Harry Potter: Taking Control. [Archived]

15. The Last Week of Summer. (Mature)

Since returning from St. Mungos Hospital and being trapped at the Burrow Jackson tended not to leave Rons room or the teens side, as the after effects of the kidnapping began to creep in he tended to remain silent when with a group of people whispering or murmuring a conversation with Ron to this Hermione, generally ignored since the start of Jacksons stay snapped as she heard Jackson murmuring about Ron's finished homework "HA, finished, as if he finished his work, I recon you did it you freak, what did Ron offer, to blow you, maybe let you take his virginity just to get out of work, he's to lazy to be competent and to not find a way round working properly, is that is HARRY, did he let you fuc-" before Hermione could finish Jackson slapped her off the chair she was on and knelt beside the girl "if you ever suggest Ron would manipulate someone or use sex to get his way again, I will personally rip out your teeth and make you swallow them. Further, Granger, if you talk to me that way again, if you suggest I'd do anything like that, if you deny what's in front of you we're gonna have a worse problem, have you ever stopped and questioned any book or any authority, because they can be wrong, Humans can always be wrong and books are written by humans not Gods, did you ever think just because you can quote a book you weren't that smart, Ron not only managed to finish his homework, he took the method I taught him and improved it beyond what even you consider perfect, and given you have held Ron and I's homework for years, I think it's good to get away from you, the girl so bent on being the next Genius of the millennia she'd happily sacrifice anyone else's schooling, I have news for you, you're not special, you have nothing important about you, nothing, you're socially awkward, you flaunt your 'superiority' so much everyone hates you, me and Ron were the only two who'd even talk properly to you, and you don't even have that anymore. Ron is kind, intelligent, caring, a brilliant thinker and tactician, and is someone I'd trust with my life in a second, you're nothing compared to him, I think he summed it up that day In first year, 'you're a nightmare honestly'" he growled before standing and striding from the room up to Rons.

Ron entered a few minutes later seeing Jackson sat with Onyx resting on his chest, Ron moved to sit by Jackson and tugged the teens head onto his shoulder "just ignore her, we've known she's not the best for us, nearly all our fights were made worse by her if you think back properly, I admit I'm an idiot sometimes" Jackson snorted "but, I didn't want to tell you this, before all this happened but things like fourth year or any other 'strop' I've had, Granger would fuel my idiotic rage and jealousy, saying how 'he'd probably gotten Dumbledore or someone to place his name in and it's all an act' in fourth year, I-I wasn't thinking clearly and I believed her, I know I shouldn't but I did, she's a bitch desperate to be seen as the best person alive, to prove herself over others, she a cow" Ron uttered Jackson hummed in agreement, the pair spent much of that day relaxing together.

There was meant to be 3 days left until the group left on the 1st for Hogwarts, there was until a second Hogwarts letter arrived to all Wizarding families attending the school:

-

Dear all,

Due to security concerns the Start of Term shall commence Midnight on August 30th Rather than the typical 1st of September, this means that to catch the Hogwarts express families must be at Platform 9 3/4 at 10PM August 30th,

Thank You All

Albus Dumbledore.

It was the 29th meaning that at 10PM the following day would be the day all Hogwarts students would have to make there way to the platform, Jackson rolled his eyes while reading "what not good enough Potter" Granger spoke, Jackson snorted at the level the girl had resorted to, it was as if it were primary school not nearing Wizarding adulthood the teen soon vanished the letter with a sigh as a knock sounded on the Burrow's door, soon Amelia Bones was entering with Tonks beside her "Lord Peverell-" she began "Jackson, please, I dislike my formal title" Jackson but in
