Hinny, Furthermore (BOOK 2 OF HINNY THROUGH THE YEARS)

Set To Help

I don't own any of the characters. All credit goes to the Epic J.K. Rowling of course and always.

Harry

I leaned on my fists resting on the table, bending by it. Soon, I felt a warmth rub on my back and looked behind to find my wife, smiling at me.

"Is this really happening?" I gulped.

"I think so." She nodded.

"How do you trust them?"

"Well, for one, I love how they know the little things about us. Like how you love treacle but secretly we both love blueberry. Or how the mobile on the cot was a representation of their grandparents and though you deny it, you can't catch a wink the whole time that I'm in my transformation and after a while, from James to Lily, they started the same thing." She shrugged, "Sounds kind of nice."

"Yeah but what if its just a scam."

"Do you think it is?"

"I dont know. James did give me the option of using Veretaserum on him to get the truth out."

"Do you want to use it on them?"

"Would you let me?"

She tapped my back.

"James was right, I'm going to be the bad guy."

She laughed and kissed my cheek.

"We'll figure this out."

"I know." I kissed her temple, pulling her in, "Where'd you put them?"

"Third floor. All three bedrooms." She inhaled a deep breath, "Gave Lily my clothes and James and Albus yours."

"Okay." I nodded.

"This girl." I sniffed as Ginny and I settled in my office.

"Saphire."

"Yeah. She's sixteen."

"What could she possibly do Harry?"

"Ginny, Malfoy almost killed Dumbledore at this age."

"Almost. He couldn't do it."

"Something tells me he would've had Snape not shown."

"Harry, you are letting your hate guide you again."

"Ginny, this woman will kill us in fifteen years."

"Fifteen years! Harry, she'll be above thirty. And we can't even convict her for anything because I'm sure she's done nothing wrong."

"Yeah, I'll be the judge of that when we find her." I rubbed my forehead.

"The kids say she's in the Lestrange Hut. Maybe we should go together and check it out."

"Without the kids?"

"Without." Ginny nodded.

"Without the kids is the first place you died." We heard and found Albus, James and Lily standing.

"We can't take you there. You dying will get us no where." I spoke and Ginny looked at me with a dropped jaw. I knew my words were a bit harsh but I couldn't be soft, not in the moment.

"Look, we cant let you walk ahead of us. If you haven't realized, Dad, you are in our past. You die, Lily never exists." He pointed at me. Lily bit her thumbnail down, "And if you or both of you..." he pointed at Ginny, "Then, Lil and I both seize to exist."

"Either way, I'm left alone and honestly, I'm not looking forward to that. You have to understand. Our existence depends on you. We can't just put you ahead of us." James moved forward. I saw how he was wearing my light blue t-shirt and a pair of track pants, "All due respect, if one of us dies, nothing changes. One of you do, everything does."
