It's Sapphire's 6th year at Hogwarts and still, nobody knows who she really is. ...Or do they?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Harry, an owl has arrived for you. It seems important!" screamed Ron from the hall. Harry poked his head out the door, grabbed it from him, and collapsed onto his bed, beginning to read it.
Dear Mr. Potter I, along with everyoneat the Ministry, think that it is time to tell you the truth of what happened. That night not only you survived, but your twin sister Sapphire did as well. At the moment, she is known as Sapphire Peters. But this being your 6th year here at Hogwarts, your stay is almost over.
She was hidden for your safety and hers. She has been informed about this letter. You can tell whomever you want, because it is not to be secret anymore. Please confront her about the information you have just be informed.
Dumbledore
"Ron, you have to read this..." he muttered, handing the letter over.
"This cant be true, you don't have a sister, you don't remember another kid or anything, do you?" he said, paling.
"I do, but I didn't think it meant anything.. I remember a little girl with long sliver hair like Fleur's, and grey eyes. But I thought she was just all a dream"
"B-but that's what Sapphire looks like. Dude... she is your sister isn't she"
"I have to go find her... I can't stand not knowing"
"Don't you think you should talk to Hermione about it first? She's like... best friends with her. She might know something... Don't you think Harry"
Both boys dash down the Great Hall, looking for Hermione. Finally finding her sitting next to Sapphire, they bent over, out of breath.
"Hi Harry," Sapphire mutterered, looking very scared.
"You just found out, didn't you Harry? Am I right"
asked Hermione, smiling knowingly.
"HERMIONE, YOU KNEW?" yelled the boys.
"I had to tell someone! I couldn't hide it forever"
cried Sapphire.
"George knows too, doesn't he?" asked Ron bitterly.
"He's my boyfriend! How could I not tell him? Harry, I thought you would notice sooner... We look so much alike. There's the different hair and eye color, but we have the same complexion and other stuff. And just everything. You don't remember anything at all, do you?" she sniffed.
"Sis, of course I remember some things. Not everything.
I mean, we were just little kids. Why couldn't I have known sooner?" he asked, pouting.
"It wasn't my choice"
Sapphire quickly looked up at the sound of someone calling her name. It was George, her boyfriend for the last 3 years.
"Baby, are you ok"
He scooped her up in his arms, holding her close and kissing her lightly on the forehead.
"Let me guess, they finally told you that she's your sister? Honesty, mate, I think you're horrendeously stupid. It took you this long to figure out that you had a sister? The only real difference between you guys is your hair and eyes. And, you know, the fact that she's a girl, and you're... well... not. She has wanted to tell you for ages, but the Headmaster wouldn't let her. He said he would tell when the time was right," he said, mimicing Dumbledore with shocking accuracy, making them all burst out into laughter.
Sapphire was now sobbing in George's arms, holding him tight. Suddenly, she went limp and zoned out.
"RON GO GET HELP!" George screamed, beginning to sob.
"Baby, hang in there"
They quickly carried her up to the hospital wing.
George explained to Harry and Ron that Sapphire suffered from the curse that was set on her and Harry, and because of it, she fainted quite often.
"Where am I"
"Honey, you fainted again," he whispered to her, kissing her,
"Sapphire, I love you. If ANYTHING would have happened, I would have died. I swear"
"You do this every time I faint, remember the time I fell of your broom? You thought it was your fault. It was kind of funny..." she said, giggling.
"Hey I was scared, okay"
"It was still funny"
"You know its Christmas Eve, right"
"No. I've kind of been knocked out for a few days, remember"
"Are you coming with me back to the Burrow"
"As always"
She looked up into his eyes for a second, blinking.
"I love you, George," she whispered hoarsly.
"I love you too, Sapphire."
That night they all took the train back to the Burrow.
Mrs. Weasly, as always, was more than happy to see them.
Sapphire quickly fell asleep in George's arms that night, having no clue what he had planned for the next day.
"Sapphire... Sapphire... SAPPHIRE! You better wake up, it's time for presents. If I have to wait on you like last year, I swear, I will beat the crap out of you!" shouted Ginny, shaking her violently.
"GINNY!" Mrs. Weasley yelled from downstairs.
"Sorry mom," Ginny said, rolling her eyes and focusing on Sapphire again.
"I'm up, I'm up, don't get your knickers in a bunch," groaned Sapphire, rubbing her eyes sleepily.
She quickly ran down the stairs avoiding Ginny, who was holding a bat. She ran and jumped onto George's lap, snuggling into his arms and wrapping her arms around his neck. After all the gifts were unwrapped and accounted for, George lifted Sapphire off his lap.
"What is it, honey"
"I've got something for you." He got down on one knee. Suddenly, Sapphire gasped and her eyes filled with tears.
"Will you marry me, love"
"Of course I will," she cried, flinging herself at him.
