I'm in the process in creating a small series of videos on youtube about tips. If you have any, tell me in the comments or email me; my email is on my home page where you see all my stories and info and such. My youtube account is also on my homepage. :D

There might or might not be one more chapter, depending on how busy I get this next week. I have written a couple chapters that just have to be edited. I have to start writting more, which I can't wait to do again! ^.^
I just got back from being on the beach for a week! It was really great, I had a blast! If anyone wants to see pictures/videos just check out my youtube video. I just have to find my camera first in our mess of luggage before I post anything... lol =D

Keep commenting I love it! Hope everyone enjoys the next chapter!
(Sorry for my rambling!)


We stepped off the train and stepped off of Platform 9 & 3 Quarters.

I looked around for five minutes then found my mom with tears in her eyes when she saw me. My sister was with her, trying to perfect her already perfect spins and turns. I couldn't believe she let her hair grow so long; it was dangling half way down her back in her striking brunet waves.

"This must be Draco..?" My mom asked as she smiled and wiped away the happy tears on her face.

"Oh, yeah..." I giggled looking to the lost boy beside me. We were attached at our hands loosely. "This is my boyfriend, Draco."

I heard my sister scream and then looked over to see her on the ground freaking out. I couldn't help myself but laugh at her tantrum.

"Come one Jamie!" My mother yelled.

I heard a whisper in my ear as we started to leave, "What's your mother's name?"

"Her name's is Cynthia." I responded quietly back in his ear.

"And my younger sister's name is Jamie. She is a perfectionist when it comes to the art of dance."

"You bet I am Herms!" She flipped her hair in my face as she walked by.

"Oh, good one..." I yelled back. "As soon as I come back home, you start this... great." Draco squeezed my hand and I returned the hand squeeze.

"Hey mom... is Valerie supposed to be here?"

"Yes, but she was too stubborn to get out of the car. She had a rough night last night; she flew in last night at three in the morning."

"Poor sis..."

"You have two sisters?" Draco said allowed with slight fear in his eyes.

"Yeah, but Valerie is cool."

"And I'm not?" Jamie screamed back at me happily.

I smirked at her, "Well you see you're my little sister; I can't look up to you. You haven't accomplished much yet little one." Draco couldn't help but laugh with me.

"Behave for the next little while. Is that possible?" My mother told us laughing at my reply to my sister.

"My baby girl is still around..." My father cooed. "I knew the doctor was wrong, you're a tough young woman. You know that while you're here though, you're going to have to go to the hospital so the doctor can check up on you."

"I figured as much..." I caressed Draco's back as he stood beside me, tensing up. "Dad, this is Draco." I tried lightening up the subject. "Draco is this is..."

"So this is the boy you inform us so much about in your letters." He shook Draco's hand firmly, as if meeting an employer, instead of my boyfriend.

"Draco this is my dad, Garret..." The muscles in my boyfriends back eased slightly. I guess knowing the name of my father and everyone else, put him only slightly more at ease. Maybe I had taken his mind off of the whole hospital visit.

As the week passed by, I was hesitant about taking Draco with me to the hospital to hear the outcome of my cancer and how bad it was becoming. He told me that he was with me till the end. He refused to sit around my house waiting for me to come home; he had to come with me.

We stepped into the hospital, we meaning Valerie, Jamie, my mom, Draco and myself. My dad had appointments all day and couldn't sneak away. The second we stepped foot into the hospital doorway, Draco's body became stone. I whispered soothing things in his ear as I ran my fingers threw his hair and rubbed his arms comfortingly.

"Ready?" Valerie asked me brushing back her blonde hair.

"I've been doing this since I was eleven; I'm pretty used to this by now." My older sister hugged me, and then waved Jamie in to hug me too. The three of us stood there for a minute then let go. I hugged my mom and told her that I only wanted Valerie and Draco in the room with me.

We walked into an area for the nurse to do the necessary tests to figure out if I was getting better or worse.

I held Draco's hand for most of the time we were in the room. This never used to bug me, but now I started to tear up when she took my blood for a routine blood test.

I was comforted by Val's words, and Draco's caressing. "Thanks." I smiled at them when the doctor was done and left.

She walked back in, "You're face isn't as pale and it's plumper, and you have more energy. You could be getting better." The nurse told me. I knew Draco's heart jumped when he heard that, but I didn't rely on what the nurse told me. To me it was just non-sense that they told patience to give them false hope. I wasn't going to tell Draco that though.

We had to wait for results to come back, which usually took a week. The week passed and I had one day where I stayed in the bathroom for most of the day, with one of my sisters or Draco by my side.

"You shouldn't haveto deal with this, I'm sorry I guilted you into coming here." I sobbed.

"I wanted to come; I want to 'deal' with this. You're my girlfriend; I'd do anything for you." He caressed my skin and I gave into his words and fell into his body as he comforted me.

"I wish I had a boyfriend like yours, the last boyfriend I had freaked out because of what you had. He wasn't worth it. Don't let him go little sister." Valerie told me as she came in with a cold cloth, a glass of water and my medication.

Draco went a slight shade of pink, but I just thanked my sister wearily. I slowly sat up took my medication with a gulp of water and snuggled back into Draco's arms. He was warm and where I wanted to stay for a long time. I closed my eyes and after a while I drifted off to sleep in his arms.
