Riddle Me This

Chapter 76

Catherine's POV

The following Saturday, all the girls met at my house to talk.

"Why are we here exactly?" Pansy asked as she watched Hermione and Ginny talk together as Luna just sipped at the tea provided. I smiled.

"Well, on mine and Draco's date this past week, which ended up turning into a double date because no one will serve people who had anything to do with the bastard that brought me into this world unless Harry says otherwise, Ginny asked me a question. This question made me think that the answer would help Hermione in the long run as well, and considering that you, Luna and I have experience in this topic, I thought we could all answer the question." I replied.

"It wasn't a question." Ginny said, blushing lightly. "I wanted advice."

"On what? You could've come to me, Ginny." Hermione said, sounding a little hurt.

"A virgin can't tell me how to take the next step with Harry, 'Moine." Ginny pointed out. Hermione turned beet red before turning to me.

"You want to give Ginny and I sex advice?" She nearly shrieked. Pansy began to snicker.

"Oh this is going to be fun. But should two Slytherins and a RavenClaw really be the ones to tell two Gryffindors how to shag?" Pansy asked.

"I'm shagging a Gryffindor." Luna pointed out.

"Okay, so you don't count, but why are we?" Pansy asked, motioning between herself and I.

"Simple, you've shagged Blaise, and I've only ever slept with Draco. Two different experiences, two different approaches." I explained.

"Then why isn't Blaise and Seamus here?" Pansy asked. "They're experts at this." I gave her a look. "Alright, fine. So what do we advise them about? It's pretty straight forward."

"Not really." Luna said. "Neville was really nervous the first time. It was cute." I giggled.

"Yes, well. I'm sure he didn't want all of us knowing that. Pansy, you can't use it against him." Pansy pouted when I gave her a small glare, but turned back to Hermione and Ginny. Hermione was glaring with a blush decorating her cheeks, while Ginny sipped her tea like this was normal, which sadly it was.

"So why are we talking sex to them? Haven't they heard it enough while we all hung out Eighth year?" Pansy asked.

"Ginny asked me for advice, and agreed that Hermione needed it too, so I'm going to say no." I said, before turning to them. "So tell me, which part do you really need help with." I said before sipping my tea.

"Well, how to start it." Ginny said frankly. Pansy shrugged.

"Well I don't know how useful I am then. Blaise asked me is I fancied a shag and I said yes." Pansy answered. "Considering you want to take this into your hands, I am no help to you. Not to mention it was a one time thing and I'm not really into wizards anyways." I turned to Pansy with a soft smile.

"What do you mean by that?" Ginny asked. "Only muggle boys tickle your fancy now?" I continued to watch Pansy.

"It means I like witches." Pansy said flatly, and a little uncomfortable. Ginny just nodded, as did Hermione and Luna. I smiled gently as I put a hand on her knee.

"Would you rather not be here for this, Pansy? If you'd prefer, while Luna and I talk to Ginny and Hermione, you can go work on the assignment Healer James gave us yesterday in my study. There's a bewitched teapot in there that self brews and serves." I explained. Pansy smiled thankfully.

"Thank you, Cat. I think I will. Don't talk about me while I'm not in the room. And I want to see their expressions later." Pansy said as she stood and headed to the study.

"I'll show you in Papa's pensieve later." I said after her, getting a nod from my fellow Slytherin, and waited until the door was closed before turning back to the other three. "So, Luna, how did you and Neville begin shagging?" I asked simply. Hermione groaned as Ginny turned to listen.

"Well, I just asked one day. Neville had been nervous, so I made sure he knew that we didn't have to if he wasn't comfortable with it. It took him a couple days to agree." Luna said.

"Okay." Ginny said, before turning to me. I smiled gently.

"It just sort of happened. I had followed Draco to the Room of Requirement, and after a small argument and making up, it just kinda... happened." I said with a shrug. "Kissing became snogging became shagging. Though I like to view it as making love." I blushed a little. "Because it was right after Draco affirmed he was dating me for me and had said 'I love you' for the first time." Ginny nodded.

"Okay, but any other ideas?" Ginny said, she shifted in her seat a little.

"Seduce him." Luna suggested. "Lead him into the bedroom, and then pounce when he least expects it." We stared at Luna for a second before I began to giggle.

"Maybe bring it up in conversation first. Make sure Harry would be comfortable with it first before just hitting him with it. Maybe explore a bit during snogging sessions, see what gets Harry excited, so that when you know you're ready you can lead into it." I suggested afterwards.

"Or, wait until your wedding night." Hermione suggested with a firm blush on her face. I shrugged.

"Or that, if you think you can wait for Harry that long." I smiled gently. "There is definitely nothing wrong saving yourself till then." Just then, Pansy left the study, coming over and grabbing a biscuit off the table.

"Studies lacking in biscuits. I'm disappointed in you Cat." Pansy said, before straightening and nibbling on one for a second, before turning to Ginny. "Leave Contraceptive and Infertility potions in your bedside table with a little note that says 'for when Harry's ready' so that he doesn't think you're shagging another bloke, and so that he knows that if he wants you, he can have you." And then Pansy headed back into the study. We watched the closed door for a second before shrugging.

"Or that. I always make sure I have some on hand in my room, and we learned how to brew it this past week in mine and Pansy's healers training. I could brew a couple bottles for you." I said. Ginny smiled happily, but Hermione still looked less than impressed. I sighed. "Hermione, you know that we aren't trying to push you to shag Ron. I just figured that, if for some reason, your mind changes and you decide that you don't want to wait, that we could help you out now instead of later."

"I know that. But it's still insane to think about. Not to mention that I live with Harry right now, and I doubt Ron wants to hear his little sister get shagged by his best friend." Hermione explained. I giggled.

"Oh Hermione, that's where silencing charms come in. And some are good enough to work even after falling asleep. Or Harry could have the wards modified so that a simple spell could set up silencing wards around the room. That's what this place has." I said as I motioned to the walls. "The aurors already checked to make sure they're all legal." I said afterwards. Luna and Ginny giggled a little while Hermione groaned.

"I give up on all of you." She declared finally.

"Took long enough." I giggled again. The floo lit up, and in came Draco with a small bouquet of flowers. Her saw the four of us and cocked an eyebrow.

"I thought you'd all be long gone by now." Draco said with slight irritation. Ginny smirked.

"Pansy! Draco's here!" She called, pulling the other Slytherin from my study.

"Why should I care?" Pansy asked as she poked her head out, before seeing the flowers in Draco's hand. "Oh, you are such a HufflePuff." Pansy said. And this started Ginny revealing how HufflePuff Draco and I could really be.
