I don't own Harry Potter or anything related to him. JK Rowling does. Hahha! I said that last time! Anyway, you know the drill.
Maria flopped down onto the couch. "Wow," she said. "This is heaven!"
Harry looked at her. He watched her burrow into the pillows and make a small groove to place her face. Maria grabbed the pillow closest to her and threw it at Hermione.
"Hey! What was that for?"
I'm only trying to have some fun around here!" she said while blocking her face from the oncoming pillow. "Wait!" She stod up. "Shhh! Listen!"
Everyone strained their ears to see if they could hear what she could. Maria tip-toed over to the fireplace and leaned over towards it. She looked real close to the stone hedge that bordered the top of it. She plucked a thin black cat hair from two of the stones. "Ha! I heard you Johny, and now I found your tracks! Come out, kitty!"
And sure enough, Johnny the Black Cat of Mystery jumped from a dark spot on the floor and landed in her arms.
Ron looked at Harry. "Wow."
"How did you do that?" asked Hermione. "I mean, how did you hear something so quiet while we where all talking, and see a single cat hair by the fire?"
"When you live with a cat, you get the senses of a cat. I've had this cat for my whole life. Used to belong to my dear mother."
"You know, now that we speak of it, where is your mother? You don't seem to talk about her much. But-" he said at the last moment, making sure not to offend Maria at all. "You don't have to say so if you don't--"
"My mom is dead."
Everone stopped what they were doing, escept ofcourse, Johnny. He knew this story.
"It's okay. I mean, it was a long time ago." She sat down on the couch next to Harry. "She died giving birth to me. It's my falut she's dead. If my spirit would have picked another woman to bear it, she would be alive. But I know, she wanted me to live. She wanted me to happen. She gave everything for it, too. She told Mother Nature she's give anything for a healthy baby girl, so Mother Nature took everything. That's why I don't talk about her. There aren't many things about her, except her heroic tale to give me life."
She looked at Harry, who was looking at his lap. He spoke, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to ask, I shouldn't have--."
"Nah, it's okay. I mean, I knew you were bound to ask me sooner or later. And anyway, the more you know abouta person, the moreyou understand them. And now you understand me alittle bit more, and I see no harm in that at all."
They all looked up at her and smiled. She smiled back. Harry saw the same beauty in her he saw while they where on the train. Her smile showed her stength, her stength that no power on Earth could destroy. As he loked at her more, he always noticed something new on her. He roamed his eyes to her's which where looking at the fire, then down her sweet neck. As soon as he got to her breasts, he looked away and blushed. We only just met he thought. I shouldn't be doing that. Not until we are dating. Ack! To far in the future. Stop thinking...
Maria looked at Harry. "You alright there, pal? Look alittle red." With that, both Hermione and Ron looked at Harry. Ron began to laugh. "You know what? I'm planning on hitting the sack. I don't know about you three...." Ron got up, and walked up towards the boy's dorm.
"Yeah," said Hermoine with a yawn. "I'm going as well. Good night, Harry, 'night Ron," she said while turning to Maria. "You comin'?"
"No, I actually want to stay here with Johnny for a few moments. He seems excited about something."
"Okay." Hermione turned around and vanished away.
Now it was just Harry and Maria. There was a long silence between them. Maria played with her cat by throwing her wand in dark pathes on the wall and Johnny would run and fetch it. Wow. She was playing fetch with her cat. Harry, on the other hand, was careful not to look at her, knowing he would go into his fantasy world where it was just him and her. Though, by the looks of it, he was in his fantasy.
Maria broke the silence. "You seem uncomfortable, Harry. YOu want to talk about something?"
"Huh?" He blinked, then realised where he was. "Yeah, just thinking."
"About what?" Maria said, scooting over to him.
"Uhhh...." He was breaking into a slight sweat. She made him so uncomfortable, yet he wanted to hold her. To touch her. To love her.
"You know what? I think this is a bad time for me. I should have gone with Hermione to bed. I know, you are thinking about what I told you about my mom, and I bet you don't know what to do next with me, incase I bring up some other tragic event. I'm going to sleep. You should to, you know. It will help the both of us. See you tomorrow."
"Well, your right," said Harry, relieved she gave him the perfect excuse to blush. "But before we go to bed...." He walked over to Maria and looked her in the eyes. He wrapped his arms around her and held her close to her, listening to her breath, and feeling her heart beat with his. He smelled her hair; it was the smell of a sweet rose. He leaned away, looked her in the eyes, and smiled. He kissed her with all the love he had to bring. She gasped and put her hands on his face. It was like kissing insanity. Every thought he had of her rushed through his head as he went to grab her arms.
Maria broke the kiss and ran towards the girl's dorm. When she reached the top ofthe stairs, she turned to him and smiled. He smiled back as she ran up the stairs, with Johnny following close behind her.
Sorry it was so short. I had to end it so I could go to BED. Hahha! Sweet dreams everyone, and thanks for reading!
