Mindless Tears

Chapter 7

Why now does that old man find out? Now of all times to find out that there was someone else in the bloody coffin. Six years have gone by and now is when he wants to put up a search.

The war has been over for three years now. Really pathetic how that snake dies anyway.

A bloody heart attack, of all things. He dies from a fucking heart attack. I guess he was still human in some ways. Really sad too that he died like any other human.

Well, now is when the headmaster decided to cremate the boy's ashes and that's when he finds Colin Creveey's dead body in it. He was shocked and so was the news crew. They wanted to do a special on the ceremony and it became a world wide scandal. They said that they where going to find the original killer/kidnapper and put him to death. I was wondering if they would really do that to their golden boy.

The werewolf was livid when he found out about the unearthing of the grave. He nearly killed me when he came to talk to the headmaster. Of course playing it off like he didn't know a damn thing. I had laughed later and he nearly killed me that time too. Draco had to pry him off me.

Lupin and I have become strange friends and are comforted by each other's company but friends is all we'll even accomplish.

There is a lead but we don't know if it is as good as we thought it was. I think about how we're going to find the boy while I sit in front of my fire.

Draco has stopped taking blood from me since his seventh year. He loves to hunt and does it once a week like he's suppose to. I noticed that he hasn't decided to marry yet. Strange as an aristocrat, such as him, is usually married after their eighteenth birthday. I was but she died after catching a muggle disease. Humans are so delicate and I don't know what my parents where thinking at the time when they arranged it.

I hear a knock at my door and I tell them to enter. I smell Draco's vanilla scent and I smile to know he's returned to Hogwarts. But the scent of the two people I despise and I know Lupin despises them as well walk in.

"Hello Malfoy. I want to know why you have brought in the Weasley's today. I usually don't let in bad tempered people into my living quarters." I say smelling the embarrassment and anger lace the room.

I hear Draco snort as he spoke. "The headmaster told me to bring them to you to discuss our search and find team with Lupin as well."

I growl in the back of my throat at this. "Lupin is in bed trying to get off the effects of the new potion he has to take for his Lycan side. And the answer is no they may not come."

I take a swig from the goblet that is sitting in front of me. I think Gran...Mrs. Weasley thinks I'm drinking alcohol because she voices her mind.

"Sir, just because you're in a sour mood and need to drink just to find Harry I think we should come. The extra hands and eyes will get you far." Her voice irritates me even more as it is.

I turn sharply glaring at the woman. She takes a step back from the look in my eyes. That's it human runaway from me if not you're going to get hurt.

"Mrs. Weasley, if your assumptions where even correct once in your life. I suggest not assuming what I do. Because if you didn't know this a drought that helps me with my migraines that I receive from snort nose brats like you." I say as I stand and glare at the two.

Ronald Weasley's hair is still the same red and nothing has changed in him. He stands at five eight pretty short for a Weasley if I do say so. Hermione Granger, now Hermione Weasley, has the same bushy hair and stands at five three. They haven't changed since their seventh year when they married.

Draco stands off to the side away from the married couple. He has that ever so famous Malfoy sneer that makes me wish that things where better for him. He stands at six three, just like me. His blonde hair is cut short close to his head. He had gotten out of having it shoulder length gelled back or letting it hang around his face. It was a good change for him.

I hear a groan and look over to my bedroom door. There stood Remus Lupin. He was five eleven and his hair was more grey then his brown. His body was well built from all the running around we did during the war. We still train just to keep our wits up. They say that Hogwarts attract the worst kinds of animals. Now we're animals but that doesn't give us too much to deal with.

Mrs. Weasley runs over to him and offers him help. He pushes her gently off and walks over to the couch. He accepts Draco's help and sits on the couch. Mrs. Weasley has a hurt look on her face but we don't care except Mr. Weasley.

"What the hell is all the bloody noise about? I'm trying to get some sleep after last night's moon and I hear all this racket." Lupin grumbles and I sigh. He shouldn't be awake. He was too exhausted from the effects of the potion. It doesn't play nice with first time users but he needed something stronger. He asked me to brew it and I was left with no other choice.

"Sorry Lupin but the Weasleys want to come with us. I said no but they won't listen to reason." I say as I walk over to my kitchen. I pull a glass from the cabinet and get water from the tap.

Lupin sighs as I return giving him the water. "Thanks Sev." He takes a sip and looks over at the Weasleys. "He's right; it's not in the best interest that you two come. Harry might be hostile to you when you do see him." His voice is calm and wise. I smile a small smile as I sit in my armchair.

The Weasleys take it upon them selves to sit on my loveseat. Draco sits next to Lupin.

"Remus, that's not fair to us. We want to help Harry out with all his problems. I know we started out bad before his supposed death but we want to make it up to him." Mrs. Weasleys says as she takes a hold of her husband's hand.

Draco snort and our heads snap to him. "Like you did really well in the hallways to ignore him, or when at the Halloween dance you didn't even notice he wasn't even there. Or how he was pulling his grade up because he didn't have anything to do. No friends to talk to just do schoolwork. I'm sorry Granger but that doesn't make your neglect better by coming with us. He'll hate that you did come." He crosses his arms and crosses his legs like a real Malfoy. I couldn't be more proud.

Carrot top broke first. "Well, at least we're trying to amend the things we did to him. God knows I regret it."

"Then you shouldn't have done it in the first place." Draco retorts back and the couple sinks back in their seats.

I hear Lupin chuckle and I stare at him. There's a smirk on that face of his.

"Fine, I say you can go. But you have to stay out of the way and leave the kids at home. This isn't a vacation and I know you two will probably want no distractions while trying to talk to Harry."

With that said Lupin got up and left the room to my bedroom. He shut the door harder than he intended but it seemed he didn't care. Draco snorts and stands up waiting for the Weasleys to do the same.

They do and with a dumbfounded look they all leave.

I got up and walk over to the bedroom opening the door slowly trying not to disturb the wolf inside.

I see Lupin laying down staring at the canopy top of my bed. I walk over to him and stare down at him.

"Remus, do you need any potions?"

He shakes his head and glances at me. "It will be nice to see Harry chew them up and spit them back out." He grins and I have to laugh at his irony. The two wanted forgiveness while they will get one hell of a wake up call.

"So, when do we leave?"

His question makes me come out of my wonderful images of Potter making the Weasleys sorry they ever came. I sigh, "Tomorrow."
