Looking out towards the lake from my tower, I starred at the glittering stars and wrote to my dad.

'Dear Daddy

I hope youre feeling better, I cant wait to see you at christmas only four days till I board the train and see you!...'

I stopped writing as the sound of footsteps invaded my ears and low mumbling voices, the door creaked open and Draco appeared as he closed the door Alexis came out from under the cloak.

"Hey" I said timidly, folding up my parchment, and resting my quill down, Lex walked up to me and hugged me, "Ermm, pardon me for interupting but I have news" Draco said, and we both starred at him.

"The headmaster said you, well we, we being you myslef and Gilbert, can stay in the room of requirement to help you clear youre head." He said and I nodded, "When do we go?" I asked, "Now" he said, I walked to my dorm and was invisbley stopped, "We just need to use the room to get our stuff silly" Alexis whispered and I walked down and out the common room and we headed straight to the room of requirement.

I closed my eyes, pictured a room and PJ's with seperate places to change, as well as food and stuff like that.

A door appeared and we stepped into a Blue and black sitting room with a sofa bed and one sleeping bag on the floor, "The sleeping bag is for Draco" I said and he huffed, I grabbed the PJ's I had imagined for myself and stood behind a screen and got changed, I walked out to see a shirtless Draco slipping his shirt on, okay lets just say, Im glad he's mine, he has a nice six pack.

We spent the night talking, stuffing our selves with treats and more, "I dont have to attend Slughorns christmas bash anymore, eventhough I was so looking forward to it" I said sarcastically, Lex giggled and Draco smirked, "Oh and I've been told you couldnt come!" i turned to Draco, "Couldnt go anyway, Snape wants to speak to me" he sighed.

We all talked more until my eyes went heavy and I slept.

I woke up in the morning and retrived my uniform and put it on, doing a quick clean spell to make me fresh. Once the other two were done we walked along to the hall, where everyone starred at me and went silent.

I walked to where we usually sit and found my post infront of where I sit, all eyes were still burning into me, "What are you all staring at!?" I snapped and they all went back to usual. I ate some toast before turning to my post.

I took the letter and opened it lightly and read.

A tear rolled down my cheek, this isnt happening, I sprinted out of the hall throwing the letter behind me, I ran until my legs ached and curled up into a sobbing ball next to the black lake, my mind racing, who did it? Who turned off my dads life support machine killing him in the night?

A/N: Not my best but it will do! Sorry for the disapointment.
