Patronuses in defence against the dark arts today. I could not wait. I'd been practicising all week, I still hadn't got much more than a whisp but I knew that once I was put under pressure by the teacher I would definetly be able to do it. Ron, Hermione, Harry (Yes, his name is Harry now) and I walked into the Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom, excitement was in the air. I sat in the front row next to Hermione while Harry and Ron sat at the desk behind us.
"Now class," Proffesor Lupin started. "Today you will be doing an assesment of the Patronus Charm. I do not expect all of you to acheive it, but I hope that at least one of you does." He winks at Harry, and he grins back. "You have fifteen minutes now to quickly practice then I will call each of you up one by one to perform the charm in front of my self and the rest of the class."
Each of us go to a different corner of the room. I find myself in a nice section away from everyone else.
"Expecto Patronum." I say multiple times, thinking of my happiest memory. The time when Fred and George transfigured Ron's teddy bear into a spider. I wasn't sure if that was the strongest memory I had, but it eventually worked.
After about six tries and just whisps of silver smoke, it finally worked. A beautiful silver doe bursted out the end of my wand. I looked around to see if anyone saw it, but everyone was all to busy concentrating on their patronuses. Harry and Ron were in a corner together talking, I decided to walk over to them.
"Um, why aren't you practising. We kind of have to show the charm to the teacher." I say.
"Oh, but we can do the charm Ginny. We've known how to do the charm since 4th year. It really isn't that difficult." Ron said. I laughed, they were just to embarrassed because they couldn't do it.
"Prove it then." I speculate.
"Nah, I think we should wait for the big reveal." Harry said. I looked between the two of them then walked back to my corner of the room and continued practising.
Five minutes later Proffesor Lupin told us to sit back down in our seats.
"We won't be going in alphabetical order today, but I will be calling you up one by one randomly." Everyone nodded. "Okay, who will we have first... Let's have Miss Brown."
Lavender Brown walked up to the front of the class, "Expecto Patronum" She said and to know suprise nothing happened. She wasn't very bright after all. Lavender went to sit down. Next up was Terry Boot, he managed to get a small whisp but nothing spectacular. Quite a few more people went up then it was Ron's turn. I wondered who would be laughing at the end of it.
"Expecto Patronum" Ron spoke clearly. Believe it or not something more then just a whisp of silver smoke came out. Out came a crup or what I think muggles call a 'Jack Russel terrior'. I was suprised but then I remembered that Ron wasn't actually that dumb.
Next it was finally my turn. I walked up to the front of the classroom. "Expecto Patronum." Out came as expected the beautiful doe. The whole class stared, it really was pretty spectacular and elegant. No one stared as much as Harry, he was staring at me with this look of pity one his face. I wondered why.
Harry's POV This just got real. Ginny, the love of my life is officially my soulmate. I always knew that we had a special connection and here is the proof. I can't do my patronus now, It'll embarass her, not only that but she'll hate me for the rest of my life. When, I go up I'll ask Moony if I can do it later. He'll understand this happened to my Mum and Dad as well when it came to performing patronus charms in their sixth year. Moony then called me up when Ginny sat down.
Lupin's POV IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN. Ginny and Harry are just like Lily and James. Same patronuses, same hair colours. it couldn't be more perfect. I decided to get Harry up next to see what he would do. Would he do a loyal, kind Harry, protect Ginny's social life and his own for that matter or would he be the Pratty Harry and perform it for his own pride. I hoped it would be the former and believe it or not. Harry came straight to me.
"Moony, I can't do it. You saw it, she has a Doe. It means we're soulmates, if I do it she'll get embarrassed big time. You I can do it though. You did teach Ron and I in fourth year." Harry whispered to me.
"This is what I expected you to do Harry, and I am proud of you for choosing the right decision. It's exactly what your father did. I'd like you to show me after class though, I know you can do it but I need to acess it formally."
"Okay, Moony. Thanks for understanding."
"No Problem, Pronglet."
Ginny's POV I went back and sat down in my seat. Next it was Harry's turn, I figured he'd probably be able to do it considering Ron could and turned out to be telling the truth. What I didn't think would happen was for Harry to walk up to and to talk to Proffesor Lupin. The two were speacking quietly so I couln't hear what they were saying. I'm betting Harry couldn't do the charm and was trying to get out of it because Proffesor Lupin and his Dad were best friends. Believe it or not Harry then came back to his chair and slumped back into his chair. He didn't talk for the rest of the class.
Finally we got to the last person, Hermione. She got up confidently and performed her charm. "Expecto Patronum." Out burst a pouncing silver otter. It really was magnificent. Deep down I giggled and my heart almost melted. Jack Russel Dogs (Ron's Patronus) are known to chase otters (Hermione's patronus). It was just so cute. They were meant for each. I couldn't wait for Hermione to become my sister in-law. Yes I was making assumptions this early.
The bell then rang for the end of the period. Everyone bustled out of the room except for Harry. I decided to go out but wait at the door and peer in to see if Potter would do the charm. Harry stood next to Proffesor and managed to perform the charm successfully. I stared at what came out, thunderstruck. Out came a stag. Almost the same as my doe. It all made sense now. Harry didn;t want to embarrass me, Doe's and Stag's are soulmates. I was so thankful.
Harry picked up his bag and walked to the door where I was standing. I quickly backed away but then when he came through the door I couldn't help myself. I jumped on him and kissed him on the cheek.
"Thankyou" I whispered. I really was thankful. I then let go then left down the hall leaving Harry clutching his cheek where I had kissed him. He really was a lost cause.
