Albus trudged to the door. He didn't have time to change his room back, because he didn't like how his dad would yell at him for underage magic (he had adults in the house so the Improper use of Magic people didn't realize that Albus was doing). So when Albus opened the door, surprised showed on his fathers face for a millisecond then it disappeared into seriousness.
"We need talk"
"I know" Albus brought his father into his mini library and they both sat down at the reading table. "What answers do you want" Albus was pretty prepared for the usual questioning so he added. "And I know that your about to threaten me with some Veritaserum, I'll take it right this very moment if you want me to." Harry was amazed at how mature his 12 year old son was being, even more mature then his 13 year old brother, but most teens are immature.
"OK you don't need it, but just promise me you'll tell the truth"
"I promise" Albus said.
"Good, now why didn't you tell me that you where friends with Scorpius Malfoy?"
"I just figured you would react badly, you and mum always say how you guys and Draco never got along as kids."
"Yes your mother and I didn't get along with him, but that's not why I reacted badly, I reacted that way because you didn't get my permission before bringing him in here."
"Well you don't have to worry about Scorpius anymore because we are no longer friends."
"Because?"
"Well, erm- can we skip that question, I'll answer that later"
"Fine, why is Teddy ignoring you?"
"How would I know? I actually thought that you would you know that answer."
"I don't see why I should you know that answer. Anyway why where you being reluctant to be with-"
"Albus, she's starting to-" Harry cleared his throat loudly. "Hello Harry, anyway, Albus she's starting to wake up, so if you'd like to come in then you can." Harry was getting annoyed that Padma wasn't listing to him, Harry had know her when they where at school.
"Albus," His father said "What's Padma doing here? And what does she mean 'She's starting to wake up'?"
"Dad in a minute I'll explain, just come in here." Albus dragged his father into the medical room.
"LILY!" Harry saw lily and ran straight for the bed in. "What's going on here, Albus?" Harry said suspiciously at Albus. His father usually would believe him. Albus looked over at Padma and Parvati, and they understood that he needed to be alone. "Albus?" Harry said dangerously.
Albus sighed. He knew Albus was asking about Lily, but he was gonna try to avoid the subject, so he answered another one of his fathers unasked questions. "I hired Padma as a Healer and Parvati is here perfection potions brewing, Hermione teaching them." Albus had to add the Hermione part so that Harry wouldn't think Albus is teaching them.
"That answer's that question, but you know what I meant. Why is Lily here, and like this?"
"Well that takes us to the question to why im no longer friends with Scorpius."
"HE DID THIS?"
"Yes im really not sure of the full story, I wasn't out there when it happened but I think I know what happened. Lily was reading some of the books in the library, and Malfoy snuck up from behind and told her to tell him where I was she refused so he erm- did an Unforgivable Curse.
"WHAT? WHICH ONE?"
"Crucio" Albus said in a small voice, hoping his dad wouldn't hear him, but his dad did.
"IM GONNA KILL MALFOY!"
"DAD! Calm down, Malfoy doesn't even remember that he did that to lily, or where we live."
"How'd he forget?" Harry was trying his best to calm down.
"I used Obliviate."
"YOU USED MAGIC!"
"Yes"
"You do know you could get me fired?" Albus really didn't see how this was relevant to any of this.
"How could it get you fired?"
"Albus, I'm an Auror, I fight Dark Magic, and its happening in my house, then Obliviate, there gonna start to get suspicious. HOW COULD YOU LET THIS HAPPEN ALBUS!"
"Wh-Whats going on?" Albus knew Lily had been awake the whole time, but she just let Albus explain, but once she started to realize that things where about to get bad she 'woke up'.
"Lils you're OK!" Albus jumped up. Harry was too much into yelling and glaring at Albus to notice.
"Daddy? You OK?" That seemed to make Harry realize his daughter was ok.
"Lily, Oh baby, your ok! What happened pumpkin?" Lily looked at Albus as if asking 'Do I tell him?' Albus nodded. He was also egger to here the full story. Lily started to explain. Albus was right about everything. The only thing different was that Malfoy had entered though Albus' window.
'Then Padma gave me 2 potions. She said that one was a Calming Drought and the other was a Sleeping Solution that only lasted for a few minutes." Harry smiled at Lily, and then looked at Albus.
"Ok Al, now I want a full explanation of what's happened for the past few weeks, starting from the brining Malfoy into this house!" Albus was in a good mood. He was happy that Lily was fine. He took off with the story. He reenacted some of it. Lily and Harry both where laughing at some parts. They laughed when Albus told them that Luna had let him and Malfoy free from the ropes. Once Albus got to the Leaky Cauldron part, he said it all really fast. Though he did reenact the part where Malfoy threw water all over him, and then finished it extremely speedy. When Albus hit the 'Rats Poop' part Albus practically skipped half the words he was saying it so fast. He made sure to add that he didn't know why he had said it and that he was really sorry. Harry didn't even react badly. Albus stopped there because Harry knew the rest.
"Anyway, where's mum?"
"Oh yes, your mother said that when your ready, come downstairs,"
"Who's down there?"
"Your mother, James, Ron, Hermione, Rose, Hugo, Luna, and Teddy."
"Teddy?"
"Yes Teddy."
"Well I guess im ready. You ready to go downstairs Lils?"
"Sure." They both helped Lily up; she was not really wobbly at all. The three of them walked downstairs.
Authors Note: I dont really know what to think of this chapter. This is just a long way of saying how Albus and His Dad are no longer mad at each other i guess. As for the Veritaserum, the kids get threatened with it alot (thanks to James) though they dont ever give it to them (because frankly they dont have any) Sooooo anyway Review :D
