'Till The End Darling

31. Dulcet tones

Narrators pov:

"Honest mate we wanted to write only-" Ron began

"Only what?" Harry insisted frustratedly.

"Only Dumbledore made us swear not to." Hermione explained.

"Said it was for youre safety" Y/n added.

"Thats nonsense" Harry cried "if were rebelling against Voldermort then surely I should be here. I am the one who fought him, i mean if it weren't for me nobody would even know he was back and not to mention I'm the one who saw Cedric Diggory get murdered"

"Enough Harry!" Y/n shouted. She involuntarily flinched at the mention of Cedric "I think we ought to trust Dumbledores judgement, and anyway youre here now"

"No y/n im sick of it. You've met the Durselys there insufferable. Id rather risk my life here than be there with them"

Just then George and Fred apparated either side of y/n, which gave her quite a fright.

"Hello Harry" they both said.

"Thought we heard youre dulcet tones" Fred started.

"Dont keep it in though mate, I think there's muggles back in Little Winching who couldn't quite hear you." George added which earnt him a smack on the arm from y/n.

"Now if you're all done moaning, how about we listen to something a bit more interesting?" Fred suggested.

"What are you insinuating?" Hermione asked warily.

"I'm not sure this is a good idea" Hermione said as the group of children leaned over the railing. Fred dangled the extendable ear so that the opposite end floated just outside the kitchen door.

"Shh Hermione 'course its a good idea" Ron argued.

"Yeah don't you trust us" Fred and George winked at her. Ron scowled at his brothers flirtatious behaviour.

"Whats going on?" Ginny asked.

"Hey Ginny" Harry smiled.

George was about to say something but y/n shot him a look which told him to keep quiet.

"Is that Snape?" Harry's asked in disbelief.

Y/n lowered her ear to the device and nodded at him.

"You mean Snape is a member of the Order?"

"Yeah mate, he's a right git but Dumbledore seems to want him here" Ron reasoned.

They all flinched away from the extendable ear due to a hissing noise coming from the other end.

"Hermione its Crookshanks" y/n laughed.

"Ugh that horrid thing" Ron chuckled.

"Hes a cat Ronald, he think its food, its in his nature" Hermione retorted.

"A cat" he laughed sarcastically "is that what you call it?"

"Hermione get it off" Fred said pulling on the ear to try rescue it from being Crookshanks dinner.

"Crookshanks...bad Crookshanks..put it down.." Hermione tried to instruct.

But before long her cat had swallowed the entire contraption.
