Hakuna Matata - Familia Primum: Book Four

Chapter 9

Dear Belle,

I am sorry, for everything. I never meant for you to live your life without me or your mother.

I just couldn't let Pettigrew get away with that! Selling out James and Lily to him! The reason your mother died. The reason you almost died too.

Please, I hope that one day you can forgive me.

Snuffles

I wanted to burn the letter sitting in my hands. But I couldn't.

I placed it in the secret compartment of my trunk. Maybe one day I can forgive him. But not today.

Today, Mr. Weasley is coming to pick us up and take us to the Quidditch World Cup.

I, for one, cannot wait. I had my bag packed, with some clothes and the ipod with the head phones.

"Belle!" Harry shouted up the stairs.

I ran down to see Lily pop out of the fireplace.

"Lily!" I ran up and hugged her tight.

"Belle."

The twins came next, and went up to get our trunks, then went through the fireplace.

I followed behind Lily.

****************

"Hogwarts is going to have loads of fun next year." Percy states during dinner.

"What do you mean? What's going on next year?" All of us still attending Hogwarts start shouting, falling right for it.

"Well it's top secret. I can't actually tell any of you." We all groan.

"Then why bring it up at all, Perce?!" Alithia, Percy's twin sister, asks him.

"I told you not to call me that, Thia!"

"As if that would stop me?"

"Pompous bastard!" I hear Lily grumble under her breath as the talking starts up again.

***********

I dressed in a 'kiss me I'm irish ...ish' green tank top, a pair of skinny jeans, and my black high tops. I painted my nails lime green, put on green eyeshadow, a glittery green four leaf clover on my cheek, and a couple of four leaf clover decals on the corner of my eye.

As we were leaving, Mrs. Weasley takes all of the twins ton-tongue toffees. As we leave, the twins and Mrs. Weasley do not speak to one another.

I walk with Hermione and Ginny as the group of us seemingly aimlessly walk around.

"Dad! Where are we going?" Ron shouted.

"Haven't the foggiest! Keep up!"

Soon enough we met up with the Diggorys. Hermione, Ginny, and I swoon over the gorgeous Cedric.

Poor Lily though. Cedric cheated on her with Cho Chang of all people.

Lily still, poliety talks to Mr. Diggory.

Mr. Weasley tells us to eacch grab ahold of a smelly old boot. I don't know why, but I listen to him anyways and grab a hold of it.

When we finally are allowed to let go, all but Mr. Weasley, Mr. Diggory, and Cedric, land hard on the ground.

After pushing himself up, George pulls me up off the ground without even trying.

We enter our tent, seemingly small, but actually very large.

"Ron get out of the kitchen!" Mr. Weasley shouts.

"Yea get out of the kitchen, Ron!"

"Feet off the table!"

"Feet off the table!" I laught at Fred and George as they mimick Mr. Weasley. They lift their feet, then put them back down once Mr. Weasley's back is turned. Lily smacks them each in the back of the head.

Harry, Ron, Hermione, and I go to get some water. While walking along we see Seamus and Dean.

*************

As we walk to the top of the stadium, Ron asks, "Blimey dad how far up are we?"

"Put it this way, if it rains you'll be the first to know." Lucious Malfoy interrupts.

"Father and I are in the minister's box. By personal invitation of Cornelius Fudge himself." Draco smiles with superiority.

"Don't boast, Draco. There's no need with these people." Malfoy senior sneers.

"You're damn right there's no need. Because we don't give a flying flip about you, your father, or your superior, pompous, spoiled brat attitude!" Lily says with a gorgeous smile.

Fred and George each high five Lily, as we continue walking to our seats.

I cheer everytime the Irish score. In the end Krum, the Bulgarian seeker, catches the snitch. However, it's not enough, and Ireland still wins the match, 170-160.

Back in the tent we celebrate the win.

"There's no one like Krum. He's an artist!"

"I think you're in love, Ron!" Lily sing songs.

"Oh shut it Lily!"

"Victor I love you!" She starts.

"Victor I do!" Fred and George chime.

"When we're apart my heart beats only for you!" The whole tent joins into the teasing.

We hear loud shouts and bangs coming from outside.

"Sounds like the Irish are getting their pride on!" Fred says.

"Stop it! It's not the Irish! Death eaters. We need to go!" Mr. Weasley says as we grab our bags and head outside.

Death eaters are running around causing mayhem. Muggles are being held in the air by their ankles, ministry officials are running around trying to stop the mayhem.

"Fred, George, Lily! Ginny is your responsibility! Everybody get back to the port key! And stick together!" Mr. Weasley shouts as he follows Bill, Charlie, and Percy into the fray of destruction.

Somewhere along the way, we separate from Lily, Ginny, and the twins.

We are blocking spells left and right. At aome point we lose Harry in the fray.

We finally find him. The Dark Mark set high in the sky. Ministry officials start shooting spells at us.

"Stop! That's my son!" I hear Mr. Weasley shout. "Harry, Hermione, Mirabelle, Ron. Are you all ok?"

We shake our heads. Harry is accused of having performed the spell to set the Dark Mark. He tells them he saw a man, and the group runs after him.

"Let's get you kids home."
