Chapter 7

1st September – Grimmauld Place, 12 –


POV Harry:


Finally, we are going back to Hogwarts. I mean the last month has been fun with Regulus, we have talked a lot and I realized that I really like him, but it's stressing me having to act like I don't know anything and being nice to all of the traitors. Ugh.


Ron: Mate, are you okay?


Harry: Yeah, I was just thinking what will happen this year.


Ron: Oh yeah.


Harry: Come on, we have to go eat breakfast, I bet you're hungry.


Ron: Yes.


Time Skip – Platform 9 ¾ -


Molly: Boys, this year I expect that you don't put in a lot of problems.


Fred & George: Don't promise.


Molly: At least be safe.


H, R, He, F&G and G: Okay Mum / Mrs. Weasley.


Remus: Harry, he says too that you will be safe and that... he... lo-loves you.


With that I blush, he loves me too?


The others don't mind what we are saying, I think that they think we are talking about Sirius but we are talking about Regulus, all of them minus Fred & George who are giving me knowing looks.


Harry: Can you tell him that I love him too?


Remus is surprised but he smiles at me and nods.


Remus: You should go now.


I nod and make my way to my 'friends' plus Fred & George, who are my real friends with Neville, but he is not here.


Hermione: Come on, we have to go now.


We enter the train and immediately the twins go off somewhere, not before glancing at me with a smirk.


Hermione: Well, Harry we have to go now as we're prefects, but don't worry you still have Ginny. Bye.


Ron: Bye, mate.


With that, Hermione and Ron go off to the prefect's reunion and they leave me with this Weasley.


Ginny: Come on, Harry, I would like you to meet one of my friends, she is probably with Neville.


Neville? Well then, I will come. I only hope that her friend isn't like her.


Harry: Okay.


Ginny and me go to a compartment and when we open the door, I can see Neville with a girl with blonde hair grey-blue eyes.


Neville: Harry.


Harry: Hi, Neville.


Ginny: Harry, this is Luna and Luna this is Harry Potter. Now I leave you I have to go somewhere else.


After saying that, Ginny left and I enter the compartment closing it after me.


Luna: Hello, Hogwarts heir.


Neville looks so confused right now, but I only want to know, how does she know it?!


Harry: How do you know?


Neville: You mean that she isn't wrong and that you really are the Hogwarts heir?!


Harry: Yes, but I only knew it this summer. And the other people that know it would not tell anyone without my permission.


Luna: The nargles told me.


Harry: What?


I'm so confused right now. What are nargles? It's a magical creature? But I studied about all magical creatures this summer and the nargles weren't in the books.


Neville: She's a seer, maybe that's the reason she knows it. But if the other people that know it are Ron and Hermione, trust me that they would tell anybody.


Harry: Yeah, I know it. I don't trust them. I was meaning Fred & George they are the only people that know that could have told you.


Neville: So, more people know?


I nod and turn to see Luna; she has a dreamy look I didn't notice before.


Luna: I also congratulate you in your relationship.


Neville: Harry, you have a girlfriend and you didn't tell me. Wait, don't tell me its Ginny?! Don't trust her Harry, she only wants you for your money.


Harry: I know, it's not Ginny and also, I'm not going out with no one.


Neville: So, Luna, why did you say that?


Luna: Harry, you found your mate, right? That's why I meant.


Neville: A mate? Did you go through a creature inheritance? I didn't know that the Potter's had blood creature.


Harry: It's by my mother's side, she was adopted and was a pureblood and a Veela and so am I.


Neville: So, you are a pureblood, have Veela blood and you have found your mate?! And you discovered all of this in a summer?!


Harry: Well, it was in one day. I went to Gringotts and discovered all of this.


Neville: What an adventure!


Luna: Harry, can you tell us who your mate is?


Harry: You don't know it?


Luna: It's strange it never happened before, but I can't see who is your mate.


Neville: Oh yeah, who is it? Is she beautiful? Do we know her? Does she go to Hogwarts? Don't tell me that she is a Slytherin!


Harry: First of all, is not a she is a he.


Boom! I said it and now Neville and Luna wear a shook face, but Luna does seem that she is smiling.


Neville: You are gay?


Harry: I didn't know it until I met him and it was because Ginny has been feeding me with love potions so...


Neville: Oh Merlin! Is she really doing that?


Harry: Yes, but know the lordship rings protect me from that.


Neville: What a relief! But now answer my questions!


Harry: Okay, he is really handsome and hot, you don't know him and he doesn't go to Hogwarts but he is a Slytherin.


Neville: Okay... If he is Slytherin but doesn't go to Hogwarts is because he is older?


Harry: Yes.


Luna: Can you tell us who is it?


Harry: Yes, but promise you won't tell anyone please.


Neville and Luna: We swear on our magic that we won't tell anyone.


Harry: You didn't have to do that.


Neville: It was necessary.


Luna: So, who is it?


At how is it going the conversation I'm grateful that after I entered the compartment, I put a silencing charm around it, because if someone heard what we are talking about all about acting like I don't know anything would have been for anything.


Harry: Okay, you don't know him because he graduated of Hogwarts in 1978.


Neville: Wait, what?! He's much older than you.


Harry: Well, that's the thing. He actually has only 18 years.


Neville: There's something wrong with that. And you haven't told us who is he.


Harry: My mate is Regulus Black, the younger brother of Sirius and also a person that was thought dead since 1979.


Luna: Dead? That's why I can't see him?


Harry: Probably.


Neville: But what happened?


Harry: When he was dying, he travelled through time and appeared this summer in his room in the house where I stayed the last month.


Neville: That's why he is only 18.


Harry: Yeah.


Neville: Well, then I don't see nothing wrong in this relationship, the only thing bad is that he is a Slytherin.


Harry: It's nothing bad and I'm the heir of Slytherin myself.


Neville: I thought that you weren't.


Harry: Well, how could I be the Hogwarts heir if I'm not the Slytherin heir? But returning to Regulus, we are not going out, yet.


Luna: Yet?


Harry: Well, before we entered the train Remus told me that Regulus told him to tell me that he loves me. It was the first time that he has told me. He's always flirting, but this was the first time that he told me he loves me.


Luna: That's so sweet.


Neville: What did you say then?


Harry: I really love Regulus so I told Remus to tell him that I love him too. But until we don't talk, I can say that we are in a relationship.


Luna: Maybe he will send you a letter to ask you. You know, maybe you won't see him until next summer or until Christmas.


Harry: Yeah, it's a lot of time. I would want a letter.


After I say that we change the conversation and start talking about other things and I start to get to know more about Luna. But then at half of the ride someone opens the compartment door. I look up and see Malfoy. Oh Merlin, my little cousin found me. Ugh.


Draco: Potter, it seems that you aren't with the Weasleys nor the mudblood.


Harry: Yeah, and?


Oh, I want to laugh to much now, it's so hilarious the face of shock in Malfoy.


Harry: Now, I'm with a pureblood and a half-blood. You can't say any offensive words now, do you heir Malfoy?


Draco: Uh, oh... No, heir Potter.


Harry: Sorry, but I'm Lord Potter not heir.


Draco: How? You're not 17, unless you have creature blood you can't be a lord.


Harry: It's because of Triwizard Tournament and yes, also it's because I have creature blood in me.


Draco: Sorry, Lord Potter, I didn't know.


Harry: It's okay.


Neville: Okay, this is surprising. How are you talking to Draco Malfoy like you are friends or at least that you don't hate him?


Draco: I would also like to know why are you, Potter, talking with me like that.


Harry: Well, first, like I had love potions in me I also had hate potions and charms keyed to Malfoy and all the Slytherins.


Draco: Someone obliged to hate me? What are you all talking about?


Harry: If we are going to talk about this, can you at least close the doors, so the silencing charms that I put can work.


Draco: Yeah, whatever.


With that he closes the door and sits next to Luna, in front of me.


Neville: So, what's the second reason?


Harry: Oh yeah, well... he's my cousin or something like that.


Draco: Since when I'm related to you?


Neville: Yeah Harry, I don't think that you are related to the Malfoys in any way.


Harry: I didn't say it was the Malfoys, though.


Neville: But you just said.


Harry: Malfoy, your mother is a Black, right?


Draco: Yes, but what does this have to do with what we are talking about?


Neville: Harry, you aren't married with him, you do know it, right?


What is he saying now? Me married to Regulus... Here we go again, blushing like crazy, even if he isn't here.


Luna: Harry, are you okay? You are so red right now.


Harry: I think that you know that I'm perfectly fine and that I'm just blushing.


Draco: Potter married?! And did you say him, a boy?


Harry: Yes, do you have some problem? But I'm not married.


Draco: I don't have any problem, it's normal in the Wizarding World. But I thought you like the Weaslette or the Chang girl.


Harry: Like we said before love potions, it was not real.


Draco: Oh, but you haven't told us why am I related to you!


Harry: I'm a Black.


Neville: Wait, you are a Black?!


Draco: Well, I heard that your grandmother was a Black, but for you it's like you haven't any single Black blood.


Harry: I wasn't talking about the Potter part, this summer I discovered that my mother was adopted and she was a Black, a pureblood, too.


Neville: That's surprising. I know that before you said that you were a pureblood, but I didn't expect for you to be related to your 'boyfriend'.


Harry: Can you stop saying that?


Luna: Oh, he's blushing again.


Harry: You are like the twins!


Neville: Anyways, what type of relation do you have with your 'boyfriend'.


Harry: Um... second cousins? Maybe? With Malfoy I know for sure that we are second cousins, but with him I don't really know, he is the cousin of my mother, though.


Draco: Wait! I'm still trying to process here. Wait! Who is your boyfriend?


Harry: He is not my boyfriend yet.


Draco: Yet?


Harry: I thought you hated me and now you're teasing me?


Draco: Well, we are family, so we can't hate each other for long.


Harry: Okay, I think that we can be great friends.


Draco: Even if I'm a Slytherin?


Neville: Oh Malfoy, his boyfriend is a Slytherin and he is too.


Draco: The last time I saw he was a Gryffindor.


Harry: I begged the hat to put me in there, I was going to go to Slytherin, but because of the charms and potions I had in me...


Draco: Oh... Yeah, we can be friends.


Harry: I know I can trust you. Maybe we can all be friends.


Draco: Me and the Weasleys and the mudblood? You are crazy!


Harry: I was referring to Neville, Luna and your friends. I don't want to have anything with those traitors.


Draco: So, you hate the Weasleys now?


Harry: No, I'm great friends with Fred & George and I don't know a lot of the older brothers so I can't really hate me.


Draco: Well, yeah, I was also only referring to the younger ones. I think that the twins are cool.


Harry: Oh really. Then the twins also are in the group of friends!


Draco: Wait! When did I accept to be in that group? And you don't even know my friends!


Harry: Come on.


At that we start to hear a laugh next to us and we see that Neville and Luna are basically dying of laughter.


Neville: Oh, you're hilarious. I didn't know that you could get along so well. Also, I'm in and I think the twins will be in too.


Luna: I'm in too.


Draco: Okay, I'm in and I will talk with my friends. Maybe this won't be so bad.


Harry: Yay!


Neville: Oh, Harry, you're so childish.


Harry: Oh, I think that I have passed too much time with Sirius, Anubis and Onyx.


Draco: Sirius isn't our cousin that wants to kill you? I he your boyfriend? Because I don't know any other male cousin that we have in common.


At this I start to tell him that Sirius doesn't want to kill me and that he is my godfather and also, I tell him about Regulus the same things I told Nev and Luna with the same promise that he doesn't tell anyone.


Draco: Okay, I think I get it. Your boyfriend is our cousin that was thought dead but in reality, he time traveled to this year, right?


Harry: Yes. But he's not my boyfriend yet.


Neville: You still say yet! Anyway, who are Anubis and Onyx.


Harry: They are my baby familiars.


Draco: You have two familiars? What are they?


Harry: Anubis is a cross between a python and a basilisk and Onyx is afire panther.


All – Harry: Could we meet them?


Harry: Now it's not the time we are arriving at Hogwarts and they are hiding in my trunk. But, maybe tomorrow or in Sunday you could met them.


Luna: So, they are in your trunk?


Harry: Yeah, nobody can know that I have them.


Draco: And, how are we going to meet them then?


Harry: If you can tomorrow in the afternoon, at 4PM, meet me in the girl's bathroom of the second floor with your friends Draco and I will tell it to the twins.


Draco: Why there?


Harry: You'll see.


After that Draco leaves the compartment to meet his friends and we arrive finally at Hogwarts.
