It was only a matter of time...

Sophia was bored out of her mind, she needed something to do from keeping herself from going crazy. Although, Sophia was sure she was already pass crazy to the point of going completely insane. Yes, Sophia had fallen off the van wagon and there seem like there was no point of return for her. As she apperated to Hogsmeade she was surprise she had the strength to do that without passing out or falling. As she appeared with a small pop she walked through the crowded street of Hogsmeade heading towards the three broomsticks.

As she pusjed the door opened the bell tinkled above her head but she simply ignored it due th the fact she heard it so many times. As she headed towards the bar she gave the bar tender a soft warm smile. "May I have a butterbeer please?"Sophia asked weakly as the bar tender nodded. "Sure doll, coming right up."said the bartender as he set down his rag he was using to dry the glasses and started getting Sophia her butterbeer. "Here you are."the bartender said as he set down the glass. As Sophia gotten her money out she piad for it. "Keep the rest as a tip, and thankyou."said Sophia softly as she took a drink of her butterbeer and looked around the place for somewhere to sit.

That was thing thing about the three broomsticks, it was always busy and sometimes it was impossible to find a place to sit. As her black eyes looked around the pub she fianlly found a spot beside the window and smiled. As she walked over towards it she sat down breathing hard which wasn't like her at all. Sophia was usually never out of breath for vampires really didn't have to breath much. She knew it was because of her lack of blood in her system that was making her vampire abilities weak as well as her whole body as well.

Sammy had been home with her kids for the past couple of weeks, her kids where sick. At first it seemed like it was just a common cold and they would get over it quickly. But as time went by they didn't get better, they started getting worse. Now they have fevers and rashes. But the worst part is that now Sammy has the symptoms. Body aches and pains, sneezing, sniffling, and coughing where only a few of the symptoms that Sammy was feeling. So on top of having to deal with her kids being sick, now she has to deal with having the sickness herself. But what was most worst was the fact that since Sammy was turned into a vampire she has never felt sick or even weak for that matter. And that is what brings Sammy to Hogsmeade. Sammy had spent most of the day searching for medicine. But all the stores in london seemed to be out. Hogsmeade was the only one left in the area that had medicine that covered all the symptoms.

As Sammy put the medicine bottle into her bag she started having a coughing fit. She stopped where she was and leaned against the glass window to cough then catch her breath. After getting her breath back, which felt odd for a vampire, she looked around to see Sophia sitting at a table on the other side of the window. Sammy looked up to see that she had stopped right in front of The Three Broomsticks. Sophia still looked like the Gothic Queen that she wasn't. So Sammy decided to go inside and see if she could pry the truth out of her this time. Once inside, Sammy found the table that Sophia was at and headed for it.

If there was one thing she hated more than her parents, it wad being sick. Hitame wasn't used to feeling so weak and now even Naomi seemed to have the symptoms she had previously. Right now Hitame shouldn't even be out of bed, but she hated being suck in the common room all day and since she refused to go to the Hospital Wing, there was really nothing that could be done. Her coughing and sneezing had turned more violent and she had developed a fever now. Her body ached more than before and she had almost collapsed fatigue a couple of times. The pain in her head, not just from the fever, was killing her and she wouldn't allow anyone to help her, so she was pretty much screwed.

No matter how much she tried to keep her in bed Hitame just wouldn't listen to Naomi. The younger fi had basically turned into Hitame's bodyguard because of how sick she was feeling. To make things worse, Hitame still had the problem with the drugs and cutting herself, not only that but the problems with her parents were still there and it was causing her to fall into a depression, just like before when she thought they were dead. Aqua and Terra continued to send Hitame and Naomi letters asking them to forgive everything the two of them did to her and her sister. She wasn't sure about Naomi, but Hitame knew she would never be able to forgive them, evem if she actually tried.

Hitame, having always been fond of wearing dark colors, was wearing a dark blue shirt with black pants and dark blue sneakers. Naomi, as usual, wore bright, happy colors like pink and white, showing her purity and Innocence. Hitame had wanted to go to Hogsmeade, only because she didn't want to stay in the Gryffindor Tower all day, it felt like she was a prisoner in there now. She stopped abruptly, causing Naomi to almost bump into her and she noticed Sophia in the Three Broomsticks. Soon, not long after she had seen Sophia, Hitame saw Samantha and she wondered if something was wrong. She tugged on Naomi's sleeve and they both walked into the Three Broomsticks. Hitame immediately headed for the table where she'd seen the two of them.

James was bored out of his mind, and the boys dorm in the Gryffindor tower was starting to feel nothing more then a prison to him. Don't get James, he loved Hogwarts but at times he just wanted to get out of the castle and have some fun. Thinking of heading towards the lake he thought against for he been down there so many times this week it was starting to get boring as well. Deciding to take a trip to Hogsmeade seeing how it been forever since he been there. Being a seventh year was tough, for you barely had time for yourself anymore let alone go places like you used to.

James walked out the boys' dorm down the stairs and outside towards Hogsmeade which didn't take him long to get there for he was a fast walker. As he reached the small village he looked around wondering what to go to first. Deciding to get himself a nice butterbeer he walked into the pub up to the counter and waited for the man to get finished drying his last glass. "May I have a butterbeer please?"he asked the bar tender as he nodded. "Sure coming right up." the bar tender said as James gotten out his money and laid it on the counter. "Here you are."the bar tender setting the drink in front of him. "Thanks, the rest is yours."said James as he took his drink and looked for a place to sit. As she seen Sophia and Samtnah together with two young girls he smiled and walked towards them. "Hello Sammy love and Soph, who are your two friends here?"James asked softly nodding at Hitame and Naomi.

Sophia was snapped out of her thoughts as she seen to people sit in front of her. "Oh sorry, I was day dreaming."said Sophia softly but honestly. "Hello Sammy, Hitame and Naomi."said Sophia giving them a soft warm smile but it wasn't as bright as it usually was. Sophia was really weak, she was surprise that she haven't fainted yet. Hoping that she didn't in front of them she smiled at them pretending that nothing was wrong, but everything was wrong with her. For one, she was paler then ever and her voice was weak and her eyes were now black and she looked like a demon.

She knew she was weak and there was only a matter of time before her body completely shuts down on her. Sighing to herself she knew it was bad idea to come here for she knew that her friends were going to be here. Sophia knew that they were just worried about her, for she probably look worse then the last time they saw her. Although, Sophia knew if she was tell them what she was doing they would insist that she gotten help and she didn't need it. Of course, she was depress but it wasn't anything that she couldn't right? much to Sophia's dismay she was wrong.

As she seen James coming up towards them she gave him a smile that was just like the one she gave Sammy and Hitame and Naomi a weak one. "So... what are you ya'll doing here?"Sophia asked them curiously hoping they weren't here to check on her. Although, Sophia kind of figured that was the case for they were all here at the same time. It was really starting to annoy Sophia, but she knew they were just worried and concern for her for she was their friend and best friend.

Andrew walked through the crowded street of Hogsmeade holding his new girlfriend Emma Blackwell hand looking around thinking of where to go. "I'm in a mood for a butterbeer you want to go the three broomsticks love?"Andrew asked her softly. It been ages since Andrew been to Hogsmeade and he felt like a third year all over again. He knew it sounded stupid, but when work becomes a handful it's hard to do pretty much anything when your working around the clock. Andrew thought there wasn't any other place to take Emma then to Hogsmeade for it probably been ages since they both been here.

[sorry it's short I didn't want to God Mode Emma! ;]

Emma walked hand in hand with Andrew down the streets of Hogsmeade, happily. For two reasons that was, first Emma and Andrew were now boyfriend and girlfriend and this was their first day out together, second Emma hadn't been back to Hogsmeade in forever. Emma looked at Andrew as he asked her the question. "Sounds great to me, love." Emma said to him, looking down the street towards The Three Broomsticks. As they got closer to The Three Broomsticks, Emma could see through the windows and it looked like it was packed. "I wonder if we will be able to find a place to sit. I remember that this place was always packed." Emma said to Andrew, happily squeezing Andrew's hand.

Andrew looked through the window and seen that she was right. "Goodness, I forgot how busy this place gotten!"said Andrew shaking his head. As he looked through the window he seen Sophia, Samantha and his brothers and two other younger girls he didn't know. "I think we might of found a place to sit love."said Andrew softly as he walked into the pub and pushed opened the door as the bell tinkled above their heads. As he lead them through the crowd towards the table everyone was at he smiled at them. "Hey Soph, Samantha and James bro."said Andrew softly. at them. "And who would these two pretty ladies be?"Andrew asked one of them as he gave Hitame and Naomi a soft warm smile.

"Everyone, I would like you to meet my girflriend Emma Blackwell."said Andrew softly hoping they would approve of her but he was sure they would. "Emma love, these are all my friends this Sophia Granger, Samantha Burns and my little brother James."said James introducing her to his friends. He knew that Emma would get along really well with them for they all had the same interests as Emma did. As he pulled a seat out for Emma he smiled at her. "Here you are love."said Andrew softly. It been awhile since he saw Sophia or anyone for that matter for work was always keeping him late.

"So... how has everyone been?"Andrew asked as his eyes circled the table showing them that he was curious how they been. Andrew really missed seeing his friends, it was good to catch up with them and even his little brother in that matter. As for Andrew, he was happy he now had a girlfriend and his life couldn't be any better. Andrew hoped that his friends were happy or not happier then he was but at the look at Sophia she didn't look it. She looked like she she was going through he** literally and she didn't look like her normal bubbly self that he knew her to be.

Sophiew that something was definitely was up fro all her friends were here at the same time, that was something that usually nevered happened before. Sophia looked at them and gave them a confused look for she knew they weren't just all here on a Hogsmeade visit that was just ridcilous and to odd to believe. Sophia had a feeling they were all here to see if she was ok or if anything was going to happen to her. As Sophia looked at all her friends she gave them a soft warm smile. "Hello James, long time no see how are you?"Sophia asked him softly as she gotten up and hugged him before turning to Andrew and Emma and giving them a soft warm smile. "Same for you as well Drew, and nice to meet you Emma I'm sure we'll be good friends."said Sophia softly.

"Well... this is shocking everyone is here!"said Sophia laughing her tinkling bell laugh which wasn't really her laugh at all for it was weak. "I'll be right back I'm going to go get another butterbeer from the bar anyone need some more?"Sophia asked them softly. As she gotten up from her chair she stumbled a bit but looked at the others and smiled. "I'm fine, just didn't see the chair in front of me that's all."said Sophia softly as she bumped into a chair. Felling a bit dizzy Sophia closed her eyes for a bit and then opened them once again but it didn't help any at all.


As she shook it off she continued walking but her vision started fading in and out making it hard for her to see anything. Sophia knew her body was giving up on her and she knew it was only a matter of time before her she passed out or something. Sophia was hoping to get her butterbeer and drink it and leave before she passed out in front of them or something. As she finally reached the bar she smiled at the bar tender. "May I have another butterbeer please?"Sophia asked him softly as he nodded. As Sophia gotten her money out of her purse with much diffculty she set it on the counter. "Here you are Doll."said the bartender as he set her drink in front of her. "Thankyou keep the rest as a tip."said Sophia softly as she took her drink about to head back to her table. As she turned away from the bar about to head back to the table when the last bit of Sophia's strength had left her. As her vision blacked out her glass of butterbeer crashed on the floor as Sophia collasped to the ground.

Sammy watched Sophia as suddenly other people showed up at the table. Hitame and Naomi came up to the table. Sammy smiled at them. "Hey Hitame and Naomi. What brings you guys up here?" Sammy asked them getting excited when James showed up at the table. "Hey love." Sammy said to him gesturing for him to come and sit next to her. Then Andrew and a girl showed up. Andrew introduced her as his girlfriend. By the looks on their faces it must have only just happened. It was called that Honeymoon look. The extra happiness of a new relationship. Sammy smiled at Andrew and the girl. "Hello Andrew. It's nice to meet you Emma." Sammy said to them with a happy voice. Finally Sophia spoke. She said hi to all the people, then excused her self and walked up to the bartender. Sammy shifted her attention for only a second when she heard a glass hit the ground. Sammy looked to see Sophia on the ground. "SOPHIA!" Sammy screamed then rushed over to her in vampire speed. Sammy was the first one to her side. "Andrew help." Sammy said, knowing he had healing knowledge.
