A watery witch of his heart (Harry Potter)

End of a first year

Waking up in the hospital wing besides Harry around me were gifts and notes a plenty when my grandfather Dumbledore approaches us.

"Hello grandfather."

"Good afternoon, Harry. Darling. Ah. Tokens from your admirers?"

"Admirers?" We asked

"What happened down in the dungeons between you, my granddaughter and Professor Quirrell is a complete secret. So, naturally, the whole school knows." We both smile.

"Ah, I see your friend Ronald has saved you the trouble of opening your Chocolate Frogs."

"Ron was here? Is he all right?"

"What about Hermione?" I asked concerned

"Fine. They're both just fine."

"But what happened to the Stone?" I wonder too.

"Relax, dear boy. The Stone has been destroyed. My friend Nicholas and I had a little chat and agreed it was best all around."

"But then, Flamel, he'll die, won't he?" I asked concerned sorrowful my grandfather Dumbledore sits on my bed.

"He has enough Elixir to set his affairs in order. But yes, he will die." My heart ache knowing that

"How is it i got the Stone, sir? One minute I was staring in the mirror, and the next..."

"Ah. You see, only a person who wanted to find the Stone, find it, but not use it, would be able to get it. That is one of my more brilliant ideas. And between you Aurora and me that is saying something."

"Does that mean, with the Stone gone, that is, that Voldemort can never come back?"

"Ah, I'm afraid there are ways in which he can return. Harry, do you know why Professor Quirrell couldn't bear to have you or Aurora touch him?" Harry and I shakes our heads

"It was because of your mothers. She sacrificed herself for you. And that kind of act leaves a mark. No, no, this kind of mark cannot be seen. It lives in your very skin." I see Harry touches his scar.

"What is it?"

"Love, Harry. Love. As for you Aurora our blood can hurt those who mean harms to us." He goes and pats Harry's head gently then walks over and kissed mine

"Ah. Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans. I was most unfortunate in my youth to come across a vomit-flavoured one. And since then, I'm afraid I've lost my liking for them. But I think I could be safe with a nice toffee." takes brown bean and eats it.

"Mm. Alas! Earwax." I giggled walking out the hospital wing Harry with his arm still bandaged enters a corridor where up on a stairwell balcony

"Well potter it seem our friendship was meant for a reason."

"I couldn't be more gladder to have meet you serenity."

"You call Aurora if you want." We smiled

Hermione and Ron are talking. They stop when they see Harry and I they lean over the railing.

"All right there, Ron?"

"All right. You two?"

"We're well All right. Hermione?" I asked

"Never better." We see the Great Hall full of students eating and talking with each other. There are green and silver banners with the Slytherin symbol above their heads, already indicating the house with the most points. Dumbledore gives a slight nod to Professor McGonagall, who then clinks her spoon to her glass to ask attention from the students. The crowd falls silent. Dumbledore stands up and speaks with his magically magnified voice. I sat in between Ron and George

"Another year gone. And now, as I understand it, the house cup needs awarding. And the points stand thus: In fourth place, Gryffindor with 312 points." I gave a sad smile but was upset about our place

"Third place, Hufflepuff with 352 points. In second place, Ravenclaw with 426 points. And in first place, with 472 points, Slytherin house." Of course I put a frown upset

"Oh joy." I said sarcastically quite but mad

"Yes, yes, well done, Slytherin. Well done, Slytherin. However, recent events must be taken into account. And I have a few last-minute points to award." I was confused

"To Miss Hermione Granger and Serenity Rivers for the cool use of intellect while others were in grave peril, 50 points each." Hermione and I held hands smiling our friendship bracelets latch

"Good job."

"Second, to Mr. Ronald Weasley, for the best played game of chess that Hogwarts has seen these many years, 50 points." Ron looks even more surprised than Hermione did and the Gryffindor table is applauding even louder.

"And third, to Mr. Harry Potter and again Serenity Rivers, for pure nerves and outstanding courageous, I award Gryffindor house 60 points each." Harry and I proud, smiling

"We're tad higher than Slytherin!"

"And finally, it takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to your enemies, but a great deal more to stand up to your friends. I award 10 points to Neville Longbottom." Neville can't believe what he just heard and the Gryffindors that heard Hermione's whisper are cheering the loudest.

"Assuming that my calculations are correct, I believe that a change of decoration is in order." He claps and motions his hands towards the Slytherin banners, where they flap heavily, until the banners have changed completely to red and gold with the Gryffindor symbol

"Gryffindor wins the House Cup."

"Yes!" I shout happily clapping standing up. The Great Hall explodes with applause, not only from the Gryffindors, but also from the Ravenclaws and the Hufflepuffs because they are glad that for the first time in seven years, someone other than Slytherin has won the House Cup. Hagrid can't help himself to also cheer, and all students except the Slytherins throw their hats in the air, while Malfoy angrily throws his on the table in defeat. The Gryffindors around i and Harry who all congratulating us, I and Harry smile to Hagrid, who smiles at us back George picked me up hugging me making me blush madly. I had my things all taken care off near by the shore

"Well this is goodbye friends until next year." I hugged Harry, Hermione, Ron and the twins mostly George

"Have a safe swim."

"Be safe."

"Take care." I said jumping in turning into my mermaid self then pop up and waved one last goodbye and swam off.
