Chapter 5: Last Five
The next day, Hannah, Susan, Mandy, Hermione, and Adrian didn't go to potions or Defence against the Dark Arts. They avoided both of those teachers. The five girls could be found in the library. All the other girls acted normal around everyone, but the five left would never smile.
Harry and Ron took up skipping classes to find out what might be wrong, but everything was well hidden from them. Harry decided to ask anyone, who would listen, if they might know what is wrong. The first person he went to was Remus.
"Professor Lupin, I have a question." Harry waited until everyone else left, before asking.
"Go ahead and ask." Lupin sat on the edge of his desk.
"Well, Hermione and a few other girls are acting pretty weird. Do you know why?" Harry hesitated a little, but Remus was one of his greatest friends, and he was almost like a father, now that Sirius was gone.
"Actually, Harry, I want to know the same answer. Those girls are avoiding Severus and I."
"Alright, well thanks." Harry started to the door, but turned around near the door to give Lupin a little smile. "One of those girls asked me to leave this for you." Harry set a piece of parchment on the table. Then left. Lupin was curious about the paper, so he went to retrieve it. The note was not the same as always.
Look for the girl with the broken smile
Which one is she?
Mandy, Adrian, Hermione, Hannah, Susan
Remus stared at the note. This was the strangest one yet, and he even saw the person who left it. One of those girls had asked Harry Potter to give him the note. Harry must know.
Remus thought hard about it. Mandy was a tall, blonde hair, Ravenclaw, with blue eyes. Adrian was a Ravenclaw, with short brown hair, very short, but skinny. Smart Gryffindor with brown curly hair, brown eyes and very skinny was Hermione. Hannah and Susan are Hufflepuffs, with dark hair, both best friends. Remus settled on one girl who he had to ask. Adrian. In her third year, she had had a crush on him.
Remus walked out the door, heading to the library. When he got there, all of the girls were talking quietly in the corner, but there was an extra person. Harry was sitting next to Hermione and Hannah. Remus walked over to the table. The conversation silenced immediately.
"Hello," Remus looked at each face. Harry was the only one willing to meet his gaze.
"Hello Professor Lupin," Everyone chimed at once.
"Now, girls. Harry did give me the note and I must ask for Adrian to tell me, if she is the girl."
Adrian looked up to meet Remus' gaze. "I am not the girl, and I must tell you that you can ask us as many times as you would like today, but we will only tell you one person per day." At that, Adrian left the table and headed out of the library.
"One more down, four left." Remus could not tell who said this until she lifted her head. The girl was sitting in a corner and he had not noticed her before. Lavender Brown was looking at him. Hermione stood up and picked up all her stuff. Everyone else followed. Remus was left standing with Harry. Remus pulled out the list. Harry moved over next to him. "Professor Snape and I have been keeping track of every girl it could be. We crossed out all the girls we no it isn't." Remus picked up a quill from the table and crossed out Adrian's name.
Ginny Weasley-NO
Pansy Parkinson-NO
Luna Lovegood-NO
Hannah Abbott
Susan Bones
Lavender Brown-NO
Eleanor Branstone-NO
Mandy Brocklehurst
Millicent Bulstrode-NO
Emma Dobbs-NO
Hermione Granger
Morgan MacDougal-NO
Abby Nott-NO
Adrian Pucey-NO
Yvonne Hedlas-NO
"I think you might know which girl it is. Am I right?" Remus stuck the paper back in his pocket. He, then turned to look at Harry.
Harry nodded and said, "Yes I do know, and I will not tell. She would probably kill me, or hex me into oblivion." Harry started to laugh and Remus joined in.
