I was in hogsmeade. Before everyone else.

"Can you believe it Simon ask me to visit his family for the holidays."

"Sounds wonderful." I told her looking through the book shelves for anything remotely interesting.

"Alright, sorry." I look at her. "I know you had a thing for him..."

"No I didn't." I grabbed one and went over to pay for it. "Simon is my friend besides you two look happy together. I really am happy for the both of you."

"Not Simon." she said coming to my side as I finished paying. "I'm talking about him. Davina, he doesn't deserve to be crying over for. He's not worth the heartache. I'm not trying to be rude but you need to hear it so you can move on. I hate seeing you like this. You can't spend your life moping over him."

"Alice, he was my first." I thanked the cashier and we walk out. "He'll always be my first and there nothing I can do about that. You're right, he's not worth it but it is going to take me sometime to get over it. Besides, I have other things to worry about."

We were walking through an alley.

"Like what stuffing your head in your school assignments?"

"Like worrying about Voldemort coming after my brother." I gave her a harsh look. "I don't care if he's the chosen one, if anything happens to my brother I can never live with myself. And I think we both know that the Dark Lord would kill me to get to Harry. I hate how he wants to protect me and still throw himself into danger while he still think I can't handle myself."

She gave me a sad and hurt look. "I'm sorry. But I dont like thinking the entire world is on your shoulders because its not."

"No its not, I'm sorry if I haven't been myself. I'm sorry that I'm yelling but i can't lose him Alice. I can lose my friends either. Yes what Draco did hurt me, and I hate myself for letting myself think I could ever have love. You are my best friend Alice, I'm happy for you. But please understand... I'm not the same anymore. You arent either. Everything's changing. And I can't sleep thinking each day might be the day I could lose everyone else that I care about."

She embraced me and I hugged her back. "I'm not going anywhere and you know it." We pulled away and grabbed both my hands "I'm sorry but you're stuck with me till the bitter end. This war is a part of you as it for me. Everyone agrees with that. That's why we joined the DA last year. We know what's coming and we beileve in you and Harry. And that's why my parents also joined the Order. I'm fighting with you and you can't stop me."

"What did I do to deserve a friend like you?"

"You know how to tolerate me and we work great together."

"That we do."

She linked arms with me.

"Now, how about we go get some butterbeer?"

I nodded and we went over to the three broomsticks. We sat down towards the back and ordered two butterbeers. Simon was going to join us later with Neville and Seamus. I felt myself going to burst into tears again.

"I'll be back." I told Alice as soon as Simon, Seamus, and Neville walked in.

I went to the restroom, which was upstairs and lock the door. I leaned against the sink and opened the faucet to splash my face with some water. Afterwards I closed the tab and dried my face. I look at myself and saw the small little bags under my eyes. God I look awful. I first fix my hair again, this time letting it down. I removed my scarf and pick up the locket my godfather had given me. I opened it and inside was one picture of my parents on side. Another of Harry and me from last year in the room of requirement. I fip the middle and there was two more pictures. Me, Hermione, Ginny and Alice. And Harry, me, Remus, and Sirius. The locket was magic and it could hold more picture if I wanted to but there was no one else. Sure there were others but harry out those picture in the book where our other pictures were. 

After looking at my locket, I cloased it and place it back down, letting it hang from the chain around my neck. Fixing myself up one last time, I grabbed my scarf then headed back out.

"Everything alright?" Neville asked me.

"Fine." I said.

"So who's excited for the first quidditch match in a few weeks?" Simon said.

"Even though it's not Gryffindor team playing?" I asked looking at my drink.

"It's still quidditch." Seamus went on.

"Who's playing again?" Alice asked.

"Slytherin versus Ravenclaw." Neville said drinking his butterbeer.

"Oh by the way Davina." Seamus said catching my attention. "Happy birthday."

"Thanks Seamus." I said smiling at him.

~~~~~~~~~~~

It was the first quidditch match today. Slytherin versus Ravenclaw. Even though our house wasn't playing we still went. It was cold and you could tell it was going to snow soon. I was in the stands with everyone else. Harry was standing in front of me with Hermione, Ron and Neville.

I saw the Slytherin team coming out and notice one person wasn't there. Draco.

"Where's Malfoy?" Ginny whispered to Alice.

"Dont know. Is he still on the team?" They whispered to each other.

"Guess not. Werid."

It was weird. He absolutely loved quidditch, and wouldn't dare miss a game. It wasn't like him at all.

The game commenced and there was another player filling in his spot. Something wasn't settling right about the fact that he didn't show up for a game. I push that feeling and buried it down inside of me. I shouldn't have to worry about him. It's just one game, and why do I care or worry about him.

The game had ended and no one else had talk about the fact that Malfoy was missing. I mean I heard a few Slytherins talking about it once while we were leaving the stands. They sounded disappointed. I figure he was probably not feeling well or he made a fuss about having to show up, something along those lines.

Stop it Davina!

I was with Ginny in the common room. Even though we were two of the only three, she and Dean had another fight. I stayed out of it but then Dean had just left and Ginny walk over and cried. I placed my book down and went over and comfort her, slowly rubbing her back and letting her place her head on my lap as we look into the fire.

"How do you do it?" Ginny ask. "Deal with the pain?"

"I don't think I'm the right person to be talking about relationship stuff, Gin." I admit it.

"And yet you manage to get through each day."

After an hour we grabbed out things and went to potions with Slughorn. We got started and work together to do the work with our partner.

"Excellent you two." Slughorn said once we were done with ours. "Very excellent."

Class ended and we all gathered our things. I was about to walk out when I turned back and walk over to Professor Slughorn.

"Professor."

"Yes my dear?" he asked.

"I was wondering about something."

"And what would that be?" he gestured me to sit down in the front seat. I did so and place my books down.

"My brother was talking to me about the first day of his potions class. And he told me he walk in on you talkin bout a certain love potion."

"Ah yes, Amortentia. One of the most dangerous love potions to ever existed. Now why would you ask about such a thing?"

"Its not that, I was curious that maybe if there was something to make one person not.... Never mind it's silly." I started to grab my things.

"You're heartbroken." I froze when I walk around the desk. I look at him and he had this sympathetic look. "My dear, I don't wish to give you such thing to ease a broken heart. Nor do I advise making a potions to forget the one you loved. I'm may be old and not sure but by the look in your eyes he is probably as broken hearted or in misery as you are."

"Not likely sir."

He walk over and sat in front of me. "You are a strong and brilliant young women, just like your mother. Believe me I've seen her in you just like your brother. But you have more of her personality. I remember when she began dating James, your father. It was their seventh year. He'd grown a bit more mature then in his prior years pulling mischief and such."

I smiled. "No one ever talk about how they met sir. Harry and I barely know them."

"Believe me, your father was constantly asking her to be his." he chuckled. "Everytime she's turn him down. It was one of those thing everyone knew. But he changed, matured a bit but was still the same prankster he was. The wonders what love can accomplish. Yet so mysterious. My advice my dear, be happy, enjoy your life. You can do wonderful things. Who knows perhaps one day you'll find someone who will change you to be the best of yourself. But all in due time."

"Thank you Professor." I said with a smile.

"Not at all."

I held onto my books and walk out  heading to charms and sat down next to Alice.

"Where have you been?" She ask concerned.

"Talking to Professor Slughorn." I said giving her a small smile. "I'm fine Alice really."

"Well I'm still here if you want to talk about it."

"Thanks."

Third POV

Draco had skip class again. He was in the room of requirement trying to fix the vanishing cabinet. After working on it for hours he sat down and leaned against a pillar. He pulled out a book from his bag and heard something else fall out. Looking over he saw the necklace. It pained him to see it, because it reminded him of her. The one person, who he thought of to keep his sanity in control. A reminder of the light in mist of the darkness that was consuming him.

Carefully he pick it up and place it on  the palm of his hand, while his thumb brush over the jewel.

He knew he couldn't give it back to her unless he wanted to have it thrown back at him. Even though she didn't really threw it back.

Prior to the end of the previous year. After Umbridge had her and her brother duelings to show everyone how "dangerous" learning defensive magic was, after she had fell unconscious. He couldn't bare it anymore, so he went to the library and look through books until he found a protection charm to put on the necklace. He wanted to know no matter what she was doing or what was happening she would be safe. That was want comfort him with the year. She was safe and he made sure of it.

Now... now he ruined and shut out the one person he dread of being with the most. He knew it wasn't possible to ask the dark lord to spare her mercy, while he kills her brother. Especially now that Draco knows that there is life link connecting the two siblings.  Kill harry she dies, kill her she dies. When he read it, he prayed it was his mind messing eith him. That this wasnt possible, but it wasnt. Now to save her he would have to save Harry.

But his time was ticking away. His task had to be done. And because his father failed his mission. As punishment the dark lord made Draco into one of them and gave him a difficult task. He was determined to succeed, he didn't want to die. Leave his mother alone, leave Davina.

Draco rolled up his left sleeve and look at the dark mark that was on his forearm. He was marked. There was no use to run. He'll kill him either way. When he learn about his father being a death eater, it hurt Draco. To see his father putting faith into darkness.

All Draco wanted to do was grab Davina and run away. That was before his learning the truth. Now her best hope was him keeping his distance and completing his task. Even though it was killing him inside. He had to. For him, she deserves someone who would love her and remain good, not consume to the darkness.

~~~~~~~~~

Yay! Another chapter done!

Draco knows about the life link between Harry and Davina. If your wondering how, he had read her journal remember. But fear not theres hope at the end of this tunnel.

Also I might not update the chapter until tomorrow or the day after (maybe one more today if time is on my side).

I hope you enjoyed this chapter. Till next time!
