Chapter 14

Narrator's point of view

A few days have gone by and the search for Harry had grown. Everybody wanted to find the boy, take the reward and leave. They were eager and defermined but Potter was well hidden with his friends.

They didn't leave the Grimauld place for they felt safer in there, nobody would even search for it since it has been known to be deserted, quote 'known'.

Auralie has been trying to take her mind off of her family especially her brother who seemed to be more eager to serve the dark lord than to maintain their relationship as siblings. It did work, distracting herself especially when there are three people who are strangers to her and wants to get to know them.

The two girls were playing around the piano, showing off their skills to it. They had surprised each other that they revealed that they know how to play.

"Certainly you would know a classic?" Auralie questioned as her fingers played through the keys, where-in impressed Hermione,

"Für Elise, ofcourse." Hermione chuckled and continued to play the rhythm, making Auralie star-struck of how gorgeous a girl can be right now to her.

While Hermione was playing the keys, focused, Auralie remained at her seat while staring at her, A small smile on her face.

Hermione stopped playing, looking at Auralie with a raised eyebrow, challenging her to play more but with honesty she just wanted to see her play.

Auralie pry her eyes off of the girl and played the rest of the notes perfectly. She had taught herself how to play in her house, kept herself busy while there were nothing else for her to do.

the girl who sit perfectly still was staring into Auralie's face, admiring at how peaceful and happy she looks right now. If she could wish for it to stay like that then she will in an instant, only for her to feel joy at all times.

Harry and Ron sat besides each other in silence. Potter was staring at the Golden snitch in a daze while it stays afloat, Ron was just half asleep as he listened to the plays of the piano.

A loud rustling came from the other room, they all looked at each other before going to the dining area where it came.

Auralie was the first to go behind was Hermione. Harry woke Ron up who almost fell on his sit but stood up to follow even though he had no idea of what's going on.

"Harry potter! How long it's been!" Dobby greeted in politeness while holding onto a man's leg. Kreacher was also there, on his head trying to sustain him.

"Get off me!" The man urged but fell down on the ground his face hitting first. He held the top of his head in pain and took out his wand rather slowly making Auralie roll her eyes.

She walked to him and took it off his hands making an irritated face to him before throwing the wand from out of his reach. 'Can he be more... dumb?' Auralie thought when she went besides Harry.

"Dobby was only trying to help!" Dobby explained, getting on top of the table to see Harry. "Dobby saw Kreacher in diagon alley which Dobby thought was curious. A-And then Dobby heard kreacher mention Harry Potter's name."

Kreacher tried to talk but Dobby pushed him aside making Auralie smile in amusement. The only interesting thing that the girl has seen was Hermione threatening Fletcher.

"And then Dobby saw Kreacher talking with the thief."

"You foul-" Fletcher tried to continued his words but got intimidated by Potter who seemed to catch on to what's happening.
