The three of them saw The High Inquisitor of their school standing their arms folded and her eyes fixated on the weasley products, which were suppossed to be banned in the school and maybe she heard about the fantastic idea which Amelia gave based on her. The three of them exchanged what-to-do-now glances.

"Good evening Professor, you look lovely as always" Amelia stepped forward with a grin on her face.

"Thankyou for the compliment Ms. Black, but can I ask what are these things doing in your hands?" She asked her rage hiding behind a fake sweet smile.

"NO" The twins chorused. Amelia bit back her tongue preventing herself from laughing at the face of professor.

"Mr. & Mr. Weasley, I suppose this is your seventh year and you have your owls ahead of you?" Umbridge asked. Both the twins nodded at her.

"Very well, you'll be surprised when you see your results" Umbridge said with a fake smile. Amelia's jaw fell, did she just say that she will fail them!?

"And Ms. Black you have your O.W.L.s this year as well, dont you? come I want to discuss something" Umbridge said hugging her pink coat, Amelia could she the evil glint in her eyes.

"And you two will serve Mr. Filch in the owlry, now" Umbridge said pointing at the twins.

"Serve him? We might pass him out" George scoffed, Amelia gulped the chuckle.

"Ms. Black?" Umbridge called once again, giving whining glances to the other two, she followed the pink woman. The woman led her to her office, which really looked like someone threw up only pink & cats. Ooh, someone's in love with the minister. Amelia thought to herself when she spotted a picture of the minister on Umbridge's desk.

"Sit Ms. Black" Umbridge commanded sweetly. Amelia sat on the oink puffy chair, and Umbridge started stirring the tea in two cups.

"Oh I dont drink teaโ€“" Amelia said but was interrupted.

"I insist" Umbridge said with a smile dismissively. She handed one cup to Amelia.

"So Ms. Black, I have checked you academic records and I must say I am impressed, you are outstanding in every field"  Umbridge said sipping her tea. Amelia just nodded sipping hers which was awfully sweet.

"So what your plans after graduation?" Umbridge asked. Amelia frowned not because she never thought about it, but because why was this woman suddenly so interested.

"Um professor, i never really thought about it so I dont know" Amelia said still not bothering to think, sipping her tea. The professor hummed and Amelia could sense she had something in her mind.

"You live with your uncle, Professor Snape right?" Umbridge asked, Amelia nodded nonchalantly, but got the idea where this was going.

"Anyone else?" Umbridge asked warily.

"My godfather, Remus Lupin, he taught DADA in my third year" Amelia said steadily.

"And do you anyhow happen to know where your father might be?" Umbridge asked in a low voice. Amelia smirked to taunt her but a certain voice in her head stopped her.

Dont say anything, there's veritaserum in this tea, its taking over your mind.

Amelia widened her eyes on hearing her mother's voice. So this woman brought her here and offered tea with truth potion in it to know about her father.

Then what should I do now? Amelia questioned in her head.

You stay quite I'll speak.

What!?โ€“

"Professor I dont know anything about him, not at all, would you mind if I leave now, its getting late" The voice was Amelia's but the words were not. Amelia felt her head spin, how is this even possible?

The professor nodded with a disappointed look on her face and let Amelia go. Amelia ran out of her office as fats as possible stopping in the mid track to comprehend how that happened in the office.

Hello mum? Are you there?

No response.

Hello? Mum come on you were there just now!?

No response again

"Are you there or not!?" Amelia almost yelled.

"How did you know?"  Amelia jumped on hearing the familiar voice which came out of nowhere.

"Fred! You scared me!" She breathed out with a hand on heart.

"What did she want?" Fred asked ignoring her previous remark.

"Oh she wanted to know about my father" Amelia said shaking her head.

"And..?" Fred asked.

"And I told her that i had a really nice summer with him" Amelia said with a smile causing Fred to widen his eyes. Amelia laughed at his reaction.

"Do you really think I would have told her?" Amelia asked shaking her head smiling. Her and Fred walked along the corridor, as it was past ten in night and almost the whole school was asleep.

"Where's George btw?" Amelia asked.

"In dorm, probably sleeping" Fred said shrugging.

"And what were you doing out roaming?" Amelia asked raising an eyebrow at the taller boy.

"Couldnt sleep and then found you" He said with a small cheeky smile.

"Fortuna Major" Both said the password causing the sleeping fat lady to wake up grumpily and open the door muttering profanities under her breath. They both entered the dark common room.

"Good night I guess" Amelia said yawning.

"What no hugs!?" Fred retorted. Amelia rolled her eyes smiling and went forward to hug him.

"Hugging you feels like I am hugging a tree, you smell... Tree-ish" Amelia said still hugging him comprehending his scent.

"And you cherries, um something sweet um I dont know the name.." Fred said sniffing her making her laugh slightly pulling away.

"You dog!" Amelia let out a small laugh looking up at him. He grinned like an idiot looking down at her. Suddenly realising he still has his arms wrapped around her, his breathing quickened, he didnt fell like pulling away and just stared at her face, which was barely visible due to the dim light, but he could still see her features.

He felt all his senses go on a vacation at the moment as he suddenly started leaning in, Amelia's breath hitched feeling him close to her face. He was getting closer and closer and she felt herself being pulled more into him by his strongs arms. Now she was feeling his hot breath on her lips, her heart drumming wildly.

"Freโ€“" She gasped when his one arm tightly wrapped around her waist pulled her up and the other hand raised her chin slightly high. Her breathing was totally stopped at the moment and being pressed to him she could feel his wildly throbbing heart.

"What's this happening!?" Amelia jerked away pushing him as they heard another familiar voice. Amelia breathed heavily comprehending what she was about to do, no she didnt do anything he was doing it! Her wide eyes fell on the figure standing in front of them.

Harry Potter, the chosen one stood with a small lamp in his hand and he looked annoyed? Meanwhile Fred who was red was passing cold glares in the chosen one's direction and vice versa. Amelia effortlessly ignored the tension and ran to her dorm, quickly laying on her bed panting heavily. Her eyes till wide on what was going to happen.

"No..no..no" She muttered to herself throwing her boots off, She raised her hand seeing the blue flowered ring in her finger, she let out a pained sigh and fluttered shut her eyes, not giving chance to any moisture arise in them, and pulled the covers over her head drifting to sleep.

*. โ˜ฝ .*

The next few days passed in a haze, for Amelia, not for others, she tried her best to ignore the havoc being created by the pink woman. Many stupid rules and regulations wete made by her which not only students but also teachers were finding hard to cope with. Right now she was on her way to another boring DADA class.

Reaching there she saw her lovely cousin has already saved a seat for her. She smiled sitting beside him.

"The noble slytherin prefect" Amelia chimed mockingly. Draco rolled his eyes smiling.

"Shut up, i didnt want Pansy to sit here" Draco said with a slightly bitter tone. Amelia frowned. What did I miss?

"What about her?" She asked frowning seeing Pansy was sitting at the bac of the class with Millicent Bulstrode.

"Umm lets put it this way.. Draco called Pansy a pugface" Daphne said timidly frowning.

"WHAT!?" Amelia exclaimed loudly gaining the attention of the whole room.

"Seriously Draco!? How could you!? Why!? You dumb bleached head!" Amelia hissed badly at his face.

"What!? She was not letting me breath, always sprawled on me" Draco said fixing his collar.

"You dont have any right to judge anyone on the basis of appearance, actually no one has any right to judge anyone at all, seriously Draco, i thought you were better than thisโ€“" Amelia started scolding him.

"Please Amelia if you want you can leave too, go to here, go" Draco saud groaning hotly.

"Shut up Draco, let her sit" Blaise said with a smirk intended at Amelia, getting a slight smack from Daphne on the back of his head.

"You know I should really leave" Amelia said glaring at both the boys and leaving going to sit with Pansy. Pansy gave her a surprised look seeing her approach her.

"What!? Can I not sit with my friend?" Amelia playfully exclaimed. A small smile crept on Pansy's face and she told Millicent to 'bugger off' making room for Amelia.

"I thought you'd sit with him" Pansy said in a quite tone.

"Nope I stay away from jerks" Amelia said with a smile making Pansy let out a light laugh.

"Good Morning Class" An overly sweet irritating voice chimed loudly. Every child groaned mentally. On getting no response she repeated herself in a even louder pitch and finally children replied back in the song song monotone voice.

The professor started with her class, making everyone write endless notes.

"Why did Dumbledore even hire her!" Amelia hissed to Pansy in ear, clutching to her hand in pain from all the writing. Only if she knew the professor heard her.

"Ms. Black stay after class!" Umbridge snapped before smiling widely again. Amelia widened her eyes. Shit.

After the class ended, Amelia stayed put in her seat, as the professor told her to.

"Ms. Black" Umbridge came up in front of her with the same sickly smile

"What?" Amelia retorted in a quite tone, just feeling like to piss her off. 

"Is there any problem with my classes?" The professor asked.

Yes

Please mum, let me talk!

"When did I ever said so?" Amelia asked innocently. Umbridge clasped her hands before speaking up.

"You see Ms. Black, the school is filled with really immature children, although I love them all, but because of Dumbledore's irresponsible behavior, the school is lowering down on its level" Umbridge said roaming around a bit.

Why am I even listening to this..

"And I am appointed as the high inquisitor of this school by Cornelius himself, he belives in me that I can bring improvements in the schoolโ€“"

"Erm can you get to the point?" Amelia interrupted timidly. Umbridge supresed her annoyance with her irritating smile.

"The point Ms. Black is that if I were in Dumbledore's place, i wouldnt permit the children of criminals in my school" Umbridge said sweetly. Amelia clenched her jaw.

"And if I were in Dumbledore's place, i wouldnt hire nosy teachers without brains, and definately not the ones who have such horrible dressing sense" Amelia daid standing up hotly gaining a glare.

"Despite your good academic background Ms. Black, I find you utterly disrespectful towards teachers" Umbridge stated.

"Wow! You call yourself a teacher.. pity" Amelia mocked with a smirk and by now Umbridge was fuming. 

"Detention Ms. Black for a week in my office at 6 in the evening!" The professor almost yelled. Amelia rolled her eyes and left.

*. โ˜ฝ .*

Amelia sat with the twins in the gryffindor common room reading silently while they both did their work. What happened between Fred and Amelia a few days ago stayed unsaid. Both tried to ignore everything about that night and havent uttered a word about ut to each other. Obviously there was a change of behavior between them, awkward and shy, which was easily noticed by George.

Amelia sighed closing the book and saw it was nearly six in the evening. She rolled her eyes she had a detention right now. She got up and was questioned by George, not Fred, about where she was going at this hour. She told them about her detention with Umbridge.

Harry who was passing by nonchalantly heard what she saud and widened his eyes. He turned around to her but saw she already left, he ran after her quickly.

"Amelia wait!" He called making her halt on her steps she turned around with an annoyed look.

"You have detention with Umbridge?" He asked running towards her.

"Yes, celebrate!" She cheered uninterested.

"Shut up, listen if she tells you to write lines, erm uh write lightly, dont write with much pressure" Harry said hesitantly. Amelia frowned and squinted her eyes on him.

"Thankyou so much you made it very clear" Amelia said nodding sarcastically and turned around and left. Harry let out an exasperated sigh and went back to the common room.

"Where were you mate?" Ron asked as Harry entered the room.

"Um Amelia had detention with Umbridge, so err had to warn her" Harry sai nervously. Ron made a confused face.

"I thought you hated her" Ron said.

"I dont hate her, I just dont like her thats all" Harry defended himself.

"Thats the same thing" Ron saud shaking his head and leaving.

Its not , I might not like her, but I also dont want her to get hurt. Harry thought to himself frowning and worried.
