I solemnly swear that I am up to no good | Professor Remus Lupin

Chapter 44 | Library

The next day I decided to use the notebook from Remus for the first time.

I will try to talk with Dumbledore before I go studying in the library.
See you at dinner xx

I wrote it down and closed it again. He was probably already busy with his work since I had slept in. I got ready and packed some of my books into my bag. I decided to take the notebook too and let it slide into my bag. I walked to the great hall and ate a small breakfast.

I was drinking my matcha and read some of the pages of my transfiguration book, when I heard Snape's slow and bitter voice. He was walking into the great hall and I couldn't stop myself from rolling my eyes in annoyance. I had hoped that he wouldn't return to Hogwarts over the whole holidays, but it seemed like he did. He was clearly pissed off and he wasn't alone. When I looked at him I saw that Dumbledore was walking next to him. He calmly explained something to my potions teacher.

I quickly finished my drink and closed the book in front of me. I packed it back into my bag and walked over to the two Professors.

"Good Morning" i greeted them. Snape looked at me with annoyance and sighed as soon as he sighted me. Dumbledore greeted me back with a smile.

"Professor Dumbledore i was hoping i could talk to you...maybe later" i said with a smile. He raised his hand to signal me to stop talking.

"That's alright. We were actually just talking about it..." Dumbledore explained at looked over at Snape, who seemed to get more annoyed. "We think it would be best for you to have someone that will help you finally archiving your transformation, since it seems like Professor snapes methods don't work on you."

I already hoped he would refer to Lupin and waited for Dumbledore to continue.

"It is really surprising that you can resist them...very very surprising indeed. So my idea was, that your new teacher will help you transform, control it and he is probably the most experienced person I know" Dumbledore continued and Snape rolled his eyes.

"I was so kind to inform him already"

"What?" Snape and I stated confused.

"Your training will begin on the first Tuesday after the holidays" Dumbledore finished with a smile and turned around and walked out of the great hall. I was still confused and noticed that I still didn't knew who was going to be my teacher. Snape just shook his head and muttered something to himself, before he walked away too.

I decided to ran after Dumbledore and gladly found him before the staircase to his office.

"Professor!" I said to stop him and he turned around to me. "Who is going to be my teacher?"

He just smiled for a while and motioned for me to get on the staircase to his office. I did as i was told and when we arrived in his office he signaled me to sit down on a chair.

"I heard that you are trying to find informations about your father..." he suddenly stated.

"Who said that?" I asked surprised. I wondered who had told him and wasn't it obvious that i would search for him, my mother died and the letter was the only thing I had from my real parents.

"I have my ways...i just want to know why. I already told you i will tell you, if I know it for sure." He stated and i couldn't stop staring at him confused.

"To be honest Professor, this letter you showed me is the only information I ever really got on my parents. No one wanted to tell me who my possible father was so I took it in my own hands and i still don't get why you refused to tell me. Even when he isn't my father and you have someone in mind, i still want to know who." I told him in all honesty.
