Last time

The one thing on my mind was…. 'I didn't want to disappoint dad by being placed in Slytherin.

We all walked into the great hall. I looked around. Everyone was sitting down looking at the front. I looked up at the ceiling. Hermione whispered, "It's bewitched to look like the night sky. I read about it." I tried to look interested but I really wasn't. The headmaster, Dumbledore, welcomed us to the school and explained that the 3rd floor is off limits and the forbidden forest is off limits to 1st years.

A lady in green said, "hello first years. My name is Minerva McGonagall. I am the head of Gryffindor house and I teach transfiguration. Now I will place the sorting hat on your head and it will tell you what house you're in. we went in alphabetical order. We got to the G's and Hermione went up. I gave her a promising look. She walked up and after a few minutes the hat shouted "Gryffindor"

Than we got to the P's Harry went up and everyone was silent. It turned out Harry and I weren't that different. He's famous because he survived the killing curse by an evil wizard. Living in New York I miss all the gossip. He walked up and after 5 minutes he was placed in Gryffindor. Than after a few more minutes it was my turn.

"MMMM, another Russo but you are nothing like your brother. You have a past that you want to never of experienced. You have a thirst to prove yourself. But where to put you, you are not like your brother so defiantly not Ravenclaw, Hulfflepuff is not you either. You seem to possess the skills of a Slytherin. You have evil blood in you. But you have turned away from evil through sadness. You seek revenge on the dark lord for taking your father. The place you belong is 'GRYFFINDOR'." I let out a long need breath. I walked over to harry a smiled at him. He held my hand as if to say 'I'm glad were in the same house'. A shiver went up my back and I could hear Harry not out loud but in my head.

"Alex is so cute. I wish we could get closer so I can ask her out." I hear in my head. It was so weird.

Harry's POV

Alex walked over to Hermione, Ron and me with a smile on her face. I hold her hand and I feel a shiver go up my back. 'I'm glad were in the same house.' I think.

I than hear in my head, "I really like Harry. I hope he asks me out soon."

"Pardon." I say looking at Alex.

"I didn't say anything. Did you say something?" Alex asks me.

"No, can we talk please?"

"Sure." Alex says getting up and walking to the hall way. "Ok so what's up?"

"Well when I touched your hand I could here what you were thinking. Like you were saying it to just me only not out loud." I start to explain.

"So than you no I like." she looks at me and I nod. "Well that makes it easy. I'm not so good at explain how I feel. Want to try it again?"

I look at her like she's crazy but than I say "why not? I'll think something than nod and grab my hand." she nods and I start to think something.

Alex's POV

I nod than wait for Harry to nod telling me to grab his hand. He nods and I grab his hand.

"Alex I really like you. Would you like to go out with me?" I smile happily as I hear that.

I than think "yes" Harry smiles and kisses my cheek. We than walk hand in hand back to the great hall smiling.

A few days later.

I'm standing in my dorm room that I share with Hermione looking in a mirror for the tenth time trying to look perfect. "So? What do you think?" I ask her wearing a short sleeveless purple spaghetti strap dress that falls just above my knee with small silver heels.

"You look amazing. Where are you going?" she asks sitting on her bed reading.

"I have no idea. Maybe I should put flats on instead." I kick off the heels and put on a pair of silver flats that make my outfit look causal but still nice. I than put some lip gloss and mascara on and tie my straightened hair into a pigtail. My hair is long so it goes down my back with my bangs out on either side. Hermione gives me a hug than I walk down stairs towards the common room where Harry is waiting in a pair of jeans with a dress shirt and dress shoes. He looks really cute and handsome.

"You look amazing" he says.

"Thanks" I smile and take his hand in mine. Surprisingly I don't here his thoughts. I hope he doesn't here mine. We head outside and he tells me we are headed to Hogsmeade. We take a trip there in third year. It's really like and outdoor mall. Once we have arrived my head into a restaurant for dinner.

We sit down and Harry gives me a menu "I'm really glad you said yes to going out with me." Harry smiles holding my hand.

"I'm glad you finally asked. I've liked you for a long time. Since we meet actually." I say.

Harry's POV

Alex and I have been at Hogsmeade for about and hour now. She's so nice and funny. I like her more by the second. We stop by a shop and go inside. It's a candy store. We walk in a pick some candy. As we walk towards the counter a man walks in. he has dark brown hair with dark brown eyes. He looks a lot like Alex. We pay for the candy and as we go to walk outside we bump into the man.

"Sorry sir." I say holding Alex's hand. She freezes at the sight of him.

"Alex." He says.
