Chapter 13: Valentine's Forgiveness

Sunday, January 5th, 1992

When Harry got to his room there was a package with a note on his bed.

Harry,

Your father left this in my possession before he died.
It is time it was returned to you. Use it well.

He knew the handwriting was Dumbledore's, but didn't know why he hadn't sent it on Christmas to Bones Manor.

He opened the package and tried on the cloak that was inside and saw that his body disappeared and before he even recalled making the decision he put the cloak on completely and snuck out of the Ravenclaw Common Room and made his way to the Hufflepuff Common Room and tapped the appropriate barrel to open the entrance. He got lucky and one of the older girls was going up the stairs to the dorms and followed her up and found the door to the first year girl's dorm.

Harry saw the trunks in front of the girl's beds so knew which ones he wanted. He went to the first bed and opened the curtains and slipped in. Hannah jumped up and looked around and when Harry showed himself he had to put his hand over her mouth to stop her from screaming.

"Shhh, Hannah. You don't want to wake everyone up do you?" asked Harry.

"How did you get up here without setting off the alarm, Harry?" asked Hannah.

"I followed an older girl up. Maybe the cloak protected me." said Harry.

"Well what did you come up here for?" asked Hannah.

"I thought you and Susan might want a goodnight kiss." said Harry.

"Oh well I guess I better get all I want because if you surprise Susan like you did me she might just kill you." said Hannah pulling Harry into a kiss.

After several minutes of snogging they separated.

"Well I do think that was an appropriate goodnight kiss. It was nice knowing you, Harry." said Hannah.

"You don't think Susan will really do anything do you?" asked Harry nervously.

"We'll see." said Hannah.

Harry put the cloak back on and went over and slipped in Susan's bed and removed his cloak when he saw that she was already awake.

"You're lucky that I heard you and Hannah or you might've needed the Hospital Wing, Harry. We'll talk about this more tomorrow." said Susan pulling Harry into a kiss.

After double the time that Hannah got the curtains opened.

"Hey no fair. I didn't get that long." said Hannah.

"Well come in here then." said Susan pulling Hannah into the bed and shutting the curtains.

After some very interesting snogging Harry left the Hufflepuff Common Room. It was lucky that he left when he did otherwise he would've ran right into Professor Snape and Professor Quirrell. He went into an unused classroom to hide until they went away and saw a strange looking mirror. It showed his parents behind him smiling at him, but he was older and Hannah and Susan were there with him and they were both pregnant. He didn't know that he'd took the cloak off, but heard a voice behind him.

"Mr. Potter it's a bit late isn't it?" asked Dumbledore.

"I'm sorry, sir." said Harry.

"I'll forgive it this time. I see that you've discovered the delights of the Mirror of Erised. May I know what you see in the mirror?" asked Dumbledore.

"I see my parents, myself, Hannah and Susan. We're a little older and Hannah and Susan are pregnant." said Harry.

"So what you desire most is family. That is very admirable. I hope you understand to get what you want you have to live your life, Harry. The mirror is a dangerous artifact. Men have wasted away looking at it wondering if what it showed was really possible. I'll be moving the mirror to a new location tomorrow and I would ask that you don't search for it again." said Dumbledore.

"Yes, sir. I'll be heading back to bed. Thank you for the cloak, sir." said Harry.

"It was always yours, Harry." said Dumbledore.

Harry started to walk away, but turned back.

"Professor, do you mind if I ask what it is you see in the mirror?" asked Harry.

Dumbledore looked in the mirror and saw his sister Arianna and his boyfriend Gellert looking at him.

"I see myself with a pair of warm wool socks. Every Christmas I always receive books. Goodnight, Harry." said Dumbledore.

"Goodnight, Professor." said Harry putting the cloak back on and going back to the Ravenclaw dorms.

The next morning at breakfast the girls asked questions about the cloak and Harry told them that it used to be his father's and that the Headmaster had given it back to him.

"He probably knew that Amelia would go crazy knowing that he gave it to you. That's why he didn't send it on Christmas. It's odd though that he said it belonged to your father. Most Invisibility Cloaks wear out over time. Whoever made yours must've been very powerful." said Susan.

"While me and Susan both liked our visit from you we don't think you should do a repeat visit. It's a miracle that the alarm didn't go off last night." said Hannah as the mail started coming in.

An Owl landed in front of Hannah and she took the letter from it and opened it.

"It's from Mum and Dad!" said Hannah.

Dearest Hannah,

We're sorry that we couldn't get back in time
to see you back to Hogwart's. We're going to
have to be going out again shortly, but we
wanted to let you know that we'll be here
for your Easter Break.

We got your letter and hope you'll bring
Harry and Susan with you. We already
talked to Amelia and she said it was ok.
We'll see you then. We love you always.

Mum and Dad

"Well I guess we know what we'll be doing for Easter." said Susan.

"Yeah I bet Amelia jumped quickly at the chance to have you away from the manor." said Hannah causing everyone to laugh.

The three of them headed to Transfiguration and Professor McGonagall sent Harry to Professor Flitwick's Gryffindor and Slytherin class to help out.

"What are you doing here, Potter?" asked Malfoy.

"Professor McGonagall sent me, Professor Flitwick." said Harry ignoring Malfoy.

"Yes, Mr. Potter why don't you start with the back of the class and work your way. Some of the students are having issues with Unlocking Charm." said Professor Flitwick.

Harry did as he was asked and most of the Slytherin's accepted Harry's help with the obvious exception.

"You're a first year just like me. Why would I need your help?" asked Malfoy with a sneer.

"Well first off you're turning your wand the wrong way and the incantation is Alohamora not Alomora." said Harry.

After that Malfoy shut up and went back to his work. There was a similar issue with Ron Weasley, but just like Malfoy he eventually kept quiet.

Harry was told by Professor Flitwick to go on to Defense Against the Dark Arts but that Professor McGonagall wanted him in the Transfiguration class with the Gryffindor's and Slytherin's also.

At dinner time Harry sighed when he sat down.

"What's wrong?" asked Susan.

"Today's made me realize how lucky we are not to have Malfoy and Weasley in our classes." said Harry.

"That bad, huh." said Hannah.

"I guess it could've been worse." said Harry.

"I'm sorry about Ron." said Hermione.

"It's not your fault, Hermione. I don't see how he's going to pass onto next year. Same for Crabbe and Goyle." said Harry.

"Well you can't help everyone." said Susan.

Friday, February 14th, 1992

Since Susan and Hannah had barred Harry from using the Invisibility Cloak to sneak into their dorm the opportunities for snogging were few and far between. Today was Valentine's Day though and while not officially celebrated by the school Harry had made plans for it.

Harry made it down to breakfast before Hannah and Susan and when they arrived they both gave him a kiss on the lips.

"Thank you for the flowers and the chocolates, Harry." said Susan.

"They were wonderful." said Hannah.

The three of them started eating and Hermione came in and thanked Harry for the card and flower he'd given her. Hannah and Susan stared at Harry for a few minutes. Then a few minutes more.

"Harry please tell me you didn't sneak into the Gryffindor girl's dorm." said Susan.

"Uhm… I just dropped off her card and flower. I promise." said Harry.

"Harry!" said Hermione.

"It's not like I saw anything." said Harry.

"We'll talk about this later." said Hannah as Owls started flying in. One stopped in front of Hannah and Susan and dropped a pink envelope. It shook for a second then opened up and said,

"Hannah Marie Abbott and Susan Amelia Bones. I am the luckiest person alive to have the two of you agree to be with me. I love you both from now till the end of time. Happy Valentine's Day.

Love,
Harry James Potter"

"Ok, you're forgiven." said Hannah and Susan.

Author's Note: It seems like I'm on a run of short chapters for my stories, but this seemed like a good place to stop. Next chapter will be Easter break and we'll get to the end of first year. Thank you to everyone who suggested jobs for Hannah's parents. It won't play a big part till later but I'm taking the suggestion that they are working with the Department of International Magical Cooperation so they will have a big part with the Tri-Wizard Tournament later. Thank you to everyone for reading and to those who have favorited, followed and reviewed. If you haven't please favorite, follow and review to let me know what you think.
