Truths
Ron and Hermione got together in the Gryffindor common room.
"Do you have it?" Hermione asked. Ron answered with a nod.
"Good." She pushed him to the stairs so no one would see them getting under Harry´s invisibility cloak. Slowly they made their way to the Portrait hole.
"Now we only have to wait till someone comes in and we be on our way." She whispered. They didn´t have to wait long as the Portrait swung open, and two 3rd years came in. They managed to climb through the hole and made their way to the room of requirement. Harry told them at Dinner they should use his cloak because it would be a long Night and they could all go back to the common room undetected when they were finished. Hermione couldn´t help but notice that Ron was noticeably quiet. When they got to the room, they walked in front of the blank wall three times till the door appeared and they quickly got in. The room was small, and the furniture looked very comfortable. The fire was lit and in front of it were big pillows surrounding a small table decked for tea. Ron pulled the cloak of them and made his way to the fire sitting down and looking into the flames.
"What’s with you?" Hermione asked.
"I don´t know." Ron said.
"Guess I’m just a little nervous about what kind of questions Harry wants to ask us. I´m not sure he completely forgave me for fourth year. You know when I didn´t speak to him because I was jealous. Stupid me - jealous about competing in a tournament. Would it have been me competing, I most certainly would have died." He sighed.
"It will be okay Ronald don´t worry too much. Everything will be alright. You forget that it´s Harry." Ron sighed again.
"Yeah, maybe you´re right. Where is he anyways? He should be here by now." Five minutes later Harry came in. He was breathing heavy and a little bit of sweat run down his face.
"Sorry I´m late. I came as quickly as I could." He walked towards them and sat down on the empty cushion on the floor. He took out the potion bottles and placed them on the table.
"No Problem Harry." Hermione said.
"So, do you want to get started right away?" Ron asked. Harry nodded.
"Who´s first?" Harry looked at them. Hermione took the vail with the clear potion and asked.
"How much do you think I need?" Harry thought about that.
"One sip should be enough this has to last for all of us." Hermione nodded and took a sip of the Potion.
"Alright Mione, first I´m going to asked you a few questions. Try and lie to me. When you answer the first question right, we know it is working. You ready?" Again, Hermione nodded and took a sip from her tea.
"What is the Capital of England?" Harry asked.
"Washington." She answered.
"What´s your favourite subject at School?"
"Flying."
"In which grate did you use the time turner?" Harry asked.
"In third year." She said.
"Alright! let’s start." Harry said. His heart beating a little faster.
"Have you ever wished me any harm?" Hermione looked at him.
"No, I don´t think I have." she answered.
"Did you ever betray my trust in telling someone something I told you in confidence."
"No, I did not but I may said something to Remus ones that I don´t know how you would feel about." She answered. Harry looked at her.
"And what would that be?" He asked.
"I shared with him that I´m afraid that the Dursleys treat you badly. I don´t know that it is happening for sure but I couldn´t help but notice that after every summer you lost a lot of weight. I thought I saw a bruise at your wrist ones but I wasn´t sure. But every start of term you were a little fitchy. You Know you get startled by loud noises and twitch when anyone comes to close." She looked at him with sad eyes.
Ron eyes went a little wider as Hermione talked. Yes, he had noticed Harry was a little weird at the start of the Schoolyears, but he never thought anything off it. Guilt started to form in his stomach. Did Harry´s family abuse him?
"If someone would ask you to watch me and gather information about me even if it concerns my protection. Even if it is someone you trust. Would you do it?" Hermione thought about that for a few seconds.
"No, I don´t think I would. Not without telling you first that is." She answered. Harry smiled.
"Can I trust you? Is there anything that could persuade you to turn your back on me? If someone offered you money, or if someone would take your Parents hostage. Would you betray me?" Again, Hermione thought about it for a few seconds.
"No!" she than answered vehemently.
"But I would expect you to do anything to help me get them back. Even if it would interfere with other plans. I would expect you to drop everything else and help me safe my family even if your life would be in danger. I would die for you if I thought you need my protection. You are like a brother to me. I would demand the same from you." She crossed her arms defensively over her chest.
"I think that is more than fair although I think you know I would do anything in my power to help." At this she visibly relaxed. Harry took the vile with the antidote and handed it to her. She took a small sip and closed the vile.
"That´s all?" she asked. Harry nodded.
"That´s all I need to know " he said and smiled at her fondly.
Harry looked at Ron expectedly. Ron reached for the potion and took a sip. After Harry asked the questions to establish if the potion worked, he looked at Ron and thought about his first question.
"Why didn´t you believe me when I told you I didn´t put my name in the goblet of fire?" Harry asked.
"I don´t really know. There was this rush of jealousy when you came back to the dorms. I got so mad at always being in someone’s shadow. In yours more often than in others. My family is huge. And with Percy and Bill being head boy and Charlie being Quidditch caption the expectations my parents had were always high. It didn´t matter if I did good at School because they already did so well. I am being compared to them constantly and not just to them. To you too." Ron narrowed his eyes as if being ashamed.
"I know I shouldn´t care, I know that, but sometimes I just can´t help it. I always thought I was just born because my parents wanted a daughter. So, I kind of was a disappointment from the start." Harry couldn´t help but to feel sad for his friend.
"You were always popular and you´re rich and famous you were all that I wanted to be. It took me till fifth year to get that being you must be so exhausting. The hole word loves you until you say something, they don´t want to hear. I got so mad when the daily Prophet started ripping you apart. Calling you a liar and a attention seeking lunatic for telling the truth. When Dad got attacked, I realised that having your visions," he paled
"to see what horrible thinks you know who´s doing must be terrifying. To watch him torture and kill people and being unable to do anything about it… and then Sirius died, and it hit me that you would give up all you have and who you are without thinking about it just to have him back. I realised you don´t care about money or fame and you never have. I felt so stupid." He shook his head.
"Did you ever actively do something to harm me?" he asked next.
"No, I´m someone who needs to have his emotions and then when I think about it, I come down and can see the others side. I´m impulsive but I would not wish you harm and NEVER be the one to harm you." Harry smiled satisfied with that answer.
"Is there anything that would make you turn your back on me again? I am willing to forget about it once, but you should know I don´t give third chances. I know money is a sore subject if someone would offer you money, any amount, would you take it and betray me?" Ron shook his head.
"No, I don´t think so. I know IF I would ever need anything, that I can ask you. You would help without question and that fact alone shows me how much you care about our friendship. I would be pretty stupid to throw that away." Harry smiled again.
"Would you leave your family behind and come with me when I need your help?" Harry was a little nervous about that one. Harry knew Hermione would. She told him last year that after Voldemort came back, she obliviated her parents so to not make them targets. She told him she hasn´t seen them since and they now lived in Australia. Harry knew how important Family is for Ron and was surprised when he answered without hesitation.
"Yes, I would. I know you would not ask if it wasn´t to defeat snake face and if I can help rid the world of that bastard so my family is safe I would do it in a heartbeat." Harry was relieved that is exactly what he hoped for. He figured Hermione would be a true friend she never gave him any indication she wouldn´t be. But he was a little afraid that maybe Ron could not get over his jealousy, but it seemed that Ron did a lot of growing up in the past few years. Harry again took the antidote showing he was done with his questions. As Ron took it, he said:
"Thanks a lot, you guys. I´m glad that it is over. Would it be alright if we continue this tomorrow? I´m tired and we have DADA first Period." They agreed under the condition that Harry wouldn´t bail on his promise to answer their questions and together the three of them made their way back to Gryffindor Tower.
