All warnings and summaries in Chapter One still apply and it's definitely AU.
Part Two
Harry was nervously helping Elaine pack for tomorrow, when they'd be heading to Hogwarts. Harry had agreed to become the DADA teacher and he was required to come a week early. Elaine didn't mind though because she'd dreamed of Hogwarts since she was a little girl and her patience to see it was wearing thin.
Elaine and her dad lived in a small country home far outside the city limits of London. They're only neighbors were a few miles away. She had four close friends her age and had become accustomed to small town life. Life for them had always been quiet and peaceful and although she was sad it leave, her excitement far surpassed her sadness. She didn't know what she would have done if her dad wasn't invited to teach. He had asked her over and over again if it was ok, and many a time she was forced to ensure him that she was happy about it.
Still, her dad was nervous, Elaine could sense that. What she didn't understand was, why?
He had been proclaimed the most powerful wizard at 15, defeated the dark lord and raised a child all by himself! What could he have to be afraid of?
Father……
The word hit her without warning or prior thought, the one thing her dad was afraid of.
Elaine had always been content with having her Daddy to herself but sometimes she wondered about her father. Dad never spoke about father, even when she begged or cried.
Aunt Hermione told her the only information she knew was that they bonded when her dad was fifteen in order to reach his potential power and the bond was broken before she was born. Besides that Elaine knew nothing, not even his name.
She didn't particularly care it was just…she had always felt this emptiness. .It felt like something was missing, a piece of herself. She knew if anyone had it, her father did. Elaine concluded her thoughts were silly; her dad wouldn't go if her father was there of course not!
"Elaine"
She quickly turned her attention to her dad's puzzled face.
"Are you alright, dear"
"Yes, Daddy." She answered.
"Time to go munchkin!" he grinned and gave her a kiss on the forehead.
She smiled back and placed her small hand in his, "I love you, daddy."
"I love you too sweetheart."
