Hello, guys look like I am back yeah. So sorry for the long delay and I promise it won't happen again. Well here is chapter 14 finally, and I hope you didn't give up on my story.
Thanks to all the people who have reviewed and I hope you like the chapter.
Chapter 14 – Dumbledore has the answer
This is Harry/ Hermione as Lily/James)
Sirius laughed, "I think I found something, it's crazy but it just might work". Harry sighed with relief as he
And Remus crowded him. Remus groaned slapping him on the back of the head "For crying out loud Sirius"
"Tsk, What gives Moony?" he gasped, rubbing his head in circles. "That is a quidditch move Padfoot" he
sighed, taking off his glasses and wiping them on his robes. "Well we've made a lot of progress- over an
hour and all we got is a bloody quidditch move" he spat before taking his seat again. Shrugging Sirius closed
the book "Not that I know of," said Sirius. Remus motioned his head toward Harry, causing him to sigh.
"Listen, I'm sorry Harry" slowly he pushed the books aside "It's just we have looked through everything
you know". He sat there in silence as Sirius carried on "You know Harry, maybe it wouldn't be so bad
having you stay here. I mean sure I miss your dad, but it is cool having you here."
Finally Harry spoke "You don't understand Sirius, I can't stay here; for reasons you wouldn't even
Believe. I have things I must deal with at home" "Things my dad just can't do for me" his voice was
Betraying his anger as he struggled to remain calm. Feeling defensive Sirius raised his voice "Surely you
Have your dad, Remus and Myself to help you so why must you do this whatever it is alone" Harry grabbed
A book and flung it open "Because I have no choice in the matter" he said as he began to read. Sirius stood
Up and snickered "Oh I get it, we can help you now, but in the future Potter works alone" "Let it ride man"
Remus said to them both. "No! Moody if he wants to work alone, then who am I to stop him? You want to
Go home, then do it without me!" Slamming the book down he walked toward the exit as Harry sat there
Fuming how dare he Harry thought He doesn't know about my life. "THAT'S THE IDEA, I SAID I HAD
NO CHOICE AND I DON'T" he panted but continued on, "YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT MY
LIFE IS LIKE, I AM ALONE SIRIUS, ALL ALONE, AND YOU KNOW WHY?" "LET ME TELL YOU
CAUSE YOU AND MY PARENTS ARE DE". "Dealing with their own lives, right Harry?" Everyone turned
To see Dumbledore standing in the doorway "I believe Ms. Granger is asking for you" he spoke softly.
Harry nodded "Right away, Thanks professor" he welcomed the interruption as a gift, he had almost told
Them the truth and that would have made matters worse. He was glad Dumbledore showed when he did.
All he cared about now was Hermione and getting them home, nothing else mattered to him anymore.
"See you later" he said dully to them as he made his way out of the library. Dumbledore took a seat next
to Remus as he studied Sirius "If you will sit down Mr. Black, I'm sure you will find your not as nearly
as mad at him as you think" Sirius just laughed "He is out of his mind sir" "Ah" said Dumbledore
"Yes. Well, that can sometimes happen. But the point is, he is right I'm afraid" Clapping his hands together
he leaned back "Now I'm fully aware that you both know about Harry and Hermione and how important
it is that their secret is kept just that" "We do Professor," said Remus "And, It is very important to keep
a close eye on them both, for I'm afraid I'm not quite sure how long they will be here" "That solely depends
on James and Lily" "I'm afraid I don't understand sir" Sirius spoke "Why would it depend on James and
Lily?"
Dumbledore sighed, "Well let's just say I have found some information that doesn't disturb me quite yet
But all will be explained soon." "I expect Harry is with Hermione now, so give them so time and have him
Meet with me later." Dumbledore stretched "This is where I leave you, dare I say I have never liked these
Chairs; dreadfully uncomfortable" he smiled as he stood "Gentlemen, good day" and he was gone.
"What happened with you Padfoot?" asked Remus. Sirius shrugged "Don't know man, but what I do know
is he was very distant back there and I can't shake the feeling that maybe we aren't there in the future"
"I'm sure we are Sirius" Remus smiled "Come, Let's go find him" Sirius nodded as they left the library.
Harry entered the common room to find Hermione and Alice sitting on the sofa. "Hey you" he spoke softly.
Hermione turned around to look at him, half smiling she waved "Hey yourself" she said. Alice took the hint
"I'm going up to bed now Lils, you need me let me know" Hermione nodded as Alice climbed the stairs.
Harry rushed over to her side "How are you doing" he asked with deep concern as he threw his arms
Around her, laying her head on his shoulder she sighed "Better now" "Sorry for shouting at you before"
"Don't even worry about me love," he whispered. "Oh Harry, I can't keep ruining your life like this" she
Whimpered. "Hermione you could never ruin my life. You keep me going, don't you see that" he wiped the
tears from her eyes "No more talk about this ok we've done this already" He kissed her softly before resting
his forehead on hers "I love you, forever and always. No matter what, you know that right?" Giggling she
nodded "Yes" "So your ok now then?" he asked as he cupped her face. She gasped in shock "What is it?"
Harry asked sitting up "Harry do you think your mum is keeping up on my grades?" He sat blinking for
A moment as she tried not to laugh "Oh yeah, your ok, back to your normal bookworm self"
Harry laughed as he dodged the pillow she threw at him, tackling her before she could grab the other one.
"You know, once we get married I'm going to pay you back every day for that" he said. She sat there with
her finger on her head in a thinking gesture "Dear, that maybe a problem" she said with a chuckle.
He nodded " Awe your scared" "Scared, me? Heavens no it's just I'm going to marry Ron" screaming with
Laughter she tried to wiggle away as he tickled her without mercy "Ron wouldn't have you, so I'm your
Only option," "Say it" he said, "You're my only option" she said between fits of giggles. "I thought you
Would see it my way" he smirked. "Get a room guys" smirked Sirius as him and Remus stood at the
Entrance way. "Umm, sorry about what happened in the library man" he slowly swung his foot across the
Carpet, waiting for a response. Clearly confused Hermione sat up "What happened in the library" she asked
"I just" Sirius started to say but Harry cut him off "Nothing Mione" "Don't nothing me Harry James Potter
clearly something happened," she said folding her arms. Remus smiled as he shook his head, if he didn't
get them to focus on something quick, it would be fighting all over again. "Dumbledore wanted to see you,
Harry, something about finding a answer to your problem." Both shut up instantly and eyed Remus.
"Well when does he want me?" Harry asked "I guess now mate" Remus said laughing. "Do you really think
he found a way home?" Hermione asked with hope "Let's go see" he smiled. Hand and hand they ran for
the entranceway and disappeared. "Why didn't you tell them about James and Lily being the way home?"
Sirius asked Remus. "I didn't see the need to ruin the hope before it needed to be" he shrugged.
The feelings of excitement were overwhelming for the both of them as they stood in front of the statue
Waiting for the entrance to open "So what is the first thing you want to do when we get home?" Harry
Asked her "Most defiantly my assignments" she answered as if she was surprised he asked. He laughed as
The statue moved allowing them access "Ron would have died hearing you say" Harry said. Hermione
Sighed As the walked the stairs "I can't wait to get home Harry, I miss them all so much, you know". All he
Could do was hold her hand as they walked on. He hoped everything was okay at home, Ron could be
Annoying at times he only hoped his dad didn't hex Ron or anything. Stopping in front of the door, he
Turned to her "We will be home soon, No matter what we have to do we do it agree!" "Agreed" she said.
Harry could hear the gentle "Enter" before he even knocked, shrugging they entered the office to find
Dumbledore seated behind his desk. Grinning Harry stepped forward "Evening professor, you wanted to
See me?" "Oh, please do say you know how we can get home" Hermione rambled. Dumbledore chuckled
"Yes and yes" he answered to both of them. "Please have a seat, and I will explain as best as I know how"
Pointing her wand Hermione conjured two chairs and seated themselves down fully eager to hear how
And when they were going home. "Ah! Yes, well I looked into the nature of the spell you used. Very
Useful for some couples" he chuckled as Hermione blushed. "The spell is only supposed to change the
The souls of the couple intending to use it, but in this case it change you with two other people" resting
his hands under his chin he continued to speak, eyeing them intensely from his half moon spectacles
"I'm still not sure how that came to be, but my concern was clearly how we can fix it and you can't"
Harry was confused "But sir, you said you found a way for us to get home and now there's not" groaning
He leaned back. Hermione trembled "Were never going home". Smiling Dumbledore nodded his head
"I never said you could not return home, I merely said you couldn't be the ones to fix it" "The way to
return home is through Lily and James," he stated. Dropping his hand from his face Harry closed his
eyes "Why are they our way home" he asked. "Simple, the spell is designed to allow a couple to know and
admit their love for one another. Being that you and ms.granger already know this" he paused "That leaves
Lily and James to uncover their feelings and only then will you be restored to your own lives. "Wow, how
Romantic" Hermione sighed "Romantic? Mione did you hear what he said?" frowning she eyed him
"Yes every word" Harry threw his hands up "Well then you know were doomed, you heard the stories of
them in school, they hated each other. We don't know how long it will be" he said "But we know that they
love each other eventually so we will wait, it's not like one of them will go missing or anything" she tried to
assure him "I guess your right" he smiled softly at her before turning to Dumbledore "I'm sorry professor,
thank you for everything you've done to help" "Anytime Mr. Potter, just remember things have a natural
way of working themselves out" "Sure professor, goodnight sir and once again thanks" Harry spoke as
they stood up to make their exit. "Anytime" Dumbledore called as they closed the door behind them.
Neither spoke a word as they walked back to the common room, for a fleeting moment they were going
Home and now they were still no closer to it then yesterday. At the moment what was there to say.
Well folks there it is chapter 14. I hope you liked it and I'll have the next one up by Monday. Please
Review and enjoy. Thanks…
