Frozen Fire
Disclaimer: Nothing is mine except for Amie, Lizzie, Blake, Belle and Anne.
Amie Potter laid on her bed and stared at the ceiling. She couldn't believe what she had just heard from Dumbledore. Her parents had disappeared again. The last time they had done that they had been found in Canada barely alive. It couldn't possibly be good. Her vivid blue eyes filled with tears as the full impact hit her, what if she never saw her parents again? They could be anywhere right now, if they were anywhere
Her sister Lizzie walked into the room with a huge smile on her face. Amie assumed she had won her quidditch game. Lizzie started to rave on about how great she did and how she caught the snitch at the last moment, but then she noticed the tears rolling down Amie's face and stopped, immediately concerned.
"What's wrong?" Lizzie asked sitting down on Amie's bed.
"It's mom and dad…" Amie sobbed.
"What happened?!" Lizzie's bright green eyes showed her worry.
"They're gone again!" Amie took a deep breath and tried to calm down.
"Oh no," Lizzie whispered standing up.
Just then the door opened and Lizzie's two friends walked in chatting about some cute guy in Ravenclaw. When they noticed Amie sobbing into her pillow and Lizzie standing next to Amie's bed with her face all twisted up to keep from crying herself they stopped giggling and ran over to Lizzie.
"What is it Lizzie??" One of them asked.
While Lizzie tried to explain Amie took a deep breath and stopped crying. Maybe they were fine, maybe she was just overreacting. She sat up and wiped her eyes trying to regain her composure. She knew that dinner would start soon but didn't feel like eating.
"Amie, are you going to come with us to eat?" said Belle.
Amie shook her head, all she wanted to do right now was sleep so she could get the horrible thoughts about what could have happened to her parents out of her head. The other girls walked out of the room and Amie could hear them consoling Lizzie until the dorm door slammed behind them. As soon as Amie figured that everyone had left the common room she went out of her dorm and into the Gryffindor common room. She sat down on the velvet couch and stared into the fire. Slowly her eyelids drooped and she drifted off to sleep.

Blake sat down at the table and before he knew it he was surrounded by three other fifth years, and like usual they were girls. Lizzie, Belle, and Anne at that, Blake knew that Lizzie liked him, well, the whole school knew that Lizzie liked him. But for some strange reason he just didn't feel the same about her. Blake would never admit it but he really preferred her quiet, polite sister to loud and outgoing Lizzie. He noticed that Amie wasn't with them like normal.
"Hey," Blake said. "Where's Amie? Is she sick?"
"She just wasn't hungry." said Belle looking from Lizzie, who was staring at her place, her face expressionless, back to Blake obviously trying to get him to say something to Lizzie.
"Lizzie, great game tonight." Blake put on an artificial tone of happiness to hide his disappointment that Amie was back in the dorm.
Lizzie just nodded and continued to stare at her food, which was very unlike her because usually she would freak out every time Blake said something nice to her.
"Aren't you going to ask what's wrong?" Whispered Belle in her annoying suggestive whisper.
"No," Blake looked up at Belle his gray-blue eyes meeting her jumpy brown ones. "I'm not," and with that he got up from the table suddenly having lost his appetite.

Amie was having the most wonderful dream about her crush when she heard a soft voice behind her.
"Amie? Are you asleep?"
Amie's eyelids fluttered open and she found herself looking into Blake's eyes. Amie covered her face with the blanket as she felt her cheeks burn. Then she realized how stupid she must look to Blake.
"Okay sorry," mumbled Blake sounding crestfallen.
Amie poked her head out from under the blanket and saw Blake walking toward his dorm and realized that he was alone.
"Shouldn't you be eating dinner?" she asked. He turned back around and Amie blushed again.
"Well...yeah," he said starting to blush himself. "But I didn't see you at the table and I just wanted to...uh..."
"You skipped dinner to check on me?"
"I guess so..." Blakes face was bright red.
"Thanks, that's really...nice of you." Amie wanted to say sweet but didn't want Blake to think she liked him.
Then Amie remembered about her parents and her sadness hit her like a wave. It must have shown on her face because Blake said,
"Amie, is something wrong? Because you can tell me, I mean I won't tell."
Amie looked into Blake's soft eyes and let out a sigh. Without even thinking she told Blake everything. She poured out her heart telling him about when she was only seven and how her parents had disappeared for almost half a year, how they had been attacked by a dark wizard going by Lord Voldemorts name, even thought the real Lord Voldemort was dead. About how the dark wizard had robbed her mother of her memory and it had taken two years to find the counterspell.
Then she told him that her parents had disappeared again and she started to cry. Amie turned her face away from Blake so he wouldn't see her tears. After a moment she felt Blake put his arms around her and hug her Amie turned around her and hug her. Amie turned around and put her head on his shoulder and stopped crying. Amie didn't realize that Lizzie was in the room until she heard her.
"Amie?" said Lizzie in a shaky voice.
Amie lifted up her head and and looked at Lizzie, Belle, and Anne. Lizzie's green eyes burned with fury and her hands were clenched into fists.
"What are you doing?" asked Lizzie trying to keep her voice calm.
Amie looked at Blake but he was staring at the ground. She looked back at Lizzie but before she could say anything Lizzie burst into tears.
"How could you?" she sobbed as she ran into the girls dorms.
Belle walked over to the couch and gave Amie a dirty look and then said,
"What were you thinking? You knew he was Lizzie's. Your own sister Amie!" Then she raced after Lizzie.
"I'm not anyone's!" Blake yelled after her.
Amie looked up and saw Anne still standing there looking torn.
"Amie, I..." she looked ready to cry herself.
"It's okay Anne," Amie sighed.
Anne started to walk towards the dorms and then turned giving them a look of pity then went through the door leaving Amie and Blake in silence.
