The Children – Rhia's PoV
August 1997
I ran over to the Potter's house as soon as I could. Hermione had left before I had, she had to go and tell them the good news, her parents were over there. I decided to by pass the main house and proceeded to climb up a drain pipe that went all the way up to Harry's room. As I got to the window sill I opened the window and fell into the room. Not the most graceful of entries but I didn't care for subtleties at the moment. I brushed myself off and looked up to look straight into the face of a girl with bright green eyes and dark coloured hair.
"AH!" I said jumping back. "Who are you?" I asked her.
"She looks exactly how I remember her." Said a boy behind the girl.
"Be quiet." Came Harry's voice as he entered the room. I looked to Harry uncertainly.
"Who-" I said, moving to him but looking at the two strange people in his room.
"Andrea and Sam." Harry muttered. "The boy is a pain in the arse." He whispered to me. The girl obviously heard and started laughing. "I came to tell you that breakfast is ready." He said. The boy ran out of the room quicker then if he'd been on a broom. The girl was a bit slower. She looked at me and smiled as she left the room. I watched the door close uncertainly.
"Who are they?" I asked turning to Harry.
"I'm not sure but I know they're related to me in some way. The strange thing is that neither of my parents know who they are and my dad nearly had a heart attack when he saw Andrea yesterday. She looks like his older sister Andrea, who died when he was eighteen." Harry told me.
"I remember someone telling me about her." I muttered.
"But yeah, they're some relatives from the future." He said.
"The FUTURE!" I asked. He nodded then smiled. He gave me a kiss, which I was more then happy to return. "Happy to see me then?" I asked him with a smile.
"Is it obvious?" He asked with a smile.
"Not really." I said with a grin. I pushed myself up on my feet and pressed my lips against his again. His arms went around my body as he pulled me closer to him. I smiled as we broke apart.
"Guess what?" I said to him quietly.
"What?" He asked as he kissed my cheek.
"I'm a prefect." I said with a smile. Harry pulled away.
"You got your letter?" He asked. I nodded. "And you're a prefect?" I nodded, he burst out into a smile and kissed me again. I loved his kisses so much! He then let go of me and ran out of the room. I scowled slightly and followed him feeling a little annoyed. Harry had run down to the kitchen where there were a few letters on the table. Harry had taken his and was opening it. I saw him emptying the envelope as Hermione had done earlier and there in his palm was a badge the same as Hermione's but instead of HEAD GIRL it had HEAD BOY. Harry's eyes went wide. He looked at his mum.
"I think there's something wrong with this letter." He said. He read the letter again, "I think they put the wrong name on the letter" He added. Lily took the letter and looked at it.
"No, it's the same letter that I got for being head girl." Lily said. She then smiled. "We're getting another head student in the family." She said happily. Harry turned to me looking shocked.
"Who's head girl?" He asked. I pointed to where Hermione was talking to her dad. "Oh my god." Harry muttered.
"Wait till Emma gets to seventh year." Sam muttered with a grin.
"What?" I asked him.
"Oh, that's when she was born." Sam said pointing to Andrea.
"No it wasn't. I was born the year after." Andrea muttered.
"What?" I asked. I was getting more and more confused. Lily looked at the two new people.
"We'll talk in a while, you will tell me exactly who you are and everything." She said.
"We can't. If we do we could change the future and cease to exist." Andrea said. Lily was about to say something to her but decided against it. She glared at Harry for a moment before turning to finish the cooking. Hermione's mum got up and went to help Lily. There was only just over a month before Harry's new brother or sister would be born, Lily needed all the rest she could. I went over to Harry and took his hand. I led him out of the room and we went and sat in front of the TV. Today, thankfully, was my day off so no work, thank Merlin. I was getting fed up of standing in front of a camera. I loved the days when I was performing or in the recording studios but I didn't really enjoy the photo shoots and that was mostly what everything had been.
"We'll be working together then." I said to Harry as I settled in his arms.
"Yep, but it's not like we haven't been working together for the past year anyway." He said. I smiled and kissed his cheek.
"Yeah, I suppose." We watched the TV for a while until James came to tell the Grangers that it was ok to return to their house. They'd caught the Death Eater responsible already, which was very good for the ministry, though my mum and James Potter put together in a team was just a fantastic pairing, they could get anything done. Bo came by to say hello to Emma for a moment as well as Jenny coming over to check up on Lily. Once the house had quietened down it was only Lily, James, Harry, the two teenagers from the future and myself. Emma and Bo had decided to go to the cinema in the nearest town then they were going to check out Bo's possibly new house. He wasn't sure if he was going to buy it or not yet. I lay on the sofa with Harry's arms around me, his lips gently touching my neck. I smiled and turned to look at him.
"You know, mum and dad are taking Orion and the twins to London tonight." I said quietly to him. His eyebrows went up slightly.
"What are you suggesting?" He asked as he held me tighter.
"I don't know." I said innocently. "Empty house, just the two of us…my bed." I added cheekily. Harry laughed and kissed me properly then.
"I'll think about it." Harry said. I pouted slightly but smiled when I felt his hands under my shirt. "I've thought about it and I think it's a good idea." I grinned and threw my arms around him.
"Yay." I said, "It's been ages since we spent a night together." I said.
"And who's fault is that?" Harry asked me. He leant in to kiss me again when we heard James clearing his throat at the door. Harry and I broke apart instantly.
"We were just talking." I said to James.
"Of course you were. We need to talk to you two." James said.
"We?" Harry asked. "What about?" Lily led Andrea and Sam into the room then, to my surprise, Dumbledore walked into the room.
"Professor!" I said in surprise. I automatically went to straighten my clothes out as Harry and I moved apart from each other. Dumbledore had that sparkle in his eyes like he knew what we'd been up to.
"Rhia, Harry." He said. "Now, I've come to believe that there's been a bit of a mishap."
"Yeah, but that's with them, not us." Harry said pointing towards Andrea and Sam. Andrea rolled her eyes but smiled anyway.
"No wonder you were conceived really quickly." I heard Sam whisper to Andrea.
"What?" I asked.
"Nothing." Sam said with a grin.
"Sit down everyone." Dumbledore said.
"Yes sir!" Sam said with a laugh. "You haven't changed at all sir…though you look a little younger now."
"Sam, shut up!" Andrea snapped at him, "We can't say anything."
"She's right, don't tell us anything concerning the future, we can't know in case we might change it."
"Good! It can't be worse then it is." Sam said.
"Sam!" Andrea snapped. I looked at Harry feeling very confused. Everyone took some seats, Harry moved closer to me and put an arm around me.
"Ok, we have to talk about this." Dumbledore said.
"Why does it involve us?" I asked.
"Use your eyes!" Andrea asked, "Isn't it obvious who we are?" I looked at Andrea and Sam carefully, Harry's hair, Harry's eyes all I could see was Harry but Andrea's face didn't look anything like Emma's face shape…or anyone in the Potter family. That would only make sense, if all I could see was Harry's features then obviously there was going to be someone else's features in them. I scowled slightly and turned to Dumbledore.
"If she doesn't know then there's no reason to tell her." Dumbledore said to Andrea. "Our main concern is getting these two back into their own time. I've had a little word with them and if what they say is true then they've got to be transported back over twenty years in the future."
"Oh." Harry muttered. "So how old was I when…"
"Well, mum was eighteen." Sam said, "When she had Andrea."
"Oh." Harry said. "Crap." I looked at Harry confused. Was I missing something? Did everyone know who these teenagers were except me?
"That's not the point, we need to get them back to their own time." Dumbledore said, "We already know too much-"
"Like the fact I'm going to have grandchildren a little too soon!" Lily muttered.
"That's why we need to talk to you Harry." James said.
"Please, personal feelings aside. Would you like me to find other arrangements for these teens?" Dumbledore asked, "Or will you be ok to look after them until I find some way of sending them home?"
"Just send us back the way we came." Andrea suggested.
"It takes several months to get hold of a time turner." Dumbledore said.
"We can wait. I want to spend more time with Dad." Sam said.
"And Mum. We'll wait, we don't mind." Andrea said.
"Yes but every moment you stay the more you will change."
"Not unless we can protect Aunt Em-" Andrea put her hand over Sam's mouth.
"What?" I asked. Something about Emma. "What happens to Emma?"
"We can't know." Lily told me sternly, sometimes I wish that she wasn't so close that she was almost like my mum. "But what can do need to know is the exact time that you travelled back from. I can work out how many hours you've travelled back."
"Oh, that's easy. It was at one thirty on the thirty-first of July." Andrea said.
"Oh. So I'm like…thirty nine then?" Harry asked. Andrea shifted uncomfortably.
"Um…yeah." She muttered. I'd had enough. I stood up and looked at Andrea.
"Who are you!" I asked her. "I want to know! Is there something I'm missing?" Sam laughed slightly.
"I thought you said she was clever." He muttered. Andrea looked at Dumbledore for a moment. He sighed in defeat and seemed to give her permission to say something. Andrea stood up and left the room.
"Go with her Rhia." Dumbledore said. I looked at him confused but followed his orders. I found Andrea in the back garden, she was just pulling on some of Emma's trainers. They seemed to fit her perfectly.
"Who are you then?" I asked her.
"I can't tell you here. Lets go and visit Pegasus." She said.
"Wha-How do you know about Pegasus?" I asked.
"You left him to me when I was younger."
"I left him to you?" I asked. "I left him?" Andrea looked at me for a moment and took my hand. I started in surprise as she led me down the hill to the paddock where my winged horse was happily munching away on some grass.
"I don't know how to say this, I haven't seen you in so long." Andrea said to me.
"What?" I asked, I was getting really scared. I'd never seen this girl in my life. She looked older then me as well! What was happening?
"You died when I was seven." Andrea said. She got up on the fence of the paddock and watched Pegasus trotting around the paddock. "He's so much happier now then in my time." I joined Andrea on the fence.
"What are you talking about?" I asked her.
"Don't you see it?" She asked me, turning to look straight into my eyes. I looked at her slightly confused. If I didn't know any better I'd think that she was about to cry. "Don't worry if you don't." This girl was scaring me, who was she? Obviously Harry's daughter but what had that got to do with me? I watched Andrea for a while, the more I watched her the more I recognised her but she was older then me and I was still alive! How could I have died when she was seven? Wait…she was from the future wasn't she?
"How did I die?" I asked her quietly.
"Someone killed you." Andrea said.
"I…what?" I asked, "Who did?"
"It was as a punishment for my aunt, to get her onto their team." Andrea said. "The bad guy of my time isn't anyone to mess with, he proved that by killing you and your sister."
"Which one?" I asked dangerously.
"I can't-" Andrea said, getting choked up. "I'm not allowed to say. If I change the future then I may not exist any more and…even though you and Dad may still be around then it may be worth it but I wouldn't know what happened so everyone would think I'm weird. I mean, what if I never get conceived? I can't run that risk."
"Me and your dad?" I asked. "What-" Then it dawned on me. I stared at Andrea wide eyed. "I'm your…your…you're my daughter!" I asked her. Andrea nodded.
"Yeah." She said sadly. "I didn't want to have to tell you but, now you know." I felt my world spinning. No, I wasn't planning on having children until I'd at least had something of a career. I wanted to live a bit out of Hogwarts and this girl had just said that her mum had been about eighteen when she had her. That meant I would be having her just out of Hogwarts. No. I wouldn't believe it. I jumped off the fence and walked in the direction of the lake. Andrea walked after me.
"Mu-Rhia." She said as she started to run after me. She caught up with me. "Are you ok?"
"You turn up from the future, tell me I'm your mum and expect me to be ok? You're older then me! I'm only fifteen!" I told her. "Do you think I'm ok! I have two children before I turn…I don't know? What? Twenty one?"
"Yeah, something like that." Andrea said.
"You know what…I'm going home. Tell Harry not to bother coming over tonight." I told her. She just grabbed my arm.
"If I tell you, will you stay?" She asked.
"Tell me what?" I asked her suspiciously, I had to admit I was incredibly curious.
"You can't tell anyone, not dad, not Dumbledore, grandma or granddad." Andrea said. I looked at her curiously, she had my full attention.
"I promise." I said. Andrea looked at me a little sceptically. I took off a ring that Harry had bought me a week ago and gave it to Andrea. "As a token of my word."
"I already have it." Andrea said, reaching into her shirt. She took out a necklace with two rings on it. One was the one that I held now in my hand, the other was a plain silver ring with a small musical note that looked a bit like an R inscribed on the inside. "It's dads. Emma gave them to me before she…before they…well after you were killed" Andrea explained to me.
"When did we get married?" I asked her felling slightly fazed
"The summer you left Hogwarts" Andrea said, "Well, September to be exact. I can't remember the exact date. You looked lovely in the photos that Phoebe showed me." Andrea said with a smile. I looked at her curiously and sat down on the grass. Andrea's smile widened as she sat down next to me.
"Ok, as your…um…mother." I said uncertainly, "even though I'm younger then you, I demand you tell me everything." I couldn't help giving a small smile but Andrea went serious.
"You want the whole story from the beginning?"
"How much do you know?"
"Almost everything." Andrea said, I looked at her curiously. "Aunt Jessie told me when I stayed at hers two weeks ago…well…in several years time…" Andrea faltered.
"I know what you mean, what's Jessie like in your time?" I asked, "I'm guessing she's the sister who survives?"
"Only because she went to India with her boyfriend." Andrea replied. "Basically, you marry dad, you have me, you have Sam then that's where things got worse." Andrea said, fiddling with the rings. "You and dad were always doing stuff for the Order, and with dad's job and all. Well, dad went on this mission but he never came back. Aunt Emma's always been in trouble, she's the main reason why our family was targeted so much, the dark lord has this fascination with her, wants her to be his wife or something, well, obviously because now she's living with him."
"What?" I asked incredulously. Emma would never do such a thing.
"Well, dad went missing on one of the Order missions so you and Emma were sent after him. I don't know why they sent you but while you were away we got a message for Emma. It turned out it was the Dark Lord making an exchange. He wouldn't touch her family in return for her being his wife." Andrea chewed her lip for a moment, I watched her as a darkness seemed to fall over her like it sometimes did with Harry. She had the same brooding look as Harry did. "Well…she couldn't bear the thought of Uncle Bo and my cousins getting hurt, you or her family, basically, so she snuck out to meet with him. After they made their agreement he sent people out to kill everyone but my cousins, grandma, granddad and Phoebe. Fortunately Sam and I were taken to Hogwarts but not after I saw-" Andrea faltered. There were tears in her eyes. I really didn't know what to do. It was times like this I wish I was older, maybe the mum that Andrea seemed to want and need. "Well, dad never came back. Emma came to your funeral for a few moments and gave me the necklace, she said they were the rings you carried everywhere with you. Dad always gave you his ring before a mission in case he never came back, it's his favourite and an assurance that he'd return, you see." Andrea said. My head was spinning slightly, this was a bit much to take in. Andrea sighed.
"Anyway, Jessie was missed, She was in India, like I said. Uncle Bo now looks after two werewolf children and I have two Malfoy cousins." Andrea said. I wasn't willing to accept just that.
"What did you see?" I asked her. She was silent for a while, tears coming back to her eyes. She wiped her eyes quickly with her palm.
"You." She said. "I've missed you. I've never seen you perform but I miss your singing voice. You used to sing us lullabies, and your words of comfort when we asked dad, and the smell of you. I was only seven." I was started to gain some sense of where I was. Hesitantly I moved closer to Andrea and put my arms around her. Not entirely sure what to do but I didn't seem to need to do anything. Andrea put her arms around me tightly. She cried and sobbed into my shoulder until she seemed to have let it all out.
"Sorry." She muttered.
"Um…it's ok, if a little weird." I said, trying to hide the huge gaping hole in my heart now I knew the future, should I try and change it? Did I have the power to change it?
"If it helps, you always did seem a little sad, like you knew it was all going to happen anyway." Andrea said, "Which makes me think that maybe me coming here doesn't have any effect at all."
I ran started at a run over the hills towards the village. I walked into the house and slammed the door. Mum poked her head out of the kitchen to look at me.
"You ok?" She asked me.
"Oh yeah." I said sarcastically. "I just met my seventeen year old daughter!" I said hysterically at her. I don't know why I felt so panicked but I did. "She just told me the entire future, what's going to happen to me, my family, the Potters, Lupins!" I said. what Andrea had told me was beginning to hit me hard.
"What?" Mum asked as she looked at me. She winced for a moment. "Hang on, let me put this pot down," she said. She disappeared then came into the hallway. "What's this about a daughter?"
"Apparently I die when she's seven along with Kaylee order to prove something to Emma." I said. My mum looked at me even more confused.
"Your daughter? You don't have one…do you? Unless I missed something but you've stayed this thin for your entire life…unless there's something you're not telling me."
"Mum, I said my daughter was seventeen…I'm only FIFTEEN!" I shouted at her. "If you don't believe me then go and see Lily and Harry and that lot." I said. "I'm going to bed." I said. I went to my room, ignoring Kaylee's persistent questioning. I got some satisfaction in slamming the door in her face and hearing her cry in pain as I hit her foot with the door. I lay on my bed and stared at a photo of me and Harry. I would be having children in three years time. Great! Not only that but I was going to die and there was nothing I could do to stop it! I don't know how long I'd been staring at the photo for but when I heard the tapping at my window it was dark outside. I got up and went to the window. It was open and I wasn't quite sure why Harry was staying outside.
"You can come in." I said to nothingness. I felt someone brush past me to get through the window. Harry took off his invisibility cloak and looked at me.
"Are you ok?" He asked me with some concern.
"I'll be ok."
"Why didn't you come back to the house?" He asked.
"I freaked." I told him. He pulled me into a hug that I was able to lose myself in.
"You still up for tonight?" He asked.
"No, I want to be on my own." I said.
"I'm afraid I can't let you be on your own." Harry said with a grin. "Who knows who might try and get into the house, you saw what happened when Hermione was left on her own."
"What do you want to do then?" I asked him.
"Nothing that you don't want to do." He said. I couldn't believe him. It still sometimes felt like a dream that I was with Harry and that he loved me.
"Ok. We'll just talk." I said with a smile.
"Talk we shall, but with the window closed. Andrea told me that Sam has a thing for eavesdropping."
"Let him hear, I don't care."
I sat in a large comfy sofa at the recording studio playing with my hair. Mum sat on the other side of the sofa talking to my new manager, a man she'd known she was really young…I think, according to my dad, that he was her ex boyfriend. I'm not entirely sure. They had an argument when dad found out who was being my manager. It went something along the lines of…
"I can't believe you're letting her hire him! He's the scum of the earth!" Dad had said.
"You think everyone who liked me is the scum of the earth!" Mum had snapped back.
"But he took you away from me."
"No, you did that yourself, by being the immature jerk that you were."
"You slept with him though!"
"Twice."
"Still!"
"Sirius, get over yourself, I'm not going to sleep with him again, I love you!"
"How do I know that he won't try anything?"
"Because he's married?"
"I don't trust him. If he does anything, anything at all I'll know!" dad had said. At that Mum had stormed off angrily and dad had left to make sure his team was doing ok but he came home later that night smelling of Firewhiskey. Why is it that whenever my parents fight, dad drinks? I guess I'll never know…actually I could just ask mum but I can't be bothered. My mind wasn't on my parents right now. I couldn't get Harry out of my head. I had managed to suppress everything that Andrea had told me, I had questions to ask her but I was too scared to go near her. I had a small smile on my face as I thought of him. Suddenly the idea of having children with him didn't seem too bad. I enjoyed the process of making them…but childbirth? Watching Lily made it seemed like it didn't seem too fun. Lily's temper had shortened so much. She was a lot more stressier then usual.
"Rhia." My manager said. I started out of my thoughts.
"Huh?" I asked. He scowled at me.
"Are you ok?" He asked.
"I have a lot on my mind." I said.
"Well don't. You're only fifteen, you shouldn't have anything to worry about except school and boys." He said. He was a cool guy, I liked him. I'd scrapped my old manager for him. This guy was called Mark Lithleweit. He was so cool, funny as well.
"Yeah, I suppose so." I said. He smiled and helped me up.
"Come on, we're ready for you to record your song." He said. I got up and went into the small recording booth. I glanced out of a bit of glass to where my mum sat watching me. She gave me an encouraging smile. For head Auror she seemed to have a lot more time then she'd had before. I put on a pair of headphones and went up to the microphone. The recording session didn't last very long, I was just recording the words to some of my new songs. I was delighted though, when Emma came to visit and steal me away from them…but not after they'd asked her to record something for them.
"We've heard you're good with a guitar." One of the recording guys said.
"And it has nothing with the fact of who I am?" She'd retorted but recorded it anyway.
"Can we go now?" She'd asked mum.
"Where are you going?"
"Bo's house." Emma replied, "His new one, please?"
"Fine, be home before dark." She said. "I'll wrap up here for you guys."
"Thanks!" Emma had said before jerking me out of the recording studio. I'd noticed that Emma was a little less dressed up then usual, in a slightly longer skirt then she usually wore and a t-shirt that had F OFF on it. Nice of her really but I knew why she wore it. Any guy that looked at her usually looked at her chest first and that's where the F OFF was. I felt very under dressed next to her in my baggy jeans and strappy yellow top.
"Are we really going to Bo's house?" I asked her.
"Yeah. Come on, I don't want to get soot covered so…we're taking brooms."
"What? Where is his house?" I asked her.
"I'm just joking, it's just round the corner from Diagon Alley." Emma said.
"He's got a flat in London?"
"Yeah, isn't it great!" Emma said happily. We walked down a muggle street after stopping to buy some ice cream. Emma spent the whole time telling me about Bo's new apartment, it seemed like she loved it. Once she'd finished I told her about what Andrea had told me excluding the bit about what Emma had to do and the fact she'd had four children from two different men. Emma put her arm around my waist.
"I wouldn't worry about it. I'm not and Sam's told me that I do BAD THINGS!" She said a little dramatically. I felt my gut twisting when she said that.
"What kind of bad things?" I asked, feigning ignorance.
"I don't know but I'm too young to care, and you should be too." Emma said, "Unless you're really a twenty eight year old and you've been pretending to be my friend all along." Emma said. I smiled at her ridiculousness. She grinned at me and led me down the street. We got a few wolf whistles that we just ignored until we came to a building that Bo was just leaving. It wasn't a great looking building, a little on the shabby side. The brick was white…or had once been white but were now a kind of yucky grey colour. I looked at Emma sceptically.
"You should know as well as I do that appearances are deceiving." She told me. I nodded.
"Yeah, true." Bo saw us and walked over with a smile.
"Hi." He said. He kissed Emma's cheek and then turned to me and hugged me. He looked better then usual in the days that followed a full moon. I reckon Emma must have had some good positive effect on him.
"What are you girls doing here?" He asked.
"Can we please please check out your apartment?" Emma asked. Bo pretended to scowl for a while.
"Ok." He said with a smile. "Here's the key. I'll be back later, I've got to go and visit mum."
"Oh, how's she doing?" Emma asked. I looked at the two of them confused.
"Better."
"What's happening?" I asked.
"Mum's been admitted to a Muggle Hospital." Bo said.
"What for?" I asked feeling alarmed, "When?"
"This morning." Bo told me. "I'll tell you more when we find out more. I'll see you two later?" Emma nodded,
"Say hi from us."
"And give her our love" I added. Bo smiled.
"Will do." He said. He left us to wonder into his apartment.
"What's happened to Jenny?" I asked Emma as we got into an elevator.
"Oh, um, she found a lump." Emma said.
"Where?"
"On her breast. It's been there for a while apparently, Bo only found out yesterday and forced her to go to a hospital. She didn't think it was too serious so she just went to a Muggle hospital. They haven't really had time to tell anyone yet. They're just a little concerned about what it might be. Bo said he'll get Jenny to tell people tonight. I think he's going to get our mums to go and visit her. I know they're getting anxious about now having heard from her."
"Yeah, I think I remember mum getting a bit worried the other day about not having heard from Jenny." I said. Emma nodded. The elevator stopped and opened up into a dimly lit corridor. Emma walked across the corridor to a dark red stained door with the number fifteen on it. She used the key to get into the house. I was half expecting a shabby run down flat but the flat was actually really nice. It was clean and fairly open for a small flat. All the doors were open with a curtain of 'crystal' beads separating the bedroom from the rest of the flat. The kitchen, living room and dining room seemed merge together into one room. The stove, fridge and stuff were in one corner while there was a small TV in the corner and a load of beanbags and cushions on the floor where the sofa should have been. I gave Emma a curious look. She gave me a grin back.
"Sofas were too expensive, besides, beanbags are more fun…to sit on." She said as she pulled me into the house.
"What's wrong with hanging out at our own homes?" I asked her.
"Parents." Emma said. She sat down on one of the beanbags and gave me a smile.
"What?" I asked her.
"I know about you and Harry." She said.
"You've known for a while." I said, "We're together."
"He came back this morning at like…six in the morning, what have you two been up to?"
"What makes you think it was me that kept him away?" I asked with a smile.
"Rhia, don't think I'm an idiot." Emma said. I sat down next to her. "So, how long have you two been sleeping with each other? When did you first do it? What's it like?"
"What?" I asked her, "I can't tell you that." I said. That was obviously the wrong answer. "We first did it when Gryffindor won the Quidditch cup in the changing rooms." I said quickly.
"Rhia!" Emma said gleefully.
"What? What was I supposed to do? I loved him, I wanted him and I just discovered that he didn't stop loving me, he was just trying to protect me." I said, feeling the need to protect myself. Emma grinned at me.
"You are going to be my sister in Law! YAY!" She said.
"What? Harry's going to Propose?" I asked, feeling alarmed. I was happy with our relationship how it was.
"Well obviously he is, I mean where do you think Andrea and Sam came from?" Emma asked.
"I didn't think about that." I admitted.
"Don't worry prefect. You'll be fine." Emma said, nudging me in the ribs.
A/N:-HANDS UP WHOSE READ HBP! -waves hand in the air- it's really weird writing this fiction after THE death and after THE kill and after EVERYTHING that happened in that book! I'm in shock...seriously. I just had a 2 hour phone call to one of my best friends about the book and OH MY GOOOOOOOOOODDDDDD! BUt now i'm a Ginny/Harry shipper tho the Harry/Hermione side of me dies hard. I can't beleive that all that happened...I can't beleive that He actually killed HIM even though my frends and I have out theories. (I won't mention names JUST in case). oh my god! it's so weird writing this. I dunno how i can continue. I think i'll kill HIM too just to make it better for me. But then i've got 3 people alive in this story who died in the books...this is an AU after all...i dunno...waaahhh!
