Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter

The lyrics below are from " Until the Day I Die " by Story of the Year

Should I bite my tongue?
Until blood soaks my shirt
We'll never fall apart
Tell me why this hurts so much

My hands are at your throat
And I think I hate you
But still we'll say, "remember when"
Just like we always do
Just like we always do

Until the day I die (Until the day I die)
I'll spill my heart for you
Until the day I die (Until the day I die)
I'll spill my heart for you

The next day, Harry woke early, still smiling to himself after last nights meeting. He showered and dressed quickly. He still had Sunday to catch up all his homework and hit the books as soon as he reached the common room. He wasn't surprised to see Hermione already at work. He sat in one of their favorite armchairs and cracked open his Potions book. He figured he may as well get his least favorite subject over with first.

" Morning Harry. " Hermione chanted from behind her book.

" Morning. What are you so happy about. " he asked, arching a brow.

Hermione stayed silent, but Harry could see the blush creep up the exposed part of her forehead. " Nevermind. I don't want to know. "

" Oh Harry come on. I have to talk to someone about it. " she cried.

" Then why not talk to Ginny. " Harry asked, flipping the pages in his book.

" She's Ron sister dumbass. Do you really think she'd sit through a conversation about her brother's sex life. "

Harry suppressed a laugh. " I guess I can see the point. Why me though? "

" I don't know. You're a guy and you know what you like. I want to make it exciting for Ron. " Hermione said softly.

" Isn't it exciting already? " Harry looked up to his friend and she lowered her book.

" It is, but, I want to make it really exciting. Shock the hell out of him. " Hermione answered, fidgetting slightly.

" Then go talk to Lavendar Brown. The gods know she's fucked half the guy population here. " Harry snorted.

" I don't want to be a slut! " Hermione said incredulously

Harry laughed at her new angst. " Alright alright, I'm sorry. " he sighed, getting comfortable in his chair. " I don't know Hermione. You know how all my past experiences have been. It was with one girl and I had to do all the work. It wasn't exciting at all. "

" True. I just thought that since Ron and you are best friends, that he might have hinted around to you what he might like. "

Suddenly, a thought struck Harry with such force that he almost winced. He looked to the distressed Hermione with a wide smile. " I know something you could try. "

Hermione was immediately on the edge of her seat. " What? "

" Take complete control. Dominate him utterly and torture the hell out of him. Get him so riled up to the point that he's almost ready to blow and then back off. You'll have him begging for release. " Harry smirked. He knew that it was an evil plan, but it would definately spice up Ron and Hermione's late night activites.

" Harry Potter. You're a genius. " Hermione laughed. " I'll try that tonight. "

With that, Hermione returned to her book and Harry set forth finishing his homework. He almost felt sorry for Ron, but he also remembered how he liked it when Serena took control of their little session the night before. She seemed to be a wildcat and he wanted to take full advantage of that eventually.

Finally, around noon, Harry was finished with his homework and slammed his Transfiguration book shut. His stomache grumbled and he remembered that he hadn't had breakfast that morning, he was starving. Alone, he made his way down to the great hall and found Ron and Hermione in a heavy discussion as they ate. He sat next to Hermione and helped himself to the Sheperd's pie and pumpkin juice at the table. He ate quietly, listening to Hermione go on and on about studying for the N.E.W.T's that were to take place that year. Ron was trying to no avail to convince Hermione to be less uptight and relax. She only accused him of being listless and to laid-back. Harry wondered to himself what exactly it was that kept those two together. It was true however, that when they though no one was looking, they were completely considerate and loving to eachother. Harry's thoughts were quickly deterred as the bench next to him quivered slightly and he turned to see Serena straddling the bench next to him.

" Hey gorgeous. " she purred, kissing his cheek.

Harry blushed, smiling. " Hey. What's up. "

" Nothing, just waiting to get my chance to see you today. I was hoping we could spend some more time together. "

" I can't think of a better way to spend my day. " Harry smiled, giving the girl and quick kiss. He leaned back and took in her outfit for the day. She wore a tight leather skirt that reached just above her knees with a pair of heeled lace up boots, Harry was silently graceful that she was shorter then him originally so the boots didn't make her taller then him. The outfit was topped off by a low cut, purple babydoll tee. He loved the way she looked in this type of clothing.

" Are you checking me out, Mr. Potter? " Serena feigned disgust, but had a small smile.

" I believe so, Miss Skylar. So what did you have in mind today? "

" I want you to meet my band and then come with us when we talk to Dumbledore about a concert. " She carefully changed her position so she was leaning her back against the table and crossed her legs. " I think it would liven up things around here. "

" Sounds like a plan. " Harry smiled.

" Great then let's get going. They're waiting outside in the courtyard for us. " Serena stood, and offered her hand to Harry. He took it without hesitation and the two made their way to the courtyard.

Harry blinked in the bright light that flooded the yard and waited for his eyes to adjust, when they finally did, he smiled to Serena'a bandmates.

" Usual introductions, Harry this is Kat, Leah, Damien and Mickey. Guys, Harry Potter. " she had pointed to each person as she said their names and the chorused a friendly hello. Harry gave a quiet hello and took a place next to Serena on a bench.

" They've been so anxious to meet you, since last night of course. After our little get together. I was hounded by Leah and Kat when I got back to the common room. " Serena explained.

" So what are your plans when you leave school, Harry. " Kat was the first to speak to him.

" I'm going into Auror training hopefully. " he replied.

" An Auror? That'd be really exciting. It's really dangerous thoguh. " she said softly.

" Look who you're talking too. " Leah rolled her eyes and Mickey nudged her side. " Oh, sorry. I didn't mean that the way it came out. "

" It's alright. No offense taken. " Harry smiled.

" You think Dumbledore will let us have the concert here? " Damien mused, talking to anyone who would listen.

Harry shrugged. " I couldn't tell you. It would certainly be interesting. "

" You like muggle music, Harry? " Serena asked, cuddling up to him slightly.

" I actually love it. Much better then some of the wizarding bands and shit. " Harry answered. " I like a lot of the new stuff. "

" Mmm...good. " Serena cooed softly

Harry spent the rest of the afternoon in the company of Serena and her friends. He found that they were the easiest people to get along with then he'd met so far. He loved listening to them talk, their accents were almost tantalizing, especially Serena's with that slight purr to it. Harry learned a great deal about the ways of American teenagers and their language was definately somewhat different. Harry found that he didn't understand some of their terms. Luckily, they were patient enough to explain things when he looked confused. When the sun started to sink and the horizon turned a brilliant shade of purple and pink, Serena decided it was time to meet with Dumbledore. She took Harry's hand and bid her friends goodnight before heading towards the stone gargoyle. She spoke the password and the gargoyle sprang aside, leaving the ascending staircase open. The two teens got on the staircase and Harry knocked on the Headmaster's door. It immediately opened and the two stepped inside. Fawkes let out a sound of greeting and Harry smiled. He reached up to pet the phoenix lightly. He'd always loved how pretty Fawkes was.

" A phoenix? I love them. " Serena smiled, and stroked Fawkes wing.

" To what do I owe the pleasure of this visit. " came Dumbledore's voice as he walked into the office.

" Good evening, Headmaster. " Serena smiled.

" Good evening Miss Skylar, Mr. Potter. "

" Professor Dumbledore, I have a request and I hope that you will at least take it into consideration. " Serena began.

Dumbledore took a seat at his desk and gestured for the other two to sit as well. " And what would that be? "

Serena and Harry sat. " I'd like permission to give a concert in the Great Hall. My friend and I have a band and we thought it'd be nice to give a performance for the students. " Harry was slightly surprised at how confident Serena sounded.

" Ah, I figured it would be something like that. " Dumbledore smiled and studied the two over his half moon spectacles. " And Mr. Potter came along to back up your request? "

" Just a little Professor. " Harry smiled faintly.

" Well I can honestly say that the idea sounds intriguing and I'm sure the students would love it. " Dumbledore went silent for a long while, and Serena was practically jittering waiting for his answer. " I think it can be arranged. Yes. "

Serena gave a great woot of excitement. " Thank you sir. Thank you so much. "

" You're most welcome Miss Skylar. I believe Holloween would be a good night. It's close to now. Right after the feast. "

" That sounds excellent. Thank you again. " Serena smiled and shook the Headmaster's hand profusely. They bid the Headmaster goodnight and left his office.

" I can't believe he gave the permission. " Serena cried, hugging Harry tightly.

Harry laughed and returned the hug. " I can't either. It's going to be really exciting. "

" I know. I can't wait. I would live my life on the stage if I could. " Serena exclaimed.

Harry laughed slightly at Serena's euphoria as they made their way along the corridors. Harry walked Serena to her dorm, squeezing her hand gently.

" I guess this is where we say goodnight then. " Harry said.

" I guess so. " Serena smiled, nuzzling Harry. It wasn't but a few seconds later that the two were engaged in another passionate kiss. Harry ran his hand through Serena's hair, loving the silky feel of it. They only broke the kiss when someone cleared their throat and they turned to see Professor Snape glaring at them.

" It's not necessary for such disgusting displays to be taking place in the corridors. I'm docking ten points from both of you. Yes, that means you Miss Skylar since that's the house you chose. " Snape finished as Serena opened her mouth to argue. " Don't let me catch you again. " In a whirl of dark robes, Snape disappeared down the hall.

" What a fucking prude. " Serena hissed.

" He's always been like that. " Harry said, rolling his eyes.

Serena smiled and turned to Harry. " Well I guess I'll say goodnight now. "

" Yeah night. "

Serena gave Harry another light kiss before entering her common room. Again, Harry made his way back to his dorm, feeling happier then ever.
