章 109: Harry’s Engagement
"Daphne"
She wasn't thrilled with the idea but she had become very close with Daphne and said that if it had to be anyone, then at least it was someone she loved like a sister. She told him more about her summer and how Daphne had elected to not go on holiday with her family in favor of staying with Megan and making sure she was okay.
She talked about how when she woke up from helping Cedric that her thrill at the success with that was quickly destroyed by the report of his going through the Veil. She told of the deep depression and how Luna had helped her by making sure she knew that the bond was still active and therefore Harry wasn't really gone. She told him that it was the only thing that gave her hope until he arrived in her dreams. Harry turned and hugged her tightly whispering apologies for leaving her behind.
Harry told her about his studies while he was away and how he was possibly ready to take his NEWTS. Megan blushed and looked down in shame as she had given up and didn't do as they had planned by taking her OWLS.
Harry hugged her. "I'm sorry baby, it's my fault and there's nothing I can ever do to make up for the pain I've cause you."
She pulled him tighter. "Did you do it on purpose?"
"No but I still hurt you."
"No you didn't. It was Riddle and this Azrael character you told me about who separated us. When I get my hands on either one of them, they are going to pay."
They heard a low laugh behind them as Azrael faded into view. Megan gasped as the Grim Reaper was now standing in front of her. Harry instinctively moved her behind him as he said "Not funny great grandfather. Do something to show her what you really look like."
Azrael waved his hand and the reaper faded from Megan's eyes and left her looking at the image Harry was accustomed to. "I like her. She has spunk just like your mother. I'm assuming that she said yes since that worked on her?"
"Yes grandfather. She did."
"Good, congratulations to the both of you."
"Um… not to sound rude but why are you here?"
Azrael chuckled "Other than hearing my name being spoken about in a threatening manner (Megan blushed) I came to return a few objects to you."
Harry smiled "Was that the only reason?"
"No, Lily and Dorea were dying to know what she said."
Harry face palmed himself and let out a groan. "That was almost as bad as the Sirius jokes."
Azrael laughed and bowed low to Megan. "It was a pleasure to meet the future lady of my family. I look forward to speaking with you again soon."
Megan stuttered out "It was nice meeting you too and I don't mean to sound rude but I hope it isn't too soon. I also apologize for that way I spoke about you."
Azrael laughed as he faded from view. Megan finally asked "Harry was that really…"
"Yep"
"How?"
"Family secret"
"Ass"
"Yes, you do have a rather nice one. I can still remember the show you gave me the morning before the third task,"
She blushed but asked. "As good as Fleur's in leather pants?"
"Told you, huh?"
"Yep"
"Bugger"
"Harry?"
"Yeah?"
"I love you."
"I love you too Megs. Oh crap!"
"What's wrong?"
"Poppy"
"Don't worry baby. I already thought about her and had mum invite her tonight."
"You know, you are the best!"
"I know and you know what's even better?"
"What's that?"
"You're lucky to have me."
"I already knew that."
Harry slipped his arm around her and gave her a quick kiss before they walked back up to the house to get ready for dinner.
...
As soon as Poppy stepped through the floo, Harry grabbed her in a hug and spun her around. It took her a moment to figure out what was going on but when she did, she screamed out his name and hugged him tightly to her. "Oh, my boy, I thought I lost you."
"Never Poppy."
When he placed her back on her feet, she straightened out her arms to get a good look at him. She then let go and pulled her wand and started waving it all around him.
"Yep, definitely alive. No more malnourishment. Good muscle tone. Strong heart. On my, your core had increased dramatically."
She pulled up the side of his shirt and looked at the scars from Victor's bite. She nodded her head. "The potions worked well then. You've gained a lot of muscle mass and quite a few more scars. Are those sword thrusts?"
"Yes ma'am. I trained a bit while I was gone."
"There's no way you gained all this in six weeks."
"No ma'am. It was slightly longer than that. I will explain later."
