I just wanted to say a quick thank you to everyone who has left feedback since I fell off the face of the earth. I appreciate all of the support you have given me.

Loads of love,
~Dayna

Dayna, you're back with a shiny new chapter! And what a chapter it was...I loved it! I had forgotten how much I needed my Keely/Draco fix until I got my automatic email saying that you'd updated. I'm thrilled!

Ooh, that slimy Pansy Parkinson; stepping out on our Draco like that. I'm glad she got what she deserved!

Finally Ginny knows and no matter what might come of it, Draco and Keely are now "out". I loved the way they walked out of the empty classroom hand in hand on their way to potions.

Great Job, Dayna!
Hugs,
Lisa

OMG OMG OMG!! Yaay! Shiny new chapter, Zwillo! I LOVE IT! It's really good! -stabs Pansy- Rawr, I hate her xD But yay for Draco! He showed her for once!!! <3

Poor Keely, but it's not her fault -cough- Ron and Pansy could comfort eachother in their grief -coughcough-

Yaaay! -throws cookies at you- <<<3

Fifth !!

Squeee! Third in the row! Yay, a new chapter! Don't worry Dayna, we all were so eagerly expecting a new chapter that everything's forgiven Awesome, I missed so much this story! Let me remind you that this is the first time ever I'm so hooked up to a Draco Malfoy story so yay!

Lol, we all knew Pansy was kinda a complete(fill space), but I just thought Draco was fed up of her and that was the reason of the break up *sneer* Take that, P-a-n-sy!

It had happened so much time that I had forgot Fred had indeed kissed Keely, but much the better, because it surprised me again

Well, now the secret is out! Can't wait for more trouble and Ask Honey's!

as fifth said OMG OMG OMG!!! I HATE PANSY!!!!! How dare she step out on Draco like that?!! She derserves whatever she gets and more. hmph evil Pansy...

I absolutly loved the chapter especially since it has been such a while since you last updated. I am so grateful you gave this short but effective chapter to keep us going it makes me happy and feel less of a need for cookies which is good cause I'm getting fat on them XD....sorry I am one of those people who eats loads when they are bored.

Anyway, I love that chapter....feel Ginny's reaction was very accurate and that Draco was very sweet in comforting her and that they are finally out in the open with it all! It has to start getting super good now XD!! (i ean better than it was which is gonna be pretty hard but I'm sure you can pull it off )

You rock

Update soon

Down with Pansy

THD
xxx

Squee! A new chapter! *does happy dance*

I loved it to bits! I can't wait to see the next letters to Honey. I can just imagine it now:

Dear Honey,

The entire school is in upheavel because of Draco and Keely and I really don't think they belong together. How do I break them up?

Pansy Totally Desparate

Grrr, I hate Pansy. Oh, and I agree with The Happy Dementor:

I love, love, love the new chapter! Pansy is such a cow ! She is the most infuriating person in the whole series. Sometimes ripping her throat out doesn't seem like half a bad idea.

Draco is so sweet. I know I keep saying that but he truly is. I want him as my own boyfriend. It's not fair. I am getting seriously jealous of a fictional character. That's how good your writing is.

Love the new chapter!

~alyssa~

Ahh! My friend, who is also folllowing your story, told me you updated today, and what's the first thing I did when I got home from school? Read yopr amazing chapter, of course! I can't wait to see what happens next, and I'm glad you have had time to write.

I despise Pansy, and she needs to just disappear... maybe the same way Draco feels about the Weasleys. He can just deal with it. I'm glad you included more of Ginny, as I see her and Keely being quite good friends. I am glad that I've had some fanfiction to look forward to today!

-Kiersten

Lisa~ Yep, I'm back. I'm so glad I could give you your Draco/Keely fix. And yes, whatever happens now. . . They are "out". It should be fun.

The Fifth Marauder~ Yay. . .*ducks as cookie soars over head* I'm so glad *ducks again* you *and again* like it! *Rubs cheek where cookie hit*

I know, I hate Pansy, too. hehe. . . I can see it now. . . Pansy crying on Ron's shoulder while he rubs her back consolingly.

P.S. I'm still waiting for that thing you told me about. . .

DeSs~ Thanks for forgiving me, sweetie.

I'm glad I could surprise you again. And I'm glad that you're so hooked on a Draco story.

Stay tuned, more trouble and Honey advise to come.

The Happy Dementor~ Oh, don't worry, my cookies are low fat! Anyway, I'm glad you loved the chapter. I can totally see Ginny acting the way she did, I'm glad you can too.

I hope the rest of the story can live up to your expectations. . .

I'll have to see if I can come up with something awful to do to Pansy. hehehe

Sister to the Dark Lord~ hehehe I love the happy dance! *happy dances with Sister*

I loved that Honey letter! Do you mind if I use it? Or something like it, anyway?

Alyssa~ I know, I hate Pansy, too. I always have, so it makes it nice in my fanfictions to have a ready made *cough cough*

Thank you so much for the incredible compliment. An author (well at least I do) loves to hear that their writing takes the reader right into their work.

Kiersten~ Glad I could give you something to look forward to.

And there will be still more Ginny to come.



Thanks everyone for your wonderful feedback and support. I love hearing from all of you. I'll try to get chapter 21 up before too much longer. It definitely won't be as long as a wait as the last time.

Loads of love and hugs,
~Dayna

I'm so glad your back at writing your story. I was beginning to wonder when you would start writing it again. I really missed all the characters and the whole plot. I am so glad you are back!

I don't mind if you use the Honey letter, Dayna! I love inspiring people and I'd feel so important if I actually influenced something as amazingly wonderful as your story! *squee*

*continues happy dance with zwillo*

evil Pansy!! I loved the capter! Honestly, Draco's going to have to learn to like the Weasley's. Personally, I think they are great!! I loved this chaper! I have got to go tell my friend!! We are both extremely obsessed!
~Emery

Thank you Emery and redheadfan, for your feedback. I'm glad you liked the chapter.


I just posted chapter 21. I hope you all like it, as well.

Lots of love and cookies,
~Dayna

Dayna, you brightened my dreary day with chapter 21! I'm thrilled that your writer's block has cleared. Poor Keely; all her friends abandoned her, with the exception of Hermione. At least that's what I thought until I read the sweet exchange between her and Fred. That was precious. I felt so bad for Fred, and Keely too. It must be difficult for them, but it's lovely that they can still be friends and share their feelings openly. And now we know for sure that that letter was from Fred. I had a sneaking suspicion...

You did a great job, as always, making me feel like I was sitting right beside them down at the lake and eavesdropping on their conversation. You rock!

Hugs,
Lisa

Fred's such a sweet guy for hanging in with Keely while she's still with Draco. That amount of rejection hasn't pushed him away. Awwww, poor Fred .

I'm so glad you posted a chapter, because none of my favorite fanfics (including yours of course) have updated in the past couple weeks and it's been killing me. It was a nice chapter to put in there because we had to know how Keely's friends stood in her situation-against or for her. She must be feeling so lonely with only Hermione and Fred talking to her.

Can't wait for more!

~alyssa~

*swipes cookie in polite manner* YAY!!! OMG!!! I haven't been on in a while and no way did i expect a new chapter so I utterly freaked!!! YAY!!! Excellent, I love quidditch matches, they are always so well descirbed,..I can't put my finger on the excitement I share with the characters while they fly about on their little sticks that couldn't possibly hold anyone up.
I. Can't. Wait. So please please hurry with the next chapter but of course don't rush it so....ok ignore me cause I am confusing myself so you surely wont be able to understand....I dunno...

It wasn't a very very long wait just a....longish wait. Thanks again for updating. Update again. I like the way Fred was all deep and respectful and not being all possesive and angry....ok really going now.

bye
em
xx

Yay-za, I loved it! Hee hee, poor Fred. That wasn't very nice of him, weasling Keely's secret out of her like that. Hmph. Oh well! I was so excited to see a version of the Honey letter I wrote in the actual story! I was so haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaappppppppppppppyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! Haha!

*licks cookie crumbes off fingers* Thanks, that was delicious.

Loved the amazing chapter, can't wait to read the next one!

Cheers,
Sister
<3

Dayna,

Oh I'm so happy that you updated again! I was really in the mood to read an updated fic. You timed it perfectly.

I really enjoyed your new chapter! I feel bad for Keely at being rejected by all of her friends, except Hermione. They all act like it's the end of the world. But I still feel sorry for Fred. He's just so awesome and sweet. I really liked their conversation down by the lake. And Fred's so sly! He got Keely to admit that she's Honey. (By the way, I loved Keely's response to 'Desperate's' letter.) But I'm happy that Fred is talking to Keely. That makes two people that are. I hope everything works out with her friends.

Update whenever you can!

-Chelsea

Ahh! I'm so glad to come back from Virginia to find a new chapter of fanfic up. And the cookie was delicious!

I knew that Fred knew she was Honey. The way he kept hinting her with a reaction, haha. And then quite a few things revealed in this chapter... I can't wait until the quidditch match. So, it must not be too late in the year yet because the Weasleys and Harry haven't been banned yet. I can't wait until you post the next chapter up, as your writing is always amazing! Don't keep us waiting for long, please.

-Kiersten-

I loved the new chapter! You know what? You are really good at leaving us hanging. And that's a good thing. I really love this story. it's really good and it's like the only one I read I'm still looking for another good one. I mean absolutely no offense to anyone, but if you have any suggestions you can pm me. But this chapter we saw more of Fred alot more of Fred actually I really think that you have done a good job since you've been writing this since like January or February. I really hope this story does well! I'ts like what I look forward to!!
~Emery

i really loved this chapter. i totally agree with britshemmafan it had a lot more of fred in it. i like fred a lot so that is a good thing. and what britishemmfan said about you are really good at leaving us hanging she is so right. you are! i cannot wait to find out what her answer is to fred's last question. i will eagerly be on this site waiting for the next chapter.

~Isla

Hi everyone! Sorry for my horribleness at not replying to your wonderful reviews. I hope you will forgive me, and I hope you liked chapter 22.

I'll try to be better with replies this time around.

Love to all,
~Dayna

No, Keely! I hope she's alright and not majorly injured... but then we wouldn't have any more story correct? Anyway, I loved the way the quidditch game was written; it was like I was actually reading it as JKR wrote it! And I was felt like I was in the game... I get to attached to these stories, haha. I'm really curious to see how her parents react.

Excited that you updated! But still can't wait to read more!

-Kiersten

Dayna, that was F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C!! The quidditch match was so exciting! You had me on the edge of my seat and I'm not even a sports fan. The quality of your writing never ceases to amaze me. Great chapter and I'm looking forward to finding out why Keely's parents are at Hogwarts. I'm also anxiously awaiting Draco's reaction to Keely being injured. I hope he takes very good care of her!

Huge Hugs ,
Lisa

Oh no!!! Keely's hurt. That's terrible. I bet that Fred and George were trying to knock Draco off of his broom. I know they were Mean!! Which made Keely worried so she leaned forward and got hit by the bludger. So it's their fault. Bad Fred and George. *tsk,tsk, tsk*

~Emery

omg! Keeley's parents! EEK! Wouldn't want to be her, I really really wouldn't.
Great update by the way, I was begining to think you had died but thankfully you were just busy and no life ending fates occured. I can't believe Fred and George! That was just plain mean! ....ok so I guess it wasn't against the rules but still....
And now Keeley is unconciouse and her parent are there and she is gonna be all groggy when she comes round to see their disapproving faces.

Kiersten~ Thank you so much. I'm glad you liked the quidditch match, and you are extremely flattering to tell me it sounded like JKR. Thank you. Yes, what kind of story would it be if the main character died or something with no closure.

Lisa~ Awww... You give me far too much credit. I have much improving to do as an author, but thank you for your wonderful compliment. Keely's parents are at Hogwarts because they recieved a tip from some horrible student telling them that their daughter was involved with Draco Malfoy. Grr... that person, whoever they are!!! Why can't they mind their own business and let Keely and Draco be happy???

Emery~ Yes, Keely is hurt. No, it isn't Fred and George's fault. Keely wasn't paying attention to the game because she had spotted her parents coming toward the pitch. If she had been paying attention to the game she would have seen the bludger heading toward her and had time to get out of the way.

The Happy Dementor~ I, too, am thankful that no life ending fates had occured. And I, too, am glad that I'm not Keely. I definitely don't envy her having to face her parents about Draco. Hopefully seeing her unconscious in the hospital wing will soften them up a little. Only time will tell. (And hopefully not so much time, this time)



Thank all of you for your wonderful reviews. Thank you for not giving up on me and my story.

Love to all,
~Dayna

Wow, I thought the whole idea of a Quidditch match was awesome! It was interesting to see the two different sides, one house full of Keely's long-time friends, and the other house with Keely's boyfriend... as for who tipped off Keely's parents, I wonder who!!! I doubt it was Fred, he cares about Keely too much to do that. For some reason Pansy Parkinson shot to my mind. I mean she is obviously infuriated about the fact they are seeing each other, perhaps telling Keely's parents is a way of seeking revenge? Her parents must be mad. To actually show up in person instead of sending a strongly-worded letter or even a howler!! Intensity!!!

Megan~ Thanks for your feedback! Yes, her parents are furious, particularly her dad. Pansy was the one I had in mind, too, so good guess. I'm glad you liked the quidditch match. I had a lot of fun writing it.

Thanks again for your review! You're awesome!!!

Loads of love,
~Dayna

Oh no Draco, Fred, Ron and George. I'm sooooo confused but I did like the chapter. So confused. This is terrible. What is wrong with Keely?? What are her parents talking about. Here's how I feel: somewhat. Ahhhhhhhhh!!

~Emery

What is happening? Oh gawd she isn't dying is she? What is she? Oh you annoying and yet amazingly talented person who makes stories so complicatedly interesting! Why did she fient and is bleeding and everything? What did her father mean? no wait don't tell me I want to read it. Yes I will. Yes I will. I will read it and be amazed beyond belief. Oh yes I will.

Fred and Draco fighting? That makes me feel sad and interested at the same time. Yeah they are boudn to fight but while keeley is in hosptal recovering from a near fatal incident that was mainytheir fault anyway? Poor Keeley.

Why did she suddenly have the anger attack? no no don't tell me! Darn my evil impatience! You'll have to forgive my hyperactive side.



Ditto to that.

Em
xx

Emery~ Aww... I'm sorry you're so confused, but I'm glad you liked it anyways. Keely's problems will be explained in not the next chapter, but the one after that. Hopefully then it will make sense to you. Thanks for your review!

Em~ hehe No, she isn't dying. You'll find out soon. I was afraid that Keely's condition would be obvious when I wrote the chapter, but I guess it wasn't. Good! I like to keep you all on the edge of your seats. You'll find out soon what's going on with Keely. Thanks for your review!



Chapter 24 will be up tomorrow. It's already written, but beware, it's a long one. It's nearly 3000 words long.

Until next time,
Love to all,
~Dayna

(Oh, cookies! My mouth is watering!)

Yay! More of Ask Honey!!! I quickly caught up, luckily, and I've got to say... I felt sick with the last lines! Poor Keely!! What is happening to her? What is she? What, God, what?

I already don't know what to say, more than the usual hi-five for such a great plot, descriptions and dialogues; it's seriously gripping-- or addictive!

I'm sad with Keely about Fred and Draco. And I thought Fred was being sincere and was going to leave Draco alone! It's quite mean from all of them, but I wouldn't trust Draco either.

I hope everything will get better soon... but the fun will keep on!

Hugs, and I pick one cookie! (or... two more, ok)

Dessi~ (Holds out plate of cookies) Here take as many as you like. hehe, you will be able to see what Keely is in Chapter 25. At least that's the plan, I haven't written it yet. And yes, everything will get better soon.

Thanks for the review, love!

Loads of love,
~Dayna

PS I LOVE your new twitter picture!

I just finished chapter 23 and before I start chapter 24 I had to say: Wow! I wasn't expecting such a plot twist. You really are a great writer and you keep us so entertained. Just when I'm ready to read about Keely's hospital experience and a few more "Ask Honey" letters, I get a fresh, juicy, new twist to gnaw on! Oh and a delicious peanut butter and chocolate chunk cookie!

I'm back now after reading chapter 24. Aw, I love Chandly; she's so cute and such a great addition to the story! You always find a way to make me laugh! And now Keely is playing match maker with the house elves! Oh my goodness, you are too cute!

So, onto my theory. I'm thinking that Keely has the power to make pain and bad feelings go away for others, but it gets inflicted on her instead. The poor dear (if I'm right). She'll be a mess constantly if she keeps that up. I hope Hermione can figure out a way to help her. She's a clever one, that Hermione!

Great Job! I'm always amazed, and jealous, at the speed at which you can write.

Hugs, hugs and more hugs,
Lisa

Lisa~ Aww... thanks for your review, sweetie. And I'm glad I could make you laugh.

I love Chandly, too. She's such a cute little elf and she deserves to find love, doesn't she? I think Dobby would be perfect for her.

Oooh, good theory!!! Should I keep you in suspense or let you know whether or not you are right??? Hmmm... I think I'll wait. Chapter 25 will reveal the secret and it should be up sometime tomorrow, since I'll have nothing really to do except wait for the flood guys to come back to my apartment and finish up, then wait for the flooring guys to come in and measure... Sounds fun, huh?

Anyway, thanks again for your review, you're the best!!!

loads of loves and hugs and peanut butter and chocolate chunk cookies!
~Dayna

Oh, so I just read the new chapter because my friend told me another one was up and I really haven't been on Vtm so much lately. I just hurried on here to read! I really did like it; the ending I especialy fancied the ending because it placed Hermione so in character. Plus, we definitely know that Hermione and Keely have some like qualities, but then you also show how caring Keely is. She's not perfect, but she seems to be sort of going in that direction, and then you'll bring back those faults in her.

Developing my theory, which I've been doing lots of lately on a lot of things, I can't really figure out that she's something we've seen before. Is her "condition" or "power" something that you came up with? I can't wait for the next chapter, as always. Love your writings! They keep me entertained and eager

-Kiersten-

Oh, wow. Poor Keely, that must not be fun. But really, with all of the consequenses if her gift is not controlled does kinda put Keely's parents at fault. If they had told Keely, she could have started learning to control it.

Meh, who cares? This is a great story, and I love every. Single. Word!

Cheers,
Ty
<3

Kiersten~ Hey there! Thanks so much for your review!! No, Keely is not perfect. She breaks rules and makes mistakes just like everyone else. And no, Keely is nothing you have seen before. I made her gift up. Well, not the empath part, because there are really people out there that are gifted in the sense that they have the special ability to feel the emotions of people around them. But I've never heard of anyone being actually able to take the pain away from others and replace it with warmth.

Ty~ Hey! Thanks for stopping by. Yes, Keely's parents are at fault for not telling her, but they do have a reason for it which will be written about in a future chapter. So don't be too hard on them yet. I'm so glad you love my story!



Thanks for stopping by, you two! I love hearing what you've got to say.

Take care,
~Dayna

Hmmm...I think I'd like a batch of chocolate chip!

Chapter 25 was great! I loved all the details you put into the reference book Hermione was reading. I believed every single word of it. If Hermione read it, it must be true! This is a really great story, Dayna! If it weren't for the fact that the other characters were the property of JKR, this could definitely be a book!

I'm eagerly awaiting the next few chapters so I can find out if Keely's friends can come to some sort of agreement to help her, poor dear.

Loads of Love,
Lisa

Mmm I was in the same emotions as the characters while reading this. My heart dropped at the thought of what could happen to Keely now. Wonderful power, an empath. I really like the idea of it. I was glad that Draco was finally brought back into the story. I missed him, hehe. I've become more fond of him since seeing and rereading HBP, so I'm excited to read more with him, haha.

I agree with Lisa. I want to see how her friends help her deal with this.. I just hope nothing too dreadful happens to her.

-Kiersten

This fanfiction has to be one of the best I've ever read. Seriously. I woud never have guessed that, mainly cause I didn't know they were called that but it is such an amazing twist that puts everything into such a completely different persepective. It makes you appreciate the emotions Draco and Fred and everyone else are going to be feeling and you have woven this condition in beautifully. What with Keely 'warming Draco's heart' as you will.

I thought that bit was brilliant. Best chapter so far and I REALLY liked the rain one so thats like 20/10.

Oh and this bit,

...even though I completely get where Hermione was coming from if someone I cared about was suddenly being smacked till they were red in the face I would have had a very similar reaction.

Well done! Update soon cause I wanna see how Keely takes the news.

Loved it,
Em
xx

I can't believe I missed 2 chapters. I started reading what other people's comments were and then I got confused. I'll go read it now. By the way, Dayna, you are doing a wonderful job on this amazing story.

I've caught up.

Oh, no I hope Keely's okay. She can't die. Or go bad, cold or anything! This is terrible.

Dayna, you've done a wonderful job!!!

~Emery

*Hands Lisa her very own batch of cookies for guessing right, then returns to the kitchen to retrieve the cookies for everyone else*

I'm so sorry I've been so lousy at replying to your feedback. You've all been the best readers ever and I do read and appreciate every one of your reviews.

Anyway, I hope you liked chapter 26! You're all completely and totally awesome!!!

Hugs,
~Dayna

Helloo,


Ahh! poor Draco, poor Keely. I really liked this chapter though. *Takes a chocolate chip cookie*
These cookies are great by the way.
I really like the way Draco had trouble talking to Hermione. Keely's dad is one (I don't want to say mean....) over protective father. I guess that's close. Anyway. I loved it!

You are one of the best writers ever.

~Emery

Hi Emery!

Yes, Keely's dad is extremely overprotective. But he does have good reason to be. You'll find out later what that is.

I had fun writing the Draco and Hermione scene. I could just see him there trying to thank Hermione, when thanking people is almost as low on his list of things he likes to do as talking to Muggle-borns. I imagine his list something like this;

Things a Malfoy must never do...

1) Be kind to Mudbloods
2) Apologize
3) Ask for things (A Malfoy takes things, he doesn't ask for them)
4) Say, "Thank you"

Thanks for your review and compliment, sweetie. You're the best!

~Dayna

omg how dare he! Stupid Jeremy! I am sure he probably has avery good reason for it but still! I don't know that reason so I have every right to be angry! Look at this face ANGRY!

Oh and by the way you got the Draco and Hermione scene spot on. So funny, and sweet, and funny and I loved it. Looks like Draco is learning how to grow up. Better start crossing some things off that list boy!

Loved it as usual.

Thanks for the update.

Em
xx

I'm late! Sorry, I got sidetracked, but better late than never, right? I just adored chapter 26! Like others have said, the scene with Draco trying to thank Hermione was brilliant; so sweet. You wrote it perfectly.

That kiss in the hospital wing was very yummy. I'd never let Draco go either if I were Keely! If only Mr. Chambers hadn't come in. I do hope that Keely's parents will come around and see just how charming our bad boy can be.

Lots of Love (and big thanks for the delicious cookies!),
Lisa

Honestly?!? Honestly? How did you get to be so awesome!? My thingy isn't working very well, the thingy that let's you know if there has been new posts in a certain topic? I missed two chapters! Two very good chapters! I feel so lucky you are my beta. So lucky! Oh boy, I can't wait until the next chapter! Sort of like Jeremy vs. Draco... it should be soooo interesting!! I don't think Ginny is going to be very decent to Keely for awhile... And where you said she could warm "the coldest of hearts" made me smile. You are a genius! So happy you are my beta. So. very. happy. Oh and thanks for the cookies! I am rather craving a white chocolate chip cookie...

Em~ I know what you mean. I'm not so happy with Jeremy either, but he does have a good reason. You'll find out what it is soon, I promise!

I'm glad you liked the Draco and Hermione scene. It was a lot of fun to write!

Lisa~ hehe, yeah, I would hold on to him for dear life. He can be so sweet and charming. Too bad Keely's father can't see that, huh?

Megan~ You're so sweet! Thank you for the compliment! I'm sorry your alert thingy isn't working? Hmm... Well, I had Triad move the story from the Draco section to the OC section. Maybe that's why... If you didn't get chapter 27 try re-subscribing. I don't know what else to tell you...

I'm glad you chose me for your beta!

Take care everyone and thank you so much for your amazing reviews!

You guys are the best!!!

Loads of loves and cookies to all of you!
