Chapter 10: Just For Her

The next morning Deyanira had gone down to breakfast alone and she was looking at nothing really. She was just lost in her mind with her head resting on her hand. Fred and George entered the great hall, sharing a laugh with Jordan until George stopped, spotting Deyanira, alone, and tempted to go to her.

"Go on", Fred said as he kept walking with Jordan and George slowly stopped

Normally he would have continue walking while he argued with Fred and maybe then he would have turned, but knowing her secret, now he wanted her closer.

"Morning", he said with a friendly tone, making her jump, "wow, scared you?", he asked as he sat beside her

"Um, yeah", she chuckled, "I was kinda lost in my thoughts"

"Ah, do you wanna be alone? I can-I can go"

"No, it's alright", she said and smiled to him before continue eating, George smiled back and served some breakfast for him

"So, are you alright?"

"Yes, you?"

"Yeah, yeah", he said, but kind of regretted when he looked at her, "actually…I'm…I'm going trough something…"

"What's wrong?", she asked, worried, and taking her attention off her food

When her eyes caught his, he felt the shivers and his body suddenly stopping after; a mixture of ecstasy. He wanted to speak, but his lips trembled and his breath was escaping trough his mouth. She let out a comforting smile so he would go on.

"Um…I just…nothing, forget it.", he said looking back at his food

He kept eating, feeling his arms shaking everything he got it on the air to get food in his mouth. His heart gave a sudden pound when her hand slid over his, making him look to the movement.

"If you need to talk to me, you can, whenever.", she said, softer than how she usually speaks, "I'm here for you"

His eyes then trace all the way up her arm until he stopped at her eyes. Making him tremble again, but smile at the same time.

"Hey, interrupting something, are we?", Ron said as Harry laughed while they sat in front of them.

George felt his body turned cold when Deyanira's hand left his. Making him want to grab it again and hold it forever. Ron and Harry started to make jokes on how they found them, both of them just laughed and played along. That night Deyanira had gone to the library to do some homework and got caught up with it. She wanted to do some that was due next week to enjoy this upcoming weekend. With out realizing, the library was closing and she was left alone with the stack of books she had taken out. One by one she started to place them where they belonged and when she had about 3 left, she felt someone getting closer.

"Excuse me", said the Ravenclaw boy with dark short hair and dark brown eyes, "it's time for you to be in your common room and not wondering around", soon she noticed the shiny, golden prefect badge.

"I'm just finishing up, calm down", she said placing one of the books on a shelf

The guy just sighed and crossed his arms. After that she kept walking to finish placing the last two books she had in hand. When she putted up the last one, she turned around to leave and bumped with the same head boy.

"Maybe I can cut you some slack", he said with a grin as he got closer

"L-Leave me alone!", she said back, but he covered her mouth

"Don't speak"

He pinned her to the shelf behind her as he started to kiss her neck with mouth covered. She started to push him off until she felt some kind of ropes going around her wrist and lifting her arms up over her head. Her legs were forced to spread by his and pushed to the shelf too. Her mouth was still covered by his hand as his other wand travelled all over her blouse and even started to make it's way under it. She felt her heart pounding and her throat aching. She felt her temper rising up and this time she wouldn't think it twice to scream just to get him off her. She felt her tie got loose and his hand went under her blouse again and then traveled under her skirt to caress her thigh. She kept swinging her body to get him off, but the more she tried, the harder he pushed her to the shelf. She closed her eyes to stop witnessing what was going on and a few seconds or maybe a minute passed, she felt the boy got away from her and her arms were free. She opened her eyes to catch George swinging a punch to the boy's face and knocking him to the floor. The boy got up, covering his mouth as he mumbled he was going to report them, both. George, caring less, turned to Deyanira, now with tender eyes and worry. He saw she was panting and covering her mouth with watery eyes.

"D-Dey…?"

"L-Leave, please", she said, trying to hold in the scream

"No, I won't leave you alon-"

"You have too!", she screamed at him, but shut her lips quick and covered her mouth with a hand.

She started to take deep breaths, trying to hold it in, just because he wouldn't leave. George gave a jump to her, just to wrap his arms around her; her hands fell against his chest, but the more she tried to push, the tighter he hugged. He knew she was having an attack and that she could scream any second, killing him, but he couldn't just leave her. The scent of from his neck started to go in her nose as she kept taking deep breaths. Her hands caressed her back and hair, making that soft touch calm her down. She felt her heart stopped pounding in her chest, but it beat faster. She felt the fury leaving her body and the urge to cry too. Those bad memories left her mind and the ugly moment she just went trough also left. She was just trembling, feeling weak in his arms. Her palms closed, raving his vest in them, as a sign of 'keep me close', at least George felt that's what she meant, so his arms hugged her tighter. He moved his head to kiss hers, close to the forehead and stayed with his lips planted on it. He closed his eyes to take in the moment, feeling his body about to shake and his heart about to explode.

"That bloody git!", Harry snapped in the common room after he heard the story. The three of them were alone, sitting on the couch with Dey on the middle, knees to her chest and arms wrapped around them, "who was it?"

"I don't know.", she said low

"Mike Court", George answered, "I recognized him."

"We must report him."

"He said he was going to do that to us.", she spoke, "'sides, he's a bloody prefect"

"So? I'm Harry Bloody Potter!", Harry let out and the other two chuckled, "I'll tell Dumbledore."

"Let it go, alright."

"I won't, Dey!", George said, making her look at him, "he was hurting you and he made you almost scream."

"He's right. He assaulted you."

"Tell Dumbledore if you want then.", she said, grumpy, and crossing her arms, making the guys laugh.

They decided to turn in for the night so the day would end already. The next morning when George came down with Fred, he spotted Deyanira just leaving.

"Um, see you-"

"Yeah, yeah, later", Fred said with a chuckled, "go on, Romeo!"

He gave his brother a push while he just grinned before leaving. When he left the Gryffindor common room, he stopped right in front of the portrait to look down the stairs and spotted her, not so far since she was going slow with arms crossed and looking down. With a smile appearing, he went down, pretty fast to catch her.

"Dey", he said when his foot touched the staircase she was on

"Huh?"

"Where were you?", he said with a chuckle

"Oh, um", she chuckled, shyly, as she placed her hair behind an ear, "yeah, kinda um…distracted"

"What's on your mind?", he asked, more serious now

"That…", she started, stopping and turning to him, making him stop and turn to her too, "I didn't thank you"

"For what?"

"For last night.", her hand slowly looked for his and he traced the entire movement until she spoke again, he looked back to her eyes, "if it weren't for you…you know."

"N-no problem, Dey…I told you I was here for you."

He smiled at her and she smiled back. When he looked down again to her hand, still holding his, she made a move towards him. He lifted his stare to look at her again, but his mind went blank when her lips touched his cheek. When she landed on her full feet again, her hand slowly slipped away from his. The only reason he let go so easily was because he was still paralyzed.

"…w-what was that for?", he asked looking at her again

"…for helping me. Like I said before.", she said, mentioning it again

"Right, right!", he said, realizing he already asked, "no problem", he put on a smile and felt his cheeks warming up, "wanna get breakfast?"

"Sure"

Both kept going downstairs until they got to the great hall and had their breakfast. Harry joined them a bit after, along with Ron and Hermione. During Charms, and all trough the morning, Deyanira hasn't been focused at all.

"Earth to Dey", Harry whispered and then chuckled when she gave a little jump

"Not funny"

"What has you so distracted?"

"…there's something I didn't tell you…about last night."

"What? Did George take advantage of you? When I get my hands on that git-"

"No, Harry", she said with a chuckled and Harry did too since he was joking

"…actually…after that guy left, you know I wanted to scream…well…I told George to leave, but he didn't. Instead he hugged me…after a few minutes…the urge to scream just stopped."

"…completely?"

"Yes."

"And he just…hugged you?"

"Yeah."

Harry put a thoughtfull look to play along with hers, but in a few seconds a devious grin came across his face as he turned it back to her.

"What?"

"It's obvious isn't"

"…no."

"You fancy him", he said with a proud smile and she sighed

"I thought we were passed that."

"You aren't."

She just rolled her eyes and groaned. Ron and Hermione have had their peaks to them all this time, seeing them laugh and speak in secret made them wonder so much. They thought Harry was hiding something from them and here comes this girl, out of nowhere, and he tells her everything. The lesson was over and everyone left for lunch. Harry and Deyanira were ahead, still arguing about the whole thing, which made them laugh. Ron and Hermione were walking a few feet behind them and once in a while looked at each other. When they got to the great hall, Harry sat beside Dey, in front of Ron and Hermione who were just in silence the first 5 minutes of the meal.

"Guys", Harry spoke to them and they looked, "do you think she fancies George?"

"Oh", Ron let out, "well I don't know, but I think George does. He's been acting weird since he met you."

"How weird?"

"Not himself…I really think he likes you"

Harry just grinned at her while she looked away, across the great hall. She saw Fred and George talking to some Hufflepuff guy and her eyes went just to George.

"I just don't believe it.", she said, shaking her head as she turned back to her plate

"Why?", Hermione asked

"I…I've never liked anyone before"

"Really?", Harry asked surprised, "no one?"

"No. You know, over protective parents, never really had a good relationship with a guy, not even guy friends, so…I don't know…how does it feel, Hermione?"

"Oh…well um…", she was stutter by the question, "you feel…weird…and it just depends…you just feel that the person his special and that you treat him differently."

"Do you feel you treat him differently?", Ron asked, making her go silence for a bit

"I don't know."

After a bit more of silence she started to eat, but then she realized something. The way she shook from that time his eyes caught hers. The way she grabbed his hand that time they were alone and he wanted to tell her something before Ron and Harry interrupted. And just that morning where she grabbed his hand, completely, and kissed his cheeks as a thank you. She hasn't grabbed Harry's hand when she feels he needs to talk, or kissed his cheek from all the time he has helped her in something. Only that hug after she screamed one time, but even there she noticed it was something different.
