DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN HARRY POTTER.


Meanwhile, Amelia was sitting in the playroom, her arms wrapped around Harry and Susan. Harry was crying into her bosom and Amelia was patting his back.

Amelia was furious with Snape for having been so mean to Harry.

But there was at least one consolation; Dumbledore had finally understood just how much Harry had suffered.

It wouldn't matter if Minerva told him everything now.

But right now, her main focus was on Harry.

Just then, there was a low rumble of thunder outside.

Amelia picked up Harry and Susan and carried them to her bedroom.

Placing them on the bed, removing Harry's glasses and keeping them on a nightstand nearby, she lay down in between her children and wrapped her arms around Harry.

Harry was now sniffing.

Amelia began to whisper, "You're mine, you're mine…"

A minute later, Harry wrapped his arms around Aunt Amelia's neck and kissed her. She kissed him back.

She said, "You're mine. Do you know what that means? It means that you are mine forever and I will never let anyone take you from me."

Harry said softly, "Aunty, I love you."

Aunt Amelia responded lovingly, "I love you. You are mine and I love you. I will never ever give you up to anyone."

She then sat up and placing Harry in her lap, she said, "Harry, don't worry about what that mean man in black said. Your Daddy was a good man and he loved you very much."

Harry spoke, "He said that Mummy died…"

Amelia said, "Harry, don't ever think that your Mummy died because of you. She loved you so much, and you are such a wonderful child."

Harry said, "I am a bad boy."

Amelia replied, "No Harry my sweet, you are not a bad child! You are not a freak! You are not a burden! You are my baby and I love you."

Harry wrapped his arms and legs around her, and she kissed Harry on his forehead.

Susan sat up and hugged her, and Aunt Amelia hugged Susan back.

Amelia looked at the clock on her nightstand, and gasped when she saw that it was almost 7:45 pm.

"Oh my goodness," Amelia said, "You must be hungry. I'll quickly make something for you."

Amelia went downstairs to the kitchen and found the two snack bowls she had prepared earlier before Dumbledore's unexpected visit containing some crackers. Luckily, she had made sure to cover them earlier.

She gave Harry and Susan their snack bowls and they ate their crackers happily while Amelia set about making some soup.

Soon, the soup was done and she brought Harry and Susan to the dining room to eat.

Susan started eating, but Harry just stared at Amelia.

Amelia was about to eat herself when she noticed Harry just staring at her.

She said, "Harry, eat your soup. Otherwise, it'll get cold."

Harry just held out his arms towards her.

Amelia moved towards him and held him. Harry then whispered, "Sweepy."

Amelia said, "Sleepy Harry? Oh my baby, but you need to eat. Mummy would want you to eat right? Come, I will feed you."

With that, she placed her chair right next to Harry's stool and placed him on her lap. Moving Harry's bowl so that it was right in front of her, she took the spoon that was in the bowl and began to feed Harry, spoon by spoon of soup.

Soon, Harry had finished the bowl and was now nodding off.

He had had a long day.

After dinner, Amelia made the kids brush their teeth before going to bed. She read them a short story before putting them to bed. Harry fell asleep in the middle of the story, his head in Amelia's lap. She just smiled and patted his head before finishing the story for Susan who was still awake.

As she was tucking Harry under the covers in his bedroom, she whispered, "Harry my baby, you are mine and I won't let anyone take you from me. Sleep my baby, sleep."
