HARRY'S POV
It was hot, too hot. I looked around for the source of the heat, and my eyes found a giant, black, steaming cauldron in front of me. I tried to step away from it but realized I couldn't move. I was in a graveyard, I think. The cauldron bubbled on as my scar began to pound, resulting in my screams.
"The Dark Lord- shall rise- again-" I heard over my screams. I tried to see the man who the familiar voice belonged too, but the steam from the caldron had turned into a white fog, like the white fog that clouded my vision whenever the Dementors were around.
"Harry!"
"Harry!" The voice said again and I opened my eyes to find Neville hovering above me.
"You alright, Harry?" He still had his dress robes on, and his shoes strung around his neck.
"I just got in... me!" He exclaimed, not waiting for my response to his previous question. As Neville hummed the waltz to himself, I took deep breaths to calm myself down. Once I was calm, and Neville had stopped humming, I slowly drifted back to sleep.

Winter break was boring; I did nothing, couldn't find Hailey anywhere, and was sad about Cho. I spent most of it with Ginny, talking and catching up. I also spent it worrying about Ron and Hermione. They were still avoiding each other and were very mad. I had my own problems though and decided to deal with them the last day of break.
"Hagrid?" I yelled, knocking on his door.
"Good-mornin', 'arry!" He answered, pulling his large door open.
"Hi, Hagrid!" I smiled up at him.
"What brings you here?" He returned my smile and motioned for me to sit, so I did.
"Do you remember what you told me when Hailey first got here? That we could tell her when I gained her trust?" I started, Hagrid nodded.
"Well, I did. She told me she trusts me and I'm her best friend at Hogwarts! We can tell her!" I smiled, getting excited but Hagrid's smile disappeared.
"I don't think that's a good idea, Harry." He replied, looking down.
"What? Why not?!" I snapped back, getting a little mad.
"With da tournament an' everything', Dumbledore an' I have agreed it's best if we wait until afta da tournament ter be ova before tellin' 'er," Hagrid replied, crushing my spirits.
"Hagrid-"
"Harry ya have ter remember this is life-changin' news. 'er whole life, everythin' she knows will be turned upside-down. It's too much ter handle with da tournament, she'll end up in da infirmary!" He explained and I realized it would be very hard for her, she is going through a lot, and not just with the tournament.
"Alright... I guess I can wait a little longer." I said, earning a smile from Hagrid.
"Don't worry, you'll get yer sister soon enough." Hagrid said, ruffling my hair. "Now go ter the buffet an' eat, you 'ave a task ter complete soon." I gave him a hug before leaving and making my way back to the Great Hall, and doing as suggested. I really didn't mind, seeing as Cho was also there with her friends.

"So," Hermione started. Her, Ron and I were all sitting alone in the common room. We had just finished dinner and were now talking as Hermione did homework. Where she got it from I didn't know, I had no homework. "I haven't seen Hailey all break. I thought at first she was just avoiding you, Harry, because of your fight, but I haven't seen her at all. She's never in the library, or the Great Hall, so she's either hiding in her tower or in Hogsmeade." Hermione finished. It made me feel a little better that she was hiding from everyone, and not just me.
