Chapter 7
The next day Dumbledore came to pick up Rose and Harry.
Rose was wearing a simple but nice black dress and Harry was wearing black dress slacks. A white dress shirt and black jacket and black tie. Dumbledore was wearing a dark gray suit it was the first time they had ever see him in muggle clothing. Rose couldn't help but think it actually made him stand out more but maybe that was just her.
Dumbledore took Rose and Harry to the funeral. Marge was standing next to Dudley who was in a wheelchair. Rose went to his other side and took his hand. He looked up at her and she squeezed his hand lightly.
Marge huffed when she noticed them but didn't say anything. They didn't say anything either.
Once it was over Rose hugged Dudley and said "Sorry Dudley. I am sure aunt Marge is taking good care of you. I don't know if we will see each other again. We will miss you."
Harry went over and shook Dudley's hand and said "We only wish you the best."
Marge was glaring at them and Harry took Rose's hand and said "come on Rose it is time to go. Maybe we will see you again Dudley but probably not. Take care of yourself."
Rose and Harry went back to Dumbledore and disappeared in the crowd.
Aunt Marge pushed Dudley's wheelchair to the car and said "How dare those two show up at Vernon and Petunia's funeral. They only always caused them nothing but trouble."
Dudley said "I am glad they came. They only came for me and I don't think I will ever see them again. They had every reason not to come but they came for me."
Marge said "Well as long as they don't make it a habit showing up unannounced like that."
Dudley said "they wont but it was nice they came today. They were the closest thing to a brother and sister I ever had."
Marge got Dudley in the car and took him home.
