Rora sighed and turned in her bed as she heard her roommates dress for the day. Their chattering was unwelcome, for Rora was supremely exhausted and could barely conjure the energy to sit up.

A familiar voice invaded her sphere.

"Hey, get up. Class is starting soon." Rora mumbled a response that even she couldn't make out. "Hey! American girl!" She pulled her blankets down and and jumped back when Rora's black kitten stood on her tummy and stretched. Rora groaned and turned, tipping Luna over next to her. "What's wrong… are you sick?"

"No… I'm so tired."

"Well, come on. Let's get ready." The red-haired girl grabbed an arm and pulled.

"I'm up, I'm up." Rora giggled.

"Good morning." She murmured as she kissed Draco. Draco watched her, surprised. And a little annoyed that everyone in the Common Room had suddenly dropped their conversations.

"Good morning." He held her by her waist and studied her. "Are you feeling alright." Rora nodded mid-yawn.

"Just feeling a little tired." She smirked and ran a finger down his torso. "I wonder why." Draco stared at her hard as her finger trailed just a little too low. Draco frowned. He grabbed their things and led her to one of the study rooms. The one they shared last night. Rora leaned in to his form, using him for balance. Draco held her waist tightly and buried his face in her hair. Breathing in the scent, he whispered,

"I missed you."

"I missed you, too." She looked up with a smile. She kissed his neck and sighed, resting in his body again. "What classes do I have today?"

"Same as yesterday." He looked worried now. "Are you sure you're alright? Perhaps we should take you to the nurse."

"No, I'm fine!" She exclaimed with enthusiasm. She leaned in a with sly smile and kissed him gently. Draco played the game for a few seconds, but the kiss quickly became passionate. Rora struggled to breathe but she defiantly battled for dominance against her boyfriend. Passion overrode common sense and Rora's fingers defly began to unbutton Draco's shirt…

"Not now." He whispered when he pulled away. He watched her worriedly, knowing something was off about her. Was she sick?

"Last night was amazing Draco." She paid special attention to his name, knowing what the sound of it did to him. His jaw taught, he calmly replied, "It was." His thumb traced her jaw and remembered the night before in a flash of images.

She kissed him one last time and grabbed her books, leading him out of the room. He grabbed his, and they both ignored the stares as they walked out of Slytherin.

Professor Snape crossed their paths suddenly, causing the couple to jump backwards. Snape's glare lingered on Rora for a moment.

"Good morning Miss King." She replied without a smile.

"Morning." She was too tired to try today.

"How are you faring at Hogwarts? Have you considered returning to America?" The loathing was obvious in this moment, which surprised Draco.

"No, why would I?"

"You look ill."

"You're the third person to say that today."

Draco glanced nervously between the two.

"What can we do for you Professor?" Snape's gaze studied Rora's face for another moment before addressing Draco.

"I'd like a word with you Draco. In regards to your father."

"What about him?"

Snape motioned to the library. Clearly this was meant to be private.

"Professor Appleby has been informed of your absence from class this morning. Rora, you may continue on. I trust you know the way?"

She nodded and smiled at Draco before heading off.

Rora rested her head on her arms and sighed. ~What the hell is wrong with me?~

"Hey, Aurora, you ok?"

"Yeah. I'm fine." She muttered.

"You sure? Because I saw you walk in and it took you a while to remember where you were supposed to sit." Rora smirked. That hadn't even registered in her mind.

"Man, I'm so out of it today…" She finally raised her head and met Harry's concerned smile. The forest green of his eyes shocked her like they did every time. She cleared her throat.

"I dunno what it is, I feel like I'm living in a Sailor Moon episode. The energy's being sucked out of me for the Negaverse." Harry sat next to her as they talked.

"I wouldn't know. I was more of a Power Rangers kid myself."

"I remember Sailor Moon." Hermione chirped in. "Sailor Mercury was my favourite Scout."

"That's not surprising, you're just like her." Rora thought over Hermione's role in class. She had all the answers and she helped everyone around her. "Yeah. You're definitely Amy."

"Long black hair… I'm guessing you're Sailor Mars?"

"No, everyone says that, but my favourite was Mercury, too." Rora raised her hand for a high five and Hermione awkwardly followed through. Rora smiled to herself. She'd make this friendship work.

"Everyone take your seats please!" Announced Prof. Appleby.

The pair hurried to their deks and sat down for today's lecture. Yawning quietly, she noticed that Harry had left his books on her desk. She glanced around at what she should do, Harry hadn't even noticed yet. Deciding that she wouldn't get in trouble, she grabbed Harry's books. She swung her legs over the her desk bench and felt woozy for a moment. Closing her eyes and taking a deep breath, she propelled herself towards the front and walked quietly to him. Prof. Appleby's eyes were on her and noticed she stumbled.

Harry heard her come up from behind and took the books gratefully, smiling. But Rora couldn't see the smile. Her vision became blurry.

"Aurora?" Asked Harry.

Rora grabbed a desk for support, but her legs buckled under her. Everything around her became dark.
