Disclaimer: I don't own any of the H.P. characters but the plot is mine. Have no money......dirt poor.....don't sue.

Summary: Harry is in his sixth year at Hogwarts and he is plagued with nightmares. He also gets a surprise visit from some old and unknown souls. Friend or Foe. Who Knows? What's going on? R/R to find out.

A/N: This chapter is very vague for good reason. Since the events in this chapter could refer to a couple of different couples, it is up to you to figure out who it is….or wait until next chapter. Hehehe…..I know I'm evil but this will definitely worth it. Good Luck and tune in soon for more.

For those of you who know me, I wrote most of this for my friends Lisa and AJ. What a cute couple you are...Anyways, I decided it would fit perfectly in my story. See if you recognize everything. I am off now to work on clarifying the events in this chapter and work on the stories I have posted.

Flamers only keep me warm…enjoy.

Chapter 14 (Tender Kisses)

Tender kisses, Sweet feelings, Eternal love. Together they were one, apart they were not whole. If one was gone, the other was lost. It was a chance meeting, through hormones, that lead to a soul mate.

No one said it would last. No one believed in either of them. Each defended the other and kept their eyes on each other. He was her strength and she was his life.

Together, they were unbeatable. Apart, they were even stronger as each made their way to each other. Through thick and thin he held strong and she followed. Neither would give in, neither would leave.

Her heart was his and never a second thought as to how she knew it was him. That instinct, the rollercoaster ride her insides took when he came over, the look of love in his eyes. Whatever it was, it told her everything she needed to know. She was sure.

He was as sure as she was but his sight clouded. He didn't know how to go about it. He was nervous that he'd screw up, afraid he'd go wrong. He didn't want to lose her so he let her lead. His heart lay in the right place, his feelings true. He was a gentle man who wanted nothing more than her to look at him with the same admiration and care he had for her. He could see it, feel it, but had trouble showing it without second guessing himself.

Over time, he moved more smoothly and went with what felt right. He moved with grace only possessed by gods and was a gentleman. Never vulgar, never uptight, just a boy. He was a simple guy who fell hard for a girl that took away the very breath that gave him life and one he would never, could never, take his eyes off of.

No secrets hung between them. No hearts that could be broken. No one willing to give up what they had found. The world didn't matter anymore, for they were in one of their own. A world where the two of them were in perfect harmony. A world of beauty, unmatched to that they held within. He was in the midst of perfection with her and she was in heaven around him. It was the perfect pair. Only found by a rare few. That is until... the unthinkable happened.

She stumbled around the grounds. Hurt by their words and missing her love. Those people were not her friends. They tried to take him, to separate the happy couple. No one could understand what they felt.

She only blamed herself. It was her fault for bringing him into this. She couldn't help who she was or that they hated her. She shouldn't have let him save her.

Frozen by fear, she couldn't move. Everything around her was spinning, except him. To think she knew the people who did this. They had no remorse and would have done the same to her if Peeves hadn't shown up. A prankster he may be, but he knew what was wrong and scared them away. As soon as he saw her breathing slow greatly hefloated off to fetch a teacher.

She dragged herself over to him. It was painful but nothing compared to what her heart was feeling now. She had lost the one thing she held dear. The one thing that kept her going when things got rough.

Her tears fell silently on an expressionless face. Laying there, bathed in blood, his hands by his side. Whoever said DEATH looks peaceful never experienced it themselves. It is only cold, empty, and dead. There is no peace or serene sense about them.

His eyes were a pasty blue and still filled with the fear from his death. They cried out to no one and apologized for everything. Lifeless, he lay. This was not something any person should have to go through.

"I'm sorry." She whispered gently as she placed a single kiss on his cold face.

No, he wasn't gone. This wasn't him. He didn't run off on another wild chase to defend her. He hadn't fallen protecting her at the hands of her own family. No, it couldn't be. Tears filled her eyes.

Wishing would never her bring him back and he was gone. But maybe not. She was told never to use this potion but there was no choice.

"Please, leave it alone. I don't care what they think." She begged him not to go. Anything, but he could not stand by and let them do that.

"I have to. I'll be back." He smiled at her and gave a kiss goodbye. With his wand drawn, he ran.

She followed without his knowledge. It was to hard to sit and worry. Nothing took her mind off it. He could take care of himself but they had meant business. It wasn't just another meaningless taunt.

Her eyes blurred with tears. Her mind become unclear. The rest was a dull nightmare that dimmed more and more as the potion slid down her throat.

Professor Snape showed up just in time to see her collapse on the lifeless boy. Her breathing gone, her eyes closed, and her body filled with bruises.

A pink aura surrounded the two students. It flowed from her to him and her heart now only kept up with the will of love and survival. An unspoken wish could be heard. She wanted to see him one more time. To feel his warmth one more time. To kiss his soft lips once again.

The pink aura mixed with a faint blue. The stronger it got, the weaker hers was. Only one boy could save the two of them. But would he stumble across them in time.

This was right to her. Nothing would stop her from doing this. He was to young to die and she couldn't live without him. It was up to her. Let the light flow beyond the here and now. Let it lead him back from the darkness that awaited him. Only on would make it but neither could live without the other. Their souls clung with every ounce of strength they had left.

She loved him and if it meant her life to save him...So be it.

A/N: Hope you all take me up on the challenge. See if you can figure out who I was talking about. I know this chapter was sad, or at least it was for me, but bear with me. It was here for a reason. It is not a useless as it may seem. There are hints in here to tell you who it is but it is very subtle. Good Luck my reviewers.
