Love so Silent
Chapter Fourteen
Year Two
I couldn't wait for summer to be over. It would have been bearable if we had gotten any letter. I expected letters from all my friends. Even Harry didn't get any. I didn't even get any from Snape. I figured I'd get at least one. But not there was nothing.
Did they forget about us or something? I shook those thoughts from my head. They couldn't have forgotten about us. They were probably just to busy. I flopped down onto my bed. Harry was already on his bed doing homework. Being the over acheiver I am I already had it all done.
Left the rest of my summer open. All summer there has been nothing to do. Harry tried to get me to help him but I already did all that. I wasn't about to do it again with him.
I was bored but not that desperate. "The both of you brats get down here," Uncle Vernons voice filled the house. Sighing I got up. Harry quickly stashed his homework under one of the floor boards.
I headed downstairs. As soon as we entered the living room Uncle Vernon started a lecture. "Now I want to review our plan for the evening." I grummbled under my breath.
He shot me a displeased look. "Dudley when the doorbell rings you will get the door and offer to take Mrs. Masons's coat. Petunia you will be waiting for them in the lounge graciously welcoming them to our home. Also compliment Mrs. Mason's dress or somthing. Then we will have dinner. When desert is served thats when I pull out the contract."
Dudley and Aunt Petunia both smiled. Uncle Vernon turned his beady eyes on me. "And what will you two be doing."
"We'll be up in our room making no noise and pretending we don't even exist," I said sarcastically. He nodded.
"That's right and if I here a sound you'll wish you were never born." I smirked but kept my mouth closed. The doorbell went off. Uncle Vernon shooed us off upstairs.
When I got upstairs I pushed open the door to our room and stopped. There on our bed was a bat like creature with huge tennis ball like eyes. "May I take your coats Mr. and Mrs. Mason," Dudleys voice floated upstairs.
"Harry Potter! Eris Potter! Dobby has waited a very long time to meet you two what an honor." I smiled "Erm hello." Harry looked confused as to why he was here?
"Who are you," Harry asked politely. The creature or Dobby gave a toothy grin.
"Dobby just Dobby sir. Dobby the house elf." I gave him a small smile.
"Well Dobby I don't mean to be rude but this isn't a good time for us to have visitors." Dobby looked distressed. Harry noticed and quickly added,"Not that we're not pleased to meet you."
Dobby sniffed from the tears falling down his face. "Dobby has an important message for the Potter twins yes he does." I motioned to my bed.
"Sit and we can talk." Dobby began to wail. Harry jumped to action.
"Dobby please be quiet." Dobby sniffed.
"Never has Dobby been asked to sit down by a witch or wizard."
Harry tried to cheer him up. "Then you haven't met any decent ones haven't you?" Dobby started hitting him.
Then began to shout," Bad Dobby! Bad Dobby!"
Harry begged," Please Dobby stop it." Dobby sniffed and wiped at his tears.
"Sorry Dobby was about to speal ill of his family the one he serves. House elves must punish themselves. We must serve one family until we are freed when our masters present us with clothes." I frowned. I thought the Dursleys were horrible.
Harry sighed. It was about time for the reason why he was here. "So Dobby what news do you have for us," he asked?
"Mr. and Miss. Potter must be careful. There will be a plot this year. A plot to harm Harry and Eris Potter. The both of you must not go back to Hogwarts." Harry instantly started to protest.
"Dobby we can't do that Hogwarts is our home. We don't belong here."
Dobby squeeked," Please listen to Dobby. You-Know-Who will put the two of you in mortal danger peril again." I frowned but Dobby continued to speak. "It is to dangerous please listen to Dobby." Dobby ran over to the lamp and started to hit himself.
I heard someone walking up to stairs. Quickly I pushed Dobby into the closet. "Hush." The doorknob turned. Uncle Vernons pudgy face peeked in.
"Be quiet the two of you or the both of you will wish you were never born."
"You already said that," I said. His face grew red but he slammed the door shut. I went over and opened the closet door. Dobby came tumbling out.
"See this is why we don't belong," Harry said.
"Harry and Eris Potter want to go back to Hogwarts even though their friends don't write to them?" Harry growled. It was obvious now what happened.
"Have you been stopping our letter?" Dobby chuckled nervously.
"Harry and Eris Potter must not be angry with Dobby. Dobby thought if you didn't revieve letters you wouldn't want to go back to school."
"Dobby give them to us," Harry growled. Dobby only shook his head.
"Only if Harry and Eris Potter agree they will not go back to school." I looked at Dobby and began to plead.
"Please Dobby. We need those letters."
"Give us those letter," Harry said. He lunged and managed to grab half the letters. The other half fell to the floor. Harry ran after Dobby. I walked over and noticed a few letters from my friends and Snape.
I opened my friends's letters first. They told me how they're summers were going. After a few letters they began to get worried when I didn't write back. Quickly I wrote them all replies.
Then open up Snapes. The first was from a couple weeks into summer.
Dear Eris,
I hope your summer is going well. How are your aunt and Uncle treating you? Good I hope. How is your Potions essay going? I bet you've got it all done. Please write back as soon as possible. If there is anything you need all you have to do is ask.
Sincerely,
S.S
The next one was sent about a month ago.
Dear Eris,
Why haven't you written back. If this is because of your aunt or uncle do tell me I'll handle them. Write back.
Sincerely,
S.S
I smirked at that. Aunt Petunia and Uncle Vernon are afraid of him. The next one was sent yesterday.
Dear Eris,
Happy twelve birthday. I know your Aunt and Uncle won't celebrate it so I sent you something. I hope you like it.
Sincerely,
S.S
I looked to see a gift. Inside was a book. The last letter was sent today.
Dear Eris,
You haven't been returning any of my letters. I'm lead to believe something has happened to you. For all I know their starving or torturing you. Write back as soon as you get this. If you don't in the next twenty- four hours I will have to come and sort this out myself.
Sincerely,
S.S
I quickly got a my quill and partchment.
Dear professor Snape,
I'm fine. No there not starving or torturing me. There was just some complications with the mail. I loved the gift. Can't wait for term to start! I already got all my homework done. No suprise there.
See you soon,
Eris Potter
I sent it off Harry's owl. Right in time to. Uncle Vernon came up yelling. His face was red. Redder than its ever been. He threw Harry in. I looked down at him and knew that Dobby had gotten us in trouble.
Harry told me what happened. So now they know we can't do magic or we get expelled. I climbed into bed wondering if Uncle Vernon would act on his threat tomorrow.
Another chapter. The begining of second year. Hope you enjoyed! Review!
