Professor Longbottom had been treating me differently ever since that night in the common room. I guess he feels bad for me or something...I don't really care ,as long as he stays out of my business.

This whole week has been passing by so slowly and I have been ignoring everyone except for Dan. I'm pretty sure Liz is really pissed but honestly I don't care.

Finally its saturday... I woke up and walked to the girl's bathroom. I started the bath and added some bubbles.

I stepped in the warm water and sighed. Finally...Relaxation.

After about an hour of sitting there and thinking i got out and dried myself off. I blow dried my hair and put on some mascara and lipgloss.

I put on white jeans and a plain black shirt, along with black converse.

I messed with my hair a bit before leaving the bathroom and walking back to the Gryffindor common room.

And guess who was there? No not Professor Longbottom...Lizzy looking at me like she wanted to kill me.

"Scarlett, why the hell have you been ignoring me?!" she yelled. Everyone in the common room looked at her and then me.

I walked towards here and whispered," Don't make a scene...Lets just go talk in our ?"

She nodded and walked towards the dormitories.

I sat on my bed and she sat next to me. "Please tell me whats been going on..." she started. "I can't" I said simply.

"And why not?" she demanded. "You won't understand...and I promised I wouldn't tell anyone."

"Who did you promise?"

"I can't say..."

"We're Best Friends...Why are you keeping secrets from me?"

"Who said we were best friends?" I asked looking her dead in the eye.

She looked hurt and tears started to form in her eyes. "What the hell has happened to you?" She go up from my bed and ran off.

I looked at my feet and sighed. What is happening to me?

I looked at my clock and got up. Time to see Michael. I grabbed some floo powder (Dan has supplied me with a sufficient amount...gotta love him.)

I scanned the room for anyone. And hear the door creek open. I quickly threw the powder on the ground and yelled Diagon Alley.

I arrived in the dark streets and pulled out my wand. "Lumos" I said quietly.

"Scarlett?" I heard Michael call. I smiled and walked towards his voice for the second time this week.

"Hey" he said sounding a bit nervous. "Is something wrong?" I asked.

"The ministry is becoming suspicious... along with many others. They are finding clues of my existence and I have heard they are searching for me. They still aren't positive, but they are having hunches."

"Oh no... Listen Michael, If you need any help hiding, please come to me."

He nodded and looked down. I heard a sound and turned around. "Did you hear that?" I asked. "No" he replied still sounding nervous.

"Can I ask you another question.."

"Sure."

"How did you react to Volde- I mean your fathers death?"

"I was happy...and I feel bad for some odd reason. I mean he was my father, but he was a horrid man...He deserved it."

I nodded and heard someone gasp.

I turned around and saw Neville standing there with his wand drawn. "You are real" he said angrily to Michael,"I heard rumors, but I didn't believe it."

"Neville NO!" I yelled standing in front of Michael protectively.

"Scarlett, step away from him" Neville demanded.

"Neville, you don't understand! HE ISN'T LIKE HIM!" I yelled.

"Yeah right. Now for the last time, Scarlett, MOVE!"

I pulled out my wand and yelled stupefy.

Neville flew backwards and I grabbed Michael's hand. "Let's go."

We ran towards Knockturn Alley and kept running until we couldn't anymore.

"I think...We've lost him" I panted.

"No, you haven't" Neville said from behind us.

I turned around and pulled out my wand. "Stupefy" he yelled pointing his wand towards me.

After that everything went black...

***
I woke up and someone was carrying me. It was Neville.

"What happened..." I said. He looked down at me and ignored my question.

Michael...

"What did you do to him?!" I demanded hitting his chest. He grip on me tightened. "Your precious Michael got away"he said through his teeth.

I sighed in relief and noticed how angry Neville looked.

"What I want to understand is why the HELL you would trust him" he demanded.

"Its hard to explain, but I just do. He isn't like his father...or mother."

"No he isn't. He is just tricking you. He will get you on his side by convincing you that he is different. You will help hide him from all who want to harm him and then he will turn on you..."

"He isn't like that!" I yelled.

"Bullshit..." Neville mumbled.

No wanting to fight anymore and feeling a bit exhausted I wrapped my arms around Neville's neck and rested my head on his chest.

I quickly drifted off to sleep.

I awoke in my bed and remember the events that had just occurred. It was still dark out and Neville was sitting on the edge on my bed with his face in his hands.

I can't blame him...Honestly this must be hard for him...Realizing Voldemort has a son...I would be angry and confused if I were in his place. After all he has been through.

I started to feel guilty. I sat up and put my hand on his back. He looked up at me and smiled weakly.

"Neville I understand that this is a hard thing to grasp...but will you give me a chance to prove to you that he is different..." I whispered not wanting to wake up all the girls sleeping.

"Fine...It won't be easy, but fine."

He stood up and so did I . He wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me into a warm hug. I wrapped my arms around his neck.

We stayed like this for awhile and I completely understood why. Dark memories were coming back to him and it was my fault.

But I didn't quite understand what he did next...

He pulled back and gently pressed his lips to mine.

And the craziest part was that I kissed back.

Woah man...WHATS GONNA HAPPEN?! OHHH SHITTTTTTTTTTTTT hahaha i love writing this even tho like nobody reads it... ~Rose xx
