Hi! This was written years ago on a different website and decided to move it here. So if you recognize this story, this is why it sounds familiar. This is technically my first fan fiction so please bear with me. These chapters are also really short. Again please bear with me. Another thing, this is my first time publishing here, so I'm sorry for any mistakes that you may find. This now concludes my long paragraph on how I much I'm going to fail in the future. Please Enjoy.
"I think we should split up." Were the last words I heard of my relationship with Ron. He told me he needed more adventure in his life and went to America. I picked up the first picture he and I took after the war. The defeat of Voldemort was a new era to a new world. I smiled at the picture. It's a regular picture. It didn't move or talks like other magical pictures.
I took the picture of us out of its frame and threw it in the trashcan that I had beside me. I needed room for new memories. I'm not going to let what happen to us to get in my way. I looked up at my room. The wall was a simple blue. No fancy furniture. It was perfect in my eyes. I got up from my bed and walked to the window. I pulled the curtain back, and saw the blue sky. There weren't any clouds in it. I wish I can enjoy it, but I just can't. No Hermione, no more tears.
"Hermione, do you want any tea." I looked back to see my mom at the door way. We were about the same height by now. After the war I went to look for my parents. There were in Australia having a wonderful time taking pictures of kangaroos. "No thanks." I replied. She gave me a slight nod and left. I stood there another minute or two staring out the window. I have to get over him. I decided to go leave to Diagon Alley. I walked over to my desk were my purse is. I got my money out of my purse and put it in the pocket of my jeans.
I walked down stairs and looked at the wall. Pictures of me and my parents were hanged up. I remember the memories. "Mom, I'm going to Diagon Alley for a little bit." "Ok sweetie. Take care." I got out of the house and apperated to Diagon Alley. People were there having fun. Children running around and their parents scolding them not to. The same old Diagon Alley. I started walking down the sidewalk. I had no idea where I was going to. I just let my legs do the leading. I walked to Flourish and Blotts. Of course. The eleven year old bookworm was still inside me.
I walked in to the smell of new books. A smell most people don't like, but I do. I ran my index finger against the bindings of the books on the shelf. I stopped and pulled out a book that I thought was interesting. "Romeo and Juliet." I was surprised they had this book. I never read it, but I knew what it was about. Juliet fell in love with Romeo and Romeo fell in love with Juliet. They died because they didn't want to live without each other. Such a stupid book. I returned it to the shelf.
I looked up to see Ginny and Harry coming in. I looked around for a place to hide. What would they say if they saw me? Would they call me pathetic? I went upstairs and hid behind a shelf. I stayed there for thirty minutes. "Hermione your such a loser." I told myself hitting my head mentally. I sat down at one of the chairs. "I'm so stupid." I kept on cursing at myself for another ten minutes.
I finally stopped when I felt someone staring at me. I looked up to see no one. Then I looked down. A little boy no more than two stood there. He had messy bleach blonde hair with icy blue eyes. He had chubby little cheeks, but he wasn't fat. He was skinny. He was holding a plushy dinosaur while crying. "What's the matter sweetie?" I asked. He looked down at his feet. I felt heartbroken. Who would leave a cute little boy by himself? "Where's your mommy or daddy?" He shrugged. I wasn't going to leave him alone. "Why don't we go look around for your parents?" He lifted up his head. His sad face was now happy. This made me happy. "Come on." I took his hand and we started looking around.
We looked around for a while and we couldn't find him or her. I heard a growl coming from him. I smiled. He must be hungry. "Why don't we stop somewhere to eat? After that we can go look some more." He nodded. We went to this restaurant that had opened after the war. We went inside and waited in line to order. "May I take your order?" I ordered a hamburger and he ordered a kids meal. After the war more muggle foods were being served in restaurants. We waited for our number to be called. After we got our food we sat down. He got his box from the tray, opened the box, and took out a toy. It was a miniature plushy dinosaur. He started playing with it. I laughed. He was adorable. "What's your name sweetie?" I finally asked him. He still continued playing with his toy while eating. "Scorpius." He looked up to me. "What's your name?" "Hermione." He looked back at his dinosaur and started to sound it out. He got it right on his fifth try and continued to eat.
After we were done, we went outside. I was getting worried. What would happen if I couldn't find his parents? I couldn't just leave him here on the streets. I squeezed his hand a bit. I decided to go back to Flourish and Blotts. After we got there, I opened the door. I saw the whole ministry there. It was like a murder has happened. "He looks just like me. Why can't you understand that?" I looked over to the man. No that can't be. "Daddy!" Scorpius let go of my hand and started running over to him. Please don't be him. He turned around, and squatted to hug his son. No!
Like said these chapters are very short, so please bear with me on this. In the future chapters, I'm probably going to combine chapters so they can be longer. Also if there is any mistakes please tell me so I can change them. With that said, I hope you enjoyed what you read so far.
