A/N: Hey guys I'm back! This chapter is kind of short, and is in Faye's P.O.V. because I need to tell her story too, but there is much more to come. When I was on vacation I wrote like five chapters and for the most part they're pretty long. So with out further ado chapter ten!

Chapter Ten: "There's A Moment You Know…"
"Come on Faye don't do this." Alex yelled from the other side of my door. Easy enough for her to say. She hadn't just been told she was a distraction by the guy she loves. She banged the door a few more times. "You can't stay in there forever!" After Cedric had broken up with me Alex had orbed me home to the manor and I had been locked in my room ever since.
"Watch me!" I yelled back at her. This particular morning I was clinging to the porcelain god like it was my best friend in the world. I had been left feeling emotionally helpless and my stomach wasn't exactly feeling agreeable so who could really blame me?
"Dumbledore has given you some leeway considering the circumstances but if you stay home from school much longer people are going to start rumors. And you know how fast those spread…"
"Alex I appreciate that you're trying to help but right now I just need to be left alone." I sighed. "I'm not quite ready to be bombarded by the stupid fan girls. In my current condition they'd tear me apart." I couldn't stop talking, even though it wasn't making anything better. It was like word vomit. "I don't think I could be near them let alone room with them." I said referring to my 'wonderful' Cedric fanatic roommates.
"Faye do you want anything? You must be starving. You haven't been coming down for meals." It was my aunt Piper. She never thinks we eat enough, although in this case she could be right.
"I don't think she's in the mood for eating. She's been in her bathroom all morning puking her guts out." Alex countered.
"Actually I would…" Oh no more word vomit. "…like food. If it wouldn't be too much trouble do you think I could have pancakes and pickles?" A pain in my stomach appeared. I must have been hungrier than I thought. I take it back it wasn't word vomit it was actual vomit.
"Um are you sure Faye?" Alex said, probably only questioning me because she could hear me puking it up again. When I finally got the chance I told her I was sure.
"So that's an order of pancakes and… er pickles? You want them separately correct?" Piper was obviously a little thrown off by the pickles. All I had to say at least it wasn't something weird like demon slime.
"Yeah, well I think so… unless…" Any other day I would have stopped my self but it was too late my stomach had made up its mind. "… you can make pickle pancakes." There was a silence. "No really guys, I'm completely serious."
"Yuck!" Alex protested from outside my room. "Have you completely lost it Faye? That's disgusting." But I didn't listen to her.
"Do you think you could make it Piper? Surely you've made much weirder dishes in you're past. Heck I think I've even had to try some of them." It was sort of a stretch but it was definitely a possibility.
"I guess I could try…" Yes I had won. "But no guarantee you'll like them." And with that both she and Alex headed back down the hall and down the stairs finally leaving me in peace.
When Piper returned with my pancakes, that yes I know probably sound gross, I basically inhaled them and though it sounds odd they were surprisingly good, especially when I added the chocolate sauce.
"Oh come on!" Alex commented putting her hands over her mouth. "You are putting chocolate sauce in addition to this already gross concoction?" I looked up at her rather innocently.
"What?" I asked Alex giving her a look. "They're delicious Aunt Piper." I said to Piper who was sitting in front of her own plate of pickle pancakes debating with her self weather or not to give them a try or not.
"Ya know Faye I've been thinking about it and you're right. It wouldn't be fair to make you face the fan girls yet; at least we can try to avoid them as much as possible. Maybe if you just went back for classes and then came back home for meals and sleeping…" I swear my cousin is absolutely brilliant sometimes.
"That could work; of course they'd probably still talk about me in class but at least it won't be quite as bad with teacher supervision." Then it hit me. There was on class I didn't want to be taking any time soon. "But what about my advanced potions class? We both take that one with the seventh year Hufflepuffs. And that one day Snape got mad and assigned seating, at the time it worked in my favor but…"
"You got seated next to Cedric." She finished for me. "I hate to say it because I don't think its right, but I think you're just going to have to grin and bear it." I wanted to argue but unfortunately she was right.
A/N: Hey again sorry for the sad length of the chapter… :( but I promise you that the next one is longer. It's in my note book, as well as the next three chapters. The first two of which being pretty damn long for being my chapters but in a good way. Haha as always reviews are greatly appreciated.
