Christmas 2017, Albus, Lily, Roxane and Teddy /2
Harry liked champagne, and he always let Albus, James and Lily taste a bit during special occasions. Albus sat next to his father, and asked for the story he had been promised concerning Polyjuice and Slytherin common room. Lily cuddled with her brother, both beaming with the perspective of a story.
Bill listened too, chuckling when Percy finally discovered what exactly his little brother was doing in the Girl's toilets during his second year. To be fair, the look on his face was hilarious and the children listening (Roxane and Teddy were sitting with them too now) all laughed.
Harry didn't talk about Ginny's possession, Chamber of Secrets and Voldemort's Horcruxe. He merely said that this was the year student were getting petrified, and they suspected the culprit to be Draco Malfoy. Albus tensed and Lily took his hand.
« There was a time where you could be in danger at Hogwarts ? » Roxane asked, concerned.
« It was Voldemort's doing, but we didn't know that », Harry admitted. « Draco Malfoy was full of himself, bragging about pretty much everything, and we were ready to jump to conclusion because we didn't know who else it can be. It couldn't have been a twelve years old's doing, but when you're twelve, you never think about how young you are. »
He told them about Hermione's work, and about the cat's hair, about the awful taste of the juice and how stupid Crabbe and Goyle must have been in general that Ron and Harry's poor disguise didn't alert Malfoy. He told Albus about the common room during his Hogwarts time, and they were laughing at Hermione.
When the story ended, Harry went to help in the kitchen, and Lily asked Victoire why she looked so pale. James teased Albus and Hugo, and Roxane stopped her brother from climbing the Christmas tree.
