The bus suddenly stopped and I was flung forward. "Damn it." I grabbed my trunk and hopped off the bus. I walked to the gates that was between number 11 and 13. I pulled my wand out and tapped the gate with it three times. Slowly Number 12 appeared between 11 and 13. I opened the gate and walked up to the door. Should I knock? Yeah, I'll knock. I knocked on the door three times. After a minute or so it opened, but just a crack. "Who is it?"
I sighed. "November Elizabella Bolton."
"Who is the father of her daughter?"
My hands balled up into fists. "Jacob Dallas Dens," I said trying not to flip out.
The door opened more revealing Moony. "What are you doing here early?" He grabbed my trunk and I followed him inside.
"Voldemort." I sat out. "Was gonna go to the mansion for dinner.
He nodded and hugged me. "Happy birthday, Ember."
"Thanks Moony." I smiled at him.
"Everyone's at Dinner." He opened a door and walked in.
"Who was it?" I heard Padfoot ask.
I bounced into the room. "Eli the Lizard!"
"Mummy!!!!" Harmony ran over.
I smiled and picked her up. "I missed you so much."
She buried her face into the crook of my neck. "I miss you too Mummy."
"Why are you here?" Fred asked. "I mean, you were suppose to come back in 3 days"
I sat down next to George. "I know, but Voldemort." They all flinched but Moody and Harmony. "Was coming for dinner to discuss some things. I couldn't stay"
"Happy birthday, by the way." George said.
"Thanks Georgie."
"Happy birthday!!" everyone chorused.
"Oh my god! Presents!!" Ginny and Mione got up and ran out.
Harmony jumped off my lap and ran after them. "Wait for me!!!" I laughed and shook my head.
"Why are you all wet?" Sirius asked. "And where's my hug?"
I stood up and gave him a bear hug. "Draco and I went swimming." I went around the table giving people hugs except Moody, I was still a bit freaked out by him. Even though I knew it was Crouch not him, I sat between the twins.
"Swimming?" Sirius smirked. "Or was it showering?"
I glared at him. "Shut up Sirius. After breakfast he brought me To this place. A waterfall and we went swimming."
Ginny, Mione and Harmony walked in with a lot of presents "Present time!!" They put them on the table.
"Mine first!!!" Harms handed me an envelope. I smiled and opened it. "See! Dats you!" She pointed to the drawing of me. "Me." She pointed to her. "And Dwaco!"
I smiled awww its so cute!! "Thank you Harmony, I love it." I kissed her forehead.
"My turn!!" Ginny handed me a present. I opened everyone's present and thanked them for them.
"What did Malf-"Ginny stopped. "D-Draco get you?"
I rolled my eyes. "You guys say his name like he's bad, like Voldemort. Draco isn't bad. Anyways, he got he a scrapbook see!" I reached into my bag and pulled out the book. I opened it and showed everyone.
"Aww!! You guys are so cute!!" Mione squealed.
Sirius looked at me. "About Draco..."
I sighed. "Yeah, yeah I know. He's a Slytherin, he's a Malfoy, he's a self centered pure blood git. But you guys haven't seen the other side of him. The soft, sweet, caring side."
"Sweet?" Fred scoffed. "Says the girl who he bullied for three years."
"Seriously you guys!" I said. "You all, well.... Fred, George, Ginny, Mione, and Ron knows my feelings about him."
"Yes, but he still is the enemy." Sirius commented.
"He's a git." Ron said. "He cares about no one but himself."
"Yeah, what about me?" I asked. "Huh? He cares about me. He cares about Harmony. He cares about May."
"You said it yourself Ember." Sirius said. "He's an annoying loathsome good for nothing git."
"That was before I saw a new side of him." I told them.
"He's probably just using you." Ron said.
"Ronald!" Mione hit his arm.
"What? He already hurt her once." Ron said. "He'll probably do it again. And he's just trying to get you on their side because of who your dad is."
"What does m-my.... Father has to do with this?"
"He's you-know-who! The Malfoys are followers of him!" Sirius added.
"Draco is not a follower." I frowned at him.
"How do you know? He could be hiding the mark." Ron said.
"We went swimming together, I didn't see the dark mark on his arm." I said. "Just because his parents are one thing doesn't mean he is the same."
"Yeah he is." Sirius said. "He's the same as his parents."
I glared at him. "Oh so everyone is just like their parents?!"
"No i didn't mean-"
I shook my head. "Didn't mean what? You're saying that since Draco's parents are followers of Voldemort then he is one too?! Voldemort is my father, I hate to admit but he is. So does that mean I'm just as cruel and heartless like he is?!"
"No Ember, I didn't say that." Sirius said.
"That is what you said!" I exclaimed. "You said Draco is just like his parents. So basically what you said is that everyone is like their parents."
"Ember-"
I shook my head. "If you think i'll just sit here and let you dis Draco, MY BOYFRIEND, then you thought wrong. I won't let you."
"Ember please. I was just saying he isn't a good guy." Sirius said.
"That's because you don't know him like I do." I told him.
"That's enough." Tonks said. "Its her Birthday, give the girl a break."
I crossed my arms and glared at Sirius. Everyone should know not to mess with the people I love and care about.
"Okay, kids time for bed." Molly said. "Go, Ember you stay."
Everyone groaned and left. Remus closed the door and put a silencing charm around the room. "What?" I asked.
"Do you know anything about You know who?" Moody asks
I shook my head. "No. I don't want anything to do with him. He is a heartless and cruel git that needs to die." What? I know he's my father, but he is still Voldemort, what he did is unforgivable.
"Are you sure?" Moony asked.
"I know that he wants to kill Harry. I know that he expects me to join him in 2 years. I know he's after something. I know that he is at the Malfoy manor probably bitching out because I'm not there." I said.
"Wait." Mr. Weasley said. "He wants you to join him?"
I nodded. "Yeah. I am his daughter. But i will NOT join him. I will join the side that will Kill him. And its this side. I WILL fight for the people I love."
"What about Draco?" Tonks asked. That thought never occurred to me. What about Draco? I love him. I can't fight against him. I refuse to. I'll talk to him. But not now "I-I don't know..."
