By December, Hermione was busy writing a new book that she was sure would take the wizarding world by storm. By the first of that month she was moving in to a new home on the outside of Ottery St. Catchpole about ten miles from Molly and six miles from Harry and Ginny. She had learned through the grapevine about her red-haired friend trying to get her full custody of her children but made her stop even though she knew she would win. She and Ron didn’t get along but he wasn’t keeping Rose from her and Hugo came to visit every weekend. Now, she sat in her new small country home in the office she had set aside for herself working on the book.
“How many rooms are in this house, Hermione?” Ron asked as he walked in, showing the rare ability to move stealthily through a room and startling her completely.
“It is ten bedrooms, Ronald” She answered putting her hand over her heart.
“Nice” He looked around “What is it you wanted to talk to me about?”
“I am writing a book” She told him and he nodded “It’s about my struggle through the war and I was wondering if I could get you to sign the contract saying that you won’t sue me for using your name in the book”
“You won’t make me sound like a git will you?” He asked.
“Oh Ronald” She sighed and leaned back “It is only too simple to make you sound like a git…”
“I wanted this to be a good visit” He said “I wasn’t trying to fight…once upon a time we used to be best friends”
“And once upon a time my waist line never bothered you” She snipped “However, I am sorry for what I said it was uncalled for. No, I will not make you sound like a git, a lot of the book is going to be about our time in school the horrors that we faced together and my own personal horrors and our time on the run” She handed the contracted across the desk “Nothing to make you look bad”
“I…” He looked down and sloppily signed his signature to the contract which immediately disappeared to the ministry hall of records “I wanted to tell you something”
“Go ahead” She looked skeptical but allowed him to continue “I want you to know that I still love you. I loved you when we got married and still do but the difference now is that the love I feel isn’t for a woman that I am or was married to. I wouldn’t give up my kids for anything and I wouldn’t give up the memories we have but I think when we married I didn’t love you properly and therefor as the years went by I allowed my emotions turn me in to a monster”
“Where is this coming from?” She asked.
“I don’t know if you know” He said “But the Department of Child Welfare was called on me and when they were telling me that I could lose my rights to see or spend any time with my children” He looked at his hands and for the first time in many years Hermione saw the shy little boy he had once been “Hermione…I am not a good father” She opened her mouth to argue but he held his hand up “I know I’m not. Rose hates visiting me and I don’t know if I can ever win her back…all I have left is Hugo and I’m trying to be there for him”
“You can still patch it up with Rose” Hermione said “It’s never too late”
“I don’t want to lose our children” He whispered “I was terrified when I was told that it was a possibility and when I asked Rose why she hated me you know what she said?” Hermione shook her head “She said it was because she hated the way I treated you, I know I said and did terrible things to you and beg you to please forgive me”
“Ron” She said, he looked up in shock as it had been many years since she had called him anything other than ‘Ronald’ and it felt like old times “I think I can forgive you now”
“Really, Mione?” He smiled.
“Don’t use the nickname, I’ve always hated it” She snapped playfully “Don’t push your luck!”
~~~((@))~~~
“I can’t believe you forgave it” Ginny sighed as they stood on the platform awaiting the train with Harry, who was doing much better since he caught the death eater wannabe, however two of the three missing muggleborns had been killed.
“Don’t call you brother an ‘it’” Hermione said with a laugh “That’s not nice. And it’s not like we’re getting back together or anything I mean he and Lavender are engaged”
“I know but he’s a git” Ginny growled as the train moved closer.
“And if I didn’t forgive everyone who was a complete git to me I would have no friends” Hermione said.
The students all hopped off the train but along with the students came Minerva McGonagall as well and she was walking right for Hermione. The two women embraced and talked briefly about Rose’s year to which she had to assure the woman that she did indeed know that Rose was dating Scorpius Malfoy. Though she was honestly surprised that they were still together as most students would be on their third ‘boyfriend’ by now. Then again her Rose was more mature than any of the other students so that would explain why they were still together.
“Hermione” Minerva said “I was wondering if you would do something for me”
“Sure, what is it?” Hermione said.
“I have a fifth year that I have learned is being abused at home with her muggle parents” Minerva said “She told me that her father drinks and is constantly telling that she is worthless and hitting her and recently has started making comments about her being of ‘baby making age’ and that it makes her nervous”
“What about her mother?” Hermione asked in horror.
“Apparently her mother is usually drugged out of her mind with some street drug” Minerva answered “Anyway, I am trying to avoid the mistakes that Albus made by ignoring the claims of abuse made by first Tom Riddle, then Severus Snape and then Harry Potter. I think a lot of horror could have been avoided for all three if someone had listened and done something about it”
“I agree” Hermione said as she watched Scorpius and Rose kissing goodbye “What do you need from me”
“I need a place for this girl to go for the summer holidays” Minerva said “I’ve called the muggle police but she needs someone to take care of her until she is of age…would you?”
“Of course” Hermione said “I have plenty of room”
“Thank you” Minerva said looking back to the train which was getting ready to leave “I need to go, I will see you later and thank you again”
Rose talked about Scorpius nonstop the entire way home. Hermione could barely get a word in but it was fine she loved to hear her daughter talk about something so passionately and a little worried about how close the two were becoming. Rose ran up the stairs to write to Scorpius because she forgot to tell him something. Hermione laughed and went to the mail table, it was where she told the (free) house-elves that worked by choice for her to put all the mail that came when she was out.
Dear Hermione,
I heard that you and Ron have started to patch up the holes in your friendship and hope that you will finally join all of us for Christmas dinner at the Burrow. Molly misses you so much and Ginny said that if you don’t show up on your own accord she will drug you and drag you back. So…I don’t think you have much of a choice here.
Love, Harry
She shook her head and wrote a response to him saying that she and Rose would indeed be there to make everyone’s Christmas better with their mere beauty. She knew that he would get a kick out of that and couldn’t wait for the answer she would get back. She sighed when she saw the next letter and thought about throwing it away without looking at it but shook her head.
Dear Hermione,
Please don’t throw this away. I know what happened back in October was my fault, I was impulsive, argumentative and cruel but I didn’t mean to hurt you.
I am such an idiot and I thought that life would be easier without you constantly on my mind but it isn’t you are all I think about. I have been on a few dates and none of them can hold a candle to you in any way. Not to your intelligence, your kindness, your bravery, your beauty or your love, you may think I don’t know what it feels like to be the receiver of your love but you are wrong. I felt it that night at the dinner party over the summer, when I walked you back to the cottage it was reflecting in your eyes and I didn’t feel like I was strong enough to be the one you looked at like that.
The relationship with my father however romantic or sexual it was or wasn’t doesn’t matter to me anymore. I was shocked and felt…inferior to whatever my father may have been like and I was nervous that I could never live up to it.
Hermione please don’t hate me forever. I made a mistake but everyone makes mistakes and others should be able or willing to forgive or at least talk about it. You’ve not allowed us to even speak, you moved away…ran away is more like, please forgive me.
Love, Teddy
Hermione sighed and folded the letter and put it in her pocket. The last thing she needed was Rose coming down and reading it, she would have too many questions and while she trusted her thirteen year old there were some things that she didn’t need to know. She picked up the last letter which had a seal with the letter ‘M’ on it, it was an invitation to a Malfoy party. She growled.
Hermione-
There is an invitation coming towards you for our New Years Party as it is the party to go to each year. However, there is an announcement my wife and I would love to make but can’t until we are all on the same page. As you know my son, Scorpius and your Rose have been friends since they were eight and dating for the past year.
My son wrote me a letter last month about something close to his heart and after much consideration and talking with his mother we have agreed to bring it up to you. I would like to write up a contract between the Malfoy’s and the Weasleys (Granger in your case)this would be a marriage contract. With the signing of you, Ronald Weasley, Astoria and myself we give our permission to have them be magically bound. With the kids signatures it states that they know what they are entering and that they will allow themselves to be magically bound.
I know that this is probably a terrifying and barbaric thought, Hermione. But my son came to me with this in his mind, he told me that the day he met Rose he knew that they were supposed to be together. He claims that Rose has said the same to him and that she is sure to want to be with him. If it makes you feel better I will make it so if they change their minds by the time they are seventeen they can get out of the contract. Please, think about it and talk to Rose before answering but Astoria and I would like to introduce Rose as Scorpius’s fiancée at the party.
Sincerely, Draco Malfoy
Hermione looked at the letter in her hand in horror, she wanted to set it on fire but didn’t. Instead, she sat down on the chair near the table to looked at it again, betrothed…her daughter…to a Malfoy. It did sound odd but she had read a lot about pureblood traditions and learned that usually the betrothal should have been years before this. Draco was giving his son the chance to find someone he truly loved and Scorpius was sure that he found it. Then again just the summer before Rose had been head over heels for Teddy. Why wasn’t this more simple? Why was she actually considering this?
A/N: Hope you like it, sorry about the long wait. Please Review!!!!
