1Hey! I'm back! Ready to let you guys read another of my eventful chapters. School is starting, so if I don't get a chapter up in a while, I'm very, very busy. I'll have homework, and I've got marching band, so I'll have a full schedule. Anyway, let's get off of the topic of my problems. I do not own any of the Harry Potter characters or sets. However, I do own part of the plot and the characters Taylor, Andi, and Taylor. Enjoy!

CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE

The next day they all got their schedules and wandered off to class.

That evening in the common room Hermione received a letter from Victor. She wondered why he had sent a letter so soon. Surly he hadn't gotten the one she sent him yet.

Her eyes zoomed through it and at the end she gave a little gasp. She couldn't believe it.

"Hermione, what's wrong?" Andi asked, hearing Hermione's gasp.

"Victor's letter." Hermione replied in a small voice.

"What is it? What did he say?" Ron asked.

"He...he..." she lowered the letter and they could see tears leaking down her cheeks.

At that moment, Taylor walked over. "Hey guys. What's up?" he asked. Then he noticed Hermione's state. "Hermione what's wrong?"

Everyone heard the genuine concern in his voice, and Andi was puzzled. Why would Taylor be so worried about Hermione?

Hermione didn't say a word, and Andi took the letter from her.

Hermione just said, "The end..." then started to sob.

Andi read for a bit, gasped, and said, "Hermione, I'm so sorry."

"Well, what is it?" Taylor asked, with nods from everyone wanting to hear.

"Can I say?" Andi asked, and Hermione nodded.

Andi read, "'Hermione, I'm sorry to say this, but our relationship must come to an end. I'm my feelings for you are gone. I have found another girl and believe she will be the right one for me. We can still be friends, but, as of this moment, we are no longer in a relationship.'"

Andi lowered the letter, and saw the sympathy for Hermione on everyone's faces. To complete the picture, and to Andi's utter amazement, Taylor was seen letting Hermione cry into his shoulder.

When Hermione left, Andi grabbed Taylor's hand and dragged him up to his dormitory. She saw no one was in there, so she started on Taylor.

"What do you think you were doing?!" she cried.

"What?"

"You have a girlfriend for goodness sake!"

"I was being a friend! Is there something wrong with that?!"

"Yes, there is! What if Ginny saw you? She had no clue what was going on! If she saw, all she could see was Hermione in your arms, sobbing into your shoulder! She'll tink you're cheating on her!"

"Then I'll explain! What if Harry had done that? What would you have done?"

"I would have come to see what the problem was. I know Harry doesn't love Hermione. No. I know. Don't question that, because I know for a fact Harry genuinely loves me."

"And how do you know that, sis?"

"I can tell, Taylor. I know. I don't know how I know, but I know."

With that, Andi left to go check on Ginny. She knew for a fact that Ginny had seen it, because she saw Ginny staring at Taylor, then running to the girls's dormitories.

"Ginny?" Andi asked, walking up to her. "Ginny, what's wrong?"

"Taylor," Ginny sobbed. "He's cheating on me!"

"With who?" Andi asked gently.

"H-Hermione. He was holding her in his arms. H-He used to hold m-me like that."

"Ginny, do you really think Hermione would cheat on Victor? Or that she would be going out with Taylor when she knows that you two are dating? Besides, he's not. Also, I just yelled at him for doing what he did. He's probably still in his dorm. Wh y don't you go talk to him?"

"I will. Thanks, Andi." Ginny said, wiping away her tears.

She left, and Andi started to get read for bed. It had been a long, and exhausting, day.

As she was about to get into bed, Hermione came in.

"Andi? Harry would like a word with you. I'm fine. I have now realized Victor and I aren't right for each other anyway. I'm going to bed. Goodnight."

"See you in the morning," Andi replied as she slipped on her robe.

"Harry?" Andi asked, entering the common room.

"Over here."

"You wanted to talk to me. What is it you want to tell me?"

"Dumbledore needs to see you, me, Taylor, and Tara immediately. I have no clue why."

At that moment Andi saw Ginny burst out of the boys's dorms and run to the girls's.

"Harry, why don't you get Taylor? I'll go see what's up with Ginny and get Tara."

With that, Andi started walking to the girls's dormitories.

When she got to the dorm she heard sobbing in the direction of Ginny's bed.

When she got there she asked, "Ginny, what happened?"

Ginny took control of her sobs and answered, "I got there and I asked him what happened. He told me, then I started to tell him I thought he was cheating on me and that he shouldn't do things like that if I don't know what's going on. Then he said I should come see if there's a reason he's holding another girl like that. I started yelling that a girls's mind doesn't work that way. Then he said they do, because you said that's what you'd do if Harry was doing that."

"Andi stopped her. "Is that all he said? Because that's not all I told him. I said I'd do that because I know Harry wouldn't cheat on me."

"Taylor didn't say that. Then he said if I can't do something like that, or I couldn't trust him, we shouldn't be dating. T-Then, he b-broke up w-with me!" Ginny wailed, breaking into sobs again.

"Get some sleep. I have to go. I'll talk to you in the morning." Then she added, more to herself than Ginny, "and I'll give Taylor a piece of my mind."

Andi hurried over to Tara's bed. "Tara. Tara, wake up. Wake up!"

"What?" Tara asked sleepily.

"Meet me in the common room, pronto. You'd better put your robe on, too."

"Andi, what's going on?"

"No idea. Just hurry."

When Andi, Tara, Taylor, and Harry were gathered in the common room, Harry said, "Let's go. We need to get to Dumbledore's office as fast as possible."

When they got to his office and were seated, Dumbledore said, "I have some grave news for you children."

"What is it, professor?" Andi asked, worried.

"It involves your dad," Dumbledore replied, pointing at Andi and Taylor, "and your mom."

This time Dumbledore pointed to Harry and Tara.

"Sir, what's going on?" Tara asked apprehensively.

I surely hope you all liked this chapter! We had some problems with relationships this time. The question is, will they straiten out? You'll have to wait for that one to be answered. However, the big question right now is: What is so important that has to do with Lily and Sirius that it's urgent for the four to know? That question will be answered in the next chapter, so anticipate it. I will get the next chapter posted ASAP, but I am very busy. PLEASE REVIEW! Thanks!
