Chapter 5

Not such sweet dreams

Harry was back in the Ministry of Magic; he was pulling Neville up a set of stairs. He looked up to see Sirius battling and then getting hit by a spell and he started to fall.

Everything started happening in slow motion, Harry ran to save Sirius but something stopped him he couldn't move anywhere, then Sirius was gone. Harry woke up like a shot.

"Harry! Harry, wake up! Harry! Are you ok?"

Harry looked up to see Hermione staring down at him.

"Sirius! I've got to save him. If I could just get close enough I can save him." Harry sat up and was trying to get out of bed but Hermione wouldn't let him.

"Harry, it was a dream. Sirius is dead; you can't save him."

Harry just stared at her but he knew she was right.

"Have you been having this dream a lot?"

Harry could see the worry on Hermione's face. He couldn't lie to her. Plus he needed to talk to someone and if he couldn't talk to her then whom could he talk to?

"Every now and again; it's been about three days since the last time. Which is nothing compared to the first two weeks I got back when I was having it every day." Harry felt his eyes get watery; he knew he was going to cry but, more importantly, he knew he needed to.

"What happens in the dream?" Harry could see her eyes fill with tears.

"I see him start to fall but it's in slow motion. I try to get to him but I can't. Something won't let me. And then Sirius disappears into the veil and I wake up." Harry could feel the tears running down his face. He looked over at Hermione and tears were running down her face too.

Harry grabbed Hermione by her waist and pulled her into his lap and she put her arms around him. She stared into Harry's eyes, leaned in and kissed him so close to his mouth that the edge of their lips met, and then she placed her head on Harry's chest. Then with unspoken words, Harry pulled up the bed sheet, Hermione climbed under and they both laid down. Harry could feel her bare legs next to his and her tears falling onto his chest. He didn't know what it was about Hermione but she calmed him. Soon they were fast asleep wrapped up in each other's arms.

A/N- Ok I know this was really really short. But it's because the next chapter has a lot going on in it and this is the best place to stop. The next chapter will be out either later tonight or tomorrow morning. So you won't have to wait that long for it. Don't forget to review!
