Chapter5: Dreams in the Wind
Diana rolled over in her bed. She had a horrible feeling in her stomach.
She kept trying to get to sleep, but even singing to herself wasn't working.(Which it normally did.) After laying there for a while, she got up and walked down into the common room.
She was surprised to see, when she got into the common room, that Harry was down there sitting by the fire. She walked up, and sat down next to him. "Couldn't sleep?" He asked her.
"Yeah, I have this horrible feeling." Diana said, staring into the fire.
"So do I." Harry looked over at her, and then put his arms around her waist. Diana looked over at him, and smiled. Harry felt very comfortable with her.
"Diana, does this make us official? Like, are we a couple?" Harry quickly looked away when he asked this.
"You mean boyfriend and girlfriend?" She started to stare into the fire again.
"Yeah, If you don't want to be that's fine. But if you do that would be great, because I really like you." Harry said nervously.
"I really like you, too. And I would love to be your girlfriend. But..."
"But, there's always a but." Harry began to feel weak.
"But, It's my Uncle. I don't want to tell him just yet. So can we not let anyone know until after the dance. Well, I mean we can tell Ron and Hermione. I just don't want him to worry so much. But I do want to be your girlfriend." Diana continued to stare into the fire.
"We don't have to tell anyone just yet. I was just worried you didn't want to go out with me." Diana looked over at him, and began to stare into his eyes.
They talked for a while, and Harry held her in his arms. "Diana can I ask you something?" Harry looked at her.
"Sure."
"Before Ron tricked you in to trying out, why didn't you play quidditch anymore?"
"It's a long sad story, are you sure you want to know?"
"Yeah, I'm sure."
Diana sighed and began. "Well, I had a brother, who was about a year older than me. His name was William. And when I was little, my dad began to teach my brother and I how to play quidditch.
"When he began school he tried out to be Salem's seeker, and he made it. Well, when I got to school I tried out to be chaser, and I made it also.
"We where playing for the championship, at the end of the year. My parents where there, and my uncle was there. They were so proud of us. The other team was winning by a few points, but not by a lot. William saw the snitch, and went after it. When he caught it he was bucked off his broom, and fell to his death. He still had the snitch in his hand." Diana stopped, and she started to cry.
"The next year they offered me my brother's position. I took it for my brother, but I never knew I would be labeled the best seeker Salem's ever seen. During my 5th year we once again were playing for the championship. Once again my parents were there, and my uncle. I saw the snitch, and I caught. But I saw, this man, I don't even know if you would call him a man. He laughed, and I felt a lot of pain all over my body. And I fell."
She stopped and stared into the fire. "I didn't know who he was until the night my parents died. I saw him the night they were murdered. It was Voldemort." She began to cry again. "He killed my parents because they were Death Eaters before I was born. And they left him, and so did my uncle. But he's after me, and my uncle won't tell me why."
She continued to cry. "Are you going to be ok?" Harry asked, starting to wipe away her tears.
"I'll be fine." Diana smiled at him though her tears.
They both began to stare into the fire, he continued to hold her. Then he kissed her forehead . After lots of silence, they began to talk again. "I'm bit tired I think we better go to bed." Diana said, with a smile.
"Yeah, we should." Harry smiled back.
Then he kissed her. But the kiss was different from the one in class. It was soft, and gentle. And they both felt something they had never felt before. When they pulled away it was just as awkward as the first kiss. The sat and said nothing for a few minutes. Then Diana broke the silence. "I have never been kissed like that before."
"I have never kissed anyone like that before." Then they both laughed.
They then got up to go to bed. Harry walked her up to the door of her dorm,
and he her kissed again, just as nice as the one before. "Well, Good night." She said with a smile.
"Good night, Diana" He said, but just as she was about to walk into her dorm room, he grabbed her by the waist, pulled her back, and kissed her again.
Then they said there last good nights, and went to bed.

She looked so beautiful. Even more beautiful then she usually did. She was wearing a long blue silky dress. Her hair was blowing in the wind. Her lips were a soft shade of pink.
It was a beautiful day, and they were taking a walk outside. Harry was holding Diana's hand. Occasionally, they would stop and kiss. Then, they would hold each other in each other's arms, and stay there for a while. After they would hold each other, they kissed and continued on with their walk.
They had stopped by a lake, and Harry pulled Diana close to him. They then began to kiss. Harry put his hands on her hips, and continued to kiss her. Diana held onto to him tightly.
Harry loved the way he felt when she held him like that. He loved the way she kissed him.
When the kiss was over, Diana had seemed to have disappeared. Harry looked around, and called out her name, but couldn't find her. All of a sudden he heard her scream.
Suddenly, his eyes opened wide, and he was laying in his bed. He sat up, and realized Diana was in trouble.
***
Harry's face was so close to hers. Everything was so perfect. Suddenly he kissed her, and she kissed him back. He ran his hands though her hair. Diana held him close to her. She felt her knees get weak.
It was amazing. She and Harry were able to be together without having to worry about her uncle. She felt so alive.
When the kiss was over, Diana pulled away, and stared into Harry's green eyes. He began to stare into her eyes.
Suddenly, Harry wasn't there. But something was. It was something horrible. And it seemed to want Diana.
Diana woke, but it wasn't because of her dream. She heard call Harry for her. She felt someone holding her, but to her surprise it wasn't Harry holding her. It was a Dementor with his hood down. Ready to give Diana her final kiss...
A/N: Hey everyone! I'd like to thank you all for the feedback on my story, keep it up! I have been getting a lot of , Diana's such a Mary Sue, but keep on reading she is not as perfect as you think. Her imperfections will start to show in Chapter 8, which I'm in the works of writing.
Now on forth to my dedication. I'd like to dedicate this story to all the light bulbs out there. If it weren't for you Harmony, Star*dust, and I would have nothing to laugh at. (Hey Harmony! If he only had a brain! )
