I am sooooooooo sorry for not updating but my beta is gone( I have written
this part a week ago and I still haven't got her answer so this part is not
fixed. PLEASE DON'T BE ANGRY BECAUSE OF GRAMMAR OR SPELLING MISSTAKES. I am
soooo sorry for them. Thank you guys for the reviews. Firstly, to the
anonymous I know Hogwarts is at Scotland, Cordelia saying it's in England
has something to do with the later parts. Buffy WILL be coming to Hogwarts
and there WILL be Spike soon. I haven't decided who I should pair Harry wit
whether with Ginny or with Draco so you can still vote. Listening to Nerwen
advice I am changing the label of the story. And Darla56 you can be proud
because it's your review which made me update sooner.
Hope you will like it. PLEASE, review it.
Love you all.
Enjoy.(
Ginny Weasley was looking at her boyfriend angrily.
"How could you do that Dean?"
"Ginny, it wasn't my fault."
"Wasn't your fault? WASN'T YOUR FAULT???" She screamed to his ear.
"Well, you see Seamus wanted to..." He looked shyly at her.
"Seamus, it's always Seamus, isn't it? Why don't you just date him?" Her face matched her hair perfectly. She was red from anger.
"Ginny, you don't mean that?"
"You say I don't know what I am thinking?"
"No..." Dean realized that this time he was going to die if not from the looks Ginny was sending him then from the beatings of her brother for hurting his little sister.
"So what do you mean?"
"Look Ginny I am sorry." She sent him a killing look.
"Ok, I am really sorry. I promise never to do that again."
" Never to do what?" Dean sighted, she was going to make him say it.
"I will never ditch..." God he hated it.
"I can't hear you."
"I will never ditch dancing lessons again." She smiled at him. Thank Merlin the worst was left behind.
"And...?"
"And I will give you my broom for quidditch."
"Oh, you are the best boyfriend ever." Ginny hugged and kissed him on the check. She wondered how could it be so easy to manipulate boys. Not that she minded but sometimes she dreamed about someone who wouldn't so sweet. Sometimes she dreamed about Harry.

Ron Weasley wasn't as stupid as people thought. He understood more than he said. So when he heard the ridiculous explanation Dawn gave them he immediately knew it was a lie. He would have believed it like Harry and Hermione did but he knew Dawn. Ron had spent lots of hours observing her when he had a crush on her in the 3rd year.
"So you fell?"
"Yes Ron." She gave him one of the smiles which had made him melt.
"But how..."
"Ron, leave her alone." His friend was blinded by the happiness and couldn't see what he saw. The nervous glances, the waiting Dawn's eyes.
"Ron, I think we should go."
Weasley looked at Hermione and nodded. As soon as they left his friend dragged him into the room of requirement. It was empty except for two sofas standing near the wall.
"Explain."
"Dawn is somehow..."
"Different."
"Yeah." Ron was amazed by how quickly Hermione's brain worked. They sat in silent for a moment.
"Ron, would you like to go with me to the Hogsmade?" Hermione was red as tomato.
"I... uhh... well, you see." She jumped.
"I understand, I just thought. Never mind." She was near the door.
"I would like to go with you Hermione."
"You would?" Uncertain eyes looked at him. Ron thought that she had never been so beautiful as she was now.
"Of course, I was going to ask you myself but..." He was interrupted when something soft met his lips. He was kissing. He really was kissing. And his first kiss belonged to Hermione. Ron liked it. He liked it quite a lot.
Dawn POV

Harry had left at last. But I am not alone. I really don't know how long had he waited in the corner just looking at me. I think I noticed him an hour ago. He hasn't moved, just looked. Those black eyes looks so surprised when I meet his gaze. I don't know how to call him. It would be funny to call him Professor now, after all I have known him all his life. I smile and he comes closer.
"We need to talk." My voice sounds so strange. Everything is strange when he is near. Everything is more beautiful, everything is just more.
He sits next to me and I catch his hand. I don't know why do I need to touch him maybe I just need to be sure he is really here. It feels so good to have his skin against mine. He is shivering.
"Are you afraid?"
"No." His fingers caress my skin.
"I am sorry for strangling you."
"It's ok." Strangely it is and I am so scared right now. I think I would let him do anything to me, even beat me. What have I become? I remember talking with mom about guys and promising her that I would never let anyone hurt me and now I am so fucking confused because I know I would. I would do anything to make him happy.
"I never meant to hurt you." He continues. God, I just love his voice. It's so manly kind of reminds me of Spike. Of course, it can be because of the English accent they both have, witch I might add I just love. And his voice has something special. Just hearing it makes me all tingly?
"I am sorry." I don't know what to do to reassure him I am fine. His beautiful black eyes are full of sorrow. I love him so much. How could I not? How could I live without him? I guess I couldn't, from the moment I became Dawn Summers something was missing, I thought it was because I wasn't real but now I know. I just couldn't help loving him.
"Severus" His name sounds strange on my lips. After all he has been my teacher for so long, it's really hard to see him from the new point of view. I can still remember him screaming at Harry. How can that man be my Severus? His eyes are looking at me waiting for an answer.
"Do you remember you 6th birthday?" He looks surprised at me. "I do. Your parents were fighting and you hid in the loft. You were so scared and then..."
"I saw you. It was you, wasn't it? That light, that voice."
"Yes, I promised never to leave you."
"But you did."
"Yes, I did." It's hard to remember it all now. It was also the day I started creating Glory. Funny, I even named her. Now I remember how hard it was to be, so I decided to hurt everyone. Everyone except him, my Severus. I had to leave him, the time wasn't right.
"What are you?" I have been waiting for this question for a long time.
"I am the Key." I can't even lie to him. A part of me is scared that he will turn around and walk away because I am not normal. But I have to do this, I must tell him the truth. "It's..."
"I know what it is." He does? Why isn't he leaving? But that means...that must mean he doesn't care. I think my heart will jump out of my chest. I don't think I have ever been so happy in my live. He knows and doesn't care. My happiness is swept away by his words. "I am a Death Eater."
"I know that you were but now you spy for..."
"Listen to me." He squeezes my hand. "I AM a Death Eater and will always be one. Don't be mistaken, I may be working for the light now but it's still me. It will be that way forever.
"No..." Why is he talking like that?
"That's who I am. I am a torturer, a rapist, a killer. My past isn't gone. It's inside me, it's a big part of me."
"But you have changed." He laughs bitterly and I shiver. His voice is so cold, so dead.
"I am who I am. I will never change. You might believe that I am a better man but I am not."
"You are, I know you are." It's killing me just hearing these words. Why is he blaming himself? I guess it's sort of Summers curse because I think I have just fallen for another Angel, alive and much much younger but brooding as much as the damn vampire with a soul. I remember laughing at Buffy because she dated him. I couldn't understand her then. It's really ironic knowing that I have fallen for a guy just like her ex. But he is different too. I understand he had make some HUGE mistakes but that was before. Now all I can see is Severus, so beautiful, so close. I want to wash away his guilt but I let him continue. Somewhere deep in my heart I know I have to listen to him.
"I liked killing and torturing. I loved the blood on my hands, the smell of it. I am not a good man and I will never be. I am no good for someone like you."
"But I am not even real, how can you be not good for me?" I try to convince him that it can work. We can be together, I know we can but his eyes tell me different.
"You are very real to me." His lips gently presses mine, I try to avoid them because I know that it is his way of saying goodbye. I don't want to say goodbye, I am not ready. Tears are falling down my cheeks as my fingers finds his hair. I press myself to his body not wanting to let go but he is already leaving.
"Don't..."
"Shhh." He caresses my cheek. "Goodbye Miss Potter." He leaves. It's over. How can it be over if it haven't started yet. I sob quietly just wishing for him to come back. Why does everyone I love keep leaving me? Dad, mum, Buffy, Sirius now Severus. Why can't I just be happy?
"I love you professor Snape." Only the empty medicine room hears my words.
