Harry walked into his cabin after saying good night to Ryu. A sigh came out his lips when the air in the place felt lighter and clean. He could breath and not feel the dense air that Gambit's magic had left behind. He would have to remember to thank Ryu again for taking the time to help him out.

Harry walked towards his desk with the mindset to write Hermione and to let her know how he was doing, and to thank her again for all her and Ron's help. He also had a personal question he felt only she could answer.

Dear Hermione,

I thought I would write a quick note to let you know how I am doing and such.

I must admit I am doing a lot better. I tried to walk into my place yesterday and it was so dank with Gambit's magic and presents I couldn't stay there. It just hurt to much.

Ryu was kind enough to let me stay in one of his guest rooms and I now know why Ron didn't want to leave the bed. It was amazing! I woke up the next day and Ryu was clearing the magic from my home. I was so suprised that he was willing to do that. It took him better part of the day to do it. I don't think I will be able to thank him enough for all that he did for me today. Walking into my home just now was like a breath of fresh air.

Now with my personal question. How do I deal with my feelings for my gorgeous boss? Not only is he a dream to look at, but what he did for me today just pushed the the feeling to a whole new level.

I know what you told me. It has not left my head. I just don't want to be wrong. I also don't want to make a fool of myself if you are wrong. Though we all know that it is highly doubtful that you are. Ms. Brightest Witch of Her Age.

I hope to hear from you soon.

Your Best Friend
Harry

P.S. Tell Ron hi.

Quickly attaching the note to his owl, he let her go and watched her disappear into the sunset.

Harry got ready for bed and slipped beneath his covers and snuggled down for the night.

Harry woke himself up screaming. Tears were running down his face as he sat up and frantically looked around the room. Every shadow being scrutinized making sure that no one was there lurking in the dark. Finally taking in a deep breath he held it as he listened to the rest of the house. Hearing nothing he let the breath go. He was alone.

'What the hell was that?' Harry murmured to himself. His brain taking a miute to wake up and catch up. Then it all came flooding back to him. His nightmare played like a movie behind his eyes.

---------Nightmare---------

It was a beautiful day out in the Black gardens. It was his day off and he was taking time to just relax and try and forget what happened.

"Ha! Like you can get away from me. I am always going to be there." A voice whispered

Frantically Harry whipped around trying to figure out where the voice came from. Panicked he quickly started walking back to the main house.

"You can run but you can never hide from me." The voice said again

"Leave me the fuck alone!" Harry screamed at nothing.

Starting to run Harry looked Towards the main house and it looked so far away. Ever step he took to get closer, the further the home got.

"What? You think Ryu can save you?" The voice now more solid and right behind him.

Harry turned his head towards the voice. Hoping it was just his imagination. He was wrong. It was Gambit.

Gambit stood there with a smirk.

"You can't get rid of me."

"Yes I can!" Harry spit back.

Stepping closer, Gambit circled Harry and lightly started trailing his finger around Harry's chest, then shoulder, his back, to the other shoulder and again. Each time the urge to move became weaker, and finally he couldn't move at all.

"That my love is your fear holding you." Gambit laughed "Your fear of me returning. Your fear of not being able to move. Your fear that I will always haunt you."

"No." Harry whispered.

"No! Now that is a laugh. You can't resist me." Gambit chuckled.

"That wasn't me. You forced me." Harry growled.

"The famous Harry Potter able to throw the Imperius curse but not my little potion." Gambit said as he traced Harry's lips with his thumb.

"I can fight you." Harry yelled getting angry.

"You can try." Gambit whispered in his ear.

Tears streaming down his face Harry yelled.

"I will fight you!"

-----------End Nightmare--------

'I have to fight.' Harry whispered into the cold air.

Hermione's words playing through his head.

"It's not your fault. Gambit had made the choice to violate you. Nothing you did would have stopped him."

Harry just needed to remind himself of that each time the thought of Gambit took over.

"He is no longer in control. I am. If I can defeat the most powerful Dark Wizard, I can certainly defeat Gambit." Harry said loudly.

Now of only his head believed what came out of his mouth.
