Chapter 5: Moment of Truth
Riley looked at her watch, Hermione was about ten minutes late. Riley already danced with the other girls and she let got of one of them already. So it was down to Hermione and the last girl standing. She was in the dance studio with Ryan going over the moves. Riley told Ryan that she would wait all day and all night if she had too. Ryan just shrugged and told her that he didn't have anywhere else to be. So they just kept going over the dance moves.
They were so into the dancing that they didn't hear the doors open, and see Hermione out of breath and already sweaty. She kept her head down and walked over to the table to put her stuff down. Work ran late and she couldn't get a hold of Riley. When she set her stuff down she saw that Riley's phone was by a bag and she noticed the missed calls were under "H." She shook her head and started to get changed. She didn't want to think about it right now.
Harry was helping her practice and then a few days ago with Riley. She couldn't stop thinking about that; it put a smile in her face. But she had to put it out of her mind for now, since today would decide if she was the chosen one, so to speak. Once she was changed into a small tank top, running shoes, and her skin tight work out pants, she began to stretch.
At this point Ryan looked in the mirror and saw her. He tapped Riley and nodded his head and Riley turned around and saw her. She hid her smile and walked over to her.
"Better late than never," she said with a smirk. Hermione looked up and tried to find the words but couldn't. Every time she saw Riley in a skin tight tank top and basketball shorts for some reason she can't think.
"I'm so sorry work ran so late. I had to sign off on these reports, and then my boss wanted to see me," she continued to rant on. Riley grabbed her water bottle and hid her smile as she took a sip. As Hermione continued to rant about work, the rest of the band walked in along with the crew for the video. Kelsey came up to Riley, "I kept them distracted and I even turn back the clocks," he whispered and gave Riley a small pat on the back.
Riley stood over with Hermione as the guys were setting up a video camera and a table. Riley looked over at Hermione and shook her head. She stood behind her and grabbed her arms and started to pull them behind her. "Relax. You got this." She let go of her arms and got in front of her and grabbed her head and started to slowly move it from side to side. "If you tense up, you're gonna loose focus." Hermione could hear a couple of cracks in her neck and she could feel the tension from her body.
"Okay we're ready for you now," the director said. Riley held out her hand and Hermione took it. It was the moment of truth now and Hermione could feel her heart racing. They went to the center of the room and Hermione introduced herself and the director nodded. Eric nodded and turned on their stereo. The music began and after a few beats the two started to dance.
****************************
Harry paced back and forth waiting for Hermione to get back from her audition. He checked his watch for again and only two minutes went by and he couldn't help but think that time was moving so slow.
"Harry sit down please you're making me sick," Draco said as he was flipping through the channels.
"I can't, cause if I do then my leg won't stop shaking."
"Point taken." Just then the door opened and Hermione rushed through. Not saying a word she grabbed the remote for Draco and changed the channel.
"Hermione was going on?" Harry asked. She put up a finger at him and her eyes were glued to the TV. Harry looked at Draco and he pointed at the TV. There on the screen was Kelsey and Riley.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the moment we've all been waiting for. Today we pick Riley's video girl." Kelsey said.
"That's right everyone. In this envelope has the name and picture of my video girl. After a few weeks we narrowed it down to three. The three had to have chemistry, be able to dance, and be able to be a good kisser."
"Trust us it was not an easy decision to make. But we had the final auditions today and we are now ready to reveal who will be spending three months with us in Fiji for this video."
"Just get to the bloody name already!" Hermione yelled making Harry and Draco jump.
"Okay everyone here we go," Riley started to open the envelope, and Hermione was holding on the Harry and Draco's hands cutting off their circulation.
************************************************************
Luna was in her office when there was a knock on her door. A beautiful blonde walked in, "Ms. Lovegood?" Luna looked up and smiled, "Yes, you must be Danielle," she said standing up from her desk and shook her hand.
"Please have a seat," she indicated with her hand and Danielle smiled and took it.
"I understand you want an all exclusive interview with Outsiders." Danielle started.
"Yes, actually I want to do a series. Each one gets their own issue and interview with me and me alone. The whole issue will be just about them individually. I want to capture what makes them who they are. I want the world to know who Outsiders are outside of each other."
"Very interesting. I actually never really thought about that," Danielle thought for a moment and pulled out her phone. "Who do you want to start with?"
**************************
Riley was standing in the warehouse where she and Hermione practiced their routine. She turned on some music and started to dance. Her hoodie was sleeveless and she was glad about it. She recently found herself wearing tighter shirts and tank tops and she didn't know why. She stopped dancing and looked down at her ring on her middle finger. It was getting warm and she didn't know why.
Just then the door opened and she looked up. The ring stopped it's warming sensation and she put that out of her mind. She didn't get a chance to even look at the person properly because they tackled her. But she knew who it was by the hair. She couldn't miss that strawberry scent anywhere. She just smiled and wrapped her arms around her.
"Are your bags packed because we leave in a week," Riley whispered.
Hermione pulled back a little and gently touched Riley's face, "I don't know what to bring."
Riley chuckled, "I have some one who can help I'll send them by tomorrow." The two didn't even know they were dancing. They were just slowly moving to the music.
"Why do I feel like I know you?"
"Maybe we knew each other in a different life time."
Riley shook her head, "I had a dream about you last night. It seemed so real," she pulled away and walked over to the window.
Hermione watched her for a moment as she put up her hoodie. She didn't know if she should ask about the dream or just wait for her to start talking. She looked around and saw the spot on the wall where the two took it over the edge the other night. Again she smiled at the thought of that. She looked back at Riley and she was now against the other wall looking at her.
"What I don't understand is that I feel as if I'm in love with you. But I'm with Danielle and what I feel for you I don't feel for her." Riley pushed off the walk and waved her hand and a nice four poster bed appeared. Hermione looked at it and couldn't help but notice that it was the same bed that was in Riley's dorm at Hogwarts.
Riley waved her hand again and there was a dresser with a mirror attached. Again similar to the one in Riley's dorm. Every time she waved her hand something else would appear. When she was done she walked over to where the stuff was and looked at them.
She looked at Hermione, "My bedroom in my apartment looks exactly like this. I don't know why but I keep getting this familiar feeling every time I walk in. There's always something missing. Danielle isn't filling up that void." Riley sat on the bed with her head in her hands and sighed.
Hermione walked over to Riley and kneeled in front of her. "Tell me about your dream," she said softly taking Riley's hands away from her face.
Riley sighed and closed her eyes, trying to remember what her dream was about. She stood up and walked over to the desk.
"I was sitting here singing a song. I was recording something," she turned around and pointed, "Then you were sitting there where there was a door. You were watching me sing."
Riley just stood there and put her hand down. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath, "I felt young. Like I was seventeen. I looked up and there you were. I asked you to stay the night and you did."
She sat in the desk chair and sat back. " I woke up in cold sweat after that. It felt like a memory." She looked up at Hermione with pleading eyes, "Please tell me if this dream is true."
*****************************************************
Remus and Harry were at a pub with Draco. "We need Hermione to stay close to Riley," Remus said.
"It's gonna be kind of hard since Riley is engaged to Danielle," Draco said after taking a sip of his beer.
"She's going to be with her for three months in Fiji," Harry sighed.
"Sirius is in Fiji. I thought you were going with him," Remus said in confusion.
"I was, but then I wasn't counting on my friends be kidnapped, then reappear five years later," he threw a piece of paper in anger.
"Harry, I understand your concern. But right now we need to some how get Danielle's office bugged. She's up to something, and it's not good. Some how some way we need to get them to have their memories back."
"Well according to Ginny Kelsey has his memory back already." Harry said and Remus looked at him in confusion.
"What are you talking about?"
Harry sighed and lit up a cigarette, "Ginny came by a few days ago. I guess Kelsey saw her at a cafe and he told her that he has his memory back. He said not to tell anyone."
Remus sat back in his chair and looked lost in thought. "It can't be," he said under his breath.
"What is it?" Draco asked wanting to know what Remus was thinking.
"I'm sorry but I have to go. I need to check on something." With that Remus grabbed his coat and left the pub in a hurry.
***************************************
"I take it you're not going to Fiji?" Jessie asked Danielle as she moved closer to her in the bed. Danielle smiled and shook her head. "No I told her that I have business here that I need to take care of." Jessie smiled and was just about to lean in and kiss her but then her phone went off.
"I'm sorry babe but it could be her," Danielle rolled over and answered her phone. "What?" Sitting up, "But that's impossible." Jessie sat up next to her with a look of concern on her face. "Yeah, I'll call you later," she hung up her phone. "I can't believe this."
"What is it?" Jessie asked running her hand down her back.
"Hermione Granger is the video girl."
"But that's impossible. Our sources say that she's in Russia!"
Danielle didn't say a word, she got out of bed and started to get dressed. "I'm sorry but I need to confirm this," she gave Jessie a quick kiss and rushed out of the bedroom.
***********************************
Hermione and Riley haven't said a word to each other since Riley explained her dream. They each just kept pacing in different directions. As if to avoid each other. Neither one wanted to go first. Just as Hermione was about to tell the truth, Riley's phone went off. But it was the other phone not the phone Hermione's seen her with.
"It's Danielle, I have to take this." Hermione just nodded and walked over to the window.
"Hey" Riley answered. "Yeah she's the one I picked."
Hermione watched as Riley put took her other hand out of her pocket. She always did that when she had to explain things. "She's the only that got everything that I asked for."
"Will you calm down please? Look she's the perfect one for this okay? Plus you told me I could pick any girl I want and I picked her. So you can deal with it!"
"No you're not coming to Fiji! I will make sure of that!" Riley walked over to the wall and put her hand against it.
"Danielle, I can't do this. I can't. We've put on a front for too long. I can't do this. We fight all the time and you down grade me. You never even told me you loved me."
Hermione's head turned at that one. "How she not love her?" She thought. That might have been the craziest thing she's ever heard.
"I can't do this anymore. As of right now I don't want to marry you. I'm gonna go to Fiji with the guys and Hermione and when can talk when we get back."
"Goodbye Danielle."
Riley hung up her phone and looked at Hermione. "Hermione please tell me that the dream I had was real. I just need to know."
Hermione smiled and didn't say a word. She walked up to Riley and just kissed her. Riley wrapped her up in her arms and slowly walked over to the bed. As soon as they laid down Riley pulled back and grabbed her head and started to yell in pain. Hermione got off the bed and pulled out her phone.
"I need you to get here now. Old warehouse by our cafe." She said and hung up the phone. She then looked for Riley's phone and looked through her contacts. She found Kelsey and called him. She told him where to go and he said he would be there soon.
Within thirty seconds she heard two pops and she saw Harry and Kelsey. "What happened?" Kelsey asked as he pulled out his bag and began to dig through it.
"I don't know she just started to grab her head and started screaming in pain." Kelsey nodded and he pulled out a vile and grabbed Riley's head to hold her still. "Riley I need you to take this," he said she looked at him with tears in her eyes, "It will make the pain stop I promise."
Riley nodded and she took the potion. When she finished it, her head fell back and Kelsey picked her up and put her on the bed. He sighed, "It's happening again."
"What do you mean it's happening again?" Hermione asked. Kelsey looked at Harry then back at Hermione.
***************************************
"She broke it off." Danielle said into her phone. "I know, it's activated." She poured herself a small glass of vodka and then sat in her desk chair. "As far as I'm concerned they all still don't have their memories back," she took a sip of her drink.
"Did you know that Hermione Granger is in town?"
"I take it from the silence you didn't know. Well if there's Granger, that means Potter isn't too far behind. As well as the rest of their friends." The wheels in her head started to turn. "What if we create something with their friends? Make them work here and then blackmail them some how?" She said with a smirk. She would create something so big and then they would all loose something again.
They had to speed up their plan. Now that Hermione and Harry are back in the picture things needed to speed up. This is going to end in war and it will all come down to who Riley will choose.
