Torn but repairable 6
I heard a bunch of loud cracks and looked up seeing Hermione, Peaches and 'Ria looking at me worriedly. I looked up rolling my eyes before pushing my glasses up my nose and scribbling something on the parchment and sealing it putting it in my 'out' collection.
"Is it me or is this just wrong?" Hermione said as Peaches and Ria nodded. They both stormed up to me. Hermione and Peaches grabbing an arm each.
"You mind? I'm writing replies!" I said as Ria shared a confused look with the other two before Peaches looked at me shocked.
"You went to stay with Tai didn't you!" She shrieked as I winced at the volume.
"Jeez woman you'd think I committed murder," I said as she tightened her grip on my arm.
"Answer me!" She said as I looked at her worriedly nodding my head, as she relinquished my arm and looked at me like it was the biggest mistake of my life.
"Uh? Who's Tai?" Hermione asked as Ria and Peaches sighed.
"Taichikawa Franklin Summers, Blonde hair, blue eyes-" Peaches began as I rolled my eyes retching it from Hermione's loose grip.
"Great body, Personality, everything. He was Kimmy's ex boyfriend and-" Ria began
"Fiancé," Peaches finished looking at me as Hermione gasped shaking her head as she clasped a hand over her mouth.
"Kimmy who are you to judge Harry for being engaged! This is ridiculous!" Hermione said pointedly as I rolled my eyes 'I'll kill Draco later…'
"Look, Harry was still with her, I was engaged a long time ago," I said as Peaches rolled her eyes, Ria nodding.
"Oh please, you called off the marriage claiming to be in love with someone else…I wonder who that 'someone' else is?" Ria said as I glared standing up.
"Look, I'm tired of having a broken heart, I'm tired of all the lies, I'm tired of him coming into my life and tearing everything up inside me. My world turns upside down; my insides go outside, my heart jumps out my throat onto my sleeve. I need my stability people! Don't deny me my stability! I NEED MY STABILITY!" I shouted as the girls' looked at each other worriedly. I took my glasses off folding them as I placed them on the table taking a deep breath.
"I'll see you girls' at work tomorrow," I said looking up as they looked between each other worriedly.
"Kimmy we-" Hermione began before I held a hand up.
"I'll see you all at work tomorrow, by than, I hope you will have got this idea out of your head, I don't want to hear about it. Ever. Again." I said as they looked between each other worriedly before standing up and apparating away. I inhaled deeply before sitting down on the couch, holding my head in my hands as I felt confusion sweep over me.
"Kimmy, the girls' said that-Kimmy?" Draco's voice called, I felt the confusion overwhelm me and began hyperventilating. I tried taking steadying breaths as all sound drowned out from my ears. I felt a pair of hands shaking me as my eyes rolled back and I passed out.
I blinked my eyes tiredly as I heard a steady beating noise. I looked around the white room frowning as I heard silent whispering.
"I didn't know the curse still affected her," A male voice whispered. I rubbed my eyes and sat up. I pulled open the covers looking at my legs.
"The curse was lifted. This is like a shadow effect of it, I think that her whole body went into meltdown over something and she just got overwhelmed, she should be fine in a few days with a little rest, it must have been something though, shadow effects are rare," A doctor said outside as I glared flipping my legs out of the bed. I clicked my fingers as the machine switched off. I pulled out the needles sticking into my arms wincing slightly before clicking my fingers as the wounds healed instantly. I listened confusedly before clicking my fingers again as I appeared in some loose pyjamas. I slowly stood up before splatting on the floor. I groaned before slowly lifting myself up. I conjured a walking stick as I rubbed a hand over each of my legs as I felt my muscles jolt to life. I hoisted myself up and leaned heavily on the walking stick. I padded over to the door, peeking to my left seeing them talking to the doctor. I glanced to my right, before hobbling away 'Just a few more steps and than-'
"Kimmy!" I turned around glaring death before hobbling over in the direction of the exit sign before stumbling over and falling on the ground. I grumbled angrily as I was picked up. I looked up into Harry's worried face before looking at the ground again.
"I'm leaving as of now!" I muttered as the doctor came over to me.
"Kimmy, you have to be looked after this is a serious complication," The doctor said as I glared.
"I'm going to stay with my dad than," I said pushing Harry away from me as I leaned heavily on the walking stick.
"Why don't you come stay with m-" Harry began as I turned my head hearing someone yell my name.
"Honey your all right!" My dad said rushing up to me and pulling me into his arms as I felt my eyes water. I clung to him as Draco rushed up next to him holding Alex as Alex held him arms out at me. I picked him up weakly as he hugged me tightly.
"Hey baby, I missed you," I said as he snuggled his head into my shoulder as my dad held me up.
"You can stay at your house, I talked to our agencies, they said I could look after you as long as we get to do a few shoots, I spoke to the doctor a few hours ago, he said it'd be fine, just nothing too strenuous," Draco said as Alex kissed my nose.
"That's fine, I just want to go home." I said as I hugged Alex tightly.
"Kim-" Harry began before I heard yelling.
"LOOK! If you don't tell me where she is I am going to obliviate you into the mental health ward!" The sandy blonde haired man said pointing his wand venomously at a doctor who in turn pointed at me. Alex squealed excitedly squirming in my arms as I placed him down gently as he ran over to Tai. I smiled as he picked him up and ran up to me taking me from my fathers grasp.
"God, Mimi you didn't call me and next thing I know you're in Hospital, didn't I tell you to call me ASAP?" Tai said as I nodded my head sadly.
"Okay, I'd just like the…uh someone to sign this release form, get her belongings and I'll send her off with a few potions and we're all set," The doctor said holding out the clipboard out to anyone, Harry's hand went to grab it before Tai cleared his throat.
"I believe her father can sign that," Tai said as Harry glared before handing it to my dad. I felt Alex squirm between Tai and me as I put him down; he crawled over to Harry who picked him up tickling him. I smiled upon the scene before hearing a huge raucous coming our way. I looked past the doctor my eyes widening as I saw a huge crowd of paparazzi, I saw them coming quickly through the ward as Alex giggled on the floor in front of Harry. I pushed myself out of Tai's arms touching Harry and Alex apparating us before the crowd stampeded them. I fell on top of Harry with Alex by my side as he squealed excitedly and ran over to the playground nearby as the kids greeted him happily. I sighed trying to push myself off of Harry only to find my energy drained.
"Just stay still for a bit, you've overexerted yourself," Harry said sitting up cradling me in his arms as I closed my eyes leaning my head against his shoulder curling up on his lap tiredly as he arranged me in his lap.
"I'm glad your okay now," Harry whispered as I took in his scent closing my eyes.
"I can't believe you still wear it," I whispered as he looked down at me.
"Wear what?" He asked brushing some hair away from my face as I let his scent enfold me even tighter into his arms.
"You still wear my favourite cinnamon chocolate smell," I said my eyes drooping closed.
Harry's point of view"You still wear my favourite cinnamon chocolate smell," She said her voice drifting as her eyes slowly closed and she fell asleep. I smiled kissing her forehead.
"I missed you Kimmy, please don't leave me again or next time it'll be me in the hospital," I whispered chuckling to myself as I watched Alex playing with the kids in the park. I carefully opened my robes and enfolded her in them as she snuggled into my chest.
"I never loved her Kimmy, I was always waiting for the day you'd come back…the day you'd come back and we'd be together. Be happy, get married, have more kids, it'd be perfect," I whispered as she smiled in her sleep snuggling into my chest her arms circling around my waist.
"I'm really sorry, Kimmy it wasn't suppose to be like this," I muttered as I watched Alex playing in the playground before hearing an explosion of some sort as people screamed. I juggled Kimmy slinging one of her arms over my shoulder as I held her firmly around the waist in search of Alex.
"Alex! Alex!" I called as I searched through the playground everything around us in chaos.
"Dada! Mama!" He cried some where in the distance as Kimmy's eyes fluttered open.
"Alex…" She muttered as I reached into her pocket giving her, her wand as I dragged us over to him as he cried people running everywhere. I saw someone snatch him up and looked at the robed person in shock, their blue cloak swirling around them as they turned around before I gasped.
"Hi Harry, did you miss me?" Cho whispered as Kimmy groaned angrily.
"Oh look at that, poor little weak cousin of mine, not enough time to save her only son," Cho said as I reached into my pocket for my wand. But it was too late. She was gone. She was gone with Alex.
"F#K!" I yelled as Kimmy started crying. I pulled her to my chest as she began crying hysterically as I rubbed her back.
"We're going to my house, I'm going to contact the ministry and the right people," I said as Kimmy looked up at me with tear stained eyes pleading me. I wiped away her tears with my free hand.
"She's not there, I told her to leave after…the incident," I said as she leaned her head against my chest tears trickling from her soft brown eyes. I held her tightly before apparating to my apartment. I placed her gently down on the couch as I ran over to Hedwig. I grabbed some parchment scribbling a note and copying it on to several other parchments.
"Send this to Draco Malfoy, Mr Chang, Hermione, Ron, Mad eye and Lupin," I said as I handed her the scrolls holding open the window for her as she flew out the window. I watched her wings beating white against the now setting sky. I could hear Kimmy sniffling on the couch and walked into the kitchen grabbing a calming potion. I grabbed a spoon and walked back into the living room sitting by Kimmy as I popped open the cork, pouring some into a spoon and holding it out to her.
"It's a calming potion, don't worry," I said as her lips clenched tightly before she let out another dry sob. I held her chin lightly as more tears fell from her eyes, I placed the spoon in her mouth tipping the contents, before taking the spoon out and closing her mouth as her tears slowly stopped.
"That wasn't so bad now was it?" I said smiling weakly as I wiped the corners of her mouth; I turned around hearing a loud crack.
"Mad eye, I need you to give me several aurors, my son has been kidnapped, I need to go find him," I said as Kimmy's hand grasped mine tightly, I turned to look at her as she smiled weakly at me as more cracks filled the air.
"Lupin, I need you to go ask the order for some help," I said being careful to not say anything that might scare Kimmy.
"Kimmy? Are you okay?" Tai said running over to us and cradling her in his arms as I frowned turning away as I stood up pacing the room.
"Draco, I need you to come with me, Hermione and Ron, we need to find Cho," I said as they all nodded. I walked over to my map and pointed my wand out at it.
"Co-ordinates previously occupied by Miss Cho Chang," I said tapping my wand as red dots appeared on the map. I saw one glowing red and smirked.
"We've got her, she'd used some type of wizarding I.D in the past 30 minutes," I said as they nodded.
"Mad eye, assemble the aurors around the perimeter, I'm taking this one down myself," I said fingering my wand angrily.
"Okay, here's the plan, we'll sneak into the room," I tapped the map as it became a blue print to the place she staying.
"Hermione you will be at the top most window, go down from the attic and meet us in the hallway," I said marking out her task with a purple light.
"Ron, you will come up the stairs with me, we'll separate in the living room, so I can open the window for Draco," I said as Draco nodded his head.
"She'll probably use the basement, since she's most likely amateur at this," I said thinking about it before shaking my head.
"Actually no, Okay, I'm going to send in one my stealth partners before we head in, she may have a partner in this," I said as a few more people apparated into the room.
"Lupin, I need you to go in, takes my dad's cloak, check out any obstacles and report in ten," I said as he nodded taking a walkie-talkie before apparating away. I checked my watch before seeing a green dot appear on the map. I watched as it flashed white before resuming the colour.
"Buzz I'm in, is anyone upstairs?buzz" Lupin's voice called. I held up my walkie-talkie to my lips.
"Coast is clear, take the corridor to your left, and first on the right is the stairs, go up them, do a visibility charm on the door, than report back to me," I said as his dot moved down the corridor and up the stairs. I watched as a purple dot began moving to the door.
"Abort! Abort! She's at the door! LUPIN!" I yelled as I watched his green dot fly back hitting a wall.
"Aurors! Go! Go! Go!" I yelled as all of their dots appeared on the map. I saw a new yellow dot, beside the purple one, my eyes widening as I closed my eyes apparating there. I landed onto the steps racing up them in time to see Cho grasping onto a wriggling Alex.
"Come for me honey?" Cho cooed as I glared lifting my wand at her, before she held Alex up in front of her.
"You'll have to get through him to me," She said as Alex cried trying to pry himself from his grasp. I heard another crack and turned around seeing Kimmy before feeling my body petrified. I looked up seeing Cho smiling down on me.
"I really didn't want to take you by force honey," Cho said as I looked at her with utmost hate.
"You're not taking him, not before, not now!" Kimmy yelled leaning on her two hands.
Kimmy's point of view"You're not taking him, not before not now!" I yelled leaning tiredly on my two hands.
"Who are you to say anything, your not with him anymore," Cho snapped back as I looked up glaring.
"Just because I'm not with him, doesn't mean I don't love him," I retorted glaring with malice.
"So, shall we duel?" She asked almost tauntingly as I bit my lip watching Alex squirm in her grasp to Harry whom lay stiff on the floor watching in anticipation. I lifted my wand before conjuring a contract.
"Sign it!" I snapped angrily, swishing my wand as Cho blinked her eyes stupidly before seeing Harry's hand fly across the parchment scribbling his signature. I smiled to myself snapping the contract from thin air and clicking my fingers as the contract was gone.
"What did you do?" She asked, her voice trembling lightly her grasp tightening around Alex, I smirked to myself as I saw the first sign flicker behind her. I closed my eyes tiredly breathing heavily.
"This!" I clicked my fingers watching as silver ropes cracked through the room disconnecting her arms from Alex as he fell to the floor scrambling away with tears in his eyes watching almost fearfully. I watched as the ropes tangled tightly around her, tying every moving part of her into the ropes as she squirmed uncomfortably her wand falling away uselessly, closing my eyes as people rushed forward and took her away. I could hear Alex scuttling through the people into my arms as I draped my arms around him kissing him lightly on the head checking if he had any injuries from when Cho dropped him.
"Do you really love me?" Harry asked, his voice almost like a whisper. I looked up into his eyes my vision blurry as they blinked ever slowly, before closing lightly. I breathed in deeply before my eyes shot open as I felt lips crash on mine. I tried to pull back finding that he was holding me in place, our lips tangled in a passionate yet tear filled embrace.
"I always knew you still cared," He muttered leaning back as Alex clung to us more tightly crying into my shoulder as I looked at Harry with shocked eyes.
"I-I-I-" I began before Harry's finger pressed gently upon my lips.
"It's ok, I understand, I understand completely," Harry whispered, my eyes watching as Cho was dragged kicking and screaming away from the room. I closed my eyes sighing as Harry apparated us to his apartment.
"Alex!" I opened my eyes just in time to see Draco pry Alex and me away from Harry. I felt confused tears spring to my eyes.
"Please take me home," I choked as Draco wrapped his arms around my waist with a quick breathless ness, we had landed softly onto my bed as I felt Alex being taken safely out of my arms while I grabbed the nearest pillow crying into it confusedly, before finally crying myself to sleep.
"Potter, I don't care how much you love her. But if you truly loved her, you wouldn't marry someone else!" I scrunched my eyes before rolling over. I felt a small hand poke at my face.
"Look, I never loved Charlotte!" Harry yelled. I opened my eyes pulling on my silk robe noticing I was in a nightie. I picked Alex up, walking quietly into the bathroom, running a bath for us both.
I pulled my and Alex's clothes off and climbed in, placing Alex between my legs as I washed my hair delicately before washing Alex's as he giggled playing with his toys.
"You've got to let me see her Draco! I love her!" Harry yelled, my eyebrows knitting together.
"Your not the only one who loves her around here, Potter!" Draco yelled back. Silence.
"You don't love her like I do Malfoy, I spent my life looking for her, I'm not losing my son again, I'm not losing her again," Harry whispered. I felt my heart quicken as Alex threw a toy at the wall causing it to clatter loudly on the marble floor. I closed my eyes tightly before turning back to Alex rubbing his back softly with a sponge as he giggled playfully. 'Little runt, he planned that'
"Are you ok?" I looked up seeing Harry standing there. I looked down more stubbornly and began washing Alex's hair.
"I'm ok," I said looking determinedly at Alex's small head of brown hair.
"Are you sure?" He said stepping closer as I felt my heart quicken, his feet moving towards the tub.
"I'm fine," I choked as he knelt down beside the tub as I picked up the scoop rinsing Alex's hair as he giggled happily.
"Please don't be afraid of me," He whispered lifting my chin up as I averted my gaze.
"I'm not afraid of you, I'm afraid of what you'll do to me," I answered back just as quietly.
"Wait? What's that supposed to mean?" He replied back shocked. I looked up at him with glazed over eyes, as his mouth gaped in surprise.
"I don't want to lose you Harry, I don't want you to leave me again, I don't want you lie to me again, I don't want to hurt anymore," I whispered, grabbing the towel past his shoulders while standing Alex up and handing him to Harry as I picked up another one turning around as I pulled it around me.
"Wait!" Harry called as I began to make my way past him.
"How is that I leave you, when you 'left me? How do you know, I'm not hurting? How do you think I feel!" Harry asked holding my forearm. I heard Alex gasp in surprise as I looked at Harry sadly.
"I left you so you could start a new life without me, you didn't need a crying baby hanging over your head at 17, and a bitchy girlfriend," I added walking into my room, rummaging through my closet.
"Wait! Why are you doing this Kimmy? Don't you want this? Don't you love me anymore? What am I to you! AM I SOME KIND OF TOY!" Harry shouted as I heard Alex start crying. I pulled on my underwear just in time to see Harry walk in, void of Alex.
"He's with Draco," Harry snapped, seeing my eyes widen. I looked up into his eyes, my folded sweats falling to the floor from my loose hands as if time had come to a stand still. Watching us both, waiting for someone to make the first move.
"No, your not some kind of toy," I whispered as he blinked stupidly before taking a tentative step towards me.
"Than what am I?" He asked taking another few steps.
"Your you," I answered weakly entranced by his emerald eyes.
"And that's suppose to mean what?" He quipped my eyes never leaving his as he stood now in front of me. I gulped nervously.
"It means that-that, well I-I-I-" my body leaning into Harry as his hand brushed gently against my cheek.
"You still look just as beautiful as when you left me…I remember waking up and watching you sleep, you looked so peaceful," Harry whispered as I closed my eyes savouring his gentle touch, his fingers now running gently across my lips leaving a soft tingle to play along them.
"You still feel just as gentle as I remember," I breathed, I opened my eyes tiredly as his hand cupped my face bringing his closer ours eyes closing-
"Kim-" The door slammed open just as Harry's lips landed on mine "-my…" I tore my lips away from Harry to see Tai standing there.
"Oh," was all he said. I looked at Harry who was looking…well…more like glaring at Tai. I picked up my clothes swiftly.
"I'm hungry," I said breaking the awkward silence as I rushed out past both and rushing downstairs pulling my clothes on as I walked down the hallway. I walked into the kitchen pulling a bowl out of the cupboard and picking up the cereal pouring myself some.
"I suppose Tai came up to greet you," Draco smirked. I glared at him pouring some milk into my cereal. I picked up a spoon filling my mouth as Draco chuckled at me feeding Alex.
"You know, you are going to have to choose…" I sighed shaking my head.
"I really don't want to choose, decisions suck, like big time, and there is no choice to make," I answered unhappily twirling my spoon through the cereal.
"Well think fast," He laughed as my body stiffened. I heard heavy and quick footsteps. I flipped open my cellphone calling Peaches.
"Oh, I have work today…oh-oh k, I'll head in now, ok love you too, bye," I said hanging up while turning around and seeing the two.
"Sorry guys, got work, huh?" I flipped open my phone open confusedly.
"Doctor Harold? Potions? Oh my goodness! I-I" I clutched at the nearest chair-feeling faint.
"I'll send someone in to get it for me right away, ok thank you bye," I quipped, wiping my forehead as Harry helped me into a seat.
"I'll send in my assist-" Harry began before the doorbell rang and the familiar bushy haired girl appeared.
"I believe a certain someone forgot some medication?" Hermione answered holding up the 3 kinds of potion.
"I believe I love you Hermione," I smiled as she giggled walking in as Ron appeared behind her waving lightly at me. I nodded acknowledgement as Hermione handed me the bottles. I pulled the cork out and took a swig, doing so in turn with the others.
"Nice charm bracelet by the way," Hermione said pointing at it. I looked at it smiling.
"Yeah, its just a few of my favourite and adored things transfigured so its tinier," I said taking it off and handing it to her as she looked at each charm her eyes seemingly widening before she looked at it more normally…or as normally as a witch could with her wand in hand.
"Well, what have you got planned today?" She asked looking around at everyone.
"I'm here to look after Kimmy," Harry and Tai said at the same time. I slapped my hand over my eyes as Draco's chuckling filled my ears.
"I have work, feel free to stay here and do whatever, but I got work," I said walking over to my purse from last night and going to the cupboard by the door looking for one that matched my outfit. I quickly found it sticking my things from my other purse into it.
"Ok, I'm going to head over to Peaches, to do some…work?" I slung my bag over my shoulder nodding at Draco and shyly nodded to Harry and Tai.
"Bye Alex, remember to remind Uncle Draco to take you to school today," I called as he gurgled happily at me. I pulled open the door and closed it behind myself.
"God, that was so tense," I muttered before apparating to my office. I landed on my chair spinning around smiling to myself, picking up the ringing phone.
"Your going to have to choose between us," I frowned.
"Choose between who? Wait, who am I talking to!" I snapped standing up slamming my hand on the table. I heard two loud cracks looking up surprised as I saw Harry and Tai looking at me.
"You know you have to make a clear statement of who you are with darling…cause not only do we want to know, but the press do too, sweetie," Tai said looking at me, my jaw hanging loosely.
"Ch-Choose?" I said lamely as Harry nodded lying down in the recliner.
"Yup, we want to know, you're a psychologists so you should know the answer, you know it's all inside your head and stuff?" Harry said, as I plopped down in the chair with a lite thump as I turned around mouthing the words 'F$K!'
"I guess I do have to do this than…" I muttered more so to myself as the guys grunted in response. I looked up at the photo I kept of Harry and me from at Hogwarts, sitting by the lake. I glanced at the one beside it of Tai and me smiling at the camera. I sighed turning around slowly.
"If I choose, you both have to promise to still be friends with me," I said looking up with glazed eyes.
"I know it sounds stupid of me, but is there any point in this? Considering I walked in on both of you making out?" Tai bluntly stated as my cheeks turned a light shade of pink, Harry chuckling at me.
'I can't just say goodbye forever to one of them…I cant say bye to Harry because he has right to see Alex…but I can't say goodbye to Tai cause that's not fair on him…this doesn't even seem fair on me?'
