Nope, no claim whatsoever, well except for the sexy parts, thats all me. I am the sexy!

Chapter 27: Super Magic???

Harry sat in his mindscape after reading 'Silly Wand Waving' once again. He decided to go with his instinct and assumed that everything he could see was representative of his Magic. So he tried once again to do some of the exercises from the book.

None of the others had been successful just yet, as far as he could tell. This final one was supposed to harness the fire element. Since, magic was supposed to be based on intent according to the book, he should be able to conjure fire with a thought. He decided that if this didn't work he was going to have to start with the other method described in the book. Slowly reducing his use of incantations to whispering and then thinking. Followed by reducing his wand movements to zero.

So imagining that he could feel himself full of power as he had done in the previous exercises he brought himself out of his trance and just under the surface. He held out his hand palm up. He made a fist and thought about what he wanted. It was not the same as a bluebell flame or Incindio charm. What he wanted was fire that would burn anything but himself. He would be able to direct it like a thing alive. He squeezed his fist and imagined he could feel the heat beginning to build and as he slowly opened his fingers he imagined he could see the fire expanding into a ball floating above his palm.

He opened his eyes and saw nothing, so he tried again, this time he could have sworn he felt a trickle of something happen but once again when he opened his eyes nothing was there. He tried it again with his eyes open but when nothing happened he sank all the way back into his 'study' and centered himself once more. He found a large jumble of stray thoughts about Dumbledore, and created an entire separate file of those along with a few quickly thought up ways to get back at the meddlesome old man. He saw a few images flicker past of a very naked and very delectable Susan sitting astride his cock, he groaned and quickly sorted those thoughts away as well, wondering if that were the distraction that was keeping him from accessing his magic properly.

He brought himself to the surface once more, and without opening his eyes he slowly let the magic build up, and slowly opened his fingers imagining the tingle of magic extending between his fingertips in a five pointed star before fire flashed quickly and went out. He knew he felt something that time but didn't want to look yet. So he tried it again after a few minutes and felt the same results.

Taking another five minutes or so, he couldn't be sure since time flowed differently inside his own head, he tried one more time opening his eyes just in time to see a quick flash in his palm. It was so fast he could have imagined it but decided he would simply believe. He smiled to himself before realizing he was completely soaked in sweat. Apparently that was very hard work physically as well as mentally.

He groaned out loud as stood, sitting in that position for so long was bad for his joints. He decided he needed a shower before finding out what the girls were up to. Turning he headed into the Masters room quietly closing the door behind him. He turned around and froze. Susan with her back turned to him and her arms stretched out to the sides, completely naked once more in his room, with the windows wide open. She was even prettier than he remembered. He idly noted the elf measuring her before shaking his head and running past her into the bathroom.

Susan heard the bathroom door close and turned curiously. "Harry?" She asked in a very scared voice.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to." He called through the door.

She got a confused look on her face before she remembered she was completely naked, and promptly blushed to her navel. "Um, Harry you've seen me naked before...and well, more than that..." She trailed off.

His muffled voice came through the door once more. "That was amazing, but this isn't a game and I didn't have your permission. I'm sorry."

Susan threw a look at Gabrielle who was laughing quietly on the bed. "You..." She said with narrowed eyes, prompting the girl to burst into renewed giggles.

"Winky is there a robe or something I can wear?" The elf nodded and popped out then back in so fast that it seemed as if the robe in her arms appeared from thin air. She put it on and walked over to the door. "Harry, I have a robe on now, can you come out and talk to me?"

The door opened and he looked at her sheepishly. "Sorry, I know we've been, um, rather intimate but it is still a shock to walk in and find a naked girl in your room. Why are you in here anyway?" He asked suddenly sensing trouble.

"I'm afraid that is Gabrielle's fault, apparently she thought it would be funny if you walked in on me like that, I didn't know I promise." She said with only a slight blush. 'Maybe there is a potion or charm to stop blushes.' She wondered idly as he stared into her eyes.

"I was never blaming you." He said softly looking into her eyes and causing her to melt a little. "Just wondered. I am rapidly losing any problem with nudity as far as I am concerned, but it takes me quite awhile to get used to it from anyone else, especially girls. Mione and Gin both still get to me if I don't watch myself."

She nodded. "I...I don't mind too much Harry. It...it makes me feel sexy when you look at me." She said in a very small voice.

He lifted her chin so she met his eyes once more. "That's a good thing, since you are sexy." He kissed her quickly. "Now I need a shower and unless you want to watch..." he sent her a look getting the blush he was waiting for.

She turned back into the room and faced him and knowing full well he was watching she dropped the robe and nearly fainted as her heart began racing in her chest and her pulse pounded in her ears. But she pretended she was absolutely fine as he stared at her for a full minute nearly drooling, before he turned and walked back in to the bathroom. The water started but he had not closed the door.

Winky quickly finished the measurements and she flopped down on the bed beside Gabrielle who began idly tracing circles over her naked flesh, and watching the girls nipples pucker without touching them. "You enjoy yourself Non? I did good?"

"That was a dirty trick and I don't know if I should kiss you or smack you." Susan said with a smile.

"You know now zat he thinks you are beautiful though, Non?"

"Yeah..." She breathed out with a dopey smile. "But I don't think I am ready to run around here naked just yet. I feel like its too soon no matter how much fun it is." Gabrielle just nodded.

"Zen we need to get you sexy things to sleep in, Eef I share his bed, you are welcome to share with me." She said to the older girl. "To sleep of course." She finished with a smile.

"Of course, what else would I be doing in bed with the Green-Eyed-Sex-God?" Susan asked.

"Cuddling again?" A naked Harry said walking out of the bathroom toward her. She let out an eep but didn't move.

"That sounds nice..." She said quietly. "Um...but I think I need to put something on."

"Why?" He asked, "I thought you didn't mind."

"That is why, at this rate I am going to beg you to shag me by nightfall." She told him, not realizing that her legs had spread open toward him of their own accord, until she followed his gaze. She sat up quickly placing a pillow over her front.

"Whatever you want Susie, but if you are in my room, I am probably going to be naked." He said shrugging.

"I never said I didn't like to look." And she grinned as she got to see him blush, even as his cock bounced once or twice. She realized she was staring at it when he cleared his throat and she looked up to see him smiling at her.

"This has been fun Susie, but if you really don't want anything to happen, I think you should probably get some clothes back on and I will get dressed and meet you in the training room. If you like?"

Susan nodded until she saw Gabrielle staring at Harry's cock much the way she had been. "Actually, I think I am going to go take a shower as well, looks like our friend here has other ideas for you. She got up and trying to look as if it didn't bother her dropped the pillow and walked toward his bathroom. Leaving the door open she stepped into the glass enclosed shower and turned on the water. She heard Gabrielle moaning lightly over the sound of the water, and she watched the open doorway intently as she began rubbing small circles on her clit. Half Hoping and Half Fearing what would happen if he walked in and found her right now...

*************************SFTP************************

After Susan was satisfied that she was completely clean, three times, she decided that Harry was respecting her enough to not look in on her in the shower. She grabbed the fresh towel that had been hung on the door, and realized with a start that one of the elves had placed it there in the last half hour, meaning they had seen her...she didn't even try to fight the blush as it exploded from her. She blushed more than a Weasley and that was saying something.

Getting out and drying off she casually walked over to the sink just in front of the door, her heartbeat had never really died down and she glanced out the door, knowing if Harry so much as glanced this way he would see her again. It was maddening. She had told him she wanted to slow down but now that he was actually listening to her it was as if he didn't want to see her naked. Closing her eyes she could see his bouncing boner and knew that was not the case.

"Stupid perfect Gentleman." She muttered aloud.

"Oui, he eez." She was startled enough to let out a tiny scream as she looked in the mirror and found a very naked and very satisfied looking Veela staring back at her with hungry eyes.

"Geez Gabrielle, you just about gave me a heart attack!"

Gabrielle strolled in and started a bath. The bubbles began foaming almost as soon as the water hit the bottom and the white stood out nicely against the black. "I am sorry, but you are ze one that stands in front of open doorway, you are trying to give Harry a show, Non?"

"Non!" Susan said in denial of exactly what she was doing.

"Oh, well Harry is in ze bed panting, he says something like I am trying to keel him. Why would I wish to do zis?" She asked as she tested the water and nodded in satisfaction.

Susan's eyes strayed again to the doorway, imagining a thoroughly shagged Harry naked in bed, and she shivered. "You are that good then?" She asked.

Gabrielle smiled seductively. "I am ze best when I have him all to myself. He had never experienced me when he let me 'ave my way."

"Oh." Was all Susan could say. She watched as the perfect blonde slipped slowly beneath the bubbles, moaning as the hot water hit her skin.

"You would like to join me for ze bath?" She asked.

That actually sounded really nice, Gabrielle touched a stone on the side of the tub and suddenly there was bubbling and moving jets of water swirling around her. She moaned once more and that decided it for Susan. "Well I suppose we don't have anything else to do today, it would be nice to relax."

The bathtub was large enough for easily a handful of people so she did not have to sit anywhere near the other girl. But she felt drawn towards her so sat down next to her as she slipped into the water. Joining the other girls moans of pleasure as the hot water swirled past her. "Magical whirlpool bath? The Black family may have been pureblood snobs, but at least they used and improved a Muggle idea." She said as her large breasts floated up to the surface of the water.

"Non, ze wizards of Rome had magical whirlpools at ze roman bath houses, Muggles are imitating us zis time." Gabrielle said absentmindedly.

"Oh, that's a nice fact to know." Susan said letting her hands drift along with the current until they came in contact with the other girls breasts causing her to blush, but it was hidden because of the heat. "Oops, sorry, I'm not trying to get fresh."

"Please do? Honestly Suzie I am sexual creature, I want you and I know you want me. If you will not give yourself to pleasure zen at least you can be comfortable in my presence. I promise not to attack you." Gabrielle said as her own hand slid lazily across Susan's bobbing breasts, instantly stiffening her nipples.

"Um..." Susan said not knowing what else to say but not stopping her arms as the bobbed along side the other girl, occasionally touching her own floating hands or her smaller but perfectly shaped breasts. She just decided to consciously ignore anything that happened along those lines. It isn't like she and Hannah had not spent last summer and any time they were alone in the dorm last year exploring much more than that.

"Harry said he would join me soon, ze bubbles will hide you if you wish to stay modest. Ozerwise I suggest you go ahead and get ready for ze rest of ze day." Gabrielle mentioned as if it had absolutely no bearing on the direction Susan's relationship would take with Harry. Once again Susan decided to ignore it and see where the situation took her. She was not really opposed to playing with Harry some more, she just thought it was not proper, but was rapidly losing any sense of societal propriety.

They floated along lazily touching each other for another ten minutes until Harry entered and stared into the bathtub looking lost. "Uh, Hi Susan." He blushed making her feel much better.

"Come on in, the water is fine." Susan said feeling bold as she looked up at his rapidly stiffening genitalia.

Harry thought quickly. Susan was sending him hot and cold signals, she was all for playing the game after the party, and then she seemed scared to find him looking at her, and then dropped her robe as if it was nothing soon after that. He decided that from now on, he would let her do whatever she wanted, she knew he was going to be naked in his rooms, and she was in his bathtub after all. If she wanted to play like that he would just ignore any awkwardness.

"That sounds wonderful," He said slipping into the tub beside her getting a quiet squeak as she was now pinned between Gabrielle and Harry, the latter whose eyes were glued to her chest where it appeared to support the entire rest of her body with its buoyancy. She enjoyed his attention she decided. It was getting easier every time he looked at her, but the little surprises and anticipation were what made it so exciting. So she decided she was going to tease him as often as she could, and simply hope he returned the favor. As long as she stayed away from penetration she thought she could simply enjoy his attentions in whatever form.

Her mind decided she closed her eyes and let her feet float to the top as well, exposing her legs and allowing him to catch glimpses of her pubic hair. She felt decidedly randy so decided to try and takes things a step farther. She let her hand drift accidentally into his lap, and brush across the tip of his cock.

Harry sucked in a breath. "Sorry Harry, the movement of the water and what not, I can sit up." She said cracking an eye in his direction.

He gritted his teeth and smiled at her. "No, that's not necessary." And apparently deciding that she looked comfortable he took a deep breath and floated to the surface along with her, his erection popped out of the water and stood straight up looking to her eyes almost like a shark fin. Suddenly she remembered a Muggle movie she and Hannah had gone out to see and promptly began giggling.

"What?" Harry asked suddenly confused. Was she laughing at his body? She seemed interested enough in him before.

"Sorry Harry, I have a song stuck in my head." She giggled again and caught her breath as her fingers slid across his bum before coming in contact with his hand. For some reason she felt an intense need to hold his hand, even more so than to touch his prominently displayed cock.

Harry looked at her quizzically, "Jaws Harry, the shark movie." She said with a significant glance at his cock and back to his eyes. "Daaaaah dum." She hummed. That seemed to jog his memory because he promptly blushed.

"Glad to know that my body and my condition are amusing to you. I find that it's good for things besides comedy though." He said looking her in the eye and releasing one or two Patronus memories.

Susan nearly drowned as her eyes rolled back in her head and she let out a breath, she was saved as his hand caught her and pulled her back to the surface before the water went over her face.

"You okay Susie?" Harry asked.

"Um, yeah...just forgot to breath I guess." She didn't let go of his hand though.

"Uh, well I was thinking that for lunch, maybe we three could hop a taxi and find our way to some pizza." Harry said trying to change the subject.

"Harry Potter, are you asking me on a real date?" Susan asked with mock surprise.

"Well, I figure if your gonna do something..."

"Do it right? Yes Harry that sounds lovely, but what about Dumbledore, what about protection?" She asked. Harry suddenly smiled evilly.

"Well I don't find Dumbledore attractive, and I am on a charm that makes me unable to reproduce until close to graduation, but what does that have to do with our date?" Susan promptly began spluttering again as her face went below the water.

"Uh, okay thank you for asking Harry." She coughed out as he sat up and dragged her to the side of the tub. She unthinkingly sat herself in his lap since she didn't release her arms from around his neck. Which meant she was now sitting sideways with his erection pressed along her thighs toward her knees, and her breasts were smashed perfectly against his chest. She saw the pain on his face from the position and opened her legs slightly, jumping as he popped up and bumped her clit. Their eyes locked and she waited for him to kiss her but he just looked into her eyes.

"I wont kiss you," He whispered.

"Why not." She asked breathlessly. Resisting the urge to squeaze her thighs around him.

"You set the pace, it's all up to you." He whispered back, both were oblivious to the Veela floating beside them with her eyes closed but a smile on her face.

"Harry that's not fair!" Susan said.

"It's fair to me, if I just want a quick shag I can always see Gabrielle. No offense ma petite amie." He said to the girl in question.

"None taken Harry, I live to serve." She said happily.

"But Harry...I want to do things...to you. And I won't if it's my choice." She whispered back to him.

"Then that means you aren't ready, and I refuse to force anything. I had a lot of fun at the Afterparty." She cut him off.

"So did I,"

"But we aren't playing a game now, and even at that party you were dared to do it, but you were told you could leave at any time. I won't force you to do anything that you think is not right. Even if you do feel really really nice where you are right now."

She leaned in and kissed him quickly. Just at the point where she wanted to deepen the kiss he started to pull away. She made a growling noise in the back of her throat, it was infuriating and frustrating that he could act like he didn't want this as badly as she did. She pulled his head toward her and begged entrance to his mouth to which he promptly replied in kind. But before it got much further she stopped and got quickly out of the tub, finding more fresh towels on the counter and cursing those voyeuristic elves as she wrapped herself in one. Let him see how it felt to be frustrated, by her at least. She smiled at him as she walked out to get ready for their lunch date.

*************************SFTP************************

Not long after found the three walking out the front door. Molly had not been pleased with the plan, especially seeing a girl on each arm of her daughter's boyfriend, but really had no choice in the matter. She knew Harry could protect them if need be, and she knew her daughter well enough that if she did not know what was happening in her absence, she could handle the fall out.

After watching the door close behind them she decided she needed to talk to Ginny in any case and quickly penned a letter and sent it off with Pig. Ron was nowhere to be seen and she assumed he was still Moping about in his room. She remembered that lovely but strange girl Luna had a long time crush on her youngest boy and headed to the Floo.

Taking a pinch of Floo powder she called out "The Quibbler" and waited until the face of her old friend, looking much worse for the wear, popped in.

"Ah Molly, what can I do for you on this glorious day? You haven't per chance Floo'd about the infestation of Gnarlacks have you?" He head asked.

"No Xeno, I was actually calling to see if Luna might come over here for a few days this summer, I need a little help around the house, and I know my Ronald has been in a bad mood lately."

"Ah, the same Ronald that Luna was infatuated with for the first 12 years of her life? I trust you will keep an eye on those two?"

"Yes Xeno, I don't fancy grandchildren from him any time soon either, but it would be nice to see them together wouldn't it?"

Xeno nodded his head for a moment, "Alright, perhaps Luna can catch or photograph a few of the Gimlets that are running around that place...um...wherever that place is." He said sounding confused.

"Don't worry about it, I can come get her and bring her back through the Floo, is she available now?"

Xeno pulled his head from the fire but the connection remained open, Molly heard him calling to her,

"Skunkweed?"

"Yes Daddy?"

"Would you like to go over to...um...wherever it is that Ron and Molly Weasley are right now? Molly mentioned needing some help and Ron is apparently lonely."

"Yes Daddy that sounds lovely, maybe I can catch one of the Gimlets that is running around there."

"That's what I thought, of course you know there are only a few ways to dislodge them?"

"Yes Daddy, I promise to be very careful if the chance arises."

He stuck his head back in, "Molly she can come right over, do you think she will be staying the night?"

"Actually if she would like to stay a few days or the rest of the summer I think that would be lovely."

"Alright she will go pack some things, perhaps you should Floo over in about half an hour?"

Molly nodded, "Thank you Xeno, I will do that." After he nodded the connection was closed. Molly was wondering what on earth a Gimlet was and how you dislodged one. She supposed Ron would be able to help her with the project.

*************************SFTP************************
Harry and the girls began walking in no particular direction keeping an eye out for a taxi. Harry figured at worst he could lead them back with his mental map; which was constantly updating. They turned a corner and found themselves on the Euston Road and followed it along for a ways. Suddenly spotting a cab Harry attempted to signal weakly. Gabrielle surprised them by whistling and the cab pulled quickly over.

"Where to mate?" The cabby asked them.

"Uh, first I don't have any cash on me do you take credit?" Harry asked. The cabby nodded.

"Well were looking for pizza and were not familiar with the area." Harry said still more than a bit nervous.

"Well no need for a cab then, there be a Dominoes 'bout half mile from 'ere. Left on Baron, Left on White Lion, can't miss it." The cabby said tipping his hat and pulling away just as quickly as he stopped.

"Huh, guess there is more to do around here than I thought." Harry said shrugging. They walked the way they were told and were soon at the pizza place. They only did Delivery or Carry-out so they ordered a Pepperoni and waited the fifteen minutes in awkward silence. Gabrielle kept smiling back and forth between the two thinking it was cute.

Once they had the Pizza and a couple of drinks Harry asked about a park and got directions to Regents Park about a mile and a half away. The girls decided the walk would be nice so they set off in that direction, finally some idle chatter began and soon they were all giggling at small jokes and in general having a good time.

Once at the park Harry took out a napkin and looking around quickly, transfigured it into a picnic blanket. They ate their fill of Pizza and lay back on the blanket cuddling with Harry and looking up at the sky.

"You know I never got to just lay and watch the clouds before? When I'm playing Quidditch I don't have time to enjoy the view, and when I was a kid my cousin and his friends would always hassle me." Harry said.

Susan gave him a peck on the cheek. "It's not fair Harry, how could Dumbledore leave you there?"

"I don't know, he said it was the safest place for me til I came of age. Something about blood protection wards."

"But didn't Voldemort use your blood in the...um" Susan trailed off not wanting to bring up bad memories on such a lovely day.

"Yeah, I hadn't thought of that." Harry said his mood darkening. "Why did I have to go back there after that? I mean, I can forgive most of it before then if the protective wards are true. But after fourth year they would have been useless against him, though I suppose Death Eaters still could not have got in."

"That is enough of unpleasantness, so you say you never get to look at ze clouds?" Gabrielle asked him to which he shook his head.

"Well when I was a girl I used to lay in the field and try to find shapes in the clouds." Susan said, quickly pointing at one. "See, there is a bunny rabbit, um a rabbit with a unicorn horn." She corrected.

"Hmm, wonder if that's the crumple horned Snorkack that Luna is always on about?" Harry asked before pointing one of his own out. "Look, that one looks like a snitch!"

Both girls smiled at his boyish tone, glad to have been witness to the all too brief glimpse of Harry the boy, not Harry the adult, or Harry the Hero.

"Boys and Quidditch, Honestly!" Susan snickered.

"I see ze kitten playing with ball of yarn." Gabrielle said pointing and they nodded.

"Harry this is really nice." Susan said taking his hand in hers and holding it up. She examined the way her hand fit into his and decided it was a very nice match.

"It is isn't it? I haven't been out of that house in over a week, and before that I hadn't been out of Privet Drive for a month." He did not see the looks of sorrow on the girl's faces.

"Zen we need to do zis at least weekly." Gabrielle said kissing his cheek and grabbing his other hand in her own. Beside him he felt Susan nod into his shoulder.

"As great as this is, I have a letter to read, and some training to do. Are you two ready to head back?" Harry asked both girls nodded and stood before pulling him to his feet. Looking around once again he vanished the trash and the blanket.

They began walking back and Susan didn't release his hand. After what they had already done and seen with each other, it was interesting that this small gesture meant so much to both of them. If Harry had to guess at his feelings he guessed that this was as close to a normal relationship as he had been involved in yet. Moving slowly was not something he had tried, unless you counted the last six years with Mione.

He already missed her terribly, and Ginny. Both had quickly become a part of his life and he was finding it difficult to function without their presence. Susan and Gabrielle were doing a good job as substitutes but couldn't wait to see the other two again. Especially if something happened between him and Susan.

The last thought caused him to shiver as he squeezed the girl's hand. She looked at him and caught the bit of lust that he quickly hid. And she grinned in spite of wanting to move slow, she liked knowing he wanted her.

They chatted more as their hands swung between them and Gabrielle trailed behind slightly enjoying the view. As they neared Camden Town once again Harry was suddenly on guard. The change in scenery was accompanied by a change in the feeling of safety. He reached back and took Gabrielle's hand in his free one and scanned the area as they continued talking.

Nearing Euston Road again Harry got some sort of tingle that told him there was danger just before a man stepped in front of them wielding a gun. "Aft'noon govena, I thinks if you don't want either of 'ese lovely birds to get 'urt you'll be 'andin over your wallet. Now."

Harry tightened his grip on Susan's hand as he pulled Gabrielle behind him and his hand slowly made it's way toward his wand. "And why would I do that?" Harry asked trying to distract him."

The man looked confused for a moment. "Cuz I got a gun and you don, now come along no sudden movements."

Just then a car backfired and the man pulled the trigger. Before Harry knew what was happening the most solid magical shield he had ever seen had sprung up before them and the bullet had ricocheted off into the side of a building. At the same time the man had been thrown a few feet by an invisible force and did not appear to be moving.

"Harry? You better drop the shield before a Muggle sees it." Susan whispered in a shaky voice.

"You mean you didn't cast it?" Harry asked curiously.

"No, I can't cast a Protego like that literally to save my life. Gabrielle?"

"Non! I left my wand at home." They both looked up at Harry, the shield still stood visible in the air before them, clearly magical as the semi transparent energy seemed to shift and swirl.

"I thought a Protego didn't work against solid objects or dark curses?" Harry asked as he examined the shield.

"Then I guess this isn't a Protego. But Harry, how are you doing this?" Susan asked.

"I dunno, we better hurry back and hope it fades before we get there or that nobody sees it..." Thinking quickly he cast a notice-me-not charm on all three of them and hoped that if they walked on either side of the shield nobody would notice.

Quickly they found themselves back inside the front entry of Number 12 and made there way upstairs to the training room. Harry attempted to cast a finite several times before sitting down in worry on the couch.

"Accidental Magic, it has to be." Harry said.

"Non Master, you may have done zis on accident, but zis is too focused to be accidental magic." Gabrielle replied.

"But maybe it was triggered like Accidental Magic?" Susan asked. That got Harry thinking, he had just been thinking of how nice it was to hold Susan's hand, taking it slow, sort of. And how he thought that it might be the way to discover the difference between Love and Lust. When the situation had changed and his girls were threatened he must have reacted instinctively but he still had no idea how to get rid of it.

"Give me a minute." Harry said as he closed his eyes and sank into his center. Once there he re-examined the memory and put it in its proper place, he felt a wash of magic and opened his eyes to see the shield had gone. He was immediately hugged by both girls and Susan began sobbing.

He pulled her into his lap and held her for a few minutes until she regained the ability to speak. "You saved our lives again Harry."

"But it was an accident, please don't tell me you owe me a life debt, that bullet could have been heading for me rather than either of you." He said trying to head off what he knew she was thinking.

"Multiple life debts aren't going to change anything, but I will let you off the hook this time mister." She said kissing his cheek with a smile, but the tears were still falling, he guessed they had gone from tears of fear to tears of relief.

"The fact remains that accident or not, you were my real life Superman today." Susan said. He just stared at her blankly. "You haven't seen Superman?" She asked incredulously, her tears disappearing as her fear was replaced with Rage.

"The only reason I got your Jaws joke was because Dudley watched a re-run on the Tellly and I heard the music and saw the shark fin in the water. I never went to the movies or got to watch much Telly growing up." He shrugged before she leaned in and kissed him on the lips for a good thirty seconds. She did not press for a deeper kiss, it was light and her lips still tingled from the soft contact afterward.

She considered him for a moment before continuing. "In Superman the Movie the bad guy shoots a gun at him and Lois Lane in an alley, He catches the bullet as the man runs away and tells her the guy missed." She said, he nodded once he got the reference.

"What are you going to do about zis Master? Zat was impressive!" Gabrielle exclaimed.

"I don't know. My magic has been all wonky since my birthday, possibly since I learned the prophecy and destroyed half of Dumbledore's office..." He trailed off looking with fear at the two of them.

"Hermione and Ginny told us that you are the Chosen one, they said that V..that he already knew that much so it was okay to tell us." Susan said before panic could set in. He breathed a sigh of relief.

"If you really want to date me Susie, and this goes for you as well Pet, I can teach you Occlumency and let you in on the why's of what were doing." Harry told them.

Gabrielle shook her head, "It is no matter to me Harry, I live to serve you, you may send me away or keep me but I will be with you, prophecy or no!"

He smiled at her before turning his eyes on Susan. "Uh, I would like to know Harry, if I am going to fall for you, and have to share you with at least three witches, then I would like to know the whole of it." Susan said quietly.

"In for a penny?" Harry asked her and she nodded.

"In for a pound."
