Being the leader of the wizarding population of Britain was surprisingly easy, but Rufus was very good at his job, and sent regular reports to Harry, though he sometimes came in person if he needed help or advice. That didn't happen too often, but there were some things that Rufus didn't like to do without consulting Harry, such as tripling the size of the Auror Corps, or approving the use of Unforgivables for Aurors who were attacked in the field.
Of course, getting anything done at all is very difficult with a beautiful woman vying for your attention day and night, make it two beautiful women, and the situation becomes impossible. This is why Hermione had pretty much taken over the day in and day out stuff. She was very good at it, and would doubtless end up as the Minister for Magic when this was all over, plus it gave Harry just about all the time he needed to keep Ginny and Katie happy, which was a bloody lot.
"Where do you reckon Harry is anyway?" asked Seamus Finnegan to Neville Longbottom.
"Dunno, I haven't seen him in a few days come to think of it."
"Well we need him to approve the Quidditch season, we can't let it be canceled, that would take all the fun out of this place. Let's check his room."
Neville readily agreed, the prospect of a good Quidditch match causing the two boys to forget any pretense of manors.
Needless to say that Harry fair jumped out of his skin when his door banged open. It wasn't really surprise, or the fact that he was naked, it was more the brunette bouncing on his lap, and the redhead sitting on his face, that caused him to damn near fall out of bed. Seamus and Neville went flying back through the door, which magically slammed shut after them.
"Sorry girls, business calls." Harry said as he reluctantly left their bed.
"Hurry back Harry, I don't know how long we can keep each other busy." Giggled Katie.
Harry groaned as he pulled on some shorts, and went to see what his friends wanted.
"What on Earth is so important that you couldn't even knock?" asked an angry Harry out in the hallway.
"Err, sorry about that." Said Neville.
"Harry, in case I haven't told you already, you are THE MAN!" said an excited Seamus.
"Yes, yes, I know, now what do you want?"
"Quidditch." Said Seamus.
"Well I'm kinda busy right now, maybe later…"
"No I mean we want you to restart the season, the inter-house championship." Said Neville.
"Oh right, that, no problem, tell all the captains to get their team's ready, bye." Harry turned and re-entered him room, being careful not to open the door any more than was necessary.
"Well that was easy." Said Seamus.
"I know, let's go tell Ron." Replied Neville.
The two boys ran off to find their friends, leaving Harry in peace once again.
Harry however was far from peace, as he watched his girlfriends, who hadn't noticed him returning to the room, keeping each other busy. If there was only one thing in the world better than having sex with two girls at once, it was watching the same two girls play with each other. Harry cleared his throat loudly to get their attention; on the third try it worked.
"Oh your back, hurry up and get in here." Demanded Ginny.
"What makes you think I want to?" asked Harry.
"What makes you think I won't get out of this bed and drag you into it by your…" said Katie.
"Alright, alright, I'm coming." Said Harry, wincing slightly.
Harry had almost made it to the bed when loud klaxons started blaring throughout the castle.
"Damn, what does a girl have to do to get some uninterrupted sex around here?" yelled Ginny.
"Never mind that, get dressed, quick, those are the Death Eater alarms.
The grounds of Hogwarts were usually a very nice sight in the fall, unblemished green lawns, the blue contrast of the lake, and the dark, looming presence of the Forbidden Forest. But today there was something else dark and looming on the grounds, it was mass of moving black cloaks, Death Eater cloaks to be exact, over a hundred of them.
"Fuck." Commented Ron.
"Fuck is right." Breathed Hermione, cursing for the first time in living memory.
"That's right; they're fucked, shit out of luck." Said Harry from behind them. "I was having a really good day until they showed up."
Ron grinned at the implications, and Hermione blushed, she wasn't exactly comfortable hearing about her friend's sex lives.
"So what's the plan?" asked Ron.
"Wait until Ginny gets here, she is pissed…" replied Harry.
"Yep, they're fucked." Ron was intimately familiar with his sister's temper.
"Shall we keep them back until she gets here? Where is she anyway?" asked Hermione.
"Ought to be here any second, it does get kinda hard to find clean clothes in our room, kinda messy sometimes." Said Harry.
Ron grinned again, firmly pretending that this conversation was not about his sister, while Hermione just shook her head, muttering something that sounded a lot like 'boys'.
"Ah here she is now" said Harry.
Sure enough Ginny came storming out from the Hall, looking ready to kill.
"Alright," she yelled "who do I have to kill to get my boyfriend back in bed?!"
Ginny was loud enough that the advancing Death Eaters heard her, causing them to break out in fits of laughter. This, of course, was a mistake, as they were not only laughing at Ginny Weasley, they were also drawing attention to themselves, which was quickly followed by a few bone-shattering curses from Ginny's wand.
"Damn, fights not even started yet and she's got two kills." Appreciated Harry.
"Well she did learn from the best." Said Ron, as though they were grading her charms test, and not watching a sixteen year old girl kill and maim nearly a hundred grown Death Eaters.
"Reckon she needs any help?" asked Ron.
"Reckon she'd let you close enough to help? You can't imagine how badly she wants them gone so she can get back into bed with me, I don't think Katie even bothered to come down or get dressed." Answered Harry.
"How do you do it…" wondered Ron, who winced when he realized that he was standing right next to Hermione.
"Ronald Weasley!! Just what the bloody hell does that mean?!" screamed a furious Hermione.
"Ummm…" Stuttered Ron, trying to think a way to dig himself out of the hole he was in.
"Are you trying to say that you want to see me with another girl?!" Shrieked Hermione.
"Ah, well, to tell you the truth, I wouldn't mind." Said Ron, trying to be as noncommittal as possible.
Harry was expecting another explosion from Hermione, but to his surprise it never came, she just stared off into space for a few minutes, looking thoughtful, before turning her attention back to Ginny and the Death Eaters.
"And that, dear Ronald, is how you do it." Said Harry smugly. He could tell what Hermione was thinking, and he was fully expecting Lavender Brown to be having trouble walking the next day.
That was when all three of their heads snapped around, alerted to the new turn of the Death Eater fight by Ginny's anguished scream…
