Can I Find Love?

Chapter 1

Depression, a Dream, and Letters

Once again it was summer for Harry Potter who just finished his fifth year at Hogwarts. Harry sat in his little bedroom in Number 4 Pivot Drive. He has been with the Dursleys for two weeks now, and both the family and Harry were trying to avoid each other. He would only go down to eat; which was once a day; go out on a walk. He was blaming himself for the death of his godfather, Sirius Black, who fell through the mysterious veil in Department of Mysteries by his cousin Beletrix Lestrange.

Every third day, Hedwig flew off to the Order with a note from Harry saying he was fine and that the Dursleys were ignoring him. It was like this the last two weeks. Harry has been receiving letters from his friends, Ron and Hermione.

Tonight he saw a small dot in the sky moving around crazy and towards him, then he notice it was pig, Ron's owl. Pig came into his room and flew around the room hyper even after a long flight. Harry caught Pig like a snitch and unties the letters. He looked at the letters and saw they were from Ron and Hermione. He let Pig go and now was flying around the room once then out the window. Harry just sat back against the wall and opens the letters to read them.

Dear Harry,

How are you do' in mate? Hope the muggles are treating you good. If not just send a letter to the order and they will come and kick some muggle butt. Ginny and I have been practicing for quidditch this year. Hope Dumbledore will lift the ban off you, so we can kick some butt. We are at the Burrow right now, and the Order are very busy taking care of things against you-know-who and just like last year they are keeping everything very hush, hush.

I think Dumbledore has finely lost his marbles. Does he always talk like that Harry? Any way Hermione is already here, so with a bit of luck you will be too. Keep in touch with the Order (hush, hush) and us and let us know if you need food or any thing, ok mate. Mum is calling us for dinner so I will talk to you soon.

Ron

p.s.- Please write back. We can't stand it without hearing from you.

Harry just sat there with the letter in his hand and shaking his head.

'It's typical of Ron. Always, thinking of quidditch.' Harry thought.

He just threw the letter on top of his desk and turned towards the other letters. He picked the one from Hermione and opened it and began to read.

Harry,

Hope you're fine? Of course you're not fine. Harry, don't blame your self for what happen. You need to tell someone what happen and you can always come to your friends. Since you already know that I am here at the Burrow from Ron's letter, I guess. Hope Dumbledore will let you come soon. I would like to call you my brother that I never had. Hope to see you soon.

Love from your sis,
Hermione

p.s.-Someone special loves you very much. Hope you will come around and see what's in front of you.

Harry was mad at her letter. How can she tell him to open up and especially her? Something caught his mind.

'What did she mean 'Someone special loves you very much. I hope you will come around and see what's in front of you.'

Setting down the letter on his desk, he turned towards the last letter that was on his bed. He picked it up and notices that it was Ginny's hand writing. He was surprised that she even thought of writing him a letter.

Dear Harry,

I bet you are surprised that I wrote a letter to you. I can see you standing or sitting there in shock. I would've loved to see that. Harry, I know you're not feeling to well, but if you ever need to talk to someone, I will always be here, whenever you need me; during the day or during the night at some ungodly hour.

So, now onto happier thoughts, Ron and Hermione are spending most of their time together going off somewhere or studying, if you know what I mean. Don't tell anyone this, but on some nights Hermione would sneak out when she thought I was asleep and head towards Ron's room, their awful.

I really wish that you here, because it has been boring being by myself. A couple days I went to help the twins with their joke shop, which is doing so good that they are thinking opening a shop in Hogsmeade. Yesterday, mum got the surprise of her life, the twins told her that there was over 500,000 galleons in the family vault! She fainted right on the spot and when she was revived, she gave them both hugs that could've broken their ribs and she apologized to the both of them, saying how wrong she was about the shop, but still didn't like some of their inventions. Got to go, mum's calling us for dinner.

Please remember what I said, I will always be here for you.

Love,
Ginny

Harry laughed at her letter. She always acted normal around him, exceptthe summer before and during his 2nd year. He was quite taken with her shyness during that summer and wish he got to know then. After reading the letters he decided to try and get to sleep. So, he changed into his pajamas and cleared his mind before going to sleep. Forgetting all about the last letter that was address to him. He was hoping for no nightmares tonight. He got his wish, no nightmares came but only one dream came.

The Dream.

Harry looked around taking in his surrounding. He was in a meadow with flowers everywhere, nestled in a valley with a river running through the meadow, but off to the side and surrounded with trees. A nice cool breeze came through the meadow.

Then he heard something. A voice? It sounded like someone singing that was coming from the direction of the river. He followed the voice and what he found there made him stop breathing.

"My heart was swimming
in words gathered by the wind
My voice bounded
into a cloud-carried tomorrow

My heart trembled
in the moon-swayed mirror
Soft tears
spilled with a stream of stars

Isn't it beautiful?
If we could walk, hand in hand,
I'd want to go
to your town, your home, in your arms

I dream of being
against your chest
my body in your keeping
disappearing into the evening

Words halted by wind are
a gentle illusion
A tomorrow torn by clouds is
the voice of a distant place

My heart that had been
in a moon-blurred mirror that flowed
Those stars that trembled and spilled
cannot hide my tears

Isn't it beautiful?
If we could walk, hand in hand,
I'd want to go
to your town, your home, in your arms

My dream of
your face
that I softly touch
melts in the morning"

In front of him was a beautiful girl with red hair and had her back turned to him. She was still singing and all the while standing there not noticing him, but he felt that she knew he was there. Harry was just standing there looking at the girl in front of him, and then all of a sudden the song ended.

She swoops down and gently picks a perfect daisy and started to turn around. Harry was just standing there holding his breathe as she was turning, but his dream had different plans. His dream started to blur when the mysterious girl was about to show herself. Then everything went white and the only thing he heard was his name being called out.

Harry.

Harry woke up when somebody shook him, trying their best to wake him. All he saw was a blurry figure standing beside him and another one right behind the first. He felt someone put glasses on and his vision cleared.

Remus Lupin and Nymphadora Tonks were standing there trying to get him out of bed. She looked like an actual muggle today. She had brown hair and was wearing jeans and a t-shirt that said 'Crazy Girl' on it. Harry raised an eyebrow and smiled.

"What's going on?"

"We're coming to take you where you belong!" Remus said. Harry got up and hugged him, than hugged Tonks. It was so great to see people he actually liked.

"Where's the Dursleys?"

"Wait…don't tell me…Tonks did it again!"

"Yep" she said laughing. "I sent a letter saying that they won free tickets for 5 days to the newest theme park near here."

"Oh, what time is it?"

"7:30" she said brightly.

"WHAT? I could've sleep in for another 2 hours!"

"Come on and get packed. We're leaving." Remus said.

Harry packed as fast as he could. He picked up all of his letters and put them in his trunk. Remus let Hedwig out and told her to meet them at the Burrow. Harry got done packing in about 5 minutes, making sure that he didn't forget anything.

"I'm ready. So, where are we going?"

"You'll see." Remus said grinning like a madman. Tonks brought a portkey out and told him to put a finger on.

"5...4...3...2...1" Then Harry's view of the Dursleys home disappeared for another year.
