Fred walked me to detention that night, talking about random things to take my mind off of this. It was unlike me to get a Detention. I maybe got two in my whole life. I knew Lupin wouldn't be crazy, probably just making me clean or help set up. I hardly listened to Fred as he said goodbye leaving me to walk in alone.
"Professor Lupin?" I asked
"Yes, sorry, come sit."
I walked over slowly, sitting down at the desk closest to the front.
"Don't worry. I won't count this as detention. I just wanted to talk to you and explain why it's bad to skip."
"What? Really?"
"Yes, I'm sorry, but I had a lot of suspicions...I learned today that you're one of my best friends' daughters." He said smiling
"Valerie?" I asked confused.
"You look so much like her I just couldn't figure it out till Dumbledore told me."
"So..can you tell me about her?" I asked as he nodded
"Just like you, she was Extremely Smart, and constantly learning or finding herself in trouble. Now I'm not saying those Weasley twins aren't nice and fun, but be careful!" He said chuckling before continuing
"Valerie was spectacular though I know you don't remember her much or at all. She loved you and talked about you a lot over our letters. I only met you once right when you were born. She eventually gave you up, seeing as she knew her fate."
"Do you know my father?" I smiled looking at him
"No, I'm sorry she never told me. But still here's a photo of us at Hogwarts." He said handing me a picture
"Wait, is that my mom with Sirius Black?" I asked confused
"Well, unfortunately, yes, we were friends until everything went down, and he sold Lily and James to Voldemort. They dated off and on from Fifth year till Seventh year." He said sighing
"Ah, she was beautiful, though." I handed him the picture as he shook his head
"Keep it, please."
"No, please take it back."
"She left it for you...I have a copy as well. I have a ring." He handed me a ring that had a light blue tint.
"Woah!"
"We planned on getting married actually," He chuckled.
"Wait seriously?"
"As friends, that's if we both made it out alive."
"Oh, I see...Well, I'm glad one of you did." I looked up at him
"We can talk more eventually, but I won't hold you much longer." I nodded standing up hugging him as he hugged back
