Trains and fights
I stepped into the compartment and sat down, I didn't say anything I knew that Harry didn't want to talk about the fight with Mrs. Weasley, and I know I should be upset but I smiled through the fight.
FLASHBACK:
Mrs Weasley came over to Harry and me and said, "Why didn't you come to your birthday brunch? You should have come and spent it with your family."
"I did," Harry said, "Then I had a couple of appointments."
Harry grabbed my hand and pulled me into the train. We could hear Mrs Weasley's yells.
END FLASHBACK.
I looked at Harry and sighed. I wanted my baby, but it is better for her to be at Hogwarts in her secret room, with Toes and Winky. I sighed again. Harry looked up at me then sighed too, "You want her here."
"So do you." I said. "Well, we have a meeting and we must not be late, let's go." I said then made my way to the Heads Compartment.
We walked in silence except when we were helping the younger kids with things like getting their trunks in the rack, or breaking up a fight, or stopping them from them from playing exploding snap and vanishing the goo and repairing the holes.
I got to the compartment and only one person was in there. I didn't really look to see who it was; I just started sorting through the notes. "You're a bit early don't you think?" I questioned them.
"Yes but I couldn't find you so I sat in here, I knew you were coming." She said. I looked up and saw Hermione smiling at me.
"Hermione!" I yelled and grabbed her in a hug. "How was your summer?"
"Really good for the most part. I went to France again with my parents, but then I got an owl from Ronald telling me not to ever talk to you. I owled him back asking why, and he said that you were um, having a little one, I said if she is, she needs support not to be pushed away. He said that I was choosing you over him, and I said I can't choose between my friends. Then he said, if I still considered you my friend, then he wasn't." Hermione told me. "I actually apperated over there and said to him, if he was going to be this much of an arse because of this then I don't want him as a friend."
"Oh, 'Mione, I'm sorry that you lost a friend over me." I told her. "But, I am kind of glad that you feel that way, we want you to be the Godmother. Her name is Lilia Jade; she has red-y burgundy hair, and her daddy's eyes. She's beautiful."
"So, who is her daddy?" Hermione asked.
I bit my lip and Harry, who had walked in just before I finished the description said, "Me. She looks a lot like my mum."
"Oh Harry, you really should not sneak up on me!" Hermione said. "I would love to be her Godmother."
"We have a meeting to do, so we can have the sappy moment later." I said to them and the compartment door opened and there was Ron. "Ronald."
"Tabitha." He said back. "Hermione. Hey Harry, why'd you not come to the brunch? Mum was raging after you didn't show."
"I had better things to do." Harry replied and grabbed the parchment out of my hand.
"Like what? Hang out with scarlet women?" Ron asked nastily.
"No, I had appointments." Harry said, "And who are you referring to as scarlet woman?"
"Our Head Girl. I mean, she's already having a kid." Ron said pointing.
"You know it's rude to point." I said, "And she was born on the fifteenth of August. Harry, her name is Lilia, may I call her Lily sometimes, or would you prefer me not too?"
Harry looked thoughtful for a moment then replied, "You may, so long as I get to see her."
"Of course you can see her, I'll have her brought here after the meeting." I said. "Look everyone is here."
"Hello everyone, I am this year's Head Boy. I don't know why I got the position, but I have it. This is Tabitha Allen, I suggest that if you value your bodies, and or lives, don't call her Tabitha, call her Tibby." Harry introduced.
"Okay, now that you know who we are, we want to know who you are, so we are going to go around the room and everyone introduce yourselves." I told them. I pointed to Hermione who was beside me.
"Hi, I'm Hermione Granger; I'm in Gryffindor, and seventh year." She told everyone.
"Hi, my name is Joanne Kirk. I'm a fifth year Ravenclaw."
"Erica Marks, Fifth year Hufflepuff,"
"Fifth year Slytherin, Kelly Zambini."
"Balize Zambini, seventh year Slytherin."
"Zacharias Smith, sixth year Ravenclaw."
"Colin Creevy, sixth year Gryffindor."
"Hannah Abbot, seventh year Hufflepuff."
"Ernie McMillan, seventh year Hufflepuff."
"Pansy Parkinson, seventh year Slytherin."
"Terri Boot, seventh year Ravenclaw."
"Cho Chang, seventh year Ravenclaw."
"Ron Weasley, seventh year Gryffindor."
After Ron the people were all the new ones and the one that were slightly late so they had to sit there. When everyone introduced themselves, I told them the basic, their jobs, when the next meeting was. Things like that. Then I dropped a bomb. "We will be doing rounds with partners, but those partners won't be from your house, when I make the schedule, you will see who your partner is. It will always be boy girl, and from different house."
"That's not fair, we should work by house!"
"Yeah, I don't want to work with some of these people!"
"I don't care!" I shouted. "That's the way it is. You do not get to chose who. I do. Get used to it. They will be the same year, so you should know them at least a little. You are assigned a partner, I won't be changing them."
Harry was nodding through the whole thing. "There are two sets of partners every night. A Fifth year partnership will always have an older partnership doing rounds with them. Tibby and I will fill the two empty nights. I think that's all unless you have questions."
A few people put up their hands; I glanced around and called on Erica, "I heard a roomer at the end of last year that you were having a baby, I was wondering if it was true?"
I sighed; I knew that some one would ask. "Okay, I did have a baby, her name is Lilia. Anything else?"
"Where is she?"
"In a safe place." I told them.
"Who's the father?"
I paled, "I would rather not say right now."
I heard Ron mutter, "Yeah, because you don't know who the bloke is because you've done it with too many."
"Ten points from Gryffindor. Anymore assumptions? By the way, I do know who her father is, it is just that we have discussed it and he would rather not tell anyone yet." I said.
"She's mine." I heard Harry say.
"Harry! I thought that you weren't going to say anything yet!" I said to him.
"I wasn't until my ex-best mate decided to be rude to my child's mother." Harry said to both me and Ron. "Any more questions?"
"What does she look like?"
"She has her daddy's eyes and her hair is the same as her grandma's." I said with a smile. I heard all the girls sigh, I giggled.
"It's kind of sad though, she won't ever get to meet her Grandparents."
"Thanks to Voldemort." Harry said. Many people flinched at the name. "Fear of a name only increases the fear of the thing itself; I encourage you to use his name. It's made up anyway. You could call him by his real name, Tom Riddle."
Many people were shocked when they heard that it was a made up name. Some still looked a little fearful.
"Any more questions? About being a prefect?" I asked. When no one said anything I dismissed them, "Oh, and Ron, detention with Flitch."
Ron looked murderous but left. Hermione shook her head. "He is so childish."
"Yup, I wonder if he'll ever grow up." I said.
"Okay," Hermione pulled out her wand and closed and locked the door. "Show me my Goddaughter."
Harry laughed and called, "Winky!"
With a pop an elf in a pure white pillow case appeared in front of him, "Yes Mister Harry Potter sir? What is it that Winky can do for you?"
"Can you bring Lilia here for a moment?" Harry asked.
"Of course sir!" the elf disappeared and then reappeared a moment later with a bundle in her arms. "Here is Miss Lilia."
Harry took the little bundle in his arm and smiled down at her. "Hey baby." He whispered.
Hermione walked over to Harry and whispered, "May I?" Harry handed her my baby and watched. I watched as Lilia smiled at Hermione as she made faces. I smiled, glancing at Harry I saw that he was smiling too.
