Chapter 14: A New Obstacle

As they headed up toward the Gryffindor common room, Eric began to explain to Amy how he got there and who helped them. Amy paid attention but was more focused on snogging Eric when they finally got up to the common room. They had to be extra careful in case they might bump into a teacher or Flich.

When they finally reached the common room, Chris and Sam were waiting for them.

"I see Brett came through for you." Chris said while laughing, "I thought he'd screw it up he can be a little umm… absent minded at times."

"Thank you Chris." Amy said while giving Chris the biggest hug she could muster.

"Yeah thanks Chris I really owe you." Eric said, and he meant it too.

"Chris that was really good of you." Said Sam from behind him right before she reached over and kissed his cheek.

Chris blushed and said, "It was nothing I'm just glad I could help."

The Four of them then talked endlessly into the night until they realized it was 8:00 and some students would begin to wake up.

"Come on Eric you can hid in my dormitory." Amy said as she motioned for him to follow her.

"Wait guys," Sam began "I don't mean to break up your fun here but get realistic. I mean I'm happy for both of you, really I am, but it wont be long until Durmstrang notices that Eric is gone and this will most likely be the first place they look."

"I know but…" Amy began but was rudely stopped by the opening to the common room fling open. Quickly Sam took out Amy's invisibility cloak that she had hidden under the coach and swung it over Eric's head not a moment too late.

"Miss Potter," It was Professor McGonagall "Follow me please."

Amy followed hesitantly but as she approached the doorway she mouthed to Sam 'Keep Eric in our room'. She then began to notice that McGonagall was leading her to Dumbeldore's office. As she entered the room she found Dumbeldore and Draco Malfoy.

"Sit down Miss Potter." Dumbeldore said as he motioned to a nearby chair. "Now I assume you know why you are here?"

Amy shook her head; at the time she really didn't know what was going on.

"Yes you do, don't lie!" Draco said as he moved toward her.

"Draco," Dumbeldore said calmly "There is no need for that. Now, Miss Potter we were recently informed by the Headmaster of Durmstrang that Eric has been missing since yesterday afternoon, assuming your relationship with Mr. Malfoy we believe you know where he is?" Dumbeldore had a usual glint in his eye, Amy assumed he already knew the answer.

"Yes, please tell us I am eager to talk to him." Draco said in a cold drawling voice.

"No sir I have not heard from him since he left." Amy lied quickly. She didn't like that lie paticular however. She had no problem lying to them, it was the fact that they might think Eric didn't care about her and didn't even bother to write to her since he got to Durmstrang.

"Very well, you may go."

"But Professor!" Draco insisted, "She is obviously lying!"

"I trust her." Dumbeldore said.

"You'll be sorry you didn't turn him into me now girl" Draco said to Amy as he left.

"Wait Miss Potter." Dumbeldore said softly after Draco left "I know for a fact that Eric is in your dormitory. I saw you sneak him in last night."

"Sir…I'm…"

"No need for apologies. It was probably best for you to not tell Draco where he is. But in the meantime I strongly insist you urge Mr. Malfoy to leave immediately before Draco comes in with a search team for him."

"Thank you sir." Amy said quickly as she left.

When Amy got into the dormitory she quickly filled in Chris, Sam, and Eric about whats going on. Soon, they devised a plan for Eric to sneak through to Honeydukes and stay there for the time being.

Quickly Amy led him to the secret passageway in the school but before she got a chance to kiss him good-bye Eric said:

"Come with me."

"What?" Amy asked a little shocked.

"Come with me, then we can be together forever."

"Eric…I…it could never work out…I mean I want to…but" Amy said she really wasn't quite sure how to respond.

Quickly Eric grabbed hold of both of her hands and said "Please Amy."

Amy took a deep breath and said "Yes Eric, I'll come with you." And she followed him through the secret passageway.
