'Till The End Darling

32. Off the hook

Narrators pov:

Y/n was growing quite tired of Sirius and Remus's constant watch on her. After her chat with Sirius the previous night in regards to her dream, she was not all that surprised that he had told Remus. The two of them had always been awfully close. But they were acting as though something were wrong with y/n and she hated it. They constantly kept an eye on her and it made her feel like some sort of freak. Consequently this dampened her mood, which did not go unnoticed by George.

"You allright love?" George asked quietly from besides her over breakfast.

"Fine" she smiled up at him "just nervous for Harry that's all"

It was the day of Harry's trial, him and Arthur had left just that morning. What with the reports in the daily prophet, and Fudge being a complete bafoon who wishes to lie to the public rather than protect them, all was quite up in the air. But It was safe to say that all occupants at 12 Grimmauld place were facing some sort of turmoil. Whether that be stress on behalf of Harry, or return to school,or even the Order itself. There's been no sign of Voldermort since the final task at Hogwarts, its almost as if he just vanished. Which of course doesn't help Harry's case, but also doesn't give the members much hope.

Sirius strode into the kitchen happily "the man of the hours here" he had his arm around Harry's shoulder. Arthur trailing behind.

"Harry youre back earlier than I thought" Hermione greeted excitedly

"Howd it go mate?" Fred asked.

Harry went to awnser but Sirius cut him off "he got off the hook!" He said proudly.

"He got off the hook!" Fred and George grinned to eachother.

"Dont let that give you two any ideas" Molly warned.

"How was it?" Y/n asked.

Harry took a seat at the table "fine, I would've been expelled if it weren't for Dumbledore"

"Dumbledore was there?" Ron asked.

"Yeah, the Minister didn't let me get a word in edge ways, but like I said Dumbledore sorted it. Though I tried to talk to him after the hearing and he completely ignored me" Harry said glumly.

"Hes a busy man Harry, I'm sure he meant nothing by it" Remus assured.

Y/n thought she heard something by the front door so she slipped away from the table and headed to see what it was. She reached the front door where a pile of Hogwarts letters lie. Letting out a sigh y/n gathered them together and brought them to the kitchen. Truth be told she was feeling quite nervous to return. After everything that happened last year, and the state of current events she just couldn't see how this academic year was going to be half decent at all.

"Our Hogwarts letters have arrived"

"Oh brilliant" Hermione grinned

Y/n laid them out on the table for each individual.

"No way" Ron muttered while reading his letter.

"What is it dear?" Molly asked

Hermione took his letter from him and read it "No it can't be? You of all people a prefect"

"Youre a prefect?" Y/n cried in shock.

"I am too" Hermione added.

"Merlins beard, well done Ronald" Arthur smiled.

"Are you sure love?" Molly asked scanning over his letter. "I can't believe it all my boys have been Hogwarts prefects. I'm so proud darling"

"Well what are Fred and I, her next door neighbours?" George whispered to y/n. Neither of the twins had made Prefects in fifth year, but it didnt matter much. Their talents lie elsewhere.
