It has been a few weeks since Juliet's reconciliation with her family and after getting her wand from the Ministry she was sitting in the Leaky Cauldron with two of her closets friends Hermione Weasley and Ginny Potter drinking Pumpkin juice well Hermione and Ginny was drinking Pumpkin Juice Juliet was drinking giggle water which was one of her favorite Wizard beverages second only to Butterbeer.
"So you just forgave them just like that" Hermione said before taking a sip of her drink "my parents yes Draco not so much," Juliet said before she took a sip of her drink which made her giggle."So you haven't forgiven Draco yet," Ginny asked Juliet as she shook her head while she got over her giggle fit. "Of course I haven't forgiven that snake yet after all the humiliation he put me through he's lucky I didn't walk out of the Manor but, I didn't because contrary to popular belief I happen to love my parents as unbelievable that may seem," Juliet said in a passionate tone."But, they lied to you for all those years and even when they told you the truth that you were adopted they still hid the truth about what happened to your real parents," Hermione said trying to reason with her friend. "I still remember when you came to the Burrow that night," Ginny said as the three women remembered that night so many years ago.
(12 years ago: The order of the Phonieox were sitting down to a delicious dinner made by Molly Weasley when they heard the Floo roar to life they all drew their wands ready to fight until they saw a broken Willowmina Malfoy "Oh my dear what happened " Molly said as she supported Willowmina in her arms because she looked like she was about pass out "did they do anything toyou Willow because If they did I'll bloody kill them" Neville said in an angry tone as he saw the state of his girlfriend "give the poor girl some room all of you" Molly said as she wrapped Willow in a blanket and sat her in a chair near the fire place. A few mugs of hot cocoa and a couple pumpkin pasties later Willow was looking better "what happened Willow did they hurt you" Hermione asked in a concerned tone "not physically but, they did hurt me emotionally" Willow said as fresh tears fell while Neville tried to comfort his girlfriend."What did they say to you darling, " Neville said in a gentle tone as not to upset Willow anymore than she is. "He who should not be named told me the truth of birth parents, my real father is a death eater and he cursed my real mother to die after giving birth to me because she did not believe in their cause" everyone looked at Willowmina in shock.)
"That was a long time ago I've grown, I've changed, and even though I don't regret leaving the Wizarding world to live a normal life I still think that my parents have suffered enough, I'll see you two at the ball," Juliet said as she got up and left her two friends. When Juliet returned to 221C Baker Street she found that her door was already open "Gee, I wonder who's in my Flat" Juliet thought as she rolled her eyes as she walked in her Flat "Sherlock I know I gave you a key in case of an Emergency but, that doesn't give you the right to go into my-" but it wasn't Sherlock in her Flat it was her parents who were sitting on her couch "Mother Father what a surprise can get you anything" "Oh Willowmina you're finally home" Narcissa said as she hugged her Daughter . " Mother Father may I ask how you found out where I live," Juliet asked in an apprehensive tone. "Simple darling I used a tracking charm" Narcissa replied in a casual tone as she let her daughter go.
"Some tea would be delightful" "yes some tea would be nice" her parents replied before Juliet went to the kitchen she filled her tea kettle with water, she then put a tea bag in the kettle ,then she put it on the stove, and she then pulled down her three of her best teacups. " Willowmina you're making tea the muggle way," Lucius asked in a concerned tone when he saw his daughter brewing tea "yes Father I am I've lived as a muggle for twelve years and even though I have my wand and know magic I vowed only to use it for defense" Juliet replied as she pulled down some biscuits from her cabinet and put them on a plate . Lucius kept quiet because he knew if he made Willowmina upset three things would happen one she would ask them to leave, two he would be sleeping in one of the guest rooms in Malfoy Manor that night, and three he would burn the bridge with his daughter forever and He didn't want that to happen because they just got her back and they were not losing her again.
As the tea was brewing there was a knock on the door so, Juliet went to open it "Hello Juliet" "hi John what can I do for you" "I'm just going to the store and I wanted to know if you want anything, sorry I didn't know you had company"John said noticing Lucius and Narcissa "it's okay John these are my parents Lord and Lady Malfoy, Mother father this is one of my friends Dr. John Watson" Juliet said "How do you do Dr. Watson I am Lucius Malfoy Willowmina's father" Lucius said as he shook John's hand "and I am Narcissa Malfoy Willowmina's Mother charmed I'm sure" Narcissa said as she shook Johns' hand . "It's nice to meet you two your daughter is a lovely person and I'm glad she is one of my friends, so do you want anything from the store," " if you could pick me up an issue of the Sun that would be great John" "okay I will oh and Sherlock needs your opinion on something for a case so if you can come over sometime today it would really help us nice was lovely to meet you two see you later Juliet " John said as he was about to live .
"Okay John I'll be over this evening," Juliet said as John left Juliet's Flat. "What a charming Muggle," Narcissa said when John was out of earshot "who is Sherlock," Lucius asked in curious tone "Sherlock Holmes is John's flatmate and my next door neighbour he is a consulting detective for New Scotland Yard uh Muggle Aurors, he is one of the most intelligent Muggle's I've ever met, he is one of my closest friends, and he is my boyfriend Mycroft's younger brother." "Why would they need your help on a case," Narcissa asked before the kettle whistled "well Mother since I am one of the most famous Artist's in England I have a certain eye for art so, when Sherlock even in his infinite wisdom can't discriminate a genuine piece of art from a forgery he comes to me for help" Juliet said as she poured three cups of tea and served them to her parents she then sat down at the table next to her mother. The three of them spent the afternoon reminiscing about the more happier parts of Juliet's childhood after a few hours they said their goodbyes and Juliet's parents apparated back to Malfoy Manor. Juliet then looked at her clock and saw that it was 4:30 in the evening so, she slipped on her flats and headed to 221 B.
She knocked on the door which was opened by John "Hi Juliet come in Sherlock's still in his Mind Palace" John said as he let Juliet in. "How long has he been like that" Juliet asked she sat down next to Sherlock "for about two hours" John replied as sat down in his chair "that has to be some kind of a record," Juliet said in amazement. "You've ruined my concentration thank you for that" Sherlock said as he opened his eyes "you're very welcomed mop top, did you have a nice nap sleeping beauty" Juliet as she ruffled Sherlock's hair "stop that," Sherlock said as he batted Juliet's hand from his hair. "I ordered Chinese, you like sweet n sour pork right Juliet," John said "aw John you're a man after me own heart but, I'm happily taken," Juliet said with a giggle "you're in a good mood Juliet did my brother visit you today" Sherlock asked with a smirk "no you creep Mycroft didn't visit me today if you must know my parents visited me" "your parents you've never mentioned your parents before what changed " Sherlock asked in an inquisitive tone .
"It's a long story Sherlock and a touchy subject for me but, you guys are two of my best friends so I'll give you the condensed version," Juliet said with a shy smile before Sherlock and John leaned in to listen. "First off I'm adopted my real father is in prison and my real mother died after she gave birth to me my adoptive parents were my real parents closest friends going all the way back to when they were in school so after my real mother passed away my adoptive parents got custody of me, and they raised me alongside their biological son when I was eleven they told me that I was adopted when they told my brother he started to verbally harass me so, my parents moved me to another boarding school in France but, I came back when I was older that's when we had a really bad falling out so, I ran away and moved here started my business and the rest is history" Juliet said with a sigh. "So why after twelve years did you chose to reconcile with your adoptive family I'm just curious," John asked.
"Well I realized that they've suffered enough I've grown as a person since then and I also realized that I was being petty to hold such a long grudge against them so, I forgave them but, I haven't completely forgiven my adoptive brother, he will have to work for my forgiveness on the plus side I have a sister in law and nephew to get to know now so that's good" Juliet said before someone knocked on the door. John went to open it and came back with the Chinese food they all grabbed a carton and dug in .
