Minerva slowly stopped rocking, but she couldn't stop crying she was to far gone in her tears and hatred for herself. Why was she wanting something that was not hers and was one of her closest friends. She looked over to Justin. Then there was Justin she loved him so much as family. As a brother and she went and screwed up their friendship. Why was she such poison for all her friends. "I'm sorry.. I'm so sorry.. I will make it right some how. I will talk to the girls if you want. I will say it's all my fault I did the kissing you two did nothing."

Harvey held onto her as she stopped rocking but continued to cry.. then she said something Harvey did not expect... she was going to tell them??!! No way!! He pulled away from her and looked at her "No one will mention the kissing to anyone! It did NOT happen! You will get on with your life as if nothing happened! do you understand?! Mins this way is best for you.." he said as wiped her face with his jumper as she continued to cry.. he then hugged her again and held her..

Minerva looked at him shocked. "Not tell them, but.. but isn't that lying and hiding. Shouldn't you be truthful with the people you love?" Minerva was confused in a different way now. Yes hiding it would help it would make everything for them, but could she hold that kind of guilt in knowing.

'I know, it's just my luck.' Rose sighed, watching as Ronnie enjoyed her bean. Soap? Awesome! She took another one, that was brown and chewed it. 'Toffee!' she beamed, happy to have got a normal flavour.

IT WAS JORDAN, THE BEST GRYFFINDOR GUY FRIEND, SHE THINKS, OF HERS!
'JORDAN!' Rose beamed, hugging him. What, she hadn't seen him since the feast, and even THAT had been short!

Harvey looked at her and nodded "We could tell them but then imagine what mess would be created. But if you think you cant hide that sort information then we will have to think about telling them.. but we know what will happen if we do.." he looked at Justin... he would probably lose Ame and Harvey would lose Ronnie.. two girls hurt by the guys they loved the most.. he then looked at Minnie.. could she live knowing that she hurt two of her friends ... Ame and Ronnie..

Salima stood up and took her bag then walked out of the compartment towards the middle of the train.

Minnie looked between Justin and Harvey. Justin wasn't saying anything. What was he thinking? Did he want to hide this as well. She thought of the two girls, her friends, her great friends and then she looked at her best friends. All four would be hurt. She was getting use to feeling pain and feeling hurt. She sat up straighter and wiped her eyes. "Fine it would be best not saying anything. My lips" looking at Harvey then to Justin "are sealed."

Lilly smiled back. 'Hello. I've just met a Slytherin. Paticular git. Laughed at me. But, do I care?'

'Not all Slytherins are gits...' Rose said dreamily, thinking about Mordred. And Ashley for Violet. Nope, not all were.

Harvey waited to see what she said.. would she be able to do this and avoid hurting the girls? she then sat up straighter and wiped her eyes. Harvey nodded as she agreed "Good.. it IS best especially for Justin... he loves Ame too much and she him.. they cant lose each other.. thank you Minnie for agreeing to this tough job of keeping this quiet." he said as he hugged her again.. a fairly long hug "You are great and amazing" he whispered as he hugged her.. he then let go.. and kneeled down in front of her... not taking his eyes off of her..

'I didn't say they all were. But most of them,' she smiled. Her sister was probably thinking of Ashley. Or that Mordred dude...
'Are we nearly there? I'm bored of sitting with second-years.'

'Naw, just select few are gits.' Not most... Ugh, she needed to get him off of her mind, it was obvious he'd never go for a mudblood.
'Feel free to leave, but I don't think we're nearly there yet...' Rose sighed, shaking her head.

Justin had been listening and watching as Harvey was ble to calm her down somewhat. At least she was talking again. " Min, Don't worry so much. I'll explain everything to Ame. She'll understand it all and if anyone is to take the heat for it It'll be me. I'm the one that needs to man up and deal with whole thing. I'll leave you two to your business from now on and deal with mine head on. I've got to figure out this wand thing and then i'll be able to breathe again. " Justin explained. He didn't want her blaming herself for his problems with Ame. That was his own doing and he knew that.

'I still don't agree. A select few that aren't, maybe,' Lilly grinned.
'Aww. Well, nowhere else to go, have I?'

'No, I know a lot of nice Slytherins, I only know... Well, I know no nasty ones.' Rose replied, thinking about it. Wow, that was surprising.
'Aw, well, just go introduce yourself to people!' Rose said tiredly.

Minerva just listened not really looking at either of them. Then Harvey hugged her she stiffened her body with that hug and when he knelt down she put her hand up. "Give me a minute" Minerva wiped her eyes and turned her head looking at her reflection in the mirror. You are a horrible person Minerva Wheatborn. You ruin your friends lives. All the emotions, anger, fear, hatred came back to her from the castle. How she could have gotten all her friends expelled because of her stupidity and this is how she repaid them. Your will never be good enough for them. Something click she knew what she would have to do. Lie, lie to all the ones she loved just to protect all of them. She had to push herself away and break from the group. That would be best for everyone. She turned her head slowly back to the boys, not just any boys her best friends. They will be fine they have loves she gave her best smile, your going to have to do better then that Min if your going to pull this off. "We will be fine. Justin don't tell Ame anything she doesn't need to know. Nothing happened and that is what I will say if anyone asks. Now you two have girlfriends you should be with not me."

Harvey moved back a bit as she needed some space to pull herself together.. Harvey was shocked to hear that Justin wanted to tell Ame everything and was about to tell him not do it when Minnie did it for him.. She then told them to go be with their girlfriends, Harvey smiled cheekily "What and miss this drama? no way!" he said chuckling.. "No Mins I want to be with you as after this who knows when I will be able to see you again.. I wll being seeing Ronnie often over the holidays but not you.. so I think I will stay with you for a little while longer.. but if Justin wants to go he can go.. I am here." he said as he knelt down and looked at Justin before looking back at Minnie he watched her to make sure she was ok..

Minerva looked straight through Harvey not making eye contact was going to be the only way. "Harvey I am fine." She gave a slight grin not a normal Min grin, but a colder harsher grin. She took her hair out of the pony tail and fluffed her hair then crossed her legs placing her arms across her front. "Everything will be fine. You two will go kiss your girls and say you love them. If they come to me I will tell them nothing happened, but spending all this time with me is going to hurt your relationships, don't you think?"

'Wow! Seriously?' Lilly looked shocked.
'Better than nothing, I s'pose,' she sighed, smiling at the second years (not Rose,) and walking out of the compartment.

" No, I'm not leave you like this. Besides , Ame refuses to speak with me because of the whole thing with Ronnie." Justin couldn't tell Minerva about Amethyst seeing him kiss her through the door's window of the food compartment. she could never know, if she did find out Minnie would break away from him for sure. He had to keep that bit to himself. " Besides, I'll have the whole summer with Ame. i think she would appreciate having a little time to cool down. " Justin said with a half hearted smile.
" Not goin' anywhere , Mate. I'm stickin' around for the both of you. "

Rose nodded, thinking of all the Slytherins she knew. They were all incredibly nice!
Okay, her sister must have PMS or something... *sighs*

Harvey listened to what she said and shook his head.. "It wont hurt if we stay for a little while.. this may be then last we get to hang out.. just us 3.." he said not looking at Justin.. he really meant himself.. he wanted to hang out with her as much as he could while she was here. once she is gone.. he will miss her.. so best to gather some good memories while she is here and remember them when she isnt.. "I agree with Justin.. we aint going anywhere.. lets spend some time just us 3.." he said to her smiling..

Minerva looked a little annoyed that they were staying she quickly shook that off. Play it cool Min it's the only way to protect them. "Well if you want to stay then stay, but we are going to put some rules into our friendship. No more hugging, KISSING" she eyed both of them. "I will not be sitting next to either of you especially when your girls are around. Do I make myself clear?"

Aimée laughed a little, shaking her head. "Maybe," she said, not denying the fact because he knew it was true although she was pretty sure he'd still be her best student if she had lots of them. "Perhaps I should teach ozers. Maybe I could even charge zem for eet." She laughed at the preposterous thought, the idea that people would want lessons from her was absurd, let alone paying for such lessons. Although the money would come in handy when she left school. Hm.

"'Ey, I just meant zat you zree... well, you're not exactly golden people, are you?" The blonde blushed again, but was glad he laughed; at least that didn't mean that he was going to make the whole thing depressing. "Well that's go-" Aimée stopped midspeach: it was good that he was planning on staying alived, but what he'd added had startled her.

"D-d-dating me?" Gulp.

Jack was NOT looking forward to going home. Not. At. All. He was going to miss Hogwarts like mad, and everything with it. The books, the classes... Amy. He flushed slightly, as he sat alone in the compartment. He wasn't sure where she was, probably with Sammy or Everett, but he didn't mind. He drummmed his fingers on his book, and he picked a Chocolate Frog out of his pocket. He knew his mother was going to kill him when he got home, especially because he had just ran off that last time he saw her. That was the first time he met Amy. The scar was practically gone, but you could feel the slight ridge if you touched his cheek. He wasn't really scared of his mother now though, but he had a looong Summer ahead. As in, being locked in his room from midnight the six in the morning, and working in their bloody crap cafe in the middle of nowhere in Galway, and serve people cold coffee and stale sandwiches. Great. At least he had Hogwarts to cling on to this time.
