Chapter 61 || Grimmauld Place

         "Do you want to anything?" Sev asked his niece quitely. She shook her head not even sparing him a glance, laying on her bed staring outside the window. He sighed and left, she wouldnt speak to him, nor to anyone, it had been a week since that tragic night. The year came to an end. The students left for their houses for the summer break.

Cedric's funeral was conducted shortly after, Amelia couldnt go because she was in a very bad condition and under high fever because of crying the whole time.

She wouldnt come out of her room, would barely eat even after Sev insisted. He knew she was broken and would take a long time on coming to terms with the fact that the boy she loved died.

He sat in his office letting out an exasperated sigh, not knowing what to do so she atleast starts talking a bit. A thought popped in his mind, although he was not very pleased with it, but he knew it might work.

He quickly wrote a note to Remus Lupin, telling him to come over.

Remus was a better person in comforting people, something Sev could never do at all.

In less than an hour there was a knock on the door at the spinners end. Sev quickly got up and opened the door.

"In her room" Sev said not bothering to even greet him. Remus nodded and went upstairs to Amelia's room to find her laying on her bed, staring at the ceiling blankly. He saw how weak she looked her eyes had bags under them. He would have came to her the same night but he was dealing with his full moons problems which stay a few days before and after the full moon.

He quitely approached her with a small sad smile on his face. She didnt eve notice he sat beside her on her bed.

"Hello Amelia" He whispered with a small smile. She didnt reply. Earlier whenever she used to see him, it was her tradition to tackle him in a large bear hug, but right now she didnt even dart her eyes towards him.

"How are you Am?" He asked placing a hand on her head softly. She let out a croaked hum.

"Did you eat anything?" He tried to make her say something. She hummed again shortly.

"But I bought your favourite sweeta, I am sure you would want to have them" He said smiling brightly at her but her blank expression made his face to melt in a sad smile.

"You dont want to even talk to me?" He asked trying to sound offended. She turned slightly to look at him.

"Hi" She said in a raspy voice looking up at him. He passed her a wide smile hoping she would reflect one back, but she didnt.

"Um- chocolate?" He asked quickly digging one out.

Before she could respond he unwrapped it and handed it to her. She casted her eyes down at the chocolate in her hand. He urged her to atleast take a bite, she took a very small one before keeping the chocolate bar back in his hand. Remus sighed.

"Amelia would you like to have anything else, anywhere to go, or anything, tell me please, just dont stay quite–"

"I want a dreamless sleep potion" she said, her voice not the best. A hurt and worried look stricked Remus' face.

"Are you getting nightmares?" He asked worried. She stayed quite. His mouth parted, he thought maybe she wants it because she was getting nightmares about Cedric's death.
