Chapter Seven:

"WHAT?!" I yelled.

"Do you know him or something?" Maddie asked.

"YES I KNOW HIM!" I shouted.

"How?" Maddie asked.

"In my third year he was my Defense Against the Dark Arts professor and he lives where I go every summer, well at least the last two summers," I explained.

"Oh," Maddie said.

"I can't believe he's my father," I said aloud mostly to myself. Professor Lupin and I really didn't look alike. I mean I guess we were alike when it came to school work and stuff like that. We both liked to read. It didn't seem real. These past few days haven't seemed real. I feel like I'm going to wake up in my old room with my old parents and then leave to Grimmuald Place when it was time.

"Hermione," Maddie said breaking me out of my trance.

"Yes?" I asked.

"Do you think we should tell him?" Maddie asked.

"Well," I said. "He deserves to know who is daughter is as much as I deserved to know who my father was."

"You're right," she said. "I'll, well I don't know what I'll do."

"Invite him here," I suggested.

"Good idea," Maddie said. "I'll owl him inviting him to stay for the last week before school starts for you."

"Harry, Ron!" I said as they approached the doors.

"Bloody hell," Ron said as he looked at the house. It had been about three weeks since I found out who her father was. Draco had arrived two weeks earlier.

"How are you guys?" I asked.

"Great," Ron said. "And you?"

"Good," I said. "Let's go inside."

"Wicked," Ron said when I showed him his room. It had red walls and deep plush carpets. The bed was like mine only not girly. I had one of the maids put up Chudley Cannons posters for Ron. "This place is bigger than the burrow."

"Well I don't think it's quite that big," I joked. Harry your room is just on the other side.

"Whoa," he said. His room was much the same as Ron's only it was green not red. "This is definitely bigger than the Dursley's. I would want to Aunt Petunia's face if she saw this."

"You're stuff will be brought up," I told them.

"So what's it like?" Ron asked.

"What's what like?" I asked.

"Having servants and stuff," Ron said.

"It's weird being waited on but it's really cool. When I'm deciding what to wear I can try stuff on and if I don't like it leave it on the floor," I told them.

"I thought I'd find you here Granger," said a voice behind them.

"Malfoy?" Ron and Harry said together.
