New Resolutions Chapter 19—Too Long

Severus glanced over to where Draco and Harry were working together on their potions. Draco was looking a mess. His once slicked back hair lay forgotten in his eyes. Harry looked a little better than Draco did but not by much. All he did was study now. Hermione had came to him one day after class and asked what she could do to help but there was nothing she could do.

He hadn't told either one of them about the necklaces. He wasn't sure if she was still a live even after that. It wasn't good to dwell on what might be.

The bell rang and everyone slowly moved to the door.

"Potter, Malfoy, stay," snapped Snape.

Harry and Draco lowered themselves back in their seats. Severus waited until everyone was gone.

"You both will be staying here during the summer." He told them.

The both just nodded. Harry ran a hand through his hair and Severus caught a glimpse of Harry's arm.

"Harry James!" he said grabbing his arm.

Harry couldn't look at his father. He had been cutting his wrist but stopped before too much blood would fall. Severus dropped his hand and put a hand under his chin and made him look at him.

"Why Harry?"

"Because I am sick and tired of this pain!"

"You could do this one time to many Harry! Don't your understand! You could do this and actually die! Then, when Leah comes home-"

"Damn it Dad! She's not coming home! This is so hard to hold on to her anymore!"

"How do you think we feel Harry?" snapped Draco.

Severus looked at Draco. "It's alright Draco. Just let it go."

"I'm not letting it go, Sev! She's my sister and she means a hell of a lot more to me than him!"

"You've got no right to say that! I love her!" said Harry, jumping up.

"So do I!" Draco said dangerously.

"Harry, Draco! Stop the both of you! Listen your yourselves. This isn't going to bring her back. Either will cutting yourself!" Severus said looking between them raising his voice with them for the time.

Draco and Harry looked at him.

"Sorry Uncle Sev."

"Sorry Dad."

"Harry, listen to me. Stop doing this. It isn't going to help. Nothing will help. She got to do this herself. Don't you see Harry; this is what Voldemort wants. You to do something stupid. You love Leah but you can't let her love blind you."

"Love is the only thing to live for."

"Yes, Harry bit if you hurt yourself or kill yourself, what about the people who love you?"

Harry looked up at his father.

"I'm just scared," breathed Harry.

"You're not the only one." Draco said.

"I just want her home."

Leah stared up at the ceiling. She was so tried of staring at the same ceiling, same walls for the past months.

"Well, well, is little Miss Malfoy bored?" came a voice.

Leah sat up and moved against the wall.

"Voldemort." She whispered.

"Yes. I am surprised to see that you are still alive. I thought Lucius would have finished you off by now."

"He wouldn't. You need me." Leah said though gritted teeth.

"You're smart but it seems Potter doesn't love you enough to come and get you." Voldemort said getting inside her mind.

"That's a lie. He knows what you've planned."

Voldemort looked at her. She gave a smirk.

"What, you know its true? Just like last year. You wanted him to go after Sirius. He was about to but he didn't. Sirius is still alive, though, you have moved on, from Sirius to me." She said.

Voldemort didn't answer.

"I guess I am smarting than you think."

"You're lucky I need you."

Harry walked mindlessly around Leah's bedroom. He missed seeing her lying on the couch or even the warmth her smile would bring to him.

He walked over to the table and knocked everything off of it. Glass broke and things went everywhere. Harry grabbed his arm that has glass sticking out of it his forearm.

"Harry?"

Harry turned around and saw Sirius standing in the doorway. He gave a fake smile and started to pull glass out of his arm.

"Are you okay Harry?" asked Sirius.

"Yeah, whatever."

Sirius couldn't help but stare at him.

"Snape told me you were here. I can hardly recognize you kid-o."

"He's my father Sirius. It's natural to look like him. Ouch, damn it.

Harry pulled out an inch long piece of glass.

"Come here. I'll help you get that out." Sirius said walking over to him.

"What's the point. Nothing hurts anymore.

"You're talking crazy Harry."

"Am I?"

"Now, that I see you, you are just like your father." Sirius said pulling a piece of glass out of his arm.

Harry filched as Sirius kept pulling out pieces of his arm.

"Why is that?" asked Harry.

"You both would kill yourself over the girl you love and when she leaves you, nothing else matters."

Harry looked away from him. Maybe that was true. What could he do against such strong will; the will that controlled his love for her.

Leah coughed up blood for the third time that day. Her father was by that morning. She didn't how long she would survive now.

It wasn't just her father that made her a wreck. She had more visions even more now. The worst part was what they were of. She saw Harry cutting his wrist, Draco just sitting there, starring off into space, and Snape being more cruel than ever before.

She had to escape. If not for herself, her three guys whom were waiting, pleading, and needing her to come home. She grabbed both necklaces from around her neck and held them in the palm of her hand. She glanced down at the necklace Harry had given her not to long before she was taken.

It was a silver chain that two charms hanging from it. One of the charms was a black panther that had diamonds for eyes. The other was a black wolf but it that emeralds for its eyes.

A confused look came on her face as she looked down at the necklace. Three things came to mind: Harry, Sirius, and panther.

"You're getting worse than Hermione." Jade said finding Harry in the library.

"Best thing to do with the time." He said not looking up from his book.

"Well, I thought that I should tell you that I will be returning as the Defense teacher next term."

Harry looked up and gave one of the few smiles he gave now.

"That's great Jade. Its good to have a teacher for more than one year." He said.

"I like teaching you all. You keep life interesting."

Harry nodded.

"I hope that you are okay, Harry." She said softly.

Harry shook his head. "I just want her here. I hate that I can't do anything. No one knows where the hell she is. Dumbledore's spies for the ord-" but he stopped and looked at her.

"I know about the Order Harry. I am a member of it." Jade said with a smile.

"Good. The spies don't even know where she is. Why did I have to fall in love with her? It's my fault she is not here. If it weren't for her bloody father being who he is or Voldemort being the bastard he is and them both having it in for me, she would be here with me. With Draco. With Dad. It's my fault."

Jade rested her hand on his cheek and stroked it gently in a motherly way.

"On ones to blame but Voldemort and Lucius, Harry. It's not your fault that you found true love in Leah. This shows how much you do love her if you are willing to wait for her." Jade said quietly.

Harry closed his eyes. "Maybe its stupid for me to still believe she's alive. Its been, what almost ten months since she been gone. She may be a fighter but I don't know if anyone could survive that long."

"Would you if you knew that you had three people waiting on you and loved you too much not to come back?" asked Jade removing her hand.

Harry didn't answer.

"Think about that Harry."

With that, Jade left. What the people were saying finally was getting his head? But what he hadn't told anyone was that some of the reasons he was like this was because of what Voldemort keep putting in his head.

How could he think any different when he was being told that he was killing his girlfriend?

"A small, almost baby size panther."

Harry, who was balancing on two legs of the chair, slammed down to the floor, hard, making everyone turn and look at him.

"Harry..." Snape said warningly.

"Sorry sir."

"What's up with you, Harry?" asked Draco turning around.

"Are you sure that is what you saw Hermione?" asked Harry.

"Yes. Are you okay Harry?" she asked.

Harry didn't answer. Everything was running through his head, the dream and now the panther. Maybe it was a coincidence but maybe, just maybe. He jumped up and started toward the door.
