Evan saw Sara turn her head to see that he was bleeding. He cursed in his head. Stupid subconscious.... he thought as he kept watching Binns lecture. He tried ignoring her the whole class and it worked.

Sara every other minute would sneak a glance at Evan and she found him trying to avoid her.she sighed and shook her head.The class ended after an hour and everybody got up and left with a 15 inch essay on the Goblin Revolution to be handed over.Sara got up and packed her stuff and crossed over to Evan's desk and leant against it.
what the hell do you think have you done to your hand she asked looking at him straight in his eyes.she brought his hand out of robe pocket and had a good look and then sighed.she brought her wand out and flicked it to clean the blood and said
you better go and visit Pomfrey she said firmly still holding his slightly blood stained hand. she looked over his shoulder at Jacob and Nicky.she didnt know if she should wait for him or not. she walked out of the class and waited for Jacob as well as Evan outside the door.

Hey do you guys want to walk around a bit, since we have no more classes. Vanessa asked.

Hermione shrugged. Sure. She said. Do you want to Ron?

Class ended and Jacob left. I have to go, see you later Nicky. He said waving to her. He walked outside and saw Sara and Evan. Hey guys. He said.

uh sure no prob-problem he said a bit hesitating looking at Hermione,they were supposed to go and look for Harry.




hey Sara said and walked quietly with Jacob and Evan.they walked quietly for sometime when she turned around and spoke to Evan
Evan you better get going to the Hospital Wing her voice firm.
she turned back to Jacob looked at him but didnt say anything.but she couldnt keep quiet for long
so i hope Nicky wasnt bored in the class,sitting alone sucks she said as she remembered apparantly that he had left her while she ended up sitting alone

Hermione forgot. Oh sorry, I forgot we needed to go look for Harry. maybe some other time. She said. Bye. She waved to Dean and Vanessa then grabbed Rons hand and headed towards the Library.

Vanessa nodded her head and waved to the two. See you both later! She said waving to them.

Jacob squinted his eyes in confusion. Why are you still mad? I thought you were sitting with Evan. He said.

Ron nodded and waved at Vanessa and Dean and walked with Hermione back to the castle.
where are we heading to? he asked


oh well i am not mad but a bit upset that's it she said honestly
and if you have forgotten,we both were sitting together and Evan was in all together different column but same row if i need to be precise with dimensions of the class seating arrangements she said as they walked.

Jacob sighed. He grabbed Sara's shoulders and turned her towards him. He leant in quickly and kissed her. He broke apart and said, "I'm sorry, but I just want this to be over with."

"Let's check the Library." Hermione said. "Harry might be in there researching things for Voldemort's child." She shivered at the thought.

Sara found herslef grabbed by her by her shoulders and was kissed.she kissed him and then looked at him
and how do you think by sitting next to Nicky will this get over with?she asked

By talking to her about it. Jacob said.

Hermione looked over at Ron. Do you have any clue who might be the son? She asked walking into the Library and starting to check the aisles.

Sara just looked at him and then turned and began to walk
so what have you both talked about? she asked.she still didnt understand why he wasnt believing her and Evan.



i,i dont know as far as i know there is no kid named Riddle in our school as he remembered Harry telling them Voldemort's actual name.
and if it has to be Bellatrix's surname,then lestrange,lets see he said thinking and then continuing
nah...i dont think there is any guy with such a last name he said as they walked across the aisles of books

"Just that she should leave you guys alone for some time. So the both of you can cool down and there isnt much tension in the air." Jacob said walking beside Sara, holding her hand.

Hermione nodded. She began to look at the books and suddenly an idea came to her mind. She thought of a book all about Voldemort and flicked her wand. Suddenly a book flew to her out of no where. "Ron, this book might tell us who his son is." She said. "It's going to be a long night." She sighed and opened the book up taking a seat by one of the long tables.

Sara just nodded.but even if things cool down it might be diffiuclt for Evan she knew that.but had Jacob known that she had no idea.she sighed and then spoke
i dont know what you are trying to do Jacob,but Evan hurt himself,that's the reason why i told him to see Pomfrey she said.
he has hurt himself badly she said referring to the morning incident and the blood covered palm incident in the class.


Ron walked over and looked over Hermione's shoulder
Blimey,Hermione,who do you think must have written so much as a book on Voldemort he asked.he followed her and sat next to her as she opened the book to read it.

Jacob nodded. I know, thats why I need this to be over with. He said.

Hermione shrugged. Maybe Dumbledore did when he was alive? She asked. She leaned her head on his shoulder and started to read.

so what are you trying to do? trying to make them both talk? she asked.personally Sara didnt want Nicky to come any near to Evan,because she had seen him when he said never to let him fall in love again and she had agreed.she agreed because she couldnt see him so hurt.


Ron just nodded his head and began reading in his mind as Hermione read it her head on his shoulder.

Jacob shrugged. "No, not now, maybe later on. I don't really have a plan." He said.

Hermione was reading and something caught her eye. Tom Riddle had a son. Although he was kept under hiding and currently is attending Hogwarts.... Hermione sighed. "It says nothing." She said putting her head on the desk. She felt as she failed.

Sara just nodded and walked. they were back in the Hufflepuff Common Room and went and sat on her favorite couch.
do you want to know my take on this? she asked looking up at him.
i am in no support for this she said not trying to understand.
but since you are trying to get things back to normal, i am with you and also while Evan will be talking and if you permit to be there, i will be with him just in case... she said and the shrugged.she had a feeling that Jacob will think she is some drama queen,but in reality no.she is just being protective of her friend,who is as close to being her brother.


Hey... Ron said stroking her hair as Hermione put her head on the table.
dont worry we will try and search for this Voldie.Jr he said trying to convince himself too.

OOC: sorry guys for not posting for some time .. my grandpa died.. and i didn't feel right.. but i guess i am back..

Harry burst into the library,the place more likely to find Hermione and indeed,he found her and Ron there.Harry knew they must have been worried,because he didn't come up at classes."I'm sorry,Dumbledore held me back,he said he had talked to Slughorn about it.." he stopped and looked at them "What are you two reading there?" he asked frowning.

Ron looked up
trying to find about Voldie.Jr he said getting in one of his twin brother's lingo...
but obvious we didnt find anything he said shrugging
what about Slughorn? he asked Harry.



OOC:oh...i am so sorry...its alright...you can take your time...i hope you are fine...

Jacob understood. Alright. He said.

Hermione looked up at Ron with tears in her eyes. What if this time he is stronger then us...then..then..we will die? Hermione asked. She then looked up and saw Harry. She ran over to him and hugged him. We were worried about you. She said. Its just a book about Voldemort. I tried looking for things about his son but it doesnt say anything.

OOC: Oh I'm so sorry to hear that!

Sara looked up at him and then gave a small smile. there was something about him.he was understanding.he was so calm and collected and confident in what he was doing.even if he knows he will have resistance to face.no doubt she liked him much more then what she had liked him last evening.she looked away and then blushed as she looked down on the carpet.


Ron sat there where he was as he saw Hermione rushing to Harry and hugging him.he shook his head as he recalled her fear
no we wont die,Mione he whispered.

Jacob chuckled. Why are you blushing? He said.

Hermione gave a weak smile to Ron and frowned. She sat back down next to him.

Sara looked up at once but regretted as she turned another shade of red.she just shook her head and then late after few seconds she spoke
um...nothing...you are sweet she said not looking up
and cute,and handsome and smart and understanding and i could go on i guess she thought and then shook her head.she was actually losing her head.



Ron put his arm around her as she sat next to him.
so Harry,what's up with Slughorn? he asked.

Harry hugged Hermione back then shook his head at her words "This time we're stronger.. and we know things about him.." he sat himself beside Ron and stood there,thinking. "We must search for his son,though i doubt we'll find anything in the library.And even if there is his name mentioned in one of these books,there is a different name,not riddle,marvolo or lestrange,would be too obvious.But he must be in slytherin.." and then answered Ron "something about a memory.. Dumbledore said he'll show me the memory next time we meet.Today we talked about the child and he has no idea who the kid could be,but told me to keep a watch on everyone suspicious.."


OOC: thanks..

Jacob chuckled and kissed her cheek. You are too. He said grinning. He turned towards Evan. Shall we head to the hospital wing for your hand? He asked.

Hermione nodded and sighed. How will we ever figure this out? She asked stressed.

"No idea" sighed Harry.. "Let's go into the Great Hall,have a look?Or back to the common room and search for him tomorrow?" he asked
