When Alexa woke up, she half expected to be somewhere not in Hogwarts with Tara who would have some kind of cryptic message. But no, instead she woke up to Kat and Harry bickering. Again. Weren't they just bickering earlier? Or perhaps it was yesterday, or even longer. Damn her head hurt. What the hell happened? She remembered the broom, and the flying and then the not wanting to fly and begging Kat to stop. Then falling. She fell and that was freaking high too. Is that why her leg hurt so damn much? Why wouldn't Madame Pomfrey have fixed it?
Alexa gave a slight shake of her head, trying to rid it of any thoughts, it already hurt enough. But she did slightly lift it to see Kat and Harry arguing. Did her sister really hate him or did she just want him in a bad way?
"Have you even told Draco yet?" Harry asked.
"No, she'll be fine."
"She's been in here for a few hours, don't you think he'll start looking for her soon."
"So? They spend too much time together anyway."
Harry sighed. "What about Spike and Buffy? Sirius? Anyone?"
"No, my sister will be fine. 'Sides, I don't see you telling anyone."
"I just happened to follow you in here while you were eating dinner, Dobby told me he couldn't find Alexa so I thought you would know. But quit changing the subject. How come you haven't told anyone yet?"
She shrugged. "What does it matter?"
"Lexi's hurt."
"Don't call her that." Kat snapped. "Only I can call her that."
"Kat, what's the big deal? Look a lot of people have been saying that you seem to have a problem with them."
Alexa shifted and she saw Kat's head tilt to the side as though she was listening for her.
"Why would they say that? I've been getting along with everyone. I'm sorry if I'm snappy, I'm just worried about Lexi."
Alexa's eyes clouded with confusion and she saw Harry's do the same. Her sister was just being super rude but now her tone was all sweet and innocent.
Sitting up more, she groaned in pain, causing the two to look over at her.
"Hey sis." Her sister said with a big smile.
"You suck." Alexa replied. "I'm broken, aren't I?"
Kat gave her a sheepish smile. "Just your leg."
"Just my- how far did I fall?"
"Not too far. You're not dead or anything."
"To which you should be thankful for cause I threatened to come back and haunt your ass and this time I wasn't going to be a friendly ghost. Why isn't Madam Pomfrey fixing it?"
"She told me that Buffy forbids it, something about Slayer healing taking over and not wanting to mess with that. She's afraid about last year when you kept getting knocked out the potions and stuff they gave you kept you out longer. Just a theory that apparently is true."
Alexa gave her a questioning look
"You've only been out a couple hours." Kat elaborated.
"What I wouldn't give to be knocked out for a few more." She groaned. "I feel like shit."
"What does shit feel like?" Kat asked with a teasing smile.
"Why don't you hand me my wand and I'll show you." She replied with a sickenly sweet smile.
The door opened and in poured Dawn, Draco, Hermione, and Ron.
Draco's eyes widened seeing his girlfriend on the bed.
"What the hell happened to you?"
The other 3 looked at the twins warily before noticing that the twin standing had her hair up.
"You still can't tell us apart?" Alexa asked avoiding Draco's question.
"I can't even tell my brothers apart half the time." Ron muttered.
"So?" Draco asked, waiting for an explanation.
"How did you know I was here?" Alexa asked.
Ron held up the Marauders map. "Everyone was disappearing we thought we'd find you all together."
"Well?" Draco prompted again.
"She had a little accident." Kat piped up.
Alexa glared at her. "She? Don't you mean we? Did I not tell you to let me off?"
"Let you off of what?" Hermione asked.
"The broom. Kat had a wonderful idea that she would teach herself how to fly and when I wouldn't get on my own broom, had me get on the back of hers. Not only that but she decided to fly like a maniac, thus making me dizzy and sick, thus making me unable to hold on. So I fell off the broom."
"How far up?" Hermione asked.
"Pretty far for it to break my leg."
"How come Pomfrey hasn't mended it?" Draco asked, stepping up beside her and grabbing her hand.
"Ask Buffy. No more healing crap for me, I gotta do it naturally."
"Are you okay?" Draco softly asked.
She nodded giving him a big grin. "Yup but I'm never flying again and you can thank Kat for that."
"Come on." Kat whined. "It was fun you gotta admit that."
Alexa raised an eyebrow in response.
"I'll take you out." Draco whispered. "I'll go low and when you want to stop we will."
She smiled up at him. "I'd like that."
"So you'll go with him but not me?" Kat exploded.
"Cause he didn't try and kill me." Alexa replied with a glare.
Kat rolled her eyes. "Jeez it's not like I did it on purpose." She muttered.
"That is enough." Madame Pomfrey snapped, running in. "all of you, out."
Alexa sat up and made to get off the bed but was pushed back down.
"Oh no not you, you're here until that leg heals." Madame Pomfrey told her.
"Aw man, can't I use crutches or something. No offense but I'm sick of this place."
"Well it's no wonder." The nurse huffed. "Considering how much time you've spent in here."
"Oh like I wanted that. Look, just gimme some crutches and I'll be on my way."
"Crutches?"
"Right, you can heal in an instant what would you need crutches for. Hermione?"
The bushy hair girl stepped forward and quickly transfigured some crutches for her. "These should hold."
"I don't need them that long." Alexa reminded her. "See? Now I can get around."
Madam Pomfrey glared at her. "Stubborn girl." She muttered, walking back to her office. "Why do I bother trying to help?"
"She doesn't like me very much, does she?" Alexa asked.
"It's because you're so stubborn." Draco replied. "You really shouldn't be walking."
"I could always apparate there." She replied with an impish grin.
"You can't apparate inside of Hogwarts." An exasperated Hermione replied. "It's not possible."
"Which explains why I did it huh?"
"That was a one off time I'm sure of it." Hermione replied.
"I want to learn to apparate." Kat replied. "When can I learn?"
"When we're not in Hogwarts." Alexa replied. "I have to get my license still, so unfair."
"But you're changing the subject." Draco replied, gently picking her up. "No walking for you." He handed her crutches to Kat who made a face.
"Hmmm well I could get used to this."
"Thought I heard you lot." Spike said coming around the corner. "Who's up for some train- What the hell happened to you?" He asked, seeing the crutches, Alexa in Draco's arm and her leg bandaged up.
"Long story." Alexa sighed.
"Fell off a broom, broke her leg." Harry answered.
"Never mind." She muttered. "But yeah what Harry said."
"How the bloody hell did you manage to do that, Firefly?" Spike asked.
"It just happened. I'll heal in a few days; all will be fine and dandy. Why doesn't Kat, Dawn and Draco train, I'll watch with the others."
Spike shrugged and led the way out to the training facility, where Alexa had to explain to everyone there, mainly Buffy and faith about what happened. Then Draco put her down and she settled down between Harry and Hermione. Her leg resting on Hermione's lap and her upper body leaning against Harry, who wrapped an arm around her waist to keep her steady.
"Watch it Potter." Draco playfully called as he sparred against Dawn.
Alexa stuck her tongue out at him before letting her gaze wander to that of her sisters, who looked to be honest, completely pissed off as she sparred against faith. Faith, actually seemed to be enjoying it, her grin wide as she taunted her sister.
"What's going on with you and Kat?" She leaned back and whispered only for Harry to hear.
Harry shrugged leaning down close to her ear. "I don't know I think she hates me."
"Or wants you."
Harry looked down at her in surprise. "Why would you say that?"
"It's the only logical reason there is for her to be so mean to you."
"So does that mean she wants Hermione, Ron, Dawn and Draco the same way? She's not just rude to me, Alexa; she's like that with everyone. I know you heard her today. As soon as she noticed you were awake, her whole demeanor changed."
Alexa frowned as she watched her sister get kicked by Faith and then jump back at her with a primal scream. "Why? Is everyone making her feel welcome? No one is excluding her are they?"
Harry shook his head. "We've done what we could to make her feel welcome. Dawn especially goes out of her way to talk to her all the time and she's not always enthusiastic."
"I don't get it." Alexa said, "To be honest-"
She stopped taking when Kat looked their way and she hoped her sister couldn't hear them.
"We'll talk later, Harry." She whispered, shifting to whisper closer to his ear. It was hard to tell how well The Slayer Hearing could work despite being one herself.
After the training. Everyone left together and Draco picked her up again, trailing behind everyone.
"What were you and Harry talking about?" He asked.
She shrugged. "Kat. Has she- Has she been rude to you at all?"
Draco sighed. "The truth?"
She nodded.
"Yes. She's been awful. I don't know what her problem is with me. It's like she can't understand the concept of you and I together."
"How come no one said anything until now?" She asked with a frown.
"We didn't want to upset you." He replied kissing the tip of her nose.
"Oh. I guess I can talk to her. I don't know why she would do that. Unless one of y'all really pissed her off."
"Or she's just jealous." Draco quietly replied.
"Jealous? My sister? About what? "
"Your life."
"No, she wouldn't be she has it just as good. Hey Roz." She called as they reached their rooms.
The portrait girl smiled at them. "Don't you two look all cozy?"
"I broke my leg."
"And he's carrying you? That's so sweet. Password?"
"Stupid Prophecies." They both said breaking out into giggles as the door swung open.
"What do you feel like doing?" Draco asked.
"Sleeping." She replied. "I'm tired."
He carried her to her bedroom and gently deposited her on the bed.
"Would you like help undressing?" He asked a devilish grin on his face.
"You'd like that wouldn't you?" she said, pulling him closer to kiss his lips.
"I could settle for this too." He replied, lying down beside her.
"Excuse me." A loud voice called. "Next time you plan on making out with my sister, you wanna close and lock the door?"
The two pulled apart and Alexa blushed avoiding her sister's gaze.
"Good timing." She muttered.
"I thought so." Kat replied a big fake smile on her face. "Anywho, I'm beat, I'm going to bed so you're gonna have to leave."
Draco stood up, placing one last kiss on Alexa's lips before leaving the room with only a nod at Kat.
"Kit Kat, you're being quite rude. What gives?"
"Don't know what you're talking about." Kat breezily replied using her wand to bring out both their PJ's. Now that she had full use of her wand she thought it was the neatest thing and would use it any chance she got. Who wouldn't, really? It was a pity her and Alexa had never been discovered before as witches she could've gotten used to this a long time ago.
"Do you hate my friends?"
Kat cringed at that. "Why would you think that SL?"
Alexa made a face. It was bad enough her sister called her Sexy Lexi but now she had shortened it to SL. Which did have its advantages. Like not embarrassing her in front of others, until she had to explain, that is.
"You seem…cold…and not so…nice with them. They think you hate them and they say you've been rude to them."
"You've been talking about me?" Kat asked in outrage. "What you all just sit there behind my back and talk to me. Is that what you were saying to Harry?"
Alexa was a little taken aback by her anger. "No Kit Kat, we haven't been talking about you, I've just noticed you don't seem to be getting a long with everyone so well. And you seemed kinda rude to them"
"What are you talking about?" Kat asked disbelief on her face. "Is that what they're telling you?"
She sat down on Alexa's bed, tears shining in her dark brown eyes. "Lexi, I've been trying really, really hard. I've been super nice to them all and I'm trying hard to get them all to like me but they don't. When you're not around, they ignore me, they don't talk to me and I'm usually stuck eating alone. When you're around they act nice to me and everything but when you're gone I feel so alone. And-and Draco…." She sighed and looked down, a tear falling down her cheek. "I didn't want to tell you this, I've been holding it back but when we first started going back to classes that first day, he-he called me a mudblood."
Alexa's eyes widened in horror. "No he wouldn't do that."
Kat nodded. "He did. I don't even know why, we were talking and I asked him how much he liked you and he told me to mind my own business and called me a mudblood."
"Oh Kat, I'm so sorry." She murmured pulling her sister into a hug.
"No, it's fine. Just don't-" Kat sighed and wiped away the tears. "Please don't mention anything to him I don't want to cause problems between you too."
"I won't." Alexa agreed. "Why don't we get some sleep, we'll talk more in the morning."
Kat nodded and climbed into her own bed. "Night Sexy Lexi."
"Night Kit Kat."
The two were soon fast asleep.
Alexa was dreaming. About what she was unsure. She was surrounded by darkness but she could hear voices whispering at her.
"Murderer…"
"You think she cares?"
"She came back wrong."
"Murderer…"
"She's not who you think she is."
"It's time to quit pretending."
"murderer…"
"They'll forget about you in the end."
"They'll betray you with each other."
"Murderer…"
A face appeared out of the darkness. A man with shoulder length brown hair. He was older then her but she couldn't pinpoint his age. HE seemed so old but looked so much younger. His kind blue eyes were filled with warmth as he looked at her.
"Lexi." He whispered.
Alexa's eyes shot open as she stared up at her ceiling. This was different, a lot different then her dreams had been lately. Usually she'd wake up crying because of her dreams but this time she just felt disjointed. Who was that man? Why were the voices whispering that? What did it all mean?
Sighing she got out of bed and using her crutches, went to the common room. As usual Sirius was out there, facing the fire. Wordlessly, she sat beside him, watching the fire as well.
"Bad dream?" He finally asked.
"no, not this time…I think."
He turned to look at her, waiting for her to continue.
"I didn't have that dream that I usually do." She explained. "This time it was just voices whispering at me and then this guy appeared."
"Who?"
"I don't know." She replied with a frown. "I felt like I should know him but I've never seen him before. But he knew me. He called me Lexi."
"what did the voices say?"
She shrugged. "something about betraying and coming back wrong. I don't really remember, but do you think I came back wrong?"
"Why would you say that?" Sirius asked. "Do you feel different, like something's not the same? I know you were struggling when we first came back."
She shook her head. "I was and still am a bit. It's hard; I don't feel as disjointed as I did then but these feeling of guilt…" She sighed and looked up at him. "I still haven't stepped foot into the great hall."
"I know, Harry told me."
"He sends Dobby for me, it's quite sweet actually." She replied with a small smile.
"He considers you his best friend, I think he would do anything for you."
"I'd do anything for him. God if I could take this whole Burden off of him, I so would. He doesn't deserve this crap."
"You don't deserve what you went through either."
"I don't?" She questioned. "Sometimes, I wonder if I perhaps did."
"Why would you think that Ally?"
She shrugged. "I dunno, it's stupid really. I've just never felt like I've been totally here. I feel like I'm only partially here, like another part of me is somewhere else, or should be somewhere else. Do you get that feeling?"
Sirius shook his head. "no, I'm just ecstatic that I'm back to tell you the truth. I've missed Harry growing up and I'm glad I get a third chance at it."
Alexa smiled up at him and threw her arms around him. "I'm glad, you got that chance and I'm glad you're a free man now." She pulled away smiling up at him "You should go live your life Sirius, why stay in this castle? You're free now."
"I'm not leaving you and Harry." He whispered. "You two are the most important things in my life."
Alexa teared up. Sirius was like a father to her. He treated her like a daughter and he was always there for her. If he hadn't of come back with her, she would have been lost and devastated.
"I love you Sirius." She whispered. Kissing his cheek and throwing her arms around him again.
"I love you too, Ally." He responded, holding her tight.
They didn't see the pair of eyes peering at them through the darkness, narrowing in anger at the display of affection.
pls tell me what you think
