Dani wisped down to the black lake and sighed. she'd just come from Gabriel's office and had just finished watching harry mess up his date. she was so mad at harry. Things had been going fine until the evil awkward silence came. so dani told harry to start a convo and harry had said 'so how bout them yankees.' Dani was so enraged. not only was it the stupidest thing to say but Harry's date was a red sox fan. Not good. So Dani tried to get harry to apologise but the girl threw wine in harry's face calling him an insentive jerk. well it went downhill from there cause harry got angry at the girl and a said 'welll at least i'm not a fanatic for a cursed team' the girl stormed out after that and now dani was livid. She needed to yell at harry now. but she decided to be nice and clam down just a bit before confronting him.

Harry, frustrated that his date had gone so badly and angry that he had gotten wine thrown in his face, and annoyed that Dani was getting so mad at him when he was trying. It's not easy trying to get a girl to fall for you, let alone get her to marry you in just a month. Less than a month now, after his horrendous date. He didn't understand why Dani was getting so angry, he knew that it was pertinent to get married, but he really was trying. And all she ever did was pressure him into more bad dates and yell at him. He paced on a grassy hill, wiping wine from his face, his hair now wet and getting sticky. He sighed, closing his eyes, out of ideas, and slumped to the ground, sitting on the damp grass. He felt bad that he wasn't doing well on his dates, but he felt pressured too, if he couldn't get married, the world was left to Voldemort. He leaned back on his hands sighing, how could Ginny have married Draco, he thought she loved him like he loved her, and really, Draco, of all people. He rubbed his eyes, trying to get the picture of Ginny out of his head.

Dani saw harry walk out to the grass where she was. "i guess i'm calm enough" she said to herself. SHe stomped over to him and slapped him upside the head. "you idiot. what the hell were you thinking! How bout them yankees potter! how bout them yankees. argh have you never been on a date before. i mena you had to have gone on a date with that mercedes ginny once or twice." Dani tended to call ginny a mercedes based on the character from alexandre dumas' story the count of monte cristo. SHe chose that name because Mercedes like ginny had married way too soon after her lover's "death"

He stood up, frowning, rubbing the side of his head where she had hit him. "Hey! I'm sorry, I can't be perfect! It was all I could bloody well think of at the time! I tried alright! Don't talk about Ginny like that! " he yelled. After a while he had caught on to the whole 'mercedes' thing. "it's not like I want to screw up, I want to get married, I want to live, I want to defeat Voldemort don't I!" he said fuming. He paused, "Don't I?..." he sighed, sitting back down, having vented enough right now. "Its just...with Ginny things were so much easier. We never went on dates, we didn't have to...It, We just sort of happened. " he said, fully calm now, sinking back into his thoughts of Ginny.

"She eloped a month after you died i think she deserves to be talked about like that! And i guess her marriage to your long time school rival just happened as well! Face it she doesn't deserve you Potter. I know you're trying but i swear sometimes it's like you purposely mess up your dates or...at least you're subconcious is." Suddenly Dani understood. The way he defended Ginny, the way he'd space out sometimes, the way he looked at the picture of him and ginny everynight before he went to bed. it all made sense, "you're still in love with her aren't you? Despite what she did and the fact that the chances she'll dump draco for you are slim you still love her!"

He looked up at her, hints of anger lingering in his eyes, but on top of that there was mostly just sadness. He had a broken heart and his love for Ginny wouldn't fade as quickly as her love for him had. He sighed, "Well, what do you want me to say? That no, I don't love her, that I hate her for what she did? Well I do, sort of. I'm mad at her for what she did, appalled really, but...I can't help what I feel. I don't know how she married that fast but I just think that I can't. I don't love any of these girls I'm dating, hell, I don't even really like half of them that much! I didn't date Ginny, I didn't know her at first, then later she was just Ron's little sister, then, one day it just hit me. That I was missing something, that I needed someone, and I knew it was her. But I guess thats all flown out the window now hasn't it. " he sighed again, closing his eyes and rubbing his temples. " Alright. Fine, so she's not coming back..." he took a deep breath and continued." But could we at least find someone I do like? " he asked softly, tired of fighting. "Not some bloddy red sox fan." he added, a smile starting at the edge of his lips.

"well maybe if you'd tell me what kind of girls you're into i could find them. Look maybe i was wrong to put you back into the game so fast. it's just a month isn't enough time especailly in your circumstance. And well there's a story i need to tell you. there was a man a wizard actually who died when he jumped in front of dumbledore saving dumbledore from a killing curse. So the wizard was given the chance to go back and he had an angel assigned to him. anyways he wasn't good with the ladies and he failed so he got sent back top limbo and became a CGA himself. well he got to go back to earth as a human when he helped out some pope or something but not before ruining the life the angel that had been a charge of when he was doing his task. She'd fallen in love with him and he just left her. I just don't want something like that happening again and i don't want to fail in ths task because Voldemort's taking over countries faster that hitler and napoleon put together."

Harry looked at her, his eyebrows furrowing slightly, "You don't want that to happen again...as in...you're, falling for me?" he asked with a raised eyebrow. He was doubtful of that for sure. All she ever did was yell at him and call him an idiot who never did anything right, come to think of it sometimes she reminded him of his Aunt and Uncle. 'Cept younger and prettier and nicer, and , you know what, he decided, she wasn't really much like them. But was she saying she had fallen for him? Or was she really just telling him a story about a failed mission to help someone. He wasn't sure so decided to rely on the latter and not get his mind get too caught up with thoughts about what if she did like him like that. It was just to much to handle right now. Was that even legal? There was so much he didn't know. He sighed, looking at her, wanting an answer so they could plan their next move. He shrugged, "I don't know. The only girlfriends I've ever had were Cho and Ginny." he blinked a few times, trying to push back all the mental images of Ginny. "And they were nothing alike at all...and come to think of it, neither of those relationships worked out. " he said with a frown thinking. He thought about how sweet and shy and soft hearted they had both been, maybe what he needed was someone completely the opposite, brutally honest and bold and strong. He thought for a moment realizing that the only person that immediately cam to mind was Dani and he whipped his head back to her. Staring into her face, waiting for his question to be answered.

"don't want it to happen as in i don't want you to fail in completeing the task. i don't want to have to find out the consequences of you failing. I just want you to understand why i'm pressuring you and what the heck makes you think i'm falling for you. not only is that completely absurd it's not true. and even if it was which it's not an angel is forbidden from having a romantic relationship with a charge and or a human." dani sighed and sat down. if they were to accomplish anything they'd need to at least get along and tolerate each other.
"you know. your father is the one who named me. after your great grandfather Danforth potter. Danforth always went by the name Danny though and actually if he had been dead when you were born you would have been named Danny but your mom believe that jewish belief that naming your child after someone who is alive it's like wishing the person dead. Course when danforth died a few months later James made lily promise their next child would be named Danny. So you were named Harry after Lily's grandfather and your middlename James came from your great uncle James Evans. your parents are amazing people Harry. Trust me i know they raised me"

"Alright, alright, sorry!" he said putting his hands up in defense, "I was just trying to make sure I was clear on what you were talking about." he said laughing. "I figured there would be some law. There are a lot of laws having to do with this, afterlife, limbo thing aren't there? " he asked, sighing. How was he going to get married in a month, he just didn't know. He ran a hand through his dark hair.
"My father named you?" he asked surprised, "raised you? Why didn't I know about this?" he asked, slightly upset. He had gotten to spend so little time with his parents he didn't remmber much. Just their faces...and the night they had been killed. "I thought I was named Harry James after just you know, my dad...James. " he shrugged. "So, is that why they assigned you to help me? Because you already knew me?" he asked, wondering if there had been sense behind this whole plan. He had so many questions that remained unanswered, and it seemed like the farther he went to find out about his past, he ended up knowing less and less. He sighed again. "Um, do you, do angels age in Limbo?" he asked softly, wondering. Since she was born after him and she had already died, well then again, so had he but still, she had become an angel, and since she was technically younger than him, when did she die? She still looked to be about his age. If she had died when hisparents had, wouldn't she be a baby? He was confusing himself.

"yeah there's a lot of laws and technicalities. yes your parents raised me. I would have thought they'd have told you about that when i let you see them before we left for earth. you weren't told about cause.. and don't yell at me cause i'm just the messenger here but see your parents when they died begged to be your guardain angels so they could raise you but the president of Limbo refused. apparently you needed to lose your parents and everyone else you lost so you could have more of a reason to fight and have a greater chance to win. But the president didn't know about the horocruxs as did no one else. So that threw off everything. plus they were needed to raise me seeing as i was recently born in what would be august on earth. I wasn't named yet so your dad named me Dani after danforth cause they obviously couldn't have any more children cause they were both infertile from the killing curse. And as you know james was intent on having a child named dani. But yeah i was born in limbo to a CGA but your parents had to take care of me because my mother was...sick. very very...sick. Sick up until the day she died when I was five. I actually don't like talking about my mother..." Dani looked away from him. She couldn't tell him the truth about her mother. He'd just think she was stupid.
"I was assigned to you because i'm the best not to sound arogant. And if i help you i become human which the president knows is my greatest wish. Plus he said something about us understanding each other cause of our pasts or whatever. But yeah we age just not past age 18. or at least not physically. i mean in numbers yes but we still look as young as we did the day we turned 18. once we turn 18 we begin our 5000 years of imortality. after that's up we become apart of the energy. the thing that flows through earth and keeps it living. That's why i need to become human now because i'm 17 and once i turn 18 i can never become human"

He frowned, " I didn't talk to them much in Limbo. They were kind of upset that I had just died you see, and I didn't really ask what they did up there." he looked away, thinking of his parents how they had been lost to him for 16 years and then suddenly he was told that they were there, and he could talk to them, it had caught him off guard, thats for sure. But she...born into Limbo, born as an angel. This whole new reality invloved with Limbo was new to him, almost to much to wrap his mind around. He blinked, trying to shake off his feeling of being so out of the loop. He frowned when she said something about her mother. He saw that there was clearly something more there, something she wasn't saying. He didn't want to pry, but he wanted to know everything about her that he could. About her, about himself, about his parents, Limbo, the list could go on and on.
"But why would you want to become human so bad?" he asked, annoyed at himself, "Humans are weaker. We die." he said, thinking of all the people he had lost in his lifetime. How he himself had been killed. " We're just so...vunerable. " he said, finding himself less attatched to Ginny the more time he spent away from her and with Dani. "But you, "he looked back into her face, "you get to stay young forever. Everyone on earth wants eternal youth and beauty but you..you've got it." he shook his head slightly, almost solemnly, "why would you want to give that up?"

"you sound just like gabriel" dani smirked. She always smirked never smiled. And sometimes she might chuckle but she never laughed. In fact she'd never laughed or smiled once in her life she realised. "i want to be human cause i hate it up in limbo. Limbo is fake, a fake pardise. plus paradise isn't paradise anymore if you live there. I don't see humans as weak. to me they're the most amazing creatures. They're alive they're real. Me i'm not even considered a human. I'm some spirit thing. I hate looking like a human and having human feelings but not being a human. Plus i fell in love with earth and the only way i can true be on earth is if i'm a human. And i want to get away from gabriel and my enslaving job as a CGA. I feel like a servant who has to babysit arrogant and stubbor charges...no offense"

He glared half-heartedly at her. "It's okay. But really. We're fascinating creatures? Is earth just like a big petting zoo to you guys or something, like we're all under a microscope?" he sighed, wishing that he could just be alive and happy. "Why does is matter what you are? It's not like you don't seem like a human, you look and act like one, you'll just live longer. " he shrugged. "Man, I wish I could live. " he sighed, laying back on the grass folding his arms under his head. "By the way, what's your deal with Gabriel? Are you two together or something? " he asked simply.

"he wishes. He wants me but I hate him. I actually did fancy him when i was 13 and i told him and he asked me out. we were going to see ever after at the theater. it was the last day it was there and i desperately wanted to see it. I went there to meet him and he never showed. I had to leave the theater because it was getting close to midnight and chargless angels aren't allowed stay on earth past midnight. So i hated him ever since and a i saw him for the slimy player he is"
"and I don't want to live for 5000 years in a place I hate. Besides i want to feel alive. to get a cuts and see blood instead of ichor. to get away from limbo and it's falsehood and it's stupid rules. I jsut want to be human and once i am i'll live out my life single and fablous away from men and they're idiocracy...no offense"
