Dreams Are Won
DISCLAIMER: I OWN NOTHING!
Here you go. The talk but not the whole talk. Lol.
Chapter seven
The confrontation part one
Harry was finally asleep in the boy's dormitory and Paige/Lily knew it was finally time for her to summon the spirit of Dumbledore and question his antics towards her son. She walked back into her room where Piper and the others awaited her. She nodded her head and softly began a spell to summon Dumbledore.
Slowly a spirit began to materialize before them. Finally, Dumbledore appeared and knew he was going to have to answer some tough questions when he saw Paige/Lily standing before him with questions in her eyes and upon her face.
"Go on and ask your questions, Lily or do you want me to refer to you as Paige?" Dumbledore said gravely.
"Alright, I'll ask since Paige/Lily can't get her thoughts in order. Why in hell did you send my grandson to live with the Dursley's knowing that he was not protected there because of his mother's sacrifice? If anything he should have been sent to us where he was supposed to go." Emily Gilmore ambushed Dumbledore with that full rush of emotional questions.
Dumbledore sighed and knew he had to admit his massive mistake concerning Harry's life. He fully thought that Petunia was Lily's sister. He didn't know that she was really Paige Halliwell and it appears she didn't know either until recently. He wondered how long it would be before he was bombarded with questions from Harry. He figured it would not long before that happened.
"I admit that, that was a wrong move. This it was known in the ministry that Lily was Petunia's sister I thought he'd be better off there. Professor McGonnal and Hagrid both questioned me on that. They didn't want to leave him there. Maybe I should have listened to them."
"Maybe? Paige/Lily questioned with a little bit of anger in her voice. "Yes, Petunia was my sister but she was only my sister by adoption. Did that ever show up in any of the records, no. That family hid things so well that it was ridiculous. I guess I learned from them though, since you didn't know I was alive when you should have." She added as she stared at him dead in the eyes.
Dumbledore knew the massive era of his mistake because it cost Harry a normal life. It was something that he couldn't take back but he wished he could with all his might. "I know I should have investigated your death, especially when we didn't find a body. But I let my emotions cloud my insight and I just got Harry out of there and to the Dursley's. For that I am sorry. I know that, that apology won't change anything but I don't know what else you want me to say." He said sincerely.
With that said, Dumbledore disappeared knowing he would be summoned again soon. "Why'd you let him disappear like that?" Emily questioned Paige/Lily with a tone that definitely said she wasn't happy.
"I let him go for now because I'm not the one he should be apologizing to. Harry is the one he has to say all of that too and explain why he lied to him again and again on the fact that he knew that the Dursley's wasn't my biological family and that he would have been safer from Voldemort in your care, Emily and Richard, since James died for him and I survived." Paige/Lily explained softly as she thought about the emotional time that would be transpiring soon, when Harry was up for it, that is.
Lorelei and Rory looked at each other, still unsure what was going on but they didn't care. They just knew they had to help Harry deal with whatever was about to happen.
Coming: Confrontation part two. But first, Harry will learn that Paige/Lily talked to Dumbledore without him. Will he be upset and angry or relieved that she saw him first since he wasn't sure how to handle everything lately? Also coming will be Ginny confronting Harry with her feelings for him.
