I was sitting in a field, drowning in my endless thoughts, watching the puffy clouds pass by, begging me to chase them into the forest.
This field was only a couple of minutes' walk away from Hogwarts; I loved coming here alone, sometimes with Tom.
Something got triggered and a memory washed over me, Tom and I were leaning against an old tree staring at the castle that towered above us.
The warm breeze caressed my cheeks as I bathed in the comfort Tom's presence gave me.
"Hey gorgeous?" Tom muttered and glanced at me quickly.
I hummed in reply, still staring at the castle.
"You know how I can't cast a patronus right?" He murmured.
I gazed at him, it was the only spell he never managed to be able to cast, "Yeah."
"Well erm, I was practicing this morning and well I thought of this er thing, and well I did it." He spoke quickly; a red tint appeared on his cheeks.
I smiled, "What was thing you were thinking about." I teased.
"Well it was more of a person," he trailed off.
I raised an eyebrow at him, he huffed out a breath.
"It was you." He whispered loud enough for me to hear.
My mouth gaped open only just slightly, I stared at him in shock, me? What was so special about me?
"What was it?" I sputtered out trying to distract from the fact my cheeks were tomato red.
"Adder snake," he breathed out.
I suppressed a laugh; I smiled and leaned towards him.
"Here's a secret..." I whispered to him.
"I thought of you too when I cast my patronus." I admitted.
He looked at me in disbelief, and then smiled this big smile and it looked genuine.
The first real smile I had ever seen on his face.
That was the end of the memory,
I smiled at it, I heard rushed footsteps coming from behind me, and I turned to see Narcissa rushing towards me.
"The Dark Lord is declaring war now, they're all fighting- you have to stay away-" she gasped out.
I got up, frowning, "Calm down Cissa, whose declaring war?" I questioned.
"Tom." She whimpered to me.
"Shit." I mumbled and started running towards the castle.
"NO- You can't! He told me to keep you away!-" I heard her scream out behind me.
I kept running, my legs aching from the unexpected movement.
I heard her voice fade as I ran farther and farther from her.
I neared the castle and could hear and see chaos, a skull shape symbol was in the sky, spells were being cast everywhere.
Unknown people in black were shooting spells at people I knew, people I saw every day at school, I had to stop this.
I ran over the grounds, looking for the person behind all of this. Tom.
I was about to give up searching and just start helping to defend other people against these death eaters, I heard they called themselves that.
Then I saw Tom standing there, in a corner, nobody suspecting a thing.
I ran up to him, he looked at me with surprise in his face, then anger and frustration washed over his features.
