Author's Note:

This one gets a little serious, but I hope you enjoy it! Originally, Rose had a normal mobile phone, but my friend pointed out that it wouldn't work inside Hogwarts so i had to change it. Hope it's not too unbelievable! Also, with this story, the point of view will change a lot. Probably almost every chapter.

James's Pov:

I watched them running up to the castle in silence. As Jade opened the door into the school, she turned back and blew a kiss at me. Urgh. She seriously needs to get her head around the fact that I would rather die than date her! Even the thought of us as a couple made me want to be sick. I turned back to Rose, but she was gone.

"Rose?" I called quietly. There was no reply. I looked up the path back to the castle, but she wasn't there. "Rose?" My voice sounded more urgent now. I stopped for a moment and thought. Just about Rose. Where would she be?

The answer came to me in an instant.

The Lake.

"ROSE!" I yelled and sprinted towards the lake. It was further away than it had looked back at the tree and by the time I got the edge I was out of breath. But I couldn't stop because I could see her standing alone on rock high above the water's surface

"Rose?" I said softly. I was metres away from her now, and I stopped moving towards her. She didn't even turn to look at me as she removed her shoes. I could hear her sobbing quietly and sniffing. "Rose. Come on, Rose. Ignore Albus, he's probably just high or drunk or some crap like that. I'd go and beat the shit out of him right now if I wasn't so worried about you." She was still watching the water, but she replied.

"Why, James? Why do you care? Nobody else does! I'm just you're cousin." She said fiercely.

"Rose, you're more than that. You're... Well I don't know... But you're something to me. Something more." I didn't know why I was saying this. I had never felt anything romantic towards Rose. She was great, yes, but she was my cousin.

"I can't take it anymore James. I won't take it anymore! Not their laughs! Not their sneers! Especially not their whispers! I won't!" She yelled, and I felt as though she wasn't talking to me, but yelling at the world. Letting them know that she would no longer take any crap. "I'm done living in my parent's shadow. My mum, who beat every academic record in the history of Hogwarts. Dad, who helped bring down The Dark Lord. I'm not their child! I'm me! Rose Weasley! Aren't you tired of it James? People making assumptions? Judging you? I know I am." I'll always remember the last thing she said before she jumped.

She launched herself into the deep water known for its cruel currents. I watched as she plunged into the freezing dark lake. I was so stunned that I think my mind shut down for a couple of seconds. I simply stood there, waiting for her to resurface. Then a thought crept into my head- what if she wasn't planning on coming back up.

I didn't think, I just yanked my shirt off and jumped. As my body went crashing into the water, I was aware of my skin going numb and senseless with the cold. I opened my eyes enough to see Rose's red hair shimmering beneath me. I swam up to the surface and took a huge breath before going back under.

My arms made quick panicked strokes as I went further and further down, my hands grabbing blindly at the water, hoping to find Rose. Just when I knew I was running out of air, my hand got caught in a tangled mess that could only be Rose's hair. I then found her waist and hauled her to the surface. Just before we got back up, I felt something wrap around my leg. I looked down and saw a Grindylow wrapped around it, refusing to let me go. For a second I paused, but then the image of Hugo appeared in front of me. I looked up at Rose, who meant so much not only to me, but my entire family. With the last bit of my strength, I pushed her to the surface and kicked at the Grindylow. It scratched at my ankles and cut deep into my skin, but I gritted my teeth and carried on fighting. Finally, after what seemed like hours it gave up and let go. I made my way to the surface and found Rose floating in the water. It must have only been minutes since she had jumped. I put one arm around her waist and heaved her unconscious body back to the rocks.

"Come one Rose! Breath, god dammit!" I muttered as I lay her down on the rocks. I checked her pulse, but it was non-existent. I groaned, frustrated, and tried to think of what to do next. CPR seemed to be the only logical thing that could save her. It was a good ten minute walk to the Hospital Wing and carrying Rose would only make it longer. I tried giving her CPR, but it didn't work. She was dying in front of me and I couldn't do anything! "Please Rose, you can do this! I know you can! Just hold on, I'm going to save you." I promised her even though I knew she couldn't hear me. I found her bag and rummaged through it. At the bottom I found her phone. My Granddad had invented a load that would work inside Hogwarts so we could always be contacted. I grabbed it and scrolled through her contacts. Finally I found someone I knew I could talk to. I dialled the number.

"Hello?" A disgruntled voice greeted me from the other end.

"Freddie? Is that you?" I hurriedly asked, looking at Rose's face as it turned from a pale white to a fading blue.

"James? Yeah, it's me. Why the hell are you ringing me?"

"No time to explain. You need to get McGonagall now! I'm serious! Ask Dominique to wake Madam Pomfrey. I think we're going to need her."

"James, what's going on?" Freddie sounded worried, and as much as I wanted to tell him, Rose's life was slipping away with every second and there was no time.

"Just meet me by the Lake with McGonagall. By the rocks." I hung up and hoped helplessly that Freddie would do what I told him. I grabbed hold of Rose's hand and squeezed it.

"I'm still here Rose." I whispered to her and waited.

So what did you think? I know it was kind of fast for a second chapter to have a suicide in it, but the point is that Rose has dealt with it for a long time.

Please review! It means my next chapters can be even better!
