Faith is Stronger (Harry Potter Fan fiction)

Chp. 26 Fireworks, Horses, and Irishmen

Author’s Note: Two in one night! You all must love me, I know. ^-^ Haha, anywho, this dedication goes to the amazing cover maker who made the new cover like months ago. @Everyonedreams who made this cover, it is honestly a favorite mostly because of that Celtic looking button in the title. I’m weird like that. Thanks to my twin also for helping me pick which new cover to put up. ^-^

All credits to Harry Potter and the world of Harry Potter go to J.K. Rowling and all her magicalness. <3

Jacky’s P.o.V.

Draco kisses me quickly as we approach the Fat Lady. He was still slightly flushed and the light in his eyes made my body quiver. I’ve never seen anything quite like it.

Speaking of bodies, my own was quite sore. I took pride in the fact that I wasn’t a virgin anymore. I knew I was a bit young. Seventeen after all— Hey I can do magic outside of Hogwarts now! — But it was with Draco and that’s all that mattered.

“Good bye” I whisper as he lets go of my hand and walks away. He smiles back at me and continues on. I watch until he disappears and then mutter the password. The Fat Lady smiles at me, winking as she opened. I blush and walk in.

“HAPPY BIRTHDAY!”

I scream and jump back as the cheers hit me. Colin catches me and straightens me up. I thank him and turn around to look at the tower. It was completely decorated in bright yellows and reds and blues, from streamers to posters and ribbons.

I chuckle at the blown up pictures of me that hung everywhere, along with many banners. Dean and Seamus’ work. Hermione and Ginny were standing in the middle with a table with a huge cake on it. Dobby and Antie stood by it, grinning happily.

“Oh this is wonderful!” I cry, smiling happily. The entire house seems to take a breath and a sliver of guilt hit me. My depression was affecting them as well. I shake it off and walk forward. Ophelia comes forward and hugs me tightly.

“Happy birthday!” She squeals. I chuckle and hug her back. She takes out her wand and proudly waves it at the cake. The candles light up and I see that they were in lined up to form

“It’s amazing! Thank you guys so much.” I say gratefully. Dennis comes up and forces a birthday hat on my head; it twirls around and sings the tune for the birthday song. The entire house begins to sing it while I blush; they sang loudly and creatively added their own lines.

“Fred and George send their regards as well.” Ron explains as a huge round of canaries suddenly burst from one of the platters of food that lined the walls. They flitter around me before bursting into a shower of sparks that imprinted “Happy Birthday” into the ceiling. Oh…McGonagall is not going to like that.
