Chapter two: Talking everything over.

He ran, what else could he do. He just found his Transfiguration professor, the Deputy Headmistress, in the Headmaster's private quarters in the middle of the night, not to mention they were both in nights wear.

He was still running. First he had just ran to get away from the unsettling scene, but know he was running in the direction of Head Boy and Girl quarters.

Hermione would be able to help him, he hoped. She was always there for him, but he feared this might be a little bit too much for her too. He didn't know what was going on tonight anymore. First the strange dream, then those two up there, ... I mustn't think about that, I really mustn't. Please Hermione, I hope you can help me.

His brain was running in overdrive, but he couldn't think of a single explanation for anything at the moment. He just ran, until he arrived at the portrait that gave access to his and Hermione's private commonroom.

"Minerva?" Albus asked, looking at his deputy confused. "What's going on?"

"Uhm, not much really," she replied absentmindedly. "The poor fellow. He's probably frightened to dead now, what must he have thought when he saw us."

"Tabby?" Albus asked again. "What's going on?"

"Huh? Oh sorry Albus, I wasn't really listening. What did you ask?"

"What happened before I came in and what was Mister Potter doing here in the middle of the night?"

"Well uh, Fawkes woke me up. He was shrieking madly. I thought there was an intruder in your office, so I jumped out of bed, took my wand and went in. I was ready to attack, but I only found Mister Potter in there. I don't know what he was doing here, cause he started stuttering and then you came in and he ran. That's all. I don't know anything more than you do," she explained.

"I suppose he wanted to talk to me about some thing or another. I wouldn't know what it is, but it probably has something to do with Voldemort. I need to talk to him as soon as possible."

"That was exactly what I was thinking Albus, and we'll need to talk to him about us too."

"You're right my dear. I think we need some crisis management at the moment. Any ideas?" he replied, putting his arm around her and sitting down in the couch.

"We'll need to find him first. I suppose there's a very big chance that he's run back to his quarters. More likely those of Ms Granger, but those are next to his, so I think that's where we should be going."

"No bad idea Tabby, but I suppose I should go talk to him alone first. AND, that can wait until tomorrow evening I believe," he said, cuddling closer and kissing her.

"Albus!" she replied indignantly. "How can you think about that after what happened tonight!"

"It's not difficult at all my dear, just give in to it, you'll see," he told her between kisses.

"Mmm," she mumbled, "I believe you're right," and kissed him back passionately.

"Hogwarts a History!" he told the portrait, which immediately swung aside letting him in. Instead of going up to his own Head Boy room, he went straight for the Head Girl room, where his best friend was probably sleeping peacefully, but not for long anymore.

He threw open the door and lit his wand with a quick lumos. In seconds he reached her bed and he started shaking her shoulder.

"Mione, Mione, wake up!" he almost cried.

She woke up almost immediately. Rubbing her eyes she spoke still sleepily, "Calm down Harry, calm down! What happened?"

"You won't believe it Mione, you really won't. This is really too weird," he said, finally stopping the shaking.

"WHAT am I not going to believe? Just tell me Harry, so I can decide if I believe you or not myself," she replied getting impatient.

"Right, you're right Mione. Well it was uh..."

"WHAT Harry? WHAT? Spit it out mate... it'll help."

By now he had calmed down a bit, but he was still breathing heavily. She sat up in her bed and pulled him down next to her. After a hug and some more soothing words from Hermione, he had calmed down enough to tell the story and he started.

"I woke up a bit earlier to the cause of a strange dream about Voldemort. It isn't the first, it happens frequently, but this really was too weird, so I wanted to talk to Dumbledore about it. I went out, guessed the password of his office, and climbed the stairs. I bounced on his door a bit, and Fawkes was very happy to see me there again. He screeched madly. I waited patiently for him to get out of his bed, but then I heard someone calling my name while I was with my back to the door to his private quarters. I turned around and it was... "

"Who was it Harry?" she asked impatiently

"It was... oh Mione, I can't, it's too weird, you really wouldn't believe it... it was McG...-McGonnagall," he told her shocked.

She burst out in a huge fit of laughter.

"But Mione... you don't understand... she was... "he said, almost yelling again.

"Oh, but I think I do Harry," she managed between the laughing.

He looked at her unbelievingly.

"If I understand correctly, you went to Dumbledore's office, and there you saw McGonnagall. And let me guess. She was in nightwear and you didn't expect to see her there in the middle of the night, clothed like that, so you were shocked," she stated calmly, still laughing.

"What? How do you know?" he asked. "And then seconds later, he came in in only a purple boxershort and he called her Tabby!"

She broke into an enormous fit of laughter again and looked at him cutely.

"Oh Harry... You're probably the only one who didn't guess that. And now you're the only one who did actually see it," she said.

"See what Mione?"

"You still don't get it do you?" she brought out.

"Get WHAT Mione?"

"Those two's relationship Harry, everyone thinks there's more going on between them, but you're the only one who actually saw them together," he looked dumbfounded. "Oh you're so cute if you don't get something," she hugged him again.

"I love you Harry."

Finally he understood what happened. "I love you too Mione, thanks for clearing things for me," he said and kissed her lightly.
