Louis hesitated at the professor's question, though he appreciated that she stopped being mysterious and cryptic. He was't sure how much about his insecurities to reveal, he could hardly tell her he felt like an impostor. "It's... just a little overwhelming, it's not bad, but there's a lot of...

Louis laughed a little nervously as the professor said she knew who he was and that she remembered him. She sounded a little creepy, and Louis' mind scrambled to remember if he had ever gotten in trouble with her before. He also wondered if her emphasis on the word 'professor' meant she didn't...

Louis jumped when he heard a teacher voice, feeling like he got caught doing something he shouldn't do. He looked over at the woman who spoke, eyes wide. He relaxed little when she said she had she had mistaken him for a student. He decided to take it as a compliment. "Oh, easy mistake." He...

Louis smiled, then moved over to sit on one of the beds. "It's cool that you're a nurse and all." He said, picking up a rolled up bandage and tossing it into the air before catching it again. "Just wanted to check in- catch up I guess? It's nice that there's someone around my own age here." He...

It was absolutely surreal, sitting here at the staff table. Louis felt like any moment now, someone was going to look at him and ask him what he was doing here, or tell him that it had just been a joke and he hadn't really been hired to work here. He glanced at his uncle as he spoke, then...

It was strange, to be the youngest professor here. Louis knew he was hardly a professor, instructor was probably a better name for his position. But still. He had been happily surprised to see someone around his age on the staff, and someone he knew as well. Molly Burke had been his roommate's...

Louis couldn't quite believe he was back here at Hogwarts, as a teacher no less. It wasn't really the career he had envisioned for himself, but it was kind of nice to be back too. Strange, to eat at the same table as his old professors. He still felt like one of the kids, if he was honest. But...

Louis knew he had hurt his dad and it made him feel bad, but he knew he was in the right. His dad shouldn't have kept this information from him. He sighed. "I'm going to my room, please don't come." He said, grabbing some of the now cold food he had taken home and heading to his room.

Date

Louis was glad his dad apologized, but he didn't think it was going to be enough. He was hurt by his mom, but that was nothing new. The betrayal of his dad hurt more. "Dad... I get that you tried to do what's best, but you had to know that it'd hurt me not to know you spoke to her and saw her."...

Louis looked at Alexander sadly. "Dad, if you have to convince her- if you have to try again and again and she keeps saying no... what am I supposed to do?" He asked him, feeling defeated. "You say I shouldn't react from my gut, but it's not like it's even up to me, is it? She's made her...

Louis nodded, his anger rising. "Yeah, I wasn't supposed to see you hang out with my estranged mother in my own house because you arranged to meet behind my back! Dad, that's f*cked up, you know that right?!" He yelled. As his father continued to talk, Louis groaned. "So contact authorities...

Louis whirled on his dad, frowning. "I could have made choices if you had told me! Now I don't have any choices left because you blindsided us both." He snapped. "What chances do I have now, huh? Now that she ran off at the sight of me? I don't want her, she doesn't want me. Clear cut, right?"...

Louis frowned at his dad's explanation, why was he defending her? Protecting her? "So what? Let her run! She's not our problem, she's not- if she doesn't want me I don't want her, I don't need her." He snapped, getting to his feet and starting to pace around. "And she didn't even have to know! I...

Louis looked at his trembling hands as he tried to take in what his dad was saying, he shook his head. "Why- why didn't you at least tell me about her? That she was here?" He asked shakily. "Or why didn't you just- tell her to leave? To go away if she still didn't want me?" He looked up at his...
