Day Back in School

04:08, 5 August 2024

After I dropped Charity off at my room and grabbed the mirror Draco and I changed into our uniforms and headed to the Great Hall where everyone was already eating. One by one students looked at us as we walked to the Slytherin table.

I squeezed Dracos hand. "We missed the opening speech... but it was bad so it doesn't matter. I'll tell you in our room."

"Alright." Draco's presence at the Slytherin table made people open a seat for us and we sat down. "See?" Draco whispered. "Not soft."

I rolled my eyes and sat down next to Draco, he started to plate my food and I took his plate and moved food onto his. Then placed it back down onto his setting and gave him a smile.

He sighed at the counter active thing I just did, I squeezed his hand. "Just let me take care of you as well."

Draco squeezed my hand back. "Alright, eat." I nodded and picked up my fork.

I looked around the room at the students who are sneaking glances towards us in a very un-sneaky way. Most were judging, some females who don't understand our journey were envious, then those who just wanted to catch sight of the rings to know if the rumors are true... Then there was the 'she's crazy' from other homes... Most were judging, some on how sick I look.

"Don't look at them." I looked at Draco and my thoughts shrunk to just his. "I'll send my mother a letter and see if she can find your blindfold."

I nodded. "Alright." I looked back at my food and ate, my hand on Draco's holding on as not clingy a clingy action could be. "I should package up some food." I laid my napkin on my lap.

"Do you want me to make a sandwich?" Draco asked quietly, I nodded. . . .

After dinner and most of the students left Draco lead me back to the Slytherin common rooms.

"Miss Solace." That familiar deep deadpan voice called out from behind us, Draco and I stopped to look at Snape. "May I have a word?"

I looked at Draco and nodded, Draco let go of my hand and walked down the hall but not to far. My mood changed without Draco and I turned to Snape who was looking over me with thoughts almost the same as Draco.

He look at me sternly. "You look terrible."

(He's still honest. Good.)I nodded. "I have slept a full night in a while."

Snape raised a brow. "And why is that?"

"Dolohov came over... Hermione obliviated his memories and he, um... He asked if I could find the memory which I did... Now I keep dreaming his memories."

Snape sighed. "Have you tried a Sleeping Draught?"

My fingers fiddled with each other. "I feel trapped when I take that... I'm fine, Snape. I have Draco." A hand slid into mine and my mood brightened.

"We have a job to do Snape. If you don't mind." Draco said.(I almost forgot about Prefects.)

Snape nodded. "Yes." He walked away.

"Come on." Draco squeezed my hand, I looked at him. "I want you to go to the room and call when I am doing rounds."

I sighed. "He won't want to talk with me." Draco gave me an evil eye, I frowned. "Alright."

Draco pulled me into a quick kiss. "I'll come as soon as I can." I nodded, Draco let go of my hand and walked down the corridor.

I turned and walked to our room. (Why would Sirius want to talk to me? I'm... I dont know.)

I walked into the Slytherin common room than up to my bedroom and knocked before entering, Miss Burbage was sitting on the bed with washed hair and one of my nightgowns on.

"I brought you food." I walked the napkin of food to her.

She took it. "Thank you, Miss Solace."

"You can call me whatever name you want." She nodded and paid out the food on the bed. "I will find you somewhere better than this. I need to contact a friend."

She nodded. "You've done so much already, Olivia. I'm fine here."

I nodded. "But a safe house would be more comfortable. You wouldn't have to hide. I'm going to contact my friend when I get to my room. I'll see what he can do."

She nodded. "Thank you, Olivia."

I nodded and walked out and to Draco and my bedroom, I grabbed the mirror I left in my dresser drawer and sat down on the bed.

(Alright. Just open and call for him... What would I even say? He can't help me stop the nightmares... Maybe I can ask him for a safe house for Charity.)

I opened the mirror and fixed my hair. "Sirius Black." I looked over my raccoon eyes and pale features. "Sirius Black?"

"Bloody hell." Ron appeared in the mirror. "This is a two way mirror."

"Liv." Mione stepped closer, I closed the mirror.

(Why... Where's Sirius? Why are they there?)My fingernail slid between the opening of the mirror.

I opened the mirror again. "Hello?" The mirror connected again and both of them stared at me while Harry glared. "Where's Sirius?"

"He's-."

"Don't." Harry warned Ron. "What do you want Olivia." I frowned.

Mione gave Harry a death glare then looked at me. "Liv. Are you alright? You look horrible."

"I... I'm fine. Can I talk to Sirius?"

"He's not here." Mione said, I nodded. "What's happening to you, Liv?"

"Feeling guilty?" Harry mumbled.

I looked at him. "When everything comes to light, Harry. You will be the one feeling the most guilty for not trusting your friends." I said calmly

Harry scoffed. "I have my friends with me. You betrayed us." He scowled. "You're friends are probably on their way here now. Aren't they?"

"Harry." Mione scolded, Harry looked at her. "Leave." Harry huffed and walked away, Mione stepped closer. "Liv?"

I looked at her. "Dolohov knows you were at the cafe."

Both of their eyes widened. "But I used the-."

"Memory spell." I completed. "Dolohov came to me and... I searched his memories. But I only told him about Harry."

"How did you find his memory when Hermione obliviated it?"

I looked at Ron. "I have enhanced Legilimancy skills. I can search through a person's memories by skin contact. Read thoughts. And.." (see futures.)

"And what?" Mione asked.

I shook my head. "I'll tell you later. But I really need to speak to Sirius."

"Why?"

"I just need someone to talk to." Mione shooed Ron away, he left and Mione looked at me. "I can't sleep anymore, Mione. My dreams are filled with Dolohovs memories. Draco's waking me if it happens but..."

"Oh, Liv." Mione cooed.

(I dont need help.)I looked at my lap. "Where's Sirius, Mione." I looked back up. "I need to ask him a favor."

"He's at a safe house with everyone else from the Order."

"He's not at his home?" Mione shook her head, I sighed. "Who else is there?"

"Harry and Ron, Kreacher as well." I nodded. "Why? What's wrong?"

"Voldemort was going to kill Miss Burbage but I asked to have her for scientific reasons." Mione eyes widened slightly. "I made her an Animagus, a butterfly and she is in my dorm here but she can't stay. I need a safe house for her. But if you guys are there I don't know if I trust that information with anyone."

"We don't know any other safe places, Liv. Im sorry."

"It's alright." The door opened and Draco walked in. "I have to go. Bye." I closed the mirror.

Draco walked over to me and sat on the bed. "Did you talk? You look a little happier."

I nodded. "It was a short talk." I laid down and pulled him down as well. "How was patrolling?"

"Uneventful." He kissed my forehead. "How about we change for bed and then cuddle."

"Alright."
