'No body, no crime'

☽︎•☾︎

Time seemed to stop all of a sudden.

Thinking quickly, Diana tried to recall what had happened in less than half an hour; she had been about to kiss Harry when Jack had interrupted them and converted everything into a drama. But, what had just happened? Diana had no idea what it had been, or how it could have occurred, but she was scared and couldn't even think of a logical answer.

"What the fuck?" murmured Harry after what seemed many minutes. "Are you okay?"

Diana didn't reply. She kept lingering on the sensation that she had already lived that more than once. But where? When? She didn't know, she couldn't remember.

And what would Harry think of her now that he had seen what he had seen? Would he be scared of her? Because, Diana thought, of course he wouldn't want to be near her from now on.

"Di," he repeated, approaching her, and pulling her sleeve softly. "Are you alright?"

She shook her head no, and started shaking uncontrollably. Harry hugged her tightly by the shoulders. The warmth of his skin made Diana shiver slightly before resting her head on his chest. What would they do now? Was Jack dead? Had she really killed him?

"Harry," she muttered. "What if he's... dead?"

He pulled away and reached Jack's unconscious body. The flames were not there anymore, they hadn't even left marks on the carpet, which was, if possible, even more awkward.

Placing two of his fingers on Jack's neck, Harry announced, "He's not dead. He just fainted"

She sighed in relief.

"But what are we going to do now?" she asked after three seconds. "We can't take him to the hospital wing, we can't tell anybody"

"Diana," he said calmly, "have you never heard that 'no body, no crime' thing? Well, it's the same here, although, he's not dead. We'll wait until he wakes up and then he'll leave"

"But what if he tells someone?" she said, her voice trembling with fear. "What if... What if he tells everybody that I'm a killer or something?"

"You can always Obliviate him," he suggested, standing up from the floor and reaching her side.

"Let's leave it in a memory charm," she concluded, kneeling beside Jack, and performing the charm.

Things were about to change for them, Diana was sure about that.

"Diana, you have to tell Dumbledore about this," said Hermione determinedly.
