Sapphire's P.O.V.
I walked out of my bedroom, expecting to pass through the Common Room, and then to the Great Hall for lunchtime. It's the first day of the holidays, and Autumn and I are staying, since our cramped 'home' in Diagon Alley isn't anywhere near the comfort of Hogwarts. I smiled for a moment, just as I walked, but recalled yesterday's events. I just couldn't believe their accusations of Sirius, but I couldn't help think sometimes..what if I was the wrong one in the situation and Sirius is guilty? Of course, the moment I have those cursed thoughts, I push them away, because I realize that I know things that everyone else doesn't...meaning I'm the only one who knows the truth. As I walked closer to the Common Room, I heard the children talk, and stopped.
"It's nearly lunchtime; I was going to come and wake you in a minute." It was Ron.
It was quiet, and I was thinking of walking at that point, but Hermione finally said something.
"You really don't look well, you know?"
"I'm fine." Harry said this.
"Look Harry, I know you're upset, but you shouldn't do anything stupid. You too, Autumn, especially." Hermione warned.
"Like what?" Autumn asked, sounding interested. And honestly, I was too.
"Like trying to go after Black." Ron said sharply. I gasped, and I heard something fall, like a quill, but no one saw me.
What do they know?! Would this be a good time to come out of this area? Or not?
"You won't, right..?" Hermione asked.
"Because Black's not worth dying for." Ron quickly added.
I missed everything that happened next, up until Ron said something. Of course, I was thinking and thinking. Now, what do I do? How do they even know...whatever they know? It haunted me and I was at a loss for actions or words.
"So are you saying you want to kill Black or something?" Ron asked.
"Don't be silly. Harry doesn't want to kill anyone, do you Harry?" Hermione was unsure.
There was more quiet, before Harry said
"Malfoy knows. Remember what he said to me in Potions? That if it were him, he'd hunt him down himself, wanting revenge."
Ron and Harry argued about Malfoy, Voldemort, and Sirius.
"...Your mum and dad wouldn't want you to get hurt, would they? They'd never want you to go looking for Black!"
"I'll never know what they'd have wanted, because thanks to Black, I've never spoken to my own parents!" Harry said shortly.
Okay that's it, I'm done eavesdropping, and it's time to go to see them.
"STOP IT! You two are best friends, don't argue. And besides," It was Autumn who spoke before I entered, and she continued softly. "Malfoy isn't that bad, and he might know something, but you shouldn't go looking for him. If anyone should, it might be me."
Her? HER? Looking for Sirius?
It was quiet for a moment, and I thought it was safe enough to go out.
I walked until I saw them and smiled, seeing no one return it.
"Erm, hi. I believe it's lunchtime, does anyone want to join me?" I waited a few seconds, no one spoke. Two, Three, Four, silence.
"Is that a no from everyone, then?" ...Quiet. And not to mention the frowns on all their faces.
"Right. Well enjoy the rest of your conversation."
I started to walk off, with no one saying anything.
"Wait, mum, how did you know we were even talking about anything? We could have just been working on homework." Autumn asked me to my back.
"Well, I don't know, I just assumed."
"Well," she began to mock me. "Learn not to assume."
"I'm sorry..?" I hesitated, unsure of really what to say. And then she groaned. I blinked, the period of my eyes being closed was longer than when they were open, and when I opened them back up, she was looking up at me.
"Why didn't you ever tell me?" With a few tears spilling, she ran off, Hermione after her. I stood, speechless, and began to walk towards the dormitory.
"Don't bother. I don't think she'll answer the door." Harry said, softly, but angry.
I sat down for a minute, and thought to myself.
Must everything be my fault?
A/N: Look I'm on a roll with updates. Haha, which also means I don't know when the next one will be. Oh well. Thanks for reading, comment how you think this chapter was. Byeee :) love ya guys! <3
