I don't own anything, well except Rain and Sarah and their friend and families. ENJOY!!
"Morning Rain!" Sarah said in a sing song voice. I must have looked funny because they all started to laugh. I looked at them like they were crazy, not that I had any room to say that. I can let lose some times and really be a wild one.
"What is so funny?" I ran my fingers thought my hair, even if I did brush it twice. Sarah looked like she wasn't able to control her giggles; she started to gasp for air. I smirked, that's what she gets for laughing at me.
"It is the owl on the punk look. It really does not work for ya."She finally chocked out before another fit of laughter. I looked for the owl, and she was on my left shoulder. I reached up with my right hand and rubbed her chest a little. I wrote my mom to find some things that where bothering me the other night.
"She must have come back," I patted her on the head; "Anyway I'm going to take her back." I was dressed in the school uniform. I ran down the steps to find the potions room after I dropped my owl off. I peeked my head into every door that I could find till I get to the dungeons. I should have marked my way down because I know I wouldn't be able to find my way back, I knew that I would be lost.
"This must be the potion's room; there are no more doors down here." I whispered to myself. I passed the Slytherin Common Room, the damn painting hissed at me. I really did not wish to speak to a Slytherin, from what I heard that they looked at the other houses like they were full of diseases.
"What are you doing down here?" whispered a silky yet husky voice behind me making me jump. I turned to see a neck/chin. 'Why do I have to be 5'8"? Why me?' I asked myself, I looked up to see a smirking Draco.
"I'm lost." I said just low enough that it was hard for him to hear.
"What? Rain, I could not hear you." I could hear the humor in his voice.
"I'm lost." I said a bit louder. He started to laugh; I hit his upper arm, hard too.
"What did you do that for?" he grabbed his arm. I don't always leave a bruise in his case I think I may have. I didn't think that a guy would whine about being hit by a girl, because they don't want to taken as wimps.
"You started to laugh at me." I growled.
"Sorry, follow me; you really need to learn your way around here." I rolled my eyes are he started to turn around. I didn't want him to get cocky with me, that is one thing that there was no way that I was going to put up with that.
"I'm still new. I have been here only what a day." a smile tugged at my lips. We walked to the dining hall, not talking to each other. He brought up something I did not plan on ever going too, Hogmaede.
"So are you going anywhere next weekend?" He turned to look at me. I looked down at the floor before I looked at him.
"No why?" He had hope in his eyes; I started to feel bad about the fact that I was going to turn him down.
"I just wanted to ask you if you would like to go to...to, I don't know how to say it." I cut him off.
"Are you asking me to Hogmaede with you? 'Cause I really was not going to go." he looked really disappointed. 'Since when did I start to feel bad about turning someone down? That's not me, I couldn't care less if I hurt a guys feelings most of the time.'
"Okay, I'll go ask someone from my house to go with me." he started to walk off; the hurt was defiantly in his voice.
"I'll go, 'cause I don't need to see you with one of them. Plus I don't like to see guys mope." 'I gave in! I can't believe I gave in! What was this guy doing to me?!'
"PERFECT!" he pulled me into a hug and started to spin me around.
"Draco, stop, I'm getting sick." he put me down and smiled a true smile.
"I don't get you." He said, still smiling. I looked at him; I couldn't believe that he said that. He just asked me to go to Hogmaede but now he was saying that.
"What is there not to get?" my voice got cold, I had to be harsh. 'If he says something stupid, I'm going to walk away now and not look back. I wouldn't care if I hurt him.'
"You're different from everyone. I know and so I can't get someone like you." He looked away from me, which for some reason hurt my feelings. 'No, Rain you can't fall for him. You can't and you won't.'
"Like me how?" I was getting worried that he was going to call me something that I'm not. The last time someone called me a name that was no where near what I was, I hit them. That's how I met Max and David; I ended up fighting them because they called me a bitch in our first year at Salem.
"Well, you dress in black and have one too many earrings." I glared at him. That was it, I was walking away. I pushed past him, I was walking away. He grabbed at my arm and he spinned me around to look at him. After he let go of me and I was calmed down, I spoke.
"What is wrong with that?" I was thinking that he is going after punks. I didn't want to stick around but I would to hear out what he had to say.
"Nothing! I kinda like it." he was getting better at telling me things that were true, that was a good thing but he needed to work on how told a girl that there was nothing wrong with her.
"What do you mean by kinda? You don't like girls like me or you do but yet you don't." I turned my head to one side. My mind was racing with thoughts like 'Is this boy real? Did you really think that he would like you? Wait a minute, who cares if he doesn't like me.'
"I like you. There is no girl, here, like you. That is the reason I like you." his gray eyes danced with happiness. My heart skipped a beat, 'Oh no! No no no no no! This isn't happening to me.'
"I have to get to my common room. I need to get my bag." I took off for the GCR. My mind was racing, what was happening to me, this isn't like me. I left him standing there, looking confused and shocked.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Draco's POV
I reached into my pocket and felt that I still had the necklace. 'Damn, I need to get this to her.' I took off after her. 'I've haven't know this girl long but I just felt differently around her. I never act that way around the girls from my house. I had already asked her out, and I had something to give her.'
"RAIN!" I saw her just as she walked into another corridor "RAIN!"
"What? Draco?" she seemed a bit annoyed.
"I need to talk to you." I didn't want to sound desperate. Her silver eyes danced with amusement.
"Why? We did talk, why do you need to talk more is beyond me." She smiled slightly.
"Cause, I like to talk to you." I was lying to her; I only hoped that she didn't notice.
"Okay, I have to get some books and my bag, but I'll be right out." Maybe she was on to me; I don't how far in it she was.
"No, I need to talk now." she was about to say their password, she sighed as she turned on her heels to look at me.
"Well, I need my things and I think that can wait. Draco, what is it that I can't get what I need and us walk to breakfast together." her silver eyes were trying to find the truth, her lips slightly pursed.
"How about I come into the common room with you and you get your things after I finish talking to you." I really did not want to come in but if I had too I would.
"Fine. Vanilla icing." I did not get that it was the password till the panting swung open. We stepped inside. It was nothing like the Slytherin Common Room, this was warm and welcoming, and mine was cold and uninviting.
"Wow!" I gasped. The reds and maroons worked with the golds and yellows. I was to lost in the way the room looked to notice that Rain left the room.
"I'll be right back." Rain called down from the girl's dorm. I just stood in the back grounds as her friend walked out.
"Yo man, waz up?" she said as she spotted me.
"Nothing. How long will it take Rain to be ready?" I wanted to get out of here. 'I shouldn't be nervous about being in another house's common room.'
"Don't know, dude chill no one will beat you up and it they try, Rain will beat the crap out of them." the reassurance did not help. If Potter or Weasley sees me down here I'm going to need help.
"Yeah." I probably didn't sound convincing.
"I'm back! Okay, what is it that you need to talk to me about?" Rain said pulling her hair up then braided it. Sarah pulled her around to finish doing something to her hair.
"I wanted to give you something but alone." that is all I need is her friend to see. Rain looked at Sarah, who smirked about something and then started to walk out of the common room.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Rain's POV
"Okay, Sarah, I'll see you at breakfast kay cool, peace!" I yelled as Sarah took off out of the common room, "What is this all about?" I turned my full attention to Draco.
"You don't know?" I was really lost. 'If I could read minds I wouldn't be asking you what its about.'
"Know what? Draco I'm not getting the picture." I didn't want to play games, he smiled.
"Good. Rain will you go out with me?" the question was asked to quick I thought he just
asked me out.
"What? It sounded like you asked me out." I just wanted to be sure that I heard him right.
"I did." he stated plainly, his smiled faltered.
"Of course. What ya think I'm crazy? Why would I not date you?" I knew why I didn't want to date him but I would.
"My father, would be a good reason." His father was a great reason for me not to date him about I wasn't about to let some old jerk get in the way.
"Oh please, I'm not afraid of him. He just looks mean." I was trying to be brave but I was also lying to him. 'Ok so I was terrified of his father, but still, who should care. My mom told me that the only one who could stop your happiness was you.' He pulled out a necklace, walked around me to put in one me. As he clasped it, I reached up and touched it with my finger tips.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~that evening
I kept feeling the necklace twisting it one way then another, every time I would get a smile.
"You really like that don't you?" Harry was looking at me from the other side of the common room. My eyes looked up from my potions book, Harry knew I was in a relationship with Draco, he didn't like it but he would get over it.
"Yeah.", we had potions homework, a two feet essay is a bit much, when you are only working on an ageing potion, "Does Snape always give us this much homework?"
"Most of the time." Harry walked over to me. I was having a hard time to get my mind clear. To tell the truth I had a problem learning and there was no way I was going to let that stop me.
"Rain, you've got a letter!" Sarah yelled form the girl's dorm rooms. I wrote my mom, so I had proof that it is true. I took off dropping the book that was on my lap. When I got up there Sarah was to the door, "Here ya go."
"Dearest Rain,
I am not your true mother, I am you aunt. My brother James Alexander Potter and Lily Rose Potter are you real parents and Harry is you twin brother. James when they found out that you all were marked for death, gave you to Jake and me to take care of. We were going to tell you on your 18th birthday. We hope you a wonderful year and also hope that you are not angry at us, River did not know till now also.
Your loving,
Mother/ Aunt.
P.S. there is a spell to make you look like you truly should." I read the letter out loud.
"If you a Potter what is your real name?" She had a point, did they call me Rain so I would be found out.
"Hang on there is more, its River's hand writing. Sis, Hey mom told me to write you. Rain is your real name, so you don't have to change it. Hope you like Harry, I never meet him but we have to meet up some time.
Love ya,
River."
"Wow." Sarah was in shock just like me. I felt like I couldn't breath, it was a lot to take in at one time.
"Can you do the spell? I don't want too." Sarah agreed cause she knows that I have to pay her back.
"You really didn't change that much. Your eyes are a different color, not you hair and you're paler."She was right my eyes were green just like Harry's but they were a little bit darker. I ran down more slide down the banister to see my brother.
"Harry, you're not the only Potter here now." Sarah called to him as she walked down behind me.
"Sarah, what do you mean?" I walked up behind him and covered his eyes.
"How many Potter can be in the same House?" I asked Harry, he spun around and looked at me strangely after I removed my hands.
"Rain, you look... Erm?" I smiled lightly.
"Like you?" I tried to make my voice light but I don't know how long it would last.
"Yeah, Why?" he was confused. All I really cared about is how will Draco take it.
"Yeah, well we have the same parents, you know twins." I said with a hint of laughter in my voice.
"What? How?" He looked even more confused.
"I'm you twin sister." I needed sometime to wake me up from this dream.
"Twins?!" Ron yelled from the boy's room. 'How could he hear us?'
"Yes, Ron. Harry and Rain are twins." Sarah smiled yelling up to him. Draco would kill if he saw me now, I was a Potter and he hated them. Well, how I will get out of this one, 'How well would he take it? I can only hope that he will maybe see past my last name. No need to fuss about it tonight, I'll just have to figure it out in the morning.'
Well the end of this chapter. Please review. I'm going to put links to pictures up on my profile, I'll let you know when I put them up.
