Chapter 53: Spilled secrets

The dreams continued, getting me moments of my past back.

"Oh, my, Theo, but you're gorgeous." The six year old couldn't stiffle her giggles seeing her friend's hair braided and him in a little dress.

"This isn't funny Sel, stop laughing and get me out of this lacy trap!"

"Oh, come on, stop ruining my fun."

"For me it's not funny. Please get me out of this. We can go feed the Thestrals if you do." At that, an excited squeal left the girl's mouth and with a wave of her hand, the dress was gone and instead the boy was holding now pieces of raw meat. She linked her arm through his and ran to the Forest, her turquoise hair flowing behind her.

"Ouch, Sel, let go. You know you're giving me electric shocks."

"Sorry, but move faster!"

"Hey, look at your arms!"

"What's wrong with-" she stopped in her tracks when she saw that her arms now had yellow spots on them.

"What's up with that? I have a friend my mom presented me that has spots like that too. But they change colors."

"I know, I've been having them for quite some time, and they change colors too. I think I'll ask Dumbledore about it."

"Good ideea. Then maybe tell me too."

"Ok. Now let's go!"

They reached the Forest in no time, having been effectively next to it in first place. But before they could enter it, two large hands grabbed their shoulders.

"Well, kiddos, whe'e you two goin' ?"

"Well, Hagrid..we-umm-" Theo started

"We were going to feed the Thestrals." Selene stated, her voice steady, chin up, and Hagrid started laughting.

"Ok kiddos, but ya know ya can't go alone. I'll come with you now."

That afternoon had been a fun one, riding the Thestrals and feeding them, until Theo's mom decided it was time for them to go home.

The next days, I couldn't get away from the feeling of dread in the pit of my stomach. Ok, taking into account how well disguised I was, it was rather unlikely that someone recognized me, but what if they heard Blaise? I was too caught up in my thoughts to realize that the way I behaved at the party actually impressed Lucius. Well, at least until I was informed of it.

"Wait, really?"

"Why would I lie to you dear?"

"Well, he doesn't act like it."

"Look," Narcissa sighted as we sat on the wooden bench in their large garden. A pair of white peacocks walked up to a nearby tree." I'm sure you already know that, but Lucius is a very prideful man. He is rather stubborn about his thoughts on muggles and muggleborns. And Gryffindors. He won't show any signs of this until he manages to put his pride aside, and to trust you."

"Trust me with what? Since I arrived here you're constantly talking about him needing to trust me. What is all of this about? What is he hiding?"

"The war…it had a rather unexpected effect on him. But…he doesn't talk to almost anyone of this. You'll see."

"Cissa, I'm afraid" a pair of birds flew from a three two meters away from us. They were beautiful, blue and yellow coloured and just moments ago were filling the air with sweet tones. "what if he finds out and…he won't let me see any of you again."

"He won't find out until you tell him. You're the Girl who lived for Merlins sake! I know you are strong and you can do this Selene. Really, I belive in you. You can't let one person take you down."

"Maybe. I just hope I'll manage to. But how will he react when finding out my brother didn't conquer Voldemort?"

"I really don't know that. But I know for sure he won't hex you as you think. We're grown people. He might be impulsive, but not as much as Draco. Now, how are the dreams?"

"Manageable. Just Theo now. But it won't be all happy memories and kind people when I get back. They'll be back."

"You can ask Madame Pomfrey to give you a Dreamless Sleep potion. Or Severus, I'm sure he'd be glad to help."

"No. They can't know. They'd block them again. I can't wait so much again to find out. It's terrifying, and I can't understand what's so important about it, but I want to find out. No matter how many nightmare memories I need to have until that happens."

She looked shocked. Her lips were slightly apart, eyes wide, and she seemed not to be breathing.

"I'll go now. I have to get ready for lunch. Wouldn't want to keep your husband waiting." I got up and left the garden, heading to my room to change and calm down.

Third point of view:

After some moments, Narcissa composed herself. Was Selene going to let herself tortured by her erased memories of Death eater questionings just to find out what horible secret they kept from her? She got up and followed Selene to the Manor. She was right, they shouldn't keep Lucius waiting.

But kept in their toughts and hurrying to get inside, neither of them noticed a slender figure behind a tree. To say that Lucius Malfoy was confused would be a complete understatement; he was completly baffled. The quiet muggleborn Gryffindor friend of his son was actually the Dark Lord's defeater? And his wife knew about it. Now he was going to test the girl himself. She would see how hard things actually were.

He too walked to the Manor and went to the dining room, where he found Draco. When the girls arrived, Selene looked like the discussion before didn't happen. But there was something different in her eyes...determination.

A/N: So, back to memories again. Thanks for reading.
