"H-Harry?" Alesso stuttered unsurely.

"What are you doing here?" Harry asked suspicious and accusing towards her.

"I came to see you. I miss you and after you fell down I got so upset, I just had to come and see you, " she muttered tearfully. It was then that Harry had realised that Alesso had started crying. Little did he know, that they were actually fake tears. Alesso needed to pull out any of her girlish ways in order for him to completely forget about her being invisible.

Harry only gave up for a second and told her to come and snuggle with him, gesturing to the side of the bed where his good arm was. She pretended to be overcome by sobs as he let her snuggle into his body whilst he softly patted her hair.

Slowly Alesso pretended to lessen her sobs and Alesso fell asleep in Harrys safe arms. As she was drifting of, she thought she heard, him say three little words, but she couldn't be sure. She just felt so tired.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The next day Alesso woke to find herself in the hospital wing on a white bed. Confused momentarily, she glanced to her left to make sense of her surroundings when she caught a glimpse of dark and untidy black hair. It was Harry. She stared at him for a moment, wanting to tell him the truth about her. She felt that the boy didn't deserve everything that was happening to him or that was going to happen to him in the next few years in the Wizarding World.

However, Alesso was smart for her meagre age of twelve and knew that they both had destinies to fulfil, even if they sometimes could intertwine.

With that thought, Alesso left the hospital wing to find an interesting flyer in the noticeboard which had all the Slytherin's gasping and gigging excitedly. Alesso would have thought this was strange behaviour, though she was too interested in the actual flyer itself.

It explained how there would be a new duelling club to help students become prepared to arm themselves against attacks. Alesso was excited, the only thing that truly worried her was how much she would have to hold back with her powers. however, she wondered if she truly could hold back because when it comes to getting hurt, of course she is going to use her powers to stump her opponent and win.

With her thoughts in mind, she strolled in search of Ron, Harry and Hermione. She stopped quite suddenly in the middle of the hallway, getting cursed and yelled at for her abrupt stop. Sighing, she stared at the wall, tapping her foot and holding her chin, asking herself, where she thought they might be hiding. Somewhere where no one would think of.

She ran up to the seventh floor, determined she would find them in the Room of Requirement. When she didn't, she exited dejectedly, really upset that her first guess wasn't right. It usually was.

Giving up with her shoulders drooping she resented herself enough to go and eat in the Great Hall. I mean what's better to help drown in the sorrows of her life? FOOD.

On the way there, she thought she heard weird amounts of sound coming from the Second floor bathroom. She usually didn't come this way, but she was upset and short-cut seemed to be a great solution instead of walking down several flights of revolving stairs.

She pressed her ear to the door and heard the distinct voices of Harry, Ron and Hermione. She heard:

"Wed've come to meet you, but we decided to get started on the Polyjuice potion," Ron was talking to Harry. "We've decided this is the safest place to hide it, especially from Malfoy and maybe even Alesso," Ron concluded his explanation.

Boy, if Alesso hadn't of been so scared of the implications of the trio turning against her, she would have been furious and burst in there to give them a piece of her mind.
