Chapter 4

Florrie's POV

"Florrie! Florrie! Wake up!" I felt someone shaking me. My eyes shot open and i saw Harry, Ron, Tora, Hermione, Ginny and Clary surrounding me. They were all satnding at the end of my bed bar Harry, who was the one shaking me.

"Was i screaming again?" I sighed and Ginny nodded.

"I'm sorry guys. You can go back to sleep, i will stay awake so i don't keep you up" I muttered and got out of bed, walking downstairs.

I spotted Uncle Sirius, sitting in a chair by the fire and slipping silently on a drink. i walked in and sat down opposite with out a word.

"You were screaming again weren't you" He asked, his eyes slowly shifting to me.

"Yes, i feel bad. I'm keeping everyone awake" I exclaimed. I couldn't imagine how tired people were of me keeping them up, especially Ginny and Hermione as they shared a room with me.

"They don't care about that, they care about you getting better" He replied wisely, the light of the fire flickering on his face.

"I hate this. I hate feeling so useless, weak, vunrable. I've always been independant and delt with my problems silently and by myself but its just getting harder to do so" I complained and i almost wanted to stomp my foot like a stroppy child.

Sirius chuckled. "You know Florrie every day i see Tora being more like Regulus, smashing the plated when shes angry. And everyday i see you becoming more like me. I was like you, wanting to deal with things by myself and hating over people seeing me sad or weak. I also had the younger brother too, the one i needed to be strong for and protect but if having the expriances i have had taught me anything then its that you don't have to do it alone. Your stronger with people by your side" He explained.

I gave him a small smile. "I know the reason your screaming is a mixture of your grief for Cedric and the side effects of the cruse but you can help it. Don't think about the future or whats going to happening next week, just go day by day. Its normal to grieve for someone, its allowed. A good way of healing is to make a differnce and live life like they would of wanted to" Uncle Sirius spoke.

After listening to his words, i felt like a huge weight had been lifted off my chest. Sure i wasn't back to myself but i felt like i was one step closer.

"Come on kids, we can't be late!" Mrs Weasley hurried us as we all dragged our bags down the stairs.

"Excited to see your boyfriend?" I gave Tora a pointed look and she blushed.

"Exciteded to see his lips more like it" Clary joked and i high-fived her.

"Okay lets flu there shall we? Go in pairs as we haven't got a lot of powered" Mr Weasley lectured.

"Okay Ron and Hermione you go first" Mr Weasley instructed. They stood in the fire place and Hermione raised her hand.

"Kings Cross Station" And then they were gone.

Clary and Tora went next, followed by Fred and George with Ginny and finally Harry and i.

We all pulled our cases down to platrom 9 3/4 and ran through the passage to get to the train.

I looked down to see a black dog trotting along side Tora and myself and we exchanged a worried look. I spotted a booth not too far from where we were and Sirius trotted into it, changing into his original form.

Tora and i quickly followed and entered the room to see Sirius sitting on a chair waiting for us.

"What are you doing here? You could get caught!" Tora pointed out and Sirius shook his head.

"I had to see you off now didn't i?" He smiled and we both hugged him.

"Stay safe girls. I don't know what your 5th year has in stall but i'm sure after last year its going to be hetic" He explained.

Harry quickly came in to talk to his next so Tora and i stepped outside to give them a moment.

"Hey Tora" I began as she played with her hair.

"Yeah" She asked. I smirked and pointed over her should, making her turn around to see Neville standing there with his arms wide open for her.

She smiled widely and ran to him, jumping in his arms and hugging him tightly. I smiled at the cute couple as they hugged for a long time, clearing enjoying each others company.

"Hi Neville how was your summer?" I asked him, giving him a hug too.

"Great thanks Florrie, how was yours?" He questioned.

"Tora's was better than mine i will tell you that" I gave Tora a sly smirk, letting my eyes flicker between the two.

Harry soon came out, followed by Sirius in dog form and we boarded the train, getting a compartment with just the 4 of us as Ron and Hermione had been chosen to be prefects.

"5th year at Hogwarts, here we come"
