IT had been a few weeks since the second task and Liana had completely glossed over all the issues with Harry.

To Ron, Hermione, Fred, George and Grey it was impossible to tell what was going on between the two but it seemed to be more than friendship.

More often than not Hermione would come down in the mornings to find the two curled up on the common room sofas together. Liana's head resting against Harry's shoulder and Harry with his arms fastened around Liana, both of their faces with faint smiles still pressed against their cheeks.

However Liana currently sat on the steep steps of the Owlery, enjoying the weather of that sunny day. It was a Saturday, meaning she could spend the day however she pleased so she had settled with her current reading book on the stairs.

The book was called 'the quest to find missing people'. It was one of interest to her as she was well aware of the holidays approaching and was more than eager to get back out on the streets to continue her searches for her parents. Although this time she considered going a different route, she had wondered about trying to find Leonard next as he seemed to be more careless than Aubrey and could've possibly left more clues behind.

"Liana?"

The girl raised her head to glance up and immediately broke out into a wide beam. Grey stood on the steps, his chocolate brown eyes wide and his hands were twisting by his sides in a nervous fashion.

"Erm- can I sit?" asked Grey, awkwardly swaying from foot to foot. Liana nodded and shifted over to make room for Grey on the step beside her.

"How can I help you Grey?" she asked with a smile, trying to slip her book undetected into her school bag but Grey caught sight of the messy movement and swiftly pulled the book out of her hands.

"The quest to find missing people-" Grey read the title aloud and turned to his younger sister with a raised eyebrow.

"Really Liana? Spending last summer as a runaway wasn't enough for you?"

Liana shrank back at his harsh tone, something that was unusual for the awkward and shy Hufflepuff. She stuck her bottom lip out slightly in disappointment.

"But I just thought what if i missed something, or- or maybe I could try and find Leonard this time-?" Liana mumbled, looking down to her scuffed school shoes, the untied laces tangled into knots now. Grey sighed as he watched his sister, he knew that Liana wouldn't give up her ridiculous mission to find their parents at least until she got closure.

"Fine, you know what?" Grey spoke up at last, tucking Liana's book under his arm. Liana looked up.

"What?" She asked, frowning as he put her book into his own school bag now.
