Year 6, post 2! Abroad The Hogwarts Express
That one week past a lot quicker than he thought. Before he knew it, he was on the Hogwarts Express, looking for a compartment to sit in. He found all of his friends near the end of the train. He joined them, sitting on the same row as Jade. She was curled up in the corner against the window asleep. She jerked awake when the train started moving.
She yawned. "Hello." She said to everyone. She closed her eyes again and put her head against the window. It was very uncomfortable, the window vibrated as it moved. Everyone was laughing and talking loudly. Ten minutes later Jade got up and left. Everyone became silent then.
"What's with her?" Peter asked.
"I'll find her." Said Sirius. "Don't worry about it." He got up and left the compartment as another door closed. It was a few compartments down, at the very end. Sirius walked over to that door and opened it. Inside was Jade, fully stretched out on the seats and eyes closed, trying to sleep. He closed the door softly and sat down across from her, watching her as she breathed. She was so beautiful, and yet, she looked ill. Summer holidays had just ended but she was somehow paler than ever. Her usual few freckles had disappeared and she was thinner than ever. She was sleeping now for sure.
'Hmm....' thought Sirius. 'If you're a metamorphmagus can't you control how thin or fat you get? Surely Jade would never change herself to look THIS thin.' and then Sirius realized; The only thing she ever hides is her hair colour and her eye colour. Sirius imagined her with her long black hair. She would look even paler then.
Jade turned right around in her sleep so she was no longer facing Sirius. She hit the air with her hand and muttered something in her sleep. Sirius looked out his window, scenery flashing by him.
"Stop!" Jade yelled. Sirius looked at her. Her body shuddered.
"What are you talking about Lorien?" He said.
"STOP! No! I SAID STOP!" Jade yelled again. Sirius stood up. A second later Jade sat up bolt right, taking in a sharp, cold breath. Tears were streaming from her face and she wiped them away.
"Jade! Are you- are you alright?" She turned to look at Sirius, she did not know how long he had been standing there and had not noticed him before now.
"How long have you been here?" She asked standing.
"What? I- listen, are you ok? You were yelling at someone in your sleep." He responded.
"I fine, it was just a dream, now how long have you been here for?" She demanded as she sat down again.
"A while, since you fell asleep." He sat down too, though across from her. She was looking out the window at a very boring forest. "So.... How was your summer?" He asked, trying to brake the awkward silence. She did not respond. She just stared out her window and shivered. It was very warm out though. Her expression was dark and unreadable, she seemed to be very far away and a single tear threatened it's way out of her eye. She wiped it away before it reached far. She shivered again. Sirius reached into his pocket and pulled out a small piece of linen. He transfigured it in to a blanket. He got up, rapped it around Jade and then sat down beside her, rubbing her back for a moment.
"Are you ill?" He asked her.
"No." She responded.
"Do you want a glass of water?"
"No."
"Are you alright?" Sirius asked her, still very concerned.
"No."
"Well then what's wrong?"
"No." Sirius was very confused and wondered about the constant 'no's he was getting from her.
"Who do you think will be the new DADA teacher?" he asked her.
"No." Something was DEFINATELY wrong now but there was nothing Sirius could do for Jade. 'What a wonderful reunion!' He thought to himself, feeling frustrated.
