Prologue:
One for my baby.
"Mum! Have you seen my wand?"
Danielle Winters voice rang out through their house in london. Her
mother, Katie Winters, poked her head into her daughter's bedroom.
"Come on D! You can't have lost it... you're leaving for
Hogwarts tomorrow!"
"I know, mum... Ugh, guess I better
unpack my whole trunk and find it..." she whined knowing her mum
would probably do it for her.
"Guess you better..." Katie
smirked at her thirteen year old daughter as her jaws dropped.
"But mum! I'm supposed to write to Cho later... she's started
seeing this Gorgeous hunk... Cedric Diggory. Do you know him?"
"Honestly D. I thought you'd have gotten some sense in you now.
I'm hardly out of the house, and I don't go into the wizarding
world unless I'm with you... how will I know a Diggory..." she
paused to think, 'Diggory why did that name sound so damn
familier?', "unless..."
"Unless what mum?" Danielle's
face was filled with interest as she struggled to open her trunk.
Katie grinned at her daughter, and took out her wand, muttering
alohamora before starting to help her go through her trunk.
"Unless his father... is Amos Diggory..."
Danielle sat on the
edge of her bed, swinging her legs "Yeah, Cho said so... what about
him?"
"We used to date... a week, didn't exactly come to a
good end..." Katie scrunched up her nose as a smile danced across
her daughter's face.
"You dated Amos Diggory?! I heard he's
just as cute as Ced! Ahhh, you lucky bitc- er... never mind."
"D... I have nothing against you swearing... I, as much as I hate
to admit it, swore a lot when I was young... and it doesn't really
matter if I dated Amos or not... he wasn't the one I truly cared
for..."
"Dad was.... Wasn't he mum? When are you going to
tell me who dad really is? I haven't seen him since... forever, and
honestly you don't expect me to remember someone when I was two do
you? DO you?"
"When the time comes D... please" Katie
focused her gaze on her daughter's trunk. She wasn't ready to
talk about her... husband... no she couldn't call him that, they
never got married. Her fiancé... no, especially since his head
is in pictures stating as the 'escaped murder'.
"Mum!
Please, I'm thirteen... Fourteen this December, you can't keep it
away from me mum!"
Katie picked up Danielle's wand from the
bottom of her trunk before placing everything back, "I can, and I
will... it's all for your own good..." She made her way out of
the room but her daughter dragged her back.
"Mum! Please... I
can't grow up not even knowing my fathers name... please, mum..."
a small tear trickled down Danielle's face, and Katie sighed.
"I suppose... but... don't freak out, I just wanted the best for
you... you probably wouldn't want to tell your friends anyways..."
Wrapping her arms around her daughter and pulling her into a hug,
Katie lead them to the bed before launching her story.
"It
all began in my sixth year I suppose... I was always the loner in
Ravenclaw, books, studies, nothing more. I wasn't even made
prefect, though deep down that was what I always wanted..."

Chapter one, will start in Katie's POV...)
