A/N: This is my first try at 'drabbles'. Each will be about someone left at Hogwarts while Harry goes off gallivanting! They will all have at least teeny bit of romance in them, because I'm a romance sucker! The names will be revealed at the end of each chapter. Try and guess before it ends!

Warning: I have never written these things before! I cannot guarantee they will be any good, even if it's just the style that ruins it all! xD Please, please give me feedback!

I. Sleep

He looks around at them all, in the hammocks, sleeping. Peaceful? No.

He looks at her. Her hair is spread over her pillow like milk splattered across a countertop. She smiles in her sleep.

But then again, that's like her, isn't it?

He wishes he could live in the world that she does.

The imaginary, happy-go-lucky world.

He wishes he could have the self-confidence she radiates.

But he must stop wishing. He must ignore the aches and pains he has. He must forget his scars.

He must sleep, too.
