Hp fan Fo LyFe: Do you have any idea how red I turn when I read your reviews? THANKS!!!!!!!
OK, I'm the beta-reader for my sisters' story
Her name is Linkgirl and the story ID is 1193868
It's a Zelda story, so read if ya want!
Disclaimer: I don't own Harry, Ron, Cedric, Amos, Draco, Pansy, Charlie etc... Ah heck! If you read the books you should know what characters I own and which ones I don't own!
*~*
"So that's it! He takes one student, when we go to save the student he moves in and attacks another student." Cylia slammed her fist on the table and tightly closed her eyes when Harry explained what happened.
"Where's Gin?" Sirius asked.
"She ran off when she heard what happened. Natalie, who is in her third year, is with Dennis Creevey who is also in third year and is Colins' brother." Hermione answered.
Christina stood up and started walking towards the door.
"Where are you going?" Cylia asked.
"I'm going to make a visit that I should have a long time ago," Christina answered.
Cylia groaned and ran after her.
"GIRLS!" Sirius exclaimed.
"Let them go," Aliza said.
~
Ginny kept running and running.
Colin was her ex-boyfriend and best friend.
She somehow managed to enter the common room the members of the bond shared.
Everyone looked at her.
"What?" She snapped.
"Gin, where have you been!?" Ron, who wasn't a member of the bond but was allowed to know their password to their common room, asked.
Ginny groaned.
"Why do you even care? I sure don't care anymore," Ginny said sitting down.
Cylia and Christina silently walked into the common room.
"Why do I care!? May I remind you that I am your brother and it is my job to care?" Ron kneeled in front of her.
Ginny threw her hands up in the air.
"You don't get it do it!? Of course not! You only saw him as a camera freak! Well, that camera FREAK is my friend and he is now in a coma! Now if you'll excuse me, Natalie and I have to comfort Dennis." Ginny said.
Everybody saw she was crying as she pushed past Oliver and Aliza.
"She was best friends with Colin," Hermione said sadly.
"And now he's in a coma because of Voldemort!" Cylia spat and stormed out.
Cedric groaned and followed her.
"Ron, why don't you take care of Ginny this time?" Christina suggested.
"Only if you help Cedric with your sister," Ron said.
Christina followed Cedric and Ron walked in the direction Ginny ran.
Hermione frowned.
"Why does all this always happen to Ginny?" She asked.
"I don't know. Voldemort is going to pay," Harry spat.
Ron caught up with Ginny and grabbed her shoulders and jerked her against the wall.
"You listen to me right now, Ginny, Dennis isn't to only one who needs comforting. Let us help you. Help us by fighting Voldemort with all our strength combined." Ron pleaded.
"Why aren't you a member of this bond?" Ginny whispered.
"Hermione didn't want me in anymore danger," He smiled
"OK, let's do it," Ginny grinned; though it didn't reach her blue eyes.
Her eyes were full of love, sadness and hatred.
She gave him a quick hug and walked away.
*~*
"Cylia!" Cedric saw her dark red curls bouncing as she was walking fast to avoid any topics about Voldemort.
Christina had just about enough.
She muttered something under her breath and Cylia zoomed towards them.
"You used a summoning charm on her?" Cedric asked amused.
"No, I used a bloody body binding curse!" Christina said sarcastically as Cylia fell into Cedric.
"Ouch," came Cylias' muffled voice.
Cylia straightened herself out and glared at Christina.
"Taking advantage of your freaking wand-less magic?" Cylia hissed.
Christina smirked.
"Look, I know EXACTLY what you want to do now, but don't. Having a nice little conversation with Voldie Dear isn't gonna help," Cedric said.
"Says who?" Cylia asked.
"Says me. The most wonderful, cutest-" He started but Christina and Cylia interrupted him.
Cylia said "Egocentric" And the same time Christina said "Egotistical"
They both laughed, but continued.
"Self absorbed," Cylia said.
"Obsessive over himself," Christina smirked.
"Whatever," Cedric grumbled and walked away leaving Cylia and Christina laughing.
*~*
"Big news!" Cylia said walking into the Great Hall where all the students were told to go.
"What's up, Riddle?" Alex Johnson asked coldly.
"What's up is that if you use that tone with me one more time I will cause your body to go inside out," She snarled.
She snapped her fingers and her voice filled the Great Hall.
"I just received a letter from Dumbledore who is currently out of town telling me that Voldemort" some students winced "has control over Azkaban and it's Dementors." She frowned.
Cho Chang was smirking.
Cedric walked by Cylia and started to speak.
"Magical families and Muggles' are being snatched up and taken to Azkaban by the Dark Lord. Currently we only know of the following families: The Moons' were taken," He started.
Destiny Moon, a sixth year Ravenclaw, started sobbing.
"Kyle Simmons was taken," Cylia said.
Hermiones' eyes darkened then welled up with tears.
Angel Simmons and Summer Simmons glanced at each other and had slow tears falling from their eyes.
"The Sanders'" Oliver said.
Annabelle hugged her knees to her chest and sobbed. Seamus rubbed her back soothingly.
"The Fudges'" Stacey said.
"The Patils'" Ginny said.
Parvati and Padma started sobbing.
Ginny hesitated before saying, "Helena Malfoy somehow got snatched up,"
"WHAT!? I thought this place was supposed to be safe! Yet somehow a STUDENT no less, got kidnapped!?" A third year Gryffindor screeched.
Draco breathed heavily and started muttering to himself.
"Please, remain calm!" Pansy said.
"And the Creeveys'. That is all. Those who are related to the victims may go to the hospital wing for some sleeping potion for those restless nights. Oh yes, Alex, I forgot to tell you that your mother is dead." Cylia finished.
"What?" Alex glared.
"Your so called father killed her when she was about to turn him in. The Malfoys and Johnson's are already sentenced to life. If they come out alive they'll be sent to Azkaban." Christina snarled.
Alex glared at both the Riddle girls before snarling, "Mark my words, both of you, I will make you both pay," and he walked out.
"I'm sure of that!" Aliza yelled, then muttered, "squirt"
Everyone snorted.
*~*
"Should we send the students home?" Stacey asked suddenly in the common room.
"No," Sirius said.
"But one girl has been killed," Stacey said.
Ginny silently sobbed.
"One girl has been kidnapped," She continued.
Dracos' eyes filled with sadness.
"And one guy was put into a coma." She finished.
"Yes but look at how many people OUTSIDE of Hogwarts have been taken to Azkaban by Voldemort!" Oliver said.
"True," Stacey mumbled.
Suddenly Cylia jumped up and started pacing.
"McGonagall and Dumbledore are out of town now, meaning Christina and I are in charged of the school, correct?" She asked.
"Yea so?" Cedric answered.
"With Dumbledore and McGonagall gone for two more weeks, Tom can attack any moment," Ginny said realizing what Cylia was saying.
"That's right. That's it! We'll have Aurors guarding the towers and patrolling the grounds from now on. We can't afford any more mourning." Cylia said.
"Brilliant!" Aliza exclaimed.
"Why didn't I think of that?" Hermione mused.
"Because I'm smarter than you," Cylia said.
"A snowstorm will take place in Hell before that comes true," Hermione hissed.
Everyone laughed.
"Okay Miss Smarty-Pants, tell me this;
What are the effects of Velomony?" Cylia challenged.
"Erm... what?" Hermione replied dumbly.
"She's lost her touch!" Harry gasped mockingly.
"Try this,
What is the name of the potion that causes the opposite effects of Veritaserum?" Cylia asked.
"Erm... there's a potion that does that?" Hermione replied blinking.
"Yes, and its called VELOMONY!" Cylia said.
Hermione blushed and everyone burst out laughing.
Cylia chuckled and picked up a long dark purple candle that had red, pink, baby blue, orange and lime stripes on it.
"What is this candle?" She asked.
"I don't know!" Hermione cried.
Cylia giggled and said, "It's a enchanted candle. Once it's lit, you can't help but tell the truth whether your asked or not,"
Everyone stared at her dumbly.
"If I lit this candle, you will all tell me your deepest darkest secrets without me asking you to," Cylia said.
"OH!" Everyone said.
She giggled.
"Now, Miss Granger, who is smarter?" Cylia teased.
"You," Hermione mumbled.
"Too freakin' right!" Cylia said.
"OK, so how many Aurors should we hire?" Sirius asked.
"Let's ask Dumbledore first." Stacey said.
"Sure. Now, everyone in bed! NOW!" Cylia roared.
Everyone laughed.
"Yes mommy dearest," Hermione mumbled.
Cylia gasped and glared.
"You shall not speak to your elders that way, Miss. Granger! FIFTY BILLION POINTS FROM GRYFFINDOR!" Cylia shouted.
Then her face turned blood red and her muscles were started to hurt from containing laughter.
She couldn't help it any longer... She laughed.
~*~
Cylia couldn't sleep so she angrily threw her legs over her bed, grabbing her robe and putting it on, she went downstairs.
She saw Ginny with her head flat on a table with a candle on it and her shoulders were shaking.
"Ginny?"
Ginny jumped and wiped her tears.
She put on a weak smile. "Hello Cylia," She waved a hand gesturing a chair beside her.
Cylia sat down.
Ginny had a sad, dazed look in her eyes and Cylia placed a comforting arm on Ginnys' arm.
Ginny flung her arms around Cylia and cried.
Cylia decided to go into sister-mode. She let Ginny soak her robes and nightdress till Ginny finally fell asleep.
"Poor girl,"
Cylia jumped at that cold, sarcastic snarl.
"Keith," Cylia nodded stiffly.
Keith Darans, a Death Eater who was nineteen and used to be friends with Cylia walked up to her, his wand pointed.
"How did you get in here?" She hissed.
"More like, why are you here, Cylia?" He asked angrily.
"Look, Keith, I know you and I used to date and used to be friends, but people change." Cylia said.
Cylia shook Ginny awake.
"Ginny, get out of here. Go to your room," Cylia said.
Ginny groggily went to her room, oblivious to the fact that Keith was there.
"Keith.. Why are you here? How are you here? And when did you get here?" Cylia asked.
"One: To try to get through your thick skull that you belong in the Dark Lords' presence. Two: I'm not answering that. Three: I got here about ten minutes ago." He answered.
"Well, I'm not going back." She sneered.
He grabbed both her arms and hissed, "Oh I think you are,"
She started screaming.
(A/N: Should I leave it here? Nah... not long enough!)
Harry and Stacey got there before anybody else.
"Let go of me, Keith! You can tell DAD that I'm not going back! LET ME GO!" She spat.
Harry rushed forward and grabbed Keith.
Keith Disapperated.
"I thought you can't Apperate OR Disapperated on Hogwarts grounds!" Cylia panted.
"You can't." Hermione appeared.
Cedric ran to Cylia and hugged her.
"Question is, how did Voldemort turn on the Apperating barriers?" Ginny asked.
"I really don't know. That's it, right now I'm going to the Aurors head quarters and fetch up some Aurors to guard. Aliza, you come with me. Meanwhile, you all to fetch up the students and get them in the Great Hall. Classes will be canceled tomorrow. No student is permitted to leave the Great Hall." Cylia walked upstairs and returned in a pair of Muggle Levi's flared hip huggers and a red halter. Her red curls were curlier than ever and it was hanging past her shoulders.
Aliza was the only one in the common room when she returned.
"Let's go," Cylia said.
Aliza nodded and Apperated.
Once the girls reached a large black building in the middle of no where, Cylia tapped her foot impatiently.
"Can I help you?"
Cylia sharply turned around and saw a male in his late twenty's with sandy blonde hair with brown highlights. He had blue eyes and was about 6'2.
"Erm... Yes. I'm Cylia Riddle and this is my friend Aliza. We're from-" Cylia started but the man cut her off.
"Yes I know. From Hogwarts. Albus told me about this special 'bond' a group of you share. What do you need?"
"Well, a Death Eater came and attacked about twenty minutes ago. Nobody was hurt. But we don't have enough security. We need some well-trained Aurors. One girl has been possessed. One boy has been put into a coma. And another girl was snatched up late last night. We need you help." Cylia put on her puppy eyes and batted her eyelashes.
"Cylia, those puppy eyes and batting your eye lashes have NEVER worked on me," He said.
"OH MY GOSH! MAX!" She shrieked.
"Who is Max?" Aliza asked.
"He used to live down the street when I was living with Ced. Not to mention he baby sat me." Cylia shuddered.
Max grinned.
"OK, let's go inside. They're some really good Aurors here. Some of them are so good they are in danger and had to be presumed dead." Max said leading them inside the large black building.
Its walls were a dark shade of beige and there were a ton of desks.
"So you're saying some are known dead to everyone else? Name one person," Cylia said.
"Carmen Lilz." He said.
"No way! That slut is still alive!?" Aliza screeched.
"That slut is my fiancée." Max smirked.
Aliza blushed.
"Did I hear my name?" Carmen walked up to them.
"Yes you did. Hey, Slut." Aliza smirked.
"Hey you Muggle wicked witch from the west." Carmen sneered.
"OK! Enough with the name calling." Cylia said.
Everyone laughed.
"It's good to see you," Carmen said.
"Yea. Same here." Aliza said.
Aliza and Carmen were friends, but didn't talk.
Aliza was upset about Carmens' "death" but didn't dwell on it.
~*~
"So far we have six Aurors already at Hogwarts." Max said two hours later.
"What about this dude right here? Andrew Balsom?" Aliza suggested.
"He's one of the best. Sometimes he can panic, though." Max said.
"So? Put him on the list. OK, what about Nick Castal?" Cylia asked.
"He's twenty-two and he's also one of the best." Max said.
"Ok, we don't want to clear you out of all the best." Aliza joked.
"Sure we do," Cylia said casually but joking.
"Well aren't we the witty one?" Max asked.
Cylia smirked.
(A/N: I don't think I've ever said what Cylia looks like so here it is:
Cylia has red hair that stops at her chest. It's naturally curly. Brown eyes and cream colored skin.)
After another three hours, Aliza and Cylia went back to Hogwarts.
The time was 6:30 a.m. and Cylia was not sleepy.
Nobody was.
"So we got thirty Aurors here." Christina announced to the school.
"Yes, and we expect each and everyone of you to treat them with respect." Cylia added.
"Since when does Ickle Cylia talk about respect?" Max hollered.
"Shut it, Max!" Cylia yelled at him.
"ANYWAY! Before Cylia and Max started bickering, I was saying that no student is permitted to leave the Great Hall until the head master returns," Christina said.
Groans were heard.
"OK, you can go. Leave. Get killed or worse. I'm not stopping you. But maybe before you walk through those oak doors you should think with your brain and not your ignorance." Cylia said firmly.
"Look, we're only doing all these safety precautions because we care," Christina said, "Everybody understand?"
All the students nodded.
"Good." Cylia looked through the crowds hoping to see Cedric.
"Mr. Diggory is helping the Aurors patrol the forest," a first year Hufflepuff piped up.
"Thanks," Cylia said and walked towards the doors, but Alex Johnson grabbed her arm.
"You can let go now," She said smartly.
"Or what?" He hissed.
Cylia smirked and muttered something.
Alex was now standing in the middle of the great hall in bright pink boxers with neon yellow ducks.
"Sure does LIGHTEN the day, doesn't it?" Ginny called.
Everyone laughed.
Cylia smirked and walked outside and towards the forest.
She spotted Cedric.
"Hey there!" She said wrapping her arms around his waist from behind.
He stiffened but relaxed when he figured it was Cylia.
He turned around and started leaning down.
"CYLIA! I wanna talk to you for a sec." Sirius was running towards them.
She groaned.
"I'll see you later," She said to Cedric.
"You never told me what you and Christina did," Sirius said sitting down in the common room.
"Oh.....that....OK, here goes..."
*~* Flash Back *~*
"Christina, we really shouldn't be doing this!" Cylia giggled.
"Sure we can," Christina said.
Cylia and Christina Apperated from Hogsmeade to the Malfoy manor.
Christina and Cylia decked the place out in neon pink and baby blue.
"Let's go!" Cylia hissed as she heard noises from downstairs.
Christina and Cylia quickly Apperated to Hogsmeade.
*~* End of flashback *~*
"YOU DID THAT!?" Sirius exclaimed laughing.
"Did what?" Draco walked in.
Cylia and Sirius burst out laughing.
*~*
Ron and Hermione were walking hand in hand.
Ron was allowed to leave the Great Hall as long as there was a member of the special bond with him.
"You know something.. I saw Dennis and Natalie in the great hall today.. kissing.." Ron said.
"Aww" Hermione giggled.
"He needs a girl in his life!" Ron joked.
"Yeah, well I need a guy in my life." She said seriously.
"Oh?"
"Yes. And he should have red hair, blue eyes and he should also be tall." She teased.
"Mm hmm.. Well my dream girl would have to be smart. She has brown eyes, brown hair and she's petite." He grinned.
She laughed.
"Uh huh." She said and stood on her tiptoes to kiss him. (A/N: Revenge of the fluffy bunnies is sweet, isn't it Linkgirl?)
"Love you," she said.
"Love you, too." And he kissed her again.
*~*
Stacey and Harry were hanging out when a third year Ravenclaw walked up to them and batted his eyelashes at-
"Hello, Harry" he said.
Stacey made gagging noises.
"Uh er ummm I er hi." Harry stuttered.
"What's your name?" Stacey asked.
"Lance." He answered.
"Well, Lance, hate to break it to ya, but Harry has a girlfriend." Stacey said.
Lance looked insulted.
"Fine!" And he burst into tears and ran off.
"Eurgh! That's the first time a guy has EVER hit on me," Harry said disgusted.
"Eww." Stacey made more gagging noises.
"Must find Ginny!" Harry said and ran off.
Stacey laughed.
"What's so funny?" Oliver asked walking towards her.
She turned red and felt butterflies in her stomach.
"Ah er I errrrmmm a guy just hit on Harry.." Stacey said.
"Oh gross," Oliver said.
"I know!" Stacey said shaking her head.
"So, you and Hermione are close, huh?" Stacey asked, knowing that Oliver punched Malfoy for Hermione before.
"Ah.. We didn't talk much at school, but over the summer we kinda became like brother and sister." He said.
She felt relief spread through her body.
"Oh?" She replied, hoping that she didn't sound to excited.
She looked deep into his brown eyes and he found himself leaning down closer towards her.
Their lips touched light and soft at first. She kissed him and it deepened when Harry shouted, "I DO NOT WANT TO SEE OLIVER SNOGGING MY SISTER THANK YOU!"
Stacey jumped back and blushed.
"Well.. YOU KISS GINNY IN FRONT OF ME ALL THE TIME!" She countered.
He laughed, so did she.
"So are you two together now?" Harry asked.
"Yes," Oliver and Stacey said in unison and walked away holding hands.

FF.net is screwed so not all the reviews I got are showing up, but you know who you are and I love ya!

Cylia jumped at that cold, sarcastic snarl.
"Keith," Cylia nodded stiffly.
Keith Darans, a Death Eater who was nineteen and used to be friends with Cylia walked up to her, his wand pointed.
"How did you get in here?" She hissed.
"More like, why are you here, Cylia?" He asked angrily.
"Look, Keith, I know you and I used to date and used to be friends, but people change." Cylia said.
Cylia shook Ginny awake.
"Ginny, get out of here. Go to your room," Cylia said.
Ginny groggily went to her room, oblivious to the fact that Keith was there.
"Keith.. Why are you here? How are you here? And when did you get here?" Cylia asked.
"One: To try to get through your thick skull that you belong in the Dark Lords' presence. Two: I'm not answering that. Three: I got here about ten minutes ago." He answered.
"Well, I'm not going back." She sneered.
He grabbed both her arms and hissed, "Oh I think you are,"
She started screaming.
(A/N: Should I leave it here? Nah... not long enough!)
Harry and Stacey got there before anybody else.
"Let go of me, Keith! You can tell DAD that I'm not going back! LET ME GO!" She spat.
Harry rushed forward and grabbed Keith.
Keith Disapperated.
"I thought you can't Apperate OR Disapperated on Hogwarts grounds!" Cylia panted.
"You can't." Hermione appeared.
Cedric ran to Cylia and hugged her.
"Question is, how did Voldemort turn on the Apperating barriers?" Ginny asked.
"I really don't know. That's it, right now I'm going to the Aurors head quarters and fetch up some Aurors to guard. Aliza, you come with me. Meanwhile, you all to fetch up the students and get them in the Great Hall. Classes will be canceled tomorrow. No student is permitted to leave the Great Hall." Cylia walked upstairs and returned in a pair of Muggle Levi's flared hip huggers and a red halter. Her red curls were curlier than ever and it was hanging past her shoulders.
Aliza was the only one in the common room when she returned.
"Let's go," Cylia said.
Aliza nodded and Apperated.
Once the girls reached a large black building in the middle of no where, Cylia tapped her foot impatiently.
"Can I help you?"
Cylia sharply turned around and saw a male in his late twenty's with sandy blonde hair with brown highlights. He had blue eyes and was about 6'2.
"Erm... Yes. I'm Cylia Riddle and this is my friend Aliza. We're from-" Cylia started but the man cut her off.
"Yes I know. From Hogwarts. Albus told me about this special 'bond' a group of you share. What do you need?"
"Well, a Death Eater came and attacked about twenty minutes ago. Nobody was hurt. But we don't have enough security. We need some well-trained Aurors. One girl has been possessed. One boy has been put into a coma. And another girl was snatched up late last night. We need you help." Cylia put on her puppy eyes and batted her eyelashes.
"Cylia, those puppy eyes and batting your eye lashes have NEVER worked on me," He said.
"OH MY GOSH! MAX!" She shrieked.
"Who is Max?" Aliza asked.
"He used to live down the street when I was living with Ced. Not to mention he baby sat me." Cylia shuddered.
Max grinned.
"OK, let's go inside. They're some really good Aurors here. Some of them are so good they are in danger and had to be presumed dead." Max said leading them inside the large black building.
Its walls were a dark shade of beige and there were a ton of desks.
"So you're saying some are known dead to everyone else? Name one person," Cylia said.
"Carmen Lilz." He said.
"No way! That slut is still alive!?" Aliza screeched.
"That slut is my fiancée." Max smirked.
Aliza blushed.
"Did I hear my name?" Carmen walked up to them.
"Yes you did. Hey, Slut." Aliza smirked.
"Hey you Muggle wicked witch from the west." Carmen sneered.
"OK! Enough with the name calling." Cylia said.
Everyone laughed.
"It's good to see you," Carmen said.
"Yea. Same here." Aliza said.
Aliza and Carmen were friends, but didn't talk.
Aliza was upset about Carmens' "death" but didn't dwell on it.
~*~
"So far we have six Aurors already at Hogwarts." Max said two hours later.
"What about this dude right here? Andrew Balsom?" Aliza suggested.
"He's one of the best. Sometimes he can panic, though." Max said.
"So? Put him on the list. OK, what about Nick Castal?" Cylia asked.
"He's twenty-two and he's also one of the best." Max said.
"Ok, we don't want to clear you out of all the best." Aliza joked.
"Sure we do," Cylia said casually but joking.
"Well aren't we the witty one?" Max asked.
Cylia smirked.
(A/N: I don't think I've ever said what Cylia looks like so here it is:
Cylia has red hair that stops at her chest. It's naturally curly. Brown eyes and cream colored skin.)
After another three hours, Aliza and Cylia went back to Hogwarts.
The time was 6:30 a.m. and Cylia was not sleepy.
Nobody was.
"So we got thirty Aurors here." Christina announced to the school.
"Yes, and we expect each and everyone of you to treat them with respect." Cylia added.
"Since when does Ickle Cylia talk about respect?" Max hollered.
"Shut it, Max!" Cylia yelled at him.
"ANYWAY! Before Cylia and Max started bickering, I was saying that no student is permitted to leave the Great Hall until the head master returns," Christina said.
Groans were heard.
"OK, you can go. Leave. Get killed or worse. I'm not stopping you. But maybe before you walk through those oak doors you should think with your brain and not your ignorance." Cylia said firmly.
"Look, we're only doing all these safety precautions because we care," Christina said, "Everybody understand?"
All the students nodded.
"Good." Cylia looked through the crowds hoping to see Cedric.
"Mr. Diggory is helping the Aurors patrol the forest," a first year Hufflepuff piped up.
"Thanks," Cylia said and walked towards the doors, but Alex Johnson grabbed her arm.
"You can let go now," She said smartly.
"Or what?" He hissed.
Cylia smirked and muttered something.
Alex was now standing in the middle of the great hall in bright pink boxers with neon yellow ducks.
"Sure does LIGHTEN the day, doesn't it?" Ginny called.
Everyone laughed.
Cylia smirked and walked outside and towards the forest.
She spotted Cedric.
"Hey there!" She said wrapping her arms around his waist from behind.
He stiffened but relaxed when he figured it was Cylia.
He turned around and started leaning down.
"CYLIA! I wanna talk to you for a sec." Sirius was running towards them.
She groaned.
"I'll see you later," She said to Cedric.
"You never told me what you and Christina did," Sirius said sitting down in the common room.
"Oh.....that....OK, here goes..."
*~* Flash Back *~*
"Christina, we really shouldn't be doing this!" Cylia giggled.
"Sure we can," Christina said.
Cylia and Christina Apperated from Hogsmeade to the Malfoy manor.
Christina and Cylia decked the place out in neon pink and baby blue.
"Let's go!" Cylia hissed as she heard noises from downstairs.
Christina and Cylia quickly Apperated to Hogsmeade.
*~* End of flashback *~*
"YOU DID THAT!?" Sirius exclaimed laughing.
"Did what?" Draco walked in.
Cylia and Sirius burst out laughing.
*~*
Ron and Hermione were walking hand in hand.
Ron was allowed to leave the Great Hall as long as there was a member of the special bond with him.
"You know something.. I saw Dennis and Natalie in the great hall today.. kissing.." Ron said.
"Aww" Hermione giggled.
"He needs a girl in his life!" Ron joked.
"Yeah, well I need a guy in my life." She said seriously.
"Oh?"
"Yes. And he should have red hair, blue eyes and he should also be tall." She teased.
"Mm hmm.. Well my dream girl would have to be smart. She has brown eyes, brown hair and she's petite." He grinned.
She laughed.
"Uh huh." She said and stood on her tiptoes to kiss him. (A/N: Revenge of the fluffy bunnies is sweet, isn't it Linkgirl?)
"Love you," she said.
"Love you, too." And he kissed her again.
*~*
Stacey and Harry were hanging out when a third year Ravenclaw walked up to them and batted his eyelashes at-
"Hello, Harry" he said.
Stacey made gagging noises.
"Uh er ummm I er hi." Harry stuttered.
"What's your name?" Stacey asked.
"Lance." He answered.
"Well, Lance, hate to break it to ya, but Harry has a girlfriend." Stacey said.
Lance looked insulted.
"Fine!" And he burst into tears and ran off.
"Eurgh! That's the first time a guy has EVER hit on me," Harry said disgusted.
"Eww." Stacey made more gagging noises.
"Must find Ginny!" Harry said and ran off.
Stacey laughed.
"What's so funny?" Oliver asked walking towards her.
She turned red and felt butterflies in her stomach.
"Ah er I errrrmmm a guy just hit on Harry.." Stacey said.
"Oh gross," Oliver said.
"I know!" Stacey said shaking her head.
"So, you and Hermione are close, huh?" Stacey asked, knowing that Oliver punched Malfoy for Hermione before.
"Ah.. We didn't talk much at school, but over the summer we kinda became like brother and sister." He said.
She felt relief spread through her body.
"Oh?" She replied, hoping that she didn't sound to excited.
She looked deep into his brown eyes and he found himself leaning down closer towards her.
Their lips touched light and soft at first. She kissed him and it deepened when Harry shouted, "I DO NOT WANT TO SEE OLIVER SNOGGING MY SISTER THANK YOU!"
Stacey jumped back and blushed.
"Well.. YOU KISS GINNY IN FRONT OF ME ALL THE TIME!" She countered.
He laughed, so did she.
"So are you two together now?" Harry asked.
"Yes," Oliver and Stacey said in unison and walked away holding hands.

OK so I know this is an odd place to end it, but so what?
Thanks everyone who reviewed.
FF.net is screwed so not all the reviews I got are showing up, but you know who you are and I love ya!
OK, yes I was making fun of slash because I was trying to find some good Ginny/Harry stories and I saw a Ginny/Hermione Harry/Draco story and I wanted to puke.
I'll try to have chapter 21 up soon. OK, I know I said I was only going to make this a thirty to thirty five chapter story, but I've come up with more ideas, so it'll be longer than that.
)^.^)
Those are my friends Jaclyn, Thomas and Lila!
They like good reviews to munch on and flames for desert!
