A/N: Whee! This is so much fun, isn't it? Welcome to the third installment of "In the Dark"! This one is written from our favorite Boy- Who-Lived's perspective. I hope that everyone is enjoying this little series so far. I'm having a blast writing it. Alright, for the moment I'll shut up so you can get to reading! Enjoy!

Harry propped his head upon his hand as Professor Binns' voice droned on. He winced – not only was his scar tingling a bit today, but his hand was still sore from his detention with Umbridge last night. He was definitely not looking forward to the next detention he had with that toad of a woman.
He was spacing out, falling into his own little world, when the rustle of parchment brought him back to reality. Harry looked down at the desk in front of him – it was a note from Ron. He glanced up at the teacher, who of course was more than concentrating on his lecture, and then he glanced over at Ron on his right. Ron urged him to open the note. Harry unfolded the parchment. Harry, you feeling alright mate? You don't look so well. –R.
Harry picked up his quill and scribbled a short reply to Ron. I'm a bit tired from detention last night. And I've got a lot on my mind. –H.
After passing the parchment back to Ron, Harry began to let his mind drift again. Once more, however, his thoughts were interrupted by Ron passing a note to him. Do you think that Sakura's friend is going to make a good DADA? And do you think Jade is alright? She was a good teacher, you know. –R.
He'll probably be really good. Sakura told me that he actually helped to train her magic, so he must be good. Harry paused for a moment, glancing up at Professor Binns, who continued to lecture without pause. About Jade... I shouldn't have said anything in class. Maybe she would've been able to keep her job if I hadn't spoken up. At least Dumbledore found a way to keep her here. I think the Greasy Git would've had my head if Jade had been sent away. And she IS a good teacher. Best DADA we've had since Moony. –H.
He passed the note back to Ron and watched as his friend read it. The youngest of the Weasley boys quickly scratched out a reply. The note was shoved back at him, and Harry unfolded it eagerly. Oy, mate. Don't feel bad. It wasn't your fault. If you hadn't said that You-Know-Who had returned I'm sure that Jade would've. And I'd probably watch out around the Greasy Git tomorrow in class. What is up with him and Jade anyways? How can she be nice to him? -R.
Yeah. I'll be sure to be on my toes tomorrow in class. I get the feeling that Jade went to school with the Git and the Marauders. But I don't know what's up with her and Snape. Harry paused, considering. He wasn't sure if he should mention it to Ron... I overheard Li and Sakura the other day. They said something about Snape and Jade having remarkably similar auras. I wasn't quite sure what they were talking about. Think we should ask them about it later? –H.
Definitely, mate. I hate being left in the dark about things, and I know you feel the same way. Hey, do you think Jade was friends with the Marauders when she was in school? She was a Gryffindor, after all. –R.
Yeah. We can ask them later tonight. I wouldn't be surprised if she were friends with at least my Mum. From what I know about her, she probably would've been good friends with Jade. Anyways. Let's talk about this after class. I think Binns is starting to notice. –H.
Ron nodded as he read the note, then turned back to his History of Magic textbook. Harry turned to his own book, and was soon lost in his thoughts. Well, he thought to himself, my hand hurts, my scar hurts, I got a teacher fired, Snape will probably have my head for it anyways, and I can't figure out what to do with a beautiful, powerful, sweet, adorable transfer student... He sighed, grateful that the bell for lunch had finally rung and interrupted his train of thought. He gathered up his things and left the class with Hermione, Ron, and Li.
A/N: Hm. Yes. I'm fairly happy with the way this one turned out. I like the idea of revealing his inner thoughts through a note with Ron. Ah, and just a quick reply to crazy daisy – technically I started the other story before I ever even thought about the cross over. But have no fear. I'm pretty sure that I will have finished the cross over by the time the summer is over. Look for the next chapter or two to be up by the end of the weekend. And thanks for your review!
