fainted.”
“He fainted? Why?”
“Probably because of the baby.” Ron said into the silence. Harry´s head flew around, and he looked at the red head.
“Ron, don´t!” Ginny said.
“What baby? Severus are you pregnant?” Molly asked confused.
“No, I am not.” Severus said through his teeth trying to keep from yelling.
“Then what baby?” Molly asked.
“Harry´s baby mum, or should I say babies?” Ron said casually.
“Ron!!” Hermione yelled.
“What the hell Ron? What do you think you´re doing?”
“She had to find out at some point Harry, what´s the big deal? I really think she needs this!”
“What´s the big deal? Are you kidding me? You had no right to do what you just did. I can´t even look at you right now.” Harry spat and turned away from him. Remus looked from Harry to Severus and back trying to comprehend what was being said and he quickly grabbed on to the couch when the knut finally dropped.
“I don´t understand. Why would Severus faint because Harry is…” Molly stopped mid-sentence when she looked at Harry´s face.
“No, Severus you did not.” She whispered. Nobody answered her. In just a few seconds Molly had pulled her wand and it was pointed at Severus threadedly.
“Come down Molly, you don´t want to do something you later regret.”
“You are a sick. How could you? He´s a child.”
“I´m not a child and I would appreciate it if you would lower your wand. This is my house, and you will not threaten Severus as long as I am here.” Harry said coldly.
“You, Harry, get away from him. You don´t know what this man has done to you.”
“I don´t know? Really? I told you what happened while I was living with the Dursley´s right? And you think I don´t know what abuse is? I am seventeen. I am a legal adult not a child and Severus is my partner, not my rapist and now lower your wand.” Harry said.
“What have you done to him heh? What kind of spell do you have put on him?” Molly yelled and that was the moment Ron Weasley realized what he had just done. He had pushed his emotionally fragile mother over the edge.
“How dare you woman!” Severus yelled and pulled his wand himself. Harry tried to talk him down while prying him back gently. He knew Severus would never hurt him so as long as he was in the way he wouldn´t cast anything.
“Mom, listen Harry isn´t under any kind of spell.”
“And how would you now Ronald? You know I really was surprised Severus to see you together with the kids. That you joined the DA even though you hated them all since the first time you laid eyes on them. And I asked you to go with them to Italy? Is that when you seduced my poor boy? A boy half your age!”
“Yes, I got pregnant when we were away but he didn´t seduce me it was the other way around. You don´t know what happened since the school year started so don´t presume to know what my relationship with him is like. Is that what you wanted Ron? What did I ever do to you? Do you hate Severus so much that you want to get him killed?”
“Of course not, Harry! He is my friend don´t you even think that!”
“Yeah, and a great friend he has in you. I told you this is a mad idea. She is not in the emotional state to handle something like this but you just didn´t want to listen.”
“And I warned you, you idiot! Look what you have done.”
“I´m sorry okay! How was I supposed to know that she would react like that?”
“Common sense you neanderthal!” Hermione spat angrily. While they were yelling at each other Molly Weasley tried to get around Remus and Narcissa who had sprang into action when Severus pulled his wand. She pushed them out of the way and send a slashing hex at Severus just after Harry turned around and stepped in front of him to tell them they should just leave. Everyone watched in horror as the spell hit Harry´s back. His skin was covered with big slashes that were deep enough to bleed badly and Harry wavered on his feet. Severus caught him before he hit the ground and that was when panic broke lose. Molly shrieked and her hands flew to her mouth. Her wand fell to the ground, and she started shaking and crying. Hermione and Ginny ran to Severus site to help him with Harry. Ron stood there in shock a terrified look on his face. Narcissa and Draco had their hands full with a wild Lupin who was about to jump Molly and Severus couldn´t stop the tears that were running down his face as he looked at the man he loved so deeply. Hermione quickly pulled out her fake galleon and send a message to all of the DA to come to headquarters at once. She just hadn´t the time to sent it to individual people so she just send:
SOS, headquarters, NOW!
McGonagall and the other Weasleys arrived first took in the situation and sprang to action. Bill, Charlie and Fleur hurried to help the Malfoy´s with Remus. A Werewolf is dangerous and ones the wolf is out it is hard to calm him down even when it isn´t full moon. Tonks, Kingsley, Poppy, Neville and Luna came running in next.
“What the hell happened?”
“Ron just needed to act like a thoughtless idiot again. Luna run up and get a pot of hot water. Neville go step in for Draco, I need him to fetch some potions. Severus go with him we will need a blood slowing potion as quick as possible and we don´t have that one. You need to make it and quickly.”
“I can´t leave him like this, I won’t!”
“Severus!”
“No, I will not leave his site do you hear me!”
“Fine, Draco! I need you in the lab NOW! This has to be quick. These wounds are tricky to heal, and he can´t bleed out!”
“I´m on it!” Draco yelled and sprinted to the cellar.
“Fred! George, thank god that you´re here. Go to the lab and help Draco. Also talk to Poppy and bring up any potion she tells you too.” The twins nodded and disappeared. Kinsley and Tonks had succeeded in prying Remus back into the kitchen and had warded the door. They quickly put-up protecting spells and let Remus go wild. He destroyed the kitchen completely before his temper finally calmed down. Luckily no one was hurt by the raging man wolf and after they were sure he had let it all out they lifted the spells and helped him fix the kitchen. Severus had carried Harry up the stairs and into his bedroom. Hermione went ahead and opened the door for him. He gently lay Harry down on his stomach before kicking of his boots and getting onto the bed himself. Luna came in with warm water and a cleaning potion. He carefully cut through Harry´s jumper until they could pull it from his body. They then carefully washed out the wounds with cloths when Poppy hurried in. In her arm she had a few blood refreshener, mild pain potions that wouldn´t harm the child and several different healing potions. They would have to wake Harry soon so that he could take the potions, so she placed them all on the nightstand in the correct order. Hermione cried silently while she worked on the wounds.
“He´s going to be okay isn´t he? And the babies too?”
“They should be fine if we get that blood slowing potion into him quickly. The blood refreshener can only do so much and since he his pregnant we can give him only four. As soon as the wounds are cleaned up, we will cover them up and put pressure on it that should slow the bleeding down long enough for the potion to cool down.” Poppy tried to reassure her.
“I hope they don´t screw it up. It´s a hard potion, one you don´t learn in school but when you study for your mastery.” Severus told them.
“Then go help them!” Poppy said.
“No, I can´t, I won´t.”
“I will go and read them the steps as they do them. I will send Ron up to help. I know you´re mad at him Severus but he got us into this mess now let him help get us out of it.”
“Fine, but don´t expect me to like it.”
“I wouldn´t, believe me. He hasn´t heard the end of it. I will put him in his place as soon as Harry is stable.”
“Do that, and tell that redhaired witch to stay away from this room. I´m not sure I will be able to control myself should I see her as long as Harry is still in this state. We don´t want any more accidents.”
“I will, she won’t come up. I can send Remus though, right? I bet he´s anxious to see his cup.”
“Yes, do that.” Hermione nodded and left.
“Oh Harry, I didn´t even get to tell you that I´m good with the twins. I was so overwhelmed when you told me, scared but so happy. I love you so much. You will be as good as new in no time. I´ll take care of you and our babies. Don´t worry, that was the last time someone gets to hurt you. I will never let it happen again. You are mine and I am yours like you said, always.” Severus murmured in his ears. He couldn´t describe the feeling that overcame him when that spell hit his Harry. His heart felt like bursting, all the air left his lungs, and he thought the world would end right there.
“Thank god he got hit in the back, I can only imagine what could have happened when he were too got hit in the stomach.” Poppy said shaking by the thought. Unlucky that he got hit at all but very lucky indeed.
