Chapter 26 - The Party

"Harry" I said jumping into his arms and engulfing him into a huge, tight hug, that probably would've made Cedric jealous. His hands went around my waist and mine went around his neck, puberty didn't do me any good in regards to height, I had other changes to my body, which made me look more appealing than ever before, but my height was still short. He kissed my cheek and quickly put me down and smiled lightly. 

I knew Harry liked me. But he was my best friend, and he was kind of looking a bit distracted. We all sat down to talk, I handed everyone beers and served some snacks.

"Wow, this is absolutely delicious, love. Did you make it?" Fred asked taking a bite of my special Pomegranate Glazed Meatballs. I nodded and said, "Yes, every snack here is my specialty. What you're eating are Pomegranate Glazed Meatballs, that what Ron is hogging are Baked Garlic Parmesan Potato Wedges, leave some for the others as well, Ronald, and there's a lot more different snacks on the table, that I'm sure you'll love"

I was sitting with Cedric and there were little groups formed already, the trio was together, my stay back family was together, the twins were near the table making weird drinks.

"So, before I forget" he said placing a hand on my waist. Oh no, it's happening, he's gonna tell me that he likes me, I cannot turn him down- 

"You look fabulous" he said smiling. I sighed and said, "Thank you. You don't look bad yourself"

"Can I steal Liv for a moment?" Hermione asked politely, placing both of her hands on my shoulder. Cedric nodded and went to talk to Chris.

"What is it, Mione?" I asked her while sipping my beer.

"Where'd you get the piano? The last time I was here, there wasn't any piano and I didn't know you played piano" she asked as we went away from Cedric.

"Oh, erm, yeah I play piano. Erm, Draco gave me that as a gift" I said while rubbing the back of my neck.

"WHAT?" she yelled and everyone looked at us.

"Shh, Mione. What the bloody hell? Keep it down" I said pulling her into the kitchen.

"I'm not gonna keep it, those things are expensive. Very expensive" I said as we were getting the dinner ready. She nodded and we left the kitchen.

Soon, we all sat down at the dining table for dinner and gossiping, Harry hadn't touched his food, his fork was playing with the mashed potatoes and he was distracted from the conversation we were having. He was sitting next to me. I placed my hand on his and said, "Harry, is, erm everything okay?"

He smiled and said, "Yes, nothing for you to worry about" and started eating. At least he was eating. Everyone soon left after the dinner, leaving the trio behind, I was cleaning up in the kitchen and came out.

"You have to tell her" Hermione said looking at Harry.

"Tell whom what?" I asked wiping my hands with the towel.

"Go on, Harry" Ron said pushing him towards me.

"Erm, its probably nothing, but I have been having these- these dreams lately, nightmares actually" he said as we sat down on the couch.

"I have been having them since the break started, you have been in them, every one of them, with a snake" he said looking down at his hands.

"Do you know what any of that means?" he asked now looking at me, then Hermione and Ron.

"Erm, no. Means nothing to me" I said placing my hand on his shoulder.

"Don't think too much into it, Harry. It's just nightmares, you know? Everything will be okay" I said smiling and he smiled back.
