While Valerie was eating, she noticed that "the big family" weren't eating that much. For some reason, she felt uneasy and then with her magic, makes a paper appear in Draco's hand under the table. He looked at her and got confused. She only looked at the paper and back to Draco. Then he opened the paper and read. It was written " We need to go. Speak later". He understood. They both were about to say their goodbye, but were interrupted when Lily asked a question:

- Uhh, Mrs. Valerie? - Lily asks

- Yes? - Valerie asks

- I don't want to intrude in your life, but is it true that you and Mr.Draco are goint to marry? - Lily asks. Then, everybody got confused and surprised, especially Harry and Diana (who were staring at the couple all night). Scorpius was the only one normal because he knew, but his father didn't want him to tell anyone, even Albus.

- Where did you hear about it? - Valerie asked suspicius

- Oh, I read on a journal. I just wanted to know because you are not wearing a ring.

Valerie and Draco looked at each other as if their eyes could speak, they both nodded and Valerie says:

- That's because it is in a safe place where no one, except Draco, can find.

- So, it's true?! - Harry and Diana ask aloud that even Valerie got scared.

- Yes, it is! How long will I have to repeat again? Even Scorpius knew - Valerie says

- You what?! - Albus yelled and everyone was watching Albus and Scorpius now.

- Well, I'm sorry for not telling. My father just wanted to keep it hidden, so that we could live in peace without the media on our tails- Scorpius says

Albus just crossed his arms over his chest and ignored Scorpius , who was unhappy with his friend's behavior.

- Alright, why don't we calm ourselves alright? Well, if they want to marry or not it's their life, no one here should interfere with it - Ginny says while looking at her family, specially Harry and Diana, who got embarrassed.

- Hasta que fin una persona me entiendes - Valerie exclaims happy

- Excuse me? What did you say? - Ginny asks confused.

- Well, it meant that I finally found someone who understands our situation - Valerie says.

- Oh, alright - Ginny says

Valerie and Draco watched the others talking while mentally elaborating a plan to get out of that dinner. The first because she doesn't feel good around "the big family". The second because he is already tired. Then, Valerie hears Albus saying to Scorpius:

- I need to tell you something very important, Scorpius.

- Really? What is it? - Scorpius asks

- I can't tell now - Albus says

- And why not? - Scorpius asks

- Because ... - Albus says

Valerie stands up. Everyone stops talking and stares at her, some glaring (Diana, Harry and Albus) already expecting what she's gonna say.

- Thank you for inviting us to this dinner, the meal was pretty good. But we must go now - Valerie speaks

- But already? Won't stay for the desert? - Ginny asks

"Desert? There were already lots of food and they are still gonna serve desert? I'm feeling like I was kind in a Hansel and Gretel fairytale" - Valerie thinks

- No thanks, Mrs. Potter. But, we really must go, right Draco?

- Yes, sure - Draco says

- Oh, really? Can't we stay for a bit longer? - Scorpius asks

- NO! - Draco and Valerie say at the same time

- Alright. Well, I guess I'll be going now, Albus. Bye - Scorpius says already standing up

Albus did not want to accept that and stood up too

- What if Scorpius stayed? - Albus asks

- What? - Valerie asks, Draco gets confused, Scorpius stays happy and the rest are paying attention to the four.

- He could sleep here - Albus tries to suggest.

- Look, Albus Potter, this is kind of you, but we really must be going now - Valerie says

- Why not, Valerie? He is your future stepson. You are on vacation to have fun. While "the couple" gets some time alone, Scorpius could have fun with his friends too - Diana says while smirking at Valerie

"You're lucky Diana that I'm trying to behave, because I would have wiped that smile off your face right now" - Valerie thinks

- Yes! Please, let me stay this night here? I promise I'll behave - Scorpius pleads to Valerie and Draco

- No! Alright! - Valerie and Draco say at the same time while Valerie looks at Draco betrayed again, for the second time now.

- Yes! Thank you, papa! And Valerie, I promise that nothing bad will happen! - Scorpius says happy while coming to hug Draco and Valerie.

- It's nothing. Just have fun and don't do something stupid, alright ? - Draco asks

- Yes, daddy! - Scorpius says

- Do you want that I take you guys to the door? - Ginny offers

- Yes, please! That would be great! - Draco says

The whole family walked Draco and Valerie to the door. Valerie thought that was pretty bizarre and noticed that the Weasleys and Potters were acting strange, totally different from what they usually are. She looked at Draco, but he was talking to Ginny while Harry only stared at him. Valerie saw Diana, who was behind Valerie, doing the same thing to her. She even shuddered after that.

" Something is totally off here. All these people arriving at the same place we went on vacation. They invited us to dinner. Have photos of us and all of them are even just walking us to the door. This family must be enchanted, possessed or are just very creppy" - Valerie thinks

They finally arrived at the door. While they were saying their goodbyes. Valerie took Scorpius by the arm while the others were talking to Draco or staring at him, except for two people, Diana and Albus. Both were following every move that Valerie and Scorpius make. But Valerie already expected that. She hugs Scorpius and whispers in his ear:

- Call me if something happens. Do anything to protect yourself. Use the bracelet if necessary, alright? - Valerie says while staring back at Diana and Albus. Scorpius laughts a bit and whispers back:

- You don't need to worry. I'll be with Albus. He wouldn't let anything happen to me. We would do everything for each other.

- I only hope "this everything" doesn't hurt you

- Valerie says

- Please, stop being so protective. Everything is fine, okay. We came here to have fun. Now, there are friends here that we can hang out too - Scorpius says

- Okay, you are right. Just have fun and don't do anything that I would, alright? - Valerie says while smiling at Scorpius

- I'll try - Scorpius laughs and then Valerie joins him

Everyone stops talking and looks at them. They see both Scorpius and Valerie laugh at something.

- Did I miss something? - Draco asks looking at them.

- Nothing at all, we were just talking - Valerie answers Draco

- Yeah, daddy! I was just assuring Valerie that she doesn't need to be so protective of me.

Everything is gonna be fine - Scorpius says

- We'll take good care of him, Draco. I promise - Ginny says

- Thank you! - Draco says

- I wouldn't let anything happen to him. I would hurt everyone who tried to mess with him. I'll protect him - Albus says

- Of course, you would - Valerie mumbles, while looking to the side

- Well, I guess it's time to go. Let's go Valerie? - Draco asks

- Yeah, let's go! - Valerie says

They were leaving the house when Ginny yelled Draco's name. Valerie and Draco turned around and she said:

- You forgot the brownies here! - Ginny yells

- You can stay with the brownies and eat them. I made more for us - Draco says while pointing to him and Valerie, who snorted

- If you say so ... good night! - Ginny and everyone yell good night to Valerie and Draco. Then, they entered their house. But two stayed watching the beautiful interaction between Draco and Valerie.

"They don't even imagine what we planned for them" - Diana thinks while watching Valerie

"I was such a jerk for not accepting Draco's hand at that time. But soon everything will change and I'll make up to him- Harry thinks while watching Draco

"I need him/her" - Harry and Diana think
