Ch 3

            "Harry! Harry! Wake up!"

            Harry jolted awake in a cold sweat, it was the middle of the night, Ron was sitting up in his bed with his eyes wide.

            "Harry? Are you okay? You were screaming and thrashing in your sleep, did you have a nightmare?"

            "N-No, I-I mean yes, sorry."

            Harry had been dreaming of Sirius dieing again.  Just then Mrs. Weasley and Lupin came in.

            "Is everything aright?" asked Lupin with his wand out, looking around the room as if expecting someone to jump out at them.

            "Yea, Harry just had a nightmare."

            "Oh, you poor dear, thank goodness Severus will be starting occlumency with you soon." said Mrs. Weasley

            "Was it a dream Voldemort sent, Harry?"

            "N-No." said Harry, not making eye contact with anyone, he felt really uncomfortable with everyone looking at him.

            "Oh… Well we'll talk about this tomorrow everyone needs their sleep." said Mrs. Weasley leading Lupin out of the room.

                        They left the room and Ron was still staring at Harry as if there was something wrong with him, Harry tried to sleep but he still felt as if people were watching him, he also knew that Lupin and Mrs. Weasley didn't go to sleep,  because he could hear them walking by outside the room many times throughout the night.

~*~

            Harry and Ron got up in the morning and it was obvious none of them slept after Harry's nightmare the night before.  Harry and Ron were on their way downstairs when Lupin called Harry into his room.

            "Harry, are you okay?"

            "Yea, s-sorry about last night."

            "It was nothing, Harry; I just worry about you, what was your dream about if Voldemort didn't send it."

            Harry was silent and looking at the ground, he didn't want to tell Lupin what he was dreaming.

            "Was it about Sirius, Harry?"

            Harry nodded.  "I-It's in the Department of Mysteries, w-when it happened."

            "Harry, I know it is really hard for you with him gone, it is hard for me too.  I never thought I would be the last Marauder left.  But Sirius would have never wanted us to be like this."

            Harry nodded and was walking out the room when Lupin said, "Remember if you need to talk, Harry, I'm here

            Harry walked downstairs and sat at the table for breakfast, it was obvious while he was upstairs Ron told Hermione, Ginny, Fred and George what happened, they were all staring at him when George broke the silence.

            "Harry! So glad you're here! We now have a shop in Hogsmeade that you'll have to come visit sometime, it's really great."

            "And we would not have had it without you" added Fred, smiling.

            They all sat eating their breakfast in silence for a little while and when they were done they were all too tired to get up.

            "Hey when do we go back to Hogwarts?" asked Ginny

            "Remember Dumbledore came and told us last week, we are leaving tomorrow and your mom already got all of us our supplies."

            "Oh yea," said Ginny, "I forgot."

            Mrs. Weasley then came downstairs to see everyone was already done eating.

            "Hermione, Ron, Ginny and Harry you should probably gather all of your things and pack them because we'll be leaving pretty early tomorrow."

            Harry, Ron, Ginny and Hermione then all went upstairs to pack.  It took them the rest of the afternoon since there things were scattered all over.  That night a lot of people from the Order came for dinner, Bill, Charlie, Fred, George, Tonks, Kingsley, Moody, Snape, Dumbledore, Lupin, Mrs. Weasley and Mr. Weasley were the only people Harry recognized Harry sat down and ate quietly while everyone else talked and laughed telling stories.  About half-way through dinner Harry had a jolt of pain through his scar, he felt as if it might split open, he slapped his hand to his fore-head and as quickly as the pain came, it went away, he looked around and nobody had noticed, except for one person, Snape.  Snape was staring at Harry in a strange way. Harry quickly looked at Snape and then looked away, he told Ron next to him that he was tired and going to go to bed, Ton just nodded and kept on eating. 

            Harry went upstairs but he didn't go to sleep, he sat on his bed and put his hands through his hair, he had a dull headache.  If only Sirius were here, he would know what to do.  Sirius… it was all my fault he died, if I wasn't always trying to be the hero, that's why I will keep to myself and not let my friends help me, they will only end up dieing or hurting themselves.  Harry really missed Sirius, so he took out a piece of parchment and started writing:

Dear Sirius,

I feel really bad that I was the reason you died.  I am going to study occlumency really hard so I won't hurt any other people I care about.  This year everyone is treating me really different and talking about me behind my back, I wish they would stop.  If you were here none of this would have happened, you would never let them treat me like this. 

Just then Harry could hear people coming upstairs; he quickly threw the letter in his trunk and pretended to be sleeping.  Ron and Hermione opened the door.

"Oh, he sleeping, we can go hang out in my room." said Hermione.

"He's really different this year, it's like he doesn't want to be our friends anymore."

"Ron! Sirius is dead, he was the closest thing he had to a parent, he is just still getting over him."

"He has all of us, we care for him!"

Hermione and Ron then closed the door and left.  Harry was still awake and about an hour later Ron came in and went to sleep.

~*~

            The next morning Fred and George came in to wake them up.

            "OY! Mom told us to wake you up" yelled Fred in the room.

            "She said the Ministry cars will be here soon so bring down your trunks." added George. And then you heard to faint pops of them apparating out of the room.

            Ron and Harry slowly got up yawning; they got dressed and dragged their trunks downstairs.  When they got downstairs Ginny and Hermione were already downstairs looking just as tired as them.  Mrs. Weasley was handing them all pieces of toast for breakfast.

            "Sorry boys but we have to eat and run so hurry and eat your toast." said Mrs. Weasley

            Harry ate his piece of toast and put his trunk in one of the Ministry cars, he got in the car and sat with Ginny in the back and Ron and Hermione got in the other car, in the front seat sat Lupin and Moody and in the other car was Mr. and Mrs. Weasley.

            They got to Kings Cross with a half hour until the train left.  They all went through the platform and were by the train saying their goodbyes.  Harry first said goodbye to Lupin and Moody.

            "If you ever need someone to talk to Harry, I'm here."

            "And remember to keep your self safe, always be aware of your surroundings." barked Moody.

            "I will, thanks." replied Harry.  Harry then said goodbye to Mr. and Mrs. Weasley.  Mrs. Weasley gave Harry a huge hug.

            "Stay safe Harry."

            "We'll see you later, and let us know if you ever need anything."

            "Alright, bye." said Harry.

            Harry got on the train and went to one of the last compartments with Ginny, Luna and Neville, Ron and Hermione had a prefect meeting.

            They were all sitting in their compartment when Malfoy opened the door.  He looked right at Harry with his wand out when Ginny said "Hex him and you'll have to deal with us."  And sure enough Neville and Luna both had their wands out too.

            "It's your choice Malfoy," said Harry smiling with his wand out, "by the way how is your dad enjoying Azkaban?"

            "I'll get you later Potter," spat Malfoy, "You will pay."  And with that Malfoy stalked off.

            After Malfoy left Ron and Hermione came in and sat down.  They all sat telling about their summers and the train finally stopped at Hogwarts.  Harry saw the familiar face of Hagrid who seemed to have fewer wounds this year and then went on the thestral-drawn carriage to get to the school.  He hoped this year would be better.
