The next morning, Harry and Sarah were walking down to the Great Hall, when Hermione stormed up to them.
"I need to talk to my sister, in private, Harry. Can I? Or do you want to keep on clinging to her?" Hermione said, and Harry narrowed his eyes at her, and walked away.
"What was that abo--" Sarah started, but Hermione pinned her to the closest wall.
"What were you thinking!" Hermione hissed at her.
"What do you mean, 'What was I thinking'?" Sarah asked her.
"Moaning Myrtle said she wanted me too meet her in the bathroom the other day, and I did. She told me, Sarah!" Hermione said, still pinning Sarah to the wall.
"What did she tell you?" Sarah asked her, widening her eyes.
"She saw you and him! Eating each other's faces like there was no tomorrow!" Hermione hissed at her.
"That's all that happened." Sarah said.
"Apparantly not, she told me something else went on. She told me That you and Harry were in the bathroom. He found you crying in there. Then, he went into the stall with you, and that's how it all started! You sit on him, and he starts eating you like a lion eats a zebra! Same goes for you!" Hermione said angrily.
Sarah remained absolutely quiet, her face a bright shade of red. She stared hard at teh ground. People had started to gather.
"That's not the only thing! In fact, I don't think there's anything you didn't do with him! You guys did everything in the book! Maybe you even invented a few new things, too!" Hermione said, almost shouting, apparantly not knowing people were watching.
Sarah still remained dead silent. Her face was now a bright red. Tears formed in her eyes. Hermione still held her pinned to the wall. She looked up.
"Oh my god! Hermione you said that and people were watching! And listening!" Sarah snapped at her, now madder than she had ever been. Hermione turned around, and she, too turned a bright red.
"It serves you right! And in the condition you were in you still did it anyway! And I'm mad at Harry, too, for not trying to stop! He let it go! I won't be suprised if people start calling you names, li--" Hermione said, but was unable to finish. Sarah had punched her in the face, and squirmed out of her grasp. She stormed up the grand staircase, tears running down her face like mad, and went into the closest empty room, sat in the farthest chair from the front of the room, and the door, and starting sobbing.
Sarah went into the Gryffindor Common room after a little while. It was empty. She sat infront of the fire, still crying hard. She pulled her wand out of her pocket. Dragon heartstring, redwood, and nine inches. She pointed to herself, prepared to say an unforgivable curse, when Ron. Harry, and Hermione walked in the room, Hermione shouting at Harry.
"How could you do that to her!" Hermione said to Harry.
"Do what!" Harry asked her.
"You know exactly what you did!"
"I didn't do anything bad! And neither did she!"
"How do you know! I'd rather have her go out with anyone else right now rather than you, Harry! What you did was over the top stupid! And you let it go! You didn't even stop it!"
"What we do is none of your business!"
"She's my sister!"
"It doesn't matter!"
"Yes it does! What do you expect me to say? 'Oh, Sarah. You did absolutely nothing wrong! And especially in the condition you are in! It doesn't matter if anyone hurts you!'"
"I didn't hurt her! She's fine. And so am I."
"Really? I think you need a trip to the Mental Hospital."
"That's a nice thing to say, especially when you say your sister is going through a lot of problems with her mental health. Real nice."
"You should be talking!"
And as the two fought, Ron looked passed them, at Sarah.
"Sarah!" He shouted, running towards her.
"Avada Ked--" She started, but was stopped by Ron. He grabbed the wand out of her hand.
She stood up, and grabbed her wand back. She stared at the other three for a moment, her eyes still full of tears, that were also streaming down her face, and ran out, with a loud sob.
"We better go follow her." Ron said, "Before she kills herself."
Hermione and Harry nodded, as they ran out of the common room. They tried the first empty classroom without luck. The second one was locked.
"Oh my god...Alohomora!" Hermione shouted, and it opened automatically.
They found her, sobbing into her knees on the floor in a corner.
"Sarah! Please don't try that again!" Hermione said, running to her, Harry and Ron following.
"What do you care? You hate me, you yelled at me before, saying people were going to call me names, because of what I'd done. I might as well die." Sarah replied, showing them her tearstained face.
"We care about you a lot. Hermione's just under a lot of pressure and stress." Ron said.
"REALLY! I don't recall her being the one who cuts! The one who's been wanting to die ever since she was born! The one who's being sent home in three days because of suicidal reasons! And she shouted at me like I was a death eater about to kill Ron or Harry!" Sarah shouted at them.
"Sarah, I didn't mean to shout at you!" Hermione said, tears forming in her eyes now.
"You did a good job of making me sound like a total--" Sarah started, but was cut off by Hermione.
"I didn't mean to! I was frustrated! And I don't want everybody knowing about it!" Hermione said.
"Who cares?" Sarah said.
"You should! The whole school doesn't need to know about what you and Harry have been doing in between and during classes!" Hermione said back.
"Fred and George did a pretty good job of letting people know." Sarah said.
"They're just jealous, Sarah! Your letting yourself get carried away with this! Everyday!" Hermione replied.
"Wait a minute, what have Harry and Sarah been doing that I don't know about?" Ron asked.
"Myrtle told me they've been--" Hermione started, but looked down. Harry and Sarah were showing Ron a perfectly good example of what they'd been doing.
"Doing that." Hermione finished.
"They look like they're eating each other's faces off! Slow down you guys!" Ron said to them.
"Sorry!" Sarah said, stopping, "Just enjoying what might be my last time."
"You have four days left, Sarah! Including today!" Hermione said.
"I know." Sarah smirked.
"Bye!" Harry said to Hermione and Ron, and got up, and pulled Sarah up. The two walked out.
"Where are they going?" Hermoine asked Ron, but he just shrugged, and they walked to the common room.
Harry and Sarah were in the Room of Requirement.
"Ow! You bit me!" Sarah said to him, when they were in the same position as the last time they were in there. The same exact thing.
"Sorry." He said to her.
So it went on for a little while, only about half an hour this time.
After it was over, they were in the same exact clothing as last time, too.
They walked into the Gryffindor common room, and Sarah gasped.
"You little hypocrite!" She shouted, for Ron and Hermione were sitting on the floor, looking as if they were having a fight.
Hermione stopped immediately.
"Well..at least I wasn't in a bed! Like you!" Hermione snapped, as if she knew what Harry and Sarah were just doing, and stormed up the stairs to the girl's dormitory.
"Er..I guess..I'll just..go to bed." Ron said, and ran up the stairs to the boy's dormitory.
"That little hypocrite!" Sarah said, turning to Harry, who just smirked.
Monday came and went, and now, it was late on Tuesday night.
Sarah had aready packed.
"But you can't leave! We want you here!" Ron demanded.
"It's only a week, you can live. I'm leaving tomorrow morning, before anybody wakes up." Sarah said.
"Say hello to mum and dad for me, Sarah." Hermione said. Sarah nodded.
"I wish you didn't have to leave..." Harry said quietly. The other three nodded.
"It's for a good reason! Now, Ron and Hermione, can me and Harry be alone for ten minutes? I promise we won't do anything bad." Sarah said.
The two nodded, and they walked out, leaving Harry and Sarah alone.
"It's weird, you know. How they're sending you home." Harry said.
"I know. Less talking and more kissing good bye." Sarah said, ad he did. It only lasted two minutes.
"I don't want to leave, I'd rather stay here with you." Sarah said, and Harry nodded. He leaned back, and allowed Sarah to lean her head on his shoulder.
He took her hand and played with it.
Hermione and Ron snuck down, and watched from the stairway to the boy's dormitory.
"They're so good together." Ron said, in a mocking-Hermione voice.
"Oh, shut up." She snapped, "At least they aren't doing anything else. This is fine."
"What about what we did?" Ron asked her.
"That never happened, and they'll never find out. Ever." She replied.
"They've fallen asleep!" Ron said, pointing to Sarah and Harry. They had fallen asleep, Harry still holding her hand.
"Leave them alone. She needs this.." Hermione said, and Ron and Hermione separated
Very early the next morning, Harry woke up, Sarah still leaning on him, to a McGonagall standing in the doorway.
"What's going on here?" She asked.
"Oh, nothing, Professor. I guess we had fallen asleep talking, is all." Harry replied, shaking Sarah awake, who, seeing McGonagall, shot up in the air immediately, ran up the stairs to the girl's dormitory, and got her things, and brought them down.
"I'll be waiting outside the portrait hole. You have one minute." McGonagall said, and waved her wand. The bags rose into the air and followed her out of the common room.
"Oh, Harry!" Sarah said, small tears formed in her eyes as she flung herself on him. They kissed deeply for a minute.
"It's only for a week. Only for a week. I'll be back in a week." Sarah said, trying to hold back the tears that were now forming in her eyes.
"You'll be fine, don't worry." Harry said, giving her a hug.
"Ok, well, bye, for a little while." Sarah said, smiling at him a small teary smile, and disspaeared throught the portrait hole.
