TO BLOODLESS: I just wanted to tell Bloodless that since Paige is working
with other witches and wizards despite their different magic she knows she
can tell them about the Charmed Ones and it wouldn't be bragging seeing as
everyone there has magic and some people are very powerful. *cough* Harry
*cough* Dumbledore *cough*
She was being sarcastic (sorta) when she said the thing about her being pathetic. I say stuff like that and trust me no on actually thinks I'm pathetic because. well, I don't know really. It's the tone of voice I use. I say it- like she did- when I'm babbling or explaining something long. I don't really think I'm pathetic.
There was an aura around them and she could tell the Gryffindors could be trusted- seeing as they have lessons alone from what the books have said. Like I said she thinks she can trust them. Besides no one there even really knows about her kind of magic.
But thank you for liking my story and reviewing it. I hope this explanation helps a bit. If it doesn't sorry but I'm going to keep writing the same way. Sorry and READ ON!

Chapter 6*~~
Chances and Healing*~~
Paige rolled her eyes at Leo. "It was your idea," she said.
"Yes to have a family dinner," Leo snapped.
"Look, Remus is really nice!"
"I never said he wasn't but with Wyatt and his pranks along with the fact demons drop in and attack on their own schedule do you think he's safe? And what will he think?" Leo asked.
"For one, Remus can take care of himself. And besides, he's seen pretty harsh things. He is a werewolf!" Paige said in exasperation.
"What?! You never told u s he was a werewolf!" Piper said suddenly. Phoebe raised her eyebrows.
"Only on the full moon and other than that he's completely harmless. He is REALLY nice and I like him. Remus Lupin is a real gentleman!" Paige said heatedly.
"I said nothing," Phoebe defended.
"Remus Lupin?" Leo asked, his mood suddenly changed. "The Remus Lupin? Moony. Well, I know him. He pulled one over on Snape once. It was very funny. I guess he could deal with sudden attacks and God knows the practical jokes- he did used to pull them all the time."
"If I'd known all I had to do was tell you his last name I'd have done that sooner," Paige muttered. Piper and phoebe laughed. Wyatt bounded into the room.
"What's up sweetie?" piper asked.
"There's a doggy outside! Can I keep him? Huh, huh, huh?" asked Wyatt, jumping up and down. They sisters and Leo followed the little boy out back to see a shaggy black dog laying on the ground.
"It looks vicious," Phoebe said. "But kind of cute..."
"Can I keep it?" Wyatt repeated. Piper and Leo exchanged glances.
"If it doesn't attack anyone and if the owners don't come for it," Leo said.
"But it has a collar so someone may come for it and we'll have to put up signs around town," Piper said. Wyatt cheered and hugged the dog. It perked up and sniffed Wyatt. Then settled back down lazily.
"What's its name?" asked Phoebe.
"Just a second," Wyatt said. He flipped the shiny dog bone dog tag on its neck around. All it said in curved letters was Padfoot. "His name is Padfoot!"
"Odd name," said Paige as she led the way back inside, the dog trailing after them.
********************************************************************
Paige orbed into her office at Hogwarts to grab a book she had taken out of the library. It was Friday. A great day in Paige's opinion. She had her favorite class on Fridays. Gryffindor sixth years.
Paige set off down the corridor, trekking the familiar path to the library. She heard a cold, sneering voice. She rolled her eyes. 'Malfoy,' she thought bitterly. 'No doubt fighting with Harry, Ron and Hermione. Maybe Ginny's with them.'
She rounded the corner to see Malfoy with Crabbe staring icily at Harry, who stood in front of Ginny. No one else was in sight. Malfoy lunged at Harry and punched his ribs repeatedly.
Ginny screamed and hexed Malfoy with great aim. He flew off of Harry. Crabbed tackled Ginny down. Harry raised his wand, muttered something, and a gold light hit Crabbe away.
Harry's strength seemed gone with that and he fell in unconsciousness.
************************************************************************
Harry sat in the Gryffindor common room very early that day. It was too early for normal people to be up. It startled him to hear footsteps on the stairs. He turned around to see Ginny. "Hey, Harry," Ginny said. She sat down next to him on the two seating couch.
Harry could smell the cocoanut conditioner in her hair. Like pina colatas. He fought to control his feelings. It was bad enough he had already kissed her. Ginny turned quickly to look at him.
"What?" he asked.
"Harry, you've been avoiding me ever since we last kissed," Ginny said, her voice cracking. "Look, if you want to forget it happened just tell me straight out, don't dodge around me!"
Harry's jaw dropped. He just stared at the pretty red head. She met his gaze with tearful blue eyes. "I.Ginny, I never, I," Harry's voice died in his throat. "Ginny, I like you a lot. I really do! I just, you're Ron's sister. He'd kill me, he'd hate me! I. I want to be with you but I' afraid. It would also put our friendship in jeopardy."
"Ron will have to get over it. Besides, if we're not meant to be our friendship will last. What's love if you never take a chance?" she asked quietly. Harry stared at her. Suddenly he felt the electricity become unbearable. He kissed her.
They leaned back on the couch, just exploring each others mouths. They sat there snogging for a long while. So long that someone came down. There was a gasp and the two pulled apart quickly.
"Bloody hell!" exclaimed Hermione. (u thought it was Ron, didn't ya?) Harry gaped and Ginny chewed her lip.
"It's not what it looks like," Ginny said, glancing feverishly at Harry. "I attacked Harry- seduced him. I-he-I-"
Ginny sprang up from the couch and rushed out of the portrait.
"Don't tell Ron," Harry said before dashing after her. He caught up with her in a corridor near the library. "Ginny!" She turned around.
"I-"
"It's nothing. Love's nothing without a chance in it. You're right. There is nothing without the chance because that's what love is- a chance," Harry said. Ginny and Harry stared at each other. Just stared.
Draco Malfoy's cool sneer met their ears. "Potty, Weasel Girl."
"What do you want?" Harry snapped- whirling around.
"Meeting to have secret affairs?" he asked.
"I see only Crabbe's here," Harry said, moving in front of Ginny. "And here I thought Goyle was your boyfriend. Guess it's this oaf." Draco's eyes narrowed with fury.
"Say it again and the pathetic little mudblood lover gets it," Draco threatened. Harry glared.
"I see only Crabbe's here. And here I thought Goyle was your boyfriend. Guess it's this oaf," Harry repeated. Draco lunged at Harry- punching his broken ribs again and again. Harry felt pain over take him.
Ginny hexed Malfoy and made him fly off. She rushed to his side as Crabbe lunged. Harry muttered something she didn't understand but Crabbe flew away against the stone wall. Harry smirked as he fell unconscious.
Paige flew out of the neighboring corridor and crouched down beside him. She glared over at Malfoy and Crabbe. "Detention for you two and twenty points from Slytherin a piece," Paige snapped.
"We have to get Harry to the Hospital Wing," Ginny moaned. Paige nodded. "But I know it isn't safe to move him in his state," Ginny whispered.
"I'll orb us there," Paige said immediately.
"You can't. Hogwarts is Apparation resistant and you said orbing was the same thing," Ginny said.
"Well, I've been orbing around for some time now and it works," Paige said. "Grab my arm." Just as Ginny touched her arm Paige losed her eyes and the vanished with a glisten of blue orbs.
They reappeared in the Hospital Wing. Harry was laying on a bed and Ginny and Paige were standing over him. "That was amazing Professor Mathews!" Ginny whispered in awe. Paige laughed.
"I remember when I couldn't do it," Paige muttered. "Leo had work forever on it."
"What's the matter?" asked Madam Pomfrey briskly.
"Malfoy punched Potter repeatedly in the ribs," Paige said in a teacher like manner.
"Oh dear," Madam Pomfrey said hoarsely.
"Is he going to be okay?" Ginny prodded as Madam Pomfrey finished looking hi over.
"So much pain on his ribs forced him into a comma. There's a chance- a miniscule one, but a chance all the same- that he'll never come out of it. All we can do is wait," Madam Pomfrey said firmly.
"I can do more," Paige said.
"Professor Mathews! You are not a trained Mediwitch! You are not even a witch as we are. I have yet to see you do magic! You cannot endanger my patients with some odd spell or potion you've concocted!" Madam Pomfrey burst out.
"I'm not a witch like you. I'm not even a whole witch. I'm part whitelighter which mean I heal," Paige said, glaring at the nurse. She moved quickly to Harry and placed her hands on his chest.
Madam Pomfrey made a sputtering noise. But before she could act Paige closed her eyes and let her healing flow though the battered boy. In a shine of blue Harry's eyes fluttred open.
"What happened?" he mumbled.
"Paige healed you," Ginny said quietly. "Are you okay?"
"I feel great. Better than I have in a long time," Harry said. He grinned thankfully at Paige. She smiled with understanding. Ginny hugged Harry tightly.
************************************************************************
Paige plopped down at the Head Table. She didn't glance up when someone sat next to her. "Hello to you two," said Remus's smooth voice. Paige looked up quickly. She noticed immediately his hair was no longer specked with grey. It was a complete sandy brown.
"Sorry, didn't see you," she apologized. He smiled at the pretty witch.
"I heard what you did for Harry," Remus said casually as he started eating. Paige went red.
"It was nothing," she mumbled.
"Yes to you it was nothing but to Harry and his friends- myself included- it was a great deal more. I dare say you'll be getting thanks from his godfather when he hears," Remus said truthfully.
"His godfather?"
"You'll have to wait," Remus said sternly. Snape's presence was sensed by them both. They turned around. "Yes?"
"The muggle and the werewolf. Neither of you belong here," Snape said icily.
"Obviously you haven't heard of Paige's healing magic," Remus said, his voice equally cold.
"Watch it Mathews, Lupin. Don't want the kiddies to find out you shag," Snape hissed. Remus stood up quickly, wand out. Paige was next to him.
"Shut-up," Remus said. "Apologize to Paige."
"I don't think I will, werewolf," Snape spat. Paige glared at him.
"You think a werewolf is bad? Try having your sister as Queen of the underworld and her husband as the Source of All Evil," Paige said with unnerving gcasualty. She quickly thrust her knee into his groin. As he doubled over she quickly dug her elbow into his back in a snappy movement. She rolled her eyes and walked calmly out of the hall.
Remus stared dumbstruck before bursting out laughing at Snape lying curled on the ground. "I think you've underestimated the new girl, Snapey." Remus walked out of the hall still laughing.
All of the hall's eyes were fixed on where the scene had just been. Snape was led to the hospital wing. Most of the Gryffindors, Ravenclaws, and Hufflepuffs were in fits of laughter. Even some of the good humored Slytherins were laughing. Hey, not ALL Slytherins were evil.
Remus stopped Paige in the hall near her classroom- which happened to be the only one in the corridor apart from Remus's.
"That was quite amusing," Remus said, eyeing her up. She grinned.
"Rage gets the better of me on occasions," Paige said shrugging.
"Well, it seemed oddly casual," Remus said.
"Guess it did." They stared at each other. Remus moved closer. There was hardly air between their lips. Suddenly the Great Hall started pouring out and the distant sound made them hurry to their classrooms, remembering the sensation of being so close.
A/N Sorry it took so long, I had major writer's block. Next chapter is about the dinner!!!!!!!!!!!! I hope u liked it! Please tell me what you think!!
