Saturday 19th October

I sat across from Emmett in the Common Room late that night. It was like 12 pm but I just couldn't sleep.

"So Bella, nice name you got there." Emmett said.

"Thanks, I think it's too much of a common name though, I wish it was rare." I said.

"It's not that common, I only know one other Bella next to you. She was the nicest but most clumsiest person you would ever meet, I loved her like a sister."

My heart broke for Emmett, I loved him like a big brother, and I wished he knew that, but I couldn't tell him, my feelings for Edward just aren't good for me, not whilst I'm dating Cedric and someone is threatening me because they know about Fred.

"She sounds nice." I muttered.

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah I'm great."

Alice then came over and sat down on the sofa next to me. I wonder where Edward is? I love him so much, it hurts so much to see him, but I'm adjusting, it is just painful.

"Bella are you sure we haven't met, I feel like I know you from somewhere." Alice said.

"We haven't met." I said.

"I feel like we have, but I would remember. I know a Bella but she wasn't a witch and looked or behaved nothing like you, she was the opposite."

"I was just telling her about Bella."

"She was the best, just like a sister. I miss her a lot. She was in love with Edward, I wish we could go back and see her, I bet she misses us too."

Fred then walked down the Common Room stairs and sat down in the last available chair.

"What you all talking about?" Fred asked.

"We're just telling Bella about someone we used to know before we came here." Emmett said.

"Oh right. Where did you live before you came here?"

"You probably wouldn't know it. It's in America, it's called Forks." Alice said.

"Forks, yeah Bella - ." Fred looked at me, pointing.

I made my eyes go wide as to say not to say anything, and I am hoping he got the jist because they would put the puzzle together if they knew I was there whilst Bella was.

"Has family up there." He finished, hesitating slightly.

"Oh yeah, who?"

"My Uncle." I lied.

"What's his name? We would probably know him, Forks is a small town." Alice said.

"Uncle Frank."

"Does he have the same last name as you?" Emmett asked.

"Yeah, Potter."

"Frank Potter... Never heard of him."

"He keeps himself to himself really."

"So have you been to Forks before then?" Alice asked.

"No, I don't really visit him that much, he comes down here sometimes but if I go and see him we meet in a place called Port Angeles."

"That's about an hour from Forks. How come you never come into Forks?"

"Small town, not much to do."

"So where do you sleep when you visit?"

"A hotel. He has a small 1 bedroom house so there isn't enough room for me to sleep."

"Does your brother go as well?"

"Yeah, Harry does, that's why we stay in a hotel, just not enough room you know."

"Yes I know."

"I'm off to see Jasper, haven't seen him in hours." Alice said.

"I'll come with you, I want to see Rosalie. Later Bella." Emmett said.

"Bye guys." I said.

It is becoming easy to be around them, I am really enjoying their company, and I think they like me too. I am getting closer to Emmett so hopefully mine and Fred's secret is safe.

"What was that all about?" Fred asked.

"What was what about?" I asked, being oblivious.

"When you said that you had an uncle Frank is Forks, and that you have never been there. You spent months there. Now that I know that they lived there, how come you didn't know them?"

"I just didn't know them."

"I know when you're lying, and I know you know them, when they got here you were sobbing and ran out of the Great Hall, I know there is something up."

Some tears came to my eyes because I seriously didn't want anyone knowing about us.

"Don't cry Bells, just tell me. Also with the screaming when you returned, something happened. I just want to protect you."

"I don't need you to protect me. I don't need anyone to protect me, there is nothing to protect, I'm already broken." I sobbed.

He came over to me and pulled me into a hug. My head rested in the crook of his neck as he comforted me. After a few minutes I stood up and lead him out of the Common Room. He knows a lot, I'm just going to tell him.

"Where are we going?" Fred asked.

"The Room of Requirements." I said.

"Why? We aren't practicing until tomorrow, it's a bit late."

"I'm telling you about my trip.

He then stayed quiet the whole way there until we got to the Room of Requirements. I led him inside and we sat down on the floor together.

"So, go ahead." Fred said.

"It all started on my first day of muggle school in Forks. The Cullen's were students and I had Biology with Edward, but he tried to get the class changed, they told him no and he disappeared for weeks. When he came back he said he had been with family in Alaska just visiting. A few days later I was by my car, just watching them, there was something different about them. All of them were over the other side of the car park. Then a van comes out of no where and heads straight for me. Out of instinct I crouched down by my car, just the first thing that came to me and put my hands over my head. My bag was in the car with my wand. Then in seconds Edward is right by me and he stops the van with his hand. There is a huge dent in the van. Everyone rushes over and then he leaves. When I went to the hospital that night Carlisle was the person checking me over. After that I see him and I just notice things. How he was freakishly fast, didn't eat anything at lunch, then he saved me from some drunk guys in town once and he said he could hear what they were thinking, then my hand accidentally touched his and it was so cold.

He admitted to me that night that he could read everyone's thoughts, but mine, and that is why he went away because he couldn't stand it. That was because of my Occlumency lessons with Professor Snape before I left. Anyway I found out he was a vampire but that he lives off of animal blood. We got together, I met his family, we were in love. Then on my birthday I cut my finger on some paper and Jasper was still kind off new and he went for me, I was pushed out of the way but that only causes for my arm to be cut open. He had to be restrained and dragged out. Then a few days after that Edward said he had to leave because people were beginning to notice that Carlisle wasn't aging, that's what he said, but I knew some of it was to do with Jasper. He told me he didn't want me anymore and that he was leaving and I would never see him again. He knew about me being a witch, but he was the only one I told. That is why I was screaming all the time, and that is why it is so hard for me to be around them all."

I was sobbing by the time I finished and he pulled me into a hug.

"So why are you really close to Emmett?" Fred asked.

"Because someone knows about our kiss and they said if I don't get close to him then they will tell Cedric about it. I don't want to hurt Cedric." I said.

"I wished you'd told me about everything sooner, I'm always here for you okay. You know that."

I smiled up at him and I was pretty much sat in his lap. I looked down at his lips slightly and couldn't resist the urge. I forgot about everything apart from that Fred was here, comforting me, and that is all I have wanted since I returned. The only thing that was keeping me going now was Fred, and my feelings for him are stronger than they were. Our lips met and I adjusted myself slightly and my legs were wrapped around his waist. We made out for a few minutes and then he laid me down onto my back, me pulling him most of the way as we grinded against each other. Man this feels good! And right. But then Cedric came back to my mind and I pushed Fred off me and stood up.

"I'm sorry. This was a mistake." I said.

I ran out of the Room of Requirements with a baffled looking Fred Weasley. What have I done?
