Disclaimer: I don't own any parts of Harry Potter.

A/N: I think this chapter is PG-13 because it mentions rape once, so beware. It's not graphic or anything, just mentions. Anyways, enjoy the chapter! Oh, and from the previous chapter, I revoke what I said about them going to Potions towards the end. Nobody really commented on it, but I was going over it and it occurred to me that I did not mean that. So, sorry! And I absolutely cannot forget to thank my betas Devonny Rose and Prongs79!!!

At Harry's next session, he met his new vic – therapist. His first impression was that the woman was an incredibly stuck up version of McGonagall. Harry immediately disliked her. Right from her pristine high heels to her perfectly assembled hairstyle. Her hawk-like stare made him feel incredibly uncomfortable as he walked over to the comfy chair across from her.

"Good evening, Mr. Potter, you may refer to me as Ms. Trelawney," she began before she was interrupted by a sudden coughing fit that strangely had Harry smiling at the end of. "Yes, well, if you are finished, I would like to start with some ink blots." Harry simply nodded mutely.

"Alright, what does this first one look like to you?" she questioned, holding up the stack of cards.

"Well, Ms. Trelawney, it looks like a cauldron. Yes, a really big one, like when I saw Voldemort come out of one," Harry had to stop there because Ms. Trelawney had sucked in her breath and was taking a moment to calm down. Harry smiled sweetly and she shakily moved to the next card.

"Oh, that's easy! That looks just like my Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor from first year. His name was Quirrel, poor chap is dead now, but I must say it really must have been difficult for him, what with having Voldemort stuck on the back of his head and everything."

Ms. Trelawney looked positively aghast at this and said in a strangled voice, "That's enough of the ink blots," then in a forced calm continued, "Why don't you tell me about your dreams, I heard that you have some trouble sleeping because of nightmares."

Harry smiled and said, "Oh yes, last night, well, I dreamt of this really, really nice little cottage. It had a mother and father and two beautiful little girls. It was really a great place, well until Voldemort came. Yeah, he tortured the father first. The mother tried to get away with the daughters, but some Death Eaters caught them. The mother was raped. She then had to watch as her two daughters were tortured and killed one by one. She was screaming for mercy and I was almost relieved when they finally killed her," unknowingly, Harry had begun to speak in a trance-like state.

It had the desired effect, though, because Ms. Trelawney was clutching her chest and trying to pick herself off the floor. "Are you alright, m' am, you know, you should really get used to this sort of thing. I tend to be really involved with the whole Voldemort thing."

This seemed to be the last straw for Ms. Trelawney, who stood up and shrieked, "This session is over!" Harry could only smile to himself satisfactorily as she stormed out of the room.

Once Harry had collected himself from the therapist's room, he walked down to the secret room. He briefly thought about how they needed to think up a better name for it. He pushed the thought aside, though, as he pushed aside the tapestry to get in. Once in, he greeted Ron and Hermione. The room was perfectly spotless, now they were painting the walls bright Gryffindor red, even though Hermione rolled her eyes at her two best friend's display of house loyalty.

The House Elves had easily been able to provide them with all the supplies that they would need. The floor was surprisingly, a very nice wood flooring that they decided to keep. The painting was taking them a while, but they would probably be finished that night.

When they had finally finished the job, and were all three a nice shade of red (which probably had nothing whatsoever to do with the paint war that started), they all collapsed in the middle of the room to admire their work.

"Alright, well, now all we need to do is finish it all up. Hermione, why don't you look up some interesting spells and thing. Ron, you and I will design the furniture and what needs to go in here, but I have a special project I need to do first," Harry said to them. The best friends looked a little surprised, but nodded their heads in agreement that it was a good plan.

As they finally decided to make their way up to their dormitory, Ron kept on pestering Harry to say what he was planning, but Harry refused to let it slip, and Ron had to go to bed wondering. At least it was a Friday, and they would be able to sleep in the next day.

~*~

The next morning, though, Hermione woke the two of them up. The boys were grumbling, but she said if they were missing at breakfast then people would start to suspect something. They still didn't like being woken up after such a late night, but they saw her reasoning and got up anyways.

They stumbled around a bit but then followed Hermione down the stairs and out of the portrait hole. They were a little annoyed because Hermione kept giggling, but they just shrugged at each other. It must be yet another example of why girls would always be unexplainable.

Walking into the Great Hall, the trio sat down and began eating breakfast. Ron and Harry piled their plates full of food as Hermione took out a book and hid her bushy head behind it. Although, giggles could still be heard from behind it.

Now that they thought about it, her giggles sounded awfully loud in the Great Hall. Looking around, the two boys saw that all the heads in the hall were turned towards them. The boys just shrugged again and dug into their hearty breakfasts.

They stopped suddenly, though, when a shriek filled the room. "HAROLD JAMES POTTER!" Harry turned brick red and turned towards the familiar voice. He stared in horror for a moment before turning towards a smug Dumbledore. It was somewhat odd as when Harry thought of Dumbledore he never once thought 'smug', but that was definitely what was on the old man's face.

"No, Dumbledore can't do this to me! Voldemort wouldn't do this! It's inhumane, I tell you. Ron, quick, hide me, mate. I won't face Voldemort ever again if I'm turned into mashed potatoes," Harry said in a more than slightly panicked voice.

Ron just shook with silent laughter as he indicated that Harry was on his own. Nobody would stand a chance against the wrath of Molly Weasley. She stormed over to the Gryffindor table and a parting of students left Harry incredibly open to the oncoming attack. 'Well, at least I know who my real friends are,' Harry thought nervously.

"Young man, do you know how much trouble you have caused? I was making dinner last night when an owl came in. Yes, I had the horror of reading what you did to those poor therapists!" Harry opened his mouth in order to reply angrily, he didn't want everyone knowing he was seeing a therapist, but Mrs. Weasley angrily spoke over whatever he was about to say, "I was horrified! I can't believe you would do something like that. After all, everyone is just trying to help you and you acting like this is a game. It is not a game, mister, and you better shape up!" Mrs. Weasley went on, and Harry was more and more chastened by her impassioned speech. "You will go to this next therapist, and you will behave and get treated properly, is that clear?"

"Yes, m' am," Harry answered in a quiet voice which softened Mrs. Weasley's face considerably.

"Good. Now, dear, why are you and Ron parading around in your boxers?"
