Chapter Two:

A New Year at School and Remembering

The summer before their 6th year was almost over. Harry wasn't looking forward to facing his peers again especially now they all knew and believed in Voldemort's return. Course they still believed Sirius Black was a murderer which fuelled Harry's growing withdrawal from most of the magical world except for his friends and the Order. It had only been about two months since Sirius fell into the veil and Harry lost yet another link to his parents, only Remus Lupin was left.

Throughout the whole summer Harry was plagued with horrible dreams of his godfather falling, him unable to do anything to stop it. And another...one that if possible tore at his soul even more than
anything ever had in his 16 years of life.

Dream

He was walking across he Hogwarts grounds in the dark of night. There was no sound, like everything was on mute. When he finally reached the banks of the Lake he could see the sun rise casting beautiful shades of red and orange acoss the grounds.

"It really is beautiful,isn't it." a voice called out from Harry's side breaking the peaceful silence that he had become used too.

"It is. Who are you?" Harry asked as he took in the beauty of the girl beside him. Her petit stature, long blond hair, gorgeous features, and somewhat familiar green eyes.

"That's not important is it." she told him with with a smile that pulled at his heartstrings.

"What are you doing here?" Harry asked trying to get any answer from her.

This just caused her to lightly laugh a familiar laugh that he just couldn't place before saying, "Now your just asking questions to hear yourself talk. Why don't you ask what you're doing here..."

"What am I doing here then?" he complied to her suggestion.

"You're here to be warned." the girl said, "she will come here soon. Don't leave her alone again, she needs you. Even if she pushes you away don't let her go, she needs you just as much as you need her. Remember that..." with that done and said she faded away leaving him alone once again in the silent school grounds.

He would stay there for a while thinking about what th beautiful girl had said and trying to pin point who she reminded him of but to no avail.

End of Dream

Now was one of those many moments throughout the day that he would remember the dream. It had started right after he left the Dursley's to number 12 Grimmauld Place about three weeks into the summer holidays. No one knew about his dreams of this blond haired beauty. They wouldn't understand what her warning made him remember. His best friend except for Hermione and Ron. The one who was always there through the years spent at Privet Drive. The only person who he needed now that Voldemort was back and Sirius was dead. The only person who knew who he was before Hogwarts before he learned of the Prophecy.

"Harry," Ron said bresking his inner thoughts as he and Hermione entered the study at Grimmauld Place.

"Hello Ron, Hermione." Harry greated them trying to ignore the concern written on their faces.

"Harry, what are you thinking about?" Hermione asked in the inquiring way she used all the time when she wanted to know something.

"Nothing."

"Are you thinking about Sirius, Harry?" asked Ron trying to find out was wrong with his best friend.

"No" Harry said bluntly knowing that he would have to tell them now.

"Then what are you thinking about?" Hermione completely blurted out in her confussion.

"A dream I've been having."

"About what?" Ron asked his interest peaked.

"Someone's warning me, a beautiful girl. She's telling me not to let someone go. That I'm needed and that I need her, whoever it is." Harry said running his hands through his naturally messy black hair and his now glasses missing face now that he got contacts.

To say this caught Ron and Hermione's attention would be an understatement. They had never seen Harry like this. He acted as if he knew who it was who needed him. So they did the only thing they could...they asked him, "Do you know who it's talking about?"

"Yes...No...I don't know." Harry answered running his hands through his messy hair again. This time unsure about the reactions of his two best friends. They didn't know about her, he wasn't even sure he wanted them to know about her not yet at least. She was the only persom that he loved from his old life before he found out about magic. The one person he would love above all others, the little girl who had stolen his heart when he was 5 years old.

"Harry, who do YOU think it is?" Hermione asked wanting to know what he was keeping from them, she thought they knew everything about each other.

"My Buffy." he answered not bothering to look at them but staring off into space as if he were remembering something he never wanted to let go.

"Whose Buffy?" Hermione asked trying to think if she'd ever heard that name before, but couldn't.

"Buffy Ann Summers was my best friend growing up on Privet Drive. She moved there when I was 5 years old and we were practically inseparable ever since until she moved back to America when I was 10. She was actually a year younger than me. Buffy was always full of life, happy, everything someone should be, everyone adored her especially me." Harry said with the first real smile planted on his face in a long time.

"Was she a witch?" Ron asked.

"I don't know...her parents were muggles but... maybe..." Harry asked a thoughtful look on his face.

"You were love with her." Hermione said in a whisper, affraid that she was totally off base.

"Yes, I was and still am." Harry said looking away out the window.

It was completely quiet in the room following this admission from Harry. They just sat there in silence not sure about what to say next. Luckily they didn't have to say anything when Mrs.Weasley broke through the silence when she came into the room and said, "Dear's come on, come on. We have to flo to Diagon Alley today to pick up your things. 6th year starts next week it's a big year you don't want to be unprepared." With that they left for Diagon Alley.

A/N :

I need some advise on the pairings. I have most of them like Buffy/Harry (as many have guessed), Hermione/Ron (duh),and Xander/Ginny. But I'm not sure about Willow and Draco.

Should it be Willow/Draco

Or

Should I bring in Oz and Faith for a Willow/Oz and Faith/Draco pairing.

(In my opinion Faith would be a nice addition to the Scooby gang cause her and Buffy were a wild pair always getting into trouble, but if shes in the fic she WON'T be a slayer just a regular witch.

And Oz was always so cute with Willow and who doesn't love his lack of words.)
