Love Through A Window (A Harry Potter Love Story)

The Hearing

Aria
It's the been a month, and Ron and Hermione haven't communicated with us. Harry and I have sent them letters, but their answers are very vague. It's his birthday today! We had breakfast, and then Harry brought me to his room. I heard my mom shout "keep the door open you two!" I shouted back "we will, mom." Harry sat down on his bed, and I sat down next to him. I found a picture of us in my mom's album, so I made a copy and framed it. I handed him his present and said "Happy Birthday, Harry." He smiled and took it. "Thank you, Aria." I smiled, and he opened it. The picture was of us at the Yule Ball. He smiled, and asked "How did you get it?" "My mom had it, but I have no idea how she got it," I said. We laughed, and then he held my hand. "You're the best thing in my life, Aria." I giggled and said "you're the best thing in my life, too." He leaned in, and then our lips met. Harry pushed my hair behind my ear, and then rested his thumb on my cheek. We stayed like this for a while, before I heard someone clear their throat. We pulled away and saw my dad at the door. Oops! He said "I'll leave you two alone now," and walked away. I was embarrassed, so my cheeks turned pink. Harry smiled and said "where were we?" I giggled and leaned in again. After a few seconds, he pulled away and said "I love you Aria." "I love you too," I answered.

Harry and Aria,

Sorry for not writing to you guys. Dumbledore told us not to until we could get you here with us, and it's time now. Moody(the real one) and Nymphadora will be there tonight to take you and Aria's parents there. See you soon,

Ron and Hermione

I asked "well now what are we going to do tomorrow?" Harry smiled, held my hand, and said "we'll find some time." I smiled, and asked him "what happened with Cedric?" He looked away and said "I don't want to talk about it." "Harry, you've been having nightmares lately, and I want to know what happened." He sighed, and said "Wormtail killed him." I gasped, and then hugged Harry. Why is it always him that goes through all of this? Today went by pretty fast, and now I went to my room to sleep. Hopefully we have a good year this year.

Harry
It's about 11:00pm right now, and I can't really sleep. I keep thinking about them coming, and how I can finally ask them why they haven't written. After a while, I fell asleep, and then woke up to someone opening the door. I stood up and picked up my wand. When the door opened, I saw it was just Moody and Tonks. Aria was with them, too, and then Moody said "let's go, Harry." I walked outside, and there were brooms there. Aria is scared of heights, so she's riding with me. When I kicked off the ground, she held on tighter, and we shortly arrived at our destination. Moody pounded his cane on the ground a few times, and the two buildings in front of us separated to reveal a middle building. We entered, and heard people arguing. I saw Mrs. Weasley cover up the room by closing the door, and she greeted us. "Aria! Harry! How've you two been?" We greeted her, and then she opened the door and I saw Sirius. I walked and hugged him, and then he whispered "why is Aria looking at you that way?" I told him I would tell him later, and then we walked upstairs. Hermione attached me in a hug as soon as I opened the door, and then she attacked Aria in another hug. Ron said "let them breathe!" Hermione said "we've heard about your hearing, and they can't expel you. I've looked it up. It's unfair." "I've looked it up too," Aria said. "It's true, Harry. They can't do anything." Harry then went to ask "why didn't you Ron tell us anything about this?" Hermione gave a look to Ron, and he said "we wanted to tell you, only-" he paused. "Only Dumbledore made us swear not tell you both," Hermione finished. Aria asked "what is this place?" "It's Headquarters for the Order of the Phoenix." Ron and Hermione then wished me a happy birthday, and they walked out saying, "we'll leave you two alone."

Aria
Ron and Hermione just walked out, and Harry smiled at me. We sat down at the edge of one of the beds in there, and I said "happy birthday, Harry." "Thanks," he said. We leaned in slowly, and just we were about to kiss, someone walked in and we jumped away. It was Mrs. Weasley. "Sorry guys! Dinner's ready." "We'll by right down,"Harry said." She nodded, and then walked out. I giggled, and he said "back to where we were." We leaned again, and then our lips touched. We stayed there for a few seconds, and then pulled away. We walked down, and sat next to each other. After dinner, we wanted to take a walk outside, so we asked Mrs. Weasley and my mom. "Be back by 9:00pm, ok?" It was currently 8:30pm, so I agreed. We put our jackets on and stepped outside. As we started walking, Harry held my hand, and said "I love you." "I love you too," I answered. The hearing came into my mind, and Harry could tell I looked worried. He stopped walking, and I did too. I tried not to look at him because I was really worried. When I feel really worried, I tend to shut down and ignore everyone. All I heard was a quiet murmur, so I snapped back in and heard Harry say "hey, it'll be ok." My eyes started watering, and he pulled me in for a hug. " I don't want to lose you," I whispered. "You won't. I promise," Harry said. I felt a tear fall down my cheek, and Harry pulled me away. "I promise I'll do whatever I have to so we can be together. I won't let you go that easily." I sighed, gave a slight smile, and said "can we sit down somewhere?" He nodded, and we walked to the park. We found a bench, and sat down. I laid my head on his shoulder, and he wrapped his arm around me. Harry whispered "I love you sooo much." I giggled, and answered "I love you more." After that, we decided to walk back, and when we got there, we realized it was just on time! We went straight upstairs, and then went to bed. I'm nervous for tomorrow.

Harry
It's the morning of the hearing, and I'm really nervous. I woke up and went downstairs for breakfast. A few minutes later, Aria came down, and I could tell by her face that she was nervous. She sat next to me, and I held her hand. She gave me a slight smile, but then she went back to looking nervous. After breakfast, we followed Mr. Weasley down the street until he entered a phone booth. He told us to go in also, so we followed as he dialed a number, or at least tied to. We then went down, and ended up in a subway. We then went through, and somehow got to the ministry. As we were in the elevator going to my hearing, Kingsley entered and whispered something to Mr. Weasley. "Merlin's beard! Thank you Kingsley," he said. Aria asked "what is it?" "They've changed the time of your hearing." I asked "when is it?" "5 minutes," Mr. Weasley said.

Aria
Harry's hearing starts in 5 minutes! I felt my heart drop to my feet, and then gasped. When we got to the Department of Mysteries, we saw Fudge talking to Lucius, but Mr. Weasley made us walk forward. When we were waiting outside the courtroom, Mr. Weasley was talking to Harry,as then he said "I'll give you and Aria a minute, but make it quick." We nodded, and as soon as he walked away, I attacked Harry in a hug. My vision was slowly going blurry from my tears, and I whispered "I'm scared." "Don't worry, Aria. Just relax," he said. I quickly wiped my eyes, and leaned in for a kiss. Harry kissed me back, and I felt safe. After a few seconds, we pulled away, and Mr. Weasley came back. "It's time." We walked into the courtroom, and I sat down in the seats, while Harry sat down in the big chair. Fudge started with "Mr. Potter, it was brought to our attention that you performed the Patronus Charm in the presence of a muggle. Were you aware that you, being underage, are not allowed to use magic outside of school?" "Yes, but-" Harry said, but then Fudge interrupted him. He continued with "and you cat it anyway." Once again, Harry said "yes, but-" "then there's nothing else to say, as he does not have a witness." "I was on,undoing it because of the dementors," Harry said. The minister then denied that. "Pardon the interruption, minister, but his witness is sitting up there," Dumbledore said. Fudge then called me to the stand, and a woman said "describe the attack." I took a deep breath, and answered "well, there were three of us, and we had just left the park before rain fell. When we were in a tunnel, everything went cold and sad. The dementors then appeared, and Harry performed the spell only to save us. If he hadn't, I don't know what would have happened." Fudge then took the votes, and started with "those who think the accused should be pressed with charges," and only a few people raised them. A woman who had been protecting the minister the whole hearing rose her hand, and I cringed. I hate her so much. Then he said "those who want to clear the accused of all charges," and the rest of the people rose their hands. I rose my hand in the air, and then Fudge said "cleared of all charges." A smile came across my face, and Harry looked at me. We walked out, and a soon as we turned the corner, I kissed Harry. He kissed me back, and pulled me close. We stayed there for a few seconds, and then pulled away. Harry hugged me and said "I'm cleared of all charges." I giggled and said "I knew you would be." Mr. Weasley came and said "congratulations, Harry." He thanked him, and then we went back to headquarters. We walked straight upstairs, and Ron and Hermione were in there. Hermione asked "how did it go?" Harry at first looked all serious, and then he said "cleared of all charges." She ran up and hugged him, and Ron hugged him, too. "I'm so happy, Harry," Hermione said. Then she said "we'll leave you two alone now." Ron and Hermione left, and then Harry went and closed the door. He came and sat down next to me, and I said "I love you so much, Harry." "I love you way more," Harry answered. I shook my head, and he nodded. "Ok, you do," I said. He chuckled, and held my hand. I rested my head on his shoulder. He rubbed the back of my hand with his thumb and said "I told you nothing would happen to us." I giggled, and he kissed my hand. We go back to Hogwarts in a week! I just want to go back!
