The Forgotten Twin

Chapter 20

"I am pretty amazing, aren't I?" Draco stated, seeming to become more confident.

"Humble too," Delilah muttered, glaring daggers at Daphne, wishing she could transform into her fox form and run, but that would just cause more issues.

"Do you want to go sit down or stand here and keep glaring at Daphne?"

Delilah rolled her eyes but followed him to a seat not too far away. Daphne stayed with Andrei, she seemed to have some self-preservation skills after all, or more likely she just wanted to flirt more with him.

"You know," Draco whispered, "you're pretty amazing too."

Delilah's face heated up even more as she studied her empty plate as he stared fixedly at her.

"Thanks," she murmured.

They finished eating in silence.

"I'm going to go write a letter, do you want to come?" Delilah inquired.

Draco shook his head.

"I promised the boys that I'd hang with them today and tomorrow, they're probably already mad I didn't eat with them. See you later?" He phrased the last bit more as a question than a statement.

Delilah nodded.

"See you later."

She walked down to the common room, which was thankfully empty. As she passed one of the side tables, she noticed a box full of 'Harry Stinks' badges. Smirking, she pulled out her wand, enchanted them to say, 'Blaise Stinks', she left the 'Cedric Rules' side alone, switching all of them to that side. The Slytherins wouldn't even notice the change.

Delilah went to her room, and pulled out the ink and parchment.

What should I say? She hissed.

I don't know, Midnight indignantly replied. He's your Godfather.

Indeed, Remus was. In one of his earlier letters he had told her, but when Delilah asked if she and Harry could live with him, he flatly refused, saying he couldn't provide for them.

Dear Remus,

Harry did amazing in the first task, though I have no idea how he thought of summoning his broom. He really could have just summoned the egg, sure it was probably enchanted so the spell wouldn't work, but it would have been worth a try. Honestly, people overthink all the time, myself included. But he's alive, and that's what matters.

The Yule Ball is coming up, it's on Christmas Night, and I have already agreed to go with someone, Draco Malfoy. I know Harry hates him, he wasn't nice at first, but he's grown out of it. Now he's very nice and kinda sweet... obnoxious too, but no teenager isn't.

And that's basically all that's new. I'm sending some Wolfbane with this, the Room of Requirement somehow had most of the ingredients, and the rest were easily 'borrowed' from Snape. Don't worry, I didn't steal them, I duplicated some, and after making sure they worked used them. If you need more after this let me know and I can send you a bigger amount, just send that ginormous water bottle back and I'll fill it.

Hope this helps, Love Delilah

P.S. Who's the older twin? I meant to ask earlier but it slipped my mind.

Delilah nodded, content with the letter. She sealed it, added the bottle, and headed up to the owlery. Of course, Fred and George were there, muttering. They stopped when she entered.

"It's just me, still trying to reach Bagman?"

They nodded.

"He's avoiding us, but he can't forever!" Fred declared.
