Chapter VI
She felt her face turn red and her heart fall into her stomach. Was it that obivious, that an eleven year old could tell. Her son rolledhis eyes and snorted.Ginny covered her mouth with her hand, trying to surpress a giggle.
"That' s mean, Jamie." she said, swatting him on the back of the head. Harry chuckled and nodded. Hermione smiled weakly and stole a glance at her son; his posture hadn't changed.
"So, where is Mary?" she asked, trying to change the subject. Harry shruggled.
"Mary, come out here, please." he yelled, cupping his hands around his mouth. Sykes yawned as he walked back to the car and took out his backpack.
He heard the front door slam. He turned to get a look at their oldest daughter. He froze in his tracks. She was beautiful. She had long alburn red hair and the greenest eyes; she wore blue jeans shorts and a red tank top with a lion on it.He took a deep breath and regained control. He wasn't going to let anyone know he had faltered. She walked over to her parents and smiled.
"Hermione this is Mary." Harry introduced. "Mary, this is Hermione and her son, Sykes." he finished. His mom and the girl shook her hands. Then she turned to stare at him.
He was gorgious. She forgot herself for a moment and just stared at him. He cocked an eyebrow and smirked. Suddenly, she realized and put out her hand, just like her father.
"Hi, Sykes. It's nice to meet you." she said, smiling. He nodded and crossed his arms in front of his chest .
"Doesn't he remind you of Prof. Snape, Mary?" Lilian asked, breaking the silence. She looked him over. He did remind her of her potion master, but she couldn't say that, it was rude and mean.
"A little bite, but Prof. Snape is uglier." she replied, laughing softly.
