SECRETS OUT

"Dad… How ya doing?" Scorp put on his best happy face.

"You and me, we need to have a talk." Draco looked menacing, and Albus saw how he could have been the school bully.

"I already know where babies come from!"

"SHUT UP! I'm really pissed here! EXPLAIN-"

"Really? Your pissed? I couldn't tell."

Albus and his father sent each other a look. The area in the kitchen soon got chilly, and the other father and son in the room entered a very Malfoy-like conversation.

Draco's eyes narrowed. "I'm in no mood for your sarcasm."

"You said you found sarcasm endearing in a person."

"That was directed toward your mother. I have a huge distain for sarcasm in others. I can't believe you inherited that from her."

"Like I can help it."

"It's not working."

"Excuse me?"

"This whole 'I'm going to ramble about nothing so my father forgets why he is angry with me' thing. I see right through you."

"That's not creepy at all."

"Want to explain yourself?"

"No."

"What?"

"I don't want to explain anything. In fact, the only reason I'm in the situation is because of him!" Scorpious sent an accusing look at Albus.

"Hey, I'm glad Albus did what he did. I can now punish James, and can fix his mistake. We are searching for the counter-spell!" Harry added.

"That spell better be found." Draco added, fiercely.

Draco sent a downcast look to his son, and then a fatherly look to Harry.

"I'm going to go speak privately with my son, please go about your normal business."

Harry silently nodded. He ushered Albus out of the room.

"Malfoy is going to kill you… I can't believe you did that. James, we are all going to laugh at your funeral-" Ron was cut off by his wife.

"James you won't be killed. But we are all very disappointed with you. Magic is used for good, not bad, after all-" Hermoine was cut off by Ginny.

"RON IS RIGHT. I WILL BURY YOU ALIVE AND DANCE ON YOUR FREAKIN' GRAVE! I'M EMBARRESED YOU EVER CAME OUT OF MY WOMB!"

"EW! Mom!" James cried, banging his head on the table.

"YOU WILL FIX THIS!" Ginny screamed.

Harry Potter and Albus re-entered the scene. "Yes. Yes you will." Harry spoke. His voice was dangerously threatening, even though he was smiling.

A few hours flew by and soon James' death sentence was slowly calming down. The situation was now a taboo, and no one really spoke. They expected that sometime soon Draco would-

"POTTER! YOU HAD BETTER HAVE A COUNTER-SPE-!"

Unfortunately for the Potter and Weasly gang, they where in the midst of dinner, and Draco was a knack at getting the attention of the entire hotel staff and residents.

Draco had enough sense to stop mid-word. After all, shouting "SPELL" in an all-muggle area wasn't the way to go.

"FATHER! Get out!"

Every resident's head turned to see Scorpious Malfoy, whom had rushed into the room, grabbed his father's arm, and shakily stuttered, "M-my dad, much like me. Is insane. So~"

Everybody's head turned back to their meals, or their work.

"Really?" Teddy said, exasperated. "Are these people so normal around here, their insanity goes… unnoticed."

"Oh, believe me. THE INSANITY is just beginning." It was Ember.

Knite, who was across the restaurant, felt the need to barge in on the conversation as well. "You have to deal with an angry Draco!"

"Release me, son. Or I will kill you." Draco Malfoy practically growled.

"You won't. We are leaving the room." Scorp ushered him out of the room, but not before he yelled, "POTTER! YOU'D BETTER-"

"Speak to him after you finish eating." Harry turned his head to be welcomed by Vix.

"… Alright. James, you'd better be ready with your wand. Your lucky Hermione found that counter-spell."

James gulped. "I'm going to be murdered if I can't pull off this spell…"

"There is a good chance that you will die a long, painful death." Fred nodded his head, pretending to be concerned.

"Can I watch?" Albus chuckled.
