Somebody To Love!  Chapter 1- The Truth and The Ordeal

 It was the day before Hermione was going back to Hogwarts, and it was a gray stormy day as usual. Hermione was up in her room admiring her new style that she worked on all summer long. It was her sixth year at Hogwarts and every inch of her had changed; her light brown hair was now straightened with blonde highlights. And her curves were in all the right places and she was toned because she had been exercising all summer along with her studying. Hermione was starting to pack her new books in her trunk when she heard her mother calling.

Hermione's POV-   

"Hermione, dear please come down here." my mother said it had sounded like she had been crying (she probably was because my father hadn't come home in a couple of days).  I stood at the foot of the stairs just looking at my poor mother, with her sad brown/hazel eyes. That's when she started to talk. "Hermione, dear come. Sit down." with that I sat down. "Um…mother are you all right?" I asked with a concerned voice. "Oh yes fine…I'm fine dear, I just need to tell you something I've been wanting to tell you for a while."

 When she said that I really started to get worried. "Wh-What do you need to tell me." I was starting to stutter.

"Honey…um…you might find to hard to believe, but your not muggleborn you're a pureblood."  My face just went really pale and I felt faint. "WHAT!! You're just now telling me that I'm adopted!" I was screaming at the top of my lungs. "Hermione, I-I was going to tell you sooner, but…" she trailed off tears forming in her eyes. "Who were they…my real parents?" Hot tears were running down my cheeks.

"Well I've known your mother ever since we were children, and then I met her husband after she left Hogwarts." She smiled a little weak smile then she finished. "Their names were Jason and Alexandria Diado, they died when you were only 3 years old." I was so mad with my mother for not telling me that I was adopted after all these years. "I only have one question left, how and why did they die?" you could tell my mother didn't want to tell me what happened. "Well it was when Voldemort was really powerful…he killed your father first and…" I interrupted her when she said that. "Why did he kill him first?" I asked.

"Well you see um…your father was a Slytherin and your mother was a Gryffindor. And your when your father wouldn't become a death eater Voldemort became mad and then he went after them." I felt as though I was going to be sick. I then started thinking 'My father was a Slytherin that can't be right' I started going up that stairs when I heard my mother's voice again. " Hermione in your closet there are some of your mother's things and a wizard photo album." I nodded my head and started back up the stairs when she spoke again.

" Oh and Hermione about your father he got fired a couple days ago at his job…" I didn't even let her finish I ran upstairs I didn't even know who they or I was anymore. I went in my room and I must've fallen asleep because I awoke with yelling, screaming and then crying. I decided to go downstairs to see what all the commotion was about, and to get something to eat because I hadn't ate all day. I was at the foot of the stairs when I heard my father's voice.

"HERMIONE GET BACK UPSTAIRS NO ONE TOLD YOU TO COME DOWN HERE!" he was screaming at the top of his lungs. "I was going to get something to eat" I was all little frightened, but you could see my fear in my face. "I don't like your attitude!" he said. He then started forward; I tried to run but I wasn't fast enough for him. He grabbed me by the hair and I fell on my back really hard then after that I blacked out.

Mrs. Granger's POV-

I was starting to wonder if Hermione was all right because I did tell her she was adopted and that might have shocked her a lot. I then got up from the sofa when I saw my husband come through the door; he looked like he had one to many drinks or something. "Honey where were you it's 10:30 at night I was getting so worried." I tried to hug him, but he just shoved me away. "Honey are you okay?" I was getting scared.

"YES! I'M FINE WOULD YOU JUST GO DO SOMETHING USEFUL!" he yelled. I knew this wasn't my husband speaking he never talked like that to me. "Dear I know that you're taking this hard being fired from work and all..." That's when he blew; he got up took me by the throat and slap me very hard. "YOU DON'T KNOW HOW I FEEL" he spat. I was crying so hard I could stop. "SHUT UP YOUR CRYING!" I couldn't believe my eyes my husband had turned into a vicious man. "YOU ARE DRUNK YOU NEVER ACT LIKE THIS BEFORE!" I was now screaming all the while I was shaking. He then grabbed me by my arm and threw me in the closet and locked it.

 "HELP! GET ME OUT OF HERE!" but I knew it was no use of calling for help; my husband losing his job was the last straw for him. After a couple of minutes I heard my husband yelling at Hermione telling her to go back upstairs. When she replied I knew he had gone after her because then I heard Hermione scream and I heard no more. All the while I was trying to get out I managed to pick the lock with my one of my bobby pins in my hair. I ran to Hermione stroking her golden brown hair. " Are YOU insane!" I screamed.

I can tell he sobered up because he just stood there awe stricken not knowing what he just did. "HOW COULD YOU HIT HER?" I was crying hysterically. Hermione was so badly beat up I picked her up and took her to the bathroom and washed her up as best she could. All the while my husband was sitting there saying " I didn't mean it I-I'm so so sorry." He was almost whispering this to Hermione and me. I came back down after I got Hermione in her pajamas seeing my husband sitting there with tears rolling down his face. "Honey when Hermione leaves for Hogwarts I'm going to my mother's for a while." The look on his face went pale "No you can't just leave me hear by myself." he said pleadingly. I told him I was sorry, and I went to bed thinking about what would happen to him. And then I feel asleep.
