Telling the truth

7th year. Voldamort's defeated. Severus, Remus, Tonks, and Fred are not dead. Once the school got reopened everyone in the school took there year over again from the battle. Draco and Harry have had a truce.

Harry was in the hall and once again Damonic had had him in an embrace.

"Damonic you've already said thank you a billion times." Harry said.

"I know. I already told you that there was no way I could thank you enough." Damonic said not letting go.

Harry had saved Severus's life from Nigini's attack. Damonic was so thankful.

"Damonic please let go of me." Harry said.

"Okay." Damonic said. "So how was your first week back?"

"Fine, thank you."

"Mom's pretty upset about the news in the daily prophet." They started walking down the hall.

"Why what did it say?"

"Belatrix is going to prison."

"That's a good thing right?"

"Well I believe so, but mom hates her and is so upset that she almost killed Remus and Tonks. If she hadn't been to worried about them, she would have killed her then and there. She sometimes wishes she had."

"Yeah, there lucky to have Cloey at there side."

Harry remembered how Cloey was in the mix of helping Harry doge attacks from death Eaters as he headed for Voldamort. When she disappeared. Later Remus had told Harry how she saved them.

'Tonks and I were holding off Goyle with are own teamwork when we blasted him way. That's when Belatrix appeared with the killing curse, like what had happened to Sirius. Cloey appeared in front of us with wings high in the air.

'You okay?' She asked.

'Were fine Cloey thank you.' Tonks said.

'Get away from my daughter.' Mrs. Weasley said.

Cloey turned toward Mrs. Weasley who was heading for Belatrix. Ginny was on the ground, but getting up.

'You sure you guys are okay?' Cloey asked.

'Were fine.' I said.

'I'm sorry. I was watching and Goyle was giving you a rough time and then I seen Belatrix coming. If Mrs. Weasley didn't come I would have killed her for even attempting it…on my parents.' Cloey said.

Tonks and Remus smiled.

After that Cloey has been acting different.

"I'm worried." Damonic said.

"About what?" Harry asked.

"Mom getting herself in to trouble."

"That's not like Cloey."

"I know, but she is going to go to the ministry and protest that Belatrix should be put to death. Harry if they don't agree she'll kill her."

"That's no more that she deserves."

"True, but it would be totally agenst the law."

"When has your mother ever gone with the law?"

"Your right she's the special one. I don't know why I'm so worried. She can handle herself."

"Let's hope so."

They reached the great hall and went there separate ways.

Harry sat down with Neville, Hermine, Ron, and Seamus.

"Did Damonic give you a hug and thank you again?" Ron asked.

"Yeah." Harry said.

"Man what is with him?" Seamus asked.

"He's just grateful. Snape is like father figure to him." Hermine said.

"Yeah, but every time he sees Harry he give him a hug and says thank you." Ron said.

"What's the big deal?" Hermine asked.

"Did Cloey give you her thank you?" Neville asked.

"Yes. It was worse." Harry said.

"What as it?" Seamus asked.

Harry went red.

"What?" Seamus asked.

"She kissed him." Ron said sniggering.

"She did?" Neville asked.

"Yeah, she was so grateful." Hermine said.

"You're telling me." Seamus said.

"How was it?" Neville asked.

"I don't know there was just something that wasn't right." Harry said.

Hermine whispered something in Ron's ear.

"What?" Ron asked.

Hermine nodded.

"No." Ron said. "Harry?"

"Yes, Ron." Hermine said.

"What?" Harry asked.

"Come on mate it is a bit obvious." Ron said.

"What?" Harry asked getting annoyed.

"Even Neville knows." Ron said.

"Come on guys tell me." Harry demeaned.

"Well, your gay." Hermine said.

"What? No I'm not." Harry said.

"Come on Harry when have you really liked a girl?" Neville asked.

"There's Cho." Harry said.

"Yes, and looked where that ended up." Ron said.

"And remember your comment on the kiss?" Hermine asked.

"What about it?" Harry asked.

"You said it was wet. That's not normal mate." Ron said.

Harry thought that made sense by the fact that he wasn't exactly interested in girls, but was he interested in boys.

"I don't know." Harry said.

Up at the head table, Cloey was sitting between Severus and Tonks. Remus was sitting on the left side of Dumbledore as McGonagall sat on his right.

"Severus when are you going to tell him?" Cloey asked.

"Never." Severus said.

"Come on Severus, you can't keep doing this to yourself." Cloey said.

"Leave me alone." Severus said.

"Oh don't be a baby Severus. What good will it do if you don't tell him?" Tonks asked.

"He wont know." Severus said.

"And what would be so bad about him knowing. Then you would get to know how he feels." Cloey said.

"I don't want to know how he feels." Severus said.

Tonks and Cloey shared a looked before shaking their heads.

Cloey muttered 'men'

"Well if I'm so bad why don't you tell Draco you secret?" Severus asked.

"Because I can't do it." Cloey said.

"And how do you think I feel." Severus said.

"Hey, well at least I try." Cloey said.

"Here we go again. Look Cloey's right Severus try getting along with him and see what happened." Tonks said.

"No." Severus said.

"Severus." Cloey groaned. "How can you be that way with how you feel about him?"

"I've been doing it for seven years. One more isn't going to hurt." Severus said.

"You've been in love with him for seven years?" Cloey asked shocked.

And how come I wasn't informed about this? Cloey thought.

"No. It was in the fifth year when I found out my true feelings for the boy." Severus said.

"Why did you not tell me?" Cloey asked.

"Because I didn't want you to…" Severus trailed off.

"Didn't want me to do what?" Cloey asked.

"What you've been doing." Severus said.

"But I'm just trying to help."

"Yeah by telling the whole world."

"All I've told was mom."

"Then stop lecturing me."

"But you're making a mistake."

"Yeah well what's knew."

"Severus." Cloey wined. "Well you should at least be more nicer to him."

"No."

"Well you leave me no choice."

"What are you going to do?"

"Ignore you."

"Yeah like that's going to work."

Cloey didn't respond.

Tonks smiled.

"Cloey isn't that a bit childish?" Tonks asked.

"I've tried to avoid it, but it's time for him to learn what he has to do." Cloey said.

"This going to effect your potions, isn't it?" Tonks asked.

"Probably." Cloey said.
