Capítulo 107: A Proposal and a Promise

Harry popped out of the suite and landed on the lawn of a medium sized country manor. He took a quick look around and thought of how peaceful it was here much like being outside at the Weasleys. That thought brought back a little of the pain but he pushed it down as he walked up to the front door of the manor. He was about to knock on the door, when suddenly his stomach knotted up at what he was about to do. It took a minute to calm himself and with a deep breath he rapped on the door as he knew he couldn't wait any longer.

It was perhaps a minute later when a small house elf appeared at the door wearing a bright yellow sundress. "May I help you Milord?"

"Yes my dear, I need to speak with Lord Jones urgently. Could you ask him if he is available for a private meeting?"

Jiffy looked up at him for a minute and didn't sense any ill intent. In fact, her reading of the cloaked man comforted her as if she knew this wizard. With a bow and a wave of her hand, she invited him to enter the protected foyer before popping off to inform her master.

Lord Jones came into the foyer quickly and asked "May I help you Sir?"

Harry held out his empty hands to show Reggie he was not a threat and said "Yes Sir, I find myself needing to have a discussion with you over a private matter. Could you spare a moment of your time?"

Reggie's eyebrows rose and his voice sounded guarded. "I might have a few minutes. If you would follow me?"

Reggie stepped over to a door that led directly to his office. Just as they were about to enter, Luna floated through the room and stopped dead. Her head tilted for a second before she smiled and said "Hello Harry. You're looking a lot better. Have you finally showed up to ask Uncle Reggie for Megan's hand?"

Harry shook his head and held out his arms to her as Reggie looked on with an astonished expression. Harry softly said "It's good to see you too Luna. I've missed my best friend. The answer to your question is yes. I just hope Reggie doesn't throw me out."

"He won't besides, if he kills you, you will get to go home again."

Harry chuckled and shook his head. "I never thought of it that way. It sounds like a win-win for me. Maybe you could give me some of your confidence. I'm so scared right now I'm about to pee my pants."

She giggled and hugged him once again. "I'll go tell Mistress Megs you are here."

Reggie smiled at him and motioned for the door. "Shall we?"

As soon as they were in the office, Reggie said "Please take off that cloak so I can see you. You had us very concerned for a while until you showed up in Megan's dreams. It took her and Luna to convince us that it was real."

Harry blushed. "I know Sir and I apologize for everything that I have put your family through but the whole thing was quite out of my control and the dream visit was the only way I could contact her at the time."

"Would you care to explain that?"

Harry smiled "I wish I could but most of it is shrouded in family secrecy. I will say that my Mum showed me a way to speak with Megan."

"Harry, not to sound cold but Lily is dead."

"Yes Sir but then so was I at the time."

"Then how are you standing here talking to me?"

Harry chuckled. "Well Sir that is where the family secrets come into play."

Reggie shook his head. "So, the reason behind your request for a meeting?"

"To be honest Sir, I missed her pretty badly and she was my sole reason for returning in the first place. My time away has made me realize how special Megan is and how much I love and need her in my life. As I have taken up my titles, I have a year to marry or else they will be stripped from me and passed to the next generation. Sir, I… crap… I know I haven't showed it but she is my world and I can't think of living life without her. Would you give me permission to ask her to marry me?"

Reggie smiled and said "I'd like nothing better than to have you as a son-in-law now that you're actually acting like a man who truly loves my daughter. I watched you together before the third task and I thought you were well suited for each other at the time. I was even impressed at how you always considered Megan's opinion but I was concerned that you didn't love her as much as she did you."

"Sir, I can promise you that I do. I will swear it on my life and magic if that is what you require. As you know, my life before Hogwarts was not the best and showing emotion was always a dangerous thing for me to do and that doesn't even take into consideration what happened this year with the people who knew me best. All of this has left me a little guarded when dealing with others and it is a problem that I am working on but I promise you that even though I was guarded, she knew what was in here." (He finished by patting his chest.)

"Very well Harry. But know that if you ever hurt my daughter, I will hunt you down."

Harry nervously looked at him and asked "Was that a yes?"

Reggie chuckled. "Yes Harry. It was definitely a yes. I'm afraid of what would happen to me if Megan and Kathleen found out I said no. I do have some conditions; your disappearances need to stop as I don't like seeing my daughter so upset. However something you said raises a question. How is it six weeks is enough time for you to come here claiming your undying love for my daughter?"

Harry looked him straight in the eye. "It is my hope that the long disappearances are over even though the two worst ones have not been entirely my doing, I realize that I hurt Megan. I can only promise to take her with me from now on?"

"Don't get ahead of yourself son and you still didn't answer the last part."

"That is another part of the family secret but I can tell you this, it may have been six weeks for you but it was six years for me. In every day that passed, Megan was the first person I thought of when I woke up and the last person I thought of when I went to sleep."

Reggie frowned "She said that in the dream, you wouldn't see her for a while because you had other things to do. What has changed and what could be more important than my daughter?"

Harry smiled "Nothing and no one is more important than she is to me. Every day of those six years, I felt like I was missing an important part of me but what I was doing was too important for our future for me to come back any sooner."

Reggie laughed. "I'm glad to hear it son. Now, I expect you to be staying for dinner. In fact, I expect you here everyday until it is time to go back to school."

"Yes Sir. Um… do you think it will be safe to go out there?"

Reggie smirked "Of course it will be… for me."

Reggie stepped to the door and cracked it open for a second. The sight he saw caused him the quickly shut it once again. He turned to look at Harry and said "You have quite the welcoming committee out there Harry."

Harry nervously asked "Does she look mad?"
