Part/Chapter: 7

"Let me dress freshen up. I don't think your grandfather would appreciate to see me messy." Remus said.

"Oh he wouldn't care. Tonks might though." Serverus said.

"I don't think so. She could care less how I dressed myself." Remus replied calmly.

"Sure. Well hurry up."

"Ok ok."

After, Lupin was dressed and in the room everyone got down to business. Herms and Jet reported what they found out and did. Tonks said what lessons plans she got done. It was Tuesday and because everyone worked through the weekend they wanted a break. So instead of saying what they had to and leaving everyone sat down and got comfy. They had no plans to go anywhere. Snape's house was always fun to hang out in.

As it neared dinner time. Hermione was ready and said goodbye to her parents. They were connected to the floo network so that's how she was getting to Ron's. When she got there she was greeted by everyone. She loved this family. The only person in the group missing was Harry. We Percy hadn't come back to his family yet but he never really was in it. The time will come when Harry rejoined them. Soon Ron and herself would be with Harry. Although she was worried about how he would react. He didn't need anymore drama in his life. He had more than most people who lived. Little did she know Ron felt the same way. They would need to work together. But she liked that thought.

Harry went back to his room. His uncle told him should lie down and relax the rest of the day. Well that was the farthest thing from his mind. He didn't want to sit and do nothing. He wanted to study. He started to enjoy it way to much. He was now past N.E.W.T's level on most of the things. That didn't bother him. The farther he was the better chance he could become the murder. Ah yes. He didn't want to be killed nor did he want to kill. It wasn't his style. As always he had to be the one to do it. He hated to get lost in his thoughts. They were too depressing. He quickly picked up a book and begun to study through it. Ah he would be done with all of his books by Friday. He would have to find a library in the house and pick up more books. Of course there would be plenty of good books in their. He couldn't wait. But for now he had to go down to dinner. It was 6 and he just figured that was when they would get ready to eat.

On his way down he was met by Lupin. It was a good thing they took the same staircase.

"Coming down to eat?" Remus asked carefully.

"Unfortunately , yes."

"Why do you look like it's a bad thing?"

um.. I guess no one told him what I had to eat. Or that I was force to eat it. "You'll see when dinner is served."

"Do you know the foods?"

"Only mine. Let's go before someone worries."

They went down the stairs and to the dinning room where everyone was. They didn't talk much there though. That worried Remus a little. As they entered they went and sat down. Lupin by Tonks and Harry beside Serverus and Albus. After a few minutes the food arrived.

"Um Sir. What is this?" Harry's drink was different. It wasn't much either which Harry was thankful for. But the color was awful.

"Well I thought you already had fruit for breakfast, and for lunch you had veggies so I thought you would get meat tonight."

"Oh ok." Harry wasn't feeling so thankful anymore. He didn't want meat yet. But he would have to or his uncle would make him.

"um Serverus why does he have it in a form of a shake?" Remus asked confused.

"Well because he hasn't eaten much it'll take awhile for him to get us to it. Liquid is the best to get started. But as he needs more than soup next best thing is to mix the food up add a little soup and it's in a liquid form. (well that's not how I really see it but it's the only way I can explain it.)"

"I understand now. Now I see why you didn't look so thrilled to come to dinner."

"Well I wouldn't either. But Harry you do need nutrition and this is a good way." Herms said.

"I know." Harry replied looking into his cup.

"Can we eat now then?" Albus asked.

"Sure eat away. You too Harry." Jets answered for everyone.

So everyone ate dinner. Harry didn't eat the entire shake. It wasn't very good and he still didn't feel good. Serverus did not press the issue. At least he wouldn't tonight. He could see Harry wasn't feeling well and he still didn't think anyone wanted to be cleaning half the night. They had enough to do. After dinner they moved back to the common room with Harry joining them and had a good time. Around ten o'clock herms and Jets left and everyone else started to go get ready for bed.

Remus got his stuff he would need for the night and went to Harry's room. He was in the one across the hall like Tonks thought he would. He prepared for a long night once again. Harry was going to sleep tonight. It had been four night until he slept. He needed it. He was exhausted and he still wasn't feeling good.

Ron and Hermione were in his backyard talking. Yes they liked to argue with each other. But that makes life fun. They were surprised at how they could have a good conversation with out getting mad at each other. That talked about there summers and how they were. They didn't talk about Harry. That would come some other time. Right now it was there time. They had a great time talking to each other about crazy stuff. All too soon they were getting called into the house to get ready for bed.

That night everyone sleep. Well Lupin didn't he was on watch. Harry slept fitfully but he slept. It was refreshing. Around seven everyone; started to wake up. Remus went back to his room to get ready for the day. Tonks got up took a shower and went to the dinning room. She wasn't that hungry after all the food she had yesterday. Serverus woke and started to look at a book. After half an hour he went to take a shower and went down to breakfast. Dumbledore did the same as Tonks, only earlier. Harry woke with a start and went to take a cold shower. He was tired and wanted to go back to sleep but knew that wouldn't be good. Then he went to eat breakfast. Remus went back to his room took a shower then laid down. He slept for half an hour before a house elf came to get him. Needless to say he was the last one in the dining room.

From the things looked only Serverus and Dumbledore were hungry. Remus was a little hungry but he never was one for breakfast and plus he was tired. Herms and jets weren't there yet and everyone wondered about that but didn't bother to dwell on it. Harry was not hungry and only ate a few pieces of fruit. He still wasn't feeling good. Tonks of course ate o lot yesterday and just wasn't hungry.

After a half hour later Herms showed up. Then followed ten minutes later was Jets. They sat down and ate a little, although they had breakfast. Harry went up to his room after he was dismissed. He knew that after everyone finished with the meeting his uncle would come up. It didn't take rocket science. (is that how you spell it?) But he was going to enjoy the time he had to himself.

At the Weasleys got up and ate a wonderful breakfast. Thanks to Mrs. Weasley of course. Then they started to clean out the garden together. Hermione and Ron stayed close and had a blast. Fred and George kept playing pranks on everyone which add to the fun.

Jets had no new info. He was going back to the ministry though. Not by choice. Herms' was going to go check on Hermione and Ron. Then he was going to shop for some stuff. Tonks had the same idea as far as shopping but she was going to work on her lesson plan in the morning. Remus was going to take a nap then go shopping with Tonks. Dumbledore was going to school and finish the wards. Serverus was going to talk to Harry then also go shopping hopefully with Harry. Not for school stuff. He would do that next week when Ron and Hermione were there.

Lupine told everyone Harry finally slept, restlessly though, Then went to his room. After a few minutes of discussing who and what they were going to do tonight the rest went their own way. Serverus was going to stay up tonight. He was on his way to Harry's room. He didn't want to go and talk to him but knew he needed too.

Okay sorry its' shorter. But I think that's a good place to leave off. Next week it should be longer. I also know this chapter was very entertaining either. Sorry. So do you guys mind if Ron and Hermione, then Tonks and Remus are together? I like that coupling. I hope that's okay.

Is the title ok?
