The Girl who lived

Chapter 15

Hermione and I are looking for Harry but no sign of him. "Hey, have you seen Harry?" We ask some first years but no one has seen him. "Where could he be?" I ask Hermione not that she knows the answer to it. "He probably got himself in trouble again," I say. Every time I can't find him, he's in trouble. "He's probably fine," Hermine comforts me. "I don't know Hermione. You know what he's like. It's almost that time of  the year again for him to almost die." I say knowing that my brother could get killed at any time by anyone. "That's not true," Hermione once again tries to comfort me. "It mostly happens after Christmas." She says silently but it is still loud enough for me to hear. She does have a point. It is mainly at the end of the year. But if he doesn't show up in the next hour I am going to kill him myself. My thoughts stopped when my brother and Ron walked by. "Where have you been?" I ask my brother. "We've been looking all over for you for the last 2 hours." Before I could say anything else my brother interrupted me. "Relax. We've probably just missed each other. Why were you looking for me?" He says trying to calm me down. "Neville said he found something. For the DA." Hermione says. "Well, let's go then," Ron says before walking towards the common room where Neivle is waiting for us.

So Neville found the Room of Requirement, who would've thought?  "You've done it, Neville. You found the Room of Requirement." Hermione speaks. "The What?" Ron asks, not knowing what his friend meant. "It's also known as the come-and-go room?" I try to clarify but he, and the others besides Hermione, still seem confused. "The Room of Requirement only appears has real need of it, and is always equipped for the seeker's need," I explain. "So, say you really needed the toilet..." Ron tries to understand. "Charming Ronald," Hermione says. "But yes, that is the general idea." She answers her friend. "It's brilliant." My brother says all of a sudden. "It's like Hogwarts wants us to fight back." He says looking into the room. "We just have to make sure no one sees us coming in here every practice," I say looking at George who is standing beside me. "I think we could come up with some distractions, can't we Fred?" George grins at his brother. "I think we can, George." He smirks back. "I say we start as soon as possible," Hermione says, and everyone agrees. "Tomorrow after dinner. Spread the word, but make sure only the people on the list know." Harry tells everyone and we all nod before leaving the room. "Bella, can we talk?" Harry asks as we were leaving the Room of Requirement. "Yhea, sure," I answer before we both make our way to my room.

"What's up?" I ask him, not knowing what he wants to talk about. "I just wanted to check in on you." He answers. "So how have you been?" My brother asks since I didn't reply. "I'm fine, Harry. I'm a big girl, you don't have to worry about me." I answer his question. "I'm your big brother, I will always worry about you." He argues. "Especially when I see that something's bothering you." He adds, making me look down since I knew what he was talking about. "Come on, Bell. We used to say everything to each other. I thought we still were." He waits for my answer. "I just had a fight with Fred, that's all." I lie. Well technically we did fight but it isn't completely the truth. "Yhea, I've heard something about that. You're not on speaking terms at the moment, right?" He asks me and I nod in response. "I'm sorry, Bell. But I'm sure that whatever it is you're fighting about will be over soon. You two are best friends, you'll find a way to make it through." He says putting his arm around me. "Thanks, Harry. I hope we do." I say leaning my head on his shoulder as he places a small kiss on top of it. "You're my favourite brother," I say quietly. "I'm your only brother." Harry chuckles. "And you're the only one I need," I say, closing my eyes. "I love you, Bella," Harry says before placing another kiss on my head. "I love you too, Harry,"
