Hello again!! READ MY STORY!! Review it too!! Hopefully we can get on to the school year after 4 chapters!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It's hard to find a short person in a crowd of people. Then he saw a flash of auburn hair. That had to be her. Harry could never forget the color of . As he moved closer, he heard the laugh that he'd longed to hear for years. The sound of Rose Donnelly being happy. His destination grew nearer.

"Hello, Potter." Harry halted. He caught sight of greasy black hair and an evil smirk.

"Hello, Snape," he replied with a false happiness.

Snape's voice was quiet and angry. "So, the great Harry Potter has come back to teach. But this time it won't be so easy. Your antics here have ended, Potter. If I find you putting even one fingernail out of line, you will be out of here faster than you can say, 'Hogwarts!'"

"I know what this is about, Professor Snape. I'm sure you'd make an excellent Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher." Snape must've known what Harry was talking about, because he nervously grabbed his left arm. His mouth twitched, and he turned around and stomped off.

"Could it be? Harry Potter?" Harry twirled around to meet two deep blue eyes, lighting up as the smile on her mouth grew. They studied him for a moment, and then she threw her arms around him. He, in return, held her. This feeling came over him. He didn't want to let go. Ever.

This was what love felt like.

Harry finally relaxed as she talked. "I haven't seen you in years!"

He smiled shyly and said, "I know. When did you move back?"

"Only two years ago. I'm sorry I never got in touch with you, I've been really busy…"

"It's okay," Harry replied and hugged her again. They parted ways and Harry treaded back to his room. It was hard to leave Rose behind. When he walked in, he found an envelope on the side table; it was addressed to him. Harry opened it and read the letter.

Dear Mr. Potter,

You have been chosen to be the head teacher of the Gryffindor house. It is your duty to keep your house in line. The major punishments will be left up to you, and it's your responsibility to inform your house of important news. If you find problems with a student of another house, talk to their head teacher.

The other head teachers are as follows: Marcus Willow, Herbology, Hufflepuff Rose Donnelly, Transfiguration, Ravenclaw Severus Snape, Potions, Slytherin

Thank you and I will see you tomorrow,

Professor Albus Dumbledore Headmaster

Harry set the letter down. It felt great to be a head, but he worried. Snape would probably take points off Gryffindor students or give them detention the first chance he got, now that Harry was in charge of them. And Rose was always a smart girl. She'd do a great job. Marcus Willow must've been new.

As dark came, Harry took a stroll outside. It was a wonderful summer evening, and it let him clear his mind of everything. He sat down and took a deep breath. "Well," he said to himself, "I should probably be getting inside." And Harry walked back into the castle, unaware that someone was watching him through a window.

Sorry… terrible writer's block!! I would've gone further, but I really wanted to post. And I'm sorry for the lack of strength in the conversation between Harry and Rose. It probably should've been more… meaningful. I mean they haven't seen each other in 6 years!! Anyway, REVIEW PLEEZ!!!
