A/N: I have to say this....I don't own the song "My Immortal." Yes that song is appearing in this chapter.

Chapter 8


Seanny looked at the door and saw her best friend, Kristine. "KRISTINE!" she yelled. "I thought you weren't coming."

"What and miss my best bud's Sweet Sixteen? I think not! I would never do that to you. I told Chris to not say anything about it at all," her best friend replied.

Seanny looked at Chris and took the baseball. There was a little grin on her little face. "Seitz…heads up!" she yelled and threw the ball to her friend who was caught off-guard. The ball went flying and Chris caught it.

"Hey! What was that for?" he asked.

Seanny gave an extremely annoyed sigh and then giggled. "Never mind Chris."

Kristine had a little thing in her hand that looked like a microphone.

"Kris, are you holding a mic?" Seanny asked.

Oliver gave Seanny a hug from behind. "I actually invited her and told Chris not to tell her."

"Ahem," Zach interrupted. "With my help."

Oliver glared at his former archrival. "Okay with Ontell's help."

Seanny shook her head. "You know I actually knew that he would help you out."

Zach rolled his eyes. "I hate that she's gifted with foresight," he thought.

Suddenly there was a scream. It wasn't anyone from the party that's for sure. It seemed that someone was calling out a name. And that name strangely sounded like someone yelling "Oliver!!"

Seanny froze. It can't be her. It just can't. She didn't want her Sweet Sixteen ruined at all.

Her boyfriend looked at her with the same expression she had on her face. They were worried that Cassandra had just come to Hogwarts.

Cassandra, despite her strong Austrian accent, was in Ravenclaw and Professor Flitwick surely has given her the password to get inside. The door opened and some figure came out from inside the doorway.

It was Cassandra.

"Cassie…uhh…hi," Oliver stuttered.

"How did you get in here my little Ollie Wally?" Cassandra said in an annoying Austrian accent.

"Because it's…"

"My birthday," Seanny came out. "Hello. I'm Seanny Diggory and you must be Cassandra if I'm not mistaken," she said politely. Inside Seanny was extremely jealous of Cassandra.

Zach seemed a little entertained at watching Seanny get jealous. He hasn't seen her like this since he went out with Jennifer when they were at WWMS. "I wonder if she's going to punch Cassie?" he thought.

"Ja," Cassandra replied. "I'm her."

Seanny had her wand in her hand. She was so tempted to hex Cassie. But she didn't. Then she felt a tap on her shoulder.

It was Kristine. She sensed her best friend's jealousy and thought of a way to get her to stop thinking about it. "Hey Seanny. Why don't you just sing 'My Immortal'?" she asked.

"Okay. Hand me the mic," she said, surrendering to her friend's kindness.

Kristine turned on the Karaoke machine and music started playing. Seanny was sitting on a stool in the middle of the Common Room with her microphone.

"I'm so tired of being here Suppressed by all my childish fears And if you have to leave I wish that you would just leave 'Cause your presence still lingers here And it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal This pain is just too real There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears I held your hand through all of these years But you still have All of me

You used to captivate me
By your resonating life
Now I'm bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me

These wounds won't seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me

I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone
But though you're still with me
I've been alone all along" she sang out as loud as she can. Oliver was staring at her concerned when she sang out at "But though you're still with me I've been alone all along."

She continued singing the last chorus of the song. "When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears
When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears
I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me"

She stopped singing and there were tears in her eyes.

"Why is she crying?" Oliver thought to himself.

Cassandra was playing with Oliver's hair in a seductive way and he didn't notice it at all.

Seanny was looking at them, sadness in her eyes. She was keeping something inside her.

"Seanny!" Oliver got up and ran to her.

Seanny turned around and didn't speak to him. She was still crying.
