Jade and Harry were in the common room sitting on the couch. Jade was resting her head on Harry's shoulder. The common room was still full but that didn't concern Harry and Jade. They had decided from the start not to keep it a secret because that would make it seem they were ashamed to be together. Slowly the common room began to empty and soon everything was quiet. They got up and left the common room. Standing in the empty corridor Harry pulled the invisibility cloak over them. They exited the castle and threw off the cloak. He grabbed her hand and led her down past Hagrid's hut and into the Forbidden Forest. Once they were in the forest Harry pulled Jade closer to him. He lowered his mouth to hers and they stood there snogging. Jade pulled away for a brief moment and pushed Harry to the ground. She laid down beside him and they continued to snog. Harry rolled over on top of Jade and that's how they were when Malfoy walked in the forest and saw them. He walked up and pulled Harry off of Jade. Jade sat up and glared at her brother. "What the hell do you think you are doing?" she asked.
"Keeping you from doing what it looked like you were doing. I am your brother and it is my job to protect you."
"Now you choose to be my brother. Perfect timing you little ferret and I remember you didn't mind when it was one of your friends I was snogging."
"That was different. Now come with me."
"No. How was it different?"
"It just was." He said as he reached to pull her away. As Draco pulled her Jade pulled back showing him that she was not going to leave willingly. It was a battle of wills and Harry wasn't sure which one was going to win. He wanted to step in but Jade had told him a long time ago that any fight she had with her brother he was not to get involved in. Harry watched silently as Malfoy applied pressure to Jade's wrist and how Jade put pressure on his wrist. He knew it was going against Jade but if he didn't do something they would be out here for hours. Stepping forward Harry kicked Malfoy and surprised he let go of Jade.
Jade looked at him in surprise. She never would have guessed that Harry would actually get involved. She quickly grabbed his hand and dragged him out of the Forbidden Forest with Malfoy close behind them. They were walking past Hagrid's hut when Malfoy spoke.
"You know Jade, it will pain mother to know what a harlot you are." He said with a smirk. Jade turned around to hit him but Harry was already in his face. Harry punched him in the nose and Jade heard a small crack and saw the blood flow from his nose. She could tell even in the dark his nose was broken. Silently she grabbed Harry to stop him from hitting her brother a second time and before they walked away she heard Harry say, "Your lucky your nose is the only thing broken ferret."
They hurried up to the common room forgetting they had the invisibility cloak. Once inside they went to their separate dormitories not speaking. "Damn you Draco why can't you just leave me be." Jade whispered to herself as she fell asleep.
The next morning Harry and Jade went with Professor Dumbledore to spend Christmas with Sirius. On Christmas day Sirius took them to the Burrow to eat with the Weasleys. Later that night she was with Harry outside when he turned to her. "Jade I have been thinking and I have to know this. Will you marry me?" Jade turned to him with a surprised look on her face and said very softly, "Yes."
