A/N: If you have read thus far, I would like to sugest going back to Chapter 13: Emberly. I've updated that chapter and added a bit to the end! Please enjoy this chapter, and the updated chapter!
Chapter 18: Andromeda
“Teddy! Come to the table, lunch is ready!” a witch of about 50 called out to her 11-year-old grandson.
Suddenly, a little boy with flashing colored hair runs into the dining room. “Sorry Grandma! I was making sure everything was packed in my trunk,” he said in explanation.
Laughing, Andy nodded with a fond smile, “It’s alright, Little Wolf. Is everything packed neatly?” she asked, setting his plate in front of him.
As Teddy started eating, and she sat down to her own plate, she was startled when he asked, hesitantly, “Do you think Uncle Harry will be here and take me to the train?”
Andy set her fork down gently and took her grandson’s free hand in her, “I am unsure, Teddy.” She watched as he went back to eating, his hair going a dull blue, showing his sadness.
Andy sighed, going back to her lunch. She, in a way, understood why Harry had left, but the letters to his godson had been few and far between. She prayed to Merlin that Harry would be here to see him off to Hogwarts.
Before she could continue to ponder on her thoughts, she heard a chime as the floo flared and a voice calling out, “Andy? Are you here?”
Teddy’s head shot up, his hair instant changing to black, his eyes going emerald green, and before Andy could stop the boy, he stood, knocking his chair over and shouting, “Uncle Harry!”
She sighed once more, stood, picked up Teddy’s chair, and heard “Omph!” and a crash. She winced and continued her way to the living room. Once there, she couldn’t help laughing at what she saw. There was Harry, long black hair trapped under him, making harder for him to sit up, sprawled on the floor with her grandson attached to him.
“Teddy, let the man up,” Andy said with a soft chuckle.
The two struggled for a few more moments, with several “ouch”s in the mix due to Harry’s hair being trapped beneath him, and Teddy’s knees and elbows hitting painful spots.
Once they were both standing, Harry scooped up the eleven-year-old up into his arms and hugged him tight. “I have missed you, Little Wolf, so very much,” he whispered.
Andy gave her boys a fond smile and asked, “Are you hungry, Harry?”
“Starved!” was the happy response, as he put Teddy back on his feet.
They walked back to the kitchen, Andy placed a third plate and glass on the table next to Teddy’s place. Once they were sitting, a full plate in front of Harry, Teddy asked another question, just as hesitant as the one before, “How…how long will you are staying, Uncle Harry?”
She watched as Harry looked at his godson with a sad, but fond look. Teddy had his eyes wide and filled with hope, and she hoped that Harry’s response wouldn’t crush the sweet boy.
“I am unsure, but I promise to stay until I’ve seen you off to Hogwarts. Nothing could keep me from not seeing you to the Express that first time,” he smiled brightly and reassuring, waiting for Teddy to reply.
“Promise, promise?” he asked softly.
Harry stood and moved over to where Teddy was sitting, kneeling before him. “Promise, Promise,” he said, giving the boy a tight hug.
“Good.”
Once the three went back to eating, Andy asked Harry how he has been, what he has done the last five years. Harry answered all her questions, and politely declining to answer those that he couldn’t. When Teddy asked him to tell him some stories of his travels, he did so quite excitedly.
With lunch over, Teddy dragged his godfather off to his room, showing him all his school things and asking about a dozen questions about his time at Hogwarts. She laughed as Harry indulged him, answering his many questions in stride.
She sat on the couch with a book and a cup of tea, but try as she might, she couldn’t keep her mind on the story she was attempting to read, her thoughts mostly on the boy, no, the man, that saved Wizarding Britain at the cost of many.
He was older, that much she could see in his eyes. They were older and wiser, yet still young. It was a conundrum, she though. He looked well, and happy, or as happy as he could be. She could see his sadness and loneliness that sat in his shoulders, though he did a marvelous job in hiding it from Ted, it was still there.
She sipped at her tea and continued to think. After the whole Molly and Ginevra incident, she wasn’t at all surprised that he seemingly vanished. The hurt and the anger he must have felt at their betrayal, and that of Albus Dumbledore as well. She couldn’t, and had no intention to, imagine what he must have felt.
After losing his own godfather, then Remus, Harry had practically lost every connection he had to his parents, and the family that he managed to acquire from them both. She shook her head, no, she couldn’t blame him for leaving the way he did.
“Andy?” a voice said from beside her.
“Harry, please, sit and join me,” she told him with a smile. When he was seated in the chair next to her, she asked, “How have you been, love?”
He smiled, “I’m well, better than I have been in a while, but not great, not yet.”
She nodded and asked, “What was it that you wanted to talk about?”
He placed his chin on his hand, his elbow resting on his knee as he thought about his question, or questions, which ever it may be. With a sigh, he closed his eyes and asked, “How has he been since I’ve been gone?”
“It was hard for him. He didn’t understand why you left like you did,” she shook her head and set her tea down on the small table next to her. “I tried my best to explain it to him, but I don’t think he really understood. All he knew was that his only father figure left him behind.”
“I am sorry, Andromeda. I…I had to go, but I know that I might not have done so in the best of ways. Even Draco was angry with me for leaving, despite knowing all my reason as to why I had too.”
She leaned forward and patted his knee that was closest to her, “It’s alright, I understand. You have gone through so much in your life Harry, that I am surprised you waited as long as you did before leaving. I’m happy your home though, Teddy can be a handful and I’m getting old.”
Harry looked up at her, and she gave a soft smile. “Andy, I…I don’t know how long I’ll be staying past seeing him off to Hogwarts. There’s…there’s so much here that it is…difficult,” he whispered at the end.
“Stay as long as your able, love. All I ask is that while you are hear, spend time with him?”
“Of course, Andy. That I can do, promise!”
“Good! I’m an old woman and he is a very active child,” she laughed softly.
Before either of them could say anything else, there was a ‘pop’ and a house elf was standing in front of Harry, wringing her hands. “Tilly?” Harry asked, concern in his voice.
“Master wishes for Master to return. He says that there is something that he needs to speak to Master about and that it is urgent,” the little elf said.
Harry knelt in front of the elf, taking her hands in his, “Is it Emberly?” he asked.
Tilly nodded, her big ears flapping before she said, “It is about her, but from what I know little miss is well enough. I do not know what Master wishes to speak about. Please be coming with Tilly, Master,” she asked.
Harry glanced at her, his question in his eyes. “Go, I will tell Teddy that it was urgent, but you’re to return tomorrow and take the boy to the park.”
“Of course, Andy, thank you!” he said, turning back to the elf, “You can take me Tilly.” With a nod from the elf, both she and Harry were gone with a ‘pop’.
“Grandma?” a voice asked, coming down the stairs. Once Teddy appeared, he noticed his godfather’s absence, “Where did Uncle Harry go? He said he would stay for dinner.”
“He had to go. A house elf came to tell him that he was urgent, but he did promise to be here for breakfast if he isn’t able to be her for dinner,” she told him.
“Oh, ok,” he said, despondent and scuffing his shoe against the rug. “I’m…I’m gunna go outside for a little bit,” he whispered, before darting into the kitchen and out the back door.
Andromeda winced as the door slammed behind him. She could understand his reaction. Harry just getting back, then leaving after a few hours visit. If she were her grandson, she would be just as upset.
