Chapter 26

It was the year's first time to Hogsmeid. Everyone was so excited, but Molly could hardly contain herself. She had been a good girl and not slept with anyone and it was driving her up the wall. She ran past all of the little kids so excited to go their first time. She looked around. Where was Micheal? "Micheal!" She nearly screamed, running up to her boyfriend and practically jumping on him, She was soon making out with him.

"Wait until we get to the hotel room alright?" Micheal said.

"Hotel. Right, let's go. Let's go right now," Molly said.

"Well someone missed me," Micheal said with a laugh.

"It's not funny. I haven't cheated on you at all and no sex for that long!" Molly complained. She let Micheal take her back to his hotel

….

Molly woke up, nude and next to her boyfriend."I love you, you know that? You're the only person I will not sleep around with. I've never had a boyfriend like that. It was hard, but I kept telling myself that I love you and need to stay away from sex with men. Let me tell you, there were plenty of guys who tried to sleep with me. It was hard, but I want to be with you, mind, soul and especially body. I really love you."

Micheal smiled, kissing her. "I love you too. I've never met a girl so proud and filled with so much confidence. You weren't like those girls who only cared about dating me because I was popular. You liked me for me. It sucks that we have to be so far apart." Micheal was quiet a moment. "I want you to come work with me when you graduate."

"What? Really? I'd love that," Molly said brightly. "Then we can be together all the time! And I like magical creatures. I'll work to get high grades in Care of Magical Creature class! I promise I'll work really hard in it."

Micheal smiled. "I know you will. You cousin, Luis, works with magical creatures too right?"

"Yeah, but only dagons," Molly said.

"I come across dragons sometimes, but we normally call someone in," Micheal said. He pinned her to the bed. "Ready for round two?

Dominique sighed. "My boyfriend is all he was in Russia!"

"So you're jealous of me and Cooper huh?" Rose said with a laugh.

"Well my boyfriend is off working too," Rosa said.

Roxanne jumped on Dominique. "You have me! Who cares about boyfriends?"

"I'm right here,"Jimmy, Roxanne's boyfriend said.

"Awe, I love you too huh, but what me and Dom have is something no one can compare to!" Roxanne said.

Jimmy sighed. "Fine. Fine. Whatever."

"You're just jealous, but that's okay. I like you a lot too," Roxanne said with a smile. "So we're good right?"

"Yeah we're good,"Jimmy said.

"Come on, let's go shopping!" Dominique said with a smile.

The girls soon were shopping, dragging the boys along, making them carry everything.

"I miss Chloe coming out with us," Roxanne said.

"Yeah but she married now. She wants to spend this time her husband," Dominique said.

"Yeah that's true. It must be nice to be married,"Roxanne said. "Dominique, we should get married!"

Dominique laughed. "I don't think that's legal."

"Well with hell with the legal system. I love you, you love me, why can't we get married?"

"Um, what about me?" Jimmy asked. "And Dominique don't you have a boyfriend in Russia?"

"I knew it, you are jealous!" Roxanne said. "We can still be a couple, but I'll never love someone as much I love Dominique."

"Well then I want out of his relationship," Jimmy said.

"You're breaking up with me?" Roxanne asked.

"Yes. I don't want to date someone who loves a family member as much as you love Dominique." Jimmy said, leaving the group.

"I can't believe he just dumped me! I really liked him,"Roxanne said with a sigh. "but if they don't understand our love I guess it's good to leave now before things go too serious."

"Yeah, you've only been dating for about a week," Dominique said.

"Yeah so it's no big loss,"Roxanne said.

"Why isn't Lily with us?" Dominique asked.

"She's off with Scorpius," Roxanne said.

"Well I hope they're having fun,"Dominique said with a sigh.

"Rose, are your cousins always like this?" Cooper said.

"Yeah. It's best to just ignore them."Rose said.

"Yeah they're always like that," Rosa said.

"Your family is odd," Cooper said.

"I know right?" Rose said. "But I love them all greatly."

"Family is good," Cooper said. "I have an older brothers so I kind of get it. Your family is huge though. It must nice to know you have someone to help you if things are bad. Nothing is stronger than family."

Rose smiled. "Yeah. I love them all and you're right, there is always someone there to help me if I need it."

"You have me now too," Cooper said, kissing Roses. "And I'll always be here for you."

Rose blushed. "A-and you'll always have me too."

Cooper laughed, "You're cute when you blush."

"S-stop it," Rose said, blushing more.

"Ew get a room you two," Roxanne said with a laugh.

"But-I-" Rose looked down.

"Come on, we're kidding," Dominique said.

"Yeah if anyone needs to get a room it's you two," Cooper said with a smirk.

"Maybe, but right now we're having fun with you guys1" Roxanne said. "I'm still sad that Jimmy dumped me. Me! I mean, I'm a good catch aren't I?"

"I think you're perfect," Dominique said, hugging her sister. "Though no one will love you like I love you."

""I suppose. You have a boyfriend though," Roxanne said.

"Yeah but he's all away in Russia," Dominique complained. "Besides, he can never love me the way you do"

"Guy's left's just go eat or something. I've had enough of you love fest," Rosa said.

"Fine. Fine," Roxanne said.

"Food does sound good," Dominique agreed.

"It's nice, just the two of us," Lily said. She was siting with Scorpius just outside of two. Lily leaned against her boyfriend. "No one telling us that we shouldn't be together. No talk about qudditch or anything like that. It's just you and me."

Scorpius pulled Lily closer. "I love you Lily." He then kissed her.

"L-love?" Lily' was suddenly bright red.

"I'm sorry. Do you not feel that way? I'm sorry I shouldn't have said anything," Scorpius said.

"No that's not it. I love you too. It's juts that no guy had ever said that to me before," Lily explained. "I'm so happy to hear you so that. I didn't think I'd ever you say that. I guess I was worried that you'd leave me for some pure blood Slytherin girl and leave me alone."

"I can't stand a lot of the pure blood Slyhern. They care too much about being perfect and only dating other pure bloods. It's sickening. There a first year, Kara Goyle, that my parents want me to worry. She's only a first year. She's in Gyffindor. I heard there was a howler sent to her by her by her parents for ending up in Gryffinndor. I head Chloe is looking after her. I don't want to think what would have happened if I was was in Gryffindor. It's bad enough in my parents' eyes that I'm dating you, someone who is not just a Gyrffindor but a Potter as well. They really want us to break up, but I'd risk being disowned to be with you."

"I'm hope you don't get disowned because of me," Lily said.

"I'm their only child. They wouldn't disown me," Scorpius said. "They need an heir. Unless they suddenly have another child, what I don't see happening, I'm all they got."

"I guess that makes sense," Lily said. "But it's so sad. I wish your parents can see that we're going to stay together no matter what they want. I mean, my dad doesn't like me dating yo u, bu ht doesn't to stop it. Oh was my late Uncle Rom against us being together." Lily started to cry. "I miss my Uncle Ron so much. Why did he have to die? He left Hugo and Rose and Hermione behind. What if it had been my dad that died? I don't think I could handle ti dad died."

"You're dad won't die. He's probably the strongest wizard in the world No one will be able to kill him," Scorpius said.

"I hope you're right. I mean, the dark wizard is doing something. I don't know if it's connected, but Alek's family was killed., along with two aurors. It would have to be a strong wizard to do that. I don't know why they left Alek alive, but I'm glad he lived through it. As far as I know, they don't know who did it. Alek was too traumatized to be able to say much about the attack. I hope they find who did it. It's scary to know that someone with that much power is still out there, possibly killing more people."

"I wouldn't worry too much. Your dad and the other aurors will find who did this, They're good at their job. So don't worry so much. Besides, I'm here and I'll always protect you from everything that could harm you," Scorpius said.

Lily, who was still crying, "Thank you. I'm counting on you then."

"No one would be stupid enough to attack Hogwarts so we're safe here," Scorpius said.

"Hogwarts has been attacked before. What if it's attacked again? Lily said. "It's scary."

"I know, but," Scorpius wasn't sure what to say. "I'll protect you. You're technically pureblood, so they have no reason to kick you out of school if it's taken over.'

"But I'm a Potter. That's enough of reason for them to hurt or kill me" Lily said. "If the school is taken over, I'm going on the run. We'll figure out who the dark lord is and we'll stop them. Like what happened before. The final attack could be at Hogwarts."

"I don't know. James has a DATDA's club he's teaching powerful spells so they can he ready if Hogwarts is ever attacked,"Scorpius said. "I'm thinking of joining it. Anything I can learn to protect you I want to know."

"James doesn't want me to join. He said he'd protect me if something, and he's afraid I'll hurt myself on the spells," Lily said.

"He's letting his family bias is stopping him from seeing how it would help you learn this stuff. It could really help you if you knew these spells," Scorpius said.

"I know, but I'm paying close attention to DATDAs class, so that helps," Lily explained. "Scorpius what do you want to do after school?"

"What? I always thought I'd work for the ministry."

"I want work with animals. Like, cat and dogs, not magical creatures, just creatures. I like magical creatures too, but I'd want to work with normal animals," Lily explained. "Maybe a vet or something like that."

"That sounds wonderful. I'm sure you'll be great with animals," Scorpius said with a smile. "And you can work any where you want to."

"Well I'll have to stay close to you won't I?" Lily asked.

Scorpius smiled. "That would be nice. "

"Everything is going to be okay right?" Lily asked, looking down.

"Everything is going to be okay."

"What should we do?" Albusa saked Alek.

"Let's go out in the country side where it can be just us,"Ale asked.

"You don't want to see any of my cousins?" Albus asked, "or other people on the quiddich team?"

"I like it wen it's just us." Alek said.

"Well okay."

They left the small city and saw Lily and Scorpius. "Let's avoid them," Alek said.

Albus nodded. They were soon off in another corner. "How are you doing? I mean, with your parents' death. Y-you don't have to answer if you don't wan to. I just don't want to feel you have to deal with it all alone."

"They weren't my parents. They told me they took me in as an infant, but they weren't my biological family." Alek shook his head. "but still miss them. They were the only family I knew. It doesn't matter they weren't my real parents." He shook his head. "At least they got that out before they were killed."

"I'm sorry," Albus said.

"It was awful. They just killed, like they were noting but cattle. I don't know why they didn't kill be too, but I'm happy they didn't," Alek said. "Once they killed Victor and Leon, and my parents, I really thought I was going to die too. But they didn't kill me, they just left. They were waring all black with a silver mask, so I couldn't tell who they were."

"Dark cloths and silver masks? That sounds a lot like Voldimort's old men. It might have been Neo-Deatheaters. I over head my dad talking about them. He thinks the followers of Voldimort were banding together under a knew dark wizard is as strong, if not stronger, than Voldimort."

"I wouldn't worry about it," Alek said.

"Why not?"

"Because you're safe. I can't explain but you're safe."

"Do you know more than you're telling me?" Albus asked.

"Don't worry about it. Just trust me. Nothing bad is going to happen to you," Alek said. Before Albus could protest, Aek kissed him, making him stop talking.

When they pulled away, "I love you," Albus said. "You sure I"ll be okay no matter what?"

"Yes. Just trust me."

"I trust you," Albus said.
