Authors Note: Wow. I could not ask for better reviewers than all of you . I've honestly not been in the mood to write at all lately - especially toady - but you're reviews and story alerts and such kept me going. (:
Here goes another chaper . After this one I'll see if I can start one the next one.
Harry supported Amber all the way up to the Gryffindor tower. They were both silent the whole time until they reached one of the couches in the common room.
"Are you alright?" Harry asked as he helped her sit down.
"Fine, fine," Amber said, slightly lightheaded.
"You don't look fine, Amber," Harry replied looking down at the girl infront of him. She had turned pale which was different to the usual rosey tint to her cheeks.
"Yeah, well. I've been better. But it could've been worse, right?" Amber said as if shrugging the whole thing off her shoulders.
"It could've been worse?! Amber, you just got attacked by a teacher! And it was with an unforgivable curse!" Harry yelled furiously. His face became red with his anger. He continued saying incoherent sentences pacing around the table that was by the couch. Amber started cracking up which caused Harry to stop.
"What are you laughing at?!"
"Y-y-you!" She said as tears started to roll down her face. Harry began to laugh at the sight of her laughing and sat down next to her.
"So now I'm funny, am I?" He asked smiling.
"Yeah, pretty much," Amber teased, looking into his bright emerald eyes. Harry chuckled. Amber sighed and rest her head on Harry's shoulder.
"So, about that Hogsmeade trip, are we still going?" Harry asked looking down at the brunette American before him.
"I'm in," Amber said and looked up. She smiled at him and he returned the gesture. If there was ever a perfect moment, this was definatly it.
"Could I tell you something, Amber?" Harry asked gathering the courage to tell her how he really felt.
"Anytime," Amber replied.
"Well, this is probably going to sound massively corny. But well- erhm. I'm not sure how to say this. Well, you know how everyone's got something that they want to sing about, laugh about, cry about?" He asked nervously.
"Yeah..."
"Well, for me, it's you," Harry said looking into her eyes as he said it. Amber smiled at him and the rosey tint came back to her cheeks. Just when his lips were inches from hers, the common room door swung open and students began to flood the room. Amber and Harry jumped away from one another but keeping their fingers intertwined. Harry sighed.
"Could they have more perfect timing?"
Amber laughed.
