Chapter 10

Standing in front of the door was terrifying, meeting your family who believe you aren't family. The door opened and this time Hermione Granger opened.

"Headmaster! So good to see you!" Her face lit up as she saw the headmaster that she admired so much. Her gaze turned towards me.

"And...who might this be?"

Dumbledore motioned towards me. "This is..."

I swallowed back tears. "Virginia Morgaine Watson, pleased to meet you"

Hermione smiled pleasantly. "Hello! I'm Hermione Granger" She turned to look at Dumbledore expectantly. An unspoken question as to why I'm here. Dumbledore seemed to receive it.

"Ah...yes...Miss Watson here has...decided to join the Order of the Phoenix and I think she'll be a great asset. A very smart girl it is, indeed"

Hermione stepped aside. "Well then, please come in" We walked in and as it turned out, the hiding space behind Dumbledore's bookcase was exactly like Grimmauld Place.

"Well, I thought that it would be easier for everyone to find their way around if it was exactly like our other headquarters"

Damn that man is good in receiving unspoken questions I thought to myself.

We entered the kitchen and saw Molly Weasley busy making breakfast for everyone around. Everyone was in this case involving: Harry, Ron, Fred, George, Percy, Arthur, Moody, Remus and Tonks.

Molly looked up. "Ah Albus! Decided to join breakfast with us, have you?" She said cheerfully.

I had to really hold myself back from screaming. I wanted to run over each and every one of them and hug them, telling them how glad I was that they were alive and how I've missed them and everything. Everyone present turned to look at me and Dumbledore, because of Molly' outburst of cheerfulness.

Dumbledore introduced me once more. "I would like for you all to meet Virginia Morgaine Weasley, she is also a member of the Order of the Phoenix and I hope you will all make her feel welcome. She will be staying at Hogwarts as an apprentice of Professor Snape"

Everyone murmured hello's. (except Ron, he gave me his condolences, because of my working with Snape...good to know that at least that hasn't changed)

"Ah Virginia" Molly said, having met her before. I winced though. The only time that my mum would ever call me my full name was when she was mad and it was Ginevra. "Nice to see you again, dear. Would you like some breakfast?"

"Um...no thanks, I've already eaten"

I sat down at the empty seat (next to the Trio) a bit awkwardly.

"So.." Hermione started.

"Hey! You're that girl from the Orphanage in the village back...home...I used to play with you when I was young"

My stomach flipped. "True.." was the only word I could manage to say. I was torn in between feeling overly happy and deeply miserable.

"Hey!" I heard the familiar voice of Fred say.

"I'm Gred and..." George said.

"I'm Forge.." Fred said.

I grinned at them. "Weird names" Though, (of course) I knew the truth.

"Yeah, we.." Fred said.

"know and we already have..." his twin continued.

"wondered for years.."

"what our mother was thinking..."

"when she named us" Fred finished.

I smiled.

"Here's something..." George started again.

"to remember us.."

"as the two most memorable people.."

"that you've ever met"

Fred held out a canary cream. I took it from them and stared at it. The twins were giving me identical grins.

"Like I'm going to eat this! Don't think that Dumbledore brought me in here without any warnings"

Their faces fell and muttered something about everyone always being so suspicious and how they should work around that.

"Good that you didn't fall for that" Harry chirped. I looked at him and smirked.

"Yeah...well thank that you for warning me about that Canary Cream before you knew that I knew what it was"

Harry smirked back.

Wait...back up! Rewind! Harry smirked back? Boy...has he changed!

I stood. "Sorry, but I have to go...I have to talk to Severus Snape"

I went to leave quickly. Emotions coursing through me that I couldn't all comprehend. When I reached the door, I felt a hand grabbing my arm. Turning to look who it was, it turned out to be Harry. He was staring in my eyes like he wanted to read my soul. It unnerved me.

"I hope that will be seeing you around Miss Watson, your first impression was pretty good" And with that, he winked at me and left.

Well I'll be..

I set course to my room, encountering Snape. We discussed some things.

"Your first assignment is to prepare a potions lesson together with Mister Malfoy, you two will work on this tomorrow" And with that he left before I could say anything, but not before I could think something.

Crap
