She looked at him confused. "I.. I.. I was in that room." She shuddered at the thought. "I couldn't get out" tears started to fall. "The door started opening and it wasn't one of them it was.. You." She looked at Harvey "but then your face changed and it was Alberto, then I woke to this floor." That kiss she didn't mention the kiss, but it felt so real just like that night. Her hand went to her lips and she had an urge to kiss him to see if the feelings were still real.

Justin came in from the stables after visiting his horse. As he walked in he noticed that something had happened. Everyone looked frazzled including Amethyst.

" What happened? Why didn't anyone come get me? " he asked in a concerned tone.

Harvey listened to her dream... he knew he was there but acted ignorant "Me??!! I was there??!! oh! Mins.." he was sad when he saw her tears.. as he noticed her hand go to her lips.. but he shook it out of him "Ok look I dont have a tissue so I am going to wipe those tears off your face.. ok?" he asked her.. he knew it was better to ask than to just wipe her face.. she needed to be warned what he was going to do

Minerva couldn't help herself face wet, still confused she wanted real feelings again not dreams, not hatred, not confusion. She ignored his question and pushed his hand away pulling him closer she kissed him. The feelings jumped from confusion, to hurt, to strong emotion towards him. When she realized what she was doing she jumped back. "I'm so sorry, I should not have.."

Before she could finish answering Justin came in. Did he see that she kissed Harvey her face blushed it was odd, but it was nice to feel that annoying blush again. "Justin I think you need to be with Ame. Her parents showed up and it was a mess. I thought it might be for me, but it was for her. ahh and this well ahh I fell of the sofa."

Harvey was reaching for her face to wipe it when she pushed it out of the way and kissed him!! what??!!! she was kissing him??!! and then she suddenly stopped.. "Er.. er... er.. i..its.. er.. o..o ..ok.." he stuttered as a ton of feelings rushed through his body and his heart beating very fast .. he could not believe what had just happened.. did she still love him??!! or was it just because she was sad at the moment.. he didnt want to kiss her back just in case she had just done it as she was sad and maybe feeling alone..

Minerva just looked at him, "No it's not Ok I should have never done it..That dream was just so real. I wanted to see if.." She wasn't really sure what she was trying to see so she didn't finish. Justin had left to find Ame so it was just them two alone. She looked at Harvey and then to the floor.

Harvey looked at her "Mins.... its ok.. dont worry... dreams can tend to feel real..." he said to her smiling.. poor girl she was so upset that she kissed him.. "Dont worry about it" he smiled again..

Without looking at him she asked the question that had been in her mind "Harvey has your feelings changed for me?" She looked at him wanting to kiss him again to see if the same feelings came back or not.

Harvey looked at her as he looked at her.. and she asked THE question... he could not believe that she had asked that.. he started breathing rapidly his heart beating really fast in his chest... he was going to proceed with caution but here he could be truthful as she had asked it.. ok here goes.. he shook his head and looked at his hands "No ... t..they havent." he said sitting down next to her and moving closer to her.. "I still like you.." he said as he looked at her.. he could not help the amount of feelings that were rushing through his body..

Minerva looked at him feeling guilty for kissing him when he still liked her. She didn't know whether she could trust her feelings, she didn't even how she felt about anything anymore. What is wrong with you she thought to herself. The feelings were there she could feel them, but she just didn't trust them. She couldn't take her eyes off of him. Her face blushing..What to do next she wasn't sure. She forgot all about still sitting on the floor or that other people might seem them at this point. All that was in her mind was Harvey and herself.

Harvey saw her look at him.. and he looked at her.. he couldnt take his eyes off her and he could see that she couldnt either.. he had so many butterflies in his stomach and it was like he had no control over what he was doing ... without thinking he leaned in and kissed her .... and pulled back again "Sorry! Mins I am so sorry!! really I didn... I er... I.. " he didnt know what to say .. he was supposed to be giving her space not kissing her!! "Please dont get mad!" he said .. he had worked hard to her to this point and he didnt want to her to be the Minnie she had become..

He kissed her, he kissed her. At first Minnie wanted to jump away, but her heart told her no. Then as fast as his lips were there they were gone and he was apologizing. She put her finger to his mouth to stop him from talking "shh" she said giving him a smile. "Don't be sorry" She rubbed his cheek with her hand. "I have so much baggage right now Harvey, I don't know which way I'm going. I don't know who to trust anymore. As much as this feels right it feels wrong because it feels like I'm breaking a friend rule or something. What will Ronnie think if she knew we kissed." She thought for a bit without taking her eyes off of him. "Harvey I think we need to take this one day at a time and see what goes on. I'm not saying we are together, but lets just see what happens." She leaned in and gave him another kiss putting her arms around him for as much as it felt wrong it felt right. After a minute or some she pulled away from him. "Let's not tell the others about this or about us. Let' s see how this goes before saying anything."

As he was apologizing she put a finger to him and told him not to be sorry.. she rubbed his cheek ... so many feeling started rushing him he thought he was going to faint.. oh my god! he listened to her as his heart beats and breathing became fast real fast.. he didnt know what to say... wow! and then she kissed him again and this time he kissed her.. he could not help but grin! He nodded "O...of c..course.." he cleared his throat "We will take this whatever way you want it... this will be between you and me.. no-one will know.." he said as he beamed at her.. and whispered to her "You are amazing" he said to her..

Amethyst was in the kitchen, busy making brunch. Cooking usually helped her mind breath. She left Minerva and Harvey in the livingroom to talk. She really needed to think about her birthday. Celebrate it? Nah. She wanted to be under the radar. For everyone's sake. She heard pawsteps, thinking it was her sister. "Hello Kyle." She said with a smile. She turned to see someone else.

Chaos wanted to be back in his daughter's life. After all, she was the heir. He couldn't, wouldn't forget her birthday. July 16. She was his youngest. Choas apparated into the home which he had left the night before. She was cooking, looking just like him, her like him her flowing black shining in the light, just as his long hair did. "Hello, Amethyst.." His husky, low voice echoing slightly.

Minerva blushed it felt good to be around him, but she was so afraid to hurt him again. "Harvey I'm a mess. Sometimes I want to be normal other times I feel it's better if I just stay out of emotions. I've hurt so many people, I have been through so much, but yet you stick by me." She played with his hair a bit. "I don't want to call this dating not yet, I don't want to hurt you again." She looked at the floor all the sudden she could smell something good."Let's go to the kitchen and get something to eat." She got up and headed towards the kitchen.


Minerva rounded the kitchen "What is cooking it smells so ..." She froze for a second a man was in the house her heart raced she didn't recognize the man. She pulled her wand "Who the bloody hell are you?" she yelled at the stranger.

Harvey smiled and just looked at her.. she was back.. his Minnie was back.. he felt like crying with happiness his Minnie was back.. he then listened as she spoke to him. he put a hand on her cheek "Mins... I like you alot.. so no matter what you do, or where you are I will be sticking with you.. here by your side.." he said as she started to play with his hair "That is fine by me.. as long as I have you with me.. I dont care what this is." he said smiling.. he smelled something good.. just then Minnie also mentioned something smelling good and they both went to the kitchen.. where they were shocked to see a stranger there in front of Ame.. as Minnie pulled her wand he did too.. ready to do any spell to protect his friend Ame..

Minerva's heart raced was he part of Alberto's group or someone for Ame again, she didn't care. She pushed her panic aside and put her wand against him. "Again I am going to ask nicely who the bloody hell are you and what are you doing here? You have three seconds to answer me." She stood her ground with the stranger not knowing what he wanted or even how he got in the house without them knowing.

'Thanks , Min. Is she alright? They didn't take her did they. " JUstin said nervously.
Justin found Ame just as her father apparated into the kitchen. " you don't have any business here. You need to leave." he said as he got in front of Amethyst. Then he called for Kyle, " Kyle, your father is here trying to take her again! Hurry, Please!"

Harvey watched with his wand up as Minnie asked the guy who he was.. that was the Minnie he knew Strong!!!! but he would protect her as well as Ame. and then Justin came in and called to Kyle that her father was here "Father??!!!" he then looked at the man.. and Ame.. he was her father??!! well he had said to her that they would be here when he came and they were to protect her .. their friend..

" min, put down your wand. You'll get into trouble." said Justin.

FATHER did Justin just say FATHER.. "I don't care who you are or who your kid if you don't get out of here I will make you leave." She moved even closer to him. Her panic being pushed down as far as she could send it. Anger came to her face, hate came in her eyes. All the hate and anger that she had built up from her kidnapping was being taken out on this worthless person in front of her. She heard Justin call to her, but she didn't listen her hatred, frustration, and anger was ringing in her ears. "I'll be fine" She said through her teeth, didn't the law say student could use magic to defend their selves. This was a dangerous situation, right.. Right she said to herself and she pushed her wand even further into the man.

" Harv, get her wand. Get it from her before she does something stupid! " cried Jstin as he stood still between Ame ad her father.

Harvey heard Justin tell Minnie to put her wand down.. should he? but then what about this new guy.. he then saw that Minnie was getting angry and fustrated.. "Mins dont do anything drastic.. listen to me please! dont rush into this.. let him talk first.. or he will say that we didnt give him an opportunity to explain himself.. " he said to Minnie,, he then glared at the man "Now talk.. why are you here now? after all this time?" he asked the man..

Minerva ignored them both she wasn't going to let this one get away with taking one her best friends. No one was there to save Minnie, but she was here to save Ame. "GET OUT" She screamed at the man. She moved her wand from his chest to his throat she could feel the anger.

Justin watched as Harvey tried to convince Minnie to put her wand away. Just then Justin decided to take action on his own. He would try to stall this stranger that was threatening everything he held so dear. " Sir, would you like to come sit in the parlor whilst My friend here goes to find my mum and Kyle. Perhaps we could get all of this sorted out properly. " he said as he gestured toward Minerva.
