Death Eaters Daughter Part Two

One Hundred Seventy Seven

  "So" Sirius said to me
We were the ones left remaining, Harry as well but he's been sitting by the fireplace quiet
  "How are things with Fred?"

  "Uh" I said sipping my tea "it's better definitely...but have you ever been in love with two people at once?"

He placed down his tea
  "Is it that Malfoy boy?"

  "He's my best friend...but at some point I fell in love with him too. He told me he loved me, but I stayed with Fred...is that bad of me?"

  "Not necessarily, you can love more than one person at a time" he said coming to sit closer to me
He placed his hand on my shoulder
"Things might be complicated but listen to your heart, it'll set you on the right path"

I nodded my head and continued waiting for word about Arthur

We waited and waited for hours, until we received another Patronus from Molly saying my dad would be there shortly to bring us to see Arthur
He was feeling well enough for more visitors, I wish Sirius was able to join us but unfortunately even as Padfoot he would have trouble being in the actual wizard hospital

Harry and I arrived with my dad and went straight to Arthur's room
He shared it with another wizard who was unconscious at the moment
I went up and hugged him gently, Harry stayed close but never got in to hug him
He was nervous of what Arthur would say I could feel his emotion

I walked over to Fred and held him by his center
"How are you feeling?" I asked Arthur

"Better than I look" he reassured me "I have you to thank for that Harry"

He nodded his head but stayed silent

We talked for a little while, never about what happened to him though
Having someone else in the room made it difficult to talk about order business
I knew they wouldn't be able to kick me out with my dad being here, but I figured I would wait my time to learn of what happened

Molly assured everyone that Arthur would be home shortly and that we could head back to the Black's house
Charlie and Bill would be arriving shortly there as well

"Hey dad" I said when we arrived back home

"Yes dear?"

"Things are getting worse before they get better aren't they"

He pulled me in for a hug
"Let us worry about that, you should be worried about school for now. How are classes?"

"They're good, except with Umbridge. Dad I hate her"

"I know, I don't blame you. Just keep up the good work with your defense program you all created, the best way to get back at her is teaching yourself"

" I wish you were our teacher"

"Me too, but things that are bad don't stay that way for long. I'm proud of all that your doing"

  "Thank you" I smiled at him

Fred and I stayed in the same bed tonight
Molly wasn't a fan when she heard about it the next morning, but it's not her house she can't make rules for us
My dads' don't mind us being together, they know we both respect their house and won't mess around
Fred hasn't said much since we've been laying down, I know what happened to his dad has affect him deeply
I just continued running my hand through his hair, until I felt his heart beat slow down and his breathing steady
He's always been there for me during my falls, I'm glad to be here for him

The following week was Christmas
I confronted Charlie about Cor, but he told me the reason he didn't tell me Cor could transform smaller was because it was temporary she couldn't stay small too long
  "Of course Hagrid would tell you that, he would love to hangout with a dragon all day long"

Molly made everyone a sweater for Christmas, except me
I didn't let it affect me, well I tried to not let it. It still hurt when I didn't see a package for me
I wasn't sure what she didn't like about me still, I wasn't going to prove to her I was good for her son
I knew I was a good person, I didn't need her approval
I don't need a stand in mother figure when I have two dads who cover both genders for me

Christmas felt different this time
We almost lost Arthur, the Weasley's all spent extra time with him this holiday
He was enjoying the time too

The following day Charlie asked me if I wanted to go to see Cor
  "She misses you, we miss you too" he said putting his hand out for me

I took his hand
  "I'll be back before we have to leave for school" I assured everyone "I'll come back this time I promise"

  "She will" Charlie said "if I have to throw her into the house myself she will"

Fred walked up to me and kissed my lips
  "Have a good time with your dragon Love"

  "We love you" my dads' said

Everyone wished me well, except Molly
She just stared at me concerned

Charlie apparated us to a mountain
We were at the very top, it was cleared off for tents and a campfire
"This is our second location after you left, we've been here before it's one of my favorites when it snows"

I put my hand out in front of me and caught a few snowflakes
Like last time, my body temperature was normal
I was still cold like any human would be, but I wasn't overwhelmed with the feeling

I felt two large males hug me tightly
"Cora hello!" Alec said

"We've missed you" Shilo

"I've missed you too" I said smiling into their chest

I felt hot air being blown on me from behind
The males let me go of our embrace, and when I turned around I saw my beautiful creature

"Hello Cor" I said smiling deeply
