Time Travel

Chapter 17

Holly looked at everyone as she ate her breakfast with a big smile. Her family, she is with her family. She is so happy. She forgot everything about Dumbledore and Voldemort. She didn't even want to think anything about those people when she is sitting with her family, having breakfast as if this is their daily routine.

"What are you thinking with that big smile of yours?" Remus asked her and she looked at him happily.

"I'm just so happy to have you all here with me finally." She said to him and he smiled at her.

"We are happy to have you here as well." Remus said to her. "But..." He trailed off leaving her in suspense and confusion.

"But?" She frowned. "What's wrong?"

"Don't you think someone is missing?" Remus asked her and she looked around the table but didn't find anyone missing.

"Who are you talking about?" She asked him and Sirius joined their conversation.

"What's wrong?" He asked looking at her frowning face.

"Nothing." She smiled at him assuring him that everything's fine. "Moony said we are missing someone in our family. Do you know who he is talking about?"

Sirius looked at Remus who smirked at him making Sirius roll his eyes at the werewolf and shake his head smiling back at Holly who was still looking confused as to who Remus is referring and is missing in their family.

"He is talking about your boyfriend." Sirius said and Holly frowned even more.

"My boyfriend?" Holly asked a bit loudly gaining everyone's attention and Charlus frowned.

"You have a boyfriend?" He exclaimed.

"You are too young to have a boyfriend. Who is he? Is he good to you? What about his family? Do they know about you? Do they treat you well? Did he force you into this? You don't have to be afraid of anything. We, Potters still have power around the wizarding world and can destroy those who dared to hurt you and force you into things like this. Tell me, who is that bastard? Did he force you into anything else? I'm going to chop his balls off, if he dared to touch you inappropriately and do something without your consent. Why aren't you saying anything? Who is he?" Charlus rambled in anger and everyone looked at him amused.

"Mr Potter, you should stop speaking and give her the chance to speak if you want to hear her answer." Regulus broke the silence making Dorea and James laugh loudly at Charlus' face which turned red in embarrassment.

"Really, dad?" Sirius chuckled lightly.

"I agree with you." Remus said even though he was laughing silently.

"I don't have a boyfriend and no one forced me or anything. You don't have to worry about anything." Holly said to Charlus who sighed in relief.

"Then, why did you say your boyfriend?" Charlus asked her.

"Remus said someone are missing in our family and when I asked Sirius about it, he said it is my boyfriend." Holly said to him. "I don't have one, so I was confused as to why he said that and asked him about it."

"Why would you say that?" Charlus asked Sirius who was still laughing lightly at Charlus' exclamation.

"Dad,  Padfoot was just messing around with our Bambi. Also, I was talking about Draco. He is family too, isn't he?" Remus said calming down and looked at Charlus' meaningfully.

"Family...." Charlus trailed off understanding the hidden meaning in the word family. Hmm, Draco is a nice lad and he came back in time with his granddaughter to help her even though he wanted to save his parents along the ride. He was there for her, when she needed someone on her side. He helped her and Charlus nodded his head looking satisfied. Though, he is not going to just tell Draco that he has the blessings of his family to date Holly, he has to go through some tests for him to completely pass as his grand son-in-law. What if Draco would show his true colours after marrying his granddaughter and torture her or hurt her by sleeping with other women or...
