I just wanted to let anyone know that if they need a Potions or Charms tutor, I'm your guy.

Just ask me.

Can I ask you something else, instead? xD

[chaarrrliee_f]

sure? What?

[x_parvati]

Think you can take out some time out from your busy schedule for me? ;)

[chaarrrliee_f]

Of course I can. :)

[x_parvati]

Good. :)

Shall I meet you in the library?

[chaarrrliee_f]

Yeah, come on up here.

I'm in our usual spot :)

[x_parvati]

Fabulous. Just let me get there.

**Switch**

After putting a few more peices of parchment in her bag, she slung it over her shoulder and walked to the library.

Her face split into a grin when she saw him. "Hey, you!" she said cheerfully as she approached the their usual table.

"How's my favorite boy?"

[chaarrrliee_f]

Charlie smiled back at Parvati. He pushed his book aside and propped his chin in his hand.

"Pretty good. Yourself?"

He smiled again. He didn't know what she wanted to see him for, and he was slightly nervous.

I wish she didn't know how I felt about her...

[x_parvati]

"You don't want to know how I've been. Seeing you has been the only bright spot this weekend." She shoved her hand through her hair and sighed wearily.

She had been trying to convince Harry that something was wrong and he needed help, and seeing him nearly kill Bletchley in the hall had shocked her. Charlie knew how close the two had been, and she knew he had been there.

"I'm glad you're doing well," she said honestly.

ooc: I want to hug Charlie. :( He doesn't have a crush on her anymore?

[chaarrrliee_f]

Charlie watched Vati, concern showing on his face.

"You can tell me anything, you know that, right? What's wrong?"

[x_parvati]

"You were in the Great Hall when Harry conjured that snake - it nearly killed Bletchley," she muttered, sinking into a chair.

"Charlie," she whispered. "That's not the Harry I know...he hasn't been that way for a long time. The Harry I know wouldn't break Ron and I up. I still hate him some, but..."

Curling her hand into a fist, she pressed it to her mouth and looked away, afraid she would say too much. She didn't want anyone else to overhear.

[chaarrrliee_f]

Charlie leaned closer to her, his eyebrows knit together with concern.

"What do you mean, Parvati?"

[x_parvati]

"Marlow and I think someone is controlling him - somehow," Parvati hissed, looking worried.

"And a group of us tried to talk to Harry...I even locked him in the room with us so he wouldn't leave...but Harry kept insisting nothing was wrong...he wouldn't listen to any of us."

[chaarrrliee_f]

Charlie rubbed his hand through his hair.

"You're sure he just hasn't ... gone nutters or anything?"

Alright, so he was a little skeptical. But he barely knew Harry, and while he seemed like a decent enough fellow, he didn't really know what to say.

[x_parvati]

"He's pushing everyone away. I thought it was a phase he was going through."

She chewed on her thumbnail for a minute.

"I want to help him. I know he's an arse...but the good Harry is in there...somewhere."

She gave him a small smile. "I really do tell you everything, don't I?"

[chaarrrliee_f]

Gosh, he was so smitten.

And that was bad.

He blinked a few times, then reached out and patted her hand. "I'll do whatever I can to help you out."
