I sighed as the exam was finished. Madam Pomfrey said that I was free to go today if I felt up to it. Hermione came in not a second later and looked at me in shock. I thought I was about a glare or some kind of angry rant about how I was a girl now, but what I really heard was this, "Damn your boobs are bigger than mine."
"W-what?" I asked.
"Your boobs are like twice the size of mine! It isn't fair!" Hermione said with a huge smile on her face.
"S-so you aren't angry?" I asked her.
"Why would I be angry?" she asked, "It was an accident. The reason I'm really upset about your boobs being bigger than mine is because my bras won't fit you."
"Are you a witch or aren't you?" I asked with a smile. No matter how long she's been here, in the wizarding world, she always forgot.
"Resizing?" she asked me making a face.
"There you go!" I laughed.
"You have a nice laugh," she said with a smile, "Guys will go nuts just to hear it."
"W-would you like to go shopping with me?" I asked her, "I don't really know what I'm doing."
"I would love to Harry," she replied.
"Ember," I corrected, "I'll tell Snape that we can go after I tell Cedric about the dragons."
"What dragons?" I heard Cedric's voice come from the doorway.
"Hagrid showed me the dragons they want to use for the first trial," I said, "Viktor, Fleur, and I had a heads up. I thought it was unfair that you didn't."
"Thanks... Ember right?" Cedric said, "You're changing your name to Ember right?"
"Yeah," I replied.
"I'm so thick!" Hermione yelled, "We have to go to Diagon Alley now!"
"What on Earth are you talking about, Granger?" Snape said.
"If Harry no longer exists, they cannot make Ember go in his place!" she said jumping up and down in excitement.
"Ah!" I said happily kissing her head, "You're a genius!"
"Well," Snape said, "Let us go. We have a lot to do."
"Let me get dressed," I said with a smile. Hermione resized the clothes before pushing Snape and Cedric back behind the curtain before coming back behind to show me how to put on a bra right.
"D-do you think it's possible for me to come shopping with you?" I heard Cedric ask.
"I suppose that is for Ember and the headmaster to decide," Snape said.
"Fine with me," I said finally getting the bra on right, "I don't like these things at all."
"Well with tatas like yours," Hermione said with a laugh, "You're gonna have to get used to it."
"But they're itchy!" I whined.
"Get used to it," she repeated. I liked the dress she had gotten me, but wearing a skirt just felt weird. It was very... pink. As I pulled my now really long hair up into a ponytail, Hermione was teaching me how to put on eyeliner and mascara. "You want to get as close to your eye as possible but don't poke yourself in the eye."
"Is it really necessary to make these weird faces while doing this?" I asked.
"Absolutely," she said with a smile, "It's a must."
I laughed and looked in the mirror again. I had little strands of hair falling out of the ponytail and framing my face. The eyeliner and mascara actually made my eyes pop even more than I thought was possible.
"You know..." Hermione said with a soft smile, "You look kind of like your mom but with black hair."
"You think?" I asked.
"Yeah," she said, "I do." I slipped on the white flat shoes that Hermione had given me and stood up again. "This is your purse, and this is your wallet." She held out a white purse and a pink wallet.
"What is with you and your obsession of pink?" I asked.
"I'm thinking we should get your ears pierced while we're in town," she said totally ignoring the question, "I think you would look beautiful if you had some cute diamonds. I'm also going to have to teach you to walk in heels."
"You ready to go?" I said with a smile.
"Yep," she replied.
We walked out from behind the curtain and Cedric and Professor Snape was sitting there waiting on us. "The Headmaster has given his approval that join us on our... shopping trip. He has even given us permission to stay over night and return tomorrow."
"Giving us more time to do what we have to?" I asked with a smile. I looked him and Cedric up and down. They were both in muggle clothes. Cedric was wearing blue jeans and a t-shirt with a light jacket. Snape looked kind of like a biker or something. He was wearing a black button-up shirt, black jeans, and a black leather jacket.
"You look good in pink," Cedric said with a blush, "I-if you aren't in the competition and all that... I was wondering if you would like to go with me to the Yule Ball?"
"You don't waist any time do you?" I laughed, but after seeing the blush on Cedric's cheeks, I smiled at him, "I'll think about it Ced, but no answer right now."
"I have a question!" Hermione said with an excited squeal, "If you start dating guys would that make you gay?"
"I don't know," I said with a smile, "I was bi-sexual as a guy. My mind hasn't changed at all. I still like treacle tart, still hurt over what Ron and Ginny did, still like Quidditch."
"Wait, wait, wait," Hermione said, "What do you mean 'hurt over what Ron and Ginny did'?"
"I'll tell you tonight," I said, "We can talk about it after I write to Padfoot."
"Who's Padfoot?" Cedric asked.
"Just a friend," I said with a smile, "Shall we go?"
We left the school and as soon as we were outside the gate, Snape grabbed onto my arm while Cedric grabbed Hermione's. I used Snape as kind of a fixture to find my footing. "Are you alright?" Hermione asked looking just as green as I did.
All I did was nod my head. I didn't want to open my mouth, not knowing what would come out. " and I will share a room while you two share a room," Snape said pointing to Hermione and me.
Our first move was going to Gringotts Wizard Bank. It was just Snape and me who went; we made Cedric and Hermione stay at the Leaky Cauldron. "Are you alright ?" Snape asked.
"What am I going to say to them? Will they know? Will they understand? Will they judge me?" I asked as I fiddled with my fingers while we walked.
"Why do I have a feeling this is about more than about the goblins?" Snape asked.
"What if the Gryffindors don't accept me?" I whispered.
"Ah, ," I heard a goblin say as he walked up to me, "Shall we get started?"
"Y-you were expecting me Griphook?" I asked.
"We've been expecting you for a few months, but as Mr.Potter, not as you are now. We have found some things that are incredibly disturbing in your transactions," Griphook said.
"What transactions? The last one I know of was just before school started," I replied.
"Exactly," Griphook replied. He then led us to his office. I gave Snape a confused look as we walked behind the goblin. All the man did was shrug his shoulders and continue to look forward. When we got to the office Griphook started to speak again, "I am afraid this is going to be a fairly long session; would either of you like tea?"
"Please," I said with polite smile.
"First things first," Griphook said, "Albus Dumbledore has been trying to keep these from you." He held up two envelopes and dropped them on the table.
I read the writing on the envelopes and gasped. The Will and Testament of James Flemont Potter and Lily Jane Potter was written on the front in loopy bright green ink.
