Okay here is a love story between Hermione and Regulus Black, I came up with it after reading a "Reading the books" story about Hermione going back to read the books with Reg, Sirius, James m.m. and they became "close". This is after the second war. P.S. In my story Regulus became a Death Eater just after he finished Hogwarts NOT in his sixth year like in the book.

I have the world's best beta in Word's spellcheck!

Chapter One

Going Back

Hi, my name is Hermione Granger. You have heard of me I am sure I am the best friend of Mr Harry Potter "the boy who would not die" (direct quote from Harry) and Mr Ronald "Ron" Weasley and I helped destroy the Dark Lord Voldermort.

But this is not that story this is my story about how I meet the man of my dreams. And this is how it all started:

It was a year after the second war and I was called to the Headmistress office at Hogwarts…

Hermione was on her way to the headmistress of Hogwarts office to see Professor Dumbledore. It was her ex teacher Minerva McGonagall that had called on her (via her patronus) to tell her that Dumbledore needed her help with something. So now she was on her way to her office. When she got to the gargoyle outside she simply said that week's password that happened to be: TheBoyWhoLived and the gargoyle sprang aside permitting her to enter.

The headmistress office was a big, round room with a lot of paintings, hanging on the wall, of previous headmasters and headmistresses of Hogwarts. They were all chattering loudly but when Hermione stepped in the fell silent. At the desk sat Minerva McGonagall, a severe but nice woman.

"Hello Hermione. I'm happy you could come so soon"

"Yes, well of course." Hermione answered

This is where the painting of Albus Dumbledore, who was hanging just behind McGonagall's desk, started to talk.

"We need you to go back to the past."

"To do what exactly?" Hermione asked

"To see to it that Regulus Black never becomes a Death Eater." Minerva answered

"Why?" Hermione said

"We believe that it is important. And it can change the war in our favor." Dumbledore said

"Well then, how? I have read a lot on the subject and to send someone, me, so far back in time has never been done before." Hermione said

"We have been mixed with this time turner and now when you turn it, it goes back years and not hours. I have already turned it in on to 1980." Minerva said

"And we have mixed with the papers so you are a pure blood from the Rossi family from Italy, it's a famous family in Italy and at this time Paola and Filippo Rossi just moved to London near Diagon Ally. You will first go to them and use this charm on them: "Expiscor Prosapia" it will make them think you are there only child and you will "transfer" from Beauxbatons Academy of Magic." Dumbledore said

"The fantastic thing with the spell is that you will get all the memories and qualities you would if you were born in to the family. So you will etc. be able to talk French. But you will remember who you really are, who is your friends here and that you came back to save the future." Minerva said

"Okay, how do I do it?" Hermione said

"Put this on" Minerva said and held up a time turner that looked almost normal except the fact that it was a bit smaller and in silver instead of gold.

Hermione reached out and took it and then she put it on herself.

Suddenly she felt the floor under her vanish and she fell flat on the floor in what seemed to be a rich couples flat and sure enough two people, a man and a woman, came running in to the big and beautiful living room.

"What happened? Who are you?" The woman asked

"Are you the Rossi's?" Hermione said

"Yes, we are Filippoand Paola Rossi." The man said

"Good" Hermione said and turned on them and said Expiscor Prosapia

At this all of them collapsed as they got new memories and everything changed in the house Hermione started to pop up in pictures and her room was building up stairs. And Hermione's face changed. The eyes became green as her "dad's" eyes where and the hair became silky and smooth instead of the usual bushy hair. And then they all woke up again.

"Oh My God, Mom and Dad way are you on the floor?" Hermione said as she helped them up. For her it wasn't weird calling them mom and dad because in all her memories she just got they were mom and dad to her.

"We don't know" they told her.

"Why did you tell me to hurry here?" Hermione said

"Because when we moved here we told you that you could transfer to Hogwarts if you wanted instead of going to Beauxbatons and do you remember your answer?" Mom said

"Yes" Hermione said

"Well look what came in the mail box." Dad said

"It's my letter!" Hermione said

"And do you know where you might like to read it?" Mom said

"In your new room" Dad finished

Hermione squealed and ran upstairs and in to her new room. It was a beautiful room in green and black Hermione's favorite colors.

She opened the letter and read:

Dear Miss Rossi,

We would like to welcome Miss Hermione Rossi to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

We hope you will enjoy your time here and you will be sorted at the term-start feast.

Please visit the school with your parents so you can learn more about the school and learn your way around the building.

Sincerely,

Minerva McGonagall

Deputy Headmistress

Hermione then got out of her blue Beauxbatons school robes and put on her favorite green and black silk dress that she gotten as a move away present from her parents. And over that she put on a black satin cape.

"Are you coming Mione we are going to go and look on the grounds of Hogwarts. There will be some students there now because it is the Christmas holidays and some like to spend it there."

They appeared together to Hogsmeade and walked up to Hogwarts. There at the gate the where met by a Professor Dumbledore who seemed okay if not a bit tense.

They walked up to his office and after a while Dumbledore said to Hermione that she could discover the grounds while they talked some more. Hermione who knew the grounds walked around a bit and found herself down at the Quidditch field watching a seeker train alone with a snitch.

She walked on to the field her cloak bellowing behind her and up into the stands and then he noticed her. He landed and went up to her. There he took her hand and kissed it and presented himself.

"I am Regulus Black, but you my lady can call me Reg"
