Chapter Thirty-Three

It was too much. Natasha and Darcy started laughing. Erik had even caught that one and was chuckling at Loki's expense. He was quite fond of Darcy. She was no scientist, but she knew how people worked.

Loki, in the meanwhile, was glaring at Darcy. She grabbed herself and said, "If you make my clothes disappear, I'll have your brother pin you to the counter with his hammer, by your crotch!"

Loki actually paled. He decided to rather get another drink. Erik was still laughing when he made it to the counter. He set down his new broom to lean against the counter and leaned over to get himself a drink, only to pull his hand back when it was stung by a spell from Harry. "I'm the bartended here. I get the drinks." he said possessively. "Besides, you don't rest the broom on the bristles. You can lay it on the counter or mount it on the wall. That's the Ferrari of brooms. You will respect it or I will take it away."

Loki instantly picked the broom up. He examined the bristles and sure enough he found magic running through them. Worriedly, he asked Harry, "Did I damage it?"

Harry focussed on the broom for a second, "No, but now that you own a broom I should probably instruct you on how to care for it properly." He turned to Thor, "Do you want to give mine a try?" he asked holding his broom out to Thor.

"I actually wouldn't mind." Thor said as he took the broom. He mounted it like Harry had shown Loki and pushed off. He was smart enough to start slower, but quickly increased the speed until he was doing laps around the island too and zigzagged back and forth, every time accelerating till he broke the sound barrier for a sonic boom, before slowing down and turning, just to repeat the action.

Five minutes of that later and he landed. "Loki was right! It felt like it was part of me after a while." He was smiling ear to ear. "It isn't something I'm used to, but I could see myself enjoying a broom ride outside of battle." He said as he handed Harry the broom back.

Harry pointed to the Pensieve and asked, "Who's interested in seeing a Quiddich match?"

Before anyone could ask, Natasha explained, "It's a form of magical sport where Harry is from. It's played on brooms."

Everyone seemed interested, so Harry set up a pedestal so that all could sit around it and enter the memory. He quickly deposited the memory and instructed everyone to enter it.

Harry went along to explain the rules and point out players and positions and explain the commentary, so he was basically commenting on commentary.

"That one just tried to knock one of his opponents off their broom!" Loki said, pointing.

"It's part of the game. Nobody ever really dies, except for very rare occasions. There are people on standby to heal them should they break something." Harry explained.

"Why aren't you on the team?" Darcy asked, when Harry pointed out that he used to be a seeker.

"I was on a team for a while, but there was a war going on, so I had to retire and trained to become an officer, to help protect the people I cared for." Harry explained.

"That sucks." Darcy replied. "But hey, at least you could still go watch the games!" she tried to cheer him up.

"That was one of the few perks of being a celebrity. I got invited to all the big events." Harry laughed.

"Celebrity?" she countered.

"It was for something Harry doesn't remember. He doesn't like talking about it." Natasha interjected.

Darcy just nodded and kept on pointing out the snitch when she saw it. "You have a good eye for the seeker's position. How are you spotting the snitch so easily?" Harry commented.

"How could I not? It's just flying all over the show catching my attention." She said.

"How many of you guys could follow it?" Harry asked the group. Thor, Loki and Natasha all indicated that they could. "Let me rephrase that; who here, who's human and/or not an active member of the Avengers, for just how exceptional they are, could follow the snitch?" Nobody spoke up this time. "See?" Harry asked her.

"We should see if she wants to train with Hawkeye." Natasha speculated.

"Is he the hunky guy with the Bow?" Darcy asked. At their nod, she said, "I can go for a bit of that."

"Sorry, he's not available." Natasha interjected.

"Really!? What is it with you supers and always being in relationships?" she asked. "Let me guess, even Hulk has a girlfriend?" she asked sarcastically.

"Kind of." Harry shrugged.

"Wow." Darcy and Loki said.

"Sif is going out with his alter ego." Harry smirked.

Loki gaped. "How?!"

"Harry helped him attain some control. The Hulk is now a more willing member in the Avengers and he listens to Bruce." Thor explained.

"The world has changed so much, so quickly." Loki wondered.

When the memory ended, everybody started talking about the game. Thor decided that he wanted to be a beater, much to nobody's surprise. Loki thought he'd do well as a seeker or a chaser. The rest of the people, except for Erik lamented that they couldn't ride a broom without a magical on-board.

"Actually," Harry begun, "I have been working on something for that." He looked at Natasha. "Would you like to be the first non-magical to ride a broom on your own?" Natasha nodded vigorously. Harry smiled at her and picked up his broom. "Follow me." They were standing outside the pool area again and Harry explained, "I've been working on intent based Asgardian magic and was able to give a certain paranoid mutual acquaintance of ours a connection to a certain Dark Detector he's been begging for."

"Do you mean…?" Natasha started. She had been told of Harry's project for Fury. She did not know he had figured it out though.

"Yes, I do." Harry nodded. "So, we have confirmation of the theory. Let's see if we can make another one work, shall we?" He held the broom in his one hand and held his other hand over her heart and concentrated. It was difficult still, but after a while, he felt it click into place. It was faster than it took with Fury, though, which was promising. "I think it worked. Want to give it a go?" Harry asked holding the broom out to her.

Natasha didn't even answer. She grabbed the broom with an excited look in her eyes and mounted before taking off in one smooth movement. There wasn't even an ounce of doubt that Harry had succeeded in her. She whooped for joy and accelerated. Faster and faster, until she was a blur in the sky. Soon Harry had joined her on the other broom. Loki had graciously let him borrow it, when Harry had summoned it without asking permission. Thor had just laughed at him.

Harry and Natasha were soon playing a game of supersonic tag. It was not for the faint of heart, but that didn't describe either of the adrenaline junkies. They stayed up there for an hour, and the sun was starting to set by the time they returned for good. Harry had stopped a couple of times to get people drinks before shooting off after Natasha again.

When they landed, Natasha was still smiling. Her whole body ached from all the muscles in use during flying, especially at that speed, but it was a good burn. They were met by a few more faces. Apparently Sif had decided to join them, and she had brought Bruce. Tony and Pepper were there as well.

"What the hell!?" Tony exclaimed. "I thought only magical people could fly those!"

"I turned Natasha into a magical. I thought you knew?" Harry said with a smile.

"You what?!" Pepper and Tony exclaimed.

Harry couldn't help himself, he laughed and soon Natasha joined him. "He was able to bind the broom to me with intent magic." Natasha explained.

Tony stopped gawking. "I should have known. If Harry could make magicals, I would already be one."

"I think we all would, Tony." Pepper said as she hugged Natasha. "Hello Natasha. What's this I hear about you dating a god of sex?"

Harry looked for Loki, but he had hidden himself. "I'm going to find you and do bad things to you." he threatened.

"Not if you can't find me." Loki's voice came from everywhere at once. He was hiding quite well, but Harry knew how to drag him out of hiding.

"Tony, how are you doing? Would you like me to bond you to this broom I just so happen to have in my hand?" Harry asked.

"No!" Loki exclaimed, suddenly coming out from behind the bar. "That's my broom! You already gave it to me!"

"Are you sure? I seem to recall it was just lying there on the table for anyone to pick up…" Harry asked uncertainly.

Loki didn't care for Harry's revenge about someone spreading rumours. That was his broom. He walked up to Harry and grabbed it possessively. "Make him his own. This one's mine."

"Tony once showed me this movie about magic," Harry began. "Anyone ever seen The Sorcerer's Apprentice?" as he said it he cast a spell and suddenly Loki was trapped in a mirror.

"What did you do?" Loki asked. He was about to hit the mirror when Harry held his hand up.

"Don't you know anything about mirror magic? If you break that glass, it would be very difficult to bring you back. So be a good boy and take your punishment like a man." Harry chided, levitating the mirror to stand against the bar counter. Then he turned to Tony, "What brings you here?"

"We were called by Bruce and Sif. Apparently there's a royal Asgardian family meeting and guests are welcome. We can't stay a week, but were able to arrange two days." Pepper informed them. "If that's okay."

"You're more than welcome. This is more of a vacation and I'd love to have you here." Harry said. Then he grabbed his head as it felt like someone was knocking on it with their knuckles. Damn, he'd strayed into the reflection and Loki was tapping on his reflection's head. Reluctantly, Harry released him from the mirror.

"I do know some things about mirror magic." Loki smirked triumphantly.

"You broke our rules of engagement. It was supposed to be my turn next and then you went and spread rumours." Harry chided.

"That was not me. You have your eldest brother to thank for that." Loki smirked. "Now it's my turn again." He said as he walked away. He'd have to think hard. The last two times, Harry had both blocked the trick and then been seemingly unaffected by it.

"Eldest brother?" Tony asked. He had been wondering if he wanted Harry to put him in a mirror. It would be a new experience. But then Loki had said something interesting.

"Indeed, Odin has decided that Harry needs a family, so he adopted him." Thor said, coming up to them. Suddenly he was trapped in the mirror. Harry focussed on it to make it insubstantial. It would not do to have Thor summon his Hammer and break the mirror.

"You'll stay in there until you apologise for spreading rumours." Harry said.

Before Thor could immediately apologise, Natasha spoke up, "And five minutes after that, he'll let you go."

Thor slumped, his easy exit having been blocked. "Sorry." he mumbled and sat down on the floor on the other side of the mirror. Jane took pity on him and went to keep him company. She found the fact that her hand passed through the mirror fascinating.

"Is it out of phase?" Jane asked.

"No, Jane, it's magic." Harry replied.

"Did you remove one of its dimensions or put it to a different one?" Jane asked.

"Yes, something like that." Harry replied.

"It's out of phase." Jane said with a smug smile. Science explained everything.

"But how did I do that?" Harry countered.

"I don't know how your technology works. I can just figure out the effects." Jane replied easily.

"Doctor Foster, even I accept that it's magic." Tony said.

"Then you are no longer a scientist." Jane replied tartly.

"I like her." Tony said. "It's going to be fun to break her." Loki smirked at that. Then he turned to Harry, "So, god of sex?"

"Someone overheard part of a conversation and it kind of spiralled from there." Harry lamented.

"So it's not true?" Tony asked.

"Oh, it's true." Natasha said as she hugged Harry's side. "He sometimes does things in his sleep that make me have to wake him up."

"You learn a new trick, besides that tickling charm?" Tony asked interestedly.

"I actually found a whole book on sex magic." Harry said. "And before you ask, Odin has already asked for first access after I'm done with it. Then you can fight them for the right to read it next." Harry said pointing at the mirror and Loki.

"Nah, I'll just copy it when you're not using it." Tony said offhandedly. "Where's it now?" he asked.

"The restricted section." Harry smirked.

"That's just unfair. You know those books don't like non-magical people." Tony whined.

"They like me just fine." Bruce said. "One of them even followed me home, so I decided to keep it."

"That is not a book!" Tony exclaimed, starting up a conversation they'd had many times before as they stated off towards the bar. "It's called the 'Monster Book of Monsters'. Not the 'Living Book of Monsters'. That thing is alive."

"Exactly, it's the 'Monster Book of Monsters'. It is even called a book by its very definition. The fact that it is alive has nothing to do with it." Bruce was saying.

Darcy was just looking back and forth between Thor trapped in a mirror and Jane sticking her hand through it, Erik passed out on the bar(too much firewhiskey), Natasha holding a flying broom, the dragon sleeping in the hot springs and Tony Stark arguing about monsters with Bruce. She didn't know who Bruce was, but considering the company, chances are she'll find out. "Best vacation EVER!" she exclaimed.

An hour later, Odin and Frigga showed up. They were not expecting so many faces, but once they were introduced, they realised these were Harry's friends, so they had no problem with them. Odin and Frigga both thanked Tony and Bruce for helping Harry with the Firewhiskey.

"No problem." Bruce had said.

"Yeah, Harry had us prepare your next three deliveries already. They're just waiting for you to ask for them." Tony said nonchalantly.

They all settled down for a couple of drinks until people started getting hungry. Harry asked Tony to order a bunch of Pizza's from his favourite Pizza joint. When the time was right to go pick them up, Harry opened a portal for them for the first time.

"What?! Did you get a massive power boost or something? Are you actually sustaining a portal all on your own?" Tony asked.

"Most intriguing. I can sense Yggdrasil at work here. When did you learn to tap into the pathways, Harry?" Odin asked as he examined the portal.

"Earlier today actually, while I was observing the Convergence. I tested its energies and I learned to emulate it." Harry replied to Odin's question first. Then he turned to Tony, "I'm actually just tapping into something that's already there. The power requirement is not as harsh as the portals we use for our IRDRs and WPTs."

"You have discovered a way to make portals without the use of Yggdrasil?" Odin asked incredulously.

"That's all Tony. I wouldn't know where to begin." Harry said modestly.

"It's all thanks to Harry, actually. He introduced me to the study of rune magic. We later found out how to power them, by using some of Harry's power, to produce more of his power." Tony explained. "We use that to power most of Potter Innovation's new devices."

"You're THE Harry Potter?!" Darcy exclaimed. "Seriously?!"

"Yes he is, and he's still spoken for." Natasha said calmly.

"You said earlier you might be willing to share?" Darcy asked. This time she didn't sound like she was joking.

"What's this?!" Frigga asked scandalised. "No son of mine will do such a thing… and not tell his mother."

"Natasha was just joking before, when she said that." Harry said with a scowl at Darcy.

"Can't blame a girl for trying." she said again.

"Excuse Darcy. She has absolutely no shame." Jane apologised for her.

"I find it quite refreshing. None of this scheming behind people's backs." Loki said. When everyone looked at him, he asked, "What?"

Everyone laughed once they caught on that he was joking. "Thank you for being so accepting of Loki." Odin said once the laughter had died down.

"Harry told us Loki is no longer a threat." Bruce shrugged. "We might not all personally like him, but we all personally trust Harry." Then he smirked, got up and took a step away from the bar. In a couple of seconds, he had transformed into Hulk. Hulk looked around spotted Loki and screamed, "Hulk, smash!" when Loki fell out of his chair and started scooting away, Hulk's face relaxed and he smiled. "Hulk remember puny god. Harry good friend. You hurt Harry, Hulk hurt you." He then smirked and turned back into Bruce, his clothes reforming so quick, it was like they were part of the transformation.

"Did Hulk just trick Loki?!" Thor asked in shock.

"I believe he did." Harry said with a smile on his face. "But I suspect Bruce had a say in it."

"It was my idea. Hulk liked it." Bruce said also smiling.

"So you are the man who becomes the beast?" Odin asked.

"He's not a beast." Bruce said. "He's just misunderstood. He's just as human as I am, he's just enhanced, and not as complicated." he defended Hulk.

"If you had not said that, I may have offered to help you resolve the issue. Asgardian technology would be able to remove him." Frigga said.

"We didn't always see eye-to-eye, but Harry helped us see each other in a different light. We now both have a role to play and we're both happy with them." Bruce explained. "I'd rather keep him, if you don't mind."

"You have surrounded yourself with good people Harry." Frigga said with a smile. "But you never told me that Bruce was ageless too?"

"He is?!" "I am!?" Most everybody and Bruce himself exclaimed.

"Didn't you know? I thought that was why you had suggested Bruce to Sif?" Frigga asked with a frown.

"I did not suggest anyone to anyone. I'm all for letting people find their own path in life. If they do things knowing it will hurt them in the long run, it's up to them to accept that responsibility." Harry said looking at Sif. "If these two do decide to stay together, I'm certain they will be good for one another though."

"Thank you, Harry." Sif said.

"They are already bonding. I can tell." Frigga said with a soft smile. She was glad for Sif.

When Bruce blushed, Harry laughed and said, "She means starting to care for one another, not sex." When Bruce seemed to calm down, he added, "But they are doing that as well." When Bruce blushed again, Harry just laughed. Sif hadn't lost her smile, nor did she blush. 'Midgardians have such strange ways about them sometimes,' she thought.

Odin had been listening and had a thoughtful look on his face, before his eyes found Thor's. He gave it a moment and nodded. Thor smiled slowly, but said nothing.

The pizza was appreciated, but Natasha still made a fresh green salad. Harry started a fire, when it started getting chilly and blocked the wind, so it was never any kind of extreme. Darcy had yet to leave the pool chair. A couple of hours before Midnight, Logan joined them. That's when Darcy got out of the pool, much to Loki's annoyance. Harry just smirked.

Logan joined them for a couple of drinks and flirted lightly with Darcy, but he felt she was too young for him, not that he said so, when he realised it bothered Loki. They had a couple more drinks, listening to the soft music playing from the bar and talking about recent events. Harry was a common topic, but he kept on deflecting to the achievements of others. Tony's help with the rune based devices, Bruce's work with the potions.

He'd actually been struggling coming up with a way to sell his discoveries for non-lethal diseases and ailments. "You see, if we start selling the potions, we'd need certifications and provable data saying we've run them through years of testing to confirm that the 'medicine' works as advertised with no side-effects. I can't see a way to do that, let alone stopping people from selling our products and then having them tested by pharmaceutical companies. Our potions work, but we'd never get approval. And even if we did, we'd need to explain our processes. We'd have to confirm magic is real for that."

"Why not just do that?" Thor asked.

"They are trying to keep our brother safe, you dolt." Loki said. "He's the reason for all of this. Without him there'd be thousands if not millions more dead people on this planet. That's something nobody could ignore."

"I don't really mind if it comes out there's magic involved, but look at Jane. She's seen the wonders of magic, yet still refuses to believe what it is." Harry said.

"It's not that I don't believe it's real. But classifying it as magic, makes me want to scream. Magic is the term used when things are unexplainable. I won't deny that you have a power. I just don't like classifying it as magic." Jane defended her point.

"So if we called it energy manipulation, that would suit your tastes better?" Loki asked.

"It's still too vague. If I could test it and study it, I'd one day be able to tell you what it is, even if it is something new we've not come across before. We might need to even create a new classification for the type of energy." Jane said.

"Why not classify it as magic, then?" Odin asked. "After all, his people studied his kind of magic for thousands of years. There are subjects of study in the diverse uses, just like science, and they have quantifiable proof of how and why it works. Why not use the classification that they chose to name it? Would you not be offended if I decided your field of studies should use my terminology?"

"I do see your point." Jane gave in. She hadn't thought of all that before.

"But don't you see. That's the problem. We can't have this discussion over and over. We can't show people the studies and prove our point that way. Well, except maybe for Bruce. He's been taking proper quantifiable evidence and statistics for all his findings. He's probably made the most progress to show how magic actually works." Harry said nodding at Bruce.

"It's still only one subject in a wide range of topics. You have Charms, Hexes, Jinxes, Transfiguration, Transportation, Divination, Enchanting, Arithmancy and so much more. I can't redo all the studies of thousands of years of your people even if there was one of me for every subject." Bruce explained.

"Arithmancy?" Loki asked.

"The study of spell-crafting through the manipulation of numbers associated with letters and words. It's as difficult as the study of runes, as I understand it." Harry supplied.

"I think you're selling yourself short on that one, Bruce." Tony said. "Even I've started working on personal runes. It's one of the final studies in the mastery books. The amount of calculations, laws and principles to take into consideration is mind boggling. I have a supercomputer helping me and I'm still struggling with some of the subject matter."

"But you basically did all those studies on your own with no instruction." Harry said. "And both of you far exceed my own scope of knowledge and you did all that in one year. You've compressed and expanded on knowledge that no non-magical has ever done. Let alone the fact that there's a decade's worth of study usually necessary to reach mastery." Harry said excitedly. "At this point, the two of you probably know more magical theory than I do."

"That is quite impressive." Odin said with a nod. "And high praise coming from the foremost Master of the Magical arts."

"I never said I was a Master. I did almost complete my Enchanting Mastery though. I'm quite proud of that one." Harry said.

"Why didn't you ever finish it?" Darcy asked.

"There was no-one around to test me." Harry shrugged.

Odin did not like the path they were going down, so he said, "Well, since I am qualified to say such, you are a Master. And nobody will refute it. You might even be a master of Transfiguration and Animation. I've seen you shape many things into other things with real life in them."

"Where I'm from Animation and Transfiguration overlap. And I can't be a master at Transfiguration." Harry said sadly.

"Why not?" Odin asked.

"For a mastery in Transfiguration I have to practice self-transfiguration until I become an Animagus." Harry said.

"Animagus?" Tony asked, with a confused look, before holding his hand up suddenly, "Wait! I think I got it. Turning yourself into another species, right?"

"Yes. My transfiguration teacher was a Mistress in the field. She could turn into a cat." Harry said with fond remembrance. "My father and two of his friends also achieved Animagus status. My father turned into a stag. My godfather a large dog and their betrayer into a rat."

"Fitting." Tony said.

"Indeed, but we could always remedy that." Odin said looking at Loki.

"That's right! I can turn into any animal I study long enough. With you studying Asgardian Magic, you are probably overqualified for that Mastery now. I could teach you to turn into an animal in a month!" Loki boasted.

"Any animal?" Harry asked awed. "That's so cool."

Loki preened with pride. "I would gladly teach you this, brother. If it gives you some closure on a long open book, I shall strive to make you the greatest shape-changer any world has ever seen! After me of course."

Harry actually had a tear in his eye. "Thank you, Loki. That would mean a lot to me." he said sincerely.

"I think it is about time we retire." Frigga said.

"Agreed. I want to go for another tour of your island tomorrow and see what you have added to your collection. You could show your brothers what you are doing here as well." Odin enthused.

"There's so much to see here. Bruce has been cultivating Mandrakes in one of the greenhouses. I don't know how he did it. I only had a bit of a root in suspension from the old world. He was able to plant it and care for it until we now have an entire grove of them." Harry boasted of Bruce's achievement.

"It wasn't all that difficult. I just needed the dragon manure, and when you got Puppy, we started getting better results with other plants as well. That stuff is like miracle grow." Bruce explained.

"Mandrake?" Frigga asked.

"Ugly little baby faces on them. A fully mature mandrake, when pulled from the ground will kill a full-grown man with its cry. But the healing properties in them are unmatched for muscular diseases and ailments." Bruce said enthusiastically.

"We used to call them Wailing Root. They do not kill the Aesir, but they did cause faintness and sometimes with the frail, they could pass out. Our last of them perished a couple of hundred years ago in an attack from the fire giants." Frigga said. "Could you perhaps see your way to parting with some of them?" she asked hopefully. "And perhaps some of your dragon manure?"

"You'd have to ask Bruce. At this point they basically belong to him." Harry said. "Though I doubt we'd be bankrupting ourselves for a few of them?" he asked Bruce.

"I don't see why not. There are a few that would not be affected negatively, by a replanting." Bruce said thoughtfully. "Most of them would die to be moved now, though. I'll look into it in the morning."

"Oh, Idunn will be so pleased to have some of those again." Frigga said thankfully.

"Idunn?" Harry asked. "I don't think I've met her."

"She stays in her grove. She is in charge of some of our more special crops." Odin said, evasively.

"Maybe we can arrange a visit for her and Bruce can show her what we have and how we use them?" Natasha suggested. "Who knows, she may even know of different uses you don't know about." she said to Bruce.

"That would always be welcome. We may even get some new plants or seeds from her." Bruce thought out loud. "If you want I can show her around sometime tomorrow. Harry could open a portal right to the greenhouses and she would never even know where she is." He suggested.

"Maybe, if we find time. But this is a holiday. Let us enjoy ourselves a bit first." Frigga suggested.

"As for your distribution issue," Tony said looking at Bruce again, "we could always open a clinic and have people sign Contracts or simply wipe their memories of using potions they come in for. We'll just stress that it is an experimental treatment and have everybody sign waivers. That way we don't have to wade through all that red tape and the potions are secure." Tony suggested.

"We'd have to work on that. I don't like the idea of wiping hundreds of people's memories, just so we can help them." Harry said.

"So we figure out how to concentrate the potions into pills and have the patients drink them at the clinic." Tony suggested.

"Not many potions will work after a hefty process like that." Bruce said. "I've already tried that. Also, some things like burn salves, for example, need to be applied directly to the affected area. There are also potions that need to be inhaled directly from where it was brewed. Luckily I was able to phase out cauldrons, but the result is the same."

"Set up illusions then. All I'm saying is we have all these options available to us. We can definitely afford to play with a couple of ideas." Tony stated.

Bruce agreed to the idea and then decided he was tired too. That was when the party broke up. Darcy had had quite a bit to drink and Harry hit her with a sobering charm just as she was about to fall on het butt. "Whoa, that's a nice spell! But now I want to have another drink!" she exclaimed.

"Perhaps I could keep her company?" Loki said.

"Sorry, guys. Bar's closed." Harry said as he flicked a finger and put up an alarm and security ward, while switching off the lights and music.

Darcy liked the attention she was receiving from Loki, but she wasn't going to fall for his charms so easily. Loki realised that, and so he decided to walk her to her door, like a gentleman and making all kinds of innuendos along the way, very much unlike a gentleman. She was still laughing at his jokes when Harry and Natasha made their way to their house.

It was a good night. They were both tired, so they decided to just sleep. Tomorrow was another day. Harry cast some spells on her so that she would recover painlessly with a good night's rest and went to sleep with her in his arms.
