Hope Has Returned Chapter 24 (Harry's POV)

The next week went by fast. I've done great in my classes even though I can land an auror job without proper learning. Saturday rolled around and it was time for the Gryffindor Quittage Trials. Once Ginny and I got down to the pitch there was about 100 people there. We rode up above the pitch and looked down at everyone.
"TO START IF YOU'RE NOT IN GRYFFINDOR LEAVE!" I yelled down to the field. Then about 45 people left the field. Ginny and I looked at each other and laughed.
"You guys can watch from the stands if you want to!" she yelled to those who were leaving. They all smiled and went to the stands.
"Those who are trying for chaser line up over there, for beater over there, and for keeper over there!" I yelled down to the field.
"What about seeker?" a little boy yelled who must be in his 2nd year.
"I'm the seeker, but you might be a good chaser" I said trying not to break his heart. He looked up and smiled then he walked over to were the chasers were. We had everyone fly around the pitch and everyone who weren't good flyers left to watch. The little boy stayed. Then I had the keepers try out and Ron won! Then we had the chasers try out on Ron. If they were able to score on him they might make it. I got it down to 5 people for Ginny and I to pick. The little boy was in them. We had the beaters go next. We easily decided on two. We said we would tell everyone about who made it later next week. Once Ginny and I made it back to the common room we sat on our couch. The second I laid down Ginny climbed on to me and kissed me. I kissed back and we stayed like that in till we opened our eyes again. When we did we saw that the whole house came back inside because it started to rain. We looked up embarrassed to see that everyone was smiling.
"Carry on we walked in on Ron and Hermione in a spare classroom so you guys can carry on." Neville said with a smile.
"Thanks" and then I kissed Ginny. She then grabbed me and pulled me upstairs to the girls dormitories. She knocked and there was no answer so she pulled me in. We could hear wolf whistles from the common room. She smiled at me and kissed me. After what felt like forever we could hear Neville yell loudly.
"Oh Ron your back!" then I heard Ron's respond.
"Yes we are but why did-" but Hermione cut him off my kissing him I think. Then she grabbed him and pulled him up above us to the 7th year girls dormitories. We looked at each other and laughed. We walked down the stairs and I thanked Neville for his warning. Ginny and I grabbed our paper work/homework and went up to my dorm. We sat on my bed and did all of our work. After we finished we had our team. 2 great beaters, 3 amazing chasers (including Ginny), 1 awesome keeper (Ron. He won fairly), and one super-mega-foxy-awesome-hot seeker. The little boy made it as a chaser. He was great so we couldn't not let him in. He flew fast and could have been a good seeker. Once we were finished we went back downstairs to see an angry Ron!
"YOU AND GINNY DID WHAT?!?" he yelled in my face.
"all we did was make out and-" I responded backing up.
"AND DID WHAT?!?" He said walking forward.
"-paper work and homework." I finished because it was true.
"My I ask who told you this?" Ginny said crossing her arms across her chest.
"Dean" was all Ron said. She moved toward Dean and then slapped him across the face. It took everything in my power not to laugh but I suppressed a small laugh.
"You think this is funny Potter?" Dean said turning on me.
"Yes Dean, I think it is amazing. I'm tempted to join Ginny in slapping you." I said twirling my quill in my hand looking at him.
"I could use some help." Ginny said looking at me.
"What's a detention?" I said shrugging my shoulders.
"It's nothing" she said with a smile so I slapped him too. Ginny and I looked at each other and laughed. Once we started laughing the whole room joined in laughing at Dean. Dean then ran out with what looked like tears in his eyes.
"Nice job mate but watch out what you do because that's my sister." Ron said looking at me.
"And you watch out because I think of Hermione as a sister." I told him raising my eyebrows at him. When I did that he turned bright red. I laughed and then Ginny hugged me from behind.
"Can I help you?" I said.
"Ermm yes Professor Mcgonagal would like to see us" she said pointing to they door were she is standing.
"Okay, see ya later everyone!" and we walked hand in hand to her.
"Follow me to my office Potter and Weasley." She said so we followed laughing a little.
"In" was all she said pointing to her office. We entered to see Dean holding an ice-pack to his face. Ginny and I looked at each other and laughed.
"Now I've heard that you two have slapped Dean multiple times. What you did was bad and I've heard his side of the story and I'd like to hear yours." Professor Mcgonagal said with a stern voice so I told it.
"I see that Ginny asked for your help?" she said asking me.
"Yes" Ginny and I said at the same time.
"What Dean did wasn't wrong and wasn't right and you did as Ginny told you. Ginny slapped him in the first place for something he said so all of you get of scoot free" and she shooed us all out of her office. Dean turned on me.
"You should sleep with one eye open Potter!" he said angrily.
"I'm sure I can find somewhere else to spend the night" I responded looking at Ginny. Dean walked away muttering curse words under his breath toward the kitchens. Ginny then pushed me against the wall and snogged me. I snogged back for a while. Draco walked by and gave we a thumbs up. I did a thumbs up to him behind Ginny's back. We continued in till it was time for dinner. We didn't notice that we were by the Great Hall in till we heard whispering. We looked at each other and laughed. Then Ron walked by with Hermione.
"I DON'T WANT MY SISTER SNOGGING IN PUBLIC!" Ron yelled in our faces. She let go of me, slapped Ron and ran away.
"Ginny wait up-" but all she did was turn around and blew me a kiss so I returned it.
"I'm going to dinner good luck with Ron!" and then she ran to the Great Hall. Ron then turned on me.
"WHAT THE HELL HARRY! THAT IS MY LITTLE SISTER! I DON'T WANT PEOPLE CALLING HER A SLUT!" and then he punched me. Because I was against the wall when he punched me my head hit against the wall and I fell to the ground. When I looked up after a few seconds I saw all the teachers looking horrified at Ron. He looked pale like he didn't mean to do anything.
"Oh my god sorry!" he yelled into my face.
"WEASLEY BACK AWAY FROM POTTER!" Professor Mcgonagal yelled.
"DO I NEED TO REPEAT MYSELF!" she yelled at him again. By that time the whole school was in the hallway. Everyone looked horrified at me. Ginny then yelled something at Ron, slapped him again and then sat down next to me.
"Harry are you okay-" Ginny said with a lot of concern in her voice.
"Why is it always me-"but then I fainted.
