Chapter7: A Crush? And Arrivals

When Serenity reached Ginny's room she shut the door and sat on one of the three beds in it. She ran a hand through her hair and thought 'I don't have a crush on him…do I?' she immediately shook her head to try and rid herself of the thought ' Of course I don't have a crush on him! I don't even know him!' but a mischievous voice at the back of her head said ' yes you do' at which Serenity replied ' no I don't!'

At some point during her mental argument Ginny had quietly crept into the room and sat on the bed across from Serenity. Ginny watched Serenity for a moment before clearing her throat to get the raven-haired girl's attention.

Serenity jumped slightly at the sound, startled, before realizing it was just Ginny and felt an embarrassed blush creep across her cheeks. The red-haired girl giggled softly before speaking up "Soo.. What's up? Why did you leave so suddenly?" Ginny watched as another blush crept over Serenity's cheeks and then remembered the way that she and Charlie were staring at each other earlier. Ginny's eyes widened and a mischievous smile found it's way to her lips and she exclaimed, "You have a crush on Charlie!" Serenity blushed yet again and shook her head " No I don't! I don't even know him!"

Ginny, still smiling, replied, "Oh, yes you do! And not knowing him is no reason not to have a crush on him..there's still plenty of time to get to know him." Serenity glared playfully at her before breaking into a smile and giggling. Ginny began giggling as well and winked at her before getting up and leaving the room and leaving Serenity to her thoughts.

Meanwhile in Bill and Charlie's room, Bill was interrogating Charlie.

Bill eyed his brother as he paced back and forth across the room and asked, " So, you have a crush on the late Sirius Black's daughter." This wasn't a question. Charlie looked up at his brother and shrugged noncommittally and continued pacing. Bill sighed and spoke up again, " I haven't seen you like this since that girl back in your 6th year. Be careful Charlie, and I don't mean just for you but for her too I don't want to see anyone hurt."

Charlie sighed and flopped down on his bed " I don't know what I'm feeling Bill… I mean when she looked at me it was like there was something there and her voice, it sent chills down my spine." Bill smiled and clapped his brother on the shoulder "Take your time, it looks to me like she's interested in you too." With a wink and a grin Bill left the room closing the door behind him.

Once out in the hallway Bill ran into Ginny who was just closing the door to her room. Side by side the two siblings walked downstairs. Bill glanced at his sister and asked, "Well?"

Ginny replied, "She's in denial." Bill nodded and didn't say anything more.

Once the reached the living room they spotted Ron who was reading a letter. He looked up as Bill and Ginny entered the room and with a smile on his face, exclaimed, " Harry and Hermione are coming today! Mum and dad just left to go get them." Bill watched as Ginny blushed slightly. Even though she was dating someone else and claimed that she no longer had a crush on him, Bill knew otherwise. Bill was the only one out of her brothers other than Charlie that she would tell things like that. Ginny quickly ducked out of the living room and into the kitchen before Ron noticed the blush.

Ron raised his eyebrow at Ginny and then shrugged and continued to read the letter over and over. Bill walked into the kitchen and took a butter beer out of a cabinet and sat at the table to enjoy it. He had only taken one drink when he saw Serenity walk into the kitchen and sit down at the table with a quill, parchment, and an inkbottle. She glanced up at Bill and gave him a shy smile before starting to write a letter to her best friends Emily and Travis James. Emily and Travis were brother and sister and also went to The Wizardry Academy of Salem, Massachusetts.

When Serenity finished the letter she read and re-read it to make sure she hadn't left anything out:

Dear Em and Trav,

Hey guys! How are y'all doing? Me, I'm doing ok…I think. I just found out that I was adopted and that both of my real parents are dead. I'm still a little shaken but I'll be fine. Well it looks like I won't be going to school with you guys for our last year. I'm currently in England and I'm going to go to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. You know those feelings that I get from time to time that normally turn out to be accurate? Well when I found out about my dad, whose name is Sirius Black by the way, I got that feeling again… I don't think that he's actually dead..I think he's just in a different dimension. I'll have to investigate this further as time goes on. Oh my God! I'm staying with this really cool family called the Weasley Family…they have seven kids! That's right SEVEN! I've met six of them..One of them no longer talks to his family..There's Bill, Charlie, Percy (he's the 'exiled' one), Fred and George (twins), Ron, and Ginny. Today I practiced one of my songs and they were my audience it was soooo cool! I think I might have a crush on Charlie…but I don't know. Well I'll write again soon! Take care you two!

Love your friend,

Serenity P.S. Give everybody my love and tell them that I say Hi!

Satisfied, Serenity folded the letter and magically sealed it. She looked up at Bill who was still sitting at the table drinking a butter beer and asked, " Um, is there an owl I can use? I have one but she's still in the states." Bill smiled and nodded and said, " Sure, I think Ron will let you use Pig." At Serenity's strange look he added, " Don't ask" and called for Ron who was only too happy to let Pig deliver the letter. After several minutes of struggling to tie the letter on the overexcited owl, Pig was finally off on his journey.

About ten minutes after the letter was sent off Mr. And Mrs. Weasley came home with two other people that Serenity had yet to be introduced to. One of the people was a girl who had brown somewhat bushy hair and a dignified air about her, the other was a boy with messy black hair and glasses and bright green eyes.

Mrs. Weasley saw Serenity and beckoned her over to make introductions, " Serenity this is Harry Potter" she placed a hand on Harry's shoulder " and Hermione Granger" she placed her other hand on Hermione's shoulder. She motioned to Serenity and told Harry and Hermione " This is Serenity Black"

When Mrs. Weasley mentioned her last name both Harry and Hermione looked at her in shock and disbelief. Serenity gave a shy wave and waited for some other response. Harry finally spoke up first, " Wait, You're Sirius' daughter? I didn't think he had any children." Serenity nodded and gave a brief explanation of her parentage. Harry noted with some relief that she wasn't gawking at his scar like so many others tend to do. Serenity giggled when he suddenly relaxed and said, "Don't worry I know who you are and what you've done…but I think that staring is rude." Harry smiled, something he hadn't done in three weeks. Hermione who had been silent the whole time finally spoke up, "Wow, you made him smile! I didn't think he'd do that so soon. Are you going to Hog…" Whatever else Hermione was going to say was abruptly and suddenly stopped as Ron had run in and picked her up in a hug worthy of Hagrid. Ron set a very mussed up Hermione down and clapped Harry on the shoulder, "It's really good to see you two! I see you guys met Serenity…she is soo cool! She has a band and she sang one of her songs for us today! Hey Serenity! Would you sing another one? Pleease?" Ron gave her a hopeful glance while Harry and Hermione looked really interested.

Serenity giggled at Ron's pitiful face but gave in and nodded. Ron gave a whoop of joy and led everyone outside. Serenity once again used wandless magic to put up a silencing charm and a stage with her band on it. She got up on the stage and went behind the mic and a song started up:

She's never pulled anybody From a burning building

She's never rocked Central Park

To a half a million fans

Screaming out her name

She's never hit a shot to win the game

She's never left her footprints on the moon

She's never made a solo hot air balloon ride

Around the world

No she's just your everyday average girl but,

She's somebody's hero

A hero to her baby with

A skinned up knee

A little kiss is all she needs

The keeper of the Cheerio's

The voice that brings Snow White to life

Bedtime stories every night

And that smile lets her know

She's somebody's hero

She didn't get a check every week

Like a nine-to-fiver

But she's been a waiter

And a cook and a taxi driver

For twenty years there at home

Until the day her girl was grown

Giving all her love to her

Was her life's ambition

But now her baby's movin' on

And she'll soon be missin' her

But not today

Those are tears of joy runnin'

Down her face

She's somebody's hero

A hero to her daughter

In a wedding dress she gave

Her wings to leave the nest

It hurts to let her baby go

Down the aisle

She walks right by looks

Back into her mother's eyes

And that smile lets her know

She's somebody's hero

Thirty years have flown

Right past

Her daughter's starin'

At all the photographs

Of her mother

And she wishes she could

Be like that

Oh, but she already is

She's somebody's hero

A hero to her mother in a rockin' chair

She runs a brush through her sliver hair

The envy of the nursing home

She drops by every afternoon

Feeds her mama with a spoon

And that smile lets her know

Her mother's smile lets her know

She's somebody's hero

When Serenity finished her song she was met with cheers and applause from everybody. She was so caught up in her song that she never realized that the other Weasley's, including Charlie had come back outside to hear her sing. She blushed and gave a small bow. When she jumped down from the stage she was immediately pulled into a hug by a very teary Mrs. Weasley who kept on telling her how beautiful the song was. Serenity and Charlie locked gazes once more causing Serenity to blush and start busying herself with getting rid of the stage and band. This did not go unnoticed by anyone in the group that stood outside. Bill shot Charlie a mischievous grin and then proposed a mock game of Quidditch to which everybody except Serenity, Hermione, and Mr. and Mrs. Weasley agreed was an excellent idea.
