Love and Other Curses

Tree Huggers {Harry}

You're in the tent with Hermione looking at the maps that she brought. You two are trying to find the best route to find the next Horcrux.

Ron comes in and throws himself on his bed, being the grumpy git he is. You and Mione both roll your eyes at him.

"Well Mione, I need a break. I'll be back in 15."

"Alright," she says before examining her map closer.

You step out into the sunlight and take a deep breath. You see Harry in the distance and head over. As you near him, you see that he's playing with the bracelet he's wearing, AKA the bracelet Ginny gave him with a F/C heart charm on it.

You scowl and walk in a different direction before Harry can see you.

It's not that you don't like Ginny. Ginny is a good girl. What bothered you is that you can't compete. And according to the bracelet worn on Harry's wrist, there is no competition.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You come back to the tent 15 minutes later. You needed that time to cool down.

You step into the tent to see Harry with Mione. Great.

"Y/N, where'd you go?" Harry questions.

"Out."

"Oh. What were you doing?"

"Walking."

"Okay."

He raises an eyebrow at you. You see Harry's hand move and your eyes follow it. He's stroking the heart pendant with his thumb.

This lights a spark of anger inside of you. And to think, you thought you had cooled down.

"Hey Y/N, will you hand me that map?"

"No."

He sighs and reaches over to grab it. His hand brushes your wrist and you glare at it until it's out of sight.

There's a few minutes of tense silence before Harry points at his map and exclaims, "I think we should take this route."

"Oooo, the Chosen One approves. Marvelous."

Mione and Harry both give you a look before Mione examines the map.

"There's a slight problem Harry."

Harry furrows his eyebrows and looks at his map again.

"Where?"

Mione points at the innocent looking phone booth.

"That's a Ministry of Magic entrance."

"Oh, I'm sure the Boy Who Lived can take care of a few Ministry workers."

Harry throws his hands on the table.

"What is your problem?!" he demands.

You look at him and see the fire in his green eyes.

"Me? I don't have a problem. Do you have a problem?"

Ron sits up in his bed.

"Oi! Would you two go yell at each other somewhere else? I'm trying to sleep!"

"Yes Y/N, lets take this outside!"

"I'm good here, thanks."

"For once Ronald is right. Outside, both of you!" Mione says sternly.

"Hey!" Ron mutters as he rolls over.

"But Mione, I don't-"

"Go."
