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.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbuywNXtdz

“I-“932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaUJ5RKxOs8
932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7k7LyZSfj
They both started, making Harry laugh but not Eliza. In the end, she nodded towards him to continue.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1EpSTkDPen
932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafgRgJWItE
“How are you feeling?” He asked, already knowing the answer but he couldn’t think of anything at the moment.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj3b1XI9TP8
932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIoxek566F
Eliza wasn’t stupid. She knew exactly what he wanted to ask her and she was ready to give him every answer he wanted.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzzUICHCnw
932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1unX176Tne
“Fine. I’m just fine. I’m not going-“932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjwAF4V2NA
932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDI2zR3jnx
“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.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUZr4tha5u

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. 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqdmWzU9gy
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.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kuQgNXRss
932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxgrzlplH9
“Where is my father?” She asked in such a soft voice that Harry almost didn’t catch it.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztR8dpLSWF
932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoL4xxiCI9Q
“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.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanuSoYKSDN
932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HkQtYwWjc
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.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mSCBHPDEJ
932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2xSCc8Avw
“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?” 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJWb9vK3uA
“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. 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkGn3rcJ2b
“I guess we are,” She admitted finally. “Thank you for saving my father, Harry.” Now that was a real shock for both of them.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARMs2oxiXz
932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3olOLv5RfE
“You said it before, haven’t you? You never turn your back on your family. You and Sirius, you two are my family now.”932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCnPJvqsMY
932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbYrgI7H84
“These are big words for someone who just met his godfather,” She joked.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWnCSFJ5bc
932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66Gnyu8Fqg
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.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVsYlCLniG
932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6Kv3zi08H
“What about the rest?” She asked, remembering Hermione and Ron. They were the only ones who knew the truth about her family except Harry.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbBXcKlx40

“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..."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1JCbzHrV6
Eliza bit her lip and leaned back, "It's probably for the best."932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVvpxah8fb
"What about you? You came with him, didn't you? What will you do next year?"932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAEHTfnXGk
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. 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZWZShScSi
"There's still a lot I don't know. I need education, don't I?" 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyFypYOVC7
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.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnF1yZn6UU

“This year has been eventful,” Dean started before going into a full story about Quidditch. 932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdksOlmxbP9
Seamus seemed to have already lost interest and Neville was only partially listening to Dean.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiorWFwWfQ
932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0CqVUvg7q
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.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41wvY0XbJa
932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qwuXU0XVi
“Malfoy,”932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbiU16Ey1e
932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DJvTBr4nN
“Molley,”932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DoOrvvLfR
932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYWGUijSqpJ
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.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbvJ7jFUU2
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.932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNVxKj0tMs9
932Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsIdnhUgpv
Truthfully, Eliza couldn’t wait for her second year at Hogwarts.
