No time to die | Harry James Potter ¹

XVI

Y/n never had a real home. At least in her mind. Of course, Grimmauld place 12 was where she grew up, where she had all her first memories but she learnt early in life that home is where the heart is. But, was it bad if she had no Home then?

She looked down at her trembling fingers, the rain fell. She was now in Hogwarts again, the atmosphere was depressing, for her at least.

Leo didn't speak to her even once after that day.

Hermione, Ron and Harry have been avoiding her.

While Ginny was the only one by her side.

Ginny held Y/n's hands as they sat in the dorm. Y/n's head on the headboard as she closed her eyes.

"Why can't they all just fucking leave me alone! I didn't ask them to do this!" she curses and Ginny strokes her hair "I don't know. I'm questioning why they thought this whole thing was a good idea in the first place"

Y/n rubbed her face with her hand before standing up. "I want to tell them something" "what?" "You'll see," she says shaking her head, opening the girl's dorm and walking down the stairs. All eyes drifted to her, someone was holding a phone,

"Why are you all looking at me like that?" she turned the laptop that stood on a small table in her direction and clicked play.

Her hand flew over her mouth.

It showed her parents, sleeping in bed. The person had a clipper in their hand. They turned it on and Shaved Remus's head, leaving him sleeping clueless with a buzz cut.

She looked around and said cleared her throat before people started to ask "Y/n is everything alright?" "What is going on?" "Is everything okay at home" her breaths became heavier as she choked out a small sound.

"It's like- it's like nobody's fucking business" her voice was raspy.

She stood up and her steps were fast as she walked through the common room door. Trying to find a quiet place for her thoughts.

Y/n stood in front of Dumbeldore office, saying the password she walked up the stairs that never seemed to end.

She stood in front of him out of breath. "I don't want to see anybody with these phones anymore, I- I don't want to-" "Miss Black, may I ask why?" "Because it's my life! Not theirs. They've gone so far that they even broke into my house" she says, sitting down in front of him.

"I could do something about this, but you have to do something for me" "what would that be?" she asked.

"Stop Leo Lovegood from joining the deatheaters."

Her soft smile now replaced by a hard face.

All that ran through her mind as she walked through the halls was. 'Don't lose your temper 'it's not that bad' 'kill him.'

She muttered the password to the Gryffindor common room and as expected he sat there.

She gave a quick look towards him but was quickly crowded. "Y/n are you okay?" "your father deserved that" "oh my- we should tell Umbridge" "you've had better days" People spoke over one another.

Her eyes switched back and forth. She looked down on the phone someone was holding, she grabbed it and turned to the wall beside her smashing it against it, many people gasping as she threw the now destroyed phone on the floor looking angry. "I hope your all happy now!" she turned away wanting to walk out before hearing Cormac McLaggen speak
