Chapter 15: The Horrifying Afternoon For Tyler and Luke

Albus was very happy to be back on speaking terms with Quinn. In fact, when Easter arrived, he, Quinn, Scorpius and Rose - Scorpius asked her to help - were working on a plan to get rid of all the Death Eaters. Naturally, this would take a while. With Luke and Tyler being a secret couple, however, Albus didn't see Tyler a lot. They were mostly just gone, though Albus knew for a fact they were probably in the Room of Requirement discussing the past day and kissing. He was happy for Tyler, and it had lifted a huge weight off his shoulders. He still had to deal with Fred and Quinn. So, sometimes, when they were on a date, Rose, Scorpius and Albus would be doing all of the research. Albus was very nervous for Tyler and Luke, as they were bound to get caught, and Lily probably still intended on pushing them out. Therefore, he decided he would make sure they were out before she could do it in a horrifying way. Then again, he didn't want them to feel like Albus pushed them out. When Albus saw Tyler in the library - probably studying for the Charms test next week - he went to talk to him.


"Hey, Tyler, can I talk to you?" he asked, and Tyler looked at him and nodded. "Okay, so you know Lily outed you to my family. I think she will do it to the entire school as well." Albus said, and Tyler sighed.


"I'm not coming out now, if that's what you're thinking. My dad will disinherit me, I can't. Besides, I need to study for Charms because I haven't done anything the whole year so I have some work to do." He said, before walking to one of the 'silence' tables.


Albus sighed and returned to his own Charms. After about an hour Quinn entered, and she looked like she had jumped into the Black Lake. Mrs Pince started yelling at her, so Albus hurried to her.


"What have you done?"


"Fred pushed me into the Black Lake, then I pulled him after me, well, you get it." she said, laughing. Albus smiled.


"I'll get my stuff, we can go -"


"No, I have to study for Charms, but I have to dry first, so."


"Are you a witch or not? Just dry yourself with the drying spell!" Quinn laughed and waved her wand. She smiled and followed Albus to their regular spot, while pulling some books from the cases to her right. "Have you studied a lot already?" Quinn shook her head.


"I have a lot to do, so if you don't mind, I have studying to do." She said, and started with the spells.


***


Somewhere in the afternoon they had to go to a normal Charms class, which Albus always enjoyed. Ever since his first year, Charms and Potions had been his favorite and best classes, and he'd been doing extra work for both of them.


"Goodmorning, class. I have spoken with Professor McGonagall, and the tests have to be done earlier, so it will be in two days. Therefore you can use this class to study and ask questions, but please be silent, I have some tests to grade from the third years." Professor Flitwick said, so the class obliged and started studying - after having a stress moment because of the earlier test.


After working two hours for Charms, the class was over and they had to go to Defence Against the Dark Arts with the Slytherins, as McGonagall had announced there would be a new teacher. When Albus entered the classroom, he already liked the class. His teacher was, in fact, his very own dad.


"Dad!" he yelled, and he ran to his dad, before giving him a hug. The entire class was mesmerized by the fact they'd be taught by the Harry Potter, who saved the world from the evil You-Know-Who. Harry smiled at the class and rubbed his hands together.


"Welcome class, I'm Harry Potter, and I will be your new Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher until the next holidays." he said, and the class seemed excited as to what they'd learn. "Now let's see.. I have a little surprise for you. Today, we'll be learning about Dementors. Now, I think few of you have ever seen or heard of a Patronus Charm, anyone tell me what it is?" Rose's hand shot in the air.


"A Patronus Charm is a guardian made out of light that repels dark, like Dementors. Dementors feed on happiness and are attracted to bad memories and happenings, whereas a Patronus Charm is made out of a happy memory which you ought to focus on more than anything else. The incantation, Expecto Patronum is also Latin for 'I await a guardian' which makes sense in addition to the use of the spell. A person's full-fledged Patronus reflects their inner self and soul. Therefore, if two people have matching Patroni they could be called 'soulmates'. Patroni can also be a shield of light." She rattled, and Harry smiled at her.


"Correct. Now, I want all of you to think of a memory, the happiest you can remember."


Albus thought about a memory. He dug deep in his memory and focused. Then it came to him. In his fourth year he went to France with Tyler and Quinn, and they stood on the Eiffel Tower together. That memory would never be forgotten. He focused, and focused, and kept replaying the memory, before focusing on the Charm. "Expecto Patronum." He said, and from his wand erupted a bulb of light, which quickly died out. No one succeeded on a full-fledged in their first try, and Rose and Albus were the first to succeed with a bulb of light.


Albus refocused and tried again. This time, he did succeed. The light reformed, and morphed into an animal: a Lion. Everyone around Albus clapped - well, the Slytherins didn't, though Scorpius did.


At the end of the lesson, Albus was the only one to have succeeded, so he didn't have any homework. He decided to stay for a little and talk with his dad.


"So, why did you come to teach?" He asked, and his dad shrugged.


"McGonagall needed a teacher, I hadn't much to do at the office, plus Ron was doing great. How are you?"


"Okay." Albus said, and he shrugged. He looked at a large clock in the room and decided to go to the Great Hall for a late lunch.


Before he arrived, Fred ran past him, alone. A bit later Quinn hurried to Albus.


"Al, have you seen Fred? He saw something in the Forest and ran off, I think." She panted, and Albus pointed to the side-exit, and followed her. They ran to the forest, but no Fred to be seen. "Where'd he go, we had a date planned in the kitchens!" Quinn said.


"I doubt he's coming. Let's go inside to get something to eat." Albus said, and they re-entered the castle. They entered the Great Hall and sat down across from Luke and Tyler, who were talking quietly. Then, Lily came in - wearing a very very short purple skirt with a bright yellow cropped top, arm in arm with her Slytherin boyfriend. She eyed Albus, then looked over to Luke and Tyler, smiling mischievously. Albus shook his head, knowing what would be coming.


"Luke, Tyler, you have to go, I think Lily's going to out you like, right now." He said, but the two were laughing and couldn't hear.


Lily then stepped to the side of the hall (where all the notifications were hanging), her black boots with belts shining. She opened the pink bag she had around her shoulder and took a huge white paper from it. Everyone was looking at her, no wonder - her red hair with the orange hat and her whole outfit, she looked like a walking painting palet. She rolled out the paper and pinned it to the wall. When Albus looked at it, he gasped. It was a picture of Tyler and Luke, snogging. Everyone around Albus gasped too, and everyone looked at the pair. Lily stood next to the paper, smiling broadly. She then took her boyfriend's hand and walked off with him.


Albus, angrier than ever, ran to the notification board and tried to take off the note, before realizing it was pinned with 'only-the-owner-takes-it-off' pins. Tyler and Luke themselves looked up, and saw the picture. Then, from the entire Slytherin table, and some others, came the insults. So, the couple ran for it. Albus stood next to the board, helpless. He wanted to stop it, and he didn't know how, until his dad entered the Great Hall, whistling a happy tune.


"Dad!" he exclaimed, and the hall suddenly went quiet. New whispers were created, forming Harry Potter's name. "Dad, you have to punish Lily. She just outed Tyler to the entire school." Albus said, pointing at the picture. He could see the anger rising in his father's face, and he nearly tripped on his way to Gryffindor tower, before seeing Lily snogging her boyfriend. Albus, who followed his dad to make sure Lily would regret this, waited for his dad to say something.


"Lily Luna Potter." He said sternly, and the pair broke the kiss. Lily looked at her father anxiously. "You are a disgrace to the names we gave you. Lily, for the magical mind and politeness, Luna for the sweetness and bravery even in case of own weirdness. Potter, for pure good. What you have done is unacceptable. You are in grave trouble, girl." He said, and Lily swallowed. "I have not yet a punishment, but I have a beginning. I want you to wear decent clothes, and every time I see you in clothes like this I will take down one of your Muggle band posters from the wall at home. Further punishment will come too and you will feel very sorry. And if you dare tell anyone about Al, it will get worse."


"I'm so sorry, dad."


"Tell that to Tyler and his boyfriend. He's his boyfriend, right?" Harry asked Albus, who nodded furiously. "I'm very disappointed in you. I'm going to write your mum about it too." Lily shook her head.


"No! Don't tell mum, she'll kill me!"


"You should've thought of that earlier." Harry said, and he stalked off. Lily turned to Albus.


"Thanks for snitching on me." She said, and Albus eyed her.


"You outed Tyler and Luke to the entire school. Your punishment can't nearly be as bad as that." Albus snapped, and then he continued to the Gryffindor Tower, where, in their dorm, Tyler and Luke sat on Tyler's bed, discussing how to tell their parents.


"My dad's going to disinherit me, I'm sure of it." Tyler said, and he sighed. "Albus, you have the most despicable, annoying, mean, snitching, evil and disgusting sister ever." He said to Albus, who nodded. "At least she didn't tell on you." He added, and Albus nodded again. "No one will ever look at us the same way."


"You'll be okay, guys. You just have to go to class and act normal, that way it's going to be the least bad." Albus said, and both Luke and Tyler agreed.


***


Tyler and Luke were closer than ever, and Albus had been right. When they just acted normal and ignored the insults, in the end everyone was fine with it. Luke had sent a letter to his parents, explaining everything, and he had gotten one back from his dad, which said he already had a hunch. Tyler, however, didn't want to. Albus did tell Lily he had, so she couldn't out him to his own family as well. Quinn and Fred were slowly drifting from each other, as Fred kept leaving and was acting weird. On a dark and cloudy afternoon a week after Tyler and Luke were outed, Harry ran into the Transfiguration class Albus was in.


"Albus, Rose, it's time. Victoire is in St Mungo's." He panted, and Rose and Albus jumped up, pushed their books in their bags and followed their dad.


***


On the way to St Mungo's Albus, Rose, Roxanne, Lily, James, Fred, Molly, Louise, Dominique and Hugo kept asking questions. 'Is she okay?' or 'Will it be a girl or a boy?' but Harry didn't know. They hurried to the department for birth and found the parents there already. Harry then ran to Ginny, and Albus followed, keeping as much distance from Lily as possible - who was wearing a very short orange pair of shorts with her pink cropped top.


"Lily Luna Potter, what are you wearing?" Ginny exclaimed, and she took off her jacket and forced Lily to wear it. Then she gave Lily a long, long, long lecture for outing Tyler and Luke. The entire family looked at Lily with a bit of disgust in their eyes.


It took longer for the new member of the family to arrive than Albus thought it would. But, after a long time, Teddy came from the room Victoire was in.


"It's a boy." He said, smiling and panting. "And his name is Remus. Remus Bill Lupin." He said, and Bill started to cry of happiness. "Victoire is great, and Remus is healthy."


Later, after they were all done there, Harry was to bring all the kids back to Hogwarts, which he gladly did. Lily, still wearing her mother's jacket, was the first to ran off to somewhere in the castle. Fred, however wanted to run to the forest.


"Fred, where are you going, the castle is there. It's kind of hard to miss." Albus said, but Fred sighed.


"I have to go to the forest, it's important." He said, and walked off. Albus, curious about what Fred was going to do, followed him. Quinn, who had seen the family arrive, ran after him.


***


Oooh, what's Fred going to do guys? Is he a Death Eater? Is there someone in the forest? I know and you don't. I hope you liked the Chapter, and if you did please comment and vote, especially comment as I love it when people comment. Also, keep giving ideas, I will certainly use them. Next chapter will probably be up by Sunday or somewhere in the weekend.

Love,

Florence
