**A/N** Hello! The above image is what I picture Larke Reece to look like. AKA Chandler's new girl (and one of Ophelia's ex girls lol) Enjoy!

--------------

"Mum, This is Chandler, Chandler this is my Mum."

Chandler and I are standing awkwardly in front of Mum and Cassie. I really wasn't expecting her to still be around the school so I thought we could get a head start on the search for the stone today. Clearly, I was wrong.

"Chandler, pleasure to meet you," Mum says sticking her hand out of her robes.

Chandler takes her hand in his and shakes it gently, "Oh no, the pleasure's all mine." He says, his tone makes my stomach churn.

"Nope, that's not happening." I say pulling Chandler's arm away from Mum, "Talk about your thoughts on my sister's rack all you want but you're not flirting with my Mum."

Cassiopeia shrieks, "Ophelia!"

I roll my eyes and ignore her, "Aren't you uhm, heading back to the shop soon Mumma?"

Mum raises one of her eyebrows and looks between me and Chandler, "Why? You two have some woodland creature party you've got to get to?"

Chandler laughs way too loudly at Mum's shite joke, "Oh Missus Weasley, you're too funny."

"Keep it in your pants Miller that's my Mum your talking to." I say in a hushed tone, "I'm just saying. It's the weekend and I'm sure Dad is stressed about not having you around."

"What makes you girls think that your father is incapable of spending the day without me?" Mum says to both Cassie and me.

I shrug, "The separation anxiety for the most part."

"The fact that when you left him before you got back together he was a drunk for five years," Cassie adds.

"The fact that even when you're working at the shop and talking with a customer he's touching you in some way?"

Mum laughs, "I was just about to head off, but then you waddled by. A red weasel, fitting."

Chandler laughs again, way too loudly and I roll my eyes, "Ha ha ha, very funny. Poke fun at my animagus form."

"Not poking fun darling, I love weasels," Mum pinches my cheeks, "No matter how utterly annoying they can be."

"Muuum," I groan and she smiles.

"Right, best be off then, let you lot enjoy the rest of your weekend." Mum gives me a hug then gives Cassiopeia one too.

"Allow me to walk you back to the castle Missus Weasley, big place, don't need you getting lost." Chandler steps forward toward Mum but I grab onto the back of his shirt collar and pull him backwards.

"She was a bloody student here Chandler, she knows how to get back to the castle," I say to him.

"Thank you for the offer Mister Miller, but I'll be alright. Wouldn't want to distract from your fox adventures now would I?" Mum smiles at Chandler and I literally watch him swoon, then she looks at me, "I promised myself I would never discipline my children in front of their friends, but when you get home for Christmas holiday..."

"Yeah, I know you're gonna set my arse on fire," I say without really thinking who I'm talking to.

"Ophelia," Mum says sharply.

"Sorry, habit. Don't get lost in the Floo Network yeah?"

Mum gives me and Cassiopeia hugs again and manages to avoid Chandler trying to get a hug from her too and walks off back towards the castle.
