Chapter 25: Meeting Domingo

Previously

The ginger and brunette looked at each and chased after their younger sister or future younger sister in Luke's case. They chased her down the corridors.

"Whoa, what's going on!" Fred exclaimed.

"Hide me." Delaney said hiding behind her twin surrogate brothers the best she could since she was almost as tall as them.

"Don't even try." Charlie smirked at her.

"Why are you two all wet?" George asked.

"I woke them up by using a water spell when I found them outside of the Room of Requirement."

George nodded and Fred asked "Why were you in the Room of Requirement?"

Delaney didn't reply she just showed them her scars from her detention.

"This was Umbitch's doing wasn't it?" George asked. That surprised Delaney since George was always the more quiet of the twins.

"Yes."

"Why did you get detention?" Luke asked.

"First I defended Cedric's death saying it was a murder and then she turned around and insulted my father and then I left the room not wanting to deal with her racist attitudes. I had detention with her last night and Neville got some Murtlap essence from Hermione. We were in the Room of Requirement and we ended up falling asleep." Delaney finished.

The group blinked in surprise minus Charlie. George recovered first and said, "We should report this to McGonagall or Sprout since she's your head of House."

"Way ahead of you, George." Delaney said.

George nodded and the group followed her to McGonagall's office. Once there they could hear arguing. The voices were very recognizable they were of Sirius, her dad and McGonagall.

"I think you should open the door, I sense there's a group of students outside." Remus said.

Darn her dad's werewolf senses. McGonagall obliged opening the door.

"Professor Weasley, Misters Weasley, Mr. Rollins and Ms. Lupin. What prank did you play now?" McGonagall asked the ginger twins.

"This wasn't our doing this time." George said.

"Mr. Rollins?"

Luke shook his head.

"Ms. Lupin, it was you?"

"That wasn't exactly a prank but I did cast a water conjuring spell on Luke and Charlie when I found them sleeping outside the Room of Requirement this morning when I was walking out with Neville." Delaney told her professor.

"Come in and explain more, Ms. Lupin."

Delaney nodded and said goodbye to the group and walked in. She noticed that Harry was also there.

"So, explain Ms. Lupin."

"I was in the Room of Requirement."

"You found the Room of Requirement, Delaney?" Her dad asked her impressed.

"Actually, Charlie showed me it a few days ago. I had detention with Umbridge last night."

Harry knew exactly why but her dad, McGonagall and Sirius looked quite surprised.

"Why was that, Ms. Lupin?"

"I first defended Cedric's death since he was in my house and despite being older than me we would chat every now and then. Then Umbridge turned around and insulted my dad." Delaney finished looking tearfully at her dad.

"I would've hexed her if I were you." Sirius said.

"Trust me it was hard not to but I decided to go with the less punishable option." Delaney said.

Sirius nodded. He saw his honorary niece's logic but he would've hexed her to oblivion anyway.

"After my detention Neville said that Hermione had given him some Murtlap essence to ease the pain. We went to the Room of Requirement and we ended up falling asleep chastely. We woke up this morning I found Charlie and Luke sleeping outside. I used "Aqua Erecto" to wake them up. They chased after me and I tried to hide behind Fred and George but that didn't work since I'm just as tall as them."

"Can I see the scars, sweetie?" Remus asked her.

She showed her father her scars and his eyes narrowed. How dare Umbridge subject his precious pup to this torture. It was bad enough when Harry was subjected to it.

"She has to be sacked, Minerva!" He exclaimed angrily. No one hurts his daughter and gets away with it.

"I'll have to agree, Remus but who can replace her?"

"I would!" Sirius exclaimed.

"Despite Severus being civil towards me for the most part I doubt he would like you teaching here, Pads." Remus smirked at his friend.

Sirius smirked back him.

"Who else is there?"

"I'm not just suggesting her because she's my girlfriend but I can ask Maggie if she'll take the spot." Remus blushed.

Delaney smirked slightly at her dad. He was so hopelessly in love with the former Ravenclaw witch it wasn't even funny. She could imagine him and Sirius staying up all night chatting about how in love they were with their respective girlfriends. It was a nice scene to picture. McGonagall nodded. They were excused. Delaney was instantly attacked by a red haired missile when she walked out.

"I was worried about you, Delaney."

"I'm fine, Sue." She assured her worried ginger friend.

Susan nodded. The day continued. They sacked Umbridge. Snape was back to substituting for the last two weeks. It was time for Holiday break. Everyone except Percy was home. It was now time for everyone to meet Domingo. There was a knock on the door.

"Sweeties, can you get that?" Molly asked her two daughters.

The two girls nodded and raced to the door. Ginny opened the door to see the guy from the picture. Both her and Delaney stared at him for a second then turned to each other and smirked.

"You two must be Ginny and Delaney." He said his accent strong on both names.

They both swooned silently.

"Oh, you must be Charlie's friend." Molly said interrupting her daughters' silent swooning.

"Yes, Mrs. Weasley. I'm Domingo Gordon." He smiled at her.

"Well, aren't you charming, these is our youngest daughter Ginerva."

"Ginny." She corrected thrusting her hand forward.

"Nice to properly meet you."

"This is my surrogate daughter Delaney."

"Nice to meet you." Delaney said smiling shyly at him. She always reverted back to her shy girl demeanor when she met someone new but especially someone this attractive. I mean she was happily dating Neville and besides the fact that he's more than likely gay or he could be bi like Charlie. Delaney was brought of her musings when she heard a bang in the living room.
