I've missed you
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The dinner table was quiet and the mood had shifted slightly. Sirius was discussing something quietly with Lupin and Harry seemed tense.
Lyra followed his gaze to a newspaper that was sitting on the unused end of the table, the blaring headline reading, "The boy who lies?"
Harry snatched up the paper, eyes scanning it fervently.
"I'm surprised at you," Sirius said, "I expected u to start asking questions about Voldemort as soon as you had arrived."
"I did..." I asked this lot," he gestured to Ron and Hermione across the table from him and Lyra by his side. "They said you wouldn't tell them anything, not even Lyra. They said we're not allowed in the order-"
"And they're quite right!" Mrs. Weasley cut in, "You're too young." Both of her fists were clenched on the arms of her chair.
"Since when do you have to be in the order to ask questions?" Sirius asked mockingly, "Harry and Lyra have both got the right to know what's been happening."
Lyra glared across the table at Nymphadora. Sirius had been pushing for Lyra to be informed from the start, but Dora thought Lyra was under too much pressure already.
"Hang on." George interrupted.
"How come they get their questions answered?" Said Fred angrily. "We've been trying to get stuff out of you for about a month!"
"It's not my fault you haven't been told what the orders doing," Sirius responded, "Thats your parents decision. Harry and Lyra on the other hand-"
"It's not down to you to decided what's good for them!" Mrs. Weasley fumed, "You haven't forgotten what Dumbledore said i suppose?"
"Which bit?" These words came out of Sirius's mouth like a growl.
Harry and Lyra both caught each others eyes at the same time. They silently agreed that they would not leave this table until they got answers.
"They're under enough pressure already!" Tonks cut in, only for Lupin to put his hand on hers in a gesture to calm her down. Although she also noticed that Remus's eyes never left Sirius. Lyra made a mental note to ask her cousin about that later.
"The bit about telling them more than the need to know."
Ron, Hermione, Ginny and the twins were all watching the argument go back and forth across the table, as if it was a tennis match.
