(A/N: Sorry it's late, long day.)

Hermione, Harry and I walk together. We're in King's Cross station walking towards our platform, Hermione bumps me with her shoulder before giving me a cheeky smile. I return both and Harry gives us an amused scoff. When we got back from court about a week ago, she gave me another extremely tight hug. Turns out her and Ron got Prefect. I didn't because I curse too much. Surprise surprise.

A familiar black dog crosses between me and Harry before trotting into a room as Harry chases after it, leaving his cart in the middle of the walk. "I'll catch up with you in a minute!"

"I've got it!" Dad calls, in reference to Harry's cart. Me and Hermione continue forward, eventually getting to the train and finding seats a little bit before the others show up. Ron first, then Harry as he stares out of the window, obviously zoned out. The cats and the owls are perched about and Ron stares expectantly at the door.

"Dude, she's probably no coming." I grunt.

"Who?" Ron asks, catching me off guard. Either he's stupid or trying to bullshit me.

"Ava, you idiot."

His eyes light up a bit and a smile worms onto his face after hearing her name, yet he still plays dumb, "Ava? Didn't she go to the ball with Krum?"

"Don't play dumb, Gingernuts." I hum. Ron hides his glowing-red face. Hermione giggles a bit and I lean against her until Harry clears his throat.

"Sammy, there's something you should see." Harry says before he pulls out a picture of sorts and hands it to me. In the centre, there's Sirius and Harry's dad being hugged by Dad. Harry's mom and mine stand at either side of the boys, but Mom's hand is set on Dad's hand. The hand which rests on Harry's dad's shoulder. Dumbledore, Lupin, Hagrid and the Longbottoms are other friendly faces clearly visible as well. "That's the original Order." Harry says, "My Dad and yours always fought. Colson wanted to do things logically and Dad acted on impulse and emotion. With Dad, it was luck. With Colson, it was technical skill. When Dad died, they weren't on speaking terms." Harry looks down, "Do you think we'll end up the same?"

"Harry, you're my brother, right?"

"Yeah..."

"Then you don't need to ask that question. You and I are glued together now." I hand him back the picture. "And we're both incredibly impulsive anyway, I don't quite know where I get it from."

"Aww, when are you two gonna marry?" Hermione teases.

"I don't know," I shrug, "How does next Tuesday sound, Glasses?"

"I don't know, but I'd like an on-the-spot eloption." Harry shrugs.

"Nah, I'm an expensive bitch. We're having a ceremony." I joke. We all laugh.


We all step off the express in the dark town of Hogsmeade to hear an unwelcome voice. Malfoy. "I'm surprised the ministry's still letting you two walk around free. Especially you, Potter. You'd better enjoy it while you can. I expect there's a cell in Azkaban with your name on it!" I push away the anger, but Harry can't. He nearly lunges at Draco before Ron grabs him, making the platinum blonde nearly leap in fright and skimper away to his cronies. "What'd I tell you? Complete nutter!"

"Just stay away from me!" Harry yells as the Slytherins retreat.

"It's only Malfoy. What'd you expect?" Ron says in a futile attempt to calm Harry down as the fuckboys get in their carriage and ride away. Harry pulls away from Ron crossley and me and Hermione share a look. Harry is in a bad place. I jog to catch up with him. He's staring at someone. Cho.
