(Dumbledore's Army) Harry / 💛

AN: set in the year of Order of the Phoenix, 5th book

"Expelliarmus!" Neville shouted while flicking his wrist, sending a light wave careening toward Seamus who had been a second too slow. The spell swiftly knocked his wand out of his hand, leaving everyone astounded at Neville's progress.

      "Nice one, mate!" beamed Seamus, giving him a congratulatory slap on the back. Neville had been trying to master it for ages; and everyone was ecstatic for him. After the praise died down, the next two moved up to duel. Y/N L/N and Michael Corner stepped up to their positions.

          Y/N was one of the newest additions to Dumbledore's Army, but she had been working more than hard to prove herself. Many nights a week, even before she had been invited to the army, she would sneak out of bed and use the girl's bathroom as grounds for practicing spells in cause of Umbridge's new rules. She was overjoyed when Hermione asked her to join.

           However, she fancied the teacher quite a bit. Nothing weird though, as Harry Potter was just a year her senior. She really did put work into her spells, but often Harry did make it hard to concentrate, especially when he would spit out a paragraph to her while looking into her eyes with his own gorgeous green ones. God, they were absolutely marvelous.

        Y/N wasn't going to let that get in the way of that now, though. This was her first appearance to everyone else to see what she was bringing to the table. There was no way in hell she'd mess this up.

       "Alright, Y/N," Harry nodded to her. "You've got this." He whispered this into the back of her neck, throwing her off her balance a little bit. Shuddering for a split second, she quickly regained her composure and stiffened her body, bringing her wand up as Michael did the same.

          A third year boy signaled for the duel to commence, while everyone watched in anticipation as both of their wands shot up into the air.

          "Alarte Ascendare!" yelled Y/N.

          "Carpe Retra-" Michael began, but was unable to finish after being hit directly in the navel by Y/N's spell. He soared into the air, and thudded across the room. Gasps echoed throughout the room. Attempting to get to his feet, he opened his mouth to try and make word from his intentions, but Y/N's reflexes were too sharp.

      "Stupefy!"

   Michael's body grew unnaturally stiff, and he fell over, before sitting up a few seconds later in defeat. Their peers eyes were wide, and it was silent, before everyone started clapping in amazement. Y/N walked over to Michael, and took his hand, hoisting him off the ground in good sportsmanship.

        "Blimey, L/N," Michael said. "That was incredible!"

       "Indeed it was," Harry's voice came from behind them. "You're only a fourth year, correct?"

       "No need to rub it in, Potter." Michael joked. Harry laughed, shaking his hand as he passed him to go join the side fo the room that was practicing Patronus charms.

      "But seriously, though," Harry continued. "That was amazing. Where'd you learn technique like that?"

       Y/N blushed as Harry's eyes held eye contact with her own. She looked away shyly, not knowing exactly what to say.

      "Erm... I've... just practiced, I-I guess." She replied, looking back at him. A small smile was creeping up on Harry's face.

      "Well, whatever you're doing, keep it up, Y/N...."

        The two of them stared at eachother, fixated with one another. The silence between them went unnoticed, not awkward, but just them enjoying the presence of each other. Wide smileswere now plastered across their faces. These fifteen seconds had felt like thirty minutes of pure bliss to Y/N.

         "We haven't got all day, mate." Fred's voice broke the their trance. Harry spun around to face him and his twin. Y/N shook her head, unsure of what had just really happened between her and Harry. She noticed both twins had sly smirks on their faces.

      "Ahhh, don't be such a cockblock, Fred. The two were obviously having a lovely time." laughed George. 

       "My sincerest apologies to you two," Fred chuckled, raising his eyebrows at Harry. "You guys can continue this after you finish helping us out with the Patronus charm, Harry, and hopefully in private."

        Y/N felt her cheeks go hot at his statement, and Harry turning his head around to face her didn't help to make it lessen any better.

       "We should have training sessions together, Y/N, I think you'd make a really good teacher. Stay after so we can talk about that." He smiled genuinely, beginning to walk away with the twins. She could hear their conversation as they moved across the room.

       "Yeah, training sessions," George snickered.

"Oh, loads of training happening there." added Fred.

     "Sh-Shut up." retorted a very flustered Harry.
