Chapter 7: Angel's Fear

"Oh gods that was hard!" Ron said when he sat down on a bench for lunch. "How in the bloody world am I supposed to remember what a slug is used for for over half the potions we learned so far? God! I think Snape's trying to kill us or something to that direction!"

"Oh shut it Ron! It's your fault for staying up past midnight studying! And besides, the test was easy. I can't believe you don't know what the slug is for in all our potions. Honestly!" Hermione exclaimed sitting across from Ron and Harry.

"Uh….. Hermione….. I'd have to agree with Ron here, it was pretty hard. But it's you not me, so it's easy to you, but that question on the slug and what it's used for was really easy. It's to thicken the potion, at least that's what I remember." Harry said, grabbing for some chicken.

Hermione smiled. "That is precisely correct Harry."

"What! Is that really what the slug was used for? Just for thickening? Ugh…. I put down like five different things and none of them was thickening the bloody potion! Argh!!! I'm gonna die if I have to go through potion for the next month!" Ron yelled throwing up his hands then dropping his head on the table. "OW!"

"You know Ron we are going to be taking potions the whole year so lets hope what you say doesn't come true. Now if you don't mind I am going to the library to look up on the Pegasus's for homework before class starts. I'll see you later. Bye" Hermione said then walked towards the entrance of the Great Hall and turned toward the library.

Harry just stared at Ron who was unfortunately hitting his head on the table continuously.

"Um….. Ron you should probably stop doing that not unless you want to lose more brain cells…. Which I think is not a good idea." He didn't listen so Harry said good-bye and that he'll see him next hour then left the Great Hall.

He was walking toward divinations class when he turned a corner and ran right into someone falling right on top of them. When he could finally see straight he looked right in the face of Angel. He scrambled off of her and trying to gather his stuff.

"I'm sorry" he kept repeating while picking up his stuff then trying to help Angel with her things.

"Hey! Hey! It's ok! Jeesh; no need to go freaking out on me." She exclaimed while grabbing her things from Harry then realizing it was Harry said. "Oh! Hey Harry."

"Hey. Um….. sorry for running into you. I wasn't paying attention."

"Oh. It's ok."

"So….. Um….. What's your next class?" Harry said grabbing his things off the floor.

"Um……. History of Magic. Never cared much for the subject actually, and plus I think I will fall asleep listening to the professor talk."

Harry laughed. "True. Well do you want to walk together since I'm going the same way?"

She smiled. "Yeah, I'd like that," and they started walking towards they're classes.

After a couple of minutes of silence Harry asked "so….. Do you know your score yet for your O.W.L.S?"

"Yeah, I got a hundred. The test was easy and I also took the N.E.W.T.S test and that was also easy as well."

Harry was awestruck. "Whoa. You serious, I had trouble on both of them. Hey! You might even be smarter than Hermione! Wow……. There's something right there." He grinned thinking about it.

Angel laughed. She has a nice laugh Harry thought to himself.

"Well I'll see you later Harry" Angel said then walked toward her class.

"Bye."

"Uh…….. Harry what the bloody hell was that?" Ron said behind him.

"Oh…… Um, is it an issue if I talk to her?"

"Let me think for a minute Harry………. Uh yes. She is a Slytherin! But I have to say she is a really nice and good looking Slytherin I might add." Ron said then shook his head. "I am just curious though, how are you always going after girls who have Asian in they're blood?"

Harry shrugged. "I don't know. I just find them…….. I don't know." Then walked toward divination room; Ron running after him.

After that he and Angel would walk together to they're classes if they are going to the same direction, talking about what happened to them that day and what they are going to do in one of they're classes that the other one didn't have yet.

A couple weeks later Harry found Angel in an empty class room after dinner. She was in a corner with her knees drawn up to her chest, her head hiding behind her knees.

"Angel?" Angel looked up. Harry saw a scared look on her face before she turned her head to look in another direction.

"Angel what's wrong?" Harry said when he was walking toward her slowly. She didn't answer.

"Angel?" Harry said squatting down next to her.

"Nothing Harry. Its nothing" she muttered then slowly turned her head toward him, her face having showing no fear in it. She looked tired, like she hasn't had sleep in days. Harry sat down next to her.

After a train of silence went by Harry couldn't stand it anymore.

"Angel what is wrong? You look like you haven't had sleep in days, you haven't been at the Great Hall for like the whole week, you haven't met me to walk to classes together the whole as well, and when you turned your head towards me when I came in you looked……. Scared." Angel just looked away.

After a moment she spoke. "I'm sorry Harry. I just got news about something…….. In the beginning of… the week and I….. I don't know….. I just couldn't believe it…." Quietly she said to herself, "Dumbledore promised that he couldn't find me here….."

Harry didn't understand what she meant…… It's like she was hiding from something. After awhile Harry said "Angel, what are you so afraid of?" Angel sat there quietly for awhile, not wanting to speak then very quietly she said the one thing she was afraid of, "my father….."
