A Harry Potter Love Story: Gracie Style 2 *Completed*

Chapter 12

"Harry! Harry!" I called, jogging down the hallway. I spent my free period in the library with Mione and Nat while Harry went to the pitch to help Ron a bit. On my way to the common room, I had gotten a note saying we had another lesson with Dumbledore tonight. Harry spun around with a smile, waiting on me. "Lesson!" I squealed, handing him the note.

He ready it slowly, and then smiled, nodding. He laced his fingers through mine, we were heading to the Halloween feast. After our date, I had ran back to my dorm and went all teen girl. I gushed the whole thing, every detail, to the girls. Nat rolled her eyes repeatedly, but Mione and Ginny thought it was absolutely adorable.

Harry an I sat down together at the table, grabbing food with our free hands. There was a bucket of sweets every three or four people, so I pulled one in my direction, forgetting food completely. Chocolate frogs! Yay! Ooh and suckers! I love suckers, not sure why, I just do. "Harry don't look at Gracie." Ron warned, smirking at me with this evil little glint in his eye. I glared back in warning, but he ignored me. Prat. Harry glanced over curiously.

"And why not?"

I giggled, shoving my plate away. I took the wrapper off and popped it into my mouth. "Cus I love suckers. And I act really stupid when I have them."

"Stupid how?" Mione eyed me curiously, a hint of amusement in her eyes.

"Stupid dirty." Ginny snickered, she pulled out a sucker and started mimicking me. I blushed furiously while everyone else laughed, especially Nat. Like she hasn't done the real thing. "Do you remember the time our really perverted neighbor saw you and was like, 'oh the way you suck that lollipop?' That was so funny!"

"She nearly shoved it up his ass!" Ron laughed harder, wiping tears from his eyes. Mione slapped him playfully, scolding him because of the language. I blushed even more, glaring at the two of them.

"It's not that bad!" I snapped, twirling it in my mouth. It's actually kind of bad, but it's not like I mean too! Fred and George used to laugh at me all the time, talking about whoever I married was one lucky fellow. Gits. Dirty minded people.

Harry was staring at me curiously, a smile on his face. I rolled my eyes and pulled the sucker from my mouth slowly. "Stop it!"

"Wow." He chuckled, wrapping his arm around my waist. I rolled my eyes again, replacing the sucker. He didn't stop staring, he seemed amazed. I finally decided I'd had enough. I put all the chocolate I had back and took over half of the suckers out of the bucket. The younger kids were quite thrilled about it too, more chocolate for them.

I shoved them down in my robes, then sat there awkwardly. "Hey Nat, where's the baby?"

"Fred came and got her this morning. He's going to meet me at the next Hogsmeade trip and we're going to do something as a family." She shrugged, dropping her head. Nat can try and hide it all she wants, but everyone at this table knows how big she's smiling right now. Except maybe Ron. I think he's oblivious to love because at this very minute, Lavendar brown is making googly eyes at him and sighing dreamily.

"Hey Ginny."

"Oh hey Dean!" Ginny turned around with a smile, batting her eyes. Flirt alert! I didn't know she liked Dean? "How are you?"

"I'm fine. I actually came over here to ask you something." Dean glanced at Ron nervously, then at me, and even more worried look on his face. Poor kid, he's got every Weasley in the book to worry about. Except Percy, but he doesn't count because he believed the Ministry over his family. We could have got over that, but the fact is, he still hasn't grown a pair and apologized for being wrong. He won't even talk to us because he's a prat.
