To My Wonderful Reviewers:
Thank you for making the story so popular! It was my first fic, after all!
amrawo: Yeah, bare with me! I'm trying! Thanks, though!
Thoughts And Pondering: I still have to make up something for that!
Jessica: Lol, yeah. They are going to get together this chapter, though! Thanks for reviewing!
yourstorysucks: Yeah, I know. Bare with me. I am TRYING to make the chapters longer it is just that this is my first ever story and I have to think about what to write about, you know? A little thing called writer's block on my mind right now.
Beth5572: Here you go. Thanks.
Britni Puccio: I'm TRYING!
XyliaDark: Yeah, well, I really couldn't think of a good reaction Harry would have had towards James…but oh well.
PLEASE NOTE: I know fully-well that my chapters are really short, but I am trying my hardest, and since this is my first fic ever, could you please be a little more nice? (sweatdrops) I like the comments and everything it's just…saying the story is really short (and i know it is), it kinda makes me want to quit writing all together. I don't know!
Chapter 4: An Odd Day Indeed
After Hermione dragged Ron to the library, they sat down beside each other and took out their homework. Ron sighed heavily and Hermione looked at him curiously.
"What's wrong, Ron?"she asked worriedly.
"Nothing, 'Mione,"Ron replied. "I'm just happy for Harry, is all."
Hermione nodded, not really believing it, because Ron was in a dreamy mode. "Are you sure there is nothing else wrong?"
"I'm sure, Hermione."
Hermione nodded. "What I am wondering though, is…how did James come back from the dead?"she asked. "He was presumed dead for 17 years, along with Lily."
Ron started to nod, then froze. "Hermione, you're not thinking what I think you're thinking, are you?"
"It is a possibility, Ron!"Hermione exclaimed. "I mean, come on, he's been dead 17 years and we just give him a hi and a hello welcome back? Come on, there must be something more than that."
Ron rolled his eyes and shook his head. "I just think you are being paranoid, Hermione. I mean, who are we to go into Harry's family business?"
Hermione blinked. This was not like Ron at all. "Ron, are you…m-maturing?"
"I am going through puberty."
"Don't remind me."
"Hey! And anyway, in here you never talk about anything other than homework, and Harry probably won't like it that we are talking about his family life,"Ron said.
Hermione put a hand to Ron's forehead. "Are you sick?"
"Hermione!"he pleaded, blushing madly. "Please. What if a teacher sees us?"
"Oh, come on, it's only Madam Pince,"Hermione answered, rolling her eyes at Ron's nervousness. She had come to hate it, and to love it at times.
"Hermione, I-"Ron started, but it was a little too late. Ron and Hermione's lips met, arms wrapped around waists, and it was a good thing they were in a dark corner of the library, or otherwise they'd be thrown out of the library.
Harry made his way back to the Gryffindor Common Room, laughing. Ron and Hermione were probably in some dark corner making love/having sex, ect. They did act like a married couple all of the time. Even when Ron thought Crookshanks ate Scabbers, when he was at Hagrids. Now he's Peter Pettigrew, the man who sold Lily and James to Voldemort and is a deatheater, who caused Sirius to spend 12 years in Azkaban.
Sirius. He was still laughing at him and Remus because of their reactions towards James's comeback from the dead. But, at least all the true Marauders were back together, minus Wormtail.
Harry checked his watch and realised it was 7 o'clock. He blinked. He hadn't visited Hagrid in a while, so that's what he decided to do, seeing as Dumbledore told him that he wanted to let Sirius, James and Remus catch up on old times.
He made his way to Hagrid's hut, realising he had only a few hours before he wasn't allowed outside anymore until morning, which really sucked. Bloody hell.
He knocked on Hagrid's huts' door, and Hagrid answered a few minutes later.
"Harry, c'mon in, I just made a spot of tea,"Hagrid greeted, letting Harry inside his hut.
"Hi, Hagrid,"Harry greeted. "Did Dumbledore tell you about my dad?"
Hagrid blinked. "What? Oh, yeah, 'e did. Suppose yer happy, eh, Harry?"
Harry nodded.
"Now yer won't have ter live with them damn muggles,"Hagrid commented.
"Yeah, though I don't know how they'll let me stay with dad,"Harry said. "Fudge is stupid, if you ask me. He's too power-hungry."
Hagrid nodded. "Well, I'm sure they'll find someway so yer can live with him."
After an hour or so, Harry left Hagrid's hut, only to be knocked out cold. He fell to the ground in a heep as someone carried him away from Hogwarts.
The only thing the person didn't know, was that Hagrid saw what was happening and was going straight to Dumbledore.
"Professor Dumbledore, sir!"Hagrid exclaimed, running into Dumbledore's office, surprising him and the three marauders. "It's Harry, sir! He was kidnapped."
The three marauders growled.
"Did you see who took him, Hagrid?"Dumbledore asked.
"I would have never believed it if I hadn't have seen it with me own eyes, Dumbledore."
"What are you talking about, Hagrid? Who kidnapped Harry?"James asked.
Hagrid hesitated, before answering. "Lily Potter."
TBC…
-Now, you are all probably wondering WHY on earth would Lily kidnap her own flesh and blood? It will all be explained next chapter. Hope you enjoyed this wonderful cliffhanger!
