Chapter 2
Disclaimer: JK Rowling owns Harry Potter. If I were JK, Tonks would not have died.
Was it so wrong of me to do what I did? It was an impulse. I just jumped to a conclusion and did it. I honestly thought that … but I was wrong wasn't I? One of the only times I, Rose Granger Weasley, am wrong and it turns out it had to be at an important time. An important decision.
But what did you DO dear?
Hey! Who are you and why are you in my head??
There is no need to use that tone. I am a memory of ex- Professor Minerva McGonagall. I came here as fast as I could when I learnt that Albus was planning on "helping you" and someone along. Honestly, he is the silliest man I have ever know. No doubt he would have driven you crazy.
Professor McGonagall? My mum's told me all about you, she has!
Hermione Granger?
Erm- Hermione Weasley, you mean.
Oh, yes, ofcourse. So she's your mother? No doubt she would have told you about me. She most probably told you everything about everything though.
Uh huh. I find it interesting. Sometimes, I even discuss what she tells me with my friends. Like this one time she was telling me about how Goblins were different from other creatures because they could think for themselves and had enough rights but I felt that Wizards were wrong to not let Goblins use wands. So I was talking to my cousin Albus about it and as usual Scorpius jumped in with his opinion and as always we had a huge debate. But I didn't mind really because I learn loads form our arguments. But- but now –
Yes child? Now…?
Now, I don't think he'll ever jump into a debate with me. I don't think he'll ever even bicker with me like he used to. I mean, the Scorpius inside my head sometimes bickers with me but I can never see that Scorpius. I can't see the excited gleam in his eyes, I can't see the exasperated looks he shoots Albus every time he pokes in with a silly comment, I cant see his amused expression at my wit… And that's what I miss most of all… amusing him.
But child, why would anyone want to amuse another? It only makes you undignified. Now, if you want to make this boy happy, perhaps you should try offering him a ginger snap biscuit??
But I like amusinghim because he looks so cute with that wondering expression on his face. But then again, he looks cute all the time.
You sound like you are quite smitten with him. If Albus were here, he would have uselessly told you to follow your heart and his usual philosophical nonsense. But I'll give you some of my own advice shall I? And it's up to you whether you decide to follow it or not: Don not get mixed up with boys. At this stage of your life, it is most important to concentrate on your studies. There will be plenty of time for frivolities later. Not to mention, it is quite unpleasantly shocking when a teacher opens a broom closet to discover two teens tangled inside. Hogwarts could do well without another pair.
Good day Professor.
Goodbye Miss Weasley. Oh, and should you come across Albus someday, would you mind mentioning to him that I'm a good listener and give good advice? Thank you dear. I'll be leaving now.
A/N: The best is yet to come!! How many of you realized she didn't tell McGonagall what she did?? I would like to thank my sweet reviewers: this is dedicated to you!
