A/N: Sorry this chapter is sooo long overdue, but i have been super busy (obsessing over my new favourite movie). Yeah, when i watched Sweeney Todd i didn't know it was an 18... I was just desperate to watch it, and since i watched it three days ago, I have had the songs in my head 24/7 (3) I go to sleep with one in my head, I wake up with one in my head.

I even have Pirelli's Miracle Elixir in my head right now! and i can't tell my mum i watched it since im 13, but i have asked if i can read the book, and she will give me an answer tomorrow! It is quite handy though, since I just sing epiphany when i get mad at my sister, and then we both end up laughing so that's quite good.

I've also been editing S&L (1) and adding chapters in, making it make more sense and blah blah, and of course fixing my mistakes. And it was my sisters 8th birthday on Sunday, and we went to my Grandma's house yesterday, so she could have more prezzies. So yeah, I've been pretty busy.

Okay enough of me talking...

Enjoy ;-)

Chapter 26 – Valentines Day

February had rolled around, and it was the Valentines Hogsmeade weekend. The whole of Hogwarts was celebrating it earlier than usual, so that they could go to Hogsmeade with one another. The mood of the students and teachers was variable, they would either be in a very good mood, or a very bad mood.

Larissa awoke rather early, and saw that on her bed side table was a Valentines card for her. She picked it up, and looked at the front. It had an adorable illustration of two fluffy bunnies together on there surrounded by little glittery hearts. She smiled and opened it, it read:

Be my Valentine Larissa?

Meet me on the astronomy tower tonight at midnight on the real Valentines day.

Love Me xxx

She closed the card, as Amelia began to stir. Slowly the other girls were waking up, and after she had said good morning to them, Larissa went down to the Gryffindor common room, putting her Valentines card in her hand bag.

Harry was in a good mood, since he was going to Hogsmeade with his girlfriend Cho Chang, who had been his crush for the year previous. Larissa had convinced him to tell her about the Valentines day in his second year.

They were all due to leave for Hogsmeade in a minuet, so Harry went to meet Cho, while Larissa joined her friends and they walked over to the crowd of students that were going to Hogsmeade.

'Hey Larissa.' Draco said, coming through the crowd of excited giggling fourth year girls.

'Hi Dray,' Draco smiled at the use of his new nickname.

'So... Get any Valentines cards?'

She blushed slightly, and took the card out of her bag, and showed it to him.

'You carry it around in your bag?' he smirked

She flushed darker, and stuttered 'Well... I-I-No, I mean yes, maybe.'

'Settling for maybe are we?'

She glared at him, and he laughed, they said goodbye and Larissa went back to her friends.

'Where did you go?' Matthew asked, seeing her return

'I was with Draco,' she said casually

'You don't actually like him do you?' he asked incredulously

'He is my cousin, and he isn't as bad as everyone thinks.'

'But he called Hermione a you-know-what loads of times.' Ron said, joining in on the conversation

'Oh Ron, it really doesn't matter,' Hermione said, pulling him away.

They were soon interrupted, by Professor McGonagall leading them to Hogsmeade.

Larissa waited anxiously over the next few days, waiting for it to be Valentines day, and she really had absolutely no idea who he was, but she was desperate to meet him. But soon enough it arrived.

Larissa had to wait a while before she could go up to her dormitory and lay down in bed. She laid here for what seemed like hours, before the Amelia and Catherine came up to bed, and it must have been around eleven when Emily finally came up. She waited for Emily's breathing to even out, and she knew that she was asleep along with the other girls. Larissa crept out of bed and into the bathroom, brushing her hair, and getting ready.

When it was ten to twelve, she made her way out of the common room, and up to the astronomy tower, she had to hide from Mrs Norris a few times, and the last time, she had to hide in a broom cupboard that she had to magically unlock, before continuing.

Larissa climbed the stairs to the tower, finally about to meet the person that she had been wondering about since Christmas. She stopped on the last step, and taking a breath of the cold night air, she stepped up from the last stair, and took a few steps forward.

She looked around, trying to see if there was anyone hidden in the shadows, but it was very dark, the moon was barely a slither, and the stars didn't give off much light.

'Your late, my pet, I thought, for a moment, that you weren't coming.' He said, she felt a flicker of annoyance, she was no one's pet, she was no one's property. But his voice, a cold drawl, that she would recognise anywhere, and she found that she didn't mind.

A/N: Aggh CLIFF HANGER! And if I feel mean, (reviews make me happy) then I might make you wait until tomorrow to find out who it is! Or... If I am feeling super nice (and guilty about leaving you for a few days) then I shall finish the next chapter now (which i will probably do anyway) but I might post it today... (*Hint Hint*)

I didn't want this to happen until next year, but otherwise it won't really make sense, so it kind of had to happen now, anyway she's my age so... I'm sure she'll be fine...

Please review
