Everyone watch silently as Ginny stormed out of the room. After the door shut they could still here her going off about being to young. Remus chuckled remembering a friend of his that Ginny reminded him of. Sirius looked at the now shut door that Ginny had exited from as though he had seen a ghost.
"She's very much like Lily isn't she?" Remus asked Sirius quietly so Molly wouldn't hear.
"She certainly is, I actually thought it was Lily here for a second" Sirius muttered.
Harry looked between the two, not completely understanding what they were talking about.
"What are you two talking about?" Ron asked looking between Sirius and Remus, he knew they were talking about his sister but wasn't sure what they meant.
"We were just commenting on how much Ginny sounded like Lily" Remus told them.
"Lily had the worst temper but you never knew it until someone managed to anger her. No one expected Lily to have such a temper because she looked so innocent. And Ginny has that same innocent look, be careful Harry and don't be silly like your father and think that a woman gets more beautiful when their angry, it may be true but when their angry they are not exactly going to give you what you want" Sirius said bluntly as he watched Harry.
"Why should Harry be careful?" Mrs Weasley asked quickly before Harry or Ron had the chance.
"Aren't they..." Sirius said his tone implied that he thought that Harry and Ginny were dating. Remus laughed at Harry and Ron's shocked expressions.
"Um Sirius I'm not dating anyone, if I was I would have said something to you" Harry said softly. He was careful not to say that he didn't like Ginny like that in front of Ron, Harry knew how protective Ron was of Ginny and he didn't want to be on the receiving end of his best friends temper.
"Why would you think that Sirius?" Mrs Weasley asked, she didn't like the idea of her youngest child dating but she knew that if it were true then she would be thankful it was Harry.
"I think it was my fault Molly, although I don't know how Ginny got brought into it when I didn't even mention her," Remus said smiling. He had told his friend of the way that Harry always jumped to protect Hermione and the way that the pair interacted. He believed that it wouldn't be long before they realised their feelings and became a couple. "You said it wouldn't be long before Harry realised his feelings for her and asked her out, then you said how much she reminded you of Lily" Sirius exclaimed turning to his best friend. Harry blushed, embarrassed that his love life was being discussed.
"That's true I did say it looked to me that Harry was realising his feelings for someone but I never said it was Ginny. What on earth made you think of Ginny?" Remus asked
"You said she reminded you of Lily and just now we both admitted that Ginny sounded like Lily when Lily ranted" Sirius said, confused as to how he had misunderstood his friend.
"I said Hermione, not Ginny, and it was the way she was acting not the way she sounded. Sirius I think you need to open your ears old man" Remus explained shaking his head. Remus chuckled as Hermione and Harry looked at each other and then quickly looked away and blushed.
"No you said Hermione reminded you of Annie, not Lily" Sirius argued. Remus looked at his friend in confusion, trying to think of when he had said such a thing and then it dawned on him.
"Sirius you fool, I bet you stoped listening the second I mentioned Annie. If you had continued to listen you would have heard me say that the way Hermione reacts to Harry and Ron reminded me of how Lily reacted to James and yourself. And the way that Harry and Hermione look at each other reminded me of how James and Lily looked at each other, and I didn't say they were dating I said that I wouldn't be surprised if Harry told us he wanted to asked her out" Remus explained laughing at his friends ability to tune out when ever his ex girlfriend was mentioned.
"I thought it was only mothers that tried to set their children up?" Harry muttered loud enough for Sirius and Remus to hear him.
"Heaven help us if Annie and Lily ever tried that, James and I wouldn't have gotten a say either way" Sirius said chuckling.
"Who's Annie?" Hermione asked her cheeks still red from listening to Remus and Sirius's conversation.
"Annie, now she was beautiful" Bill said loudly. He obviously didn't realise that he had said that out loud because when everyone looked at him he went red and shuffled down in his seat.
"Annie was my girlfriend when I was at Hogwarts. Bill was right she was beautiful, she had it all, a wonderful personality and she was smart," Sirius said drifting off in the end, remembering his time with her.
"And she still is, very smart woman she is, everyone loved her" Remus stated watching Hermione. Remus was the only one within the room that knew the Annie that they were talking about was Hermione's mother, but Remus didn't dare share that piece of knowledge with the table. He had first spotted Annie at the train station dropping Hermione off, so when he resigned from Hogwarts he went and paid his old friend a visit. It was during that visit that Annie had told Remus that her husband was not Hermione's father, Remus didn't need to be told who the father was it was clear in the way Hermione acted that Sirius was her father. Annie had made Remus promise not to say anything to either Hermione or Sirius, which was proving to be a hard task.
"What do you mean ' she still is' I thought you said you hadn't seen her in years?" Sirius asked quietly. Remus took a deep breath readying himself for Sirius's attack; whenever Sirius spoke softly it was a sign that he was not happy about something and was preparing for a fight.
"A year ago, when I left Hogwarts I decided to find her, and I did. She asked me not to tell you where she was, that when she was ready to see you she'd come to you" Remus explained quickly.
"You kept it from me? You didn't think I would want to know where she was" Sirius exclaimed.
"I had to, she made me promise not to say anything-"
"I thought I was your best friend Remus!"
"Oh don't start that Sirius, if you want to get angry at anybody get angry at bloody James, after all he was the one that helped her move into her apartment in muggle London" Remus said watching Sirius pace in front of the fire place.
"What! He should be bloody thankful his dead then and since his not here I think I'll just get angry with you then"
"I don't think he had a choice about not telling you, you know yourself what its like to have Annie and Lily gang up on you, he stood no chance" Remus told his friend. Annie had told him that Lily had helped her keep her child a secret.
"I'm going for a walk" Sirius announced walking out of the room.
"You do that" Remus muttered, thankful that his friend didn't force him to reveal Annie's secrets.
"Harry sit down, you wont get anything other rambling out of him at the moment, his to upset. Annie was his first and only love, when she left him it almost killed him. That was half the reason he was able to keep his mind while in Azkaban" Remus told him.
"But why didn't my dad tell Sirius where she was?" Harry asked, he couldn't believe that his dad had kept something from his best friend.
"Like I told Sirius, I don't think he had a choice. Harry the thing is your mother and Annie were best friends and when together no one was stupid enough to go against them, your mother and Annie weren't afraid to use the knowledge they got from their precious books against someone who pissed them off enough. Don't get me wrong they were both wonderful women that would put everyone else before themselves, they made friends with people that others would not, for example myself once people realised what I was no one would speak with me except Lily, Annie, James and Sirius and eventually the rest of Gryffindor came round. But if you hurt someone they cared about watch out, they didn't hold back when they were protecting a loved one" Remus explained to them.
"I need to send someone a letter, excuse me please. Harry I'm sure that Mrs Weasley would answer your questions for you" Remus said before getting up and walking out of the room.
