Chapter 10
Number 12 Grimmauld Place (Part 1)

“So where do you live anyways?” Sirius asked curiously on the Hogwarts Express the next day.
“In a muggle region actually,” Dezi responded.
“Which area?”
“I’m not sure what the area is called by actually...” she lied, shrugging.
The train slowed down amazingly quick, and it came to a full stop. The two of them gathered their things, and pushed their way through the walkways to the outside of the train. Despite how much Dezi didn’t want to return to Grimmauld Place, she hoped if she wasn’t as much a ‘pain’ as before, life would be easier. She planned to start with calling them mum and dad like she actually meant it.
She had owled Harry and Ginny about Sirius’s/Shane’s stay, making sure they didn’t give out their last name to him, and that if Sirius noticed the scar, Harry had to come up with a story about how he got it other than ‘Voldemort attacked me when I was a baby and your best friend got killed only to have you framed and put into Azkaban for twelve years’.
Dezi then spoke to Darren and Chloe, and she swore she’d hex them into the next year if they said their last name.
Stepping out of the train, Dezi cause sight of Ginny’s vibrant red hair in the crowd of adults and joined them.
“Hey mum, dad!” she said as she and Sirius caught up with Ginny and Harry.
“Hi dear,” Ginny said with a small smile. Harry seemed to disappear into the crowds.
“Shane, my mom...”
“Just call me Ginny, dear,” she responded, smiling.
“Thanks for letting me stay,” Shane responded, grinning.
“No problem.”
Harry immerged from the crowds with Darren in one hand and Chloe in the other, seeming to drag them out of the crowd.
“I’m starting to think twice about what time we arrive here...”
“And this is my dad...”
“Just call me Harry,” he responded, smiling as Chloe and Darren pulled away from him. To Ginny’s relief, his scar was hidden by his hair (which is still as messy as it ever was when he was younger).
“So out of curiosity, how are we getting home?” Dezi asked.
“Ministry cars.”
Harry seemed to stifle a laugh. Every time he heard the words ‘ministry car’, he thought of the Ford Anglia, he and Ron had to take in 2nd year. Ginny gave him a warning glare. The crowd thinned, and Ginny, Harry, Darren, Chloe, Dezi and Shane following behind her, left Platform 9¾. They left Kings Cross Station and milled into two cars, Darren and Chloe going with Harry, and Dezi and Shane went with Ginny.
Backing the car out of the parking spot, Ginny drove off.
“Since when could you drive the muggle way, mum?” Dezi asked, surprised.
“Since I was a child, I drove the Ford grandpa got when I was in school,” she responded as she turned out of the station’s parking lot.
“So you live in a muggle area?” Shane asked after a few moments silence.
“Yes,” Ginny responded, nodding.
“I used too as well, which area?”
“We don’t really know the name of the... townhouse area,” Ginny responded slowly. She forgot the muggle term for a group of houses in one area.
“What street is it then?” Shane pressed.
“We don’t really walk down it enough to know,” Ginny responded simply. They drove quickly down a straightaway, and Dezi started recognizing the area.
“Oh... well do you know the address at least?”
Ginny shook her head no. Shane chuckled. He looked around and his face flooded of all colour.
“I’ve been here before...” he mumbled, nearly inaudibly.
“Pardon me?” Dezi inputted, smiling innocently.
“I’ve probably just... passed by here before...”
Dezi smiled again as Ginny turned onto a dark street.
“I’ve definitely been here before,” he breathed. The car stopped behind the other Ministry car, and Ginny pulled out the keys and got out of the car. Dezi followed lead, and Shane did the same. He looked at the houses.
“Where’s the house in between...?”
“Read this and memorize it,” Ginny responded, passing Shane a piece of paper. His eyes scanned the paper and they widened. He turned to look at them.
“You’ve got to be kidding me!” he exclaimed.
