Nameless

Chapter Three

“Harry we need to talk,” Harry turned around at the sound of Hermione’s voice. She and Ron had followed up into the boy’s dorm. He had just come back from being in the phoenix room, as he now called it. Harry had been working on homework while thinking everything over. It had been several weeks since he talked to Draco. It was the now the middle of October. Ron and Hermione had been following him around quite a bit more and it was getting harder to avoid them. Snape, who he now knew to be Corben, was getting nastier to him, trying to get him angrier, and Dumbledore didn’t seem to miss a chance to remind him that everything bad happening in his life was because of Voldemort and that is where he should be directing his anger.

“Where do you keep disappearing too?” Ron asked when Harry didn’t say anything.

“Away,” Harry simply answered.

“What kind of answer is that?” Ron demanded. One could tell he was trying not to get mad.

“I just need to time think away from all the noise and commotion,” Harry sighed as he sat down on his bed.

“Harry you need to talk to someone. I think you have done enough thinking. If you won’t talk to us please talk to the headmaster,” Hermione sat down next to Harry and put an arm around him. “We’re just worried about you.”

“Yeah mate, come on. You can tell us anything,” Ron joined Hermione in her plea.

“No, I can’t,” Harry exploded at them, “Even if I told you guys, you could never understand what I’ve gone through. Just leave me alone.”

“Okay Harry. We’ll leave you alone for right now, but please think about talking to the headmaster since you won’t talk to us,” Hermione replied calmly to Harry’s outburst. “Come on Ron. Let’s leave him alone for a while. We’ll talk to you tomorrow Harry. Get some rest. It will do you good.”

Harry was once again in the phoenix room waiting for Draco. He had received a note earlier that day telling him to meet Draco later that evening. Harry was wondering if he was really going to show up. Midnight was fast approaching.

“I think I quite like it when you wait for me,” Draco’s voice floated into Harry’s ear, startling him. He wondered how Draco managed to get so close to him. He never even heard the door open up.

“Yes, well I wouldn’t get to use to it,” Harry said turning around to face Draco.

“I must commend you too,” Draco grinned as he glided over to one of the chairs.

“On what?” Harry cocked his head to the side as he remained sitting in the window seat.

“You have the whole school in an uproar on the golden trio going down to a golden duo and uno you could say,” Draco explained. “I must say watching my house mates speculate on the reason is quite fascinating, especially since I know the really reason. There are bets on how long it will take before you guys are no longer friends in the eye of the school population, anyways. Some people think it’s about time you quit hanging out with the weasel.”

“Hmm…could I make a bet myself?” Harry finally moved over to the chair across from Draco.

“Now that would be something to consider,” Draco smirked before turning to the business at hand, “A received a letter from my father the other day. Voldemort will meet with you during the Hogsmeade visit. My father will send me a portkey that we will use. The Dark Lord doesn’t know that it is you coming though. My father said he told him that I am bringing someone from school that is interesting in joining and that he has some information about Dumbledore and what he has planned.”

“The next Hogsmeade visit is in less than two weeks,” Harry glanced at Draco from the corner of his eyes.

“Yes it is,” Draco purred moving toward the edge of his chair. “Will that be a problem for you? You can always back out you know.”

“No, it’s fine. I’m going to do this Draco. You can count on that,” Harry stared directly into Draco’s silver eyes trying to will his heart to slow its beating.

“Harry…” Fred started.

“…just the person…” George spoke next.

“…we were looking for.” The twins finished together each putting an arm around Harry. They were in one of the many hallways at school with no one else in sight.

“What do you two want?” Harry asked cautiously. It had already been two days since he had talked to Draco and he had just been in another argument with Ron. He really didn’t want to deal with the twins at the moment.

“We just wanted to let you know that we are here for you Harry,” Fred stated seriously, George nodding next to him. The sudden change in the twins surprised Harry.

“We know you have been meeting with Draco,” George added, “If it has anything to do with Dumbledore we will help.”

“And you have Bill behind you too. We’ve known for a while now that he isn’t up to anything good. He may have fooled the others but not us.” Fred continued from where George left off. Harry wasn’t sure what to think at first, but then a smile slowly stretched across his face at the thought of still having the twins as friends.

“What all do you know?” Harry inquired.

“Not a whole lot,” Fred started.

“We do know that Percy is working for him inside the Ministry, Charlie is collecting dragons for him to use, and mom and dad are following him rather blindedly,” George continued speaking where his twin left off.

“Ron and Ginny are supposed to be making sure you stay on our side within his hands.” Fred added. “That’s about it.”

Harry took a deep breath after hearing this information, though it was nothing new to him it just drove it home more for him hearing it from the twins, and then proceeded to tell the twins all he knew and everything that had happened recently. “So I’m going to be meeting with Voldemort this Hogsmeade visit coming up.”

“Are sure that is wise?” the twins questioned him at the same time.

“Not really, but it must be done.” Harry stated firmly.

“If that’s the case we’ll cover for you,” George said with a wicked grin.

“Yeah don’t worry about being missed. We’ll take care of everything,” Fred agreed smiling back at his twin.
Harry actually got a little worried watching the twins grin, but he was immensely glad to actually have someone he knew still on his side. That made him think of Sirius and Remus and what he was going to do with the two of them. He was sure that they had been close enough to his parents that if he told them what happened they would back him up. He just wanted to make his deal with Voldemort first, then he would deal with his parents friend’s. Now what to do about Wormtail?

Notes: Hey would you look at that. I got a chapter up. Thank you to those that have reviewed. A big thanks to Aya-chan for making me realize how long it has been since I last wrote too. I don't ever plan on abandoning this fic. If you guys have any ideas or something that you would like to see happen please let me know. I haven't quite worked everything out so I can probably include it. Especially if there is anything that you want to see happen with Harry meeting Voldemort. Now please review.
