"Schools over tomorrow." I said, feeling my stomach drop. Tom looked at me knowingly and kissed the top of my head.

"We'll owl daily." Tom said, "And we can get together a few times."

I nodded, but didn't really feel any better. An entire summer away from Tom. Who knows what he would do-

"Tom." I said quietly, just before we fell asleep. "Please, promise me you wont do anything this summer. Nothing- well don't. Please?"

Tom was silent for a moment, then nodded. "I promise."

I sighed, then rested back against him. "Will I see you tomorrow?"

Tom started kissing my neck. "No. I have to patrol the train."

I turned around. "Then I guess we have to make the most of this now."

The next morning we climbed onto the train. Right before we had to go our separate ways, Tom pulled me against him, kissing me again. "Okay. This is it."

I sighed. "Owl me as soon as you can."

Tom nodded, then kissed me again. "Alright. And I wont forget my promise."

I bit my lip, then slowly let him go. "Bye." He turned and walked away. As soon as he was out of hearing, I dared to whisper, "I love you."

My summer was like all of my others- beside the fact that I missed Tom more that ever and every time I thought of him I had a pain shoot through my body. And we did owl, but he didn't keep up his promise that we would get together. At all.

Now, finally, it was time to go back to Hogwarts. And, to make it even better, it was Tom and my one year anniversary.

I walked onto the platform then the train. Tom wasn't there. I sat down and waited. He didn't come. Then, halfway through the train ride, he ran in. "Alexa!" he grabbed me and kissed me roughly. "Merlin I missed you."

I looked at him in shock. Tom thought emotions were for the weak. He must have really missed me...

"Hey." I smiled, kissed him again. "Where have you been?"

Tom smirked and rolled his eyes. "Head boy."

I smiled brightly. "Why didn't you tell me?"

Tom shrugged, then kissed me once again. "By the way, happy anniversary."

I kissed him. "I know you don't want me too, but I love you."

Tom frowned, but kissed me. "I told you, you really should stay away from me."

I kissed him back. "Too late."
