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.879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNEkCcraAI

“I-“879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPK3mLTIOwT
879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqx5D8FIFa
They both started, making Harry laugh but not Eliza. In the end, she nodded towards him to continue.879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJFTGhzMPL2
879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsEQTDUGIG
“How are you feeling?” He asked, already knowing the answer but he couldn’t think of anything at the moment.879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJelGiaW5Cz
879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ239j5auDQW
Eliza wasn’t stupid. She knew exactly what he wanted to ask her and she was ready to give him every answer he wanted.879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UP4FF3039
879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVC8zHaO169
“Fine. I’m just fine. I’m not going-“879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXmof1LLIL
879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvkQWn3xNu
“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.879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ojnRmjkx8

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. 879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpnD3mRG4DI
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.879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSh3LPeZcQc
879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQsZ3iJD8F
“Where is my father?” She asked in such a soft voice that Harry almost didn’t catch it.879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmaQ3xl0jP
879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUfwNcBG3H
“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.879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPS7Va5YZrh
879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ma2e862nG
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.879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF7Pc8D2WnY
879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGySb67f92g
“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?” 879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbG1XQ1rgvF
“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. 879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSb3XuMzgn
“I guess we are,” She admitted finally. “Thank you for saving my father, Harry.” Now that was a real shock for both of them.879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpp6e81Lk4X
879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6aHgyVHkEE
“You said it before, haven’t you? You never turn your back on your family. You and Sirius, you two are my family now.”879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTO2ncjZzJp
879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfBMue68d0B
“These are big words for someone who just met his godfather,” She joked.879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2o65jq92ME
879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGmlxCpC67t
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.879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN0PP1xQmTA
879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvvIvCrCnT
“What about the rest?” She asked, remembering Hermione and Ron. They were the only ones who knew the truth about her family except Harry.879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEaPZ6UKFR
879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0rHmSjMhB
“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..."879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1F2vimlZuP
Eliza bit her lip and leaned back, "It's probably for the best."879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqks7Mr3XjN
"What about you? You came with him, didn't you? What will you do next year?"879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6hQN7YPV8
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. 879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9GJsnAbGF
"There's still a lot I don't know. I need education, don't I?" 879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMckZjkhwgs
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.879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuxutVVsr8

“This year has been eventful,” Dean started before going into a full story about Quidditch. 879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNRPCH9yuW8
Seamus seemed to have already lost interest and Neville was only partially listening to Dean.879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSpUolXNVk
879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMJMSc3Jmq
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.879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW6CZNjFqh3
879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIAuElrf0fq
“Malfoy,”879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUFbEdJBAs
879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7MSF2daGs
“Molley,”879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3CSU2Ljpl
879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgFVdYDTBQ
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.879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18XS9qceXQ
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.879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yFMhAh3hh
879Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKRKgaTql3
Truthfully, Eliza couldn’t wait for her second year at Hogwarts.
