just alittle fresh air does the trick!

Sarah nodded. "Then you know know very we'll how I feel." said Sarah softly as she looked at the lake with interest. Trough out all the hurt and pain Zandell put her through she still loved him and always will. As Nick hugged her she hugged him tightly around the neck in a friendly way. It was a good feeling to have somone who knew what she was going through right now. When he asked if that was the only family she had she frozed and swallowed hard. "I have my blood grandparents, but there just horrible!"said Sarah softly. "I just gotten back from being in there custody, the Nesbitt's gotten full custody of me because my grandparents treated me badly."said Sarah shivering slightly.

Nick listened closely about Sarah's grandparents. "Well that is good, not that you grandparents treated you bad but that the Nesbitts got custody. Nick said with enthusiasm. "I wrote off all of my family but Adrian, my oldest brother Jess don't like me and I haven't heard from my sister since her wedding" Nick told her. It started to snow. "Do you have any plans for Christmas, if my girlfriend doesn't leave then I'll stay here so that she has somebody to talk to, it dosnt matter anyway though, Adrian is busy with Order duties" he said.

Sarah smiled. "Thankyou Nick."said Sarah softly as a breeze rustled through her hair making her shiver. "I never told anyone this, but my grandparents beat me."said Sarah softly as she lifted up her shirt and showed him her bruise side. "I had worse then this before."said Sarah softly. When he asked wht she was doing for Christmas Sarah shrugged. "I don't know yet, Sam said we might go home for Christmas."said Sarah softly. "Although, if I do, that would be good."said Sarah softly.

When Sarah showed the bruises under her shirt, Nick felt bad for her. He felt like he was going to far so he changed the topic. "It's cold out here, do you want to go inside" Nick asked Sarah. Nick skipped another rock across the lake, forgetting about the octopuses anger at the action. "Well if you and Sam go home then I hope you have fun" he told her. Nick took his wand and transformed the lake into a dirt pit with bones at the bottom. Nick didn't like the scene so he turned it back into the lake. The octopus reached out it's tentacle and slapped Nick so hard that he went to to ground.

Sarah nodded. "Yeah sure, I am getting a bit cold."said Sarah softly but honestly. Nick promise me you won't tell anyone what I told you please?" Sarah asked him with pleading eyes. She didn't want anyone to know about what happended to her, it wasn't nobodys business to know but friends and family. Sarah nodded. "Thankyou Nick, I'm sure I will."said Sarah softly. Sarah giggled as he turned the lkae into a dirt pit with bones. "Nice touch." said Sarah chuckling softly. Seeing him get hit her eyes widened. "Oh my gosh, are you ok?" Sarah asked him. She knew it had to hurt, from the sound of it seemed like it did.

Nick stood up. "Yeah I'm ok, probably just a bruise, and I won't tell anybody" he promised. Nick had a plethora of secrets lately, was he really that much of a trusting person, he didn't think so. Nick would hold all of everybody's secrets like they were his own though. Nick walked up the path to Hogwarts with Sarah and arrived at the door fairly quickly. Nick walked in and noticed a lot of people heading into the great hall for dinner. "C'mon lets go eat something" he told her

"Thanks Nick, I know I can trust you to keep it a secret."said Sarah softly giving him a soft warm smile. Sarah nodded. "Lets, I don't know about you but I'm about to strave!"said Sarah chuckling. Walking towards the Great Hall Sarah took a seat at the Gryffindor table and smiled. "You wouldn't believe how.much I missed Hogwarts food!"said Sarah piling her plate with food. Noticing people were looking at her Sarah laughed. "Sorry a bit hungry."said Sarah softly. Sarah was glad to be back home, she belonged here as well to the Nesbitt family.
