(In the AU,there is no prophecy, no evil Voldemort nor is there any fighting. James and lily are alive and well, and Tom Riddle is the twins other godfather along with Severus)

Helena and Harry Potter were the son and daughter of famous Auror James Potter and famous writer Lily Potter,both twins had good genes when it came to their looks as well as their athletic abilities, although Helena was more on the studious side compared to her brother. The siblings grew up together sharing almost everything, family, friends and even a bed at one time, nothing could break their close bond, that was until Helena and Draco started dating round about second year. Draco Malfoy was a Slytherin whom Harry had a fierce rivalry with because of quidditch, as well as the history between his best friend Ron's family and Draco's. Although everything was behind the families now, the boys still fought on occasion, making the relationship between Helena and Draco terse, which is how she found herself in this problem now.

Year One

Harry and Helena along with their friend Ron were waiting for Professor Minerva Mcgonagall to call them in for the sorting, while Helena was talking to a new friend Hermione Granger, a muggleborn witch, Draco and Ron whom families had once had an issue began fighting. It drew Helena's attention and she angrily scolded the boys,catching the attention of Draco whom sent her a rather devilish smile. As the year weny on they exhanged a few words in the corridors and in classes much to Harry's chagrin.

Year Two

The uncanny friendship between Draco and Helena didn't stop at school, it was extended to their home lives as well, bringing much joy to their respective mothers and one father, James on the other hand hated it, not because it was The Malfoy family, but because he didn't want Helena to date or be with anyone till she was over 36. Although he was told he didn't have anything to fear, one day after Helena spent an afternoon at Malfoy Manor, she came back with a signet ring that proclaimed Draco's interest in her, much to Harrys disdain and James's heart.

Year Three

Draco was a bit different. He'd lose his temper but always apologize afterwards, Helena never faulted him for it, especially since her brother fought with him a lot. She still went to Malfoy Manor over the holidays, Narcissa and Lucius loved the youngest Potter and Narcissa frequently wrote and sent letters to her future daughter-in-law.

Year Four

It was the year of the TriWizard Tournament. Ever since Beauxbatons and Durmstrang came to school, Draco has been distant. It was the same during the holidays. He was always out when she came to visit, so she spent her time with Narcissa or Lucius if he was home. Draco still asked her to be his date to the Yule ball, but didn't as much as compliment her on how she looked. He was also fighting and berating her for every little thing. And spending a lot of time with Pansy. She didn't like the girl, but she couldn't tell him that, because she was one of his best friends. But, she didn't know if it was just her, or maybe she was imagining things, but Draco and Pansy were getting rather touchy. She hated having doubts about him but she knew there was something going on.

It was now their third year of dating, and Draco was still acting a bit funny. Both he and Helena had made prefects for their houses and she was so proud of him, but when she went to hug him, he snapped at her for being too clingy. Helena swore she saw Pansy smirk, but brushed it off as her imagination. Helena hadn't told anyone of her problems with Draco, she thought that what was her business, was her business. That night, she was walking around the halls for her prefect rounds, enjoying the silence as she contemplated what could be going on with Draco, when she heard moaning. Rolling her eyes and sighing softly, she walked down the corridor, ready to berate the couple for being out of bed after curfew, when she froze, there in front of her, was Pansy, being pushed into the wall and kissed within an inch of her life, by Draco. Helena wanted to believe it wasn't him, but that platinum blond hair gave it away. She slowly walked away, careful to not make any sound and slumped against the wall. When she knew she wouldn't be seen, she cried. Her chest heaved with breath she took, and every tear that fell from her eyes made her heart break as the scene replayed itself in her head. That was how her uncle Tom found her an hour later. The girl was curled into a ball against the hallway wall and crying in her sleep. Tom was worried, so he picked her up and took her to his private quarters and placed her on the bed. Her puffy, red eyes opened as she realised she was in her uncles room and gave him a fake smile. Tom hugged his niece "Let me into your mind darling" Helena was a natural occulemens and she had to lower her shields for him to skim through her memories. When he was done, Tom was furious. "Uncle tom", her voice snapped him out of his rage, "could you give this to him tomorrow" she handed the Malfoy ring to Tom and lay down on the bed, the normally stoic and cool man, letting his anger run wild.

That morning, Helena sat with her brother and the others at the Gryffindor table. Nobody asked her much questions and she kept to Harry's side as much as she could, keeping silent. That was until Draco's outraged cry came from the Slytherin table. When Helena picked her head up from Harry's shoulder, she saw her uncle Tom handing the Signet ring back to him. He furiously took it, and scanned the tables for his girlfriend, finding her with her brother, Draco stalked to the Gryffindor table, his temper boiling over. "And why the hell are you giving me this back?" He screamed at her. Helena's eyes were downcast as she softly spoke "I-I want u-us to b-b-break up" she stammered. The hall gasped, Draco and Helena were the cutest couple and now they were breaking up? Draco's forehead vein pulsed as he looked at the mousy girl, "and who the fuck gave you that right Helena! You don't get to dictate whats going on in this relationship! Sometimes I wonder how stupid you are I mean who would want to break up with me?! You should be lucky I even considered your ugly-" but before he could finish, a resounding slapping noise was echoing throughout the hall. Draco held his cheek as he looked at Helena's face. Everyone in the hall looking wide eyed at the normally reserved girl, and all the Gryffindors silently questioning whether Draco wanted a death wish or not, many knowing how legendary her temper is. "DRACONIUS LUCIUS MALFOY DON'T YOU BLOODY DARE FINISH THAT FUCKING SENTENCE! Helena screamed. Draco just stared at his girlfriend, correction ex-girlfriend. He'd never seen her like this, her calm and sparkling green eyes, now tinged red, her face contorted into hate. "I should be lucky you considered me? What a load of bloody garbage! If it wasn't for me in first year, my brother would have kicked your prideful arse from here to Durmstrang! I never wanted you to pay me any attention but you did, so don't say I should be lucky, you should be fucking lucky I have put up with your bullshit since 3rd year! I don't know what came over you, or what changed, but you weren't the boy I fell in love with. I let you belittle me for too long, but I never once complained, why? Because when you love someone you look past the faults at the good. But now you've pushed me to the limit! I never objected to you spending time with that pug-faced bitch!" She screamed, pointing a finger at Pansy, both her and Draco went to open their mouths when Helena pulled out her wand and pointed her hand at Pansy. "You both know how good I am at hexes and wandless magic, so say something please" she threatened. Both kept quiet as she continued, "Even though I doubted that something was going on, I kept quiet, thinking I should trust you more. But what the FUCK did I get out of that path?! Finding my boyfriend, the boy I've loved since 1st year, the boy I've let push me around, the one I've made excuses for, sticking his fucking tongue down that bitches throat! And don't give me the bullshit she came onto you, I saw you pushing her against the wall. That's my limit Malfoy. Please just get the fuck away from and don't bother about me any more, not like you've been doing that recently" Helena said, taking her bag and heading out of the hall, "oh and too everyone, I'm sorry for way I acted and if I acted inaccordingly please forgive me" she said quietly as she walked out of the hall.
