AN- Thanks alice22, Blue Luver5000, sara253xxx, and marauderlove for reviewing.

I have also been trying to explain more on why Sophie dislikes her family so much. More than I have told in the past chapters and let you see the emotions that she had felt. Why she was scarred so deep and still holds a grudge that is very strong. She used to be so close with her family until they begun to ignore her and not care for her. That and other stuff that I have yet to explain.

Sorry for not updating for a rather long time. Like I said earlier, Band Camp has started and all of you band geeks know what that is like. Eight hour long practices everyday for three weeks. Fun... Note the sarcasm. But today I am home sick because I'm throwing up. Not even doing any of my AP US History homework like I should.

Hope you enjoy this chapter and please leave a wonderful review for me to read and adore. -Laura

Chapter Thirty-One: Feelings

Then next day went rather fast, though that might have to do with me sleeping until half past ten. I wasn't awoken by anyone until Alecto Carrow came storming in after a fight with her idiot brother.

I cursed under my breath as I hurried to get dressed in a pair of jeans and a simple t-shirt. I has already missed breakfast and was already late for lunch. Thank Merlin classes didn't continue until tomorrow.

When I reached the Great Hall, it was half empty. So I just walked over to the Slytherin table and took a seat with the remaining sixth years. It was only Narcissa Black, Evan Roiser, Amycus Carrow, and Rabastan Lestrange.

"Where've you been?" Roiser asked me with a look of displeasure on his face.

I glared at him before replying, "Someone forgot to wake me up this morning."

Narcissa looked at me sheepishly as she replied, "You looked so tired yesterday, so I thought that I should let you sleep in. I mean, after everything that happened during the past few weeks let you all worn out..."

There was a bit of an awkward silence after she spoke if the events that has just recently happened to me.

"It's fine, Narcissa. Just remember to wake me up before Alecto chooses to stomp into the dorm after she has her daily fight with the tosser siting next to me," I said with a small smirk on my face.

Amycus looked outraged, "It's not my fault. Alecto feaks out on anyone near her and she just chooses to talk to me rather than any of you."

Lestrange laughed at the Carrow's statement, "I don't know about that, Amycus. Both of you seem to fight with each other more that Sophie and that wanker brother of hers."

I rolled my eyes even though what Rabastan said was probably true, "Now, I have to get going. See you all at dinner then?"

"Of course you will, Sophie." Narcissa exclaimed as I got up from the table and was halfway out of the Hall.

I chuckled to myself as the few voices left in the Great Hall faded away. That immediatly stopped when my mouth was covered and I was pulled into a empty class room. As soon as the door closed the hand on my mouth disappeared and the lights turned on.

"What the hell?" I shouted as I turned around and sighed when I saw who it was. My brother, James. "What do you want?"

"What, no shouting at me this time?" James smirked in amusment.

I rubbed my temples at the head ach that I felt coming on, "I can't spend my life yelling at you. I learned that the hard way, James. Now, what is it that you want?"

I watched my brother's smirk fall as he listened to what I was saying. "You know, Mum was really upset when you didn't come home. She wouldn't stop crying for the rest of the break."

"Well, she should of thought of that before she told me how much of a disgrace I was. What is it that you really wanted other than trying to make me feel guilty? If that is it, I'll be going now," I said with narrowed eyes.

My brother frowned at me, "You seem different. It seems like you changed when Dad died."

I sighed, "It my fault that Dad is dead, James. I got a slap from reality in the worst way possible. I don't want the same thing to happen to you."

"What are you talking about? It wasn't your fault that our dad died. It was the Death Eaters and Voldemort," James said in confusion.

"James, the world doesn't revolve around us. I realized that in Diagon Ally. It's time for you to grow up and face the real world. I did, now it's your turn," I said to him as I turn to leave. "I just hope you realize that before it is too late."

With those words I left. It was time to go see Regulus in the Room of Requirment.

James watch in wonder as his sister left. Does she really blame herself for Dad's death? Sophie didn't kill him though, a Death Eater did. Is he really as clueless as his sister said? No, he wasn't.

Then what in the world did Sophie mean? His sister said that he needed to grow up and that she did after watching Dad die. Maybe Sophie's right. After all, there is a war going on and he didn't want any more people he cared about to die, like his father.

One thing for sure was that it was time to take his sister advice and face the real world.

AN- So what do you think will happen next? Tell me in a review.
