Not Checked, Not Edited

- Emmeline's pov -

I stand there in absolute shock at what i've just heard because Snape is alive this whole time, and merlin knows what he has been through by the hands of whoever has him. I feel my knees go weak at the thought of Snape being hurt because he was the only friend and comfort i had during my time at Hogwarts. He didn't let the fact he was a professor, and the head of slytherin affected our friendship or family like bond we had. My parents knew about Snape and i's friendship, and they didn't seem to mind at all, but they would always have this unknown look in their eyes like they knew something i didn't. They are looking at ne like that now, but before i could ask they why they were looking at me like that, my legs gave out from under me, and i fall to my knees. Suddenly, i feel two pairs of arms wrap around me just in time to stop me from landing on the floor. I look up only to see Fred and George beside me with tears in their eyes as they look at me. I lay my head on Fred's chest and finally let all the tears fall because everything has gotten too much for me these past few days.

I could hear Draco talking to dad, asking him if what he said was true, but all i can do is cry into Fred's chest. All this time, he was alive, and i could have helped him instead of laying on the hospital, unable to move. I feel horrible that he was where he was without anyone helping him out of there. I should have helped him. I know he would tell me to let this news get to me and not let what has happened cloud my mind. Oh, merlin, he would definitely want me to go to this trail because he has always told me there was something off about Potter. I push myself out of Fred's arms, standing up straight on shaking legs, and i wipe my tears because it's time to be the badass hufflepuff i am. I walk over to dad, who is still talking to Draco and tapl him on the shoulder, but that doesn't get his attention, so i do something risky i kick the back on his knee making him fall onto one knee. I see mum, Fred, and George looking at me in shock while Narcissa and Draco are looking at me with pride in their eyes. Dad stands up and turns around with anger in his eyes until he sees me standing here, and then his eyes go soft with love on them. I cross my arms and glare at him because everyone knows i don't like being ignored when i try to get someone's attention. Mum walks over and stands the other side dad while Draco says where he was beside dad, looking at me with love in his eyes.

"I'm sorry, princess. What did you want to say." Dad said softly

"I want to go to the trail it's what Snape would want. He told me there was something off with Potter, so i want to do this for him." I said strongly while my legs were still shaking

"He knew something was off?" Draco asked me with wide eyes

"Yes, he told me to be careful around Potter. He wouldn't even allow Potter to be near me in the corridor. He was very protective." I said, looking down at my shoes

"Don't look down, princess, or your crown will fall." Draco said as he placed a finger under my chin and raised my head

"We need to keep a close eye on you till the trail is done." Narcissa said worriedly

"If Snape knew something, then it was bad." Draco said, keeping his finger under my chin

"I don't need bodyguards." I said, crossing my arms

"No bodyguards. Worried family and mate." Draco said firmly

"If that's what you want, then we will all go with you. I know you couldn't have gone, but im glad you warmed up to the idea." Dad said softly

"We as well as Snape knew something important about you, but we chose not to tell you anything. We thought it was for your safety that you didn't know, but it just has made more drama in your life." Mum said with tears in her eyes

"Tell me." I said, needing to know what they have kept from me

"We can't, not without Snape." Dad said, shaking his head

"Just know we will always be your parents, and we love you." Mum said, and that sent worry through my heart

"What in merlin is that supposed to me, mother!" Fred said behind me before i could even say anything

"Of course you will always be her parents she is our sister and our triplet!" George said from also behind me

"We can't explain right now. We need Snape here for that." Dad said with sadness in his eyes

"I need -"

"Don't you dare say it, Emmy." George said behind me as he placed his arms on my shoulders

"Please don't lock us out." Fred said, sounding upset

"I need some time alone." I said, shrugging George's hands of my shoulders

"Flower -"

"I'm sorry, Drac, but all this is too much. I just need a little time." I said, stepping back, making Draco's finger drop from my chin

"Take as much time as you need. I will bring you some food soon flower. I love you." He said softly while looking at me worriedly

"Thank you, Drac. I love you too." I said, then walked up to my bedroom, ignoring everyone

I just need to be alone to stop all these bad thoughts to leave me alone because right now, im thinking the worst about what i need to be told. I don't want to be around my family in case i say something i regret or ask them something i will regret asking.
