Chapter 42

Last Time:

"I need you Ally" Elena sobs. Alex nods and pulls her to the statue. They sit down and Alex holds her cousin as Elena rests her head on Alex's shoulder, "what time is it?"

"They should be coming down for breakfast soon" Alex tells her rubbing her arm, "so around 8. Classes start at 9 and we go to Potions with Slughorn. Then it will be Herbology, Care of Magical Creatures, lunch, Transfiguration, Defence Against the Dark Arts and Charms. Then it will be dinner" Elena nods, "I will ask dad and Aunt Jenna if you and I can stay here this weekend if you would like"

"Maybe even Jer?"

"Of course" Alex smiles, which Elena returns.

Neither of them realise Jeremy standing behind them smiling. He is going to ask Jenna before Elena and Alex.

Now:

As Defence Against the Dark Arts arrives, Bonnie, Jeremy and Elena follow Alex to the classroom. As they walk in, they see a man standing at the front of the classroom with greasy black hair and a glare. The glare disappears for a moment.

"Good afternoon Sev" Alex smiles. The man smiles back and the two hugs.

"Nice to see you again Ally"

"You too Sev. Sev these are Jeremy, my cousin, Bonnie, Elena's ex best friend, and Elena, my cousin" the man nods at them.

"Hello. I'm Severus Snape. I teach Defence Against the Dark Arts" Snape introduces himself to them.

"Hello" they say together. Elena catches Alex's eye.

"You three will be joining us today. You just stay seated as Alex and the rest of the class do their tasks" Bonnie, Jeremy and Elena nods and follows Alex to a group of three desks.

"You guys will be sitting here. Me and Hermione are sitting next to you and Ron and Harry are sitting in front of you" Alex takes her seat as Elena sits down on her right and Hermione walks in and sits on her left. Jeremy sits next to Elena and Bonnie sits next to him. Harry and Ron walk in and sit down. But Harry kisses Alex before sitting.

"Good to see you babe" Harry smiles. Alex rolls her eyes.

"Be yourself, not an American this time" Alex sticks out her tongue and Harry took that to his advantage and kisses her.

As class starts, Snape beings to talk.

"Ok class" Harry and Alex pull away from the kiss and faces Snape blushing, "today we are going to learn how to bring someone back from the dead, but in spirit form, for 24 hours" Alex sneaks a look at her cousins and Bonnie. Bonnie looks shocked, Jeremy is smiling and Elena is... crying?

"What's wrong?" Alex whispers to Elena. Elena looks at Alex and shakes her head.

"Nothing. I'm just surprised" Alex smiles.

"I'm going to bring your parents back so you, Jer and Aunt Jenna can have a REAL goodbye" Elena smiles and hugs Alex tightly.

"I love you Alex"

"I love you too Elena" Alex hugs Elena back. Snape sees this family moment and makes the class stand up and get into groups to try the spell.

~A&H~

That night, after Alex practiced the spell a few thousand times, Elena gave Alex Miranda's and Shane's important processions.

"I rise thy to say your final goodbyes, to see your family move on and sigh" Jenna, Elena and Jeremy sees Shane and Miranda standing in front of them in spirit form.

"Hello Jenna, Elena and Jeremy" Miranda smiles, "hello Alex. Nice to see you again. Your mother is doing just fine" Alex smiles.

"Thank you for taking care of her Aunt Miranda and Uncle Shane" Shane smiles at the family.

"We are perfectly fine you guys. Jenna, you are NOT a bad guardian. You are raising 3 teenagers. 2 are normal while the other is a witch. Alex has to bounce between the school and Hogwarts. You are doing an amazing job. Jeremy, don't do what I would have done. I would have turned to drugs. You need to turn to Elena, Jenna and Alex if you ever miss us. Knowing Alex, she will use magic to bring us here to speak with you. Elena, you need to know that Bonnie was unable to tell you. She is a Salem witch and they are not allowed to tell people. No witch or wizard can tell a mortal or muggle that they are magical. It's against the law. Alex wasn't supposed to tell you, but she did. You would have gone to wizard prison called Azkaban" Alex groans.

"That place sucks! Sirus Black was locked in there and he escaped" Alex smirks, "if I had to go there, that would be gross but cool!" Jenna smacks Alex in the head to stop her random comments.

"Stop talking and get to bed Alex. You need to catch up on sleep" Alex groans but does what she is told. She knows that Elena, Jeremy and Jenna will stay up and spend as much time with Miranda and Shane as they can.

Sorry that, that was short. It needed to be. Please review!
