**

Even though the weather was beginning to turn towards winter, Harry almost felt that it was a bright sunny day. All of the fears he had were being washed away by the simple acting of walking with Ginny. The pair of them weren’t alone but the couple that they were walking with were a little way in front. Not too far for conversation but far enough that each couple felt that they were alone.

The day had started for him with a long rollercoaster ride of emotions as he tried to prepare himself for the day. He had been on one real date and even though he hadn’t ‘officially’ said that today was a date, part of him took it as so and he was sure Ginny was looking at it that way. Every moment of the disastrous day with Cho played through his head and he tried to understand what he had done wrong on that day and what he had to do to make sure that it didn’t happen again. Yet, as his body was beginning to react to ‘girls’ or more correctly certain girls he wasn’t sure that today wasn’t going to be another disaster or even worse.

He had to wait for Ron as he was already finished before his friend had even woken up. He just sat on the window ledge and watched Ron get ready. Never had he seen Ron take so much time but wondered how long it had taken himself. With the two of them ready they had left to meet their ‘dates’. Each step had started Harry’s mind once more it continually thinking of what he had to do to have a great first date.

Harry had been surprised that Ginny and Hermione were already waiting for them. A sudden shot of panic ran through him as he thought he had made the first mistake of what he was sure to be many but Ginny simply smiled widely at him as she rose from her place at the sofa to lead them off towards breakfast. Harry followed wondering if he should be holding her hand or something but Ginny just kept up her pace towards the Great Hall.

As he took his normal place at the house table next to Ginny he felt as well as saw Gabrielle take her normal place next to him. He didn’t know if he should say or do anything towards her today fearing that it would look very wrong, but once again Ginny seemed to lead him and the three of them had what anyone outside would say was a perfectly normal meal.

Afterwards, Gabrielle had left them at the bottom of the Grand Staircase flashing the pair of them one of her best smiles. Harry felt his reaction not just in his magic but in his body and was again worried that he was doing something wrong but Ginny slipped her hand into his and lead him to the waiting line outside.

“See Harry I’m not jealous. You, me, her, Susan, and Luna it’s fine honestly.”

Harry looked at Ginny closely and felt a sharp stab of guilt; he hadn't said anything to Ginny yet about Thursday night and Luna. Was today the right day or should he hold that secret for another time?

After being checked off by Filtch they had waited for Ron and Hermione and the four of them had set off at a slow pace. Harry felt Ginny take the lead once again as they started the walk into town. They had only just started when Harry felt a sensation and he came to an abrupt halt. Ginny too halted and looked at him with a slightly quizzical expression but Harry closed his eyes briefly and sought the touch on his magic. Little pieces of understanding flowed into his brain and he turned slightly so that he could look at the castle. He didn’t wave or anything but knew that a certain somebody and watching the pair of them leave and that she was giving him the only thing that she could at the moment, understanding.

He looked at the far off windows and almost within his mind he could see her face watching them as they stood there. He smiled up at the castle as a sort for thank you before turning back towards the road and started off once more.

“You alright Harry?”

“Yes…I was worried but…not now.”

“Worried?” asked Ginny with a tinge of concern lacing her voice.

“About today, about getting it all wrong again.”

“Like with Cho?”

“Yes but I now understand. It won’t be like that you’ll make sure.”

“Me…what makes you so sure?”

“Oh just a feeling I have…in you.”

It was Ginny this time that stopped and turned. She was only confused for a brief moment before she broke into a wide smile and lent forward to Harry. She gave him a brief kiss on the cheek which left her feeling a little breathless.

“She’s concerned too; we shall just try and have the best day we can, for her and....us”

“Ok.” Replied Harry feeling the rollercoaster of emotion suddenly sweep him away.

**

Gabrielle could just about make out the figures of Ginny and Harry as they turned and started to run along the path in the direction of their friends. She had watched the pair as much as she could and had even let her magic flow towards Harry. The further he got away the more difficult it was for her to stay connected to him but she was sure that he had drawn upon her for a moment, even if he didn't realise it. It may have been only a moment but she thought that it might be enough. She turned back towards the common room her insides were happy for Harry and a little sad for herself.

She spotted her roommates stilling together at a table, she had spent some time in the evenings with them but not much. It wasn’t that they were not nice it was just that she felt so different to them. To her they felt almost childish but suddenly something almost rippled through her. She had thought that she would try and use today to do some of the things that she missed.

Both Harry and Ginny had told her how that room worked and she had planned to see it in action for herself. After all the talk about Quidditch and such like she had a yearning to do some of the hobbies that she liked. She wasn’t certain that she could go riding in that room but she could at least dance. When she had packed her things she had left behind all of her nice clothes and even her worn but comfortable ballet shoes but she had danced barefoot before or possibly that room could help her. But now looking at her roommates she felt the need within her to be just a child like them even if it was only for this morning, that room could wait until another time. Without Harry around to look at her she didn’t have to worry so much and it would be fun just to be the little girl everyone thought that she was if only for a few hours.

Holding back the smile she crossed to the table and joined the two girls sitting there. For the rest of the day no one would noticed where Gabrielle was as they wouldn’t believe that she was one of the three young girls sitting at a table permanently giggling, laughing or whispering as someone walked past.

**

The walk into Hogsmead was one of the most pleasant Harry could remember. The weather was still warm but only just. The air seemed so different to Harry as he walked - it made him feel so relaxed. Ginny kept up a gentle conversation between themselves and occasionally Hermione and Ron but each were in their own little worlds as they walked. It was hard for Harry not to compare this ‘date’ to the one with Cho, on that one he was scared of what to say and when he did find something to say it just sound so wrong or caused Cho even more distress, but with Ginny they were laughing freely and chatting just like the couple that they were.

On the way many a student passed them hurrying towards Hogsmeade but most were like them taking an easy stroll. Harry smiled as he remembered the scene they had come across about halfway to Hogsmeade. For once the four of them had been quiet and no one had spoken, it was that that allowed them to hear the noises and also for the participants to be a little less discrete. As they walked past an undulation they saw what was causing the noise.

Pressed up against a tree was Lavender and it was her or more probably her and Seamus that was making the noise. It looked like to Harry that Seamus was all over Lavender as much as she was over him. Their faces were pressed hard against each other causing all manner of noises as they tried to snog the life from each other. But that was a far too gentle term for what the pair were doing. Harry could easily see that Lavender had pulled Seamus shirt out of his trousers and had her hands underneath it. He could also not to fail to notice that Seamus had her blouse open and was roughly handling her breasts through the material of her bra.

Harry was sure the Hermione was going to say something as they approached the pair, but was surprised when she said nothing. He was about to open his mouth to say something when he felt a small tug on his hand and so turned towards Ginny.

“Do you want to do that…I’m game?” she whispered.

“Um…oh….ah….but last time.” stammered Harry suddenly caught.

Ginny was not sure what was going on with her, she could only describe it with one very dirty word. Horny.

She had noticed something while working on her essay for Charms. It was nowhere near what she had felt in the changing room, but it had to be coming from Harry. She thought through the possibilities, Gabrielle was on the other side of the common room, in their usual spot. That meant it had to be one of the other two girls.

Suddenly her conversation with Luna had come to mind, and she knew. She said she didn’t want to know, but she knew. The lack of jealousy had stopped surprising her after that conversation. She trusted Harry with her heart, and for some reason, she trusted the other three girls as well.

What did surprise her was her reaction to the knowledge that Harry might be having sex with Luna as she was sitting there. She had glanced at Gabrielle again and noticed the smile on her face. “Well.” /She told herself. /“If Gabrielle can enjoy this then I can too.”

She tried to concentrate on her essay, but that nagging thought in the back of her mind would not leave her alone. Giving it up as a bad job, she quickly wrote a summary and rolled up the parchment. She looked at Gabrielle but the girl had her eyes closed, and was smiling. She was nearly radiating pleasure. Ginny did not want to disturb whatever it was she was so obviously enjoying.

Closing her eyes she simply could not get Luna and Harry out of her head. She knew, or at least was pretty certain, that she would enjoy watching Harry with Gabrielle. She had stopped denying the thoughts of herself with Gabrielle that would flit through her mind during the day and her dreams at night. However, she would never have thought, that Luna of all people could make her feel so randy.

Yet that night even after the argument between Hermione, Gabrielle and herself she had drifted off to sleep dreaming of Gabrielle, Luna, and Harry, and what she wanted to do to them, or see them do to each other.

Coming back to present, Ginny was fighting a losing battle with herself. Knowing Harry had been with Luna, and yet not knowing was driving her insane.

“As long as we don’t go too far I’m happy. It looks so much fun and....I missed you Thursday night.”

Harry’s eyes flew open as his mind panicked.

Ginny laughed hard at his expression and then all of them stared as the noise drew the attention of Shamus and Lavender. The pair sprang apart, which was a neat feat considering where their hands were, and looked at the four laughing friends. The lipstick covered face of Shamus was far too much for them all and they crashed about laughing once more at this and the very pretty colour of red that Lavender turned as she tried to pull her blouse across herself.

The four of the pulled themselves together continuing on with their walk but not before Ginny whispered to Harry. “Would you like some lipstick, I’ve got plenty to spare.”

She enjoyed the deer in the headlights look she saw briefly on his face. Being bad felt very very good at the moment. She was enjoying her game very much thank you.

That was all behind them as they now stood at the end of the street. Familiar shops were displayed to them and one unfamiliar one. Near the far end was a new building, it looked to be fairly busy as well judging by the number of people entering and leaving.

“I think that’s the new place that Dean was talking about you know the coffee shop.” Harry said.

“Oh.” Replied Hermione for everybody.

“How about we all meet up there a bit later?” Ventured Ron

“You don’t want to go to the Three Broomsticks?” asked Ginny a little incredulously.

Harry saw Ron blush a little before giving Hermione a quick glance.

“Um…no….I think…” he stammered.

“It’s alright Ron… I know about you and Madame Rosmerta...”

Harry eyes almost left his head as Hermione said this but he had the sense to keep quiet.

“…But I do think it would be good to see a wizard Coffee shop. Harry, Ginny you ok?”

Harry didn’t want to open his mouth fearing what was going to come out so let Ginny answer for them.

“Sure we’ll see you there about lunch time.”

“Ok then.” replied Hermione tuning and leading a speechless and a very blushing Ron towards the book shop.

“W…w…w…what.” Asked Harry.

“Oh that, well Ron’s had a thing for Madame Rosemerta for ages, I think Hermione just wanted to rub it in a bit.”

“Oh...so what do you want to do?” asked Harry.

“How about Zonko’s first and then maybe something a little different.” Said Ginny battering her eyes at Harry.

Harry felt an instant reaction to those eyes’s and wondered if she meant a trip to that tea shop.

**

Greenburg took what he hopped was not going to be the last look at Ashley. She still looked scared, bruised and beaten. The only other emotion she had shown was when he had told her that he was going out today. He could still remember the fear that sprang to her eyes at the thought of what would happen to her. He had only been able to get the barest details out of her so far but it seemed that to ‘train’ the girl to be obedient for him they hadn’t used magic, well not much they had resorted to the old fashioned ways.

She had been abused over and over again, mentally, physically sexually anyway they could. It seemed that she had been captured by a Death Eater for his own personal amusement but before it had really started it was decided that she would be handed over to him. Voldemort, or one of his henchmen, had then instructed the Death Eaters to utterly destroy this woman until she was the veritable slave. They had used mind controlling magic but that was only after the physical side.

He knew that the girl would do anything he said, not out of care or duty but because she had to if she wanted to live. He was thankful that she was at least a witch, she wasn’t a good one he suspected but she did know about the magical world, but had firsthand knowledge of how cruel some of it can be. The fist night still flashed back into his head. She had looked at the food he had prepared in wonder but also fear. She had sat down only when instructed and just waited. He could remember the look of hunger in her eyes but she hadn’t moved. When he had prompted her she still stayed silent but when eventually told her that she should eat she did so.

In his trips around the world for Gringotts he had meet all sorts of strange people including those that had been starved and that was exactly how Ashley had attacked her food. She kept eating like this was the only meal she would ever get. In reflection that was probably what she did think. He had watched her quietly with his anger simmering under the skin as she finished the food on the table. He didn’t want to say anything but the bruise marks seemed to affect him more that anything he had seen so far.

After the meal he had tried to talk to her but she seemed tooreluctant to say anything. Eventually tiredness over took so he stood and said that he was going to bed. She had jumped to her feet in an instant and started to untie her dressing gown. He had felt confused but a little aroused as her body started to come into view but he had stopped her with a question. She had simply replied that she thought that if he was going to bed than he wanted sex with her now so she had better get ready for it. He tried to tell her no and had to resort to commanding her to stop undressing. He was aroused at this level of power over a person and one so good looking but that wasn’t what he was after. He knew now that he had been wrong, oh so wrong to ask for something like this.

Greenburg was sure that Ashley didn’t fully understand until he had shown her the separate room. Her eyes sparked with questions yet she never asked them. When he had told her that the room was hers he saw the flash of gratitude pass across her face before it was replaced by her blank mask.

That had been almost three days ago and now he was leaving her. She still looked scared him but he had made sure of everything. He had told her that if the wards triggered to floo to Gringotts; if they were closed to head for the leaky cauldron he would meet her there. If he didn’t arrive she was to take the pouch of money and run, run as far away as possible so that the bad men would never get her. He wasn’t sure if she understood but he had to try, he wanted to make sure she would be safe.

With a brief smile he left the apartment and headed for the stairs. Whatever happened now he had to be very, very careful in what he asked for from these people lest something like Ashley happened again.

**

Harry and Ginny didn’t bounce from shop to shop they flowed like a couple. Harry had seen many a glance from people as he walked but just being with Ginny seemed to calm him so much that it didn’t upset him. With Ginny being so close it also seemed to limit how close some of the girls got to him. As if to prove her point, she was in constant contact with some part of his body, and much like Luna, her breasts seemed to be what came in contact with him the most.

Ginny had also taken to walking them unexpectedly into an alleyway, still in view of his “admirers”. He was not sure why she seemed a little more forceful all of a sudden. But he was not about to complain about snogging his girlfriend, or rather, his girlfriend snogging him senseless but it just felt so public to him.

The day continued to pass by, with a little shopping, and a little snogging. Her body and her magic were screaming at her. And unfortunately for her, Harry was being a perfect gentleman, leaving her with no excuses. Each time it got to be too much, she would drag him off somewhere for a quick snogging session but he seemed to stiffen up slightly when she did so.

Why she was feeling this horny kept running through her mind. For most of the summer they had just talked or even kissed a little, even when school started nothing more really happened until that day. It all started in the locker room it was like a dam busting within her, her magic or her body just sought something and it was Harry, or the release he gave her. She tried to fight it back, and for the most was successful but now when they were alone she couldn’t or rather a part of her didn’t want to.

Her mother’s ideas on what was proper not just for her but for Harry keep trying to repeat itself within her but it was fighting a losing battle. She was in love, and the man she was with, was in love with her. How could anything they did together be wrong, when it felt so right? ‘/It’s not wrong, it’s just not right, right now.’/ She told her self firmly, it only served to weaken her mothers reasoning.

Finally she couldn’t take it anymore. She knew they did not have long before they had to meet Ron and Hermione at the coffee shop. If she was going to do something, she needed to do it now.

Looking quickly around she saw a dark alley, with a few odds and ends piled near the street providing coverage from most angles. “Perfect” she thought, and grinned mischievously at Harry. She pulled him with her, this time though she put her back to the wall so he would shield her from view.

Now that they had a bit of privacy, she pulled him to her, and kissed him hard. Her hands went instantly around his neck, and his encircled her waist, resting on her backside. He pulled back from her and stared at her for a moment. Her normally chocolate eyes were almost Black from lust. Her lips were swollen from kissing, begging to be kissed again, and her cheeks were slightly pink, though from the activity or from the cold, Harry was not sure. For some reason he didn't feel so exposed here he just felt safe.

“You are beautiful.” He stated as fact.

“You’re not so bad yourself.” She smirked and leaned in for another kiss, but he pulled away before she could deepen the kiss more.

“Ginny hold on, please, lets catch our breath.” He said, she could see a question in his eyes.

“Harry, what’s bothering you?” she asked.

“I... I was just wondering what brought this on. The last time you said we needed to slow down. Why all of this? It feels so wrong; you seem different, /nice/, yet different why? ”

Ginny looked away for a moment, and then began in a whisper, “Luna.”

Harry started to panic, “Luna....” he blurted out yet his mind wrestled with that word. He suddenly tried to apologise but it just came out all wrong. “...Ginny I was going to tell you, but you said... and she said... and…and... I didn't want to ruin our first date... and... ! But... wait a minute, why would Luna make you want to snog me senseless in public?” He finished with a question and a very confused look on his face.

That did it, now Ginny knew for sure something had happened with Luna, and her sex drive went up another notch. “Harry I am not mad about Luna, I told you it was OK, she even asked me about it first and I said yes.” She paused for breath, and a second to think through what was going on inside her.

“I told Luna, just like I told you, that I did not want to know what happened. But...I think I do...” She finished quietly.

Harry was still in panic mode, no matter what she had said about Luna, something was obviously bothering her. “Ginny I tried to stop her, I swear, but it just felt right... and I am so sorry, I won't ever let it happen again honestly...it was a mistake she caught me....” he was cut off by her lips meeting his. As he recovered from the unexpected kiss she started to speak again.

“Harry, I am not mad, that is actually the opposite of the problem.” She stated.

“Whuuaa?” Was all he managed to get out.

“I knew where you probably were Thursday night, and it’s been driving me insane ever since, thinking about you with Luna...I... can you...tell me about it?” She finished tentatively.

Harry swallowed hard, and the shade of red on his cheeks was not due to the cold. ‘Was she really asking him to tell her about, what he and another girl... could he even talk about that out loud?’ He could barely think it!

“Um...” he began slowly, taking a deep breath he asked her another question first “I, but, er, so you...are, um...comfortable with the idea of me and Luna?” He was very confused at this point; he could not tell if she was ashamed of herself or angry with him. He decided that either way, she deserved to know.

She answered with a blush and a nod, not meeting his eyes, afraid of what she might see there.

“Well...” he began again, “She met me on the way into the castle after practice on Thursday night, you had that charms essay to do?” He finished with a question, making sure she was listening. Again she only nodded.

“Er...so she meets me in the entrance hall and drags me down God knows how many corridors and secret passages, to a dark, unused classroom.”

She nodded, and chanced looking up at him, his emerald green eyes had glazed over a bit as he began to tell the story, she didn't mind him not looking at her at the moment. This way she could enjoy watching him as he told her.

“She asked me to light the sconces, which now I think about it was really weird, they should all light with one spell...” He continued, unaware of the lust growing in Ginny's eyes, or the tingling in her knickers.

“Then she closed the door and it was all dark, she, she just attacked me!” He said with a small smile, still not focused on the here and now. “I didn’t know what to do, next thing I know she was kissing me...” He trailed off as Ginny leaned up and kissed him softly, then locking her arms behind his neck, began kissing his jawline and playing with his hair. She mumbled something and he took it she wanted him to continue.

“So um, she, uh, then talked to me about sex, told me it would help me relax, and help with my magic.” He was having trouble concentrating with Ginny touching him like this; the bulge in his pants was pressed tightly against Ginny's thigh.

“I tried to tell her I couldn't do that to you, that friendship doesn't require sex, but then she started unbuttoning her blouse...” Ginny reached between them and unbuttoned the top three buttons of her blouse, his eyes going wide and he caught site of her pale and now only slightly freckled mounds, resting in her white cotton bra.

Ginny was enjoying this much more than she would have imagined, and judging by what was pressing into her thigh, she knew Harry was as well. Harry cleared his throat, and attempted to continue, his hand idly running up her sides, before running back down her body again causing a shiver to run through Ginny.

“She, um, took her blouse completely off, and then her bra...” he finished with a pleading look at Ginny. “...and so she um, she grabbed my hands and put them on her breasts.” Ginny smiled up at him and she slowly pulled his hands up to her still covered breasts and a thrill shot from her rock hard nipples strait down to her hot wet sex.

Harry meanwhile was appreciating everything he could see and feel. He was lost in feeling and touch, and smell. His mind merged what had happened with Luna and what was happening now so well that he found it hard to distinguish between the two. He leaned down and kissed her earlobe, eliciting a low growl from her that was decidedly un-Ginny like. He liked the sound and continued to nibble at her ear and jaw line. Remembering what Luna had told him, he kept his hands busy slowly circling the nipple on her breasts. Even though they were encased in material he could still feel their hardness.

Ginny moaned in pleasure as Harry kissed those sensitive spots and his hands played with her. Whatever Luna had done for him, she had to find a way to thank her properly because it never felt anything like this when she did it.

“Please…keep going.” Her husky voice pleaded with him. Harry didn’t know if she was encouraging him to continue with the story or what he was doing to her.

“So.. “ his voice took on a husky tone that if possible, made her even wetter, she knew she was going to have an uncomfortable walk back to the castle with soaked knickers later...unless?

“After she moaned and leaned in to my hands, I suddenly felt her hand sliding down my stomach. I tried to stop her, but she was too quick for me. Her hand shot into my pants, and grabbed...” he swallowed hard, and Ginny took words to action, and ran her hand downward, she light grasped him through his trousers. She could feel it throbbing with desire in her hand and the heat warmed her hand nicely.

“Grabbed what Harry?” she asked seductively. He seemed lost for words at the sensation, so she decided to lead the conversation for a minute. “She grabbed your...cock?”

She felt Harry twitch in her hand at the word, at the same time she nearly orgasm'd using such a filthy word while talking to him. He nodded into her hair, his breathing had become quite shallow and she thought she could feel his hips give an involuntary buck towards her.

“What did she do with it once she had it?” She asked him, it took him a second to understand that she was asking him a question.

“She, she told me to relax, that it would be ok, and I should let her do this for me, even if just once...she...” he took a quick breath as she squeezed him and his hips bucked against her again.

“She unzipped my trousers... and...” he swallowed “she, she pulled my... um...”

“Cock” she said with a grin at his reaction to the word.

“Um... right. She pulled my...cock...” he paused for a moment, feeling very very dirty, and very very horny, he would cum in her hand any second if he wasn't careful. “She pulled my cock out of my pants, and she...” But he had to stop once more as the pressure within him was building faster now.

“Then what did she do?”

“She, um, that is to say, she, umm, put it...well um.” He stumbled as the memory washed over him, and the anticipation of what might happen next.

“She sucked your cock Harry?” He nodded, his whole body shaking. “She put your cock in her hot wet mouth?” He nodded again, trembling.

Ginny kneeled in front of him, and got her first look at his tool. It was still covered, like her, but she could just about make out its size. She leaned forward and placed a delicate kiss upon it, she tasting the semi-sweet pre-cum that had soaked into his trousers. All the whispered conversations she had heard in the dorm, had taught her it would taste bad but it hadn’t. An almost yearn ran through her as she wanted to do more, taste more but couldn’t go through with it.

She squeezed him with her fingers, quickly gaining a rhythm with him. Every so often she kissed the end which was getting wetter by the moment.

It did not take long at all with all the build-up, he was soon grunting, he tried to warn her. “Gin, I'm gonna, you don't have to... please stop...not again...”

She gazed up into his face and smiled, then continued, it was not much longer and he gave a final grunt, as he starting spurting. As it hit his trousers she watched the spreading stain, she dipped her head once more towards it and kissed but this time she used her tongue the pure sexuality of what she was doing hit her, and she came... HARD. She did not know it was possible to have an orgasm without being stimulated somehow. Leave it to Harry to make HER cum while she was trying to please HIM.

Harry seemed to sag a little as the explosion in his trousers continued but Ginny continued to kiss him. He soon came to a stop, and pulled her up to him, her lips shone with his discharge. She didn't know if he wanted to kiss her with her lips like this, but she hoped so.

Harry pulled her close to him, and whispered in her ear. “That is all that happened with Luna honestly...I'm so sorry I should have...” But he trailed off as he looked at her pleasure filled face letting his emotions or something just control him he lent forward and kissed her.

Her relief was almost palpable, she was afraid he would think she was dirty for having those thoughts, for using those words, for what she had done. He was showing her now just how much he loved her. And it made her want him that much more.

A wave of guilt flooded Harry as he realised what they had done. She had given him everything that he wanted yet he had done nothing for her. But Ginny easily read his face so she grinned at him, then leaned in and whispered into his ear, “I came too Harry, just as you did, that was amazing I love you so much.”

He hugged her close, and then noticed the light in the street; they didn't have a lot of time before they were supposed to meet at the coffee shop.

“Um I had better get clean before.”

“Me too.” Replied Ginny taking a step back from Harry and glancing around. She felt so dirty, so horny again she just had to do it, if only to tease him some more. So she moved back a little way until she was nearly hidden in the darkness. She knew that Harry couldn’t see exactly what she was doing and so that would be perfect. She reached under her long skirt until she found the sodden material of her knickers. She pulled them down and felt the free flow of air hit her aroused sex. The cold breeze almost sent her over the edge again but she kept her composure but only just.

She balled the material in her hand feeling its wetness and closed the distance to Harry. She saw that he had just finished a cleaning charm on himself and looked his normal self. She leant into him for a final deep kiss. She pulled back and looked into his eyes.

“Harry, I have no money to buy you anything. So I want to give you these to show you how much I love you.” Said Ginny and placed into his hand the knickers.

Harry’s eyes looked at the simple white garment and felt the moisture on his hand. How could he possibly respond to such a gift?

The thought of walking with Harry and meeting her brother with no knickers on suddenly worried her yet it also excited her as well, maybe being a Scarlet Woman wouldn't be so bad, as long as she was HIS Scarlet Woman. She gave him one last kiss, and then grabbed his hand and they headed back in to the street.

The pair of them talked and shopped some more, and never once did Harry feel like time was flowing too slowly. He found it easy just to listen to her voice as she was talking about this or that, it was not until she started to head towards the new Coffee shop he realised that the morning had flown by. He glanced at his watch and saw that they were not just late but very late suddenly he felt very guilty for his friends but the brief smile that Ginny flashed him drove away these worries. For one of the few times he had truly enjoy the day and with the company of a girl this time.

As they approached the shop they saw that it was indeed popular by the number of people flitting in and out. The both saw that most of the people leaving the shop seemed to have a slightly flushed look but before they reached the door it was flung open once more and a familiar figure was striding out. Harry had seen Hermione upset before but this time it looked even worse than normal and by the look of Ron who was trying to follow her Harry understood that Ron must have done something bad.

“Um all alright?” he tried to say to the stomping Hermione.

“Really! I don't believe it!” Spluttered Hermione who obviously hadn’t seen Harry

“I didn’t, really Hermione it was....” tried to reply Ron in her wake he too not seeing Harry and Ginny.

“I think we should follow.” Said Ginny.

Harry nodded and they followed the still fuming Hermione who seemed to be heading directly back to the school. Unseen by Harry and Ginny a pair of eyes watched them until she could see them no more.

**

Nanette let out a small sigh as she saw the retreating form of Harry Potter. She had been a little worried if he had entered but she had a plan in case he did. Now that it seemed that he was following his friends she felt a sense of accomplishment at what she had managed to do this morning.

She knew that today was going to be her day and had planned everything she could. The staff was fully under her control, that and some of the potions she had would make the morning perfect. It had started slowly as it normal did the first Hogwarts students were a couple of third year boys. She was a little unsure if Voldemort wanted students of that age just yet. Her style of recruitment didn't lend it’s self so well to people that young but if they were old enough to look then she mused that they were old enough to die for her master.

The boys had shakily ordered a pair of coffees from her as they tried to avert their eyes from her chest but that was nothing to when she sent over their waitress. The low cut, high leg uniform that particular girl was wearing made the boys eyes almost pop out of their head. A quiet word from that girl would have those two at the very least enthralled even possibly converted right there and then. Showing these boys what they would get from Voldemort if they joined would be more enticing then the violence that had been used in the past that was her way of getting students for her master’s school. Sex drove people far more than violence and especially people that that age.

As the morning had moved on the stream of people got longer and longer. Her staff were getting busier and busier but still had time to show off what she wanted them too and to have more than one quiet word here or there. She had initially thought that it would be mainly Slytherin students and the more senior ones at that that she would be able to get but seeing the effects around the room she realised that many a boy or girl would do or agree to anything just for a chance at sex or even a glimpse of a semi naked body.

It wasn’t long before the odd couple started to disappear into the back or upstairs room. The staff had been told to tell the couples that ‘private’ rooms were available that and the small amount of lust potion that was being slipped into the coffee did the trick. Unbeknown to the couples each room had a number of surveillance charms applied to them and soon blackmail material would be available to her as well as possibly a few Ministry or other secrets.

She wasn’t going to push it too far this visit but when she started to circulate she had hinted that for those single and who were eyeing up her staff that arrangements could be made. It was a sort of welcoming gift a taste of what to come. Few saw the true meaning of her words but the few that did seemed to grin in anticipation. Soon she thought that Her Lord would have his students all willing to follow his every order as long as they got what they wanted, sex!

When the next couple had entered she was secretly pleased yet a little fearful. She instantly recognised them from that night she had been given to Harry Potter. The images of that night still remained with her and identifying these two were easy. She wasn’t scared of them far from it, it was just she was a little worried about Harry Potter. He seemed to be always with these two and he had seen her, completely exposed. If he recognised her for what she really was then this place would fall and quickly. For her it seemed that everything was working fine but that one boy could foil her plans at a moment’s notice.

She had planned what she would do if he entered, but seeing how busy the place was and how successful it was going she didn't want to leave the staff, without her constant ‘reminders’ they might star to fail in their main role. But as she watched the pair she saw that they were clearly alone. The small amount of fear was instantly replaced with a plan. The redheaded boy was glancing around the place like he was in heaven and even the girl looked a little too closely at some of the waiters than was necessary. If she managed to entice one or even both of these away from Harry Potter then her Master would indeed be pleased with her. If not, then getting them into a secret location so they could be killed or captured would be just as good.

The pair select one of the spare tables and Nanette watched one of her ‘girls’ rush up to them to ask for their order. She saw the boy’s eyes never leave the fulsome bosom that was displayed in the tight uniform that that particular girl was wearing. With a grim smile she waited for the order to be given and relayed back. After they had waited a little time Nanette sent over one of waiters to see the reaction. The girl at the table did seem to look the man over but quickly focused her attention away.

Seeing their order ready she stopped the girl and took the tray from her. This pair or more importantly that boy needed her personal attention.

“That alright Jasmine I’ll take this one.” She said to the girl in the tight blouse.

“Yes miss” replied the girl instantly giving Nanette a small curtsy causing her breasts to bounce ever so nicely.

Nanette nodded at the girl and could smell the potion that was wafting off the girl, she was just glad that she had taken measure to lessen the effect on herself. She was sure that after the shop closed this evening there would be some really wild things going on with her staff judging by the looks on some of their faces already. This was the downside to the potions and perfumes but it might be fun to watch she thought as she threaded her way towards the table containing Hermione and Ron.

As she walked she unconsciously wetted her lips, it was such a natural action when she was after a man that she didn’t think of it but it added just a little more sparkle to her perfect face. She carefully placed the tray on the table bending low directly opposite Ron.

“Your coffee, sorry it took so long as you can see it’s a bit busy.” She said before straightening up. To most of the other around this action seemed so normal that it would not elicit any suspicion but to Ron he would see everything. Her top was shaped and cut perfectly for her as she bent low it opened enough that the person in front could see down it. She had glanced at Ron’s eyes and saw them fall to her chest and then widen. In the position that she was in he could not only see the top of her breasts but the whole of them. They didn’t exactly swing free but only the nipples were restrained by the edge of her top. She hadn’t worn a bra that day so to give anyone the full show and that is what she did for Ron. He could see the softness and weight of them as they gently swayed the nipples were hard at the continued stimulus she could almost hear the panting form the boy as he started transfixed at her.

Almost as slowly as she could she straightened up and smiled at Ron and gave him a covert wink before turning and walking back to where she had been. The first steps had been taken; she was now sure that she could get that boy; especially if she could get him alone. She had seen that look on many a man before and a grim shiver of pleasure ran through her.

She continued to watch and manipulate the coming and going around her as she waited to make her next move. She didn’t care at the moment if she upset the girl with Ron because he seemed such an easy target. She glanced through the windows and saw the one boy she did not want too. Nanette had been surprised at the length of time that his two friends had waited but seeing the girl with Harry she could understand. The two of them to her looked to be almost in a world of their own as they walked calmly towards her shop.

Not wanting to miss her opportunity she moved towards Ron and Hermione before the new couple entered. She bent low once more over the table as she started to pick up the used glasses giving Ron the view once more.

“I hope you liked it.” she purred towards the boy. She saw the sharp glance thrown her way from Hermione so pressed on.

“Next time you can have anything you like....for free/.” Nanette watched as two pairs of eyes widened at her words; one in shock the other....in lust. “Anything you see you can have, /anything at all.” She continued but this time she flicked her eyes downwards to her own breasts.

“Why....You....” spluttered Hermione jumping to her feat and looking very hard at Nanette, she too straightened up but this stopped the view for Ron and suddenly realising what was happening he got up as well.

Hermione was still at a loss for words and so instead turned and stormed out of the shop. Nanette watched Ron quickly follow the girl but she still had to smile at herself, he would return and she was sure it. She continued to watch as the two walked past Harry and the girl that he was with. The two turned and walked off after the bushy haired girl. Nanette let out another smile, today was just going so well, but watching the girl with Harry she now wanted to find out about her as well. Her master would really be interested in that girl and might just be grateful.

Susan had awoken early that day. She didn't really think of the trip to Hogsmeade today as a date. But Luna thought she was pretty and you never know she might just see Harry so she figured she would do herself up just in case. After spending an hour going through her clothes she had finally decided on a skirt, tights and blouse combo that suited her. She did her makeup and hair to the best of her ability, and then stood in front of the mirror for half hour thinking.

What was going on with her anyway? Every time she was near Harry she felt like she was going to either melt into a puddle, or jump on him. He was a perfect gentleman, almost too good. At times she thought she saw him looking at her that way, but most of the time he would blush and move on like nothing had happened. She thought back to the first session of the DA this year.

Harry was walking around the class, helping to correct pronunciation and wand movements for some of the newer members. Most of the DA had gotten the Expelliarmus spell down last year. But Susan wanted to get Harry close to her. So she was deliberately sloppy with her wand work. When Harry came within sight of her, he frowned slightly heading in her direction.

"Susan, you had this spell down last year, is there something I can help you with?" Harry asked her.

She came up with a response on the spot, "I don't know Harry," she said quietly. "I must just be nervous or something, this stuff is a lot harder than Law or History of Magic." Well it was partly true, she was nervous, but because of her proximity to him not the spell they were working on.

"Here," he said, sliding behind her. He lifted her arm in front of her and rested his chin on her shoulder. He had done the same thing for most of the girls last year, he was seemingly unaware of just what he did to all of them, but he had been mostly focused on Cho Chang at the time. He really did not know what effect he had on the girls when he got this close.

She felt his breath on her neck, as she concentrated on his chest pressed into her back, and the contact point where is hand was holding hers, directing her wand.

"You need to keep it tighter," he said softly in to her ear. "Fancy flourishes and silly wand waving will get you killed in a real fight." As he continued she tried to concentrate on the words, but all she heard were "tighter" and "wand".

"So you keep the movements tight like this, and you finish with a hard poke at your target while saying the incantation. Keeping it tight like this will help hide what you are doing from your opponent until the last second." He finished, as she completed the spell satisfactorily.

She was stuck on the words "hard poke" this time but managed to turn her head to him, and kiss his cheek. "Thank you Harry, you have no idea how much this means to me." She tried to put on her most seductive look, unfortunately Harry was being bashful, and didn’t notice because he was trying to hide a blush.

"Not a problem at all Susan, you need to be able to protect yourself, as well as the other girls, in case of a fight." He said soberly, before moving away.

She growled at the memory, what did she have to do to get through to that thick headed boy. She was not going to fling herself at him like some wanton hussy. But all he had to do was say the word and she would give herself to him.

Sighing in frustration, she took a final glance in the mirror. Deeming herself "pretty enough" for Luna she headed out of the dorm and up to the Great Hall for breakfast. She would not be able to sit with Harry OR Luna, but she would see Luna directly afterward.

Upon entering the Great Hall she immediately saw Harry, with a pang of jealousy she saw him holding hands with Ginny, and Gabrielle was sitting so close, she might as well have been in his lap. Why did she have to be a 'Puff' instead of a Gryffindor? "Because you don’t have enough courage to tell him how you really feel" a little voice told her. She was not jealous that the girls were with Harry, she was jealous that she was not ALSO with him/."Am I that desperate that I want to share him with those two, and Luna?" /She thought to herself, suddenly images of Luna and Harry came unbidden into her mind. She was instantly aroused, and quickly shuffled over to the Hufflepuff table to sit down.

She needed to sit down, her knees had gone week at the thought. "I have never been attracted to girls before, why am I thinking like that about Luna?" she asked herself, filling her plate with eggs, toast, and bacon. "What would Luna think if she knew I just had a fantasy about her?"

She glanced around the hall, trying to clear her head as she ate, over at the Ravenclaw table she saw Luna sitting by herself, a good 2 or 3 spaces around her were clear on either side. As her gaze landed on the back of the girls head, Luna turned and locked gazes with Susan, almost as if she knew Susan was looking at her she flashed a rather loony grin back.

Feeling sad for the girl sitting all by herself; she decided that it was the weekend; The Great Hall was not very full. And she was a Hufflepuff after all, they stood by their friends. Susan stood up and headed for the Ravenclaw table, a few eyes looked her way, but no one said anything. As she reached the end of the table she smiled at the Blonde. "Is this seat taken?"

Up at the Head table, Professor McGonagall watched the girl walk from Hufflepuff over to the lonely Ravenclaw girl. Dumbledore’s worried over the control that Harry could have over people had surfaced, was this then the start? She would never had seen such an action in the previous years but now one girl not even of the same year joins another from a different house. Yes there was cross house friendships but nothing like what she was seeing. Forcing her eyes away from the pair she resumed her breakfast but a small voice kept telling her that something had changed in the school and she need to find out what. She looked on, somewhat amused by the expressions of the other students, before they turned back to their meals.

Luna looked up and smiled back. "Actually nobody ever sits near me, they all seem to think I have a Wrackspurt infection and they don't want to catch it." She said as if this were a normal reason for people to avoid her.

"Well, in that case do you mind if I join you?" Susan asked.

"That would be lovely thank you Susan." Luna responded.

Now that the hard part was out of the way, Susan was suddenly nervous as she sat down. She was desperately trying to rid her thoughts of her "Daydream", but being this close to her was not making it any easier. Luna noticing her apparent unease, tried to reassure the troubled Hufflepuff.

"I don't really have a wrackspurt you know, it’s the wrong time of year anyway, and they prefer warm weather." she whispered conspiratorially

Susan found herself giggling uncontrollably, Luna had just knocked all thoughts of sex right out of her head, and it felt really nice to be just Susan once again. "Thank you Luna, I know you don't have a wrackspurt, but it’s nice to know it’s the wrong time of year. That way I don't have to worry about catching one from anyone else." She finished with a twinkle in her eye.

"Oh well I am glad then, I was afraid you were going to cancel our date. I would understand, all my other friends seemed to disappear when I talk. It is very nice that you stay with me, and it’s nice to see you relax for awhile, though I was hoping to figure out a more permanent solution later...” she trailed off.

Susan missed the veiled message altogether, she was still laughing on the inside about the wrackspurt. "I would not miss our date for the entire world Luna; real friends listen to each other, and cheer each other up. They don't use each other just for sex and then stop talking to you." She finished, somewhat downbeat; afraid she had ruined the good mood with her words; she tried to salvage the conversation.

"Well I am looking forward to meeting these Hobbling Flywaggers or whatever, is this a good time of year for them?" Susan asked.

Luna lit up once again, talking about her animals. Susan seemed genuinely interested, or at least, she seemed to enjoy hearing stories about them. And that was good enough for Luna.

"Oh yes, they are invisible most of the time so we might not be able to see them today, but this time of year is Mating Season for the Bumbling Humdinger, their mating habits have the unfortunate side effect of releasing pheromones into the air, which have the same effect as a love potion when a human runs into them. So if we are lucky enough to come across them, we will know because they can cause an uncontrollable urge to mate." Luna finished with a sly grin.

Susan was not sure what to think about that statement she didn’t know whether to believe her or not. Luna spoke with so much conviction that it must be true or was there a deeper reason for all of these creatures?

Luna brought her back to the present when she reached across the table and grasped Susan's hand in hers. "So are you ready to go, I have already eaten, and you don't seem to be hungry at the moment, we can always get some chocolate at Honeydukes before heading to Dervish & Bangs to look at the new books they just got in."

Susan was more than ready to go, besides the disturbing thoughts running through her head, the contact between their hands that felt like little electric shocks to her. Luna had just described a perfect day to her; Chocolate and Books.

"That sounds absolutely wonderful Luna, lets head out."

With that they both got up and walked out of the Great Hall. They did not realize they were still holding hands as they did so, but nobody else seemed to take notice either.

***

After getting chocolate and a new book apiece, the girls headed for the Shrieking Shack. Susan had really had a lovely time with Luna. And if the smile on Luna's face was any indication, the feeling was mutual.

She had not really thought about much for the last hour, they had been engrossed in looking through the books. It was really nice to have someone with similar interests, Susan may be from the house of loyalty, but she did not really have any friends before Harry and the girls.

She giggled slightly at the thought, and the fact that she wanted to become more a part of the girls, desperately. She caught a glance from Luna.

"It is nice to see you laughing Susan; you have seemed so tense all the time when we are in the castle. I assumed it was sexual tension from time spent with Harry. But whatever it is, it’s nice to see the real you for a change." She finished dreamily.

"Thank you Luna, it is nice to be myself, I did not realize I had fallen so far until today. I think I was still dealing with the death of my Aunt Amelia." She finished her tone somewhat dark.

"I was very sorry to hear about that,” Luna began, "I lost my mother when I was little, the pain gets better a little and it will go away eventually." She finished, becoming strangely lucid, compared to the Luna that Susan was used to.

They had reached the area in front of the Shrieking Shack, and Luna produced a picnic blanket, and then unshrunk a picnic basket she was carrying in her pocket. The two sat down on the blanket facing each other. Susan reached out and grabbed Luna’s hands and held them in her lap.

"How long did it take for you, before the pain went away I mean?" Susan asked quietly.

"I will let you know when it’s completely gone, but my Daddy told me the pain would go away eventually." Luna replied.

Susan was suddenly talking to a very different Luna. This Luna was quite serious, and quite apparently in pain. Normally Luna seemed to let everything flow off her like water, now she seemed to be a shy, insecure girl. The change was abrupt as it was amazing.

"What does your dad do?" Susan knew he owned the "Other" newspaper, the Quibbler. But she felt they needed a change of subject.

"He is the owner, publisher, and head reporter for the Quibbler." Luna said, "But I think you already knew that, thank you for changing the subject though, it was a very nice thing for you to do." She finished, looking and sounding more like the Luna that everyone knew.

"Yes…well," said Susan looking for something else to say. She picked through the basket and found some rather odd items. Wand Polish? A Quill? And what looked like muggle Whipped Cream in a can? Putting the basket down she turned back to Luna. "So, your father is one of the ones who finds and documents these animals we have never heard of?"

"Oh yes, actually he is the only one, the other reporters, well, they prefer more of the Gossip type of stories”, Luna responded.

"So how does he document his discoveries?" asked Susan, trying not to dash Luna's belief in her father, but trying to keep up the conversation at the same time. She did not mind the strange references to animals that even wizards thought were make believe. They made Luna happy, and that is how Susan liked her Luna. "My Luna?"

Not noticing Susan's pause in thinking, Luna carried on the conversation."Oh, well Daddy tries to take pictures of course, but unfortunately he is the only photographer will to accompany him, and he isn’t very good at it. But he writes down everything he sees in his newspaper stories.”

Luna was absently running her thumbs along Susan’s hands, where they were joined in her lap. Sex was nice, but she thought this might be even nicer. Just holding hands, like the other girls did with their boyfriends. Maybe she didn't have to have sex with Susan to keep her as a friend. Not that she didn't want to have sex with Susan. She had done plenty of research today at Dervish and Bangs about homosexuality, and Bi-Sexuality. And the book she had purchased was the real "Karma Sutra". Not the toned down version that was sold to muggles. But the Wizard version, the one she picked up had an entire section on sex between females. Luna was interested in trying these ideas out eventually. But right now she was happy just holding hands with her girlfriend. She might not know it yet, but Luna had decided to make Susan her girlfriend. She decided that until Harry was ready to date all four of them. She would only have a girlfriend; all of her boyfriends had left her after the sex. She didn't think Susan would. But she did not feel the need to push the issue yet. She was going to enjoy this while it lasted.

"Luna, do you think those humdingers are around here somewhere?" Susan said bringing Luna out of her thoughts.

"I am not really sure, do you feel like Mating?" Luna asked.

Susan blushed a bright red, worthy of Ginny. "Um, actually I was just thinking about... Anyway, what do you want to do now?" She said trying to change the subject back to something safe.

"Well as we already have the blanket spread. How about we cast a warming charm, and read our new books and eat chocolate?" Luna suggested.

"That sounds wonderful." Susan said, getting her new book out of the bag then leaning back against a nearby tree. Luna did the same, only instead of leaning against the tree; she laid her head in Susan's lap, and promptly opened her book. Ignoring the funny look the other girl was giving her.

The sun moved slowly across the sky as the two of them sat in silence reading. A slight shiver ran through Susan causing her to glanced down at Luna and saw some of the moving pictures in the book. Immediately she blushed as she recognised not only what the pictures were trying to depict but that both of the participants were woman. A second shiver hit her and this time it was centred upon sex. A deep wetness started to spread through her knickers and into her tights, mortified at what was happening she tried to get up.



"Luna, I... I mean... I am so sorry...” said Susan, but Luna was not letting her go without a fight.

"Where are you going Susan? Weren't you enjoying yourself?" Luna asked.

"Luna, I... I don't like girls, like... that... I mean, oh bloody hell!" Susan hated not being able to speak elegantly, and resorted to cursing, both the situation, and her inability to think straight.

"Susan, there is nothing wrong with anything that happened today, and there is nothing wrong with wanting to touch another girl. I must say the thought keeps crossing my mind. Gabrielle and Ginny are both pretty, and one day I wouldn't mind trying out some of these instructions." At this she nodded to the book she had sat on the ground beside her. "But you and I have a connection that I do not have with the other two girls. That is why I decided you should be my girlfriend." She finished.

Susan was taken aback. It was not every day that you hear any one of the things that Luna had just said, let along all of it. ’Do I want to be Luna's Girlfriend?’ She mused.

"I don't know Luna. I don't want to hurt your feelings, but I didn't even think until recently that I liked other girls. Yet here we are, I think I am just so worked up over Harry that I am projecting those feelings on to you." She said in a defensive tone. "It must be the humdingers, yes that’s it...” remarked Susan, trying to convince herself.

"Well, I would not put it past them. I know that I certainly have felt the urge to mate more often." Said Luna sitting up, now that it didn't appear that Susan was going to run away. "I did choose this spot for that very reason after all. However I neglected to tell you all about them. They may give you the urge to mate. But you must have feelings already for the person before you will act on the impulse. I am very glad that you have feelings for me, I have feelings for you too."

Susan was momentarily stunned. She had tried to use one of Luna's fake animals as an excuse, but it had somehow gotten turned around on her. Then she realized what Luna said. "You have feelings for me?" She asked somewhat meekly, her discomfort with the situation momentarily forgotten.

"Oh yes," Luna began. "I was lucky enough to know my mum before she passed away, and I know my Daddy loves me. I understand what love is, I know I love Harry, and I know you love Harry too, although I do not think He understands that yet. I think I love Ginny, I have since we were 6 and practiced kissing near the pond at The Burrow, and she seemed to think I fancied Ronald for awhile, but he was just my excuse for kissing lessons. I don't know Gabrielle very well, but I am sure I will love her, and then there’s you." She finished softly, but with a smile.

Susan was a little shocked ‘Kissing Ginny?’ was her first thought? ‘/I love Harry?’/ Was the second, to which she immediately wanted to agree to. She had not put the words to the feeling before, but it was true. "

“What about me?" She asked not knowing if she wanted the answer, or how she felt about it either way.

"I feel something like love for you." Was Luna's simple answer. "I do not know if I love you yet, but I really enjoy spending time with you. I would like to have sex with you of course..." She trailed off, gathering her thoughts.

"But I am enjoying just laying with you in the sun, and holding your hand, today has been very nice. None of the boys ever wanted to talk to me, or to hold my hand." She finished looking a little lost.

Susan jumped from introspective mode, to comforting mode immediately. "Luna, those boys were using you for sex. They were not your friends. I really like holding your hand and hanging out."

Luna beamed a smile at the older girl that made her breath catch, "Thank you Susan, now I would like to kiss you, if that is alright?"

"Um...” Susan was suddenly incoherent again. She hated that feeling, of not being able to communicate with her words. "Luna, I don't know... I don't know if I even like girls like that... I like you... but I don't know what that means...” she trailed off.

"It is quite alright that you don't know." Said Luna. "But you need a frame of reference to know if you like girls or not, unless you try it first you can't make an informed decision. Kissing Ginny was very nice when we were young, I would not know if I liked you in that way if not for her."

Susan was having a tough time refuting the Loony Luna Logic that was being directed at her. Everything seemed so jumbled at the moment it felt so uneasy to her.

Of course she could not know unless she tried it. That was something her Aunt had drilled into her when she was young and didn't want to eat her broccoli. Deciding that her Aunt was right, she responded to Luna. "Well, I suppose that's true...What is it the American's say? Don't knock it ‘til you try it?" She smiled shyly at the blonde. Her heart beating rather fast, in anticipation of what was to come.

Luna got up on her knees, and scooted closer to Susan. She noticed the girl seemed to be vibrating. Truth be told, she was surprised to find she was nervous as well. None of the boys she had been with, with the exception of Harry, made her feel like this. "I kind of like this feeling it’s all buzzy and warm...” Luna began whispering as she leaned in closer.

As she stared into Susan’s her eyes she could see the anticipation building. "I am going to kiss you now...” She whispered.

"Okay...” was all the response she got from Susan. Leaning in and tilting her head slightly to the right. She closed her eyes and she watched the other girl do the same. And then she pressed her lips against Susan's.

Susan felt the very very soft lips tentatively touch hers; she involuntarily puckered her lips to meet Luna's. Closing her eyes made this a lot easier, she was able to stop thinking about who she was kissing, and just enjoy it. Her hands had come up behind Luna and pulled her into a hug. The other girl reached behind Susan's head and locked her wrists behind her neck. They both paused only long enough to take a breath, and each instinctively tilted their heads the other direction, to feel the kiss from a different angle.

Then she felt something warm and wet, just barely touch her bottom lip. Luna was asking silently, if she could deepen the kiss. The slight contact had sent her body rocking slightly, as her heart sped up. She opened her mouth, allowing what Luna wished. And as their tongues met for the first time they both took a deep, sharp, breath through their noses. They continued kissing like this until the air was running out, and they were both getting Dizzy. Susan reluctantly pulled away from the soft body, and soft lips before her. Still slightly dizzy, she gazed at the blonde before her, trying to formulate a response to what had just happened.

"Wow" was what she finally managed to spit out.

"Yes, wow." Luna responded in that dreamy voice that Susan was getting to like very very much. "So does this mean you like girls? Or at least that you like me this way?" Luna asked, suddenly feeling a bit nervous that she had gone too fast, she didn't want Susan to stop holding her hand like the boys did.

Susan registered what Luna had asked, but was still swimming in emotions and feelings that the kiss had brought on. Knowing it was important to let Luna know what she was thinking, and more that Luna must be feeling rather insecure at the moment. She tried to reengage her brain.

"I liked that very much...” She said with a very goofy smile splitting her face.

"So you would like to do it again sometime?" Luna asked, not quite as nervous as before.

"I think...” Susan began, sorting things out in her head as she went. "That it would be lovely to do that again... sometime." She smiled at Luna. "Right now though, I really need to sort things out in my head. I only just realized that you are right, I love Harry. I don't know what I am feeling for you, but you are definitely my best friend Luna. And I think I feel something like love for you too." She finished averting her eyes from sudden embarrassment at admitting her feelings for both parties out loud.

"Good, so you will continue to be my Girlfriend?" Luna posed the question out loud, realizing that it was rather rude to assume Susan was her girlfriend without at least informing her first.

Susan giggled a bit at the craziness that was Luna Lovegood. "I did not know until a few moments ago that I was already your girlfriend... But I do want to figure out how I feel about you. So yes, I will still be your girlfriend Loony." She saw something flicker across Luna's face and realized what she had just called her. She started to apologize but was interrupted by Luna.

"I know you didn't mean it like everyone else does, I like it when you call me Loony, my mummy used to call me that." Luna said with a small smile.

"I am glad you like it." Said Susan

"Well, if you don’t want to continue kissing at the moment, then we can either go back to reading, or we can return to the castle. It has been a rather eventful day I would understand if you would like some time to yourself..." Luna trailed off, not liking the idea, but feeling she should offer anyway.

"No Loony," Susan said, enjoying how that pet-name brought the smile back to the girls face. "I think we can go back to eating Chocolate and Reading. There is nothing better in my opinion. And who knows, maybe the humdingers will make another appearance.
