Konichiwa, Hola, Hello. Umms. So I'm really sorry about the delay. I'm a really horriable person. I forget about projects and then start new ones. I hope you accept my apoligy, even though I don't deserve it with this crappy chapter. I worked hard on it, but I coudn't get it just right, So I decided to just upload it and move on.

Reminder: I started this story before the sixth book was realesed so you'll have to pertend you haven't read it. Because nothing that happened in that book has happened in my story.

This House is Crumbling

"Hey Harry, where've you been?" Ron asked from across the common room as Harry entered.

"I'm not speaking to." Harry said and turned to climb the dormitory stairs.

"Harry. Wait. Hey Harry, wait!" Ron yelled and tried to stop Harry by grabbing his robes.

"Let go of me you prat." Harry snarled.

"What did I do?... Fine Goodnight." Ron turned and walked back to the common room fuming with anger.

"What was that all about?" Hermione asked when Ron got back to the common room.

"I don't know, he's really mad at me and I don't know what I did. Maybe you should go talk to him."

"Not tonight, let him sleep then I'll talk to him tomorrow." Hermione said coolly.

"Good morning Sir Nicolas." Harry said as he entered the Great Hall very early in the morning. There was only three other students there and two teachers.

"Good Morning, Young Harry. What brings you to breakfast so early?"

"Nothing, I just didn't want to be in the dormitory when somebody woke up."

"Hmm, house troubles, they arrive every year. Well, I'm off, Good Day." Nicolas floated though the floor before Harry had a chance to say goodbye. So Harry sat down and started eating breakfast. After eating about two bites of breakfast, Harry left the Great Hall and headed to the Library. Where he hid in a corner reading a very large book.

"Umm, there you are Harry, may I have a word with you?" Hermione asked and sat in an adjacent armchair. "Harry, did you hear me. Can I talk with you? Are you ignoring me too. What did we do? Harry. I don't believe you. We tell you everything." This got the first sign that Harry even knew she was there. He looked up and glared at her. "Oh, so we didn't tell you something, is that what this is about. Well, we didn't think you'd understand."

"I DON'T UNDERSTAND NOW, but I would have, why you thought that I wouldn't understand I don't get? It's not fair." Harry blurted out and then diverted his eyes back to his book.

"I wanted to tell you, but Ron told me not to."

"Well you shouldn't have listened to him."

"Harry, don't be like that. Come on. Its okay…"

"Its not okay and its not going to be okay. I'm done talking now. Bye." Harry got up and left the library quickly.

"Harry. Harry." Hermione called after him. "Then picked up the book Harry was reading to return it. "Harry, why are you reading The Encyclopedia of Hogwarts Rules, Student Edition?"

"Hello, Oliver. Do you have a second?"

"I'll always have a second for you, Harry. Come in and sit, I'll make tea" Oliver ushered Harry in and went the electric tea pot. "So what's up."

"Umm. Ron and Mione are…. Kinda…. Well they've become a couple. I don't know how to deal with it. They're my best friends."

"Its not that bad. Harry. It happens all the time."

"I know, I knew they liked each other like that, but the problem is they've been together for a while and they didn't tell me. That's what hurts."

"Oh, I see. It will be okay. You have me now."

"It just feels like this house is crumbling around me. Nothing this year is going right, but you. And I hate it."

"I'll tell you a story. You know how I mentioned that player on my team who joined Voldermort, Shane. We were more than just teammates. We had a thing together. One evening we were watching the telly at my place and on the news there was a story of you running. I mentioned that I went to school with you and played Quidditch with you, and that I had a major crush on you. He asked me a stupid question. He said if I had to choose who would I rather be with? Well, I being the honest guy that I am, choose you. I didn't love Shane and he knew it. I wasn't sure if I loved you but I thought that I might. So he declared that he would do every thing you could to destroy me and you. I told him to stop overacting and that he was the one who asked. But he went berserk, and then left. The next day we found out that we wouldn't be playing so that the players could help against Voldermort. Shane pulled me aside and told me that he was going to help Voldermort; I didn't believe him at the time. Then I heard from Dumbledore asking me to come teach, but first I had to go the ministry to pass a test. When I was in the waiting room I heard a few ministry employees discussing the Puddlemere player who joined Voldermort publicly. I felt completely horrible, I drove him to that. It was a horrible time for me, nothing seemed to be going good, no more Quidditch and a close friend turning evil but, in the end it lead me closer to you. So its looking well from here on out it just took a little bit of time."

"Thanks Oliver, I'd better head to class." Harry stood and kissed Oliver and left his office and headed to class.
