The Potter Lost In A Hurricane

8.Dinner

Percy POV
As the Weasleys led us outside I was still in shock, my brother was right here. He still had the same hair and glasses, but not broken anymore, and we were still the same hight. I still cannot believe that I'm actually here. But me not being able to tell Harry about his life will be a bit upsetting.
As we were walking there Hazel tripped on a rock, I guess she was nervous and accidentally bumped into Harry.
"OW!" Hazel yelled as she clutched her head "oh my gods" she noticed all of us staring at her, "Styx, I am so clumsy. Sorry Harry, my bad." The way she said that didn't really calm anyone down. I also noticed that Hazel started shivering intensely after for the remaining 4 feet until the table.
"Haze, you okay?" Annabeth asked. Hazel gave an enthusiastic nod. "Great. So... I don't want to seem rude or anything, but what are your names?" Annabeth asked. She was always thinking about the important stuff.
The only red-head girl introduced herself as Ginny. Then there was Ron, Harry's best friend, who was definitely related to the other gingers. Bill, whose face was all scratched up by a monster, who was married to Fluer. Hermione who had frizzy hair and curls just like Annabeths and, other than Hazel, the only other black girl here. And Mrs. Weasley who insisted we all called her Molly.
"So what school do you guys go to again?" Bill asked after introductions.
"Chiron's Academy of Magic" Hazel told him.
"Chiron? That name sounds familiar. But I don't think I've read about this school before." Hermione wondered aloud.
"Well Chiron is a trainer of heroes in Greek mythology." Wise-Girl started "Whoever named our school thought we should be trained to strived for the same greatness that his students achieved. Except for the part where they all wind up dead. And the school very secretive."
"How'd your head about it then?" Ginny asked.
"Through family and family friends. Like my mom went there and then I hit in. And Hazels dad. And Percy's...well." Annabeth said.
"The woman who raised me science I was six went there. Sally Jackson. But I will still call her my mum." I lied the group.
"I bet she was better than the Dursley's." Harry grumbled.
"Yeah. Sorry that I left you alone." I breathed out.
"It wasn't your fault. You touched the portkey. It could have easily been me." Harry said.
"Who are the Dursleys?" Hazel asked at the same time as Annabeth and Fluer.
"Me and Harry's Aunt and Uncle. After our parents died in that car crash, we went to live with them until we were...separated." Every British person at that table was looking at me strange. "Do I have something on my face?"
"Car crash? You think Lilly and James died in a car crash?." Mrs.Weasley asked in a quiet voice.
"So those muggles told you your parents died in a car crash?" Ron looked at me and Harry who was looking at his lap guiltily."I knew they were rotten."
"Well, at first." Harry said "Someone told me the truth eventually but, would you tell four year olds that their parents were killed by a mass murderer?"
"Murdered?" Hazel squeaked "That scar you have makes more sense now. How would you get that in a car crash?" She whispered more to herself. Hazel was acting strange.
"Scar?" Ron, Ginny and Hermione looked at me in shock and fear.
So I lifted up my hand to show them. The scar was very similar to the one on Harry's forehead but it was smaller. Other than that, it was identical.
"I really just cant belive that we thought this was from a car crash. How do you get a lightning shaped scar from a car crash?" I said, looking down at my scar, remebering the green flash that I see whenever I think of my mum and mortal father.
"Enough about that, tell me about Hogwarts." Annabeth said, changing the subject, knowing full well that death isn't a fun dinner subject. "What kind of classes are there?"
"Oh there's all your basics, Potions, charms, transfiguration, astronomy, herbology and defense against the dark arts." Hermione explained "Then there's the electives like care of magical creatures, divination, witch is rubbish by the way, ancient runes and muggle studies."
"As long as we don't need to take chemistry or a language arts class, I'll be fine." And after a second I asked, "But what's a muggle?"
"A non-magic person." Bill said. "Did you really never hear that term?"
"We always call them mortals, or no-majes." Annabeth covered up quickly. That wit-enhancing potion is coming in handy. Look at that, I know what a wit-enhancing potion is.
The rest of dinner was nice. I learned more about the wizarding world and that me and Ron had the similar eating habits. I also picked up on Hermione crushing on Ron and Harry and Ginny having a thing for each other. I was planning on confronting Harry on that later today.

On top of that Hazel and Fluer looked completely terrified of my brother. And I don't really know why. I guess Fluer is afraid of another child of of the big three. But Hazel...I couldn't figure it out.

After dinner, everyone went back inside and me and Harry just hung back.
"So...you've been in America." Harry started.
"Yeah. And you've stayed in England." I said. I don't think I realized how awkward it could get. "How've you been?"
"Alright. We won a war." Harry said.
"I'm..." I couldn't tell him I fought in two. "I don't know what to say. That sucks."

"Little bit." And after some silence I said "How were the Dursleys really? And be honest."
"You won't tell the others right? But you remember that cupboard? The one under the stairs for when we misbehaved?"

Harry asked and I nodded "When you disappeared, Dudley got our room and I got the cupboard. I moved out once I got my Hogwarts letter." Harry looked down and tried not to look me in the eyes.

"Nobody knows right?" I asked. "And of corse I won't tell the others. My mum, well Sally, you need to meet her. She married an asshole. And he was pretty much an American unemployed Uncle Vernon."
"Sorry Percy." Harry said as we walked into the Weasley's living room.

"It's your fault. After he... went away...she found a better husband. Her and Paul Blofis are having a baby."

"Blowfish? That's a great name."

"It just Blofis. No 'h'. But I tell him all the time that Blowfish is a better name." I laughed out.

"Wow, you two are alike the more I think about it." Hazel said.

"Thanks" we both said at the same time.
"So Harry" I said knowing full well that Ginny was in the room "enough about sad childhoods. Do you have a girlfriend?"

As soon as I said it Ginny turned bright red and Harry blushed a light pink.
"No." He faltered, not really sure what to do on the spot "Do you?"

"Yeah. She's great. Beautiful and smart. I think I'd be dead without her." I said, definitely surprising Harry.

"Think? Seaweed Brain you know you'd be dead without me." Annabeth said.
