Mrs Weasley followed them upstairs looking grim.
'I want you all to go straight to bed, no talking,' she said as they reached the first landing, 'we've got a busy clay tomorrow. I expect Ginny's asleep,' she added to Hermione and Alula, 'so try not to wake her up.'
'Asleep, yeah, right,' said Fred in an undertone, after Hermione bade them goodnight and they were climbing to the next floor. 'If Ginny's not lying awake waiting for Hermione to tell her everything they said downstairs then I'm a Flobberworm. . .'
"Why you still here?" Ron asked Alula.
'All right, Ron, Harry,' said Mrs Weasley on the second landing, pointing them into their bedroom. 'Off to bed with you and you Alula, down a floor.'
"Night,' Harry and Ron said to the twins.
"Night," Alula added.
'Sleep tight,' said Fred, winking.
Alula felt herself blush slightly.
Mrs Weasley closed the door behind Harry with a sharp snap.
Alula wandered along the floor and turned as she knew someone was standing behind her.
"I thought you said that you were tired, Pup." Her father commented.
"I am," Alula said, leaning against a wall. "But I can't sleep."
"Follow me," Sirius said as he led her to a different part of the house.
On the door, there was a nameplate that said 'SIRIUS'. Her father's room was spacious with a large bed that had a carved headboard, a tall window with long velvet curtains, and a candle chandelier. The walls of the room were covered with so many pictures that it was barely possible to see the wallpaper. Many of the pictures seemed to have on them so his family could not take them down. His room was decorated with banners and colours to show his difference from his family.
He had pictures of muggle motorcycles and bikini-clad girls. There was also a picture of the four marauders: himself, Moony, Wormtail, and Prongs. It was very dusty suggesting the room had not been used for a long time.
Alula took in every nook and cranny as she walked around the room. There were books littering the floor. Alula bent down and picked one up- The Taming of the Shrew.
"Shakespeare?" Alula questioned her father who was sitting at the end of his bed.
"It was your mother's." Sirius smiled. "Remus says you read him."
