Reason Number Thirty Eight: Lucy Hates Being Annoyed
"Why the hell do I hear screams?" Pricilla asked, as she Lucy and Scorpius were in the backroom of Honeydukes. It was mid November, and their fifth week to go to Hogsmead. That weekend was exactly normal. A trip to Honeydukes, lunch at the Hog's Head and trips at various shops, spending their money like there was no tomorrow.
Lucy and Pricilla sat their selves comfortable on the sweet shop's floor, eating, or as Pricilla would say, testing, out the candy, while Scorpius was leaning against the wall.
He raised an eyebrow, sticking his hand in a jar of blood pops. "Kids are screaming all the time Cilla."
"Very true." Pricilla agreed, dropping several Every Flavor Beans in her mouth, spitting them out instantly.
"No," Lucy said slowly, dropping several beans in her mouth, "I do hear screams."
There was a quick moment of silence, and as the two girls said, they could hear the faint sounds of screams from outside.
"Come on girls…" Scorpius sighed. "Really, I bet you it's just a fight or something."'
Maybe he was right, but he was absolutely not. It was all a rush, they were just hanging out, eating millions of candy when a brown haired, older student frantically ran in, approaching them.
"Get down." He whispered, and they instantly did.
How lucky they were because once they reached the mint colored floor, the wall of the backroom exploded, sending chunks of concrete and rubble everywhere. Several screams echoed from the front room as the older student tried to shield the three.
"Crawl…go…" he ordered, as the inched their way behind a large candy filled shelf.
"What's going on?" Lucy whispered frantically to the seventh year.
"Death Eater attack." He panted, as there were sounds of people scrambling.
Out of the chaos and terror during that room, Lucy looked at him and held out a hand. "Lucy Weasley."
"Lucy…it's me, Teddy." He said, instantly changing into his normal appearance of bright turquoise hair and deep purple eyes.
"You stupid, annoying git." She yelled, punching his arm. "Why the hell are you here?"
"Finding a job." He said in her face and she stuck out her tongue.
"Job? What job?"
"Lucy I can't live on Uncle Harry and Aunt Ginny's salary forever." Teddy snapped, gripping his wand and turned to all three of them. "We need to move."
Taking her hand tightly the four swiftly moved through the shop, dodging spells along the way. Lucy caught a glimpse of the masked Death Eaters, sporting their crisp, black robes as they screamed curses.
"Avada Kedavra!"
"Get down!" Teddy yelled, pulling them to the ground, right before they reached the exit.
Luckily, the spell hit a shelf of jars which shattered sending piercing shards of glass down on them.
"Oh shit move guys, move." Teddy urged pushing them through the door, causing a piece of glass to sink down on Lucy's arm.
Swearing she didn't bother and ran through the streets of Hogsmead as blood ran down her arm.
It was a hell of a mess in the town, people running everywhere, Death Eaters laughing like crazy maniacs as they shot spells like there was no tomorrow.
"Lucy, come here." Teddy whispered, pulling her into a corner, away from all the chaos.
Looking around Scorpius and Pricilla where nowhere in sight. "Where are they?"
"Maybe they got lost in the crowd Lucy." Teddy whispered.
"But they could be dead!" she cried out, about to run back out.
Grabbing her bloody arm he yelled, "No, don't!"
Lucy grimaced in pain, pulling away from his grip and dropped down to her knees.
"I'm sorry." He said softly, going down next to her. "We just need to stay here."
"But for how long?"
"As long as it takes Lucy." He sighed.
"You're so annoying." Lucy muttered looking into his eyes.
"We're in a matter of life or death Lucy!" he snapped. "I have to be annoying."
"Well maybe I don't care!" she yelled, jumping up to face him. "These bloody death eaters don't give a damn about us so why should I even care?"
"Come on Lucy." He whispered, "Be quiet."
"Why? Because people are trying to bloody kill us?" She said, "So what?"
"Why are you being so stubborn?" Teddy demanded. "Do you see what's happening? People could be dying and you don't even care?"
"I don't need an annoying git to help me!" she cried and Teddy narrowed his eyes.
There was an unbearable silence and Lucy could do nothing, but glare at him.
"Well-," she asked, after the seconds of silence. "What is i-,"
It was all rush as he grabbed her, clasping her sweaty hand around her mouth. Lucy tried to scream, hitting and kicking him where ever she could.
"L-Lucy." He struggled, trying to keep her still, "B-be quiet. D-Death Eaters."
The two were dead silent, Lucy breathing hard into his hand as they could hear the snapping of twigs, and loud footsteps heading their way.
"I heard someone." A man grumbled as they approached the corner.
"Sure you did Macnair."
"I did. Now come on."
Squeezing her eyes shut, Lucy held tightly onto Teddy thinking that she certainly would die right there.
"Lucy…" he whispered and she rolled her eyes up to see him. "When I tell you…run."
Nodding slowly, the two were ready to run for it when a blast of green light shot up into the sky.
"That's the sign, go."
With the echoing snaps Teddy let her go, but she continued to hold onto him. They both peered around the corner, to see that the Death Eaters had disappeared, but the town itself was chaos. Everywhere, people were screaming, running out of the way from the many burning building in the town.
"Are you all right?" Teddy asked, grasping her terrified face.
"I-I'm fine Teddy." She whispered, "Thank you for saving my life."
"Any time." He smiled and the two made their way.
Many were scrambling around as Professors were hurrying students back to the school. Teddy, forcefully pulled Lucy away from the dramatic scene.
"Teddy…s-stop! I can walk m-myself!" she cried out, pulling away from him.
"Sorry, but I really just need to make sure your ok." He said softly, once again, quickly pulling her towards the school. "Now please, just move."
As they reached the Great Hall, news somehow spread quickly and parents were already rushing in the Great Hall where everyone was gathering. As the two were trying to make their way through the crowd Harry, hurriedly made his way toward them.
"Teddy!" he exclaimed, "What happened?"
"Death Eater attack at Hogsmead." Teddy said.
"Is everyone all right?" Harry asked, and looked down at Lucy for a second, smiling. "Hi Luce."
"Hi Uncle Harry." She replied.
"No one's dead so far." Teddy answered and they all shared a dreadful silence. The thought of someone dead was the worst possible thing to wonder about.
"Ok, Teddy, Uncle Percy is up in the front. Bring Luce over there." Harry said, before patting his godson on the back and hurrying off.
"Luce?" Teddy asked raising an eyebrow, as they made their way toward the front of the hall. "When did people start calling you Luce?"
"I don't even know." Lucy sighed and was suddenly tightly hugged.
"Oh god…you're alive, you're alive." Audrey sobbed, looking at her as Percy stood above the two, placing a hand on his daughter's shoulder.
"No scratches, bleeding, are you okay-," Audrey asked worriedly and Lucy nodded. "Mum I'm fine."
"No, really sweetie, any bruises, cuts, sprains?" Audrey demanded once again, looking her daughter over.
"Mum I'm fine!" Lucy whined, pulling away as Teddy quietly slipped away.
"Lucy honey, please." Audrey pleaded, pulling her into an empty seat on the Gryffindor table. "Just let me see you."
Reluctantly she let her mother look her over as Percy sat beside them.
"Are you sure your all right Lucy?" he asked, pushing a strand of her golden hair behind her ear.
"Daddy I'm fine." She sighed and looked around. "Where's Molly?"
"In the hospital wing." Audrey said softly. "She broke her leg falling off a flight of stairs."
"What?" Lucy gasped, looking at the both of them. "She broke her leg?"
"But she's perfectly fine honey." Percy assured his youngest daughter. "Madame Pompfrey will get her up within a few minutes."
"Oh god Lucy, your arm." Audrey whispered, grabbing her daughter's bleeding arm. "Perce…"
Softly taking her arm, Percy pulled out the broken pieces of glass and wrapped her thin scarf around it.
"We'll heal it later." He said. "Are you sure your okay honey, nothing happened to you?"
"Daddy, I'm fine." She said, "Really."
Audrey smiled slightly, "Are we annoying you?"
"Yes, you are." Lucy answered. "But really, I'm fine."
Neville approached the three and Percy stood up.
"What's going to happen?" he asked the shaken Professor.
"S-students will be going home for the week." Neville said as many people turned to him, listening. Neville faced them all. "Yes, for a week. You can take them home now, we lifted the apparating boundary."
Instantly, snaps and pops where echoing and little by little, people were dramatically disappearing from the Great Hall. As few families, the Wealseys, Potters and several others were left, it was almost dinner time.
"Do you want to go home?" Percy asked his wife.
"But Molly-," Lucy started.
"She'll be fine here for now." He answered and turned back to Audrey. "Well?"
Hesitating slightly, she nodded. "Let's go."
When they arrived, Sadie and Reggie attacked Lucy.
"Hi!" she cried, kneeling, allowing the two to start licking her face.
"Lucy, do you want dinner?" Percy asked as Audrey made her way to their room.
"Daddy, you don't cook." Lucy said, heading to the kitchen with him.
"I can try." He smiled.
"You can try." She started, "But fail at the same time."
"Your nice." he said, ruffling her hair.
"And your annoying!" she said and for a second he raised an eyebrow.
"Excuse me?"
"Just kidding daddy."
The moment could have been sweet, if it weren't for Audrey's sudden scream upstairs.
