The Other Potter

Chapter 18

"What am I going to do?" I asked Ginny miserably. Ginny had been one of the only people to notice when I had come running through the common room and had followed me up stairs and listened to everything Laura had told me.

"You have to tell Harry" Ginny said and I cringed at the thought of that conversation. "How am I supposed to tell him that?" I asked hugging my pillow closer to me. We were both sitting on my bed. "I don't know do we even know this is real?" Ginny asked and I shrugged "Laura seemed pretty sure".

"I think before you do anything you should talk with Dumbledore, you said he knows and is trying to get Blaise's mum to be your guardian, it also makes sense why he wouldn't want to send you to the Dursley's" Ginny said and it made sense.

"Will you come with me?" I asked hopefully and Ginny smiled "Absolutely. Right after dinner" Ginny said raising from the bed and holding out her hand for me to take. Most of the Gryffindor students had already headed down to dinner by the time we had made it downstairs.

The moment I walked into the great hall I knew the Slytherin's were watching me. I made sure to sit on the Ravenclaw side of the table and keep my head down. "Remember when Romilda was going on about how little you look like Harry" Ginny whispered after a moment and I looked at her confused.

"Yeah" I answered and waited for her to continue "Well now that I think about it, you do look a lot like Blaise, you have tan skin and it can't be from the sun since you haven't really been in the sun in a while, you don't have to wear glasses, and your head is shaped kinda like Blaise's" Ginny said and I stared at her.

"I have green eyes like Harry and black hair" I told Ginny but couldn't help looking over at Blaise to see the similarities between us and then to Harry to do the same. I checked the teachers table and noticed Dumbledore wasn't there.

"I can't wait till after dinner" I told Ginny before standing and walking out of the great hall.

I sat in my chair staring strait ahead, Dumbledore had verified everything Laura had told me Blaise was my brother, Harry was my brother, I was screwed.

"I understand this is a shock and I realise the predicament you are now in but I want to reassure you everything will be alright. I will call Harry here to tell him tonight, you don't need to worry about that" Dumbledore said and I shivered a little imagining how that conversation would go.

"So Blaise knows then?" I asked already knowing the answer. "Blasie, and the entire Slytherin student body, as well as the teaching staff" Dumbledore told me and I cringed, all the Slytherin's new.

"This is a lot to take in, and in an attempt to cheer you up I have this to give to you" Dumbledore said handing me a piece of paper "Some adjustments had to be made, to accommodate the classes, some you will need to wait until your sixth year to take as the times will interfere with your fifth year classes, you have free lessons to spend how you like, though I would recommend studying" Dumbledore said with a twinkle in his eyes.

"All the necessary items and textbooks have been bought and delivered for you, this new schedule starts tomorrow" Dumbledore said and I smiled "What exactly were my marks?" I asked and his smile widened as he handed me some more pieces of paper.

"Harry is on his way down now, I suggest you take those back to your room and open them with a friend" Dumbledore said happily and I took his advice.

I opened my results with Ginny, Ritchie and Jimmy and we all jumped for joy in one of the corners when  my results were read out "Transfiguration 'Outstanding', Potions 'Outstanding', Charms 'Outstanding', Ancient Runes 'Exceeds expectations' Ancient History 'Exceeds expectations' " Ritchie had read them out to me and I was so excited.
