Next day, Eliza met Harry in the Common Room. She only showered and changed into her robes before walking out, avoiding the aftermath. Unfortunately, it didn’t work as she wanted and she met Harry when she last expected.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvZXBD1afH

“I-“769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwf3Xa8roD
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSujvVQousq
They both started, making Harry laugh but not Eliza. In the end, she nodded towards him to continue.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrvjdlghLk
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bKdQRYqPp
“How are you feeling?” He asked, already knowing the answer but he couldn’t think of anything at the moment.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7ANpHzCr7
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSKW4aZ9QLy
Eliza wasn’t stupid. She knew exactly what he wanted to ask her and she was ready to give him every answer he wanted.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPpff3Sgfx
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lbB2jxc1K
“Fine. I’m just fine. I’m not going-“769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOM9Pcc3E5
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBAE13QSZFW
“You don’t have to apologize for not telling me who you are. We both know I wouldn’t have reacted well. But we know the truth now,” He started, very serious and hopeful for some reason.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXsJ3DhG8F

The brunette sighed and sat on the couch, feeling fidgety. Harry sat on her other side, his eyes boring into her face. He really wanted her to say something to him, something rude even just so he could assure himself that they were still friends. 769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqGooeNyrw
Sirius was her father and his godfather; that couldn’t bring more happiness to him really. He had a family that he didn’t know about, one that was ready to welcome him with open arms.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6xvmR4nLg
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4vyI349wy
“Where is my father?” She asked in such a soft voice that Harry almost didn’t catch it.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYt37Jxkjv
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cNy2uvuLJ
“He’s alright. We used Hermione’s time turner to help Sirius escape with Buckbeak,” He whispered fully aware that it wasn’t exactly the place for such conversations.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xd9bL1DKY
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSPdQO90GX
Hearing that her father was safe ceased her worries. If Sirius was fine then Remus should be fine, as well. It was just a matter of time for her godfather to recuperate.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ0XSwK4kp3
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9Y94jk8lz
“You know, Remus told me a lot about their adventures in Hogwarts and how troublesome our fathers used to be,” She started, making Harry chuckle softly. “He told me we resemble them so much... But are we friends?” 769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoE624IKGD
“I want to believe we are. We don’t have to be as close as our fathers but we can be friends. We are friends, aren’t we?” He asked. 769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6fJF25QwI
“I guess we are,” She admitted finally. “Thank you for saving my father, Harry.” Now that was a real shock for both of them.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrpPC2D0Rv
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvKrc0ic7W
“You said it before, haven’t you? You never turn your back on your family. You and Sirius, you two are my family now.”769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQwviD12Pi
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡricCHn31GB
“These are big words for someone who just met his godfather,” She joked.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMiUXBZESo
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVNZPhjdEI9
The atmosphere became lighter now that they admitted they won’t break their friendship after what happened. If anything, Harry looked quite happy with it.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyq1laXfJkJ
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVVR5pInAn
“What about the rest?” She asked, remembering Hermione and Ron. They were the only ones who knew the truth about her family except Harry.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3x684DCsnv
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVh1xWBNZ3
“They already got over it, believe me. If not, they will come to their senses in a few days and everything will be like before,” He was so sure of it, like they have been through that before. "Professor Lupin- he resigned. Snape told everyone that he's a werewolf and..."769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWOqJWC6me
Eliza bit her lip and leaned back, "It's probably for the best."769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XcQOQjMLa
"What about you? You came with him, didn't you? What will you do next year?"769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkR2GJ4T7aq
That was a question she asked herself already and the answer came from Dumbledore himself. She was a witch just like any other and the time she spent in Hogwarts was irreplaceable. 769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBhIcnWW6tD
"There's still a lot I don't know. I need education, don't I?" 769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKywZGnXo06
Harry smiled and nodded. That was a good enough answer for him.
The rest of the days passed quickly and Eliza found herself in front of Hogwarts Express between Dean and Seamus. She already talked to Remus and couldn’t help but accept the fact that he won’t return as a professor the next year. However, he assured her that Dumbledore won’t let anyone find out the truth about her family. She could return to Hogwarts for the rest of the years without a problem and he will be there for her, waiting at the other end of Hogwarts Express.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9EUW2hY6Vv

“This year has been eventful,” Dean started before going into a full story about Quidditch. 769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIo2sa5ppq
Seamus seemed to have already lost interest and Neville was only partially listening to Dean.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNjXaIUQZw
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWQ2n0KIZg
She sneaked out without a problem an hour later and walked in search for Harry. She wanted to ask him if he wanted to visit Sirius with her later in July but she met someone she completely forgot about.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCzKVKslgp
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYklN2NrR3
“Malfoy,”769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ17NIMlriQe
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCrezwq8FM
“Molley,”769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXU8QFyRy4
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJ8eBqB1W2
Thankfully, he didn’t say anything else and passed without touching her. But she couldn’t help wonder if Draco let his father know who he met in Hogwarts this year.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1lvW9aFvk
Actually, no; she really wanted Lucius Malfoy to know she was there. She wanted to meet him and ask him why Ophelia Molley was murdered and what kind of friendship they had before.769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrYE99Eld8
769Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdZg4OOMdGU
Truthfully, Eliza couldn’t wait for her second year at Hogwarts.
