Renewing What He Lost - ON HOLD

Chapter 8- The DA of the Past

I DONT OWN ANY OF THIS, ITS ALL JK ROWLINGS!!! if only...

Please review!!!

All he saw was black. He could feel some people on the side of them but his body was still in some slight pain from what he didn't remember right now.

There was a Hogmeade Trip.

 Then Deatheaters attacked.

He duelled Belltrix Lestrange, Sirius' killer.

After that all he could recall was blinding pain.  The Cruciatus Curse! That's why he feels like he was just run over by a car. Now that Harry could remember how he was hurt, he wanted to get back into consciousness to talk to Ron and Hermione.

Slowly, Harry tried to open his eyes to very little sucess. Pushing himself harder he opened them a fraction and saw a blurry whiteness above him. "Harry!" A distant voice said frantically.

Harry groaned and tried to open his eyes again, and this time they allowed him. Everything was blurry until someone put his glasses on his face. As everything came into view he saw his two best friends sitting in the chairs beside the bed

"Hey mate. You okay?" Ron asked tentatively. Trying to use a bit of humor to loosen the tension in the room, Harry replied "Yeah Ron, never felt better."

It worked instantly and the tension was eased. Hermione smiled shakily and said "Are you really okay Harry?"

"Yeah, I'm fine Mione" Harry said half truthfully. Seeing them look tired he asked "Did you guys get hurt?"

Ron held up his wrist that had a brace around it and said "Just a sprain. Madam Pomfrey gave this to me because she thought it would heal better naturally."

Looking towards Hermione she said "No, but I do have a few nasty bruises." Just then Harry a blue and black bruise on the side of her face. Harry inhaled sharply and asked "How'd you get that?"

Surprising Harry, she smiled and pointing to it she said "That, oh a certain death eater didn't like getting out-duelled by a girl. A muggleborn no less. Guess what Ron did after that?"

Harry had no idea so he said that he didn't know and noticed that Ron was blushing slightly but pleased none the less. Hermione leaned forward and said excitedly "He totally kicked his arse."

Harry raised his eyebrows at her swearing but didn't say anything.

"That's right." A voice said near the door. Harry turned his head to the right and saw Lily standing there looking awkward at the doorway. Harry smiled and said "Hi Lily."

She smiled back shyly and asked "Are you okay?"

Replying Harry said "Yeah. Just tired." As soon as he sais this Madam Pomfrey came bustling in and asked "Are you okay?"

Harry replied what felt like for the twentieth time today and said "I'm fine." Madam Pomfrey smiled back and said "Of course you are sweety."

Then the Marauders strolled in and waved to Harry as they walked over to him bed. 

"You okay?" They asked in unison. Harry just nodded. He saw Sirius nudge James while looking at him pointedly. James cleared his throat and said "You were really good."

Awkward silence.

Remus and Lily looked like they wanted to be doing anything else. James and Sirius looked awkward. Peter looked like he wanted to be sleeping. And Ron, Hermione, and Harry just felt amused when they surveyed the people in front of them.

Harry unable to stand the silence asked "You're wondering how I duelled that deatheater." It seemed like a question, but if you listened carefully you could hear the statement in it.

They all nodded awkwardly. Glancing at Ron and Hermione who were smiling slightly at Harry he replied "Let's just say that I've had practice."

They looked like they wanted to ask more questions but Ron's stomach gave a loud grumble. Blushing Ron said that he was going to go to lunch and started to stand when Harry suggusted that they all go to lunch and meet up with him later.

"But Harry," Hermione protested. Raising a hand Harry silenced her and replied "Hermione, I'll be fine for 20 minutes."

Unable to get past Harry's stubborness, they all went down to lunch. Just as Harry closed his eyes someone else walked in. "Hermione, go to lunch!" Harry exclaimed without looking up.

"It's not Hermione." Someone said. Harry looked up and saw Claire looking at him with a smile. Grinning Harry replied "Hi Claire."

She walked towards him and sat down in a chair near the bed Harry was staying in. "So, how are you?" Harry asked awkwardly. Slightly smiling Claire said "I should be asking you that...So are you okay?"

Harry nodded. They sat in silence for a few minutes then Claire suddenly said "You have something on your face Harry."

He reached up and tried to rub whatever was on his face. He was obviously missing because Claire kept on giggling.

Claire reached over and said "Here, let me get it."

She leaned over Harry and was a few inches from his face. He could feel her minty breath on his face. She gently rubbed a spot near his nose while avoiding looking at him. It seemed as though she got it off because she stopped rubbing it.

She looked down and their eyes met. They both unconsiously leaned forward without really knowing what they were doing. When their lips were just a few centimeters away from echother they hesitated.

Harry leaned forward and closed the distance between them. At first their lips were slow and hesitant but then they both got more into the kiss. Their lips moved in sync as they kissed echother.

As Claire was sitll sitting on the chair is was a little uncomfortable so she moved onto the bed so she straddled Harry. Her hands were in his hair and she tugged on it causing him to groan.

Slowly Harry decided to deepen the kiss and Claire moaned out loud unable to hold it in.

Grinning Harry cut off the kiss and said "So, how's it really going?"

Claire blushed and instead of replying she leaned back down to give Harry another kiss, which Harry happily obliged.

Harry got out of the hospital wing the next day which was good because he was going crazy staying in there. Ron and Hermione were with him as he walked down to dinner that night. Hermione was going over what Harry missed in classes and Ron was talking to him about quidditch tactics.

It was hard to concentrate on what they were both saying so Harry was very relieved when they reached the Great Hall. When they walked in some people stared at pointed at him but Harry was used to it.

They walked right over to the Gryffindor table and waited for dinner to start. When Dumbldore went up to the podium and said that he had announcements to make after dinner and then told them that they may eat Harry and Ron dug right in.

Hermione stared at them and said "How can you eat that much? Is your stomach a black hole?"

They just shoke their heads and kept on eating. Finally when dinner ended Dumbledore stood up and raised his hands for silence.

"Now you all know that deatheaters attacked Hogsmeade this week. Luckliy only a few people were injured. But only a few of your fellow students knew how to fight them. In these dark times we must learn how to fight and win. Now us professors have been talking and we have decided to create a club where you can learn how to defend yourselves. Teachers will be teaching this activity and it will take place every Wednesday night at 8'oclock. Those of you who wish to join there is a sign-up sheet in your common rooms for you to complete. Thank you and Good Night." He finished and there was some clapping through out the hall.

The trio stood up and started walking towards the door. On the way up Hermione turned towards Ron and Harry and asked uncertainly "We are going to join right?"

Grinning they both said in unsion "Of course Mione."
