"Expelliarmus" I said fast pointing at him and his wand went away.

"So what you are going to do now Black? Hurt me?" he asked but he wasn't afraid. More like challenging me.

"Yes I am" I answered curtly staring into his eyes.

"But in a different way" I continued, everyone looked confused.

"Rictusempra!" I stretched my arm towards him. He fell on the ground and then it happened what I wanted to happen.

He started laughing. Unstoppable.

"Black make it stop" he ordered while he was crying from the laughter. This spell feels like someone is tickling you.

"Hm, and why would I want to do it?" I asked him but I couldn't resist and started laughing too with the show I was watching. All the Slytherins did the same as me. Malfoy didn't stop laughing, not even a second.

"Take it as a lesson, Malfoy-" I made a few steps forward him

"-or I can use worst spells on you. And you know that I can" I emphasized my words before leaving him to handle the situation however he wanted to.

I didn't mind actually if he stayed like that forever. He could keep his mouth closed and wouldn't say bad things for anyone.

[..]

"Where have you been?" Ron asked me in the common room.

"Had to sort out an issue. Nothing important" I answered.

Harry looked at me from across the room, not believing me. I raised an eyebrow on him, and with a movement of his head he showed me he wanted to talk to me. I sighed before standing up and followed him.

"What's the problem?" I asked him and he crossed his arms.

"Emily, I know you. You do things bad and I want you to stay out of trouble" he said leaving me shocked.

"You don't know me at all" I said curtcly with an angry voice.

"Look, I promised to Sirius that I will keep you safe. I really want to prove him that I can" he said and I felt the blood running through my veins as my anger kept growing.

"So this is not about me. This is about you and how you want to prove to Sirius that you can be trusted! Be his little pet! And what am I? A baby to need protection?" I screamed at him, exhausted from all this situation. 

"This is not what I meant. I am doing this for you too!" he raised his tone of his voice and I pulled my hair back.

"I saw what you did to Malfoy before. I know what I am saying when I tell you stay. out. of. trouble!" Everyone in the common room was staring on us.

"So what you are spying on me now?! Who gave you this right?" I yelled at him, face to face. His eyes were darker than the usual.

"I know you need help!" He said a little calmer.

"You don't know ANYTHING!" I pushed him back feeling the adrenaline inside of me. He took my arms in his hands so I won't push him again.

"I have seen your fucking wrists!" He screamed, like he wanted to say it hours ago. I looked at him shocked, throwing my hands away from him. I realised all the Gryffindors were staring on us. On me.

"Is this true, Emily?" Hermione asked me with pity.

"I-" I said loosing my voice, lookin around the room. I locked my eyes with George's and the look he gave me broke my heart. He was disappointed. I looked back at Harry with something deeper and bigger than I felt before.

"I hate you. I wish Voldermort had killed you that night" I said slowly and disgusted for him. I started walking as fast as I could outside of the common room.

I fucking hate him. I wish Sirius was never his godfather. I really just want to-

My whole body bumped with someone else's and I was ready to fall if the other person wouldn't catch me.

"Mrs Black are you okay?" I got asked and I looked around me, everything was blurry. When I got my vision back I stood normally on my feet and gently left the other person hands.

"Yes I am okay" I looked up to see professor Dumbledore. I felt so embarrassed.

"You don't seem like you are" he concluded and started walking away, leaving me confused.

"You are coming, right?" he asked while still walking 'waking' me up. Without answering I ran a little to go next to him and then I started following.

We were in his office now and he  took the teapot in his hand. Two cups were magically following in the air.

"Take a seat, please" he said and the chair pushed me itself down, and then rolled again alone near the table.

He sat next to me and the teapot filled the cups by itself.

"So Emily" he said while pouring two spoons of sugar in my tea.

"Are you okay? Tell me your news" he said and a magic spoon started putting sugar in his tea.

"I am okay professor. The lessons are also pretty okay. I just find some difficulties in Potions, thats all" I answered and he nodded.

"Ah yes. Professor Snape told me this. Don't worry, with some extra help you will be fine" he confirmed.

"But I didn't bring you here to talk about lessons. I want you to be confident around me!" I noticed that the magic spoon was still pouring sugar in his tea.

"I see you are a little lonely. Do you have issues of socialization?" he asked and I raised an eyebrow. I knew he was joking.

"What? I did! Yes I was very handsome as a boy and all the girls wanted me, but I didn't make friends pretty easy" he explained and I laughed a little.

"No, nothing like that" My mood changed completely and he noticed.

"You know, mrs Black" he started saying, with a serious tone.

"Sometimes you might feel like the most loneliest person in the world. Like no one understands you" he said and I was curious of what he will say next.

"But that doesn't mean that you are. You see, maybe you just have the idea that you are lonely and feel like this. Or maybe you actually are"

"I can't get your point, sir" I said confused.

"Meh, its fine. I don't want to dizzy you with my gibberish" he said and drank some of his tea.

But it was Dumbledore, and Dumbledore never talks gibberish. He knew exactly what he was saying.

"You are smart, Emily" he said scaring me. I looked at him confused.

Isn't it illegal to read student's minds?

"Maybe. But I am Dumbledore and also not afraid of the Ministry. You want to report me? Go ahead" he said and I rolled my eyes laughing.

"It's time for you to go to bed. If any professor finds you tell them you were with me" he stood up and took his mug with tea on his hand. He poured it back to the teapot but it took the form of normal tea (powder).

"Okay" I only said and went to the door.

"Thank you professor" I said and he gave me a little smirk.

"Take care mrs Black" he warned and I nodded.

"I will, goodnight" was the last thing I said before closing the door and heading to my common room not making any noise since it was past our bed time.
