A/N: Hi guys. I felt bad about leaving the other chapter so late, so I wrote this one for you as soon as I could. (Gets shoes thrown at her)
After the lovely shower, which saved both water and time, Harry and Draco made their way down to Hogsmeade where Remus Lupin was waiting for them.
"Remus!" Harry threw himself at the small man. Harry looked as though he was going to plough through Remus, but instead Remus picked Harry up and squeezed the younger man's shoulders.
"How have you been Harry? Not getting into too much mischief?"
"Well, you must've heard about…" Harry swept his hand, gesturing to Draco. Harry watched in fascination as Draco came over and shook the werewolf's hand.
"It's a pleasure to meet you again, Mr. Lupin." Harry supposed that Remus also saw through Draco's lie because Draco had been one of the main students lobbying for the termination of Remus' employment.
"Likewise, Mr. Malfoy. I suppose I should tell you to call me Remus as well, considering you're much like a son-in-law." The question was dangled in the air, and both Draco and Remus knew there would never be any chance of that.
Draco smiled demurely "Well, I'll just let you two talk, shall I?" Turning to Harry, he said "If you need me, I will be in either Zonko's or Honeydukes."
Harry watched Draco walk into a nearby shop and then abruptly turned back to Remus.
"What do you think of him?"
There was an awkward pause.
"Harry, I think you should step carefully with any Malfoy, but at least he tried to be polite."
Harry frowned. "You don't care that he's, well, a he?"
"No, I don't." Remus looked down at Harry with a serious face. "You never picked up on the vibes from me or Sirius?"
Spluttering, Harry looked down at the ground. "You mean you and Sirius…?"
"A long, long time ago Harry. Yes, we were in a relationship. But his fling with Debbie Reynolds was something too big to overlook. Of course we stayed friends, but things were never the same. After James and Lily… you really don't want to hear about it, Harry. It will only make you think about the bad memories. Focus on your future, with Draco. Look forward."
Indeed Harry did look forward, and the shock that befell him made him almost scream in shock.
There, in the middle of the day in Hogsmeade, were Death Eaters.
A/N: Yeah I wrote this instead of my debating argument. Bad Alice, BAD! Debate is in two days haha. WOOHOO cliffhanger. Yeah review review review! And once again, I'm so sorry it's short. I have written the LAST THREE CHAPTERS. I hope to get them out within the next week. I can't believe it's almost over! And I don't do sequels, sorry.
