Y/N POV

Today was the day everyone was going to Hogsmeade , but Harry and I were not going

to go. It was fine by me, because I wanted to stay with Harry, and make sure he's fine. Even

though he can protect himself. We waved goodbye to Ron and Hermione, and went to the

Gryffindor Common Room. Harry and I sat on the couch beside each other.


"Do you want to play chess." I asked


"I have a better idea." He said with enthusiasm. He stood up and reached out his hand.

I grabbed it, and he helped me up. He took out his invisibility cloak from behind his back.


"We are going to Hogsmeade, and nobody will notice we are gone." He said.


"Harry, are you sure?" I questioned. He nodded. He whipped his invisibility behind and

over his head and back. I stood beside him and bent down, so both of us could fit in it. He smiled

and we quietly exited the room. We went outside and started speeding up. Suddenly we felt to

arms yanking us back. It was Fred and George. They took us inside a dark room with a staircase.

They took our invisibility cloth off, and laughed at us.


"Where are you two love birds off to?" They asked. I rolled my eyes.


"It's none of your business." Harry said. We tried to get up but they pushed us down.

They took out a blank piece of parchment and said,


"This is a Marauders Map. It tells all the secret passages in Hogwarts that lead to

Hogsmeade. They said. Harry and I stared in curiosity. "Look. I solemnly swear I'm up to no

good." When they said that, The blank parchment turned into a map. "It shows you every single

person, where they are, and where they are going."


"Where did you find it?" I asked.


"Filch's office, in our first year. Been using it ever since. Now, we want to give it to you

Harry, its quite useful. Remember, to open it, say, I solemnly swear that I am up to no good.

To close it, say Mischief Managed." They handed the parchment to Harry and ran off. We

examined it for a few minutes and found a passage. Harry and I followed it and reached

Honeydukes in Hogsmeade. We exited the door and started looking for Ron and Hermione.

We were still in our invisibility cloak. After searching for so long, we spotted them. They were

looking at the shrieking shack. Suddenly, we saw Malfoy and his gang walking up to him. I tried

to go after him, but Harry held me.


"Thinking of your dream home?" Malfoy smirked. Hermione walked up to him and said

something that Harry and I couldn't hear. "Don't you dare talk to me, you filthy mudblood."

Malfoy said. I immediately got angry and threw the invisibility cloak off myself. Harry tried to

grab my arm but missed. I walked to Malfoy and shouted,


"SHUT UP MALFOY!" He turned to look at me and said,


"Oh look, filthy bloodtraitor is back." Immediately after he said that, a snowball hit him

in the face. I turned around to look and no one was there. I realized it was probably Harry.

Malfoy and his gang were getting hit by snowballs, and getting dragged closer to the shrieking

shack. I still couldn't see Harry, but I knew he stopped because Malfoy and his gang, got up and

ran away. Hermione and I were laughing. Harry started pulling Hermione's and my hair slightly,

and was pulling Ron's hat.


"Harry." Hermione said with a laugh. Harry took off his invisibility cloak and started

laughing with us. Together all of us walked to Honeydukes to buy some candy.


Harry's POV

We were almost at Honeydukes until we heard Madam Rosmerta talking about her pub,


with Cornelius Fudge, the Minister of Magic.


"Settle down." Fudge said.


"How can I settle down when there are dementors getting in my pub every hour." She

spat. Cornelius Fudge whispered something in her ear. "Harry Potter!" She shouted. Fudge

quieted her down, and took her inside the pub, followed by Professor McGonagall. Why would

she say my name? I was still under my invisibility cloak so I went inside quietly, trying not to

make, Ron , Hermione, or Y/N notice. I went inside and they talked about Sirius Black, and how

he betrayed my parents, and sold them to Voldemort. I went out after a while, and sat on a

bench alone to cry. I didn't notice Y/N walking up to me, and lifting the cloak.


"Harry, what happened?" She questioned.


"HE WAS A FRIEND! THEY TRUSTED HIM, AND HE BETRAYED THEM! I'LL BE READY, WHEN

HE COMES! I'LL FIGHT HIM, AND KILL HIM!" I shouted. Y/N came closer to me and hugged me.

I rested my head on her shoulder, and hugged back. Ron and Hermione walked to me and

hugged me as well. I was glad to have a friends and someone who is more than a friend, to help

me through hard times.
