Bold is Talking

Author's Note: Make sure to comment on what ships you want to see and what houses some of the characters should be in. All I know for sure is that Andrew, Draco, and Aideen are going to be in Slytherin.Euphemia P.O.V.

Everything got super quiet after I asked the question. He nods a little suspicious. I mean who wouldn't be suspicious if a random person you just met knew your name? I looked at him with tears in my eyes and said, "I knew your father when he was alive. I only met your mother once at their wedding. I am so sorry for your loss, my son was his best friend growing up."

(A/N: yes I am making there be a fifth member to the Marauders, his nickname is Tigerheart. His animagus form was a male tiger.)

"What was my mother and father's name?" He asked nervously. I thought for a minute and then responded, "Your mother's name was Althea Swan Shadow, her maiden name was Chantelle. Your father's name was Malcolm Bates Shadow. You are one of the richest pure-bloods along with the Malfoys, Blacks, and Potters."

He starts tearing up and Aideen hugs him. He calms down after a few minutes, then we took a tour of the house.

I sigh when I see the kids' faces when they see the library. I look over at Charlus and I see he knows the same thing. They are going to spend the most time in here and the pool. They love the pool especially Aideen. She is just like her father in that regard. I miss him, I can not wait until he is out of his magical coma (Aideen already showed them the results of the tests she took)

I like Lily too, she kept up in conversations and was good at singing and playing the piano. I can not believe that old fool of a headmaster did not tell people that they were not dead just in a coma. I want to smack him.

We settle to the informal dining room and have cookies that I baked already, I had a feeling I would need them. I baked raspberry lemon cookies and white chocolate raspberry macarons.

Aideen looked around and her eyes brightened and widened at the food on the table. I motioned for her to try one and her reaction was heartwarming. Her eyes closed and she hummed her opinion of the desserts. I smiled at her. It is hard to imagine her being only eleven but when she acts like this, you can tell.

I love how she trusts us enough to close her eyes and her back on us. I know from past experiences that must be hard to do at her age. I want to kill Dumbledore for what he made her go through.

I mean seriously making her Godfather and uncle go to prison when he knows Sirius is innocent. I want to slowly choke him to death and watch him plead for mercy when he knows he does not deserve it.

After we finish eating, all of the kids look at me and ask if they can go to the pool for a little bit. I nod my head and tell them to be careful, it gets slippery around the edges of the pool. They run off and go get changed. We adults, go to the living room and catch up on what has been happening since we last saw each other.

Aideen's P.O.V.

I go up to my room and love it instantly. I get changed into my bathing suit with a cover-up over it.

I go out to the pool after getting changed and making sure I had everything ready for the pool. I got a green towel, speakers, and a book from the library about the Olde Ways and Rituals.

I thought it would be interesting to read about. I was the first one down so I took out my book to read until Draco and Drew come. after twenty minutes they come down. Draco had silver swimming trunks while Drew had a dark green almost black swimming trunks.

I looked up at them wondering why it took so long, they saw the look and responded, "Sorry we took so long, we got lost and your grandparents had to help us out. They did not laugh but they had smirks on their face the whole time down here."

I laughed a little bit which quieted down when they gave me a look. I put my hands up in surrender even though I was smirking. They sighed but did not say anything more about the topic. We talked a little bit and let our food settle for five minutes since we had just eaten cookies and macarons.

I learned new things about Draco too. His two favorite element is water and air, he likes true crime books and potions. Also, he wants to follow in Severus's footsteps and become a master at potions. We got in the water soon after that and stayed in there for about two hours.

During that time we played around, raced (which Drew and Draco won against me but Draco won against Drew), dunked each other, did flips in the water and played a muggle game Would You Rather. The adults came down after an hour and watched us with a smile on their faces.

We complained about having to get out until we learned the time. It was ten-thirty at night. We quickly got up to our rooms, got showered, and got ready for bed. By the time I was done doing everything it was eleven at night.

As soon as I made sure my familiars were all set and warm (they wandered around the house while we were in the pool), I laid down and went to bed.
