It had been a week since I had been at home with my family and now, Luna and I were back at Hogwarts.

"Bye Luna" I said hugging her as I walked into The Gryffindor common room. She waved good bye and walked up the stairs to the Ravenclaw common room.

I saw Liv and Ginny in the corner of my eye and walked towards them.

"Hi Guys!" I said excitedly. I walked over and sat down beside Liv. I hugged Ginny and then Liv.

"What did I miss?" I asked, not really expecting an answer.

"She and George broke up" Ginny whispered to me.

"What!" I exclaimed out loud.

"Um long story" She said awkwardly as her had rubbed Liv's back.

"Jade" Jake said from across the room. "Jake" I said waving at him.

"I'll be right back?" I said reassuringly. I walked over to Jake and hugged him.

"So did you hear?" Jake said. "About Liv" He said bulging his eyes and smiling.

"What why are you smiling?" I asked curiously. "What happened"

"She broke up with George" He responded smiling.

"why are you smiling?" I asked still very confused.

"She broke up with George because she" He said really excitedly. "She's bisexual"

"What's that?" I asked confused.

"She likes girls" Jake responded really excited. "And boys"

"Oh Really?" I said smiling. I went back to Liv and hugged her.

"I heard" I said smiling. "I'm so happy for you" I said hugging her.

"Thank you" Liv said smiling. "That means a lot to me" She said happily.

We sat on the common room couch for a while and Ginny and Liv told me how Liv broke up with George.

"Did he really take it that hard?" I said surprised.

"Oh he took it really weirdly actually" Ginny said. "He talked about how girls would do it and other really weird questions" She said disgusted.

We laughed and laughed!

"Well, I want to enjoy being single" I said awkwardly. "Time to get to know myself better" I said.

"We need time" Liv said reassuringly. "Time to be ourselves again"

Oh thank god. A weight had been lifted of my shoulders.

I got my trunk from where I left it, beside the common room couch, and brought it to my dorm. Liv and Ginny had already started unpacking and were way ahead of me.

I unpacked my bags, slipped my trunk under my bed and changed into my uniform and robe. I put my wand in my wand pocket and walked out our dorm towards the Great hall for dinner.

Enzo was doing well and got out of the hospital 2 days ago. Blaise had written me an owl to inform me about Enzo's health. They had allowed him to go back to school but someone would help him write.

I walked into the Great hall and walked towards the part of the table where Liv, Ginny and Jake were sitting at.

"This seat taken?" I asked.

"yeah" Jake said. "by you dummy" He said smirking. I smiled and sat down.

"I missed you guys" I said admiring my friends and everything around me.

"What happened to sarcastic jade?" Ginny asked as she took a sausage from the table.

"I'm trying to be positive" I said smiling.

"Wow" Jake said. "being positive is when you actually mean it"

"I do!" I pleaded.

"yes" Liv said high-pitched.

"I give up ugh" I said frowning. "Besides smiling is painful"

"What?" Ginny said grinning.

"Forget it" I said eating my chicken. I looked around the great hall and locked eyes with Enzo.

I smiled and waved. We were friends.. It was ok. He waved back with his left arm since he couldn't with his other, and got back to eating. I looked over to who was sitting beside him. Daphne. She gave me a nasty look.

Seeing Enzo made me feel really bad. That day in the hospital was very overwhelming but we're friends. That is great. I think?

I ate dinner pretty fast. I said good night to Liv, Ginny and Jake and proceeded to walk out of the great hall. I just wanted to shower and read tonight.

I stepped into my room with my hair soaking wet and in comfy silk pajamas. I ran to my bed and wrapped a blanket around me. It was still pretty chilly.

My door swung open and Enzo walked in. He had a white cast on his right arm and he was wearing his white shirt and pajamas.

"Uh hey?" I asked. "What are you doing here?"

"I thought maybe you'd like to have a drink with me at the Astronomy tower" He responded as he tilted his head admiring me. "Just like old times"

"Um sure give me a second" I got up from my bed with the blanket still wrapped around me. I put my slippers on and walked out the dorm with Enzo. I clutched his arm carefully. He struggled to hold the beers so I held them instead.

"What's the occasion?" I asked.

"Well we haven't spent time in a while" Enzo said. "I just wanted to see my lov- my friend again"

"How nice" I said. He was about to say girlfriend. "This is giving me Déjà vu"

"It does" Enzo said chuckling. We walked up the stairs and sat down.

"So how your break?" Enzo asked.

"Well it was great" I said sipping on the beer Enzo passed me. "Other than the fact you were in the hospital, great" I said smiling.

It was beautiful. The stars were bright and the view was spectacular.

"Its pretty chilly" Enzo said shivering. I swung my arm around him and wrapped him in my blanket as well. "You don't have to" he said.

"If I don't you'll freeze" I said. It was kind-of weird because we were literally sticking to each other.

"Drinking beer makes it better" I said putting my head onto Enzo's shoulder.

"Can we just stay like this for a while?" Enzo asked. I nodded and put my head back onto his shoulder. It was nice like this.

We sat there quietly for 10 minutes. We sat there, quietly admiring the sky.

"You know for a while there I forgot we weren't you know" I said putting my head back up.

"Me to" He said. He held my hand and I turned my head to him. He leaned in. I know what he was about to do. I turned my head so he couldn't kiss me.

"Friends" I said. "Just friends" He was still holding my hand.

I just wanted to tell him I love him and I care for him so much but I couldn't. I was just scared to admit my feelings. I was scared that what happened last time between me and Fred or between Enzo and Daphne will happen again.

"Good night" I said getting up still not letting go of Enzo's hand.

"Night" He said. He let go of my hand watched me walk away.

I could tell in the way he looks at me that he knows that I really do love him.
