"It just happened one day I guess." I lied to him. My voice was shaking slightly and I was starting to get extremely nervous.

"Why them laylee?" Harry asked me calling me the nickname he used to call me when I was a little girl. I started to tear up and knew that I had to tell him. I couldn't hide it from him anymore I just couldn't. I took a deep breath, looked him in the eyes and told him everything. Halfway through the story he slumped down against the wall and had to look up at me so that he could look me in the eyes. By the end of the story I was in tears something most vampires are unable to do. I finished the story with tears falling down my checks and looked around the room, I couldn't look at him. It was silent for a minuet and I didn't even hear him get up. Before I knew it I was wrapped in a hug. I wrapped my arms around him loosely and hugged him back.

"why didn't you tell me?" he asked me as he pulled away from me and we both sat down on the ground.

"I was afraid. i didn't know how you would react to it and I didn't want you to hate me."

"Laylee, I can never hate you. I can be pissed at you but I will never hate you" he told me as he put his hand on my shoulder and looked at me. We haven't had one of these moments in a very long time and I missed it. I wiped my tears and started to stand up knowing it would end.

"We should get back to the compartment before they start to think that one of us killed each other." I said to him with a smile. As I helped him up with ease.

"wow your strong now." He said with a slight smile and laugh. "but you are completely right about that. They will think we will killed each other. We have never been very civil to each other while at school have we?" he asked me as he wrapped his arm around my shoulders and we walked out of the bathroom. We got weird looks from people as we walked out and down the hall but we ignored them.

"no we haven't. I don't think we have said a nice word to each other while at school if your little followers were with you."

"my followers? So that's what you call them now?" he asked with a laugh.

"of course. Everywhere you go they go. You can't go anywhere without them knowing about it." I said to him with a smile on my face. He just laughed in return. We were now right in front of the compartment. He looked at me and I looked at him. We both took a deep breath, mine un needed, and walked in. again, everyone instantly shut up and looked at us. Except for Hermione and Ron who looked at Harry and glared at me. I rolled my eyes and sat down next to Ginny and Nevil again and across from Harry who smiled at me.

"so, what did you guys do while we were gone?" I asked them.

"we sat in silence." Ginny said while glaring at Ron. My guess is they got into a fight about Dean again. According to Harry, Ginny and Ron were fighting all summer while he was there, which was only for a month of the summer.

"oh." Was all I could manage to say. I looked at Ron and saw him glaring at right back at ginny. Well this is awkward.

"so, when do we get to Hogwarts?" Harry asked trying to break the silence. i hoped it would work because this silence was just too much for me to handle. Hermione looked at her watch before looking at Harry.

"in an hour." Was all she said before looking back out the window.

"we should go get changed then. Us girls will go to the loo and you guys can stay here and change." Ginny said as she stood up and grabbed her stuff. I quickly followed her wondering if Hermione would follow. I glanced over and saw her hesitate before sighing and getting up to grab her stuff then following us out of the compartment and to the loo. The walk there was taken in an awkward silence. once we got into the loo I couldn't take it anymore and I just burst.

"OK WHAT THE BLOODY HELL IS YOUR PROBLEM HERMIONE!" I yelled at her right as the door shut. She snapped her head in my directing and glared at me. I glared right back.

"my problem is you! You're only popular in the school because Harry is your brother. You weren't even there during the attack! You were with Remus. You shouldn't get the fame and publicity that Harry does. And here you go prancing around like you are the greatest person on earth and like you are the chosen one. Well news flash Hayley YOUR NOT." She yelled at me. I sat there in shock for a second just taking it all in. for the first time in my life I did not know what to say back to Hermione Granger.
