I Solemnly Swear She Was Not Forgotten

Chapter 5 - hello

The days passed slowly as Alchemy tutored Scorpius and winter came. Jeanie had for the most part left her alone while Alchemy was with Scorpius, and McGonagall had received around 3 new journals all full of Alchemy's dreams. However she kept her vision to herself.

"Hey Alchemy, what are you doing for Christmas break!?" The blond Malfoy asked her as they walked back from the library Alchemy carrying 3 books and Scorpius 1.

"I'm going back home for this huge Christmas dinner with my family. Everyone is there. From Aunt Hermiony to James and Lily. All Weasly related wizards come. Its a really big thing." She answered sweetly as the two walked back to the dinning hall where Christmas dinner was being served. The students were all saying goodbyes before their week break back home. Alchemy was nervouse to go back home, after the letter she sent Aunt Hermiony about the strange feelings. However she was more worried that McGonagall would tell her family about her strange dreams. For years since she was able to recall her first memory she had kept the dreams a secret. But then she didnt sleep walk or even cry,

'When I was homeschooled things were so much more simpler...I didnt wonder around asleep or even have to deal with other kids...' She thought to herself. 'But then again, I never had friends and if it werent for Hogwarts I wouldnt have met Scorpius'

Scorpius sighed and replied. "I'm just going back home to eat with my mom and dad. My grandfather never comes to visit us so its kinda lonely just being us three." He smiled but Alchemy saw that he didnt want to be alone on Christmas.

Without thinking she blurted out a thought that raced into her mind. "Y-you could stay with me and my family. Theres a lot of us and its never lonely at our gatherings." Suddenly Alchemy's cheeks burned bright red from embarrasment and how corny she sounded. Scorpius however grinned and looked at Alchemy with pure joy.

"Really?! Do you think your folks would mind?!" He yelled excitedly. Alchemy smiled back and nodded her head. "Yahooo!!!!" He screamed at the top of his lungs just as Alchemy opened the dinning hall doors. All heads in the room turned to see what the noise was and Alchemy shrunk back quickly heading to her table. Scorpius happily followed.

After a minute McGonagall rose to the pedistal that was at the front of the teachers table and silence echoed into the room. "Good Evening students;" She began her speech. "As you all know tonight is the last night before Christmas break, and I wish you all to have a magnificent time. However," Alchemy felt that something bad was going to be said. "Some of you will be staying behind for numerous reasons until tomarrow night. Those students are-" The room grew tense. Who would have to stay?? "Fred Weasly the second, Roxanne Weasly, James Potter, Lily Potter, Albus Potter." Alchemy looked to her cousins and siblings shocked faces. Then McGonagall continued. "Hugo Weasly, Rose Weasly, Victoria Weasly," Alchemy noticed how it was all her family in wich would be staying. "And Finally, Alchemy Weasly. Will those students please met me in the library asap." Then McGonagall left and slowly the Weasly's and Potter's got up in curiousity. All but Alchemy.

"Whats going on...?" She whispered full on anxiety and worry. Scorpius looked at the doors and got up grabbing Alchemy's hand.

"Who knows but lets go find out." He replied and dragged her away from the dinning hall back to the library. Once there, all 8 (excluding here and Scorpius) of her family members stood awkwardly waiting for the news on why they were staying an extra day.

McGonagall cleared her throat and everyone payed attention. "Hello children, I know this is sudden but due to, certain events..your parents all agreed to hold Christmas at Hogwarts along with the family reunion." She informed them. Alchemy nearly choked on air. If her parents and family came then they would have enough time to talk to McGonagall about her. Also no doubt her sleep walking would come up.
