-Surprise-
Saira was allowed to leave the next morning and Dmitri was so happy to see her that he wouldn't leave her side. She was happy to learn that McGonagall didn't give out much homework because of the quidditch match. This made Saira have homework for only one class, Charms. Most of the teachers heard about what happened and were easy on her.
During Potions a first year came in
"Yes?" Snape asked in his icy tone
"I'm supposed to get Miss Trinity" the kid squeaked
Reluctantly he let Saira leave. The kid told Saira to go see Dumbledore. When she arrived he was on the ladder to his bookshelf.
"Professor?" she said waiting in the doorway
"Please, take a seat Saira"
He climbed down and sat in his large armchair as Saira took a seat across.
"Do you have any idea why I've asked you to come here?" he asked looking over the top of his half-moon spectacles
"I'm assuming it's my vision"
"Partially but I will get to rest in a moment. I was informed form Legolas that over the summer you had a few similar occurrences"
"Yes but I didn't black out for two weeks"
"I see. I feel that the danger around you and Harry is growing"
"I know" Saira said
"Legolas told me of your feeling. I want you to know that I believe you in every aspect."
"Harry doesn't think so"
"I know. Now for the other part of why I asked you here" he said quickly to change the subject "I understand you and Legolas are quite an item now"
Saira bit her lip not wanting to answer
"I realize this is probably not something you want to talk with an old man about"
"Just a little bit" Saira stirred in her seat
"I want to warn you"
"About Umbridge. Forgive me Professor but I've been warned many times" Saira interrupted
"I know but I don't think it has sunk in" he said "Saira you must understand that eventually Dolores Umbridge will find a way around those age old laws and I fear your greatest protection will be forced to leave"
"What do you want me to do then?"
"I would like you to follow her rules. When you train, you must go straight to your room after. There will be no more unneeded visits."
Saira opened her mouth to protest but Dumbledore held his hand up
"I know this is going to make you angry but it must be done. I should have allowed it in the first place but things were happening. Anyway, he will be around and there is always the breaks"
"Yes, professor"
"However he asked to have a talk with you before this takes effect"
Saira nodded and left. She ran down the hall to Legolas' room.
"Miss Trinity!"
Saira stopped and turned around swiftly
"Yes, Professor Umbridge?"
"Where are you headed?"
"I'm looked for Liz" saira lied
"Why?"
"Well considering I was unconscious for two weeks I need to catch up on some work" Saira said "so bye"
"Wait!" But Saira ran and turned the corner ignoring her. She walked into Legolas' room
"Did you know? Is that what you wanted to talk to me about?" Saira yelled throwing her bag down speaking rapidly in Elvish
Legolas was working out and didn't stop
"What are you talking about?" he said calmly.
"Dumbledore-"
"-Oh well no to answer both questions. Albus spoke to me this morning about that"
"So.what did you want to talk to me about?" Saira asked
Legolas stopped and sat down
"During the summer I took you to Hyrule"
"I remember. I sort of freaked out"
"Well Vienne contacted me and wants you to come for Christmas. She especially misses Dmitri. However I don't think he'd go without you"
"I don't think I should. Link sent me a letter saying guilds were waiting for an unguarded moment."
"I thought of that. That's why I took a page form Albus' book. Vienne is going to have a Fidelus Charm so that if you decide to go, you wont be in danger"
"I do miss Hyrule. You cant live somewhere for a good portion of your life and not miss it"
"Is that a yes?" he asked
"Only if you're going and if I'll get to see Link"
"You will. I promise"
"Then okay. Does Dmitri know?"
"Not yet"
"Can I tell him?"
"Sure. You should go before Dolores stops by"
"Right well I'll see you"
Saira walked over to Legolas and gave him a kiss on the cheek but that wasn't enough for Legolas. He cupped her face and kissed her passionately. Saira returned the kiss over and over again.
"So-I-guess-you're-not-happy-about-Dumbledore's-request?" Saira said between kisses. Legolas paused to answer.
"I may not be happy about it but he's right"
He kissed her again
"Okay go or I wont be able to stop myself."
Saira gave him one last long kiss before she reluctantly pulled away. Once Saira got in the hall she realized she'd have to think of a different thing for Legolas' birthday.
"You do it"
"I'm not gonna do it. You never said anything like that"
Saira was fighting with Liz about who was supposed to get Legolas out of the room
"You said you were going to help me," Saira said
"I did but I don't know what to say. Make Dmitri do it"
"Okay. Dmitri"
Dmitri looked up. He was lying on the couch in the common room.
"Yeah love?"
Saira went over and sat down next to him
"Can you do me a favor?"
"Depends on what it is"
"I need you to get Legolas out of his room for at least 20 minutes."
"What's in it for me?"
"I'll keep helping you in Potions"
"How?"
"Don't push your luck" Saira said
"Okay be back in a few"
Saira and Liz followed close behind but hid around the corner when Dmitri got to the portrait. They couldn't hear what was said but it worked because they walked off. When they were out of sight, Saira and Liz ran into Legolas' room with a box full of decorations. Saira pulled out her wand and Liz looks strangely at her
"You're actually going to use your wand?" Liz asked
"Are you kidding? It was poking me," Saira said throwing the wand on his desk. "We're Elves. We don't have time for wands" Saira joked
Within minutes the room was decorated with banners and all sorts things they'd bought in Hogsmeade. Saira put hundreds of candles all over the room.
"Wanna see something cool?" Saira asked as the room slowly had less light coming through the window.
"Yeah" Saira put her hands together with the palms up. Slowly a ball of fire appeared floating above her hands lighting the room. She closed her eyes and the ball of fire burst into hundreds of tiny flames. Her eyes remained closed but the tiny flames began spiraling from her hands to the ceiling. Liz stood back watching with bright eyes. Saira then made the flames spiral around her making it look like a thousand glowing Faeries were flying around her. Finally each flame floated toward a candle. Saira opened her eyes and looked at her friend for a reaction.
"Now that was cool," Liz said
"It was, wasn't it? Hey did you bring the books?"
"Yeah, on the table"
Saira looked at her watch
"Dmitri will be done soon"
"Everything looks good. Too bad we wont be able to see his reaction." Liz said
"Too bad I can't be here to celebrate with him."
Saira propped the books up so he could see them. Before they left, Liz left a small box of her own without Saira's knowing. It was a locked with a picture of Saira inside. They walked out just as they heard footsteps coming down the hall. They made it around the corner and watched Legolas go in. Liz went to see Voron and Saira wandered until she knew everyone would be asleep. She passed Legolas' room several times but held back the urge to go inside.
Saira found Dmitri asleep in front of the fireplace on a pile of books. Saira walked over to him a sat on his back but he slept on. Saira then got up and ran her finger up his spine. He woke up groggily.
"Hey love"
"What are you still doing up?" Saira asked
"Homework. Snape gave me about four essays to do while you were out"
"Oh okay. You know Liz told me you never came to visit me"
"I've seen you unconscious and I've seen you hurt and I don't like it," he said seriously.
"I would've thought you were used to it by now"
"It's not something I can't get used to Saira. As much as I try to deny it, a part of me will always belong to you because of all we've been through together"
"That's sweet, and likewise" Saira said hugging Dmitri "Now give me your essays. I'll finish them"
"You're the best love"
"I know. Hey Dmitri?"
"Yeah?"
"What are your plans for Christmas?"
"I hadn't really thought about it. I just figured we'd go back to Middle-Earth," he said though he didn't seem too ecstatic about the idea.
"What would you say.if I told you we were going back to Hyrule?"
"I'd say, 'We're finally going home.' So does this mean we really are going home?" He asked hopefully
"Yeah"
Dmitri went to bed while Saira finished his essays. It was good to see him smile like he did. She knew he loved Hyrule.
Saira was allowed to leave the next morning and Dmitri was so happy to see her that he wouldn't leave her side. She was happy to learn that McGonagall didn't give out much homework because of the quidditch match. This made Saira have homework for only one class, Charms.
