Chapter 41 - Live... or Die?

Alice POV

"Eth, I'll miss you so much!" I murmured in to Ethan's shoulder.

"Little al I'll miss you too."

"Why did the holidays have to come soo quick?"

"They always do. You will come over one day won't you?"

"Of course I will! Did you think I'd ever forget you!"

"No Ali. Never."

We were sitting up the front of the train in a deserted compartment.

It was cold so we were huddled together to keep warm.

I looked in to Ethan's face. It was as clear as ever, no imperfections.

I felt his jagged spiky hair. I could smell his hair gel.

Ethan was perfect. Just perfect.

"I'll owl you your present on Christmas Eve ali," Ethan's hand run down my hair.

"Me too Ethan." I pronounced his name as if it was a chocolate.

"Alice don't worry. The holidays won't be that long. We'll soon be back."

"But everything was just perfect!"

"It still will be when the holidays are over."

"They might not be." I turned away from Ethan.

"This is about what Snape said to you ages ago. Isn't it?"

I had filled Ethan in on everything that had happened before he came.

"Well... sort of."

"What is it then Ali. You can trust me."

"I'm scared for you Ethan! I live my life in fear! Who knows who could be round the next corner waiting to murder me!"

"Alice, no one will murder you."

"We all know Voldemort wants me dead! Any way it's not me I'm worried about."

"Who then?"

I sighed and slumped in to a seat, "My friends. Hermione, Ron, Ginny... and you Ethan. I don't want anyone to suffer because of me."

"Alice if you had been killed as a baby the world wouldn't be this way the now. I and the rest of your friends would probably be dead right now. Voldemort would have won the war. He would have taken over."

"But Eth..."

"No buts Ali. It's all going to be ok."

"I trust you Ethan."

"Good Ali. It will all be fine."

I got off my seat and wandered over to the window.

"ETHAN! We're near the station. LOOK!"

Ethan came over to me and grabbed my shoulders.

"Nearly home Ali. Nearly home."

The trains whistle went off, "CHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CHOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
