Gabriel helped Moria to her feet. He looked at her. His eyes were a light purple, why Moria had noticed them then instead of before, she didn't know. Everything about him came to life and stirred something inside of her. Almost like she had awoken and she was seeing him for the first time. His touch was hot on her skin, even through all of her clothes. It seemed to be getting hotter until Moria couldn't take it. Gabriel leaned in to kiss her but she pulled away from him fast, picked up her books and ran down the hall. Leaving Gabriel to wonder what happened, what he ha done wrong. When Moria got back to her dorm she threw her books by her night stand. She looked around, everyone was sleeping. So Moria curled up on her bed and cried herself to sleep.

The next morning Moria was woken up by someone throwing rocks at the window. She walked over and looked out; she saw two figures standing with their hand on their hips. Moria opened the window and looked down to see Fiona and Jade standing below her window.

"Come on Moria get dressed!" Jade yelled.

"Jade, be quiet people are still sleeping," Fiona said then she looked up, 'Moria come on we're going to Hogsmeat today, you promised us you would go. And you said you were coming back last night and you never did.'

'Sorry, change of plans. I needed the sleep.' "I'll be right down," Moria called so Jade could know what was going on.

Moria got dressed in her tight blue jeans, boots, tee shirt, and her dark red Maine sweatshirt. She made her way to the great hall. Fiona and Jade sat at the Slytherin table. Moria joined them.

"Bout time, your really slow Moria," Jade said watching Draco down at the other end of the table.

"So we are going into Hogsmeat, because?" Moria asked taking half of Fiona's muffin.

"HEY!" She shrieked slapping Moria's hand. Moria only rolled her eyes and levitated one from the plate that was four feet from her.

"Here ya go Fiona," she said smiling at her batting her eyes.

"Stop that, it's not like you. Hey what happened last night?"

"Nothing, I was tired that's all," Moria smiled, but that smile faded when she looked to see Gabriel walk into the great hall. Gabriel stopped and looked at her; he gave a small wave but stopped when Moria turned her head. She took a deep breath.

"Moria? Moria!" Fiona was yelling at her and shook her arm. "Moria are you ok? You don't look so good."

"Yes, listen to the leprechaun you American," Draco said coming over to them.

"I might talk like an American but I was born British and a true blooded witch," Moria hissed at Draco who in turned backed off and sat a good distance from the three of them.

"Well Moria is acting like herself, snapping at the Ferret," Jade looked around. By now most everyone was up and coming into the great hall for breakfast.

"Come on, let's leave. I don't like being around this many people," Jade said getting up and making a mad dash for the door. Fiona and Moria followed her and walked casually out the door.

"So what is going on?" Fiona asked pushing Moria by the shoulder to face her. "Moria you're not yourself, what happened?"

"Nothing Moria, if anything happened I will tell you in time, but nothing has happened yet. So bug off," Moria said walking pass her friend.

"Moria if you are going to be this way-"

"Fiona I hate it when people pry into my life, you know that."

"But I thought you would always let me in."

"Right now is neither the time nor the place," Moria said with a straight face.

"Why?" Fiona asked searching Moria's eyes.

"Because Jade has just fallen into the lake, again." Moria watched as Fiona turned to see their friend in the lake once again. They laughed as Jade flopped around. Fiona gave a wave of her hand and Jade was standing next to them, dry.

"Moria, Moria," A voice sung softly to her. Moria turned all about trying to find where the voice originated from. But she found herself humming along and swaying with the beat of her name.

"Moria? Moria?" She was pulled from her trance, and just as soon the music and singing stopped. "Moria please, what is it? What do you hear?"

Moria only shook her head. "Come let's go to Hogsmeat." The three friends walked off towards Hogsmeat.

Once inside Hogsmeat and away from the Hogwarts castle Moria seemed a bit more at ease. She was open; she was singing and dancing with everyone who asked. She had many butter beers and lots to eat. She was truly happy.

But when it came time for them to leave and go back Moria sluggishly left. She walked behind looking with great displeasure upon the castle.

Night had fallen and Moria sort of struggled along the hallways with Jade and Fiona. She was always on her toes for any sounds.

Then one came, a mans voice calling to her, "Moria, Moria my dear," It said and contained to coon, "Moria, my love. We have work to do, you're dueling and spells need work. As well as your charms and potions. We don't want Snape getting mad at us do we?" Moria turned all about looking. "Do fear me Moria I am a fried, one to be trusted. Trust me Moria, my love."

Moria looked down the hall to see that Jade and Fiona were at the end of the hallway. Moria took one last look before running away. She ran to her room but he was there, she ran to the library he was there too, even the great hall. She could not excape.
