I'm going to let you all in on a little secret: I'm having trouble deciding how this story should end. What do you guys think? Send me a review and tell me how you think it should end.

A) Should Draco and Gia hook up and take Gabe and become a family?

B) Should Gia and Draco become friends and take care of Gabe together?

C) Or should Gia just take Gabe and remain forever pissed at Draco?

I don't know, you guys have to decide. I'll just write this chapter and hope that someone tells me what to do before I go completely insane. Wait, I think that's already happened. Oh well, just send me a review. And also, I don't own Harry Potter and friends. You guys know that whole story by heart, don't you?













































































Gia lounged quietly in her potions class as Professor Snape droned on and on about the importance of cleaning your cauldron. She glanced over at Hermione who was diligently taking notes and her gaze shifted over to Ron and Harry who were half asleep. She smiled as a trickle of drool slowly rolled down Ron's chin and then splattered onto the desk. She shook her head and looked down at a piece of empty parchment sitting on her desk. She hadn't noticed that it had been there a moment ago. She looked around her, but every student was somewhat paying attention to the lecture they were receiving. She looked back down at the parchment and mentally shrugged her shoulders. She reached over to her already inked quill and began entertaining herself.
'My name is Angelina Harper and I am the most beautiful girl in all of New York City.' She smiled down at her handy work before something strange happened. The sentence that she had just written dissolved into the paper and within seconds it was gone. She let her mouth hang open in wonder. Her eyes darted upwards to make sure that Professor Snape would not notice her and she carefully lifted up the paper. There wasn't a trace of ink on the back of the page or on the wooden table. She let the paper settle back down totally stunned. She looked where her sentence had been to see something else forming in its place.
'I wouldn't say that Ms. Angelina Harper.' Gia dropped her quill and stared wide eyed at the parchment. Soon, another sentence formed on the paper.
'What's the matter? Cat got your quill?' Gia glared down at the paper and looked around at the students at her side. All of them were writing down notes or not doing anything at all. This made Gia's blood boil. She looked back down at the parchment and grabbed her quill.
'Who are you and where are you?' she wrote down quickly. She waited a few moments after the ink dissolved and there was an immediate reply.
'I'm in your classroom right now just staring at you. Doesn't that send chills down you spine?' Gia bit her lower lip and shifted uneasily in her chair. The person continued to write.
'As for who I am, you'll just have to figure that out from our little conversation. I'll be sure to give you some easy clues to follow.' Gia let out a low growl from the pit of her stomach and clutched her quill tightly.
'You've got some nerve being as cocky as you are.' She angrily wrote to him. The ink steadily dissolved and yet again came up with another reply.

'You weren't saying that three years ago...' Gia's eyes bulged and she looked behind her to see Malfoy staring down at a piece of paper grinning like a mad man. His eyes darted up to meet hers and his grin widened. She quickly turned back to her piece of parchment.

'What do you want Malfoy?' she heard a small laugh behind her.

'You're smarter than you look, Harper. Potty and the Weasel were right, you have changed.'

'You talked to them?'

'More like they cornered me and forced our entire history out of me. Something along those lines.' Gia let out a loud sigh that Draco could obviously hear from his seat.

'I'm tired of this little game, I'm getting rid of the paper.' As Gia was about to fold the paper in half and stick it in her bag, another message quickly appeared.

'Get rid of the paper and you'll never see Gabrielle again.' Gia stopped in mid motion and her hands began to tremble. She heard Draco shift in his seat behind her. She carefully set the paper back down on her desk and re- inked her quill.

'What do I have to do to get Gabe back?' she wrote down hesitantly. As it had before, the ink slowly faded away; but this time, a response didn't come back. Gia's lower lip quivered as she felt the walls around her begin to crumble.

'Answer me Draco, before I make you pay for what you've done to me.' Gia threatened through the ink. She heard a small laugh come from behind her but she didn't look. She didn't dare look. To Gia's relief, a note began to appear on the paper.

'You're funny. I'll give you the little brat if you can do one thing for me.' Gia let out a heavy sigh. Why was she not surprised that Draco was asking for something?

'Gabe is not a brat. What do I have to do?' Gia bit her lower lip as the ink dissolved into the paper. She waited for a few moments until another note appeared.

'I'll let you know when I think of it.' Gia shook her head. Suddenly, the bell rang signaling the end of class. Gia jumped slightly in her seat but settled as students around her began to collect their books. Hermione came to stand next to her.

"Are you alright? You looked a bit shaky during class today." Gia nodded.

"Yeah, I'm fine. I'm surprised that you even noticed me." Hermione shrugged her shoulders.

"You're better than watching them." Hermione motioned over to Harry and Ron who were still asleep in their chairs. Hermione rolled her eyes and kicked Ron in the shin. He woke with a start hitting Harry on the head in the process. They both looked around with their eyes blurry. Ron rubbed the sleep from his eyes.

"Is class over already?" he asked sleepily. Hermione nodded and began to stride out of the classroom. Ron's eyes bulged and he quickly got up from his seat with his books in hand.

"Wait! You have to tell me the homework assignment! Hermione!" Ron ran out of the classroom and nearly knocked Gia down onto the floor. She sighed and tucked away her parchment quill and books. Harry came to stand beside her with a slight smile on his face.

"You ready to go to our next class?" he asked happily. Gia offered him a way-ward smile and nodded.

"I suppose, let's get going." With that, Harry and Gia left the dungeons and headed to the fifth floor for Defense Against the Dark Arts.

???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
The rest of the day passed quickly for Gia. The only thing that could stay on her mind was what had happened with Draco in their first class of the day. It had completely consumed her mind and had no plan of letting it go. She let out a sigh as she stared down at her bare plate.
"Gia, what's been troubling you all day?" Hermione asked very concerned. "You didn't eat anything at lunch and you refuse to eat any of your dinner." Gia shrugged her shoulders unenthusiastically.
"I'm just not hungry." She muttered to herself. Harry raised an eyebrow.
"That's not a very good excuse." He told her with stern eyes. She quickly stood up.
"It makes perfect sense to me. I'm not eating because I'm not hungry. End of story." Gia swung her legs over the bench and walked out of the great hall with Hermiones eyes following her.
"I think she's keeping something important from us." She whispered across the table to Ron. He rolled his eyes.
"Gee, you think?" he asked sarcastically. Hermione stuck out her tongue and looked at Harry.
"What do you think?" she asked him. He shrugged his shoulders.
"Something is wrong with her, but she obviously doesn't want to talk about it right now so I just say that we should drop it." Hermione raised an eyebrow.
"Drop it?" she asked. Harry nodded a few times and took a bite of his kidney pie.
"Yes, I believe that we should just let her be. This is her way of dealing with whatever it is that she's dealing with." She sat down with a flop and sighed. She rubbed her sore temples.
"We can't just leave her alone. Who knows what would happen if we left her alone for too long?" Ron stuffed a large spoonful of mashed potatoes into his mouth.
"I agree with Harry." He said with a muffled voice. He finally swallowed the potatoes. "She just needs her alone time like all girls need." Hermione let out a small chuckle. Ron cocked an eyebrow.
"What's so funny?" he asked roughly. Hermione giggled and shook her head.
"Since when do you know so much about girls?" Ron narrowed his eyes.
"I hang out with you, don't I?" Hermione nodded and pushed away her plate. Ron's eyes darted down hungrily.
"Are you going to finish that?" he asked eagerly. Hermione rolled her eyes.
"Don't you think that if I push my plate away, that's my way of saying that I'm done?" she asked. Ron furrowed his brow.
"Is that a yes?" Hermione sighed and shook her head.
"Yes, you can finish it." A broad smile crossed Ron's face and he pulled her plate onto his own empty one. He began to shovel the remaining food into his mouth. Harry smiled at his friend.
"Don't you ever stop eating?" he asked. Ron looked up from his meal and shook his head innocently. He quickly went back to his meal. Harry looked across the hall to notice that Draco had just strutted away from the Slytherin table and was headed out the doors. He narrowed his eyes.
"Where do you suppose Malfoy's going?" he asked. Hermione and Ron both looked up to see Draco's back as he left the great hall. Hermione shrugs her shoulders as Ron takes another bite of kidney pie.
"Maybe he's going to do homework or something like that?" Hermione questioned. Ron let out a laugh while in the process letting a few bits of chewed up food out of his mouth.
"Are you kidding me? Malfoy doing homework? That's right ushered. Have you gone mad Hermione?" in a childish act, Hermione stuck out her tongue at Ron and immediately after slouched in her seat.
"That's not funny," she mumbled to herself. Harry smirked and pushed away his plate. He stood up and looked down at his two friends.
"I don't know about you two, but I'm going to go and follow Malfoy." Hermione let out an aggravated sigh.
"Aw, come on Harry! This has detention for the rest of our lives written all over it." Harry shook his head.
"I told you that you don't have to go with me." Ron immediately stood up and whipped his face off with his sleeve.
"I'll go with you Harry." He announced proudly. Harry nodded in his direction and then looked down at Hermione.
"Are you sure that you want to stay here?" he asked. Hermione raised an eyebrow.
"Hmm, let's see. What are my choices? I could go up to the common room and just do MY homework or I could go with you two, which would probably get me expelled. Let's think hard on this one." Harry shook his head and rolled his eyes.
"Fine, you can go to the common room and do your homework." Ron and Harry quickly rushed out of the great hall with Hermione gawking at them. Ron glanced over at Harry with happy eyes.
"You really pissed her off, you know that right?" Harry smirked and nodded.
"Planned the entire thing."

Gia ran a hand through her tousled purple and red hair and let out a deep sigh.
'They just don't understand,' she thought to herself. 'I'm just not hungry, end of story! Bye bye, see you later!' she let out another sigh and carefully turned a corner to go up to the Gryffindor common room. She let her eyes glance over all of the moving portraits in the long hall. Unknown to her, someone was following her and was getting very close to catching her. She stopped in front of a rather small portrait of a woman holding a small child (A/N: You all know the one that I'm talking about! I saw it in the last Harry Potter movie and now I'm putting it into my story!). She reached up and lightly skimmed her fingers along the golden frame. The woman smiled down at her and then concentrated on the baby in her arms. It was a chubby little toddler with sweeping brown and blonde hair. He was nestled into the crook of his mother's elbow and was sleeping away. Gia smiled at him as he let out a tired little yawn. He reminded her so much of her little Gabe. The woman cradled the baby in her arms and let out a small yawn of her own. She began to sway back and forth to keep her little boy asleep. Suddenly, a pair of arms twirled Gia around and slammed her up against the wall. She let out a little whimper of pain and slowly looked up to be met by the cold eyes of Draco Malfoy. She grimaced.
"What do you want with me, Malfoy?" she asked him coldly. He let his infamous smirk grace his lips.
"I figured out what I want from you." He announced proudly. Gia tried to pry her hands away from his but his grip tightened and he forced her more into the wall. She let out a little grunt of frustration.
"And what, prêt ell, do you want from me?" she asked still struggling against him. He leaned down towards her ear and lightly blew into it. She let a little shiver go up her spine and she instantly stopped her struggling.
"What do you want, Draco?" she asked him cautiously. He smirked and leaned closer to her ear.
"I want..."

That's not as long as my other chapters, but I can live with that. I've had a lot of other things on my mind and I had to work really hard to upload my story. I hope that you like it! Demon of the Wind
