(Disclaimer: I don't own Harry Potter or the characters only Serene and her family.)
Ohmygosh let me just say I am so so so so sorry for not updating in what... a year? almost I know alot of people have either put this story on their alerts or favourited I have a specific folder in my inbox just for all the story favouriting and alerts I get for my stories. I love that it has so many and I feel ashamed to not have worked on any of my stuff in so long.
so here is Finally the third chapter to my Harry potter story Waking Dream. Review if you feel like.
Italics mean memories.
"Mrs. Lily guess what!"
"What Serene?"
"Daddy gave me this necklace, isn't it pretty?"
"Yes it's very pretty Serene,"
"How's my brother?"
"He's fine, just fine,"
Just fine, that's what he was when he was still in your womb, Safe and not known. My god brother, in theory.
"Merry Christmas!"
"Oh merry Christmas, have you opened your presents?"
"Of course,"
Christmas is gloomy; the happy smiles as people opened their presents on this morning should be washed away.
"Merry Christmas Serene," I'm only happy on this day for a few minutes in a long time.
"Merry Christmas Remy," I held a neatly wrapped box out to him. In exchange I got my only present for this holiday.
"You've changed Serene," I looked up at Remus as I put my new bracelet on, my present. "You used to be full of cheer and your smiles could go on forever, to anyone even if they didn't deserve it,"
"My smiles are reserved for only two people now," I smiled to Remus, one of my old smiles, my second present for him.
"Did she even get any presents?"
"I don't think so; there wasn't any with her name,"
"She could have gotten plenty just didn't want us Gryffindors to see,"
"Probably,"
The words mean nothing to me; I don't want presents from anyone but Remus and Sirius. I don't need something petty without meaning from my parents; I would just throw it away.
"She never seems to smile," I listened more hearing Harry's voice.
"I wonder why," his female companion was with him. Granger I think is her name.
"Maybe her teeth are rotten,"
"Ronald that's stupid, her teeth are fine. She talks, she just doesn't smile,"
"Hermione, maybe she doesn't have anything to smile about,"
"Or maybe she thinks she's too good to give us smiles,"
"Ronald,"
I had a dream, in which Harry's parents had never died, and Sirius was not put blame for something he did not do. I wonder now, if my life would be different, would I smile for friends that I don't have?
"It doesn't matter," I muttered, nothing will change the past, and I have nothing to look toward the future for.
Potions was my last class, Snape picked on me worse than ever, he was grumpy, from which I know not.
"BLACKWATER!" it's my fifth year, which means OWLS. I don't need to take them to know what I want to do. I'll become an Auror so I can put the death eaters that deserve it in Azkaban.
I don't care how I did on the tests either, though I'm sure I did well. On the train I sat alone, in silence reading a book, at least I wanted too.
"Hey Blackwater, your dads going to kill you," I looked up to see Malfoy smug as can be looking down on me.
"Really, why? Because you told your father and he told my father that I wasn't in Slytherin?"
"Yep," I shook my head at him.
"You really shouldn't be proud of telling on someone, it's pathetic,"
"You filthy blood-traitor, your just like that uncle of yours," my hands balled into fists. He was getting me very angry, it doesn't help that Remus won't be back next year, and Harry found out all about Sirius being his god-father.
"Goodbye Malfoy," I growled at him glaring and slammed my compartment door shut.
"He's so cute!"
"Isn't he, our Harry is such a stunning little boy,"
"Do you think I could hold him for a second Mrs. Lilly?"
"You can,"
"Yay, oh wow he's so tiny,"
"Serene I want you to have something to look after for Harry,"
"Anything for my baby brother!"
"It's a bracelet, give it to him when you know it's the right time,"
"Okay!"
This bracelet will be given back to him as soon as school starts again, I should not be holding something for someone whom does not like me, nor cares for me.
"YOU VILE WRETCHED GIRL! HOW DARE YOU BECOME A GRYFFINDOR," I didn't say anything, I would only be hurt more, and I wanted to be able to tell him I would not become a death eater.
"You should not be allowed anywhere; you're disgusting I can't believe I gave birth to such a thing,"
"I'm sorry you feel that way Mother," I muttered, my things were packed and at Remus'. I was just leaving.
"Don't call me mother,"
"I understand," I shivered a bit before looking at my father. "I will not become a death eater, my choice has been made it will not change. I understand if you disown me,"
"Wench! Don't ever come back!" I was given a large bruise on my cheek and also cursed close to death. I tried to stay awake.
"Don't touch her, you've disowned your daughter you've no more right to hit her!" Remus came up to me and picked me up taking me in his car and driving me to the station.
"Remus, I told you not to intervene,"
"No you told me, you would probably die. Sirius yelled at me until I came here to stop it,"
"Sirius did?" I looked up at him very much awake.
"Yes, he wouldn't let his little girl be hurt anymore," I gave a soft smile; I was very much awake now.
"I guess God didn't want me to die today, he sent me an Angel for the time being," Remus chuckled at me.
"Angel, I suppose he could be,"
"See you Remus,"
"Serene, you will be coming back to Sirius' house for summer, and every summer after," I smiled again, walking into the train, and into a new beginning.
