To Siren Celeste,

I hope this letter reaches you well, I am Albus Dumbledore headmaster of Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry. It has come to my attention that you have extensive knowledge in the subjects of Dark Arts and it defence I would like to offer you a job as a part time Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher. The teacher I currently have in the position is unable to teach full time for reasons I cannot explain in a letter.

If you were to take the job you would be required to help teach and teach without assistance, you have to share the responsibilities of marking and planning with your fellow teacher, you will be expected to patrol corridors at night and punish wrong doers without bias.

The pay is 25000 galleons a year and you have all school holidays free. You are allowed to leave the school grounds at any time but it is preferred that you inform myself or the deputy headmistress before doing so for security reasons.

Because you yourself never attended Hogwarts on accepting the job you will have to be sorted so you will have a house when sporting event occur.

If you accept the job please respond to this letter by the end of the week.

Yours,

Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore.

Siren placed the letter back down on the table with a grin on her face this was perfect! She had a way to stay close to both of the people she know cared about like her own children and she could work with them to make sure their education continued the way she wished it to! Dumbledore had offered her one of the best things that had ever happened to her a shame it was so he could manipulate her into something.

She ran her fingers through the hair on the top of Snuffles head as she thought about the best way to get him into the school, she would have to de-age him and make him into a puppy…he was going to love it! Yeah right!

Siren sighed attracting Snuffles attention; the dog lifted his head and licked her chin gently.

"I'm okay Snuffles just trying to work something out." The dog tilted his head to the side in question, "Well if you really want to know I've been offered a job at Hogwarts," Snuffles tail started wagging, "and I want to take you with me but your too big." His tail stopped, "I want to de-age you." She paused and looked the dog in the eye, "Please?"

Snuffles tail started wagging again.

"You don't mind?" the tail wagged harder and Siren smirked, "So lets get started!"

)0(

It was the middle of August and Harry and Hermione had refused Ron's invitation to meet him in Diagon Alley due to the contract they had discovered at Gringots. Siren hadn't told her two young charges about her new work arrangement as she wanted it to be a surprise.

The four residences of Shadows Cove were currently outside in the sunlight wands out; Siren was trying to teach them the patronus charm. Hermione was having trouble with it; she was younger than the last time she had learnt it and her magical core was smaller so it was even harder now than it had been when she was a member of the DA.

Harry had his eyes closed as he tried to find his happiest memory while Siren was sitting on the ground leaning on Snuffles who was watching his Godson with great interest. The boy huffed exasperated as his memory failed to even produce a white mist. Siren smiled at him as he sat beside her for a rest and with a wave of her wand she summoned some cool lemonade from the fridge. A silver tray bearing a huge glass jug, three tall glasses, bucket of ice, charmed never to melt, and a white dog bowl flew to land on Siren's lap.

Siren placed the bowl on the ground and filled it with a wordless spell.

Harry took a glass gratefully and gulped it down. He sent it back on the tray and the jug immediately rose into the air and re-filled it. Siren grinned as Harry grabbed the glass again and downed it once more.

Hermione dropped onto the ground beside her boyfriend and nodded in thanks as he passed her the second glass. Once both teens had stopped drinking like they hadn't seen a liquid for a week Siren placed the tray on the ground.

"I think I might be able to do something to help." Siren stood and brushed off her jeans. The two teens watched intently, Snuffles lifted his head from the ground to watch as well. Siren twisted her wand and yelled:

"Expecto patronum!" the silver monster that erupted from her wand was unexpected but the fact that a silver lead still attached it to her was even more so, even Harry knew (after Hermione had forced him to sit down and read the books Siren had provided on the subject) a patronus was independent of the caster no matter who or what either of them were which meant that Siren was doing yet another impossible thing…Hermione was beginning to expect them now. The patronus its-self seemed unable to pick a form to take, at the moment it was shifting between two canine forms: a wolf and a large dog.

"That's new." Siren muttered. She jerked her wand and the silver 'lead' snapped. The patronus started at her like she had murdered its best friend, it settled into a dense cloud of silver mist with two piercing eyes before floating to hover over the two teens.

Harry sighed as he felt Siren's positive emotions wash over him like a warm bath and judging by the matching sigh Hermione produced; she felt the same. Harry stood and the cloud rose to prevent him coming into contact with his skin. Harry raised his wand and a silver mass shot out of it. It was a stag. The magnificent animal cantered around the training field before moving towards Snuffles. The dog stood as the stag approached and both Hermione and Siren knew what was running through the dog-man's mind: 'Prongs'.

Both women sighed as the glowing stag passed them, it paused a moment and nuzzled the side of Hermione's face making her giggle. The stag turned to Siren and bowed its head in respect and, they later decided, thanks before continuing on to Snuffles.

The dog and the stag stared at each other before the dog bowed his head, a single tear falling from one eye that no one but Siren spotted. Snuffles whined and the stag lowered its head to nuzzle the hound before turning and walking back to Harry. The boy held out his hand to pet the beast but it faded before he could make contact. Harry let out the breath he didn't realise he had been holding before turning to Siren who was smiling at him proudly.

"That's my boy." She ruffled his already messy hair before realising her own patronus was still there.

Hermione had noticed too and seemed to be gearing herself up before raising her wand. A silver streak cut across the field before doubling back to her, it floated in front of her face and Hermione smiled as she saw the familiar otter swimming around her head.

Siren waved her wand once more and her patronus vanished, the tray with the drinks on flew back into the house and Snuffles suddenly found himself smelling much nicer than before. Siren smirked as the dog-man tried to work out what she had done to him.

"Time for lunch." They followed her back inside and sat at the bar. Siren placed a plate of sandwiches in front of each of them, except Snuffles who got a bone on the floor to make him jump down from the bar to eat it (he had mastered sitting at the bar the other day and continued to do it whenever he got the chance), and a jug of water with glasses.

All four of them began to eat quickly.

"Hey Siren," the woman looked at Harry as he spoke, "how did you know to put a stag on my watch?" Siren sat back in her chair.

"Harry I'm not-" Hermione cut over her.

"When do we start our animagus training?" she demanded, trying to stop Harry asking anymore future related questions. Siren scowled at the girl but decided that until Harry asked again she would keep her mouth shut.

"After lunch." Siren answered as she picked up her empty plate and moved towards the sink to wash it.

"Oh!" Hermione exclaimed. This was something she had never done in the future but something she had always wanted to do, "I wonder what form I will take?" she muttered almost to herself.

"No one really knows beforehand," Siren explained as she accepted the plate Harry handed her and washed that as well, "Thank you Harry, becoming an animagus is very dangerous and the way we are doing it is illegal."

"Why?" Harry asked. Snuffles, who was watching the conversation very carefully, wagged his tail at the thought of his Godson following in his footsteps.

"When you successfully transform we aren't going to register you."

"Why?" Harry asked again.

"Because the less people who know about it the better. You can't really hide as an animal if everyone knows you can change into it, can you?"

"Well no." Harry blushed slightly.

"See." Siren wiped her hands dry before turning to face them and leaning back on the counter. "Did you read the books I gave you about Occlumancy?" Siren received nods from both of her charges, "Good. Go and get comfy in the living room, separate chairs please," she added quickly, "I'll be through in a moment." The two teens left the room and seated themselves in different chairs.

"Did you really read the books Harry?" Hermione asked.

"Yeah, I've always wanted to be someone else but that never worked out for me did it?" he gave a short humourless laugh, "At least now I can try something else."

"Harry." Hermione muttered quietly, "I'd never ask you to change Harry." Harry smiled at her but a shadow still remained in his eye.

"Okay kids!" Siren bounced into the room holding a large book, "Let's get this show started!" She sat cross-legged between the two sofa's the teens had chosen, "Occlumancy and finding your animal form have the same basic principles to start the practice so we're going to do both at the same time your physical training will continue but will be toned down; you are going to be mentally exhausted after every one of these sessions until you can completely organise your mind. Okay, let yourself relax and close your eyes, I want you to picture a ball of light it can be any colour and any size you just have to be able to see it."

Hermione took a sudden deep breath as she felt her magic react to what she was seeing in her minds-eye, it had started as a fist sized ball of pinkish light but had slowly morphed to a deep blood red the size of a coconut before continuing to grow even further to the size of a large cat.

"Focus on the light," Siren spoke quietly so as not to disturb the teens, "that is your magical core don't expect it to look the same next time we do this: you're core is a part of you, evolving and changing to match who you are and who you will be."

Harry could see only darkness, there was nothing there. He was about to open his eyes when he saw something pulse in the distance. He walked towards it before realising he hadn't moved at all his mind had simply rearranged its self to suit his needs. He was standing in front of what he assumed to be his core it was a bright blue and the size of a lion but the farthest edge from him was tinted a sickly green colour, like it was diseased. Harry watched as his core rotated in front of him to give him a better look at the green sickness.

"What is it?" he asked himself, his voice echoing across his so far empty mind.

"How should I know?" another voice asked. Harry span around and came face to face with a man and woman standing side by side, the man was like an older version of Harry messed up hair, glasses and all while the woman had red hair, an angelic face and Harry's eyes. They had their arms wrapped around each other's waists. It was the man who had spoken and he was now smiling crookedly at Harry.

Harry blinked. Once. Twice.

"Mum? Dad?"

)0(

Siren stopped talking as both teens slumped a little in their seats. She watched them for a moment to make sure that they were completely under.

"Good luck." She whispered.

)0(

Hermione reached out to her core only for it to move away from her like a scared animal, she moved slowly to her knees trying to make herself look as small as possible and held out her hand, determined to make her core come to her.

)0(

"Not quite son." The man who looked exactly like James Potter answered.

"We are the remnants of a spell cast by Lilly Potter on the 31st of October 1881." The woman explained, "We are the memories of your parents and their personalities but we are not really them."

"The spell," James continued, "meant that we would be dormant until you discovered your magical core under Padfoots' teachings so we could…" Harry interrupted.

"Who's Padfoot?"

Lilly frowned.

"Sirius Black, you were meant to be raised by him after our deaths."

Harry snorted.

"Dumbledore placed me with the Dursleys."

"The Dursleys?" Lilly shrieked.

Harry didn't answer and the woman started to pace, fuming. Both James and Harry waited until she calmed down a little before talking again.

"Harry maybe you could let us look at your memories?" James suggested, "So we can get up-to-date."

Harry nodded.

)0(

Hermione was surrounded by her core, it had formed an armchair for her to sit in after a short while and the teen took her seat. Hermione waited to see if Siren would give her anymore instructions but when the woman's voice was still missing after a few minutes Hermione stood and started pacing.

)0(

James and Lilly Potter sat on a sofa Harry had created in his mindscape and stared at their son. The young man was sitting opposite them silently waiting for them to speak.

"You've had an interesting life." James tried to joke. Lilly slapped him over the arm, "Ow!"

Harry cracked a smile.

"Well you were meant to discover us as soon as you could under Padfoots teachings," James was frowning as he spoke, "and he was never our secret keeper! He should never have been placed in Azkaban for anything!" Lilly calmed her husband down as she watched her son with tears in her eyes.

"Sirius is out now though." Harry explained, "He broke out, Siren explained who he was and that the Ministry thought he was after me but she said that it was more likely he was after Peter Pettigrew and said something's in the case never added up in the first place and that Sirius never got s trail either!" Harry paused for breath, "Then she went and adopted this great big black dog for me on the same night she saved me from Duzkaban-"

"Duzkaban?" Lilly asked sharply.

"The Dursleys." Harry explained. There was a small pause before James started chuckling. Lilly gave him a disapproving look, "I thought I gave you my memories?" Harry asked the pair.

"Apparently not all of them," Lilly frowned, "It'll be easier once you master Occulmancy."

"Oh."

James grinned at his son.

"Now tell us more about this Hermione."

)0(

Hermione opened her eyes slowly and blinked in the harsh light coming through the Shadow's Cove Cottage windows.

She groaned as she raised herself onto her elbows. She spotted Harry on the other sofa smiling slightly in his sleep. Hermione stood slowly and staggered out of the room following the smell of coffee, bacon and eggs from the kitchen.

Siren was standing with her back to the door leaning over a cookbook with a mixing bowl in her left arm as she stirred with her right, flour was covering the back of her shirt in great white paw prints and Snuffles was locked outside with a spell. Hermione chuckled lightly as she saw the dog's puppy eyes directed at Sirens deliberately turned back.

Siren turned to face Hermione as she heard her laugh, the woman's face was covered in flour as well, the glasses were gone and her hair hung into her face sloppily, the apron she was wearing which kept changing between kiss the cook and you really let this crazy lady in the room with the sharp objects? You deserve what you get mate!

"Have a nice nap?" She asked as Hermione walked to the bar, sat and dug into one of the plates of food (bacon and eggs) that Siren had left sitting there. Hermione nodded rather than speaking.

Siren grinned before turning and picking up a packet of chocolate chips from the counter and pouring the whole thing into whatever dough she had in the bowl.

"Harry'll be up soon as well I suppose." Siren mused as she mixed up her bowl.

"What are you making?" Hermione asked after taking a long drink of water from the glass that had a appeared next to her plate.

"Chocolate chip ice-cream." Siren grinned as Snuffles whined from outside. Hermione grinned as well.

"Brilliant."

"What's brilliant?" a tired Harry asked as he walked into the room.

"Ice-cream." Was all the explanation needed, both of them were still youngsters after all.

)0(

The next day Siren had them repeat the process but told them after finding their core to try and organise the space, anything they wanted could appear there so they had freedom to do what they wanted but they had to place protection around their cores, Siren left it up to them what 'protection' meant.

She also explained that they wouldn't be physically trying the animagus transformation until they were at least a year older, they were however permitted to try and find their forms by organising their minds properly.

It was now halfway into the last week of the holidays and Siren knew that the teens would need to get their school equipment soon. Siren was making pancakes with her apron firmly stuck on you really let this crazy lady in the room with the sharp objects? You deserve what you get mate! When Harry and Snuffles walked passed her and out the door on the pairs morning jog; Siren had relaxed the workout routine letting everyone relax before Hogwarts. As the door swung shut behind them Hermione joined that older woman in the kitchen.

"I'm taking you to Diagon Alley today for your school stuff so make sure you have your list." Siren advised.

"Siren," Hermione asked suddenly, "what are we going to do about Peter?" Siren stopped what she was doing and turned to face the witch in front of her.

"Whatever we have to."

"We need a plan!"

"I have one." Siren told her, neither woman noticing the creak of the stairs outside as a boy and his dog returned.

"What?"

"I'm a boggart Hermione," Siren pointed out, "at the moment his worst fear has got to be having someone recognise him or Sirius finding him for revenge after his betrayal of the Potters, yes?" Hermione nodded, "so all I have to do is resume my natural form and scare the crap out of him while you trap him and then restore him to his normal form, preferably with witnesses nearby so we don't make the same mistake as you did in the past."

"That wasn't really my fault!" Hermione insisted, "Sirius dragged Ron under the Willow and we had to follow!" Siren chuckled.

"I wasn't blaming you but it's best not to remake the mistakes of the past, eh time-girl?"

"Time-girl?" Hermione repeated.

"Eh," Siren waved her hand dismissively, "I'm still working on it."

"Well I am a time traveller." Hermione reasoned.

"Maybe I should call you The Doctor!" Siren exclaimed only to be met with Hermione's blank look.

"Who?"

"Exactly!"

"What?"

"Huh?"

Hermione sighed before asking:

"Who is the Doctor?"

"You don't know the Doctor?" Siren looked like Hermione had just skinned live puppies, "What are they teaching kids in school these days?" Siren muttered.

"Hey! Not all of us are thousand year old magical creatures like you!"

"Good point." Siren chuckled, "Good point."

Snuffles pushed open the door with his nose and walked straight to Siren before sitting and eyeing her with a reproachful look. Siren glanced between the dog and the black haired boy that had followed him. Harry looked angry. Siren realised what had happened only a few seconds before Hermione.

Both male members of the household stared at them.

"Were you ever gonna tell me?" Harry asked quietly. Hermione looked ashamed.

"She wasn't permitted to," Siren muttered bitterly, "neither was I. It was one of the rules of sending us both back." Siren stopped talking suddenly and clutched her throat, her mouth moved wordlessly for a moment before she fell to her knees.

"Siren!" both teens cried out and ran towards her. Siren held up her hand to stop them and vanished in a flash of white light Before reappearing on the other side of the room.

"What was that?" Hermione demanded when Siren got her breath back.

"My punishment," Siren spat, "For telling Harry what's going on."

"What?" Harry demanded.

"I knew something would happen if I told you what I was, I just didn't expect it to be this bad."

"Oh." Harry wasn't quite sure how to answer that.

"I'll try and tell you the rest, sit down."

)0(

"Wow," James Potter stared at his son, "she's a Boggart?"

"Your girlfriends a time traveller?" Lilly asked at the same time.

"Yes." Harry threw himself down on the couch that was now permanent fixture in his mindscape.

"Wow." James muttered again.

"What should I do?" Harry asked, looking lost.

"Do you trust her Harry?" Lilly asked as she sat beside him.

"I don't kn-"

"Harry," James sat on the boy's other side and wrapped his arm around his shoulders, "do you trust her?"

"Yes." He didn't even have to think about it really; he loved Hermione, he knew that, and Siren was slowly becoming the mother he'd never had a chance to have but for them to keep such a big secret from him….

"They didn't have a choice, remember?" James had followed his sons train of thought, "You saw first-hand what happened when Siren tried to tell you about what she is."

"She almost died." Harry muttered.

"Exactly." Lilly squeezed her son's shoulders.

"And if she's willing to risk that to tell you the truth…" James let his son complete the thought.

"Then she must care about me." Harry finished grinning.

"That's ma boy." James smiled proudly.

"Harry," Lilly spoke softly, "Siren see's you as her son and not matter what happens or what you do, I am so glad you get to have that in your life, and if you want Harry you can call her mum."

)0(

Hermione and Siren were sat on stools at the bar both with their heads in their hands as they waited for Harry to come back and tell them he was going back to the Dursleys just to get away from them. They both jerked to attention when the door opened showing Harry with Snuffles by his side. The two females shifted nervously as they entered the room compelety.

"Can you answer some questions?" Harry asked quietly. Hermione nodded quickly and Siren sighed in relief; he was willing to listen!

"Of course." Siren gestured at the stool next to Hermione and Harry took it without hesitation making Hermione grin like it was Christmas, "What do you want to know?"

"Why did Hermione have to come back?"

"You died." Hermione answered him quietly, "It was our seventh year and you had just managed to defeat Voldemort, killing him forever, but you died too. Ronald," Hermione spat the name out, "had been dosing us with love potions for years, himself for me and Ginny for you, he was under the impression that we belonged together. He…He took me away from your….b…..body and tried to rape me." Harry pulled his silently crying girlfriend into a hug, she continued to cry onto his shoulder as she continued the story, "Luna Lovegood saved me, she started school this year in Ravenclaw, she's a good friend. Luna sent me back to just after I woke up from been petrified and Siren was there waiting for me to wake up."

Siren took over the story after sending a fond smile Hermione's way.

"I told Hermione what had happened, what I was and the rules that I was aware of so we could be safe. I explained her bond with you also."

"Bond?" Harry asked feeling a blush coming on.

"Bond," Siren grinned at him, "it's like you share a soul, not soul bounding; that is two different souls that are more powerful together and through all of their reincarnations have been together in a romantic sense, like me and my mate," Siren sighed, "for you and your mate, in this case Hermione, it's slightly different you share a soul that became separated due to uncontrollable circumstances and now you are trying to return to one another to be whole."

"Your mate?" Harry asked. Snuffles settled his head onto Siren's lap, sighing.

"My mate, I don't even know who he is Harry, I've waited for over a thousand years to meet him. I can never be with anyone else but there's no way for me to tell who he is until we kiss." Siren paused before pulling out her wand and laying it on the table, "The only clue the Founders gave me was my wand," Snuffles jerked out of her lap suddenly and ran his nose along the stick of wood, Harry picked it up to study the runes carved into its surface, "they mean One Half Of The Whole."

"So your mate should have a matching wand?" Hermione asked taking the wand from Harry gently.

"Yes." Siren took the wand back and put it away.

"A thousand years?" Harry repeated.

"Longer if you count the time I was only a Boggart."

"Wow." Harry stared at her, shell-shocked.

)0(

They put off their shopping trip until the next day as Harry and Hermione wanted to spend as much time together as possible, Siren went up to her room and looked herself inside while Snuffles lay on the floor outside of her door whining every few moments.

Snuffles knew who owned the wand that was the perfect match to Siren's; Snuffles knew exactly where it was as well.

Siren left her room in time to make lunch the next day and found Hermione, Harry and Snuffles all sitting in the living room an official looking letter on the table in front of them unopened.

"What's this?" she asked as she sat on the sofa beside Harry, placing him between herself and Hermione.

"It's from Gringots." Hermione handed the letter to Siren, "It's addressed to Advocate Lady Siren Potter." Siren's eyebrows disappeared into her hair as she opened and read the letter.

"That's interesting." Siren placed the letter in her lap.

"What's interesting?" Harry asked.

"Remember how the Goblins said that the Weasley family had your key? Well it seems that one Ronald Billibus Weasley tried to make a withdrawal from your trust vault. The Goblins stopped him of course but it does mean that Molly will soon be trying to rope you into visiting so she can have another key made." Siren frowned before shaking her head in a disappointed manner, "We'll go to the Alley tomorrow for your school things." Siren stood, taking the letter with her. Snuffles stood as if to follow her but paused and turned back to face his Godson and his girlfriend who were whispering together about what Hermione could remember about their third year. Sirius sat back down; he had to know what he was up against.

Hermione glanced at the black dog that she knew was Sirius Black and wanted to slap him, how was she supposed to break the news to Harry that his Godfather was sitting in the room while he was sitting in the room! She wanted Sirius to tell him himself but it looked like the dog was more than willing to just sit and wait it out.

)0(

Harry James Potter watched as the two most important women in his life prepared for their trip into Diagon Alley.

Hermione, his girlfriend (it still gave him happy chills to think that), was checking and re-checking her book list, she already knew all the information because she had already completed most of her schooling but she wanted to be there for Harry and it would be quite a bit harder for her to if she didn't continue to attend Hogwarts not to mention it would be suspicious in the extreme.

Siren was trying to convince Snuffles to stay behind at the Cove but the excitable animal downright refused and hence was constantly under everyone's feet. Siren finally seemed to give up and Harry laughed as Snuffles bowled her down and licked her face for all he was worth. Harry wasn't sure what to think about Siren anymore, he knew that she saw him as a son and would do nearly anything for him but it had taken a while for that fact to sink in and several chats with the version of his birth mother inside of his mind before he accepted it. Lilly did seem happy that her son was finally getting the love and care she thought he deserved and was quite eager to try and find a way to communicate with the Boggart-turned-woman to learn more about her.

"Ready to go?" Siren asked as she managed to get a collar and lead on Snuffles.

"Yep!" Harry said cheerfully as he jumped up from the chair he had been lounging in.

Hermione turned from the bookcase and smiled an affirmative.

"Brilliant." She held out her arms for the two teens to take while Snuffle planted himself against her side. Siren turned and the group were sucked into the tube that was side-along apparition.

They landed inside the courtyard at the back of the Leaky Cauldron, Siren handed Harry Snuffles lead and shifted Hermione's grip on her arm so it rested on Harry's instead as she walked forward and drew her wand. Siren tapped the bricks and the archway opened to magical London.

First stop was Gringots where they travelled to Harry's trust vault and got the money needed for supplies, Hermione went with Harry while Siren and Snuffles went on another cart to the Potter Family vault.

When the four met back up on the surface Siren's grin almost spilt her face. But when asked she shook her head and told them to wait until Christmas.

They had been to the robe shop, the apothecary and where just leaving the book store when a familiar red-head turned up.

"Harry!" Ron was gasping as he tried to catch his breath, "Mate I gotta tell you something!" Ron led them into a more quiet part of the alley before speaking, "Harry mate I think my mum is using you vault!" Whatever Ron expected Harry to do after hearing that was not what he got.

"I know."

"So you gave her permission?" Ron asked slowly.

"No."

"So what?" Ron snapped. Harry sighed he wasn't sure how he wanted to act around Ron anymore; Hermione had told Harry a watered down version of her time in Hogwarts and the basics of the Horcrux hunt but no details had passed her lips she explained that the only way to avoid whatever would happen to Siren if they broke the rules was for Harry to discover it himself so she gave him the most she could and then sent him off. Harry knew exactly what Ron had done and was probably planning to do in the future but Harry didn't know how much Ron knew at this time or even whether Molly was considering drugging Hermione at this point. Harry really had no idea what to say to his once best friend.

"She was stealing from the Potter vaults I stopped it, end of story." Harry told him harshly. Siren and Hermione where still within hearing range but far enough that the boy had a small amount of privacy. Hermione was using Snuffles to keep a barrier between her and Ron, a job the dog-man was more than willing to do for his godson's mate.

"Stealing….." Ron repeated.

"Yes Ronald stealing." Harry started to walk back to the others but Ron grabbed his arm to stop him.

"I didn't know Harry, I don't think anyone in the family did, but it would explain why Bill and Charlie never come to visit. I saw the shopping list mum had for after she got the money it was all for Ginny and some ingredients for potions." Ron trailed off as Harry glared at him. This time Ron offered no resistance as the-boy-who-lived walked away, "I'm sorry." He muttered as the black haired boy, dog, bookworm and adult vanished in the crowds of the Alley.
