When two worlds collide.

Acceptance.

I lay on my bed in my dorm, the green and gold walls add depth to the room, which makes it darker.

It's been a few days and I haven't answered the door to anyone, or let anyone in.

My momentary weakness is over. It's time to pull myself together.

I button up my white shirt, tying my tie and pulling my skirt up. I slip my robe on and curl my hair as I walk out.

I go down to the commons room where Hermione, Ron, Harry, Theo, Fred, George, Luna, Draco, Elizabeth, Blaise and Pansy stop and stare at me.

"What the hell are you gawking at?" I scoff.

"We-we're just so surprised to see you.." Theo exhales.

"It's been a few days. Are you okay?" Hermione frowns.

"I'm fine Hermione." I state, grabbing my bag. "I don't want to fail the O.W.Ls so I'm going to sit them."

. . .

"Unfortunately, Professor Umbridge is unable to supervise so I will be.." Snape sighs, sitting down. "As soon as the time is up, you may leave for summer."

We start to write the paper.

I watch as everyone around me was scribbling stuff down. Hermione was already on her second page. Draco was glancing at me every few seconds.

"Eyes on your own paper, Miss. Barnes." Snape snaps.

I sigh and start to jot some random shit down.

. . .

"Papers in!" Snape taps his desk.

We walk over and place them in a pile before leaving to pack. I go to my dorm but was stopped by Draco.

"Alex? Oh my God.." He breathes out.

I furrow my eyebrows. "You alright, Draco?"

"Yeah- it- I love you!" He hugs me.

I was so confused. A moment ago he hated me.

"I was under Elizabeth' spell."

Oh...yeah, that explains a lot.

"I didn't mean anything I did, or said! Fuck." He presses a kiss on my lips.

I kiss him back. "I'm just glad you're back to normal, Draco." I smile.

He smiles, resting his forehead on mine.

"So...now what? Are you going to New York?" He intertwines his fingers with mine as we walk to my dorm.

"Yeah, I am." I nod. "No one else is coming, they might come for a few days..but.." I shrug.

"I can't come princess.." He frowns. "Mum needs me here but I'll definitely ring you everyday."

"You better." I sigh, throwing my stuff in a bag.

"Hey, about Siriu-" Draco starts.

"No. Please, don't.." I shake my head. "I have everything under control.." I smile in reassurance.

"Alex-"

"I have to go. Have a great summer." I grab his face and kiss him before slinging my bag over my shoulder and apparating back to New York.

"Hey! I'm officially on summer break." I sigh as I walk in.

"Dude, are you okay?" Grayson gasps.

"Yeah, I'm alright. Why?" I look at them.

They were all looking at me, frowning or looking down.

"Sirius.." Dad starts.

"Oh. Yeah, over it." I shrug.

"Wha-" Brooke furrows her eyebrows.

"How the fuck do you do that?!" Sam growls.

"Yeah- you were literally so upset...now you're acting like you don't care!" Nat gasps.

"A lot of the times I want what I can't have. So I think about it and see if it's possible. I want Sirius back, but I know that's never going to happen. So I get over it and move on. It's what I like to call my momentary weakness." I shrug, sitting down and placing my bag on the floor.

"That's not healthy." Pietro frowns.

"Look, bad timing? Maybe. But what the hell happened that day.." Tony leans forward.

"Those people you saw, they're called the death eaters. They're the army of Lord Voldemort. You know, the guy who wants me dead? Anyway- that prophecy, they want it. I didn't it give it to them so they started to fight for it. What happened that night was labelled the battle of the department of Mysteries. The whole wizarding world is now aware that he's back. So they're on high alert." I explain.

"Why..- I don't understand.." Wanda furrows her eyebrows.

"There was a first wizarding war. Sirius, Remus, Tonks, Molly, Arthur...they all fought in it..- it lasted Eleven years and was caused by Voldemort. He's doing it again. There's going to be another war, but it's that matter of when."
