A train ride is funny part 1

They stepped onto platform 9 ¾ with a flourish.
Harry was incredibly glad that vacation was over. Harry had fallen to bed absolutely exhausted every night since Remus had set up the curriculum for controlling his wild magic. He hadn't even thought about the fact that the rooms were still connected.
but it had paid off. Harry had had another outbreak. And that's only because he had found out what rights he would be entitled to if he got his family ring. Which he was entitled to at 13. and it was also very clear to him why the director did not hand him out. After all, he would then have the right to choose a guardian himself. And more money would be available to him. Although he had never made use of it until now. but they would also manage the guardianship, the three men had promised him.
Otherwise the lessons were very successful. Harry was so busy that he hadn't even noticed the looks of the people in the taproom.
yesterday Hagrid came and took Sirius, or rather Blacky, with him. Remus had left too.
Beside him he heard a growl.

"Is something wrong, Professor?"
“You can say that out loud, I haven't ridden that stupid train in years. They all stare at me as if I were one of the horsemen of the apocalypse. "
Harry giggled.
“The clothes would fit. the fifth rider, his name, 'poisoner'. "
Severus gave him a light slap on the back of the head.
“Naughty brat.
They look like they don't know which of us to stare at them. "
Only then did the boy notice the looks. on his first trip nobody knew who he was. And last year he hadn't taken the train.
"Merlin, does that never stop?"
severus growled again and put a hand on the boy's back to guide him through the crowd.
Again and again he had to keep parents at a distance with angry looks.
“Look, Professor. What is Mr. Malfoy doing here? He doesn't have to bring draco here anymore. "
The teacher followed the student's gaze. It was true, the blond aristocrat was standing in a quieter corner and scowling at the crowd. or rather, to his ex-wife and her son.
"Do you mind if we ...?"
"I was just about to suggest the same thing," the boy interrupted.
"Good, woe to you if you interrupt me in class."
"I'm not tired of life."
severus did not comment on this claim.

“Lucius, good to see you. Even if I don't know what brings you here. "
The blond man turned elegantly. He raised his eyebrows in surprise.
"Severus, I wouldn't have expected you here either."
The two shook hands.
"I'm here to accompany you."
Lucius turned his gaze to Harry and smiled slightly at him.
“I see, I've read the articles. Manager?"
“Just be quiet, I've had to listen to that from several quarters over the past few weeks. And that is not the reason for my presence either. "
Lucius said nothing, but you could tell that he found the whole thing very amusing.
“Good afternoon, Mr. Malfoy. I'm sorry about last year. "
Now the man looked surprised.
“And what are you sorry for, exactly, Mr. Potter. You didn't do anything wrong. It was only my supposed son's fault. "
Harry kneaded his hands nervously.
“I mean about Dobby. He sent you flying. "
Now the politician smiled again.
“Yes, and I had to be very careful not to break into a fit of laughter. Not sent for a lord, not in public. the little one really has a surprising amount of power. I am glad that you freed him. "
Harry looked at Severus in surprise.
"I told you he wasn't going to be mad."
"So you two talked about me?asked the man, amused.
Severus snorted.
"Was inevitable after so many articles appeared about you and those over there."
Lucius nodded and again gave Narcissa cold looks.
"Mr. Malfoy? "

"Yes?" Asked the man absently.
"Why are you here now?"
That got him the man's full attention again.
“As you must have read in the papers, I want to know who Draco's father is. since my dear ex-wife can no longer remember all the men with whom she cheated on me and who are in question, I applied for a spell at the ministry. "
"Which one?" Severus wanted to know.
“A little ritual spell, all it took was a hair from the dear Narcissa. She doesn't know about it, but she also has no right to oppose it. I arranged for the ritual to be performed today. in a few minutes we'll know who Ms. Black shared the bed with. "
Harry gave the two of them a big look.
"As the?"
Severus explained.
“Quite simply, it's a kind of tracking ritual. A sign is visible above everyone who had or still has something with the woman. With the exception of Lucius, of course. "
Harry looked questioningly at the blond man.
"Why didn't you take Draco's hair? then it would be immediately clear who his father is. "
Lucius smiled again.
"Very well recognized, but I want compensation from all men who thought they could humiliate me."
You could see how angry Lucius was. but Harry noticed something else as well. He also saw disappointment and hurt in the man's eyes. It was certainly not pleasant to find out that one had been betrayed for years.
Severus noticed Harry's expression. he put his hand on his back again.
"Do not worry. Lucius will get over it. "
Harry nodded.
