"Mum, where the box with my clothes in?" Mattie Granger yelled to her mum. They were moving again for the 4th time that year.
"It may be a box in the kitchen, but I'm not sure about that, look in your sister's room," her mother shouted to her from her bedroom. Their apartment was lovely and cosy. It was big and was in the centre of London, Hermione loved London especially Diagon Alley so close.
It had been 16 years since she had seen anyone from Hogwarts. The only one she had kept in contact with was Ginny but had never had seen her over the time. She had changed over 15 years, she had now two daughters with different fathers but loved them both the same.
Casey's father, Derek, had died two years before in a plane crash. He had been a pilot and a muggle who Hermione had met on her way to America. He was English and had fallen in love with her the moment he saw. Mattie was one at the time but Derek had treated her like his own daughter.
A year later they had Cassidy and were a perfect family even though weren't married, but they never cared about that. He knew Hermione was a witch but he never cared, he loved anyway she was. Hermione decide to be a write, which she came successful, writing for muggle and wizard newspaper. She wrote reports of histories of famous wizards but when Derek suggested writing about the chosen one, Harry Potter, who he read about in the Daily Prophet, Hermione went off nearly in tear, Derek never found out why.
She never told Harry about Matilda, she was too scared how he would react. She knew he had to fight in the war, how could he look after a child. The night she left was the worst night of her life. Hermione and Harry had a huge fight with them saying thing they shouldn't. She had regretted that night.
The she had Mattie. Mattie was the perfect baby, she was beautiful, and she looked like both of them. Hermione decided to call her Matilda Lily Jane Granger. She didn't know if she to put her surname or his but decided to put hers down.
When Derek died Hermione didn't know what to do but she had to be strong from the girls, that's when they started moving places. Boston, LA, New York and London her home. She had missed London but she couldn't go back in case bumping into Harry. But now she was back after 15 years, it had changed and she knew it would. She loved it here.
Mattie on the other hand wasn't so keen on it, she loved it in New York, and she missed all friends. Mattie hated moving, losing her friends and having to make new one but that was what happened most of her friends. She walked into her little sister's room, which was smaller than hers but still was big.
"Hey Casey, is my clothes box in here?" Mattie asked her little sister. Casey, short for Cassidy, looked completely different to Mattie.
Casey had long blonde hair with big brown eye like her mother and sister. That was the recognition between them all, their eyes they all had he same eyes. Mattie had very dark brown hair that was even darker than her mother's brown flowing hair. Hermione's hair had changed from when she was young. From her bushing hair is was soft wavy hair, which went past her shoulders.
Mattie on the other hand had messy hair, which never went the way it was supposes to so in the end she left it like that. Mattie was never that clever unlike her sister. Cassidy was the perfect witch, everything she did was always right. Her old teachers loved her. Unlike her sister, Mattie wasn't that great but she was good at dwelling and self-defence. She always was getting in trouble but was not always her fault. Her mother sometimes didn't mid which always shocked Mattie. Her mother would be "just don't do it again" and that would be it. The doorbell went and went Hermione got it while Mattie was trying to find her clothes.
"This is so not fair! Why my stuff!" Mattie went into a huff.
"Why don't you just use magic? We don't go to any school?" Casey said not bothering to get off her bed to help Mattie.
" Yer we do, remember? We going to the School mum and her friends went to, Hogwarts. So for once in you life you're wrong because you can't do magic outside any bloody school in the world and Mum would kill me. I can't find my clothes" Mattie retorted annoyed while opening an other box to find her clothes.
Hermione at that time went to get the door. When she opened it she got the shock of her life. In the doorway was a tall man with flaming red hair grinning non-stop at Hermione. On his sides was a lady. On his right was a lady with the same colour hair to the man, which came down to her shoulder, and she was smiling at Hermione too.
"Ron, Ginny!" Hermione yelled in amazement. She hadn't seen them in 16 years but had stayed in contact with Ginny over owl post. Hermione nearly jumped on Ron to give him a hug. Ron hugged her back smiling even bigger than he was before.
"Missed me, Hermione" Ron said a tear in his eye while Hermione hugged Ginny.
"You found the place Ginny and brought the best surprise I could ever had" Hermione said, who now couldn't stop smiling.
"It wasn't hard and Ron was desperate to see you!" Ginny replied.
"Come in you two, it's still a bit messy but we only moved in yesterday" Hermione invited them into her living room which had a few boxes left in.
"Nice place 'mione" Ron said looking around the place.
"Thanks Ron" Hermione replied going to the kitchen and putting the kettle on.
"So where are these daughter I've heard hardly little about" Ron asked hoping to see Hermione's daughter.
"Oh yes of course they have heard a lot about you, They call you Uncle Ron and Auntie Ginny, if that's all right with you" Hermione asked worried they might object.
"That's lovely Hermione, thank you so much" Ginny smiled, her eyes glistening of the thought of Hermione thinking them of Family.
"Thank you, Matilda, Cassidy, can you come here please there some special people I want you to meet" Hermione yelled to Casey's room. The two came which annoyed face still on but changed when her saw the two people they had seen in picture but much older.
"Ron, Ginny I want you to me two very important people in my life, Mattie and Casey" Hermione introduced them.
"Hi, I'm Matilda but people call me Mattie" Mattie waved at them.
"I'm Casey" Casey introduced herself to the two.
"Wow!" Ron looked At Mattie in disbelief; she looked so like Harry to him. The way she spoke, her hair the way her eyes searched for something outside the room.
"You two are so beautiful," Ginny said looking at them both in amazement. Mattie and Casey looked at each other.
"I have to get going, but mum says you have to come around tomorrow. You can meet Luna and my daughter and son, Kailey and Jack. The rest of the family will be there and Harry…' he drifted off not knowing what to say.
"Ok, we will see you there" Hermione smile but still worried about seeing Harry. Ron apparated to his destination. The girls went back to the Casey's room to find Mattie's clothes, while Ginny and Hermione sat on the couch.
" Wow, Ginny I've missed so much, Ron looks great, I'm so happy for him and Luna" Hermione smiled.
"He's great dad and husband to Luna. Kailey is a year younger than Mattie but is in the same year as Mattie. She got moved up a year. Jack is a little troublemaker but sweet. You'll se everyone tomorrow. Are sure about seeing Harry? We can cancel with him is you want" Ginny asked worried.
"Gin, its fine, he's have to see me and the girls one day, lets just make it sooner than later. Is he doing all right, what's happening with him, I want to know everything?" Hermione asked Ginny.
"He's fine, he's defence against the darks teacher at Hogwarts, so you're right about meeting him, if you didn't, Mattie and Casey would. And he's engaged to Gabriella, we hate to death, she treats us like dirt. Harry doesn't see it, but thinks her of an angel. You'll meet her tomorrow. I would keep about Mattie being his daughter for now or she'll make all three of your live hell" Ginny said annoyed.
"He's getting married?" Hermione said shocked. Harry was getting married to this lady.
"Sorry, 'mione…. Does Mattie know who her dad is yet?" Ginny asked cautiously
"Not yet, but I'm going to have to tell her. But I need to tell Harry first, I'm so scared Ginny, will him accept her. I'm not letting him hurt her, that's why I need to know if he will accept her. If he doesn't want to know her as his daughter that's fine with me, I don't care. Me, Mattie and Casey don't need a man like him in our lives" Hermione finished
" You are a brilliant mother Hermione, never forget that. I have to go, I'll see tomorrow!" Ginny said smiling and with that she apparated.
"Harry if you hurt my daughters in anyway, I will cause so much pain on you" Hermione said out loud and walk to the muffled voices in the bedroom.
