When Love is all You Have to Give
Chapter 1
What am I going to do? Hermione asked herself as she was making dinner for 2. It has been 10 years since Voldemort was killed by Harry Potter. Hermione was in her house with her 8 year old son, Matt, Making dinner for the 2 of them. Matt was in his room playing while Hermione was making spaghetti and meatballs.
Nate why did you leave me? I need you so much. Hermione thought to herself.
"Mummy, where is Daddy?" Matt asked while coming into the room.
Oh boy, not this question again! Hermione thought as she was talking to her son. "Daddy isn't coming home anymore. We talked about this, Matty, remember?" Hermione told her son in a soft soothing voice. "Now, go to the bathroom and wash your hands. I will have dinner on the table by the time you come back." Hermione challenged her son. He always liked a challenge just like his father.
"No you won't, Mummy! I'll beat you!" He ran to the bathroom laughing and as quickly as his legs could get, that was pretty fast considering.
Matt was small for his age, he had brown short hair just like his father use too. He looked just like his father in every way except for the eyes and how curly his hair could get if he grew it out, which Hermione wasn't likely to do for him.
When Hermione had the food on the table her little boy was running over to see if he had beaten her.
"No running in the house, matty, you should know better." Scolded Hermione.
"Sorry mummy. Did I beat you?!" He said excitedly.
"I don't know. What do you think?" Hermione laughed at the look her son was giving her. It was just like his father's face, a tear came sliding down her cheek.
"Why are you sad mummy? Why are you crying?" Matt had sat in his seat at the table while looking at his mum, confused.
Hermione sat down in her chair "Oh, how I miss your father so!"
After having dinner and laughing with her son, Hermione took her wand out and had the dishes washing themselves as she told her son to go to the bathroom to take a bath and get his jammies on.
"But mummy! I don't want to go to bed!" mat complained.
"Did I say you were going to bed? I just told you to get ready for bed not that you were going to bed." Hermione said laughing at how her son doesn't like to go to bed.
