Stubborn Attraction 2 ~H.P

42"

(Order of the Phoenix)

Viola absolutely despised Grimmauld place. It was dark and dirty and just down right depressing.
She spent most of her time with Hermione and trying to co-exist with Ron. There were a few arguments every now and then but none that were particularly terrible. Viola liked spending time with Sirius, the two seemed to instantly click. Remus wasn't surprised to see it considering Rosaleé and Sirius were practically the same person and Viola was a near carbon copy of Rosaleé.

Molly Weasley often kept her entertained by cooking and baking with her to pass time as there wasn't much to do.

Hermione, Ron and Viola all sat in a spare bedroom playing a game of exploding snap.

"I win again" Ron bragged

"Bullshit" Viola replied "you pushed me out of the way"

"Since when?" Ron challenged

"Since five seconds ago-"

The door to the bedroom opened slightly revealing Harry stood there.

"Harry!" Hermione shouted jumping up and colliding with him as she threw herself into a hug making Harry stumble back slightly "are you alright? We overheard them talking about the dementor attack. You must tell us everything"

"Let the man breathe Hermione" Said Ron standing up from the game and walking over to Harry and Hermione.

"And this hearing at the Ministry, it's just outrageous!" She continued "I've looked it up. They can't expel you. It's completely unfair"

"Yeah. There's a lot of that going around at the moment. So what is this place?"

"It's headquarters" Viola spoke up, making her presence known for the first time.

"Lupin? What are you doing here?" He asked shooting Ron a look

"Mum and Dad are part of the order so here I am. Not that I want to be"

"The order of the Phoenix" Hermione clarified "it's a secret society. Dumbledore formed it back when they fought you-know-who"

"Couldn't have put any of this in a letter, I suppose?" Harry asked bitterly "I've gone all summer without a scrap of news"

"We wanted to write mate, really, we did only-"

"Only what?"

"Only Dumbledore made us swear not to tell you anything"

"Why would he say that? Maybe I could of help? I am the one who saw Voldemort return-"

"You've only just gotten here and your crying about not being sent a letter? I think it's time you reevaluate your priorities Potter" Viola interrupted resting against a dresser "there's much bigger things than your friends not sending you letters over the summer"

Hermione and Ron sent Viola a warning glare.

"What? It's true"

"Harry!"

"Fucking hell!" Viola exclaimed a hand over her heart. Fred and George had suddenly apparated right in front of her

"Oops sorry Vi" they laughed "Harry! Thought we heard your dulcet tones. Don't bottle it up, let it out"

"Anyway, if you're all done shouting, wanna hear something a little more interesting?"

The group leaned over the banister of the stairs as Fred and George dropped down their extendable ear.

"If anyone has a right to know it's Harry.if it wasn't for Harry we wouldn't even know Voldemort was back. He's not a child Molly"

"But he's not an adult either! He's not James, Sirius!"

"Well he's not your son"

"He's as good as"

"Who else has he got?"

"He's got me"

"And us!"

"Shit" Viola said pointing down to Crookshanks who was toying with the ear

"Crookshanks! Stop it!" Hermione whispered angrily

"I've got it" Viola said making her way down the stairs quietly and picking up Crookshanks.

Suddenly the door swung open as Viola stood their with Crookshanks in her arms while the adults in the room stared at her.

"Oh hi guys" she smiled as Remus shot her an unsurprised look while Rosaleé and Sirius didn't even fail to hide their grins "Hermione, I hate your cat"

"Viola dear!" Molly smiled "get the others, we'll be eating in the kitchen"

I think If James was still alive he'd get on so well with Vi. He'd ship her and Harry so hard.
