Chapter twenty-one - potions
It's was morning now, Ari had made her way back from Remus's office half an hour after she arrived. She woke up to her dorm, still empty of course. She looked over to the alarm on her bedside.
8:34
"Shit shit shit!" She exclaimed. She was late to potions. With her DAD. She scrambled out of bed and put her robe on over a tracksuits he had in the end of her bed.
She opened the door to her dormitory and ran to potions as quick as she could, leaving her bag behind.
She walked through the door and everyone turned her way. "Miss Scamander.. you're late." Ari gulped and made her way to her seat. "That's détention miss scamander."
Ari was not pleased. Not only did she miss breakfast but she got detention.. "well.. what are you waiting for? Get out your text book." Snape interrupted her thoughts sternly. "Shi- I forgot my book professor." She said timidly. He looked at her in pure disappointment.
Oh god. He's going to be so mad, great way to try and start a relationship with your father! I mean he doesn't even know, he hates me though.. he's definitely not gonna accept me.. why is he staring at me like that.. oh god, wait... FUCK FUCK FUCK.. legilimency.
Her thoughts were interrupted again..
"CLASS DISMISSED, everyone out except you!" He said pointing at Ari. She was scared. No,that's an understatement; she was absolutely terrified. Severus pulled out a chair close to his desk, and waved his hand in front of it, signalling for her to take a seat. "I-is it true?" He questioned. Ari had never heard him stutter before. She looked at him sincerely, and nodded her head, scared at his response. He got up and walked over to her, crouching down to meet her level. "If you don't want me to be your daughter then I totally get it, I am a disappoi-" she was cut off by severus's arms around her, holding her into a warm embrace. She could hear him sobbing uncontrollably. "I've been trying to find you for years, I-" he stopped speaking. He let go of her and cupped her face in his hand, "oh my merlin.. you are really my daughter and this all isn't a sick joke.." he questioned. "It's true, y-you're my real dad." They shared a little bit of information to each other, but she didn't mention lupin to him. She had noticed that they were awfully.. what's the word.. stand-offish towards each other, and she couldn't deal with the drama of it all.
"Can I call you dad?" Ari asked, she wore a worried expression, her face marked with tears. "Of course you can, but.. I feast we can not tell too many people about this, as the dar-" he stopped himself and replaced the last word with.. "other students may be interested in the matter.. and I can not be going about my days explaining it to them." Ari understood but didn't really understand his change in wording.
"Do I still have detention dad?" Ari queried. "Think of it as a way of catching up more than a detention, of course if that's okay, I don't mind if you had other plans.." "that sounds lovely dad! You have no idea how happy I am to get this all off my chest." Her words broth him to near tears again, he wasn't used to someone sling him dad.. it made him feel....

Ari left the classroom, as it was her only lesson of that day, she had roughly 2 and a half hours till lunch, so she went to visit Remus. He didn't have classes all day today so she could stop by at any moment to see him.
She walked through the door and saw that he wasn't there, she went through to his personal quarters, the door was unlocked and he wasn't there either. She looked around for a minute, and saw a note on his desk. It read:
Ari,
I have gone to the shrieking shack, Sirius is there and we need to discuss something, please come by when you can, it involves you.
Love Remus <3
Ari smiled and headed down to the shrieking shack; unaware she was being followed.
