This chapter is for Rhr4eva's 99 love/pain quotes. I got and used one of my prompts in this chapter.

Prompt: 'There will always be a "lie" in believe, an "over" in lover, an "end" in friend, an "us" in trust, and an "if" in life. I love you.'


A couple days Dara is in Transfiguration holding a snake which she is singing to. She is singing or more like crooning this song twice in Parseltongue and twice regularly so her fellow Slytherin can understand:

Hissy, hissy, little snakey,

Slither on the floor,

You be good to Morfin

Or he'll nail you to the door.

Then she sings the second version:

Hissy, hissy, little snakey,

Slither on the floor,

You be good to Dara

Or she'll nail you to the door.

Harry goes up to her warily.

"Where did you learn that song," asks Harry.

"In a dream," Dara answers simply, as she pets the adder snake possessively.

"Then how did you learn to speak Parseltongue and when did you become a Parseltongue?" asks Harry, getting very annoyed at the girl.

Dara laughed and said, "I won't tell you that, you are so silly Potter."

Harry looks at Dara shocked at her addressing him using his last name.

"Is there a problem," asked both Draco and Blaise, going up to the pair.

"No," mutters Harry, walking back to his seat.

Professor McGonagall walks in and Dara quickly transfigures her snake back into a teacup.

"Now class we will have everyone concentrating," said Professor McGonagall.

Later that day Dara goes over to the Gryffindor table to apologize to Harry.

"I'm sorry Harry," apologized Dara.

Harry looks up at her. "Why are you sorry?"

"I was rude and shouldn't have been speaking Parseltongue in class," said Dara, "that's why I'm sorry."

Harry nods knowing she meant it. Dara then turns to Hermione and Ginny.

"I haven't been ignoring you two on purpose, but maybe you will see me while at Quidditch tryouts," said Dara, half-heartedly.

"Really, you are trying out," asks Ron, worried if their house team will win at all with Dara on the Slytherin House team.

"No, I'm not going to try out, I'm just going to cheer on my brother and Blaise that's all," replies Dara.

They nod and Dara goes back to her own table, where Blaise is probably feeling more nervous than she had ever seen him before. Then she smiles having had a brillant plan she takes out her Felix Felis and pretends to put some in Blaise's drink and gives it to him. Blaise when he drinks it smiles and becomes unnaturally chipper. Later that day Dara goes to meet up with Pansy to study in the library, when she gets 'captured' by the Slytherin Quidditch team. The captain slings her over his shoulder and goes to where they will have their tryouts.

"You have to try out for Seeker," begs the captain. "You are better than Malfoy."

"But I didn't get in when I tried and Draco did, so he is obviously better," comments Dara through her struggle.

Harry walks in to where they are.

"Dara, your dad paid for Draco to be on the team and not you," Harry said. "You want to know why?"

Dara is put down, when she is; she looks at Harry, wanting to know why she wasn't on the team.

"You were better than Draco and your father wanted to have his son have 'some glory', so he can put you in shadow and also so his fragile son's ego didn't get damaged.

Dara looks at him. "You're kidding, aren't you?"

Harry shakes his head and leaves to watch Dara try out. When Dara is ready she can feel the adrenaline pumping through her veins. Her try out went well apparently because a lot of people came to watch the try outs. She was actually very proud of herself for trying though she didn't know if she got in or not. Finally she is able to know the results of the try outs three days later.

Dara was sitting in the Slytherin Common Room when Blaise and Draco walk up to her.

"Congrats," said Blaise, happily, "you are now the substitute Slytherin Seeker."

"Congrats," said Draco, very grumpy.

Dara smiles then realizes that she was only the substitute and not the actual one.

"Who is the other Seeker," she asks, confused.

Draco then smiles. "I am the 'other Seeker'."

Dara rolls her eyes and Blaise goes to give Dara a kiss on the cheek. Dara then becomes considerably happier.

Draco leaves, not able to stomach his sister being kissed by Blaise.

"Jealously, hmm, interesting bugger isn't it," comments Dara as she closes what she was reading.

"Whoa, when did we start talking about jealousy," asks Blaise startled.

"Just now," says Dara, giggling.

Blaise laughs and pulls her into a hug. "There will always be a "lie" in believe, an "over" in lover, an "end" in friend, an "us" in trust, and an "if" in life. I love you."

Dara looks at Blaise not sure what else to say. "I love you, too."

In the corner of the room Draco looks at his sister being wooed by Zabini. Draco did not like when they were like that maybe it was because he was Dara's older brother but still he shouldn't feel so strongly about the subject. Pansy then pokes him.

"What, hmm, huh," says Draco coming back to the earth.

"I was telling about my plans for this weekend," summarizes Pansy, annoyed that Draco wasn't paying attention to her.

"Oh, sorry, go on with what you were saying," said Draco, letting Pansy give him a kiss.

On the other side of the room Dara and Blaise are crooning to each other. How they are crooning is almost inhuman. When she leaves the common room apparently everyone heard because some students who would pass her would clap or whistle in approval. Though she was a Slytherin everyone must have liked her. Hermione and Ginny go up to Dara and congratulate her. Though she would have loved the praise, everyone was forgetting two things one she was going against the other teams, also she was a substitute and she was a Slytherin, wasn't that enough for people to not like her.

"Hermione, why are people clapping for me?" asks Dara, not entirely sure why she had gotten so much popularity.

"You are different and everyone thinks you deserve the position," answered Hermione. "Though you are only a substitute, it doesn't matter."

Dara smiles, knowing that it wasn't her against the world it was not like that.


Well hope you all liked it. This was something I had thought up sometime before and thought it would be cute to write. Till next time keep you wand in check...
