HBP countdown: 115 days

They had all arrived back to the castle safely and had sat in the common room for hours until Amber and Harry were the only Gryffindors left in the common room. Amber was sitting next to him, resting her chin on her knees. Her eyes were red and her face was blotchy from crying all day. Harry had been silent for most of the day. Amber had guessed he was depressed from losing the closest thing he had to a father. Although, Amber had too. But the thing was, he had talked to Hermione, Ron, and even... Ginny, but wouldn't talk to Amber any time that she tried to talk to him. She decided to seize the moment to talk to him since he couldn't turn and start talking to Ron.

"Harry?"

"What." He snapped.

"Okay... nevermind then."

"Tell. Me. Amber." He returned her gaze. He looked frusturated with her although she had no idea what she had done.

"Harry... what did I do?" Harry exhaled, dropped her gaze, and then returned it.

"Amber, today, was so hard. He's killing the people close to me... to get to me..."

"Oh. Don't pull that shit on me, Harry James. Tell me the truth." Even though she had asked for the truth, she didn't want it. All the signs had been there. The past two weeks or so, Harry had tried to distance himself from her. He had a cold tone to his voice whenever he spoke to her. She just chose to ignore it, fearing the worse.

Harry exhaled again. "Amber, I don't know if... if... I love you like that anymore... I don't know how but, I lost the feeling."

"Oh."

"I want to be friends still, Amber, I really do." Amber didn't speak. "Besides, it's better. For you. You're not in danger anymore. I want you to do something for me. Okay?"

In her mind Amber said 'no' but her mouth said, "Okay."

"Don't go dating anyone with a threat to you," He smiled a bit. Amber didn't returning his smile.

"I'm sor-" But Amber was up and walking out the portrait hole before he could finish 'sorry'.

Her one destination was out of the school. Onto the grounds, anywhere. Amber was fast walking, on the verge of running. Every step she took, she wipped fresh new tears rolling down, off of her face. To busy in her rush to get outside, she didn't notice Draco running down the, what Amber thought was empty, hallway. Amber and Draco ran into each other, both falling to the ground.

"Ugh." Draco moaned.

"We've got to stop meeting this way." Amber sniffled and laughed. She pulled herself off the ground and held a hand out to Draco. "I'm sorry. I didn't notice that you were there. You hurt?"

Draco starred at her hand. Amber chuckled a bit. "I haven't got herpes. You can grab it, you know."

Draco grabbed her hand. "Yeah. I'm fine."

Amber smiled a bit. "Good."

"So, where's Potter? He won't be to glad to know that you're being so kind to me," said Draco unaware of what happened just moments before. Tears began to swell in Amber's eyes again as she ran off.

"Was it something I said?" Draco called out, but she was gone.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Running again felt good. It seemed like the only thing left in the world to Amber. She hadn't turned into her animagous form in years and it felt nice to stretch out her jaguar legs. She ran throughout the Forbidden Forest never once stopping. Because if she knew if she stopped, she wouldn't be able to leave it all behind her.

Ahh, my lovely friends. Tis over. But, the next story is soon to come. I'll let you know when it is. (:
