Chapter 24
The Tear of Love
Marykate was getting bored indeed. She yawned as she waited for Meagan to wake up. Harry was pacing the room, looking worried. "All right. That's it. We've been here for days!" Marykate said, her eyes not totally but slightly red, "I'm going to wake her up!" She stood up and raised her hands over Meagan's form (which now is Cate's.)
There was a blinding light and Meagan leapt from the bed. "YEEEEEEEOW!" She howled. She landed on her feet and there was smoke coming off her clothes. "AHH!" She screamed, raising her hands in attempt to put it out. It didn't work for she was now in Cate's body.
"MARYKATE! PUT-ME-OUT!" Meagan hollered, hopping up and down. Marykate gave a fluttering sigh and put her out.
"She falls apart every time she can't use her powers." Marykate said. Meagan made a terrible face. "I do not." She said. The golden flecks in Cate's eyes flashed. "It's not like you can do anything about it." Said Marykate. Meagan wiggled uncomfortably. She bit her lip, thinking. "Well, I could posses your body. That's all I know Cate can do." She said. Marykate's eyebrows shot up.

Cate's form melted away swiftly as she slept, making her look like Meagan again. Her body stretched to make her taller and her eyes melted from brown to blue. She was sleeping peacefully through this, not noticing a thing as she slept in a tiny inn.

Jeremy stumbled into the tiny inn. He had somewhat regained his memory. He walked over to the desk. Wile waiting for the clerk to come by, her flipped through the sign-in book. Then he saw a name that was all too familiar. Cate Black.

"Mmph." Meagan groaned. "Wake up." Harry hissed. She only rolled over. Harry sighed. It seemed as though she now had Cate's death-like sleep.
Harry's face lit up as he had an idea. He waved his wand and made gold sparks shoot out the end. Meagan gave a yelp and fell out of bed. "Shhh." Harry said, and gestured toward the door. Meagan followed, waving her wand and changing into her clothes (a baggy shirt and jeans).
They walked out of the Hospital Wing and out into the grounds. Harry smiled, looking at Meagan, whose face lit up. There were fairies fluttering all over the place. It was almost dawn, and the sky was light blue. It was dark enough for the stars to twinkle dully. Cate's/Meagan's eyes glowed.
"How long have you known about this?" Meagan whispered, barley audible. "Since my first year. I would come down here every December 21st to watch it." Harry replied, his eyes twinkling from the fairy light. "Why aren't we cold?" Asked Meagan. "Each of the fairies gives off heat and makes the place warm." Said Harry, turning to watch the full moon in the west.
Without another word, they started to run through the gathered fairies, laughing. After running for about ten minutes, Meagan laid down on the grass. Harry did the same and laid next to her. "It's so beautiful." Meagan sighed. "Yeah, isn't it?" Harry said, his regaining his breath, "I haven't shown anyone this before." He got up and pulled Meagan to her feet. They walked over to a bench and sat down.
Harry put his hands on Meagan's and she smiled softly. He leaned forward so his lips were near her ear. "I love you." He whispered, starting to kiss her neck. Meagan blinked slowly as Harry raised himself. They leaned forward and their lips touched. They kissed the kiss of pure love. Harry's eyes filled with tears as he remembered their first kiss, back in sixth year. He blinked the tear away, making it slide down his cheek. It landed on Meagan's leg.
They both closed their eyes and kissed each other so hard they didn't see the blinding white light that resounded around Meagan. Meagan was hugging Harry tightly, feeling as if she could never let him go. He was hugging her tightly too, for his love was strong for her. Meagan sobbed into Harry's shoulder. He smoothed her hair and bowed his head near hers, making him smell the fragrance of flowers. "I love you, I love you, I love you." Meagan sobbed, taking a tight hold to Harry's shirt. "I do too, I do too." Harry soothed her, "I'll love you no matter who you look like."
Harry raised his head and looked into the fading twilight, still smoothing Meagan's hair. Then he looked down at her and gave a startled movement. Meagan was herself again!
"Meagan!" He said in an excited whisper, "You're yourself again!" Meagan looked down at herself and gasped. "Oh, Harry," She sighed, falling into his arms. She looked at him out of her bloodshot bluish-green eyes. Then they fell into each other's arms, kissing with pure love as the fairies fluttered around them, humming peacefully.

Cate twisted around in her sleep. She sat up and looked down. She was still Meagan.
