The Granger Girls
Chapter Three
18th June 1999 – Hermione's Flat
Hermione said goodbye to Harry and Ginny after cooking a dinner for them and then went into Isla's nursery. Isla was sat in the middle of the floor playing with the dolly that Ginny and Harry had brought her tonight.
As soon as Isla saw her mummy walk into the room she smiled with glee and reached her arms out to Hermione.
'Mama.' She said until Hermione lifted her into her arms.
Hermione walked to the corner of the room and sat down in the pink rocking chair with Isla in her lap. She reached across to the small bookcase and pulled out the fairytale book which she loved to read to her little girl. She snuggled Isla into the crook of her arm and began to read the muggle story of Repunzel.
'A long time ago, a husband and wife lived happily in a cottage at the edge of a wood. But one day the wife fell ill. She could eat nothing and grew thinner and thinner. The only thing that could cure her, she believed, was a strange herb that grew in the beautiful garden next to their cottage. She begged her husband to find a way into the garden and steal some of this herb, which was called rapunzel.' She said as she rocked back and forth in the rocking chair.
'One day, she caught the husband creeping into her garden. When he told her what he had come for, the witch gave him some rapunzel, but she made him promise to give her their first-born child in return. The husband agreed, thinking that the witch would soon forget the promise. He took the rapunzel back to his wife, who felt better as soon as she had eaten it. A year later, a baby girl was born and the witch did come and take her away. She told the couple they would be able to see their daughter in the garden behind their house. Over the years they were able to watch her grow up into a beautiful child, with long fair hair. The witch called her Rapunzel after the plant her father had come to take. When she was twelve years old, the witch decided to lock Rapunzel up in a high tower in case she tried to run away. The tower had no door or staircase, but Rapunzel was quite happy up there as she could sit at the window watching the life of the forest and talking to the birds. Yet sometimes she would sigh, for she longed to be back in the beautiful garden where she could run and skip in the sunshine. Then she would sing to cheer herself up.' Hermione stopped and looked down at Isla in her arms. The little girl was already asleep. It seemed the excitement of having Uncle Harry and Auntie Ginny round had worn her out, usually she stayed awake till the end, she was a night owl like her father was.
Hermione placed the book on top of the bookcase and stood up with Isla in her arms. She walked to the white wood cot and placed Isla down softly onto the mattress. She pulled the light pink princess duvet over her small body which was encase in a pink flowery romper suit. Once she was tucked in, Hermione placed a kiss on top of Isla's head and then walked to doorway and turned off the light. She pulled the door too and walked out the room and into the living room.
She sunk down onto the sofa and sighed as the sofa moulded to her tired and sore body. Today she had been running after Isla all day at the Burrow. After spending all day there, she came home and cooked a full roast for Isla's Godparents and her best friends; she was well and truly spent.
Hermione poured herself another wine and relaxed down on the sofa. She opened up her novel she was reading and started to read. Just as she was getting into the book she was disturbed by a floo call.
'Hermione!' Ginny shouted from the floo.
'Shhh! Isla's asleep.' She said as she walked to the floo. 'What is it?'
'Minerva just called us; she wants to know whether Harry and I can go to the school on Monday and talk about the War and everything for the third years.' She said. 'Would you mind doing it for Harry? He hasn't to work.'
'I'd have to bring Isla.' She said hoping Ginny would let her off.
'Mum can look after her for you.' Ginny replied.
'Okay, well if you can check with your mum for me that would be great.' Hermione replied.
Just then Isla began crying from her bedroom. 'Ginny I'm going to have to go. Isla's woken up. I can see this being a long night.' She said as she walked back.
'Okay. Well I hope you get some sleep. I'll pick you up tomorrow morning and we'll head to Hogwarts.' She said as she ended the call.
Hermione walked down the hallway to Isla's room and opened the door. Isla was stood up in the cot crying out for her mother. Her arms were gripping the rails and she was trying to jump upwards like she wanted out.
'its night night time.' Hermione said as she stroked her curly head.
'Mama.' She said with a huge smile making Hermione smile too.
Hermione lifted Isla out of her crib and cuddled her into her chest and kissed her head.
'Mummy's tired, she needs sleep.' Hermione said as she kissed her head.
'Sleepy Mama.' Isla repeated.
'Yes Mummy is sleepy. She needs sleep but you don't it seems.' Hermione said as she walked out of Isla's nursery and into her own room.
'Sleepy Mama.' Isla said again as Hermione put her down on her bed.
'Yes.' Hermione said as she pulled off his top and jean quickly. 'The only way mummy is going to get some sleep is if you stay with me I think.'
Isla giggled and lay back on her mother's bed. Her little hands reached out and grabbed her covered feet. She often fell asleep in this position which always amazed her.
Hermione pulled on a light night dress and got in under the covers and pulled Isla close to her. She kissed Isla's head and rubbed her stomach soothingly in hopes it would put Isla to bed.
The two Granger girls soon fell asleep.
