Hi!! Ok, I'm really sorry that I haven't updated in a while, but I have been REALLY busy – sorry!!!

I would also like to apologise to the person (s) I offended by putting up an author's note (and believe me there was someone who was apparently offended!!) I'm not trying to be funny or sarcastic or anything, but I really didn't want people to think that I was discontinuing this story, so I kinda had to do something!! So, I'm sorry and it won't happen again!!

Well, here's chapter 4 (finally!!) - It's not really anything major; I call it a stepping-stone, because I have to step on it to get to the important part, if that makes sense.

*****************************

With a heavy thump, Harry landed on the floor of the Charms classroom. He got up and looked at the class to find everyone staring at him, a mixture of fear and confusion in their eyes. He looked at Professor Flitwick, who had a guilty look on his face.

'They all knew' thought Harry.

"Why didn't anyone bother to tell me?" Harry shouted at Professor Flitwick. The teacher opened his mouth to reply but Harry didn't give him the chance. He turned around and practically ran out of the classroom.

Harry charged along the corridor, not quite knowing where he was charging to. He heard the Charms door opening and then closing again behind him and footsteps hurrying towards him.

Harry began walking faster, thinking Professor Flitwick was coming after him to try and explain himself, but Harry didn't bother to look back to prove his theory. He heard the footsteps stop and minutes later he found himself standing outside Professor Dumbledore's office.

"Sherbet Lemon!" Harry yelled and the staircase started to rotate as Harry leapt onto one of its many moving steps.

He reached the top of the staircase and stormed into the Headmasters office without bothering to knock. Dumbledore looked up casually from his desk as if someone had knocked politely and then strolled in asking him about the state of the weather.

"Ah, good morning Mr Potter." Dumbledore addressed Harry cheerfully.

"Good morning? GOOD BLOODY MORNING?! I assure you, sir, that I am not having a 'good morning'." Harry yelled back at his Headmaster.

"I am very sorry to hear that Mr Potter."

"Do you ever get remotely concerned about anything?" Harry asked, his voice shaking with anger.

Yes, Mr Potter, I do, especially when it comes to matters concerning you."

"Oh well, thank you very much, I do fell honoured! And do please call me Harry." The teenager replied, his voice oozing with sarcasm.

"What is troubling you this time Harry?"

"Oh nothing really, just the little, tiny, miniscule fact that everyone forgot to mention that MY PARENTS ARE STILL ALIVE!"

"You discovered it in Charms I presume?" The Headmaster asked briskly.

"How did you know I had Charms?" asked Harry, not really thinking about what he was saying, or to whom he was saying it.

"I wrote your timetable Harry."

"Oh, yeah, um.... Look, why didn't anyone tell me?" Harry asked, calming down slightly.

"To protect you. We all sat down and talked about it and worked out what would be best for you." Dumbledore replied.

"Who's we?" Harry asked, his overwhelming curiosity once again getting the better of him.

"Your Mother and Father, Sirius, Remus and myself."

"But... I don't understand, I mean, if they're still alive, why didn't they stay, or at least take me with them? Why did they do any of this in the first place?" Harry stammered, trying to get to grips with the whole thing.

Dumbledore looked at Harry with a look of what appeared to be a mixture of curiosity and concern, but a smile still lingered on his lips.

"Sit down Harry, and I'll explain everything."
