Taylor, Jimithy (yes Jimithy) Cerello,
35 year old, Harvard law graduate, Alexia Lupin walked into her upper east side of New York City office. Alexia's sapphire blue eyes looked a
She walked threw the revolving glass doors. "Hello Gus" she said as she passed Gus, the door man
"Good mornin' Miss Lupin" he responded cheerfully.
Alexia walked off the elevator onto the 7th floor where her office was located.
"Any calls Suzy?" Alexia asked her secretary.
"Naw. . ." She sniffed.
"Alright there Suze" Alexia asked her best friend Suzanne Taylor.
"I'm fine. Jeremy only cheated on me with some trashy, bleach blond," at this she flipped her own brown hair over her shoulder. "Californian model." said Suzy in her thick Brooklyn accent, her voice quivering slightly.
"Oh Suzy, we'll go out ok? We'll get really drunk, it will cheer you right up! Then we can burn all his things" Alexia said nodding with visible sympathy in her voice.
"Ya know ya can't do that! You are a recovering alcoholic! I won't have my best friend throw away years of hard work!" said Suzy exasperatedly.
"Bloody hell! Tell everyone in New York City will you!" Exclaimed Alexia.
"Sorry." Muttered Suzy.
"What are my appointments today?" sighed Alexia.
"Well you only have one." Said Suzy looking in the appointment book. "Wow what a weird name, All bus Dumblealy door."
Alexia went into shock but quickly recovered. "Oh really, how . odd."
"Are you ok?" Asked Suzy.
"I'm fine, just, tell me when he gets here ok." Alexia said and quickly walked into her office.
"Oh god, what can he want?" she asked herself. "Is it Remus? My parents? Oh God"
"Not at all Miss Lupin." Said the cheerful voice of Alexia's ex- headmaster, Albus Dumbledore.
"He's here!" sang out Suzy.
"No kidding I never would have guessed " said a sarcastic Alexia. "Could you maybe leave?" she asked Suzy.
Suzy left.
"Please, sit Professor."
"Who was that charming young lady?" asked Dumbledore.
"Who Suzy? Oh she's my best friend AND secretary" said Alexia. "Pardon me Professor, not to be rude but why are you here?"
"Oh yes-that. Well Miss Lupin as you know, unfortunately, Voldemort has hit the high point of his powers again and-"
"WHAT? VOLDEMORT'S BACK BUT. . . I. . . WHAT?" yelled a shocked Alexia.
"Yes anyway, do you remember 'The Order of the Phoenix' don't you-" Alexia nodded "Well we are putting it back together and we need you in it" Dumbledore explained "Oh yes and it would mean a great deal to the staff if you taught Defense Against the Dark Arts this year."
"Oh I don't know. one, I haven't been in the wizarding world since the. incident and two I have therapy and I'm kind of on well, Prozac" she said softly.
"Prozac?" Dumbledore said with a questioning look.
"Yes, I became severely depressed after well . . . you know what."
"Well yes Miss Lupin but it's not best to dwell on the past." Said Dumbledore.
"Well have you ever had your three best friends murdered?" asked Alexia.
"Oh I thought you meant. Sirius." Said Dumbledore.
"Please- don't- say - his -name." Said Alexia through gritted teeth.
"Well . . . yes Miss Lupin, it could boast your spirits! The children are simply wonderful" said Dumbledore hopefully.
"Well I guess . " she said doubtfully
"Thank you Miss Lupin. It's for the good of our world." Said Dumbledore.
"Whatever." She muttered. 'Good for YOUR world' she thought
"See you on-"
"September the 1st ." she interrupted smiling.
"Now, you can take that much time off?" asked Dumbledore.
"Course I can, I'm the boss. I'll just get someone to cover for me." Said Alexia.
"Good! So long miss Lupin." Dumbledore was about to leave when-
"Oh Professor"
"Yes Miss Lupin."
"Next time you're in the muggle world, please, please, please do not wear robes."
"Oh. " he said slightly embarrassed.
"No problem" she said smiling "Happens all the time here in New York. See you on September the 1st!"
"Yes Goodbye." And with that, he left.
