Sorry for the short chapter but it does jump start the plot of the story alittle more. I hope you like it :D please review.
Chapter 10
"I see you"
The tension in the house has gone down since my mother arrived. It's been about a week and a half since she came. I've been practicing magic the entire time. So I'm a little more advanced since I was before.
The tension in my heart is growing though. There is a full moon tonight and ever since I found out about the curse I've been a little afraid of the idea of full moons. It's dinner time right now. My mother and myself sat at the end of the Weasley table. The only Weasleys that weren't there were Percy and Charlie. I sat between George and my mother. Fred sat across from me and made kissy faces at George and myself. So I threw a chicken leg at him for the fun of it.
After dinner I was with Ginny and Fleur outside as we took a walk. The sun was starting to set and that made me tense up. We walked through the paths o the fields. I watched the sun as it set.
"Why are you so tense?" asked Ginny.
"It's a full moon tonight, what do you think?" The two girls gave me a look in concern.
"You'll be fine dear." said Fleur.
"I hope so." We made it back to the house around eight and the sun was barely a gleam on the horizon and I could see the moon starting to rise. I sat in the attic watching as the sun soon vanished and the moon started to rise. George came to join me. He wrapped one arm around me and pulled me closer to him and he kissed my head.
"You'll be fine Gracie." he said. So sure of himself.
"For all I know nothing will happen tonight. But what if it does? The wolves have more power under a full moon. What makes you think John wont lurk his ugly head in this direction?" I asked.
"Even if he does lurk his wooly wolf head in this direction. We'll be ready for him. Either way you'll be fine."
"I wish I was as optimistic as you." I leaned in and kissed his lips.
"Everyone wishes they were me, even Fred." That did make me laugh. But I did give him a hit to the head for that arrogant moment. We kissed again and he wrapped me I his arms.
"You'll be fine love. I'll always be here for you." I wish I had his hope. If being here for me gets him hurt, maybe I don't want him here.
"I don't want you to get hurt George."
"I wont, trust me." He sounded so sure of himself. We went back downstairs around nine. All of us just hung outside or downstairs. It was at eleven o' clock that my mother started to act weird. She watched out the window. I could feel the fear in her veins. The full moons light streamed through the window. I was about to head upstairs until I felt this chill down my spine.
"I see you." I heard this cold voice. I looked around and no one heard the voice because no one acted any different.
"Hello sweetheart, I see you." I fell to my knees in tears. The windows blew open around me and I could hear dog howling outside.
"NO! Not here!" I yelled. George was at my side with Fred and they stood me up. Mr. and Mrs. Weasley were downstairs in a heart beat along with Ron. Bill, Mr. Weasley, Fred, and Ron followed my mom out the door and George, Fleur, Ginny and Mrs. Weasley stayed with me. We just stood in the doorway. I saw a dark figure walking toward the house and two over grown wolves beside him. It was John.
John was a hansom man, but I was still filled with fear. He was tall, scruffy blond hair. His body was very strong looking. He was wearing a long black robe with gold branches sown on it. He walked towards us and smiled. He had a nice smiled but I still flet this cold fear surfing up and won my spine.
"Well, Rowan, long time to see. Is that little Gracie hiding back there? My she had grown, I would have hardly recognized her." He laughed. I was then pushed to the back of the group. Everyone got their wands out.
"Leave now John!" yelled my mother.
"Huh, and who's going to make me? You? Well to tell you the truth I haven't come for her, yet." Yet?
"What do you mean John?" asked my mother.
"This just isn't the time yet. I just came to see Gracie after all this time, and to bestow a warning. Anyone who gets in my way for what I want will die." his tone changed. he was a lot more serious. Our eyes met for a second. I could see they were as dark as his heart. He smiled at me.
"See you soon Gracie." He smiled and vanished, along with the wolves he was with. Then I started to feel this sharp pain in my head. It started to spread through out my body as I collapsed into Georges arms. It started to become harder and harder to breathe. Next thing I knew, it all went black.
Ya! I love cliff hangers!
