Harry Potter and the Connubialis Hex/The Burrow/Mrs. Weasley/Harry gets afterthoughts

From Create Your Own Story

Harry's smile faded quickly. All of a sudden, everything came back at him. He was waking up from a dream, one that was too good to be true, that guilt stabs you like a knife in your stomach. Harry freaked out.

Molly Weasley saw the change in Harry's face. It frightened her. "Harry? What's wrong?"

Harry was looking at an invisible point on the wall and couldn't take his eyes off it. "What's wrong? Everything's wrong." He turned his head to look at Mrs. Weasley. "What we did was wrong. What "I" did was wrong."

"Harry, it's not wrong. It just happened. We both wanted it, nobody imposed it to the other."

"Yes I did. You pushed me back and then I casted that spell."

"What spell?"

"Conni..." He was about to say "Connilingus" but he knew that wasn't it. "Damn, I can't even remember it!" Harry was so confused.

"You didn't cast any spell, honey." she said with a reassuring tone. "You wanted to be cheered and I just took care of you."

She didn't remember that he drew his wand and forced her to obey to his lust? De he just imagined that? Was she lying to him to protect him from his guilt? Or was the spell he casted (though he wasn't sure anymore he really did it) powerful enough so the person didn't know it happened?

"And don't worry, nobody will know about it, Harry. It will be our secret." He was now staring back at that invisible point on the wall. The thought of telling the truth to Mr. Weasley was so absurd, Harry believed her. And Ginny... He couldn't imagine how much he would hurt her if she knew he cheated her. It would hurt her too much. And with her own mother? She would be devastated.

Harry was lost for words. He remained silent for a moment, everything spinning in his head. He suddenly fell very tired.

"I think it's better if I go now."

"Don't be too hard on yourself. You're still a good boy."

Harry dressed and got out of the house. He walked a few meters outside and apparated back at Grimmauld Place.
