Chapter 2: Love lives and Trelawney's complexion

Ron and Hermione had talked no more about the kiss on the cheek, but the others could tell there was something wrong because in Muggle Studdies, they didn't want to sit next to each other.

"Who can tell me how a muggle car functions?" asked Remus.

"I don't know, I just don't know. I can't remember, I'll never graduate from Hogwarts. What'll I do then, oh no I'll have to live on the streets!" Justin wailed.

"Ron, Hermione would you please take Justin up to Madame Pomphrey. Thank you." said Remus

With that the three students exited the classroom.

"Well, looks like an excellent time to look through my letters." said Zara pulling a small pile of letters.

"Let's see what problems people have." said Joey

"Who are you?" asked Zara "The normal Joey is never that nosy."

"Shut up Zar." said Joey as she began to read the first letter.

Dear Zara,
If your dad went back in time and slept under moonshine, would Dingbats all over go crazy?
Luna Lovegood

"Luna has always been a tad strange if you ask me." said Harry

"Hang about, how did a Ravenclaw hear about this?" asked Zara looking at her two friends.

"We handed out flyers." said Joey with a shrug.

"Next, letter." said Harry.

Dear Zara,
I'm worried about Professor Trelawny. How do I get her outside? Her complexion is horrid.
Parvarti

"Trelawney, outside. Perish the thought." said Zara pretending to faint.

"Yeah she'll predict that everyone is about to die." Harry laughed.

dear zara;

I'm in love with my best friend. I dont know what to do. Her father would kill me if I did anything. I dont think she likes me. She keeps hugging me like my friend's sister does to him, and it keeps making me sad. I do not make a good, lovestruck teenaged boy!

please, help

love from the boy-who-shall-not-be-named

Harry's eyes were now wide, he hadn't meant to send that. Oh no that can't be good, what if she guessed that it was him that sent it. No she wouldn't he put a spell on the parchment so that his hand writing was disguised. Harry started to relax.

"I can't help with this." said Zara.

"Why not!" said Harry a little to loud.

Remus looked at Harry, as Harry sunk down in his seat and Joey started to chuckle.

"Why not." whispered Harry when the class was back to normal.

"Because my amigo, I can't tell him what to do he has to follow his heart. If he thinks he loves her than he should tell her. There's nothing I can help hm with." explained Zara.

"Oh, I see." said Harry, "I guess your right." he finished, a hint of sadness in his voice.

"You alright mate?" asked Joey

"Yeah I'm fine." replied Harry smiling, but Zara could tell Harry was not alright, there was no smile in his eyes.

"Come on guys let's pack up, not long untill the bell goes." said Zara.

It was lunch time when the group was all together again. Hermione and Ron were looking happier. The five went and sat at Gryffindor table. Zara started to shovel food.

"Eww!" said Hermione, while the other laughed.

"What's the rush, mate?" asked Joey.

"Have to go to library, to find something." said Zara. "Hey, you two look happier." she finshed and shoveled another spoonful of food into her mouth.

"Yeah... um...Ron and I we're...we're going out." said Hermione quietly.

Ron put an arm around her and pulled her closer to him.

" 'ook ew am on enuf." said Zara spraying the table.

"She said took you damn long enough." Joey translated.

"Got to go guys, see you in Divination." said Zara as she drained the last of her pumpkin juice and left.

"So when are you and Zara getting together?" asked Ron

"What?" asked Harry

"I didn't stutter." said Ron

"For once ." said Joey

"I see Zara as a friend," said Harry. "And that's all she'll ever see me as." he finished.

The day had now ended and Harry was getting worried. Zara had not turned up for their last two lessons, and it was now getting late.

"Harry you say you practised but if I've just beat you three time you couldn't have." said Ron, he and Harry had been playing wizard chess.

"What...oh yeah practice." said Harry

"What's the matter Harry?" asked Joey.

"Zara's not back yet." said Harry getting up.

"Where are you going?" said Ron

"Maybe her Dad knows where she is." said Harry exiting the common room.

¬!"£$&()+

"Padfoot mate, you have pieces of paper in your hair." said James.

"Stupid kids keep throwing it at me." said Sirius.

"We were worse than that." said Remus

They heard a knock on the door.

"Come in." answered Remus.

"Hey Harry." greeted Sirius.

"Hey Sirius, um...do you know where Zara is?" asked Harry

"Yeah she's in the hospital wing, she was walking down the stairs she tripped and broke her leg badly." said Sirius but Harry never replied because he had set off for the hospital wing.

¬!"£$&()+

"Please Madame Pomphrey, I just want to see her." pleaded Harry

"Okay Mr.Potter, but not for long." she replied.

Harry walked into the room. He never really liked this place. It was to white for his liking. Then he spotted her, her black hair stood out against all the white..

He sat down next to her and watched her sleeping form.

¬!"£$&()+

Quite some time had passed, and Harry got up to leave.

He went and kissed Zara on the cheek, as he started to straighten a hand was at the back of his neck and pulled him back down.

Zara and Harry lips met as they shared a kiss. Her lips felt soft on his.

"Mr. Potter, out now ! Miss. Black needs her rest. Out now!" Madame Pomphrey screamed.

"Bye." Zara whispered.

Harry tried to say something but nothing would come out. So he left the room.

Just as Zara was making her self comfy she heard a whoop of happiness out is the coridor. She smiled to herself, and fell asleep.
