..:: Explanations ::..

PB: My first Romione fic. Sad, huh? I've been meaning to do one for a while, but Along Came a Veela popped up first. So, here's one now.

Bob: That's a crappy explanation!

PB: So? Anyway, flames are welcome, as always. I use them to roast marshmallows ;D. And it's rated just in case, cuz I have no clue where this fic is going, except it'll end up Romione. And to make up for such a crappy explanation, here's a prologue.

..:: Prologue ::..

Eighteen years. She had been gone eighteen whole years. Just disappeared without a trace. And now she's back with a daughter. A daughter with hair as black as the night and eyes as green as emeralds. She back with a daughter, but not a father. And I think I know why.

"Harry? Harry, say something."

I never expected her to turn up one rainy night, dressed like a French lady, with a tall, skinny girl in tow. I never expected to see her again, not after what she did to us.

"Harry, I know you must hate me. But, can I please explain?"

"Hermione, you're eighteen years late for explanations." There. I finally forced the words out.

Ginny shoved her way past me, squealing. "Hermione! I can't believe you're back! Why did you leave? We – oh."

Ah. She's seen the girl now. That girl is starting to look very uncomfortable. Ginny's glancing from me to her and back again. Well. Hermione does have a lot to explain.

"Come on in."

PB, "Don't shoot! Don't throw, either. (ducks quickly in case of flying sharp objects) Okay, yes, I know I said this is a Romione fic, and it is! So, right now, you guys are probably all like, "WTF? Shouldn't she have showed up at Ron's door and not Harry's?" And yes, the girl does look like Harry's child. Gee, did I just make a point? That's for me to know and you to guess. So, obviously, 18 years later, Ginny and Harry are married with a number of kids. I'll name them in the next chapter. And from now on, I'll be writing in 3rd person. 1st person was just for the prologue. So, since I like making Draco a good guy, I'm bringing him into this story somehow. Oh yeah, Link suggested making him gay. What's your opinion on that?"

Joe, "AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Runs away screaming from fangirls brandishing steak knives.

PB, "I thought so. So, who should I put Draco with? ABSOLUTELY NOT Pansy or Luna. Suggest someone else, or should I make up an OC? There'll be quite a few in here....the Potter children, for one; Hermione's daughter, for another (who will have the last name Granger due to the fact that she doesn't know who her father is – heck, even I don't know; but I do have an idea); and, of course, Draco's kids. So, go review! My bunnies will be coming back from Jamaica in November, you know...."
