The days rolled on and Sam and Destiny caught up on mother daughter things...
Soon the end of the year arrived and they were going home...
Sam had received high grades and an excellent report...
Sirus had congratulated her personally and explained his relationship with Harry...
Also over the months Sam had begun to get over Dan but when she went up to his dorm to see it for the first time, to sort out his things she had seen the many pictures of her...
The one picture which made her break down was the picture of them together...
Sam was leaning against Dan in the picture and she was sleeping.
Dan was stroking her hair gently and he was whispering I love you to her...
She had often wept wishing for him to be there with her but she knew that it was never true...

When they went on the boats back to the platform and grew ready to depart...
Sam glanced back at Hogwarts and a ghostly voice whispered into her ear...
"I'm still here for you...," whispered the voice...
She got off the boat and looked again at Hogwarts..
She turned and infront of her, stood in a dark alley stood a ghost...
Two ghosts actually and they were holding hands...
"Sam...," called one ghost "It's me Dan...,"
"Dan...," whispered Sam as she stepped into the alley
"I'm happy Sam...I've got Cho back...," he smiled that familiar smile which she'd seen a long time ago...
"I'll never leave you...," he whispered as he took her hand...
For a moment his hand was solid but then it slid through her skin.
Sam's eyes filled with tears as she looked up at Dan...
He was still smiling as he began to fade...
"I love you Sam...," he whispered
Before he faded all together he stepped a little closer to Sam and kissed her cheek...
Then he faded all together and finally just as Dan's final shape was disappearing he whispered "I love you Sam...,"
His words echoed around her for a while and she broke down into tears and sunk to the floor...
She cried and hid her head in her hands until she felt a hand on her shoulder...
Sam looked up into the eyes of another ghost...
"Hello Sam," he smiled
"William...," gasped Sam as she realised that the ghost was William Nicholson, the first father she'd known
Sam went to hug him but she went straight through his body...
"I want to hold onto you so badly now...But I can't with this body...," whispered William
"I know...," whispered Sam as the tears streamed down her cheeks
"Don't cry Sam...Like Dan said...I always love you no matter who's daughter you are...And I'll always be watching over you...," whispered William
Soon he began to fade and Sam was left all alone...
She wiped the tears from her eyes and stepped out of the alley...
Harry, Jay and Sirus were there to see her off...

"Hey Sam" said Jay.
"Hi" she said
"So I see you had a strange year." said sirius.
"Ya but you will get used to it, I certainly did." said Harry and they laughed.
"You know what sam, Seeing is who your mother is I think you will make a great element Angel one day." said Jay. Sam smiled with delight.

"Bye!" called Sam "See you next year!"
"Bye Jay, Harry and of coarse Sirus...," smiled Destiny as she boarded the train...
"Goodbye!" called Harry
"Owl us if anything goes wrong!" called Jay
"We will!" laughed Sam
They found a compartment and waved to Sirus, Harry and Jay as the train left...
As the train chugged into the country side Sam just looked out the window for a while...
