In Between Two Worlds (HP/PJO Crossover)

Chapter 34: Bailey.

When we woke up in the morning Remus was gone. We looked in the whole apartment for him but he was just gone.

"I'm sure he will come back soon, Sunshine." Said Percy comforting me.

"I hope he does. I'm worried about him. It seems like everyone I love gets hurt because of me. I hope he comes back or at least owls me."

"I'm sure he will." Percy replied, pulling me into a hug.

Just then there was a loud 'POP' and Remus appeared in our room.

"Where were you?" I yelled. "You had me worried sick!"

"I'm sorry I worried you. But I wanted you to meet someone. Or re-meet someone."

Just then a girl my age stepped out from behind him. I looked at her and remembered a little girl I played with every day until I moved to New York.

"This is-" Remus started but he was cut off.

I yelled "Bailey!" just as she yelled "Karlee!"

"I remember you!" We said hugging.

"We used to play with each other every day when we were little!" I said.

"We were best friends!" She added.

"So this is why you scared me to death," I said glaring at Remus. "Worth it!"

"Dad! Why would you worry Karlee like that!" She yelled jokingly.

Them Mum came in. "What's with all the ye- REMUS JOHN LUPIN!" Then she started to hit him with a towel "YOU HAD KARLEE GOING BALLISTIC! WHERE WERE YOU?"

Remmy was trying to dodge her attacks and talk at the same time.

"I-was-getting-Bailey! Stop-hitting-me-woman!"

At this point, Percy, Bailey, and I were rolling around on the ground laughing.

"Bailey! Where is she!?"

Bailey got up. "Hi...Aunt Sally." She said still catching her breath.

Mum pulled her into a hug. "It's good to see you again, sweetie. You got so much bigger."

"Well I was a baby then."

"Oh no! She's sarcastic too! These three are going to be the death of me!" Said mum dramatically.

I high-fived Bailey and Percy.

"Well, what do you expect? She is my daughter!" Said Rem.

We all laughed.

"How about this." Smirked Mum. "If you four keep the sarcasm to a minimum, then I will give you chocolate ice cream for breakfast tomorrow. You are staying another night aren't you, Rem?"

"We are now!" He replied energetically.

"Well come on. I made pancakes!"

"How come you never make me pancakes for lunch, Dad?" Bailey accused him.

"Because, Bailey, I-"

Mum sent him a sharp look. Rem looked like he was fighting an international battle. Ice cream for breakfast vs. a sarcastic comment. He went with ice cream.

"I...um...I'm a terrible father."

We all laughed at his weak attempt to cover his mistake.

"Wow Rem. That wa-" Percy slapped his hand over my mouth. Bad idea. I bit his hand.

"Ow! What the heck dude!?" He yelled.

"First of all don't put your hand on my mouth unless you want me to bite you. Second of all, I'm not a dude. Third of all, let me see your hand."
