Chapter 1:
The War May Be Over, But the Pain is Just Starting
No Way Of Knowing


I forced my eyelids open, with difficulty. They felt heavy and it seemed like they had a mind of their own, and they wanted to stay closed. But, I was wake for the last five minutes. It was just that I hadn't opened them. I just lay there, listening to my thoughts. Wishing so much that they would just shut up.

I whimpered at the sound of someone slaming the door. I was alone in the room and I felt utterly insane. Alone. And nuts.

I finally swung my legs over the side of the bed and stretched. Every bone in my body ached and cuts all over my chest were turning purple. Gross. I looked away from the hidiousness that was myself and pulled out some clean close from my trunk that my Dad had summoned up.

I pulled on my jeans first and winced as the loose denim rubbed against my thigh. I was pulling my stretched cotton top when the door opened and I saw the boy I loved walk in and I screamed.

"Hey Gin- OH MY GAWD! SORRY! SORRY!"

Harry Potter ran out of the room, closing the door behind him and I pulled my shirt down. All I could think was how glad I was that I had slipped on my jeans first. But, he saw the scars on my stomach. I gulped. This was gonna be great fun.

"You can come in now."

Harry walked in, very slowly...

I rolled my eyes and I pulled my hair out from under my shirt colar. "Gin, your stomach-" I cut across him with a snap. "Don't start Harry." He hung his head and I knew exactly what he was thinking. I chose to fight. So Bellatrix got at me with a knife. The memory of pain filled my mind and I winced at the memory.

***


"Tell me where Potter is." demanded the rough voice of Bellatrix Lestrange.

"Never!" I screamed backing up. Friends stood around me, here and there fighting a deatheater. I glared at Bellatrix and threw a stone at her and while she was distracted I grabbed my wand from the cold ground and shouted, "Stupefi!" The red light bounced off her shield and she hissed at me.

Lestrange pulled a knife from her sleeve and in a flash of silver she brought it down across my stomach. I screamed and she sliced again and again and again. Blood poured from my flat stomach and I screamed again.

I lifted my leg and kicked her stomach and she fell back. Luna Lovegood grabbed me and dragged me away while someone distracted the hell that was Bellatrix Lestrange.

***


I sighed and thought until Harry coughed. "Down stairs. They're talking about burying the bodies." My breath caught and turned into a choked sob. Harry wrapped an awkward arm around me for comfort.

I rested my head against his shoulder and in that second I felt as though something in my heart had connected and I'm pretty sure he felt it too. I looked up and batted my eyelashes twice. His breath caught and he had to gulp. I reached up and he leaned down and our lips were but inches apart.

I suddenly felt sweaty and I pulled away. No. It wasn't right. He didn't love me. He made that clear when he broke up with me.

I fought the tears and croaked; "C'mon. Let's go downstairs." I started to walk down, I could her him follow me as clearly as if he was right beside. Okay, so noowww my thoughts shut up! "So... how've you been?" My thoughts voiced out the question.

"Uh... Well, can I talk to you, Ginny?"

I stopped in my tracks. "Of course Harry. Is everything alright?"

I could hear him gulping. "Well. Not really. I-I'm still having nightmares." He looked in my eyes and I stared back into his emerald pools.

"Harry, I-I-"

"Please don't say anything to Hermione, Gin. Okay?"

I nodded sadly. I didn't say anything because I knew I would end up telling her. My eyes teared up. I couldn't believe this pain. He hugged me but it was an awkward hug.

The visions of the dead people down stairs filled my mind and I stucked in a sharp breath. Pain rose inside my chest and I gasped.

He seemed to understand and he let me lean against him and half carried-half dragged me down the stairs and through the common room. Blood covered the place and the paintings were pictures of horror and were trying to cure the other paintings that had found some way to fight.

TThis was hell. Hands down.

I closed the door to the Room of Requirement behind me and started walking down the stairs towards the Grand Staircase. The past few days had been one long and stressful haze to me. Harry, Ron, and I had to sneak into Hogwarts, and then there had been that huge battle. That scary moment where I thought Harry was dead and my heart stopped beating was still fresh in my mind. I turned the corner and walked straight into someone, who staggered back a few steps with an indignant, "Oi!"

"Oh. Sorry, Ron," I said tiredly. Rubbing my eyes, I looked up and into a pair of chocolate brown eyes which belonged to my best friend, Ron Weasley.

"Where have you been Hermione?" Ron asked copying my pace as we walked on. "Me and Harry have been worried about you." The tips of his ears grew slightly redder.

I shrugged my shoulders. "Just around," I simply said as we walked down yet another flight of stairs. I still wore the same clothes I had wore during the battle, having nothing else to wear. My cardigan was smudged with dirt and blood, but nothing compared to what the castle looked like. It was a wreckage, pieces of stone everywhere. We didn't meet many people while we walked, in total silence, an awkwardness between us. I couldn't get a grip on my feelings toward Ron. Ever since that kiss in the Room of Requirement, my mind had been a jumble of emotions.

"How's Harry?" I asked, hoping to break the silence between us. I looked sideways at Ron. He towered over my slender form. His red flaming hair had got longer over the course of the year, and he had become broader around the shoulders and chest. He looked almost grown up. No, he did look grown up! I corrected myself.

Ron caught me looking. He turned to face me, his chocolate brown eye's boring into mine. I felt my face grow hot with embarrassment and looked at my feet to hide it.

I saw him smirk out of the corner of my eye. I felt butterflies in my stomach, something that had never happened before. I couldn't be...I believe you're falling for Ron, I told myself as we continued to walk. As we got closer to the Great Hall we passed more and more people, who looked just as messy and tired as we did. Some were crying over their losses, and some looked relieved that they hadn't lost anyone. Their dead loved ones were still lining the walls of the Great Hall. Seeing this, Ron and I fell into another awkward silence.

As we descended the last flight of steps, I saw Harry and Ginny walk out of the Great Hall together. Harry's hair had also grown longer over the year, although it still had a mind of its own. From where I was I couldn't see his scar, which I knew still burned on his forehead. His clothes too were dirty and ripped in places. Ginny looked better, with less dirty clothes. Her red flaming hair, exactly like Ron's, flowed down her back. They both looked up at us as we made our way down the crumbling stairs.

"There you are Hermione," Harry said, relief clear in his voice. Ginny smiled at me from her space next to Harry. After their breakup almost a year ago, both had an awkward relationship with each other. Just like me and Ron, I thought to myself as we both descended the last of the staircase to meet them.

"Where were you Hermione?" Harry asked me, staring into my face like it would give him the answer.

"Just around," I said simply, trying to ignore his stare. I knew he could tell I was lying about something, but sometimes people had to let it drop.

"Well you're here now, that's all that matters," Ginny cut in. She hit Harry on the arm to stop him staring. I sighed in relief and smiled my gratitude at her. If it wasn't for Ginny I probably would have broken down and cried right there.

"What's happening?" I asked Harry, nodding my head towards the open doors leading to the Great Hall. Everyone followed my gaze. A bunch of remaining professors gathered in a bunch, talking in hushed tones, looking at the long row of bodies every few seconds. I watched this for a few minutes before looking at my hands, I couldn't bear seeing all those dead bodies.

"They're planning on burying them," Ginny said, also in a hushed tone. I could feel her gaze on me, so I lifted my head to look at her, the boys were too busy on looking in the hall. I watched at Harry rubbed his eyes for the tenth time since walking out of the hall.

With a quick look at Ginny who gave me a nod I said, "Harry...You all right? Have you been sleeping well?" I know it sounded weird, but someone had to ask.

Harry looked at me, his eyes looked slightly red around the edges. Ron's and Ginny's full attention were on us as Harry replied, "I'm fine."

I opened my mouth to complain, to tell him he didn't look fine and it was all right to have nightmares, but Ginny took hold of my arm and yanked me away from the boys. She had a look of determination on her face as we walked away from them.

"Don't pry Hermione, he's been having nightmares again," She told me, stopping and facing me, her arms folded.

"How do you know?" I asked her, concerned for Harry's sake.

"He told me, just before you guys walked down the stairs."

"Oh," was all I could say. I peeked over to where Ron and Harry stood, deep in conversation. I watched as Ron laughed at something Harry said. My stomach filled with butterflies again, and I looked away from the sight. Ginny was watching me again, i knew it, so I yet again turned to face her stare.

"You like him don't you?" She asked, a smiled playing on her lips.

"No way!" I replied, my face dumbstruck.

"I'm not stupid," Ginny told me, guessing my thoughts.

"I never said you were!" I said turning to walk back towards the boys.

I heard Ginny laugh behind me. "Hermione, I know that look. It's all right with me, if that helps anything." She put her hand on my shoulder. "Come on. You can talk to him later. But now we have to focus on more important things, like the castle and the dead." Her voice was somber again. Together, we walked back towards Harry and Ron, steeling ourselves for a hard day.

Chapter Two

Missing You.

I looked around the hall, but I couldn't really see it. The tears which filled my eyes and stained my cheeks were to blame. But what had caused this pain, this anger, was the job of...him...Lord Voldemort. I shivered, the name still scared me. I was sitting in the corner of the Great Hall, alone - something for which I was grateful. I didn't want people to see me like this. The wooden floor under me, the stone wall of the castle behind me. Taking a look around me, I noticed George walking towards me. I quickly wiped my eyes as I watched him.

"Haii," He said softly as he took a seat next to me. There was no laugher in his face. His eyes searched mine.

"Hey," I said softly, sniffing slightly. He knew I had been crying, I had never been able to fool him. Before I could say anything else he had put his warm arm around my shoulders. I leant my head on his shoulder. I closed my eyes, breathing deeply.

"Why did he have to die? Why did anyone have to die?" I asked him softly. Tears streamed down my stained cheeks. I couldn't stop them coming, and I didn't care. I could feel his eyes on me, and his lips on my hair when he kissed it softly.

"They did to save the world. To make it a better place," He replied softly. I was surprised at his gentle tone, with no hint of laughter. I didn't think there would be any humor there for a while.

"I'm sorry for your loss," I told him, still crying. Im not sure if he heard me or not, but before I could really think I had flung myself into his arms. Crying, letting the pain and anger i had kept inside me for the last few days out. George only shrugged, such a small gesture I sat back and looked at him thoroughly for the first time in days. I saw his pain plastered clearly in his eyes. The loss of his brother was what I think caused the most pain. I continued to stare, George staring back at me with a question in his eyes.

"Angie?" I heard him ask, as he took my hand and squeezed it slightly.

"George..." I faltered, swallowing down a sob. "What do you think's going to happen to Hogwarts?" I continued quietly. I searched his face for an answer, he gave me a shrug. I wasn't satisfied, but i decided not to press him just yet. There was time enough for that later on.

"I dunno," I heard him tell me equally as quiet as me. He jumped up suddenly, making me start. I looked up to see him hold his hand out to me. Wiping my eyes again, I took it and let him pull me up like I was a feather. I probably felt like one with the lack of food and sleep. I was dead on my feet.

"Come on Angie, let's help everyone else," He said, turning to lead me toward the middle of the hall. I didn't need telling what I was supposed to be helping with. I already knew. The thought brought a lump to my throat, like i couldn't breathe. I didn't want to look at them - him especially. I shuddered.

"George!" I called in a croaky voice, tugging on his arm. He turned to look at me. Before I spoke I looked over his shoulder, looking for anyone in hearing range. We were quite a ways away from the group gathering in the middle of the room. Around the dead.

I swallowed. "I miss him, George" I said softly, shifting my eyes to look into his. I knew - from a look in his eye - that he knew who 'him' was. He wasn't stupid. Before I knew it I was being pulled into a hug. George held me close, i could hear his breathing in my ear. "I miss him too," he said. Pulling away i felt George take my hand and pull me towards the large group.

Chapter 3:
Surprise Attack


http://i37.tinypic.com/2yjzuoj.jpg


I stood in the shower. My skin soaking up the heat. My hot hair plastered to my face. Finally, I decided to turn off the shower and as soon as I slid the doors open, a blast of freezing cold slapped me in the face. A wrapped a fluffy white towel around myself. When I dried myself I sprayed some Wracspurt Away Spray that my dad invented a little while ago on my legs and arms.

I hummed 'Odo the Hero.'

I got dressed in a cubicle and used my wand to dry my hair. When I ran my fingers through my dirty blond hair, it felt silky. My hair slipped through my fingers and my silky hair fell onto my covered shoulders. The bruises on my shoulders burned like my skin was on fire.

Walking out of the bathroom, well skipping out of the bathroom I passed bodies and wreckage of the castles. I tried not to look at them. I was looking dead straight when my shoes found some surface that was liguid-y and slippy. I gulped and looked down at my shoe. Let's call the stuff 'red water', mmkay? 'Cause I don't want to call it -B-blood.

I almost screamed. "Do you want some help?" A deep voice asked from behind me. I gasped and turned and saw Dean. Dean. His face seemed to be planted in my dreams. I smiled at him. "Please," I smiled shyly.

Dean smiled and walked me over to a little platform. He lifted my little form onto the platform and pulled a hankerchief and mopped my shoe up.

Memories filled my mind, like ink in water. Blood!Hate!Pain!Dean!Blood!Hate!Pain!Dean! Dean's form just about dead filled my mind and it felt let a healed wound re-opened. I actually winced. The memory of them fighting together filled my mind and I managed to pull myself out of it and saw Dean smiling up at me.

"All clean." He smiled wider, stretching the already-almost-healed cut under his right eye.

I looked down at my shoe that was total clean. "Thank you, Dean." I leaned down and pecked his cheek. His cheeks flamed red. The was silence. The tension in the air could've been cut with a knife. He opened his mouth to say something but it wasn't his voice that said, "Luna!"

I jumped off the platform and turned to see who called me but I couldn't tell who it was. I just felt lips crush down on me. It wasn't soft like I dreamed my first kiss would be. It was hard and it was as though who ever it was wanted just to get it over with.

"Um... Haiii," said Dean unsure. He was standing up, from what I could see. He looked sad, but also angry. And in his eyes I could detect the hint of jealousy. Woah. I couldn't help thinking. Woah. Oh woah. What is happening to me?

And then, I pulled away and saw the boy that kissed me was...

Ladybug 08-24-2010 07:23 PM

Dreams.

I rubbed my forehead which held my scar. The scar that had made me famous, caused arguments between me and my friends, and a long journey I ended up taking with my best friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger. None of which i wanted ever to be about of my life. What I wished more than anything was that my parents, James and Lily Potter, were still alive. What's more, I wanted my godfather, Sirus Black and everyone else who had died for me. Something I had never asked for in my life. That people would give their lives for me so easily...it was unnerving.

I sat alone in the corner of the great hall, my mind troubled. The dreams still haunted me at night, I woke sweating and panting for breath. Rubbing my hand across my eyes I looked around.

It had been days since the dead had been buried. A few people had chickened out when the burial was going on.I didn't blame them - it was horrible work. The thought of it sent shivers down my back. The look of all those faces was too much to handle for most. Fred, Lupin, Tonks and everyone else now lay as if they were sleeping.

"Harry?" a soft voice behind me said, waking me up from my thoughts and making me jump. I looked over my shoulder into Ginny's eyes. I felt my heart quicken at the sight of her. Her soft skin, her long red hair and her shiny brown eyes. I felt myself smiling, and I felt a little better immediately. She sat down next to me, taking my hand in hers.

"Harry, what's wrong?" She asked looking into my face. I sobered up and sighed, there was no way to fool her and if she knew then Ron and Hermione was bound to have noticed as well. I found it annoying when people tried to pry into my thoughts, but deep down, I know that they were only trying to help.

I shrugged. "I'm fine," I lied to her, looking away. I couldn't meet her eyes. She wasn't stupid, I knew she wouldn't give up so easily.

"Harry, look at me." She extended her hand to pull my head her way. I had no choice but to look at her, "I know it's the dreams that are troubling you. Tell me about them," She said softly, leaning forward to kiss my lips like a breath of wind. I felt my heart quicken as I pulled away and stared into her eyes.

To everyone else we were both single, no longer dating after that time in my sixth year. After I had let her go, to save her. And now that was over, the
dreaded war. Now that was over we still were not together. The thought troubled me, I really like Ginny Weasley, yes. But did she like me? I always asked myself.

Ginny was still looking at me, i could tell. But I was deep in my thoughts. She knew this, of course, so she kept quiet. After a few minutes her patience broke. She leaned her warm hand on my cheek, bringing me back to earth. I stared into her eyes. I knew what was coming.

"Harry, tell me what's wrong," I heard her say, her breath brushing my face. I pulled back sighing. There was no winning.

"Is it the dreams?" She asked me, prying deeper. I nodded.

"Harry..." I heard her murmur. I swallowed and looked away, my cheeks warming. I could sense the concern she felt for me in her voice...and something else. I looked back up. Ginny was closer than I'd expected.

"Ginny," I replied heavily. I was so confused. For the past year, this was all that I'd thought about. Now that it was possible to have a future with Ginny, I couldn't see it happening, and she hadn't approached me, and why was she leaning closer now?

Slowly and hesitantly, as though afraid she'd scare me somehow, Ginny touched her lips to mine.

In an instant, all my worries and brooding for the dead and the injured, all those people who had sacrificed themselves for me...everything vanished.I leaned into the kiss, feeling as though my world at last made sense again. It felt wonderful. And for the time being, I was content.

Paintbrush 08-31-2010 09:24 PM

Love it so far! Great characterization, the various POVS on the situation and the war are really well done. One thing that could make this even better was if you made the posts a bit longer - sometimes I feel like before you have the time to really delve into one character you've already moved onto the next. But apart from that, it's absolutely brilliant *goes off to subscribe* :D

But apart from that, it's absolutely brilliant *goes off to subscribe* :D

Heyaa. I totally see you point hun. I shall try and make mine longer in future. But sometimes it's hard, trying to make it long and interesting to read and all.

Thank You so much for reading also. Im sure there should be a update soon. I hope :D

Chapter 5
A Rueful Kiss

http://i36.tinypic.com/29opbg6.jpg


I stared at her.

Just stared. Luna blinked up at me, obviously shocked. I couldn't understand why. We were on and off... kinda. I went scarlett all the same, and looked at our audience, and my ears went crimson. Dean looked furious. ...But why would he be furious? He had no reason at all. I felt his eyes glare holes into my back but I just looked at Luna.

It didn't feel right.

How could not? I'd pictured this a million times, but the boys in my dorm promised that I would feel like melting when I kissed the girl I loved. I frowned. "N-Neville?" Luna whispered, her eyes wide with confusion. She looked like a little girl. She looked a little panicked at Dean and I knew that Dean wasn't a one man audience. I turned.

Hannah Abbott. Her eyes were wider than poor Luna.

Her face was bloody. Her lips were swollen and her nose was ever so slightly crooked. I winced when I remembered how after I executed Nagini, she ran over to me and ripped her cloak so that she could mop up quickly the blood. I could even remember how her hair had brushed my cheek. Her eyes went hazy and she ran off, crying. Luna looked horrified. I felt horrorfied.

When minutes went by (they seemed like days) and Luna finally said, "Oh Neville." I looked at her and she smiled. I suddenly realized that Dean had left. I would talk to him later. Luna smiled again. "Neville...our we-?" She frowned.

"I guess."

Luna grinned and hugged me but when she pulled away I thought I caught the look of reluctancy. I smiled awkwardly. She brought her lips to mine and I thought I felt something. Then...nothing. Nothing. I grimaced for I split second when we pulled apart. Luna smiled, showing teeth. I mentally hit myself. She was so happy. I love her. Why am I not?

"Do you want to go Wrackspurk hunting?" Luna asked, pulling out two specta-specks.

"Sure." And we walked off, arm-in-arm. Her going on about putting Wrackspurt Away Spray on and wishing she hadn't.

sorry it's so short and crappy. *pout-yFace*

Chapter 6:
A Wrong Thought


http://i55.tinypic.com/20p3jvs.png


I turned the shower off, frustration bubbling over.

Stupid thing, no hot water left. Glaring at the shower, I pulled my underwear up, forgetting to dry off first, so I was soaking them in the process. I swore under my breath. I hadn't bothered bringing clothes, just
my underwear, a bathrobe and a towel. What girl wouldn't want to see my bare chest? I wrapped the towel around my middle just for effect. Chuckling darkly to myself, I abandoned my bathrobe and started down the corridor in my bare feet.

A cluster of girls past me, Romilda Vane included, giggled uncontrollably. A smirk formed on my lips, and my walk turned into a strut. One of the girl's took a sharp intake of breath and stuttered, “H-Hello Dr-Aco?” I raised my eyebrows, and ran a hand through my pale sopping wet hair, droplets flying over to them. Romilda moved away from the group and tried to walk like a model. She tried to look dark, but with her smudged eye-liner and mascara, she resembled some sad raccoon who the other raccoons refused to mate with.

“Hell-ooo Draco.” I arched an eyebrow. “Romilda,” I gave her a jerk of my handsome head to acknowledge her. She stopped in her tracks at the lack of tone in my voice. I continued down the corridor and felt fury fill me as my mother ran up to me, “Draccciess!” I rolled my eyes. She stopped in her tracks and looked down at the towel wrapped around my waist.

“Draco Malfoy, you know better than to go around in the nude.”

I glared holes at her (not exactly at her face, I would be murdered if I did that, no, at her stupidly big hair). “I'm not really naked,” I hissed through my teeth, shooting a glare at Dean Thomas who was snorting back laughter. “I'm wearing underwear underneath,” My mother through back her head and let out a very girly-ish giggle and pinched my cheeks. “N'aww...You silly ickle hormone crazed teen!”

The copper headed blood traitor and the Mudblood passed by. “...And then
I kissed him!”... “Gin, That's great!” But then they stopped short when they heard my mum. Hermione shoved her knuckles into her mouth to stop from laughing. Ginny just let out a laugh that sounded like music. I blushed furiously. I wished she hadn't seen that. I wished that the ground would open up right there and then and swallow me. I wished- Wait! Why did I care if the blood traitor saw me? Frowning I jerked away from my mother's grasp and stalked off to the Slytherin common room.

When I entered the first thing I heard was; “Dracykins!!” I sniffed the air in discust and found that Pansy Parkinson was trying to kiss me. She pulled my neck down and pushed her lips to mine. She slipped her tongue in and tried to get me to kiss her back. I was tempted to spit in her mouth but decided that it was safest just to push her away. She frowned for a split second but smiled and leaned on my shoulder.

She giggled and looked down at the towel. I snorted. She was so stupid. Astoria Greengrass, a fifth year Slytherin, one of the only to come back after the war decended down the stairs to the dorms. She smiled flirtaously at me and plonked down in one of the green sofas with a book. I grinned at her and looked at the cow now playing with a hair on my chest and thought of how she said she came back because she wanted to see her one true love, Dracykins. I scowled at the air and pulled away from her. She let out a shocked moan and went off to sulk on the hardest couch.

I got dressed, the pretty blood traitors face in my mind.

When I got back down, I sat down beside Astoria. She smiled shyly up at me from her book. I frowned briefly and then flashed a smile at her. She was the most un-Slytherin Slytherin I've ever met. “So...How's it, Tori?” I asked, not looking at the cow sulking in the corner. Tori looked up at me, pink colouring her cheeks. “My sister was killed...” She gulped. A wrapped an arm around her in comfort. “Sorry.” “'S okay.” I smiled awkwardly. She went back to her book and I stared at the green flames in the mantle piece. The redheaded girl smiled at me in my mind.

I cursed myself silently for thinking that and stared straight at the cackling flames.

Mistakes.

The corridors were deserted and I didn't see anyone anywhere. Not that I was surprised; the Professors had called everyone to the Great Hall for something. I had slipped out to try and find him. I had noticed Harry hadn't been in the hall and that meant he must be with her! Before I could go any farther in my
thoughts, I saw him. He was strolling towards me - and he was alone! Smiling, I ran the few steps between us and threw myself into his arms. I felt him stumble as he tried to balance me.

"C-Cho!" He managed to gasp as I hugged him. Finally, I let go to look at him, smiling, but without letting go of his hands.

Before I could do or say anything else, I saw her walk around the corner with a smile on her face. Ginny Weasley. Girlfriend to Harry Potter. Well I would put a stop to that. after all, he loved me, didn't he, and not her! Without a second thought I grabbed hold of Harry's face and kissed him. On the mouth. Right in front of Ginny.

I could feel Harry struggling under the kiss, trying to break free. I held on but when I finally let go he jumped a mile from me. I didn't care. He'd soon realize he loved me and not her. Peeking over at Ginny I saw she had her wand raised, at me! I stepped back a little, her face bore pure anger - directed
at me Uh oh... I looked at Harry, who had surprise and horror playing on his face, looking at Ginny also.

I knew i was going to be hexed. People had warned me not to mess with Ginny Weasley. I had ignored them, and now i was going to pay the price. I closed my eyes and waited. But the impact never came. Opening my eyes i saw Harry take hold of Ginny and turned her so her back was to me. I watched him stare into her eyes. There was such love there in his eyes, and it stung. What had I done? They were sure to fight about me.

There was no way to deny Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley were in love.

I wish i could take back the kiss, the thoughts. I wish i had never fallen for Harry but he had seemed such the gentleman after Cedric had died. Always willing to help others before himself, and I had slowly fallen for him. I didn't want to turn into some girl - like Lavender Brown, who constantly tried to
steal other people's boyfriends. I stepped back wishing the ground would swallow me up.

"The-the Professor's want everyone in the Great Hall" I stammered, continuously backing away. They didn't respond to me or each other. I didn't care. I turned and fled, I didn't want to be there when their voices raised. I blame myself.

http://i768.photobucket.com/albums/x...ndoms/dean.png


The Beginning.

"B4"

I watched as my chess piece moved forward to knock Seamus's off the board. I laughed triumphantly. I was winning. People, mostly spectators, cheered all around us. The atmosphere around the school had lifted the past few weeks, now supporting happiness like in the old days.

Everyone were lingering all around the Great Hall. Some cheering our game, some talking, some kissing etc. We were all waiting for something, the reason we were all called into the Great Hall instead of enjoying the beautiful weather and the freedom of not having to fear the darkest wizard in the world. Well,
the darkest wizard in England, anyway.

Looking over across the hall I saw the clustered Professor's huddled together, talking in low voices. They seemed to be arguing about something. Maybe what they were going to tell us. I shrugged and directed my eyes around the hall again. My eyes fell on a girl as she ran through the hall door's. I recognized her as Cho Chang. She looked like she had been running, and looked a bit upset. Before I could act upon my thoughts of seeing what was wrong, I was interrupted by cheering all around me. I whipped my head round to see one of my knights being dragged off the board in piece's. Damn!

"Not as good at this as you thought, are you?" Seamus taunted me as I scanned the board for my next move. I finally moved my king after a few minutes. Now it was war between us.

I looked back over to where i had seen Cho, she had disappeared and in her place stood the newly reunited couple, Ginny and Harry. They were wrapped up in each other's arms, I noticed. I looked away in...sadness? anger? I really didn't know what to think about my ex girlfriend now dating the famous Harry Potter.

Happy? I sighed.

Peeking down at the nearly finished chess game for like the tenth time in a minute I noticed a mistake Seamus had made in a move of his. Didn't he notice? Smiling i barked my command and watched my piece take out his. My smile widened at his groan.

"Ladies and Gentleman--!" A voice suddenly boomed stopping mine and Seamus's chess game, and everything else anyone had been doing a second before. I faced the now speaking Professor McGonagall. I saw the Professors line up behind her. "Firstly, I'd like to announce we will be opening the school again next year, for all those who would have finished their seventh year this year and would like to come back again to retake it please see me later." She paused as she scanned the room. She didn't have the same affect on the students that Professor Dumbledore had possessed, but she still held people's attention.

"But what I have called you all here today to talk about is.." She continued still scanning the hall for any wrong doers. "...That after much of a discussion from all of your Professor's here, we have decided to hold a Wizard Game's here this summer. All those who reach the age limit may enter. If you
would like to enter your name for any other the games then please see me after."
She stopped again, waiting for the raised chatter to die down a little, "The list of the games which will be held will shortly be posted in the common rooms," She added last before stepping down.

Instantly the noise in the hall raised to a high climax. My chess game was abandoned as i excitedly started to talk to Seamus about which game i would possibly enter. It was going to be so exciting. I peeked around the hall again, noticing Draco talking and laughing with some girl, whom I knew as Astoria. I stared for a few second's before moving on. Not to far away from them stood Harry Potter and his two best friends, Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger. Ginny Weasley also stood holding Harry's hand.

Jumping up from my seat I pushed my way through the mass of student's until I was standing next to them.

"Can you believe this?" I asked excitedly. "This is going to be so fun!" I declared smiling at them all. I heard Ginny giggle at me as i ranted on, and I smiled at her.

"You guys should enter. I bet you'd win hands down!" I carried on much to their amusement. Pausing for breath I looked around at them all, still smiling. I watched as they turned to look at each other, silently talking. Finally Ron shrugged and answered for them.

"Sure why not?" he said, much to my delight.

So what did you think?

Chapter 9:
Brown Eyes


http://i853.photobucket.com/albums/a...ilEHxx/ron.png


I stared down at the headline on the daily prophet, my mouth hanging open.

The headline read in big, thick, bulging writing:

Quote:

Originally Posted by The Daily Prophet
Harry Potter; Defeated the Dark Lord ...but is he still a Coward?


Rita Skeeter has found evidence from a close source to that Harry James Potter, the conquer of the Dark Lord, was supposedly 'killed' by He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named running away from the grounds, wishing to escape the dreadfulness and pain that was the legendary battle at Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry. Ms. Skeeter has written a article on this battle that will surely go down in Wizarding history. In Skeeter's piece, she notes the “bravery” of Neville Longbottom who slaughtered the beloved snake of You-Know-Who, Nagini for some unknown reason, how Ginevra Weasley murdered innocent souls cruel fully during the battle and of course, the cowardness that is Harry Potter and so much more. turn to page 2.

Hermione read the blurb over my shoulder and the out an insulted gasp. “That. Hell. Of. A. Cow.” She hissed through her ground teeth. She snatched the prophet from my numb hands and balled it up into a little ball. Hermione pulled out her new wand and tossed the ball of parchment into the air. She did a non-verbal spell and the parchment sizzled and burst into flames. It faded into black as night ash and hissed as it disappeared into nothingness.

But Harry had already seen it. He had tossed it to me minutes beforehand. And not before reading it. I don't think he really cared about what the cow said about him. I think what really set him off was what the thing had talked about Ginny that way even though they weren't in a relationship, he kept looking at Ginny with a look of longing.

Ginny kept wincing at every glance someone gave her.

Now, I looked at her, afraid of what I might see. It was not true at all true. Someone had made it up completely. If there was anyone that was completely innocent and pure in this room, it was my baby sister. She had read it and fumed and then disappeared for around half-an-hour and then reappeared a few minutes ago for lunch with a blotchy face that betrayed her.

“Gin, you okay?” Blink. Blink. “Ye-Yeah. Of course.” She scoffed and looked away.

Hermione, red-faced, slipped into the empty space beside me. I gave her a shy half-smile and took her little, delicate hand in mine and felt the difference of a heat mingle. She smiled and gave my hand a firm but soft squeeze. We looked at Mom as she ladled out French Onion soup. The bowls she gave us were huge.

She stared at the big pot and chewed her lower lip. “There's still loads left.” she mumbled to herself. “Would anyone like so more?” I shook my head and Hermione raised a brow in amusement. “You're rejecting food?!?” She and Ginny burst into fits of giggles. Finally, Ginny said through laughs;

“I-I – Hah – think – TeeHee – I will – bbrriinngg – Hahhahahah – Harryyyyy – Aaaaa – B-b-bowlll -”
Mom smiled a little and ladled out soup and sliced some bread magically. With a wave of her Oak wand, a tray materialized in mid air and hovered at her shoulder. She dropped the bowl lightly onto it and put the soup and bread onto it. Mom waved the magical stick over the lunch and murmured a heating charm over it so that Ginny could it her soup before taking it up to Harry.

Mom frowned at the still full pot of soup. She sighed.

We all knew the reason she was tucking us in at night, making sure we had brushed our teeth and went to the loo, feeding us mountains for portions was because she didn't want to think of Fred. None of us did. We all loved Fred ...but I think a lot of us were worried about poor Teddy Lupin who was officially an orphan, now.

My spoon scraped the bottom of the bowl. I stared at it in longing but I felt if I ate even just half-a-spoon, I would puke it all up. I gulped slightly sadly and looked up at Hermione.

Her eyes were wide and I almost felt I could see into her soul. They were... beautiful... big... brown... beautiful... beautiful... I swallowed something that probably was my Adam's apple. I pulled out my wand and a bowl half the size of ours and pushed it towards my mom. Hermione's big, brown eyes widened and went wet and she croaked,
“Molly, will you give us some soup f-for Kreacher?” She blinked away tears. “[I]Kreacher?[I]” Mom blinked. “All right then.” Shrug. She poured the soup.

“Um, Kreacher?” Hermione called out nervously and we were surprised when there was a tiny pop. “Ms. Granger. Mr. Weasleyyy.” The house-elf croaked in acknowledgement. Hermione soundlessly gave him the bowl of soup and a tennis ball sized tear rolled down his face. He took it and stared at it. He wiped his nose on his skinny on his towel that was definitely needing a was now. He smiled wryly up at us and I mentally winced. It was a grimace. He held the bowl to his lips and tipped it's contents down his throat. The soup was gone in seconds.

He propped the bowl up onto the table and burst into tears. Hermione started crying and I patted her back soothingly. We both knew that Kreacher obviously was starving. And the way his leathery skin stuck to his bones and the way he was barely able to walk gave me the thought that the poor thing hadn't eaten in weeks. Hermione tried to hug him and my eyes widened when the house-elf let her. “Mom?” Mrs. Weasley poured some more soup into his bowl and Kreacher took it gratefully and sipped it. He smiled at us and popped.

Ginny wandered in empty handed, humming.

Hermione's brow shot up into her hair as my baby sister slid into the space beside her. I frowned at her and Ginny demanded, “What?” I stood up and muttered that I was gonna go see Harry. As soon as I was feet away, Hermione hissed, “What happened?” I broke into a sprint, ready to kill Harry if something other than 'Hi.' 'Uh..Hi.' 'I brought you soup.' 'Thanks.' happened.

__I found Harry in his bed reading a sparkling gold book that read; Twelve Fail Safe Ways to Charm Witches. I grinned and guessed that nothing happened between him and Gin. She's just hiding how upset she is about what the cow, Skeeter wrote about her. I sniffed. Harry looked up and flushed, “Hey Ron.” I let out a sigh. “Did anything happen between Gin and...you?” Harry shook his head, eyes wide. I breathed a sigh of relief and set down at the edge of the bed. Harry bookmarked the page he was on and blinked at me. “I'm sorry Ron.” I raised a brow and understood exactly what he meant. “Hey, you're my best mate. Don't worry.” My voice broke.

“Thanks mate.”

“No prob.”

And we had one of those very manly hugs with loads of back pounding.

Chapter Ten:
Words.


http://i768.photobucket.com/albums/x...oms/lavlav.png



I stared with disbelief at the Daily Prophet before me. It was propped up against a juice jug as I munched down my food. Politely, I might add. The spoon slipped from my hand and splashed some soup over my clean clothes, but I hardly noticed. I was staring at the page before me. Dean and Cho were sitting on either side of me. They both turned to stare at me, their eyebrows raised - which I never saw, since I was too busy staring at the paper in disbelief. The headline loomed from the page before me. "Harry Potter A Coward?" It blared. The question spun round my head while I looked.

"Uh, Lavender, are you all right?" I heard Cho ask me, although it seemed so far away. I ignored her, still looking at the headline before me. "Lavender." I heard Cho press forward. I shook her away. I swallowed as I curled my hands around the newspaper. I was going to throw It away, burn It or something. But before I could think of anything like that I felt someone grab my shoulder and turn me to face them. I noticed it was Dean.

"What's wrong Lavender?" He pressed urgently, scared. Merlin’s Beard, I'm not dying! I said In my head before waving the newspaper In his face.

"Have you seen this?" I asked, the paper dropped In front of him, splashing cereal everywhere. I watched at Dean picked up the paper and studied It, Cho peeking over his shoulder. I waited impatiently for them to finish. "Well...?" I asked once they both looked up, amusement playing on their faces.

"It's not real Lavender, It's just made up so Skeeter can have the limelight, as usual," Dean told me while Cho tried not to laugh behind him. I wasn't stupid, but...why aren't they defending Harry? I asked myself glaring at him. "Fine. I'll go ask Hermione," I huffed, after a moment's pause I grabbed the newspaper and jumped up, storming over to where I knew Hermione would be.

I noticed she was sitting with Ginny and Mrs. Weasley. I also noticed Ron's retreating form leave the room - at which I was glad. Throwing myself down next to Hermione, I shoved the paper In front of her.

"What the hell does this mean?" I watched at the girl looked up at me In amusement. I was beyond thinking this was a joke, I had watched the famous Harry
Potter kill Lord Voldemort and she was having It thrown back In his face!? No I wasn't having any of it, he deserved better. And better then Ginny Weasley may I add, but I knew to keep my mouth shut on that one. Out of the corner of my eye I saw Ginny watching me, and Mrs. Weasley walking away shaking her head. She took the soup with her.

Hermione flicked her eyes over the paper, "Well It's what it looks like Lavender. Another article by Rita Skeeter" She responded, laughter in her voice.

"Don't talk to me like I'm stupid, Hermione. You and I both know its all rubbish!" I could feel my voice rising. But I really didn’t know why I was standing up for Harry, we never really got on. Maybe I thought that if I stood up for him Ron would see me as a better person than Hermione Granger.

"Don't you care what she's actually saying about Harry?" I asked before she could respond. The next bit became a surprise. I hadn't expecting the girl to flip like she had done. I jumped back as I suddenly saw Ginny’s face very close to mine. She looked angry. More than angry. "How dare you!" She thundered. I jumped back, not really sure what was happening. I only commented!

"I didn’t mean it like that!" I cried trying to gather where the conversation was going. My head swarmed where I was confused about the whole situation. Ginny glared at me. Hermione had won the battle of getting Ginny to leave me, and for that I was thankful. The floor was really getting my clothes dirty, and I would have to go reapply my make-up again. Sigh.

I shakily lowered myself back onto the seat next to Hermione. The paper was still before us, at which I stole a glance at. My head was ringing as I waited for it to clear so I could actually hear what was being said around me. After a few minutes I began to hear what Hermione was hissing to Ginny, though I did have to strain my ears a little. I just noticed Dean sit next to me from the corner of my eye. I hadn't realized he had heard the conversation she had just had a few moments before with Ginny.

"...you really need to calm your temper Ginny....talk to Harry about It, I’m sure he'll understand....just talk to him..." Of course I only heard parts of their conversation as It really was such a low pitch for my ears. Though it did bug me not knowing what they meant. Still watching the girls I never noticed Dean come up behind me until he spoke in my ear.

"What was all that between you and Ginny?" He asked. I could feel his breath on the back of my neck. And it was annoying. Not looking at him I waved him away just before Hermione turned back to me, whatever she had been saying to Ginny before had obviously sunk In.

"Well..." I asked folding my arms. The girl before me didn’t smile nor show any signs of laughter. She looked grave.

"Don't go kidding yourself, Lavender. Ron and I have been with Harry since he was eleven and Ginny not long after. Now I know all this has nothing to do
about the headline or Harry..."
She paused. "This has to do about me and Ron being together. Well let me tell you Lavender It's going to stay that way so you can just leave us alone."

"He was never right for you," I shot back.

I huffed and pulled myself away from the table, was I ever going to get a proper answer? Were they ever going to take all this seriously? The question loomed in my head as I pushed past Dean and headed back to my seat. I never really knew why I had flipped like I had, cared so much about some stupid headline. It was all stupid. It's because you like Ron and hope he'd think your better then Hermione. A voice in my head told me.

Before I could get further then a few steps away I saw Harry and Ron enter the Great Hall. I froze, Dean at my elbow. I wished he would just leave me alone, I wish I could just have a few minutes with Ron. Tell him how I feel and make him love me. I watched them both walk towards us. Dean watched me while I watched the two boys advance towards us. Waving at him again to leave me alone I heard him huff and walk away. There goes that friendship for a while.

When they got close enough I watched Ginny throw herself Into Harry's arm's, burying her head In his chest. He held her close as he looked at Hermione quizzically. But before Ron took another step towards Hermione I jumped at the chance. Smiling I called his name.

"Ronald!" He turned to study me, also confused.

"Lavender," he replied, turning away a little.

"Oh..." I tugged his sleeve "Have you seen today Daily Prophet?" I asked, trying to make conversation. Make him look me In the eye and love me again.

He pulled free and nodded. No words, just actions. Frowning I decided to try a different method. "I seem the only one to really care about It" I said, my voice raising a little. I flicked a glance at Hermione and Ginny smirking. Staring back at Ron I realized he was staring at me as If I had lost It, I might have but I wasn't going to agree.

"You can't be serious. Everyone knows anything written by Rita Skeeter Is rubbish" He told me, turning his back on me. I couldn't believe that he was just
turning his back on me, after everything we went through sixth year. Didn’t that mean anything? He meant everything to me. But I knew it would never be, I just didn’t want it to end. Time for something new, he'd regret leaving me after this. I opened my mouth.

"You'll regret letting me go Ronald. When you end it with her..." I glared at Hermione. If glares could kill I certainly achieved that! "When you break up I shan’t be there to help you. You’ll be on your own" I angrily said to him turning away. Hermione, Ginny and Harry hadn't said a word.

"What makes you think me and Hermione will break up?" He paused while I turned slightly in his direction. "And what makes you think I'll turn to you for help?" The tips of his ears had turned red, a sign of anger. Sigh. He was always so cute when he was angry. Without thinking I walked over and kissed him lightly on the cheek. "Believe me you will" I whispered in his ear. "When you realize I mean more to you then her!" I added stepping back. Oh how I loved him.

"And I will prove It!" I said more loudly turning away. I would show him like I said, I was far better than that Hermione Granger any day.

I was going to enter the Wizard Games.

Heya :) Thanks for reading.
Ah yeah the chapter guide...both our ideas :D
As for who's together, well Harry/Ginny Hermione/Ron Luna/Neville at the moment. There' also Dean, Cho, Lavender, Angela, Draco, George. Though out of those you will find out later who's together.

Im sure Lily will post her chapter real soon.

sorry for keeping ye, my gran and sis have been into hospital. *sadface* I'm really sorry for the lateness, crapiness and shortness. :blush:

Chapter 11:
A Strange Feeling
http://i52.tinypic.com/2jgx3m.png


I felt...empty.

I can't describe it. I just felt as though part of me was ripped off. I ran my hands through my red hair and felt a sudden breeze whistle through the hole in my head. My hair was shaggy now. I let it grow that way so that no one would see...where my ear was.

"Georgie, come on and let us support you,"

Mother had been trying to plead with me for a while now. I ignored her, staring blankly into the fireplace, a untouched bottle of Ogden's Firewhiskey in my hand. Blink.. b...l....i...n...k. My body was working sluggishly.

My whole family stood around my trying unsuccessfully to soothe me.

Someone loudly entered the Common Room. "Oh, Angelina. We'll leave you two alone," my mother said with a sad sing-song lilt. There was a bustling and I found myself alone with a girl I once loved.

"George," she cupped my cheek and made me look up at her. "There is no use being upset," I said nothing and looked at her. Angelina Johnson, the girl who rejected me and willingly went to the dance with my brother. The girl who dated my twin. The girl who snogged Fred. The girl who was my other half's first. The girl who I loved.

The girl who I still loved.

"George, I loved him. Heck, I still do. But, he's gone."

I edged away slightly but she had me in an awkward embrace. "He's g-gone George. He died a hero." I didn't hug her back or reply. I just sat stone still. "George..Please don't let him die in vain. He died for the people he loved." So she was saying that I wasn't allowed grieve? Why did I even like this girl? 'Stop twisting what she said around,' a small voice in my head whispered.

I sighed and wrapped my arms around her ribs and heard her soft sobs.

Tears stung my brown eyes.

"Tell me more about him."

"You dated him, you would know."

She pulled away.

"I know, but please, let me help you."

I shuffled further away, glaring at anything but her.

"Please,"

And before I knew what was happening, her lips were on mine. They tasted exactly like I thought. I had always saw her apply coconut lipstick to her dark lips and now I could taste the gloss. I opened my mouth all too willingly to deepen the kiss when I felt her tongue request permission. Her hands tangled into my shaggy hair. The passion was dublacating and I felt fire burning somewhere inside of me...

I jumped away, gasping and backed away from her, shaking my head with wide eyes. "No Angie, we can't. You're- Were dating Fred, it isn't right for us to get together."

Angelina had tear tracks running down her face. "George-"

But I had already dissapperated.

Now I know what Harry felt like kissing the human hosepipe.



So tell me how crap it was or how good it was. Lily

Without futher ado here is your chapter. Please comment.


http://i768.photobucket.com/albums/x...s/hermione.png


So much was happening at once, and it wasn't long since the last battle - the biggest battle I had ever witnessed. I wasn't going to pretend and say that I was not scared, because hell, I was scared out of my mind, but now there was some sort of wizard games going on. The castle hadn't even been rebuilt yet! Not even a little. But that wasn't my place to say. I had better things to do anyway, now that the world was safe. (Thinking that made me smile wryly to myself. It sounded so cheesy and fake, like something from a Muggle comic book. “Super Potter saves the world from the evil villain Lord Voldemort!” the tabloids would scream.) I pushed those thoughts to the back of my mind as I made my way down to the Great Hall, taking the stairs two at a time. I was pretty hungry.

Just as I touched the floor outside the Great Hall, I almost ran into Luna, who was as dreamy as ever. I smiled, it had been so long since I had seen her, and she naturally brought a small smile to my face even if she was still loony.

"Hello Luna" I said politely, not really in the mood to stop and chat.

"Hello Hermione, I hope you are well?" she asked in her slow, dreamy voice. I nodded my head. We exchanged words for a few minutes more before I broke off (I really was hungry) and headed inside the Great Hall itself. Dropping into my seat next to Ron, I pulled the nearest plate towards me and began to wolf down the food. I watched Ron raise his eyebrows at me as if he could only be the pig in their relationship. I rolled my eyes.

"What?" I asked around a mouthful of food.

"Nothing." He responded, shaking his head. I put another forkful of food into my mouth before settling my cutlery down. I looked around me to notice who was or wasn't there. I recognized a few friendly faces as I flicked my eyes around, but there were also some people I only knew by face, not name.

"Where are Ginny and Harry?" I asked Ron; I looked left and right up the table to see if they were somewhere else along the table, and I just hadn’t seen them. No such luck. Ron shrugged his shoulders. Not that he'd care to be honest. I sighed.

Boys.

"So are you going to enter the wizard games?" I asked him, perking up. I smiled my sweetest smile in his direction and waited for his answer. I took a small sip of my pumpkin juice; Ron gave a short laugh before he answered.

"No thanks, I’ve had enough excitement for one lifetime," He said.

"Come on Ron, this is different! You should enter, it'll help you in the future." I felt I might have been my usual bossy self so bit down hard on my lip. He’d never liked that. I had the strange idea that we had already had this conversation, like déjà vu. And by the look of Ron's face he thought so too, but I wasn't backing down.
"You’ll win, I just know it!" I added smiling, he shook his head.

"No" he simply said taking a sip of his drink. I gave him a playful glare. "You enter, then," he said, looking at my face.

"Maybe I will," I joked sticking my tongue out at him. Ron suddenly leaned forward and kissed me lightly on the lips. I jumped a little in initial shock, but then I relaxed, leaned forward, and my eyes drifted closed. After a second it grew deeper and I wrapped my arms around his shoulders. One of his hands cupped my jaw, and I could feel the other on my back, pressing me closer. My stomach tingled. This was why I loved Ron so much, for moments like this. After what felt like a lifetime, but could only have been few seconds, we broke apart.

"You’ll do great" he whispered in my ear, he was clearly out of breath.

"Whoa, if that’s going to be your reaction, what are we waiting for?" I whispered, suddenly serious. After another small kiss I reluctantly pulled away and made to grab my bag. Parchment and Quill in hand I began to scribble.

"What are you doing?" I head Ron say next to me, but it felt light-years away all of a sudden.

"Entering of course," I replied finishing what I needed to write. Standing up, I put my hand out for him, which he took instantly. Bag over shoulders we headed to the entrance hall. It was only a short walk, but with Ron's hand in mine I loved every second of it.

"I was only kidding you know," Ron said as we stepped into the entrance hall. The goblet sat in the middle of the room. It was subtly there, but our eyes were drawn straight to it. It looked a lot like the goblet of fire, but different in features. We stopped, both taking a deep breath before stepping over the white line that surrounded the goblet. I stood on tiptoes to drop my piece of parchment into the object, setting myself on my own two feet, Ron holding my waist to help (I had always been on the short side) and stepped back out of the magic circle pulling Ron with me. It was done. There was no turning back, though I had the sudden urge to un-enter. I was hitting myself mentally. What was I doing? I was now entered into the tournament, and what if it was my name that actually came out? I didn’t want all that! How had Harry done it? I panicked.

Before I could dwell on it anymore I felt Ron squeeze my fingers as we watched the cup. "You’ll do great!" he repeated, looking sideways at me. I didn't reply, I didn't need to reply. He knew what I was thinking. After one more look at the goblet we turned and headed towards the grounds, hand in hand, unaware that the now surprisingly quiet Great Hall had watched the whole thing.

McGonagall; A History

Some Suspicous Person...


I stared at the copper cup with blue flames. I sighed. "I'm going to do it." I took a deep breath in and pulled out a crumpled tissue. A slightly used tissue. ...Maybe not. I thought vaguely and looked around the wand-lit room. Pieces of burnt paper lay around the Goblet. I tried not to look at the names but I couldn't help it.

I glanced down and gave a low whistle. So the Goblet didn't think Harry Potter should enter the Wizarding Games. ...Weird. I gulped and grabbed that piece of paper. I quickly scribbled out Harry's name and wrote my own with an everlasting quill. I stared at my scribbled writing.

"I can't do it. I'd be crap in the Wizard games."

But I guess I was holding the piece of paper to loosely and a blast of wind sailed through the open door and lifted up the parchment. It zoomed over the Goblet and I let out a sigh of relief that it didn't land in the blue flames. But the Goblet had other ideas. The flames went extremely high and caught the piece of parchment with my name on it.

"Oh no." I whispered hoarsly.

Then I heard steps running away. ...Someone had put my name in. Now all I could do was hope that the Goblet would NOT chose me.

Normal P.O.V


Headmistress Minervra McGonagall liked to think she was a tolerable woman.

She tolerated with the first years when they were homsick - sometimes she'd even brought them hot choco and gave them a hug. She tolerated Fliche's constant whining. Heck. She even tolerated the Carrows - she would always do stuff like that for her pupils.

...But she would not tolerate what was before her eyes right now.

It was great to see love after such a legendary war. And Minervra knew all to well that teenagers had...well, feelings but this was rediculous! The young couple hadn't even noticed her presence. They were in a corner, looked in a tight embrace up against wall. The two were kissing so fiercly that Minervra couldn't even tell who was who! All she could tell of their features...well nothing.

She cleared her throat. The two continued. She cleared her throat again...louder this time. No responce. Minervra was getting ANN-OYED. She whipped out her wand and whispered "Aguamenti." Water flooded from the tip of her wand and shot the young couple with water.

The two turned around and looked incredibly annoyed. Their glares
disspeared only to be replaced by fierce blushes. Minervra thought she'd be surprised. ...Of course she wasn't. The Weasleys' were involved. ...They usually were.

“Mr. Weasley! Miss Johnson! What do you think you are doing?!” Of course she knew exactly what they were doing – but she would make them blush. That was, the McGonagall way was it not? It wasn't the Minervra way but still. The couple shuffled their feet. No answer. Minervra narrowed her eyes. “I wish for an answer. I will wait right here until I hear one.”

George Weasley looked up at Minervra. A frown flashed across her face but disappeared quickly. When Minervra was watching him, the young wizard seemed to having fun but know Minervra could see load sof emotions in his wide, sad, brown eyes. And not one of them was happy.

“Uhm...Well, professor- Headmistress McGonagall, we were...we were...well, we were snogging...”

Ugh. She hated that term. 'Snogging.' People could atleast try to sound posh or something but nope. They choose to use something that sounds like passing a disease. Actually 'snogging' or kissing was passing diseases!

“Well, I do NOT want to see it again. No public displays of affection. There are youngsters around here.” Minervra snapped (but not too harshly, mind you), while fiddled with the golden band with a single ruby on it. Angelina and George went a deeper shade of red. “Yes, Headmistress.” They said in unision. Minervra sighed and turned on her heel and walked off.

McGonagall walked to her office and shut the door. Albus Dumbledore's painting was now moved over a space. Over her desk, Severus Snape's portrait was gazing out the window while all other portraits slept.

“Severus.” Minervra gave him a curt nod which her returned. She sat at her desk and stared at her ring. Her beautiful ring. She couldn't stop the memory that she loved so much. But after that memory, she knew her most hated would come.

****

A twenty-year-old Minervra McGonagall came running to the sound of the door opening. There, at the front door was one of the most handsome men she ever saw. “Artie! What are you doing here?” She gasped, but sprinted over and hugged him anyway. Artie ruffled his mousy, floppy hair, beads of sweat forming on his forehead.

“Well, I was wondering, Minervra. Minnie.” He stepped away from her and pulled something out of his coat pocket. When he opened the tiny little box there was a gold band inside with a single bright red ruby. Minervra's eyes widened. “Will you marry me?” Minervra kissed him. “Of course!” Artie giggled stupidly. “Great. Hehehe.”

****


Minervra smiled. Then the next memory hit her hard and she winced.

The stone wall felt cold against my hand as I leaned across it, peeking around the corner slightly to watch the couple that stood there. He held her in his arms while she had her arms wrapped around his neck. They were in a passionate embrace totally oblivious to someone watching them. I felt anger boil up from my stomach. She was totally stealing my man! He was mine and that...girl was stealing him. My hands curled up into fists as I continued to watch and just as I had the mind to storm in and make a scene I heard someone say my name behind me.

"Lavender?" I whipped around to find Neville behind me, nervous. I sighed.

"What do you want, Neville?" I asked him, peeking back over my shoulder at the kissing couple. I didn't notice Neville look as well.

"You should leave them alone, you know," He responded. Oh, sure, trust him to be the responsible one.

"What do you really want?" I asked, getting a bit annoyed. He looked more nervous than before.

"They love each other you know, maybe you should leave them be," he continued looking down at his hands. I knew now why he had come to me, and frankly I didn’t want to hear it.

"Just leave me alone" I turned away from him to find that Ron and Hermione had left while I had been talking to Neville. I turned my frustration towards him

"Why couldn’t you have left me alone?" I demanded, "I will get what's mine sooner or later and I don't care what anybody says!" I cried before pushing past him and running down the hall. I whipped tears from my eyes as I ran, not really caring who saw me, as the halls were more packed these days due to the coming cold weather. I knew I pushed past a few people and heard yells as I ran. Some were full of concern, some anger.

Within minutes I was outside in the cold weather, I pulled my not so warm jumper towards me as I ran a good distance away from the castle. I threw myself down to the ground and burst into more tears. I really don't know how long I was on the cold grass before I felt someone sit next to me. I peeked though my fingers and wiped my eyes to find Ron sitting next to me.

"Neville told me he saw you," He said after I had sat up fully, my face quickly re-buried In my hands. He continued, "You need to stop this, Lavender. I love Hermione and that's that." I let my hands drop to look at him.

"But what about us?" I said.

"There is no us, and there never will be!" I heard him say. Tears started falling from my eyes again. "You need to understand that." He added last before standing.

"You'll regret it...choosing her over me," I threatened.

"No I won’t, she's the most beautiful women I’ve ever met," he said, standing up and walking swiftly away. A thought came to my mind as he went: It must have hurt him a lot to say what he said, because he had never been an emotional person. Maybe he was changing, I thought.

I wiped the rest of my tears away before standing up, brushing any grass from my clothes. I wouldn't stop loving him, I knew, but I also knew he was right: I needed to stop loving him. Find someone else. With a sigh I began to walk back to the castle.

I felt Ron sit down next to me at the breakfast table, Ginny sat on the other side of me while Hermione sat opposite with Neville. It felt like the old gang, plus extras were all together again. I smiled to myself at the thought, but Hermione broke my thoughts.

"What’s the matter with you Ronald?" I looked at my best friend; I had to admit he seemed annoyed. The famous red ears were showing.

"Nothing." He mumbled, pulling a plate of food towards him to stuff into his mouth. I left it at that: I didn't need to know any more. Let’s say it's a guy thing. Hermione, however, didn't; I groaned as she carried on and looked at Ginny. She smiled at me. She too knew where this would end.

"There's most certainly something wrong with you Ronald....and you would mind not stuffing your face?" Hermione asked, clearly annoyed. Ron threw his cutlery down on his plate and looked up at Hermione, swallowing the rest of his food.

"I told you I was fine," I heard him say as he glared at his girlfriend. Oh dear this was going bad. I tried to break in…maybe keep a little peace…?

"Guys, maybe now's not the right time?" I asked politely.

"Stay out of this, Harry!" they both said in unison. I sighed and went back to my food.

"Well, you don't look fine. I only wanted to know what's wrong," Hermione shot at him.

"Why can't you ever believe my answer? You’ll always question me!" Ron also cried, as their voices began to get louder.

"Well maybe if you didn't lie to me all the time, then I wouldn’t need to question you!" People were beginning to turn and stare, though most of them were already used to the couple’s arguments. It was always fun to watch.

"Lie to you? Whenever have I lied to you?" Ron demanded. Hermione put her knife and fork down onto her plate as she answered.

"All the time! I can never trust you, Ron!" she yelled at him. I looked up at her surprised - I had so far been trying to ignore the latest argument -she had never said anything like this before. I looked at Ginny and Neville in turn - they too were shocked and looking at Hermione. Lastly I looked at Ron. His face was bright red, though his ears were redder. He was glaring at Hermione.

"Fine!" He cried after a moment throwing his arms in the air, "We're through," He added more quietly, pushing away from the table and storming out of the Great Hall. Everyone stayed quiet; everyone in the hall was staring at either Hermione or Ron. I looked at Hermione; she had tears in her eyes.

"I didn't mean..." she whispered.

"It sure sounded like you did…” I said before someone sat down next to me. It was Lavender, I groaned. I really didn't like the girl and neither did Hermione, who was now glaring again.

"What do you want?"

"You’re wrong you know," Lavender started, her voice quiet so only Hermione and I could hear her. Everyone else in the hall began to slowly go back to their own things, clearly thinking the scene was old news. "He told me earlier that he thought you were the most beautiful woman in the world." I heard Lavender continue and was stunned. Ron never said anything like that, even if he thought of it. Hermione was clearly thinking the same thing, as she covered her mouth with her hands and tears fell from her eyes.

"I...I…" I heard her say. Standing up, she ran from the room without finishing her sentence.

"Did he...really...say that?" I heard Ginny ask, clearly more stunned, and she was after all his sister. I turned towards her smiling.

"He sure did." I replied.

"That’s...that’s so sweet." She replied, and turned her eyes to look into mine. I felt my insides melt when looking at her; she was the most beautiful women I have even met. I told her as much as I kissed her on the lips.

Chapter 13:
McGonagall; A History


I’m coming home
I’m coming home
Tell the World I’m coming home
Let the rain wash away all the pain of yesterday
I know my kingdom awaits and they’ve forgiven my mistakes
I’m coming home, I’m coming home
Tell the World that I’m coming


“I'm just going to the shops to get more formula for the baby. Okay?”
Minervra McGonagall pecked her husband's cheek. He sighed. “Alright.” She jostled the sleeping baby in her arms and handed him over. She pecked the baby's forehead and nuzzled his cheek. “I'll be right back, Charles. Okay?” She looked up at Artie. “I will.” she promised.

He was only worried, as he had a right to be, because they recently had to go into hiding because Artie had killed a deatheater who had used the Cruciatis curse on Minervra and force her into becoming a deatheater. They knew the deatheater's wife and siblings would come and try to hurt them.

“I love you Minnie.”

“I love you Arthur.”

“If you asked me to travel across broken glass in my bare feet I would. I would do anything for you. Because I only want to make you as happy as you make me!” He had whispered the very same words on their wedding night. She stroked his cheek.

“Why are you acting like this is the last time we shall see eachother?”

He gave her a soft, gentle kiss on the lips that lasted forever it seemed. “It may very well be.”


**

His kiss never had ended. Minervra still felt it burn on her lips. She was glad about that but she forbid herself to think to much about it for it always made her cry.

**

She apperated into her lawn. She was allowed to becaus it was one of the many all wizarding towns. Wizards surrounded the house. Flames spilled out of windows. She screamed. “Minnie! Minnieeeeeee!” Artie's voice shouted. She ran into the house even though wizards tried
to stop her.

Flames. Everywhere. The flames made shapes of dragons and snakes and the like. Dragon breath. “ARTIE!” She shouted, only weeping as she climbed over flaming rubble to find her family. She could hear coughing and a baby's crying from the Sitting Room. She ran in coughing and spluttering.

Artie was trapped under the fallen couch. In his stretched out arms were Charles, coughing and crying. Minervra sprinted over as fast as she could. She scooped Charles and tried with one arm to lift the couch but flames were now licking it. “Minnie....G-go.” Minervra was panting and then looked down at Artie who reached out to her. “Not without you!” She took his hand. “Please...Go...” And then he no longer had a grip. She stood shocked but then calling from outside. She ran, covering Charles nose and mouth with her jumper.


**
Tears ran down her face.

**

Outside Minervra fell to her knees and hugged her baby to her chest. “Artie..Oh Charles what will we do?” She wept and kissed the top of her son's head. “Mmmmaaaa.” “Mama's here.” She rocked her baby slowly. And then breathing stopped. Charles lovely little heart stopped pounding. Minervra stared at her son. She rose to her feet.

“NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!”

“Please. No. Please. No. Not Charles.” She listened to her baby's pulse. Minnie's sister walked over and took Charles away and covered him with a white blanket. “DON'T TAKE HIM AWAY! HE CANNOT BE GONE!” She yelled falling to the ground once again and hitting it with her fist.

Laughter. Harsh laughter pierced the air. Minervra looked up. A dark skinned woman with harsh black eyes in a dark green cloak stood before her. Minervra shoot up. “You.” she whispered and ran after the fleeing deatheater. Wizards grapped her by the arms to restrain her as the dark woman dissaperated. “YOU KILLED BOTH OF THEM!”


**

Minervra sobbed into her hankerchief that was enscribed with 'To Minnie with love, Arthur xxx'. Five years later, Minnie and Artie's mother went after the deatheater for vengeance. It was Artie's mother who killed her. But she ended up killing herself with guilt. Minervra stared at her ring and stopped crying.

Because of Voldemort had caused her to lose the chance of growing old with Artie.

Her Charles would never kick a ball.

And now he was gone.

And she could finally live again.

She stared at her hankercheif and hugged a picture of Artie, Charles and herself to her chest.
