I lay in my sleeping bag on my back. I heard my name.
'... What about Apple?' asked Snape.
'Indeed Severus. I saw you with her earlier today. I never knew you cared for the girl so much.' said Dumbledore.
There was a silence.
'Neither did I to be truthful.' said Snape.
I heard their footsteps and shut my eyes. They stopped just at me.
'She looks so peaceful.' said Snape, in a soft voice.
'Really Snape, this girl seems to have brought out the nicer side in you.' said Dumbledore.
'She's in terrible danger. She knows it. I can't be around all the time, and neither can Lupin, to protect her from him.' said Snape.
'She need's to learn how to protect herself.' said Dumbledore.
There was a pause, and I felt something slip into my hand. I closed my fist around the cold object.
'But I can watch her.' said Snape, as they walked off.
I opened my eyes, to see a necklace, a round orb contained in a metal cadge. I gave a tiny smile, and slipped to sleep.

I lay in bed, trying to sleep. My necklace hung round my neck. I heard a scream. Jumping out of bed, I ran downstairs to see a familiar man run out the dormitory.
'Him again!' I thought.

I stayed up late that night, too scared, too frightened to sleep.
'You look terrible.' was Hermione greeting the next day.
'Good Morning to you too.' I yawned, pouring cornflakes into my bowl.
I saw security getting tighter round the Castle. I was simply glad to get rid of the ridiculous Knight and have the Fat Lady back, even if she couldn't sing.
