"Morning Vera!" I was woken by Hagrid and the sizzling of bacon. "Goodnight sleep?"

"Y-yeah-" I cut myself as I looked down and see that I wasn't in my uniform was in an oversized blue shirt and all the scratches were all gone, but my arm was broken.

"Oh yeah, I gave you some of my clothes since your clothes were, want some bacon?" Hagrid said,

"No thanks," I said still overwhelmed at the event that happened yesterday.

"More for me then!" Hagrid said bubbly, then looking at his window, "I'm going to out for a bit, keep an eye on the bacon please."

"O-okay..." I say quietly as he walked out the door, soon after Harry walked in then smiled at me.

"Vera," He sighed happily then hugged me tightly I hugged back.

"Thank Merlin you okay,"

"Ditto," I say smiling.

"Vera," Harry gulped nervously "Why didn't you tell me you were a mermaid?" That was the one question from Harry I feared, but he deserves nothing but the truth.

"I-I was scared Harry " I confessed, "I didn't know you would accept me as your friend ever since it happened, and when you were being by those merpeople, I knew it was it for me and the only way I could say goodbye to you was to-"

"Kiss me," Harry finished the sentence "I just wish that goodbye was longer," Harry confesses leaving me speechless at his response.

"I'm sorry I didn't mean- "

"Shut up the idiot," I say before smashing my lips against his. To my surprise, he did the same. The kiss seemed to last forever until I pulled away smiling putting my nose against Harry's.

"I love you, Vera," My heart fluttered at those words when he said that. Before I could reply Hagrid came in.

"Vera, Hermione, and Ron are here, we all going for a walk," Hagrid says excitedly, I nod at him then look at Harry.

"Come on, better than lying here all day!" I say pulling him up and running to Hermione and Ron.

"So I remember, I remember when I first met you all. Biggest bunch of misfits I've ever set eyes on. Always reminded me of myself a little. And here we all are, four years later." Hagrid says cheerfully as we walked in the forest, I was walking with Harry as the others were slightly behind us.

"Who said you all aren't misfits?" I say to Harry.

"You don't for sure," Harry chuckles but soon stopped when we stop and see the dead corpse of Mr. Crouch.

"Mr Crouch?"
