That's Not My Name

Chapter Nine: Crashing the Secret Meeting at the Hogshead

(This song is how Tiger's feeling in this chapter. "" These means they're talking about Tiger and not her boy persona,Timothy.)

When we arrive to the Hogshead it was crowded and very dusty. Lupe and I stood in the back to watch. As we did Harry and Hermione were telling everyone about Voldemort and about Harry teaching them defend against the dark arts. I was both amazed and a bit hurt. Once they were finished of what they had to say people began to ask questions, mostly about Harry's accomplishments and ridicule but after they were answered Hermione had everyone signed a paper agreeing to keep the group a secret. Lupe and I signed it last everyone was shock to see me. H-Hi everyone. I said awkwardly. Ti-timothy, What are you doing here? Ron asked confused. Well I um, suddenly a feminine voice said, Please don't be mad at Timothy. I made him come with me. 

                                                                                             Harry's POV

I turned to see a short blonde girl with light brown eyes, she looked worried. I then told her, don't worry we're just surprised to see him. she told us, i showed him a flyer and we came. Did you make flyers? I asked everyone they just shrugged "Timothy" said to us.  Everyone this is my new friend Lupe Anderson. She smiled, Hi. Hello, we all said. To be honest I was surprised that "Timothy" had found another friend but I was also worried, What if Lupe found out? I was worried for her, I mean she is my sister and I never want anything bad to happen to her. Hermione then said, Hey Timothy, Can we talk for a bit? Uh alright,Hermione. "She" said Leaving me and the others with Lupe. So Lupe, How did you and Tim met? Asked George. Oh I found him in the forest when trying to ditch Umbridge's class. He looked so sad. I heard her muttered the part as she continued I thought to myself was she lonely? We started talking and became friends. She finished with a smile. Just then Tiger came looking really upset Hermione then told her, Just think about it. "She" just glared then said to Lupe, I'm going now. Lupe looked worried and followed her out. It made me wonder what happened while we they we gone.  

                                                                                    Tiger's POV

Hermione lead me to the bathrooms and into a large stall then asked me about Lupe. I told her how we met and that we became fast friends to which she said to me,She might be working for Umbridge. I started getting mad telling her that Lupe is my friend and would never do that. She argued that first years were not allowed in the forbidden forest and that she was never punished for it. How do you know? I asked angrily. There is no marking on her arm- I cut her off by saying, Maybe she gotten a different punishment! Just leave her alone, Hermione! I think you should be careful,Tiger. Don't call me that! I snapped at her. And leave Lupe alone! I told her as I started heading out, from behind me I heard her say, Just think about it. I then glared at her then told Lupe that I was leaving. I headed back to Honeydukes and to the school. Timothy wait! Timothy! I heard Lupe called after me I stopped so that she could catch up. Timothy. What's a matter? What happened in there? Please talk to me. I looked into her eyes and asked, Lupe, Why were you in the forbidden forest when we met? I was there to ditch Umbridge's class,why? How did you find me? Oh I-I heard you. I frowned at her saying, Lupe you're lying to me. Tell me the truth. She was silent for a while then told me with a defeated look, I can't,I-I just can't. I'm sorry. I turned then started walking away from me. T-Timothy? Where are you going? Back to school and away from any liars that I might encounter. I heard her stop but I kept going until I made it the castle. Once I was in the safe, emptiness of my room. I stared crying but I was sure of three things. One, I can't trust anyone anymore. Two, I can't tell anyone who I really am, and Three, I now know that I am truly alone.
