"Wake up love." Bill said lightly shaking Octavia's shoulder. "You have to read this." He said as she groaned and turned over. "Come on it's important."
"Is it the thing about Sirius?" She asks voice muffled in the blankets.
"Uh yea." He said looking at the front page. "You knew?"
"I wrote it." She said finally sitting up rubbing the sleep out of her eyes. "It's just under Rita's name."
"Is it true?" He asks handing her the paper.
"Yup, even got the rat to admit to being the traitor." She said looking over the front page. "Now we just have to wait."
"Do you forgive him?" Bill asks handing her the coffee he made her.
"He's innocent what's there to forgive?" She asks taking the coffee from him.
"Aside from leaving you alone as a child?" Bill asks teasing. "How about banning you from visiting him is Azkaban?"
"Eh just trauma under the bridge." She replies smiling up at him. "Now don't you have work?"
"Yes I do. Can I expect you here when I get back?"
"Yea, I'll leave and come back later." She tells him standing. He smiles seeing her wearing his shirt. "Stop staring it's weird."
"It is not." He says leaning down to kiss her, which made her heart stop and then speed up. "I'll see you later love."
"Bye." Once he's gone Octavia apparates herself home with his mug because why not she'll bring it back.
"Welcome home darling." Renee says as she sits on Octavia's couch with Red. "I heard from a little bird you're responsible for the uproar at the ministry right now."
"What can I say I do like to have the peoples attention?" Octavia says as she goes to shower. "Fancy coming with me to play the role of concerned, hurt sister?"
"It would be my pleasure."
"Excellent."

Attention was something Octavia was used too, from being Sirius' sister, a Black in gryffindor and then becoming a quidditch player. It was almost as if her presence demanded it. So that's exactly what she did as she stormed through the Ministry. People stopped to stare as her and Renee made their way though the building. Not bothering to knock she barged right into the ministers office.
"Explain what this is." She demanded ignoring the other people in the room as she threw the paper down in the desk. "Now."
"We don't know Rita hasn't been in yet." He answered not looking her in the eye.
"Is it true?" She demanded knowing the thirty but acting, gryffindor dramatics coming in handy. "Well?"
"Based on all the facts it is." He answered after a minute. "We have aurors out looking for Petigrew now."
