Erin's POV

Snape has been avoiding me, it's three days before New years and I assume him avoiding me is a way telling me he doesn't want to do this.. Oh well, I guess. It hurts like hell, but it happens. My mum got me a late Christmas Gift, a guitar since Jim smashed mine because 'it caused too much noise'. It's stupid, but I started to play again, I went down to an abandon Hallway and looked out at the view and play while the moon shined on me whenever I couldn't sleep.

"Erin?" Harry said waving his hand in front of my face

"Sorry, what?" I asked, I still hadn't told him about me being his sister. I know I should, but I haven't had courage to...

"Are you coming up to Gryffindor common room for New years?"

"Is it okay with Professor McGonagall?" I asked

"Yeah, why?" he looked at me

"Just wondering, I didn't want to get in trouble or anything." I said

"Since when are you worried about that?" Hermione asked

"I don't know, people probably think we are sneaking in, so." I shrugged

"Wonder when Ron is going to be back." She said

"Oh?" I looked at her

"It's not like that, Rin," She slightly laughed

"Mm, sure." said Harry

I noticed Draco wasn't down here. But I felt someone staring at me, It was Snape at the head table.

I looked at him and smiled, he turned a little red and continued eating. I looked back at my friends, Kaylee wasn't feeling good so she stayed up in our room.

"Are you okay, Erin? You have been off since the day after Christmas.." Harry said

"I'm fine, my mum just... told me some stuff about my actual parents. Kind off shook me up. It's alright now."

"Alright, if you don't feel good you need to go to Madam Pomfrey, theirs some kind of sickness going around."

"I will, I'm gonna head up to take a shower. You guys wanna wait in my room?"

"Sure." Harry and Hermione both said

We walked down to my room and I took my locket and necklace off then went in the bathroom and took a peaceful shower

Harry's POV

"Her locket is beautiful." Hermione said

"Yeah." I replied

She walked over to the locket and opened it, "Aw, that must be her mum and birth mum." She smiled, "Holding her for the first time... That's so sweet..."

I walked over to look at the locket. I saw her mum and.... my mum... "What the bloody hell... Hermione, that's my mum..."

We heard a knock at the door. I walked over to open it. "Bobbie, hi." I said politely

She looked over at my shoulder at Hermione in disbelief holding the locket. "Hermione sweetie.."

"You... you've told Erin, haven't you?" Hermione said

"She actually came to me about it... after putting two and two together, and Harry, I was going to tell you... She was as well..." Bobbie said

"I..." I said and stood there in disbelief. My mum and dad had a bunch of other children... and didn't tell me or leave a note.. I wasn't mad either... just confused.

Erin had walked out and saw all three of us just standing there, and she widened her eyes when she saw Hermione with the locket..

"Son of a bitch..."

Erin's POV

When I got out of the shower, I heard my mum's voice, I walked out and saw my mum, Harry, and Hermione, holding the locker and Harry's face had a shocked look on it. I widened my eyes and said

"Son of a bitch.."

"Honey, they.."

"Really?! The look on Harry's face didn't tell me or anything."

We all went to the common room and my mum told Harry the same one she told me...

"Oh.. well this is very shocking..." he said slightly laughed

"Yeah, that's how I was when I first found out." I chuckled

"So there's three of us that look alike?"

"Yeah, I guess so." I said

"Well, I'll leave you guys to your day.." my mum said and then left

We all decided to go to Hogsmeade, go get some butter beer, just talk about all this.

We came back and it felt weird, like it wasn't natural..

'Rin. why are you back here instead of being here? You could have everything here.'

I fell to the ground and held my head, it was like a huge headache but it was caused by a voice

"Rin!" Hermione exclaimed

"Make the voice stop!" I yelled

Harry was passed out on the ground, he must've heard the voice too, but worse was done to Harry. Soon I started to drift off, trying to keep my eyes open as much as possible. But I couldn't, it was black, I couldn't see anything

Snape's POV

I saw two students on the ground and noticed it was Potter and Smith. I rushed down by the entrance.

"Granger what happened?!" I exclaimed

"Harry fell to the ground and passed out, Erin fell to the ground grabbing her head and yelled 'make the voices stop' and then passed out. I don't know what happened... Are they going to be okay?"

"I fear this would happen.. go to Madam Pomfrey and tell her to prepare two beds for Smith and Potter. Now!" I said

she nodded and ran. I carried both Potter and Ms. Smith. I hate that I have ignored her since the day after Christmas, I shouldn't have. I placed them both on the beds and went to Dumbledore. To tell him, Voldemort is trying to get them...

Hermione's POV

"Do you need any help Madam Pomfrey?" I asked

"Yes, actually. Give this potion to Ms. Smith, it'll help her wake up." she said

I took the potion and walked over to Erin, I lifted her chin up and poured the potion in her mouth. I rubbed her throat so she wouldn't choke on it. She was breathing normally again. Thank bloody hell..

A couple hours went by and I sat between Erin and Harry's bed drifting off... Someone walked in, but I didn't care enough to look, so I pretended to fall asleep, but soon I wasn't about to be pretending

It was Snape, I was leaning on Erin's bed and I opened my eyes barely and he was looking at her and he said "I'm so sorry... I should've known this would start happening to you..." He kissed her forehead, "Please be okay..." then he whispered, "I love you..."

I wanted to gasp but that would show I was awake, but then he walked out and then I actually fell asleep, hoping by time I woke up, so would they....
