Okay guys. I was thinking about Harry pairings and this popped into my head. It's Uawe universe during the sixth book. I'm not adding it to the story but thought that you would enjoy it given the current discussions. Happy reading.
The two older Weasley brothers were sitting around the kitchen table with the marauders playing a muggle card game that Remus had taught them called poker.
Bill examined his cards before grabbing two of his every flavored beans. "I'll see you and raise you one." He said before leaning back in his seat. "So this thing with Ginny and Harry is a little strange. Can you believe they're dating in the book?"
Remus gave him a look of surprise at his tone. "I think they make a good couple. Sort of remind of James and Lily."
Sirius snorted. "In apperance only which is a little creepy itself. But if you really want to think that way you need to switch the roles around."
Remus gave him an amused look. "I can see Harry as Lily but Ginny as James?"
The dog animagus raised an eyebrow. "James stalked Lily for 6 years. You can't see the resemblance?"
He continued as the others chuckled. "Besides as spirited as that girl is she's going to be just like her mother. Not that that's a bad thing but it's not what Harry needs."
He paused to place some of his own beans in the pot. "I love my godson but he has a tendency to let the ones he cares about walk all over him. Hermione is a prime example and if he does get together with Ginny she's going to rule the roost."
Bill nodded as he waited for his brother to work out what he wanted to do with his cards. "Did you tell Harry to stay away from her?" He asked curiously.
Sirius quickly shook his head. "I told him to follow his heart and not do something just because it was expected. He doesn't think of her that way at the moment but that might change."
He reached over and knocked Charlie on the head. "Hey are you going to fold or play?"
The dragon handler growled back at him and threw down his cards.
Bill stared at his brother in shock. "What the hell was that for?"
Sirius gave the man an assessing look. "He likes Harry and he's mad that Ginny claimed him first." He smiled when Charlie blushed.
"Really?" Bill barked out a laugh. "You and Harry? I can sort of see that."
"Why not? They spend most of their free time together handling each other's broomsticks." Sirius teased causing Remus to groan.
"He doesn't even like boys." Charlie mumbled, his face beet red.
"Says who? Harry has no idea what he likes at the moment." Sirius pointed out.
"He has a crush on that Cho girl," was the quick reply.
"So? I love females of every shape and size but when I was 16 I had a really enjoyable fling with this Ravenclaw boy. I don't think gender matters so much as who you're comfortable with." Sirius answered.
Charlie looked up hopefully. "So you wouldn't mind? I am a bit older than him."
"Harry might act like a child sometimes but in a lot of ways he's more mature than anyone his age." Remus pointed out. "I think he would benefit from someone older."
Bill smirked as he slapped a hand on his brother's back. "Green light buddy. Now you just need to fight Ginny for him." He laughed as he dodged the smack.
Sirius leveled a look at the dragon tamer. "Two things. I'm all for Harry enjoying his youth and being a teenager but if there are any 'happy endings' I don't want to know about them. And for merlin's sake be safe." He grinned when Charlie blushed again before hardening his face. "And if you hurt him there won't be a hole deep enough for you to hide in."
