Next day, Eliza met Harry in the Common Room. She only showered and changed into her robes before walking out, avoiding the aftermath. Unfortunately, it didn’t work as she wanted and she met Harry when she last expected.925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLvNiZb9O7

“I-“925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkp5nbognZY
925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkBG89h5l9
They both started, making Harry laugh but not Eliza. In the end, she nodded towards him to continue.925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hJKtNdgJe
925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0jgQi1VWE
“How are you feeling?” He asked, already knowing the answer but he couldn’t think of anything at the moment.925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8CxtIfVB8q
925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlLiGJVishr
Eliza wasn’t stupid. She knew exactly what he wanted to ask her and she was ready to give him every answer he wanted.925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fTgslhkXw
925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvzbfg2VVC
“Fine. I’m just fine. I’m not going-“925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwmfuQ8EYK
925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0qkPoScZ1
“You don’t have to apologize for not telling me who you are. We both know I wouldn’t have reacted well. But we know the truth now,” He started, very serious and hopeful for some reason.925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqL8YIFnIf

The brunette sighed and sat on the couch, feeling fidgety. Harry sat on her other side, his eyes boring into her face. He really wanted her to say something to him, something rude even just so he could assure himself that they were still friends. 925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBjvibaPL2
Sirius was her father and his godfather; that couldn’t bring more happiness to him really. He had a family that he didn’t know about, one that was ready to welcome him with open arms.925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOT28ZlmAH
925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZsYz5JDpkW
“Where is my father?” She asked in such a soft voice that Harry almost didn’t catch it.925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMahkLjP3E7
925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGjvD2y1pn
“He’s alright. We used Hermione’s time turner to help Sirius escape with Buckbeak,” He whispered fully aware that it wasn’t exactly the place for such conversations.925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMRItlySJ2
925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMu8cQ2XDnF
Hearing that her father was safe ceased her worries. If Sirius was fine then Remus should be fine, as well. It was just a matter of time for her godfather to recuperate.925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6uyegOGXl
925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwulgGDku7d
“You know, Remus told me a lot about their adventures in Hogwarts and how troublesome our fathers used to be,” She started, making Harry chuckle softly. “He told me we resemble them so much... But are we friends?” 925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡclektu80xZ
“I want to believe we are. We don’t have to be as close as our fathers but we can be friends. We are friends, aren’t we?” He asked. 925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TWsyOCiYS
“I guess we are,” She admitted finally. “Thank you for saving my father, Harry.” Now that was a real shock for both of them.925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6oS672soku
925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEnxWnukIM
“You said it before, haven’t you? You never turn your back on your family. You and Sirius, you two are my family now.”925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5xFqlfZwY
925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSN14kvkGA
“These are big words for someone who just met his godfather,” She joked.925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTu4bAscYeD
925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3oenlDLcPP
The atmosphere became lighter now that they admitted they won’t break their friendship after what happened. If anything, Harry looked quite happy with it.925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSuom8ODkh
925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRoC86SkcH
“What about the rest?” She asked, remembering Hermione and Ron. They were the only ones who knew the truth about her family except Harry.925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhfZ1vfoaE
925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmNi0fpuY4
“They already got over it, believe me. If not, they will come to their senses in a few days and everything will be like before,” He was so sure of it, like they have been through that before. "Professor Lupin- he resigned. Snape told everyone that he's a werewolf and..."925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8p1S6zATMA
Eliza bit her lip and leaned back, "It's probably for the best."925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RnnP02pK2
"What about you? You came with him, didn't you? What will you do next year?"925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZO9k5Ggj5
That was a question she asked herself already and the answer came from Dumbledore himself. She was a witch just like any other and the time she spent in Hogwarts was irreplaceable. 925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJTh8ICeoF
"There's still a lot I don't know. I need education, don't I?" 925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQ7UaSmjZR
Harry smiled and nodded. That was a good enough answer for him.
The rest of the days passed quickly and Eliza found herself in front of Hogwarts Express between Dean and Seamus. She already talked to Remus and couldn’t help but accept the fact that he won’t return as a professor the next year. However, he assured her that Dumbledore won’t let anyone find out the truth about her family. She could return to Hogwarts for the rest of the years without a problem and he will be there for her, waiting at the other end of Hogwarts Express.925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3mMcWze3T

“This year has been eventful,” Dean started before going into a full story about Quidditch. 925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvybWOFNakS
Seamus seemed to have already lost interest and Neville was only partially listening to Dean.925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdYUWf2smT2

She sneaked out without a problem an hour later and walked in search for Harry. She wanted to ask him if he wanted to visit Sirius with her later in July but she met someone she completely forgot about.925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxYlefTqrx
925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmId2nbgNE1
“Malfoy,”925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUDJFhwp9Q
925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfNk8b3EgkG
“Molley,”925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLJx1SA8yp
925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcEpL76qQK
Thankfully, he didn’t say anything else and passed without touching her. But she couldn’t help wonder if Draco let his father know who he met in Hogwarts this year.925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qSHoEnh00
Actually, no; she really wanted Lucius Malfoy to know she was there. She wanted to meet him and ask him why Ophelia Molley was murdered and what kind of friendship they had before.925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡauVce5UaiO
925Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFE1JLjHNz9
Truthfully, Eliza couldn’t wait for her second year at Hogwarts.
