Unexpected | Bill Weasley

~23~ Inspections and St. Mungos

Umbridge was going to be inspecting the classes at Hogwarts, which I was not excited about.
On the day of my inspection, I was teaching the fifth year class when Umbridge walked in. I gave her a quick nod and continued with my class. "Now can anyone tell m-?"

"Hem hem,"

I sighed. "Yes Professor Umbridge?"

She smiled sweetly. "I was wondering if you have gotten my notice on me inspecting your class today?"

I raised an eyebrow. "Did I question why you're here?"

"No."

"Then of course I saw it." 

She flushed. "Yes of course, do go on."

I continued with the class. It went pretty well. Umbridge just sat in her corner and wrote notes, her beady eyes sweeping across the room. At one point, she walked around and went to Draco. "Mr. Malfoy, I was wondering.... how do you like Professor Starling as a teacher?"

"She's wonderful, can't imagine anyone else teaching this class other than her." he said. 

I smiled to myself. After class when everyone was leaving, Umbridge came to me.

"How many years have you been teaching for?"

"Five years." I started pulling out my notes for my sixth year class. 

"And how old are you now?"

"twenty-four."

"What did you do before teaching at Hogwarts?"

I placed my book into my bag. "I was a Healer for a year."

She nodded. "Thank you, you will be getting you're results in ten days time."

"Great thanks." I said coolly. Luckily, I passed the inspection, which Bill was thrilled about.

"I miss you Fawn." he said.

His head was in my fireplace and I was sitting on the ground in front of him. We talked for a while before there was a knock at the door.

"Come in!"

The door opened and Draco walked in.

"Hi Aunt Fawn.. oh I can come back later if you're busy." he said when he saw Bill's head in the fireplace.

"No, it's fine. Come meet Bill."

Draco sat in front of the fireplace next to me and I introduced them to each other.

Draco turned to me. "Bill's cool, I'd like him as an uncle as soon as possible please."

Bill and I burst out laughing.

"Don't worry, it'll be soon." I said, as I patted Draco's shoulder.

I had told Bill that Draco knew and that he promised not to tell anyone. After a while, Bill had to go to work.

"I'll talk to you later. Nice meeting you Draco, love you Fawn." and with a pop, his head disappeared.

"So," I said turning to Draco. "Why did you say all that crap about Harry's mum and Mr. and Mrs. Weasley?"

In the last Quidditch match, when the Gryffindor team won, Draco and insulted Harry's mum and Mr. and Mrs. Weasley, causing Harry and George to fight Draco and now they, along with Fred, were banned from playing Quidditch.

Draco looked away. "I don't know, I was angry."

I crossed my arms. "So? How would you feel if someone else got angry and insulted your parents?"
