Harry: Let's sit down in that empty classroom.
*They form a circle of desks and sit down *
Audrey: So, where to begin?
Ginny: What do you want to know?
Harry: The truth would be nice for once.
Audrey: Did you tell Dean to tell Harry that he was supposed to meet me in the library yesterday?
Ginny: (Feeling trapped and nervous) Well yes I did.
Harry: WHAT??? Ginny, why would you do that?
Ginny: Wait, just let me explain.
Audrey: Go right ahead.
Ginny: Well, I knew that Audrey and Harry broke up. And since both of you hang out with Ron, Hermione, and me, I didn't want there to be any uncomfortable tension around us. So, I thought that maybe if I could get you two alone together in the same room, you might talk with each other and possibly resolve some of your differences. I was hoping you could maybe be friends again for our group's sake. I was planning on both of you to receive messages saying that you wanted to meet each other in the library.
Audrey: But you never talked to me about going to the library yesterday.
Ginny: I know. See I had gotten distracted during the day and never got the chance to talk to someone so they would tell you to go down to the library. See, the plan was for two other people who weren't really involved or attached to our group to pass on the messages so it would be more casual and not suspicious.
Harry: So why did you deny the entire thing when we first asked you?
Ginny: I was embarrassed. After I realized my plan had failed, I hoped that it would blow over unnoticed, but it didn't. Also, after seeing how angry you were, I was scared that you might get mad and not understand that I was only trying to help. I'm ashamed now for what I did and realize how stupid it was to interfere and pressure you to talk and reconcile. I should have let you figure it out by yourselves.
Harry: I understand what you are saying Ginny, and its very believable. But it's still suspicious that on the same night I was told to be in the library, someone would pose as me in the common room. In order for that person's plan to work, he or she would have to have made sure that I would be somewhere else and out of the way. So, it's very possible that this person could have been involved in getting me out of the common room last night because it would be too risky to just hope that I would be gone.
Ginny: I see what you are saying, but isn't it also possible that while this imposter was trying to set up a scheme to get you out of the common room found out that you would be gone. If someone had casually mentioned that you were going to the library, this person could have used it as an opportunity to proceed with his plan.
Audrey: That could very well be possible. We are sorry for overreacting. I'm just glad we were able to talk to you and sort some things out. Now all we have to do is find out who the impostor is.
Harry: Thank you, Ginny. That's all we need to know. You can go now.
Ginny got up and walked towards the door.
Audrey: Ginny, I am sorry for making assumptions about Dean and you. You were right. I don't know the facts. I won't mention it again.
Ginny: Don't worry about it. I understand why you did it. Bye.
She turned around and left the room. When she was out of sight, she broke into a run and made her way back to the common room. Once she reached the Fat Lady, she muttered the password and quickly went inside.
Ginny: (Whispering to an unknown person) Wow that was close. We were almost discovered. We got to be a little more careful next time.
***
A couple days later, Harry and Ron are sitting in the common room play chess, while Hermione and Ginny talk by the fire. Midway through their game, Audrey climbs through the portrait hole and makes her way over to Harry.
Audrey: Can I talk to you for a second? Alone? (Glancing over at Ron)
Harry: Sure, can we just finish our game quick?
Audrey: It will just take a second, so can you just take a short break?
Harry: All right, Ron, do you mind?
Ron: No, you can go, but when you get back get ready for a lesson of ass kicking in chess.
Harry: Is that a threat?
Ron: No, it's a fact. Even Trelawney could predict this.
Harry: Whatever. (Turns and follows Audrey to an empty corner)
Audrey: Actually, I don't need to talk; I just need to give you something.
Harry: Why do we have to be alone then?
Audrey: I just don't want anybody else seeing what I give you.
Harry: Ok, so what is it?
Audrey: It's a letter. It's something I can't express out loud so I wrote it down instead.
She hands him a sealed envelope.
Audrey: Read it when you are alone, and don't let anyone else see it.
Harry: Okay.
Audrey heads up to her dormitory while Harry rejoins Ron.
Ron: What was that all about?
Harry: Oh nothing. Let's just finish our game.
Ron: Don't you mean, let me finish you.
Harry: Oh no my friend, you are sadly mistaken. See, when I get done with you, you'll be crying for your mommy like a little girl.
Ron: I don't think so. I'm going to burn you so bad they are going to need the fire department to put you out.
Harry: You are the only one who is going to get put out. Put out by ME!
Ron: Think again. I am going to wipe the floor with you so bad, it'll be clean for once.
Harry: Oh yeah, well, I am going to cream you so bad, people are going to be pouring you in their coffee.
Ron: I hope you are hungry, because I am about to open a big can of whoop- ass!
Harry: What do you want on your tombstone because I am going to bury you.
Ron: Get ready to bow down because I am the king of chess.
Harry: You are the one going down. You are going so far down, you'll be chilling with the polar bears in Antarctica.
Ron: Well, I am going to jump over your little black pieces so fast; you'll think I'm playing leapfrog.
Harry: Ummm...Ron? That's checkers, not chess.
Ron: Oops, I guess I got caught up in the moment.
Harry: It's all right. Let's stop talking and just get back to our game.
30 minutes later.
Ron: Checkmate!
Harry: Oh man, you've got to be kidding me. I was so close this time.
Ron: Close, but no cigar. How many times have I beaten you now?
Harry: Too many. Remind me never to play chess with you again.
Ron: Sure. Wow, look at the time. We've been playing for so long it's already time for dinner.
Harry: Are you serious? We've been playing for over an hour. I can't believe our games last so long. I don't think I have the patience to ever play another one.
Ron: Yeah me to. So, are you hungry?
Harry: Yeah, let's go get something to eat.
The two leave the common room and head down to the Great Hall.
Harry: So, what do you want to do after dinner?
Ron: I don't know. Want to play chess?
Harry: All right.
***
After dinner, Ron beat Harry in yet another game of chess. After being humiliated and beaten once again, Harry went up to the dormitory before Ron could start taunting him.
Harry: That is the last time I play chess for the rest of this year.
He makes his way over to his bed and notices something small poking his leg from inside his pocket.
Harry: I can't believe it. I totally forget about Audrey's letter.
He takes out the letter and begins to read it.
Dear Harry,
I am writing this letter to express some feelings and thoughts I have been having lately. I know that our relationship and situation has been quite confusing and complicated recently, especially after the truth or dare incident. I feel that our relationship has greatly improved since then because we have been working together to try and figure out who used the Polyjuice potion. I also sense that there are a lot of things in our relationship that are uncertain and aren't clear. So, I am writing this letter to make sure that we are on the same page and feel the same way. I don't know about you, but I get the impression that we might be heading towards dating again because of how well we are getting along and how much time we are spending together. I don't think this is a good idea though. I'm not sure how you feel about this, but I don't think we should go back down that road again. I am very happy just being friends right now, and I don't want to complicate things or risk being mad at each other again. You are one of my best friends here, and I don't want to lose our friendship if we start going out and it doesn't last. I am very sure of my feelings and I don't think I'll change my mind, so I think its best that we don't further discuss this and just go on being friends. I hope you feel the same way.
Sincerely,
Audrey
Harry folded up the letter and put it in his trunk. Before he had time to even think about the letter, Ron walked into the dormitory with a worried expression on his face.
Harry: What's the matter Ron?
Ron: I need a favor from you.
Harry: Sure, what do you need?
Ron: I need to borrow your invisibility cloak.
Harry: Okay, but if you don't mind me asking, why do you need to use it?
Ron: Well I left something in the library earlier and I need to get it, but its after hours and we aren't allowed out of the common room. So I need the invisibility cloak to sneak out and go get what I left in the library. It's urgent.
Harry: All right. (Heads over to his trunk) What did you leave down there anyway?
Ron: I'd rather not say.
Harry: Okay, whatever. (Opens up his trunk.)
Ron: (Seeing the surprised look on Harry's face) What's wrong?
Harry: My invisibility cloak, it's gone!
Dun dun dun!!!!! Stay tuned for the thrilling conclusion of our Love Triangles trilogy.
