Albus and I were sitting in a muggle restaurant, waiting for our order when we heard another family conversing. "Mom, can I get a hamburger, I really want a hamburger." Asked a young girl. "No, honey, I only get so much money a month for you." The brown haired woman said. The child replied with "Will you ever adopt me?" and the mother laughed. "Oh sweetie, no, because then I wouldn't be getting payed." She said as she folded her napkin. "Mom can I get a hamburger." The boy next to him asked. "Of course you're my real child." The mother said, and my eyes widened. "Albus, do you hear this?" I asked outraged. "Yes, I hear it Minerva, but remember we are in the muggle world, things work differently here than they do in the wizarding world." Albus said, looking at my fury. The girl walked away, presumably to use the restroom. "Hey, honey, if this works out you might get an IPad for Christmas okay?" The mother said when the girl was out of sight.
I stood, enraged, and walked valiantly over to the table, and Albus attempted to stop me. "I am sorry, but I couldn't help but over hear." I said, politely and calmly, as fire burned in my eyes. "Oh, I am sorry, if my daughter is disrupting you." She said. "No, ma'am, actually it was you." I said, as the girl returned. "I haven't done anything wrong." She said, as the daughter took her seat. I motioned over to the young girl. "What's your name dearie?" I asked and she looked up at me. "Rosie." She said quietly, and then the mother interjected. "Why do you want to know?" She asked. "Because I will be contacting a social worker, and I will be adopting this child. You, ma'am are abusing the system, and you are using the system for very wrong reasons. Rosie, I am a professor, I can support you. Would you like to come live with me, and be a part of my family?" I asked as I bent down to meet her.
A man came out with two men with cameras. "Hi, my name is JohnQuiƱones. You are on what would you do." John said as he shook my hand. I let out a large gasp as Albus came up to me. "This is all fake. Oh!" I jumped, covering my mouth. "You offered to adopt 'Rosie', why?" John asked. "I wasn't just going to sit there, and let some random person take advantage of a small child." I said simply. "And, you tried to pull her back? Why did you do that?" John motioned over towards Albus. "Because were we come from, laws are different and I just, didn't want to see my wife in handcuffs." He said, putting a hand on my shoulder. "Yes, we are vacationing from Britain." I added. "Well, sorry to ruin your vacation." He added, laughing.
"Quite alright." I said, as the little girl came up to me and gave me a hug. "Oh, you little rascal." I added as I returned the hug of the young one.
AN; this is my first cross-over so it was really fun. I hope you liked it!
