As December moved in to Hogwarts Hermione was seconds from ripping out all of her hair and screaming like a banshee. Dumbledore had caught ahold of her before she could destroy the diary and told her that she wasn’t to use any dark magic to kill it. When she fought with him he finally told her that Voldemort had moved in to the ministry and was keeping a close eye on Hogwarts and the magic that flowed through it and that any dark spells would alert him. So now it was December and everyone was getting ready to go home for the holidays she, James and Remus would be going to the same house. Severus and surprisingly Sirius were staying behind at the school (raised eyebrow) and Lily was off skiing with her family so they would not see each other until after the New Year. Hermione was bringing home the diary and the ring but mainly to protect them, they had decided to collect all the pieces and to burn them with FiendFyre then and hopefully end everything all at once.
Hermione was, for once, not looking forward to Christmas. She would miss all of her friends greatly but she would also miss searching and researching for these fragments of Voldemorts soul. Going home and having to spend time with her “family”, opening presents, laughing, joking and pretending to not be missing not only her friends back at the school but her dead friends in her own time would be cruel and unusual punishment. Lily was packing up some clothes, books and her wand talking endlessly about the mountains and the pictures she would bring back and the stories that she would have.
“Hermione” Alice said as she walked in the room “Your brother is…ah freaking out in the common room”
“What happened?” Hermione asked instantly worried.
“He said he needs to talk with you, immediately” Alice answered with a grin. Hermione gave her a strange look and then walked out the door and down to the common room where James was pacing and running his hands through his already messed up hair.
“What’s wrong” Hermione stopped him in his tracks fear running through her eyes, making her heart pound and the blood in her veins freeze.
“Our Grandmother is spending the whole Christmas Holiday with us” He answered.
“What?” Hermione looked at him “I thought someone was dead…you jerk!”
“No!” He grabbed her arms “You don’t understand because you’re not…you’re not my Hermione…you’re a different one…this isn’t good, not for you!”
“What do you mean?” Hermione asked carefully.
“Well” He held a paper out to her “Mum may be a bit on the old fashion but she loves you and wants nothing more than for you to be happy. She sent me this so we would know what to expect when we go home tomorrow”
“Give it to me” Hermione snatched the letter from his hands, she saw that it was a letter not from their mother but someone else, she assumed it was from the feared grandmother.
Cassandra,
I have decided to not go to France for the Christmas holiday this year.
Instead, I will be spending it with you and your darling family as I have
not had the luxury of spending any quality time with my granddaughter.
She will be sixteen by now if my math is correct and she should be getting
ready to be married the June after her seventeenth birthday, I would expect
her to have a betrothed by now. I should like to meet him as well and make sure that he is right kind of man to carry on our bloodline, if she is not betrothed then I shall be taking her with me as discussed when she entered Hogwarts. I expect her to be a bit wild as she has only James to look to and I daresay her twin is a little unhinged, but there must be a suitable marriage if she comes to me I am thinking maybe young Regulus Black I had been hoping for Lucius Malfoy but sources tell me his is already engaged. I look forward to seeing all of you in December.
Love,
Mother.
“What are we going to do?” Hermione whispered.
“We could use Remus” James said carefully “He will already be with us…”
“No” Hermione said remembering her conversation with Andromeda she stood straighter and held her head high “Someone like our grandmother would know that Remus is a half-blood and would not be okay with us being together and in the end I would have to leave with her anyway…there is no way around this”
“Maybe I should stay here” Remus said sadly from the bottom of the stairs leading to boys dorm “I don’t want to cause problems”
“Sirius” Hermione smiled “He was going to come by anyway on Christmas Eve…”
“What do you need from me, love?” Sirius dropped himself on to the couch and raised his hips “Care for a few…suggestions?”
“Sirius I need you…” Hermione started
“I knew it” He grinned
“You’re help” She finished, then went on to explain the visit to him finishing with “So I need you to send me letters with all your “love”, presents I can pay you back and on Christmas we need to pretend to be in to each other”
“Interesting” He said “I guess that could work, but I’m not really sure what to say in the letters” Hermione stood and walked towards the girls dorm but stopped near him and whispered:
“Whatever you feel for Severus unless rude and horribly disgusting put it in a letter to me” Then she walked up the stairs silently fuming over the stupid old woman that was messing everything up she knew that James was sending their mother the new and she also knew that she and Sirius would have to “break up” in January.
~~~Home~~~
Cassandra had written a letter back and told her that she was very happy with her choice of husband and then an idea for an outfit to wear the next day home. So, Hermione was sitting with Remus and James wearing a light blue pencil skirt that went down to her knees and a matching blue button down blouse that was just a little too tight around her breasts and matching heels. It was as close to her mother’s description of the “perfect” outfit as she could get, but the way Remus’s eyes kept nervously darting over her chest she didn’t think this outfit would make her grandmother very happy.
“Remus” Hermione hissed when James chased the food cart down the corridor to get them all some food “When we get to the house STOP looking at my chest!”
“So it’s okay until then?” He smiled playfully. Hermione blushed a little and after a second she slid her hand across the little space between them and flicked his pinkie with hers making him look at her and smile while a faint blush rose on his face.
“James told you about our grandmother being there, right?” Hermione asked, looking at their hands and thinking about how nice it was to just hold someone’s hand… ‘When did he take my hand?’ Hermione asked herself.
“Yes” He answered rubbing her knuckles with his thumb “Hermione…” He bit his and looked at her “I really…like…”
“Hey you guys” James plopped down across from them noting their hands moving quickly apart and frowning a little “Chocolate Frogs, pumpkin pasties, you name it, I got it!”
“Nice” Hermione shook her head “I’ll be back” She stood and made her way out of the carriage heading for the bathroom, they were almost to the platform and she wanted to make sure that she looked good before she had to meet her grandmother.
“Remus” James said frowning at his friend “Are you interested in my sister?”
“What?” Remus almost shouted in his shock “No…of course not…I mean…duh…it’s…it’s Hermione”
“Were you guys holding hands?” James squinted at his suddenly nervous friend.
“No” Remus shook his head “Are you mental…she tried to kill me…No”
~~~Potter Manor~~~
Hermione was back in the room she had woken up in. She walked through the room and replaced some of the pictures of herself with new pictures that featured her and Lily, her and Remus, her and Sirius (she put that one on her bedside table) then there were pictures all around the room with all of them laughing and playing pranks. Hermione was annoyed to see the one with her and Remus in it was not behaving at all and she when she heard someone in the hallway she was forced to pull the picture down and hide it in her dresser. The Hermione in the picture kept batting her eyes at Remus and taking his hand, he would blush and look away and occasionally he would kiss her fingers making her image giggle.
“Bloody images” She muttered looking at the images flirting shamelessly “You know you’re not dating, right?”
“Honey” Cassandra said from the doorway “Your grandmother wants to speak with you. She is very happy with your betrothed…as am I” Hermione walked to where her grandmother was sitting drinking her tea through tight lips as she watched James and Remus flying around the backyard.
“Grandmother?” Hermione waited for the older woman to notice her.
“Ah, yes” She turned her head regally. She was actually rather pretty her back was straight as a board, her light blond hair was in a tight braid but Hermione could see that it was probably just as wild as her own, her eyes were a cold light blue color, she had full pink lips and pale skin with light freckles on her nose “Hermione. How are you?”
“I am well, grandmother” Hermione answered “And you?” She was letting her memories show her how she should be acting with this formidable woman.
“I have to take a daily potion for my back pain” She said “However that is not your problem. Can you tell me something?”
“Of course” She said sitting near the older woman and followed the finger that was pointing out to the backyard.
“Who is that boy with James?” She asked.
“His name is Remus Lupin” Hermione told her “He is one of the top students in Hogwarts”
“Why is he here?” She wondered “Why is he not with his family?”
“His parents were killed in September” She answered looking down at her feet “He has no other family members”
“Poor dear” The woman surprised her by saying “He is smart, handsome and appears to be athletic. What is his blood status?”
“Half-blood” Hermione answered and shook her head slightly when her grandmother’s lips pursed in distaste.
“Better than muggle-born I suppose” She said “I have to say that when I learned you were seeing Sirius Black I was not entirely happy with the choice”
“Why not” Hermione was completely at a loss “I…thought he was a good choice”
“I did so as well” She answered “But they are siding with the dark lord and in all honesty I would never put you in that situation. I’m sorry dear but you cannot marry him”
“But I will not leave Hogwarts” Hermione snapped.
“A private tutor in Russia is a better idea” She told Hermione in clipped tones “You will introduced to society and then married to the best choice”
“No I won’t be” Hermione glowered “I am staying at Hogwarts or so help me Merlin I will runaway!”
“I figured you would say that” The woman smiled “That is why I’ve been so interested in that young man”
“IN REMUS?!” Hermione shrieked causing her brother and Remus to look over in shock.
“Don’t be so shocked” The woman smiled “Half-bloods are okay as well…and we still have James”
‘James is going to marry Lily’ Hermione thought biting her lip ‘And half-bloods are okay…but how do you feel about half-breeds?’
A/N: I jumped a few months I know but…well…just keep up with me please.
