Here With Me

Here With Me

*I didn't hear you leave, *

*I wonder how am I still here,*

Harry, Ron and Hermione were once again out on another late night excursion to retrieve Harry's invisibility cloak from Snape's classroom. Creeping along silently, they narrowly avoided Mrs. Norris by slinking into an unused classroom. Realizing that Filch was coming their way, Harry bravely decided to take a risk and run out in front of him in hope of giving Ron and Hermione a chance to get back to the common room. Harry ran out of the classroom and took off down the hall with Filch in hot pursuit as Ron and Hermione ran back to the common room. Harry returned a few hours later, exhausted and winded, but fine other wise. Although, it is never said, a silent thank-you is understood as he gives them a smile and heads up to his dorm.

*I don't want to move a thing,*

*It might change my memory*

Tucked away in a corner of a red trunk, under countless quills, books and clothes lay a little black box. Although it seemed to be carelessly lying about the parchment and socks, it was actually very important to its owner.

*Oh I am what I am,*

*I'll do what I want,*

Something was going to happen soon. Minerva McGonagall sat at the head table, staring at James Potter and his crew. They kept turning around and staring at the Slytherin table and then turning back around. Just as she was about to get up and ask them what was going on, a huge explosion came from the Slytherin table. Looking over, she saw Severus Snape covered completely in chicken feathers. Looking back at the Gryffindor table, she saw James, Sirius, Remus and Peter trying to sneak away while all of the teachers were still looking at Severus. She followed them out into the hall where she gave them each four detentions. Minerva couldn't help but smile.

*But I can't hide*

Lily and James smiled as he slipped a ring on to her finger. She'd been waiting for this day for years, imagining every different way that it could happen, the traditional way on one knee after some fancy dinner, or some fancy creative way like writing 'Will you marry me?' in the clouds with his broom. But, in the end, James had done it perfectly and Lily just couldn't imagine anything better than being with James at that moment right then and there.

*I won't go, I won't sleep,*

Ron reached into his red trunk, searching desperately for something. He pulled out his quills, books, even all of his clothes. He emptied the whole trunk, but he couldn't find what he was looking for. Slowing down for one second, he realized that he had been throwing clothes and books out Harry's trunk. Sheepishly looking around at the mess he had just caused, he slowly started to back away towards the door until he reached it, and then he took off down towards the common room.

*I can't breathe, until you're resting here with me*

Remus Lupin walked outside. It was just the day after the full moon, and he'd never felt worse even though he'd taken the Wolfsbane the night before. Usually the potion helped his transformations at least a little, but the night before he was too worried and stressed for the potion to have its full effect. For thirteen long years, he had tried to find one single shred of evidence that Sirius was innocent, but when Sirius had attacked the Fat Lady the week previous, he just couldn't take it. For the first time since before Hogwarts, Remus felt truly lonely.

*I won't leave, I can't hide*

James flew high above all of the stands, searching for the snitch. Suddenly, he went into a sudden dive towards the Ravenclaw stands. Dozens of screams, mainly from girls, erupted from the stands as he and the Hufflepuff seeker hurtled towards the stands. At the last second, the Hufflepuff seeker pulled out of the dive, but James kept on going. He slammed into the stands as more gasps erupted from the crowd. All eyes were on him as he slowly stood up, holding the snitch. All of the Ravenclaws and Gryffindors cheered as he smiled and pulled Lily into a hug and then a kiss. Dumbledore could only smile as he watched the young couple.

*I cannot be, until you're resting here with me*

Everything was black. The only color came from the single red rose from the front of the room. Red and black. Sad, that on such a happy day, two of the best wizards in the world had to be taken away.

*I don't want to call my friends*

Some scared first year was running down the hall wildly shouting that the troll was in the girl's bathroom. Minerva tried to slow him down, but running. She sprinted as fast as she could to the bathroom, where she found an unconscious troll on the ground and three first years standing by it. Hermione gave some excuse, but knowing Potter, she was sure that it was a lie. They cleared everyone out and as she watched Potter, Weasley and Granger walk back to the tower, she couldn't help but smile.

*They might wake me from this dream*

Harry suddenly spotted the snitch and dove. All eyes were on him as he and Cho Chang dove towards the Slytherin stands. Both of them held steady and some girl screamed for them to watch out. Cho pulled out of the dive at the last second as Harry collided full force into the stands. Everyone steered clear of him as he woozily stood up, clutching the snitch in his right hand. He raised it up into the air for a second until he passed out. Dumbledore smiled.

*And I can't leave this bed,* *Risk forgetting all that's been*

"Hermione, will you marry me?" was said as a little black box was pulled form underneath a cloak.

*Oh I am what I am,* *I'll do what I want *

Lily Potter cuddled baby Harry as she sang a song. It wasn't anything special, just the song that her father would sing to her late at night...hush little baby...don't say a word...momma's going to buy you a mocking bird...

*But I can't hide*

"Yes Ron, I'll marry you."

*I won't go, I won't sleep* *I can't breathe until you're resting here with me*

Curious indeed how these things happen. The wand chooses the wizard, remember...I think we must expect great things form you, Mr. Potter...After all , He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named did great things - terrible, yes but great.

*I won't leave, I can't hide, *

An uncertain little eleven year old walked out of Ollivanders with a giant named Hagrid. Some where in the distance he heard a song... Hush little babies...don't say a word...

*I cannot be, until you're resting here with me.*

A/N: OK, so it wasn't very romantic, but still, I tried! Well thanks for reading and please leave a review. I LOVE THIS SONG! Anyways, I know that it was kind of short, but I have a short attention span! Thanks!
