Miss Slytherin

Book 5: Chapter 2

"How are you so casual about this?!" Blaise exclaimed at her, his initial shock had faded into amusement, this girl died for months and she's acting like they were later for a dinner reservation. "We dug you up from your own grave!"

Finley looks behind her to see a headstone reading, 'Sage Finley Evans-Potter, a true friend, a great Slytherin, an even greater witch.'

"You guys really did mourn for me," she muttered under her breath as she looks back at the males that surrounded her. Sirius scoffed in disbelief, she really acted like James at the moment, cocky at how she had just been brought back to life, not an ounce of devastation or astonishment that she was alive when she had just been dead not too long ago. It was like she had been expecting them to bring her back.

"Well, duh! You died because your mouth has a mind of its own?!" Theo scolded.

"That... is correct, my mouth really got me killed," she shuts her mouth as soon as she saw Draco glaring at her at her future attempts to deny her case. She looks up at Remus and Sirius who had stayed quiet even though she greeted them first.

"What? No welcome back? No hug— okay here it is," she coughed as she was tackled by Remus, who embraced her tightly. She missed the warmth of being alive, the darkness in the coffin was terrible and blinding. She glanced to her side to see Sirius grinning from ear to ear, crossing his arms over his chest. Had she been gone for that long? Being dead, time flies fast clearly.

"Oh sh—oot, I didn't get to take my end of year exams," she gasped as she lets go of Remus. She was suppose to take them once she gets back to France, was she going to be held back a year?

"Unbelievable, you died and were brought back to life, and you worry about your fourth year exams?" Sirius laughed, this was the Lily Evans side if Finley he had now had the glory to see. "You need to get your priorities straight."

"Let's get you fed," Remus suggested to her, taking her hand before being stopped by the four boys who grew annoyed.

"We're the ones that told you she was alive and dug her up, you owe us?" Sebastian raised his brow at the two men. They were at a disadvantage really, Sirius was still an escaped convict to both muggles and the wizarding world, so he can't be taken to anywhere public. They also can't take these boys to Grimmauld place, it was a secret head quarters for the Order.

"Can't really take me anywhere now, I'm a convict, remember?" He glares at the boys.

Clearly, the adults didn't trust these boys enough to take them to somewhere safe, Finley could see that, and well, a little help from her legilimens that she worked for a year to accomplish. She saw how much pain these six males had felt during the time that she was gone, she couldn't blame anyone but herself, she was dumb to poke the clown with a stick. This case, Voldemort was the clown, but she wasn't there to remember how she was killed.

"We can go to London, there's a subway there with a fast food restaurant—"

"Fast food? The food runs?"

She face palmed, forgetting that she was friends with three of the most high maintenance boys of London, fast food was peasant food for them. But seeing as she hasn't eaten anything since she was well, dead, not too long ago.

"Can you apparate us Moony?"

The subway had one fast food restaurant, lucky for them, it was half empty and that there was only one man who was having his coffee on the far table by the window. The place itself was outdated, but was assured to always have good food for sure, and nothing else excited Finley at the moment than having actual food in her mouth.
