Jay POV

I had been having lovely dreams. Well, they weren't really dreams, just words in a black place. I could feel Dessah with me, helping me with homework, and I imagined Lily brushing my hair, and finishing my Nicholas Sparks book for me. I could also sense sweet Brina, reading me from her fairytale collection, and talking to me about the latest gossip.

There was also a woman, who's voice I didn't recognize. But she seemed nice, like she wanted to take care of me. I also heard Potter and another man in my head once or twice, something I found odd. Why was I dreaming of Potter? Finally, the Zabinis were all with me, talking to me, and thanking me. But I didn't hear Blaise, I hope he's OK.

After a while, I was tired of hearing voices. But when I tried to open my eyes and see them, I was hit by a blinding bright light. I let out a small groan, and shut them, before trying once again.

After my vision clearing, I could make out a woman. She appeared to be in her fifties, she had dark red hair, and pretty blue eyes. She had a look of concern on her face, but it suddenly filled with relief.

"Where am I?" I croaked. My voice felt as if it hadn't been used in days.

The mystery woman gave me a small smile.

"You're in the hospital wing, dear, you've been unconscious for about five days now." OK, if I wasn't awake then, I was now.

"What?" I shrieked, sitting up in bed. "The quidditch match is tomorrow! Ravenclaw will pummel us!" I cried. I had really wanted to beat up Dessah's house.

She softly pushed me back so I was laying on the bed again.

"You will do fine," she paused, and a smile formed on her lips. "that is if Pomfry lets you play." She said in a teasing voice. I shuddered at the thought of missing a game. I suddenly realized, I had no idea who this lady was.

"Not to sound rude, but who are you?" I questioned her. She just laughed lightly, it sounded like tinkling bells.

"I'm Jackie Potter, James' mother." She smiled. I froze, shocked. This was Potter's mom? He didn't look anything like her! But when I looked closer, I realized I was wrong. The had the exact same nose and face shape, and they both had them same smile.

"It's a pleasure to meet you Mrs. Potter, but why am I here?" I questioned, deciding to stay polite.

Her face immediately took on a frown.

"You don't remember?" I shook my head, was it that bad?

"Jay, I don't know how to tell you this, but my husband and I found you outside, barely conscious. Blaise, he's dead." My heart stopped at those words, and my world came crashing down around me as it all came back. Me spending the entire day with Potter, talking about the order. And the entire time, Blaise had been walking to his death. He left me.

"Jay? Are you alright? Do you need anything?" Jackie demanded. I needed out.

Once again I ran, but this time I had no destination. I ran through the castle walls. And the next thing I knew, I crashed into someone.

"Oof- are you OK? Jay? Why aren't you in the hospital wing?" I looked into the eyes of Potter, and was surprised to see sorrow in them, along with guilt and regret. And then I remembered that Blaise was one of his friends to.

Before I knew what I was doing, I had flung my arms around him and was bawling into his shoulders. He gently returned the hug, attempting to console me. And soon enough, I felt his own tears soaking into my sleeve.

"I swear to Merlin, Barton." He mumbled, wiping his eyes. "If you tell anyone I cried, I will kick your sorry butt in the quidditch cup. I just laughed.

"Right back at you Potter, and thanks."

He opened his mouth, most likely to ask what for, when he was interrupted.

"Oi! Prongsie-poo! Why are you hanging out with that snake? Come on, I want to go to lunch!" Sirius Black called, appearing around the corner. Potter and I shared a look, both thinking the same thing. "No one finds out about this."

If word about this friendship or whatever it was got out, I don't now what would happen, but I would definitely be sleeping with one eye open in my room.

"Nothing Padfoot, just telling her to watch where she's breathing, I don't want to get her germs all over me." Potter replied, sending me an apologetic glance over his shoulder as he went to join Black. I just gave him a small smile, before turning back to the hospital wing, ready to face the music.

JB-JB-JB-JB-JB-JB-JB-JB

To say the past few hours was torture is a serious understatement. I had spent the rest of the day on bed rest, catching up on homework, and being smothered by the girls, who nearly tackled me when they first entered the hospital wing.

Flashback

I had only been in bed for five minutes, when suddenly the door burst open with a bang, and my three best friends entered the room.

"OHMIGOSH JAY!" Brina shrieked at an impossible level, before chucking herself across the room and into my lap. We both fell backwards with a huge groan from the bed due to the added weight.

"Jaylin Barton! How dare you leave the hospital wing like that!? What if Potter hadn't found you! What if you collapsed? What if you got kidnapped?" Hadassah raged, my view of her was blocked by Sabrina however, who still sat in my lap clinging on to me. I swear she was vibrating.

"Sorry Dessah." I said, pulling out my best puppy dog face, the secret to dealing with mother like women, they're suckers for wounded puppies.

"Oh, it's alright, just be more careful." She sighed in defeat And victory is mine.

"Jay? How are you doing? Are you going to be able to play tomorrow?" Lily asked in concern.

"I'm fine, Lils, just tired, and I'm playing in that bloody game even if I have to sneak out." I laughed at her.

"That's our Paws, we missed you and your wonderfully beautiful sarcasm!" Sabrina sniffed, ruffling my hair in the process. I just laughed.

End Flashback.

I had been told I needed to stay another day or so, since they needed to make sure I was emotionally stable. I think the worst part, however, was when they contacted my parents. To say they were in hysterics was an understatement. And to top this all off, I was now being recommended to consoling.

In all honesty, I knew that that would just piss me off. I didn't want to talk about my private memories. I just wanted to keep mine and Blaise's special moments to myself. But most of all, I wanted to honor him, and I think I knew how…

Brandon POV

I was sitting alone on the couches in the Slytherin common room, the others all knowing that I wanted to be alone.

It had almost been a week and I was still in shock. Why Blaise? Why my baby brother? Why would he leave me.

He was always so happy and full of life. He could end any awkward situation, and was always coming up with the lamest jokes ever. I just didn't understand why he felt the need to end it all so fast.

We had recently received a full report. He had snuck off the grounds and jumped in front of a train. The only mystery now is why he did it.

"Brandon? Can we talk?" I looked up to see one of me and my brothers' closest friends, Jay. Of course, who else would approach me when I am mentally unstable?

"Hey, Jay." I said, offering her a weak smile. I felt bad, only visiting her once in the hospital wing, she had to be hurting just as much as me.

"How're you doing?" She asked softly, sitting down beside me. I winced, I really didn't know how I was doing.

"I'm not really sure," I said, fumbling for the right words. "I'm just kinda numb, you know? In shock I guess."

"Yeah, I think the whole castle is. It's so quiet, even the first years haven't been talking."

"It's probably going to be like that for a while, oh, and by the way, we have to hold tryouts for a new chaser on Sunday." I said, feeling sick at the thought of replacing my brother.

Jay apparently agreed, because her eyes misted over once again.

"This whole thing is sick, no one even knows why he did it! Did they find a note or anything?" She demanded. I just sighed.

"Nope, nothing. But I know you didn't come here to talk about feelings Jay, what's up?' I questioned. Blaise might have been closer to her, but I knew her enough to know she was planning something. I was right.

A grin came onto her face.

"How much savings do you have all together?" Wait, what?

"Uhhh…I don't know, why?" She held up a sheet of paper, I looked at it to see a small brown building, with large windows going all the way around.

"How do you feel about opening a café?"
