I wake up to the sun shining through open curtains. I open my eyes and see Julie smiling at me. I rub the sleep from my eyes and she tells me how everything at home is going. We sit and talk for a few hours until I need to leave for Hogwarts. I Transport to my dorm and sit on the bed. Outside of my dorm, I can feel everyone moving and running to his/her friends or significant other. I noticed that since I had kissed Neville on New Year's Eve, I had been more sensitive, in a way. I can sense people's absences and presences. I can feel what they feel and hear what they think. I…I'm scared. Is this normal because of my abnormality?

I go into the library and go to the Herbology section where Neville and the others are. I look for a book on the Devils Snare. I find one saying DEVILS SNARE ENCYCLOPEDIA. I open it and start to read, sitting on the floor, the others are staring at me. Nothing I've read is something I didn't know. I get to a part on how a Devils Snare creates 'offspring' and mark the book. I already know all this and look in the index to if what I need to know is in here, and see that there is a certain chapter for it. I open and see that there are exactly a hundred pages on the 'mind' of the devils snare. I find a book on the managing and messing with physical/psychological aspects of plants. I check out both books and go into my dorm. I look through and come to a part with The Devils Snare. It's a picture of me when I was a newborn plant and a picture of me as a two year old. I put the book back and put the others back. I run to my room and calm down before leaving to go to the Greenhouses.

I enter the first Greenhouse and hear Professor Sprout talking to someone in an office. I knock and hear Neville's voice say, "Come In."

I walk in to Neville in the chair behind the desk, and Professor Sprout on the side closest to me. I walk in and Professor says, "You need help in Herbology. I have picked my top student, Neville Longbottom, to tutor you. I'll expect your grades to be better. I'll leave you two to talk it over."

She leaves and I sit in the chair furthest from Neville. I realize his eyes look somewhat misty to me. I stretch an occlumens shield to his mind. His eyes are back to normal and he says, "You're name is Silver. Isn't it?"

I nod and he continues.

"I kissed you, New Year's Eve. Then Hannah got into my mind. I got mad for nothing and you broke your leg as I broke your heart. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."

"It's alright, Neville. I'll, hopefully, be fine."

He comes over and kisses me. I close my eyes as he stands me up. He starts to pull back, and I kiss him back. I feel his hands slide across my torso, stopping at my hips. I wrap my arms around his neck as he pulls back again. I smile as we both try to catch our breath. He takes one hand to tuck my hair behind my ear as he says, "Maybe we should talk about our study dates."

"Tuesdays through Thursdays after school and Saturday afternoons work for you?"

"Um, sure. I-I-I guess."

I smile and he wraps his arms around my waist, kissing me quickly before unraveling himself to leave. When he does, I watch him as leaves. I leave to the room of requirement and go inside…

To find it already in use with a bunch of students. Neville separates from the crowd and asks, "Did you follow me here?"

"No, I knew of this room for a while and I sometimes come in here to practice my music. I was just going to do that, but I guess I won't. I swear myself to secrecy on this, so you guys are mostly safe."

"What do you mean mostly?"

"You have a traitor in your midst. Marietta Edgeomb. She's telling Umbridge as we speak, so hurry up and go to your common Rooms."

They all Left and I was there, all alone. A piano appeared, but I didn't ask for it. I turn, and there is Neville with a smile. He walks over and sits me on the piano bench.

"Will you play for me?"

"Another time, perhaps, but now you must leave; Umbridge will be here any minute."

He kisses my forehead and leaves. I watch him go and turn to play as Umbridge comes in. She looks around and sees only the piano and me.

"Where are the others?"

"Others? What are you talking about?"

"Dumbledore's Army! The other members, where ARE THEY!"

"I don't know what you're talking about, but clearly you need to have your mind checked."

She glares at me and I go back to playing. She runs out with the rest of the Industrial Squad and I keep playing until I'm sure they're gone. I telepathically connect with Harry.

Hello?

Hi, Harry.

Do I know you?

Conscience, remember?

I mean as a human.

Maybe…

You told us about Marietta telling.

Okay, fine. That was I.

Thank you. I've never met a nice Slytherin.

Well, now you have. Now, go to sleep. You're going to need all the sleep you can get.

Thank You, Silver.

You're Welcome.

His Occlumens shield is still up, so I'll be okay for tonight. Hopefully.

I walk back to the Slytherin Common Room. I say the password and go up to my dorm so I can change into my pajamas. A pair of lose Music-Note-covered shorts I bought and a faded KEEP CALM AND PLAY QUIDDITCH t-shirt I used to wear all the time. I grab Harry's tie and realize its scent is going away. no, no, no. I go up to the Gryffindor Common Room and Neville let's me in.

"Whose tie?"

"Harry's, but I need something else of his that has his scent."

"Why?"

"Do you remember when Harry had all those Nightmares?"

"Yeah…They were really bad."

"How many times has he woken up screaming this year?"

"None, but why?"

"He's got a connection with Voldemort."

Neville looks at me and asks, "Through his scar?"

"Yeah. I gave him a mind shield to Block Voldemort out of his mind."

"So, you need something with his scent to keep up the shield."

"I can do that or I have to have to have contact when I sleep."

"Contact?"

"I have to be touching that other person so I can remain keeping up his shield while my mind goes through its problems as I dream."

He grabs my hand and walks me up the stairwell to their dorm. I smile at Harry, Ron, Seamus, and Dean as Neville explains the situation. Harry then says he preferred that I be here so he can be sure that I'm not writing down his personal thoughts in a diary.

"I'm not like that, but whatever."

Harry leads me over to his bed and I make it bigger so we can both sleep comfortably. He pulls back the covers and we both climb in. He looks at me and asks, "What do we have to do?"

"I need to remain in contact with you, like holding hands or something. Nothing too bad."

He rolls onto his side to look at me and I notice a charm on his wrist.

"Is that a Dream Charm?"

"Yeah, all of us have got one."

"Why do you need those?"

"Trying to find out who my conscience was."

"Good for you, now take it off. I don't let people into my mind because they don't need to get into My Life. I thank you all for trying, but I have things I would like to keep Hidden."

"Are you just saying that so you can kill us in our sleep?"

I glare at Seamus and say, "If I wanted to, I would have a weapon on me and hidden. I kind of do, but it will only appear when I'm in danger. Am I going to be in Danger, Seamus?"

"No, Silver."

I turn to Neville who looks upset. I get up and take his hands to lead him away so we can talk.

"What's wrong? You seem upset, please tell me."

"Is this just a ploy to sleep with Harry?"

"I don't like Harry like that, Neville. Why are you so upset?"

"Forget it, okay. Look, I'll tutor you in Herbology, but no other contact than a simple hello, okay."

I nod and he leaves. I go over to Harry's bed and he wraps his arms around me as I try to keep my broken heart whole. It feels as though I'm slipping around on icy ground. I want to cry, but I don't want to show that I'm weak. The curtains close and I do a silent charm to keep everyone from hearing us. Harry holds me lose as I cry into his chest and he just doesn't understand what's going on. He hands me tissues as I cry my self out, then holds me as I try to fall asleep. When I do, I have weird experience with this dream…

I feel Neville's hands all over me, not a place remains untouched. Then, I hear a door creak open from a wall. I hold the blanket up to me and see Harry come in. Suddenly, I am dressed and standing there alone, my cheeks are probably red from the embarrassment of being caught, by Neville's dorm mate. This is so embarrassing. Harry asks, "Was that what I think it is?"

"Depends on what you think it is."

"You and Neville together and I think you wanted to-"

"Yes, it was what you think it was, but don't tell Neville, or I spill all your dreams on Cho."

"Would you really?"

"Honestly, I wouldn't."

I sit on a sofa that appeared, almost like the ROR. Harry sits next to me and asks, "How long have you loved Neville? I knew you liked him, but do you really love him?"

"I Love him with every fiber of my being. Please, don't tell anyone about what you saw."

"So that's what you were so upset about. Something that Neville said."

"He thinks I'm doing this so I can sleep with you. He said he'll tutor me, but he doesn't want me to say anything other than hello to him. I guess I'm just upset. Today he apologized and kissed me, and then after I was talking about you, he started to have his heart freeze over."

"I know fro a fact that Neville loves you. He's just upset because he thought you loved him."

"I DO LOVE HIM! I don't get why he thinks that I want to you-know-what with you. I mean, he's seen my mind, he's seen what I want, and it's only ever been the dreams of him and me you see. You never see my nightmares, but they include, Bellatrix, Neville, and My little sister. Neville or Clara end up being killed or both are. I can't stand to think that he hates me."

"Let's get up now."

He leaves into his dreams again and…

I wake up with Harry's back to me and the sun shining through the window. I shake Harry's shoulder and he wakes up. It's 6:00 in the morning and we both get out of bed. I leave to the Slytherin Common Room and go up to my dorm and change into my uniform. I smile when I leave and Go to the kitchens to request Vanilla Frozen Yoghurt, Strawberries, a bowl, a goblet, and a whisk. I whisk the strawberries and frozen yoghurt together until smooth and put it in the crystal goblet and drink it. Ready to face the day. I walk out to the green houses, deciding to skip all classes today. I go over to the Forbidden Forest and spend the day with the Thestrals and then leave to the Gryffindor Common Rooms. I am enabled access and Seamus makes way for me. I see Neville staring into the fire and walk up to him. He looks up at me and says, "I had no idea about what I did to you. Now that I do, I don't want yo to love me as much as you do. I won't blame you if you hate me after this."

I kiss him quickly then say, "I could NEVER hate you, Neville."

He lowers his head in shame and I watch as he climbs slowly up the stairs.

"You'd better go up after him. We'll try not come up for several hours."

"Thanks, Seamus," I say sarcastically.

I climb up the stairs and Neville is sitting on his bed. I come closer and he says, "Why do you even love me? I break your heart almost every time I've ever kissed you, yet you stay and love me when I want you to."

"I love you for many reasons. You never freaked out when I showed you what I really am. I love you because you never try to present yourself as anything but you. You're clumsy, forgetful, terrible at potions, have a love for Herbology, and you also have a sad past-"

I cut off because he's hanging his head. I sit next to him and bend so I can see his eyes. I catch them in a stare and they follow me as I sit up. I offer a small smile as I finish.

"You are all of those, and I Love you for it."

He kisses me and says, "I love you, too, Silver."

We kiss again and he says, "I'm sorry about how I acted when you told me about the shield thing. I thought that you just got close to me because you wanted Harry."

"I would NEVER do that to you. Please, don't think that."

He kisses me again and holds me close. He makes me feel safe and like I could just be myself, no one else. When Harry comes in, I realize that I won't need to keep something of his to keep up the shield when I dream because now my mind recognizes him so it shouldn't take anything to keep it up. I guess I'll try it. I'm only saying this because I want to sleep in Neville's bed if he'll let me. I want Neville to hold me the way he is now, tonight.

I look up at him and he says, "I-If you D-don't have to sleep with h-Harry, I-I'd like it I-if you'd sleep with m-me."

I kiss the stuttering boy in front of me and say, "Yes, I'll sleep with you."
