Harry Potter and the Snowdrop Bride
Chapter 10-Findings
Kye stayed be Meghan's side the whole night. He awoke the next morning to find Meghan staring at him. Her eyes were still lost but today a shadow lurked behind it instead of a whirlpool. Almost as if hiding. "Meghan? Do you feel better?" Kye asked. Meghan only nodded. "Will you tell me what's troubling you? What happened?" Kye said. Meghan opened her mouth but nothing came out. She tried again and said "erotrot." Kye only said "what?" confused. It was as if she had forgotten how to talk. She tried again-slowly "T-o-r-t-u-r-e" she sounded out stuttering. "Torture?" Kye repeated. Meghan nodded. Kye was angry now, but he softly said "Meghan, I'm sorry. I'm sorry I couldn't protect you after I swore I would. Can you forgive me?" Meghan nodded. "Thank you" Kye said hugging her. "They-they tortured me. Abused me. They to-to-toyed with my emotions and used me as if I was a pup-pup-puppet." Meghan said barely in a whisper a tear flowing down her cheek. Kye hugged her again and said "It's ok. Do what ever you want now. You're free of them for now" He said softly. Meghan just cried on his shoulder, holding his shirt as Prof. Dumbledore walked in. "you're back I see. Kye, I kindly ask you to be with Meghan MOST of the day. Incase she needs to get something off her chest she doesn't want to share freely. You shall also escort her in and out of her dormitory." Kye nodded and Prof. Dumbledore left. It was just about Lunch time when Meghan was getting color in her face again. Madame Pomfrey insisted that they go to class. Seeing her friends might cheer her up. Just as they got inside Gryffindor dormitory, and near the stairs, Meghan turned to Kye and whispered "Kye, Please kiss me." Kye was shocked and said "Why?" "Because it would make me feel better" she said. Kye leaned forward and put his lips against hers. His tongue entered her mouth as he put his hands on her arms. A small breeze came through a slightly opened window and Meghan's hair was blown a little.
"What the hell is going on?" came Harry's voice from the door. They separated and Meghan hid behind Kye, and gripped his shirt lightly. "Why do you care?" Kye said. "Because she's my friend! Besides, why are you in here anyway?" Harry said. "I'm aloud to be" Kye snapped. "Says who?" Harry said testily. "Prof. Dumbledore! That's who!" Meghan was still hiding behind Kye. "Meghan? Why are you hiding behind him? He's in Slytherin!" Harry said/shouted. She didn't answer. "Fine!" Harry said and stormed out. "Why didn't you answer him?" Kye asked calmly. "I-I over heard-well was forced to hear-something's about people. Besides, since what happened, I-I can't trust boys that much" Meghan said. "Then why me?" Kye said. "I love you! You know that! I feel calm and safe when I'm with you" She answered. Kye smiled.
Harry's POV
Just after he had stormed out
'Why the hell is she hanging out with him? He could be against her for all we know. Ugh! Why does she cling to him and not me? Now that she's back, I'm happy to see her, but she seems scared of me. But why?' Harry thought as he turned into the Great Hall. He sat down across from Hermione and next to Ron. "Harry, what's wrong? You seem frustrated" Hermione said. "I am." He said leaning forward so no one would hear what he was going to tell them "I went to the dormitory to see if Meghan was there⦠and she was." "What's so bad 'bout that mate?" Ron said. "On Meghan and KYE kissing" Harry said. Ron and Hermione were shocked at what Harry just told them. "When I asked her why she was hiding behind him, she didn't answer. I only saw her head, but she didn't look so good." Harry said. "So what, you think Kye did it to her?" Ron said. "Not really. But after all, she was fine yesterday" Harry said. "Well, we always do a polyjuice potion. You can find out what you can from Meghan." Hermione suggested. "Hey! That's a great idea" Ron said. "I have one already made. I was going to try to find stuff about Malfoy, but your need is greater than mine" Hermione said. "Thanks" Harry said. "Ok, so all we need is some of Kye's hair, and Meghan's" Hermione said. "Why Meghan's?" Ron asked. "We need to get rid of Kye so he won't interfere" Harry said. "Exactly" Hermione responded. It was night time when
Hermione got a lock of Meghan's hair. But for Harry to get Kye's, it was difficult. They did it during Divination when he had spaced out. "Add the hairs" they added the hairs and Harry and Hermione took a gulp of the potion. Its taste was vial due to most of the ingredients. Hermione's skin got bubbly and she turned into Meghan as Harry turned into Kye. Hermione went to keep Kye busy as Harry went to get some information.
