A/N: I've had a break-through! My writers' block is over! Now, the long-awaited chapter twelve; 'Sweet Sixteen, Part Two'. Plus, the story takes place in '96/'97, but the songs are present-day. Just thought I'd say that.
Jamie's POV
I was walking through the halls after my detention, when I heard muttered talking. I raised an eyebrow, and walked toward the noise. I could hear the conversation.
"Is it this way, or this way?" A voice asked.
"I dunno." The same voice said. I heard a smacking noise.
"Then help me, Fred!" The voice said.
"We went here for almost seven years, George. We should be able to find our way to Gryffindor Tower!" The voice, Fred, said. My eyes widened and I smiled.
"Fred and George." I mouthed. I rounded the corner to see the twins standing there, looking as lost and confused as ever.
"Weasleys, do you need help getting to Gryffindor Tower?" I asked. They looked at me.
"How do you know our language?" One of them asked.
"George!" His twin hissed, "I'm Fred, he's George, and how do you know that we're Weasleys? We might be Blacks, for all you know." Fred said sarcastically.
"Red hair, freckles, and more children than your parents can afford. I don't think she needs to be told twice." I heard the cold voice of Draco say behind us. George's hand balled into a fist, but he released it.
"Draco Lucius Malfoy!" I said coldly, turning around, "Apologize!"
"Jamie Elizabeth Venberg!" He mimicked my voice.
"Liz Venberg? That's how you knew who we were, through Ron and Ginny." George said. Fred's eyes widened.
"You're Harry's girl!" Fred said. I stared at him.
"I'm no one's girl." I said, "Nos Vemos, Drake." I said, walking to the right staircase to take us to Gryffindor Tower.
"Oh, yeah!" Fred and George said in unison. I smiled. Finally, we got to Gryffindor Tower.
"Lions' breath." I said the password, and we were in.
"RONALD BILIUS AND GINEVRA MOLLY WEASLEY, I THINK THESE BELONG TO YOU!" I shouted at the top of my lungs.
"Your middle name is Bilius?" Hermione said while cracking up.
"How in BLOODY HELL did you know that?!" Ron said, giving me 'the eye'.
"Eeh, I just know peoples' middle names." I said.
"What's mine?" Hermione asked. I stared at her for a while.
"Jane." I finally said.
"Damn, she's good!" Hermione said.
"What belongs to us?" Ginny asked.
"These." I simply said, moving aside so the twins could step through.
"Fred, George! What are you doing here?" Ginny asked, hugging her older identical twin brothers.
"Dropped in for a visit." Fred said. He spotted Harry coming down the boys' dormitory staircase.
"Oi, Harry!" George shouted.
"Hey Fred, George!" Harry said. The night wore on. Ron and Hermione didn't know it was my birthday, so Ginny told them and they totally freaked. Fred and George didn't know either, but they didn't call themselves 'Bloody freakin' moronic prats' because of it, Hermione conjured up a cake for me, and Fred and George had taken a liking of calling me 'Lizard'. I avoided them for the rest of the night. Finally, it was time for Fred and George to leave.
"Bye Ron, Ginny, Harry, Hermione, Maci, and Lizard." George said. I rolled my eyes, and decided to just let them call me that.
"Bye." Everyone said. I waved.
"Well, I'm going to bed." Hermione said. Everyone, except Harry and I, agreed with her.
Harry scooted next to me when everyone was up in their respective dormitories.
"Hey, Liz." He said, with a grin. I smiled.
"Hey, Harry." I said. We sat in total silence for about five minutes.
"I don't know how to say what I want to say." Harry said after a while.
"Well, I usually sing it, or find a song that describes my feelings when that happens to me." I said. He looked like he was thinking for a minute, then opened his mouth and sang.
"People tell me, 'You stay where you belong',
But all my life I've tried
To prove them wrong
They say I'm looking for
Something that can't be found
They say I'm missing out
That my feet don't touch the ground" He sang. I knew the song, Nick Carter's 'I Got You'. So, I cut into the next part of the verse.
"But there are moments
When you can't deny what's true
Just an ordinary day
Like when I met you" In the chorus, he sang lead, and I sang harmony.
"It's funny how life can take new meaning
You came and changed what I believed in
The world on the outside is trying to pull me in
But they can't touch me
'Cause I got you
I got you" He sang the next verse.
"I want to thank you
For all of the things you've done
And most for choosing me
To be the one" He sang. We sang the chorus just like we did the first time.
"It's funny how life can take new meaning
You came and changed what I believed in
The world on the outside is trying to pull me in
But they can't touch me
'Cause I got you" We sang.
"And it hits me when I reach for you
That I'm afraid you won't be there
Maybe I am in too deep
But I don't care" He sang.
"I'm right where I belong" I sang.
"I got you" Harry sang.
"I want to prove them wrong" We both sang.
"I've got you, yeah" He sang.
"You can't deny what's true no" We both sang.
"They can't touch me, baby" He sang.
"I got you
I got you
I got you baby" He sang.
"You can't deny what's true" I sang.
"No, they can't touch me
'Cause I got you" He finished. We stared into each others' eyes for a while.
"Liz, I think I may love you." Harry said sarcastically. I laughed.
"Well, Harry, I think I may love you also." I said. We kissed and went to bed.
A/N: I just HAD to put that song in there, even if Harry is singing parts of it. I first heard it, and I was like, "This is Harry's life story, if he ever falls in love…" LOL! Well, I am sorry that I haven't updated in a full month! I have had writers' block. Sara's been helping me, but what really helped me was the World Book Day Q&A with JK Rowling transcript. If you don't know the song, I said it after Harry sang part of the first verse. If you haven't heard it, download it, or get Nick Carter's CD 'Now Or Never'. Venberg out!
