The train pulled into Hogsmeade Station and came to a jerking hault. As we stepped off the train we were met by the real Prof. Lupin along with the rest of the Order. "Thank God you two are alright." Luping gripped onto Chelsie and pulled her into his chest hugging her so tightly she could barely breathe. He let go and turned to me, his arms wide open. "Harry!"

Before he could grip onto me I stepped back. "No hugs thanks."

"Alright you two head straight up to your dormitory no wandering off!" We nodded and raced off to our dormitory.

"Do you think Lupin was happy to see you?" I joked as Chelsie dragged on behind me, seemily in pain from being squeezed so tightly.

"I think he broke a few ribs." We laughed and I waited for her to catch up. "Do you realise how much trouble we're in? I mean we walked off with total strangers, how could we have been so stupid?"

I shurgged and held out my hand signaling for her to take it. I waited and finally felt the warmness of her hand fall into mine. "Well, at least I got in trouble with you."

"Hey Potter!" Draco pushed on my back and I turned around, my face red with anger. "Ran off with my girlfriend did you?" He pushed me again and I was beginning to lose my cool. "I thought I told you to stay away from her."

"Leave him alone!" Draco turned and focused on her. The moment his eyes fell on her a strange, eerie feeling came over her.

Draco turned back to me and sneered. "Stay away from her Potter. This is the last time I'm going to tell you. Remember this, the next time I catch you with her, you'll be in worse pain than you were before, I guarantee it." With that he turned around and left.

As he disappered around the corner I turned and looked at Chelsie. "Alright there Chelsie?"

"No." She then began to walk back to the dormitory without me and I couldn't help but wonder what was wrong.

I entered the common room and found Ron in one of the oversized arm chairs waiting for me. "I was wondering when you'd get here."

"Did you see Chelsie?"

"Yeah, awfully quiet she was."

"Yeah, well Malfoy ambushed us on our way up."

"It's kind of odd isn't it."

"What is?"

Ron was surprised that I hadn't seen this sooner. "How could you not notice? Isn't it odd how Malfoy always shows up when you two are together?"

"Because he doesn't want us to be together that's why. I mean, if Hermione went out with someone else how would you feel?"

"Angry...I mean uh...why do I care who Hermione goes out with? This is about you! Sure, I understand Malfoy's pissed because you stole his girlfriend..."

"She's not his girlfriend."

"WHATEVER! My point is that, Malfoy shows up everywhere you two go! Something is not right with that. Why is he soooooo determined to keep you two apart? I think he's up to something."

"You always do."

He cocked his eyebrow. "I don't believe it. You're standing up for Malfoy!"

I stood up. "I'm not standing up for anyone! I just...I don't know anymore Ron. I don't know how to tell what's out of the ordinary and what's not. Maybe Malfoy is up to something, but I'm not worried about that..."

"You're not worried that maybe Malfoy did something to Chelsie?"

"I know he did something to Chelsie do we really have to talk about that????"

He rolled his eyes. "I'm not talking about sex dummy! Chelsie Claudel has been here just as long as we have, in the same house, and nothing out of the ordinary has happened until Malfoy got a hold of her! You don't find that strange!?"

"Stop yelling!"

There was an awkward silence. "Sorry."

"Do you really think..."

"I don't think I believe Harry. I know he did something. We just have to figure out what."

I sighed, Ron had a very valid point and I couldn't help but agree with him. "Don't mention any of this to Chelsie."

"I won't. Come on lets get off to bed. All this arguing with you has worn me out."

I laughed and the two of us headed up to our room. I didn't even bother getting undressed. The past few days had been extremely tiring and the moment I hit the pillow I fell fast asleep.
