Chapter 4: Ignorance Truly is Bliss

William's POV

"Katherine! What is the matter with you?" I yanked her out of her seat, not giving a shit about who was watching. I pulled her into a corner of the room. "Why did you say that to Kristin? Why are you so cruel to her?"

"She ruined what we had, William," she said crossing her arms.

"She didn't ruin anything, she's innocent in all of this. I ruined what we had. I cheated on you!" I could hear it going quiet around me. Katherine glared at me. "You know what happened. You are the only mother she's ever known."

"I am not her mother, she is not my daughter. She is a witch, William. She deserves to know the truth," her voice grew quiet and my expression softened.

"Maybe you're right," I sighed.

"What's going on?" Katrina joined us.

"Nothing," Katherine and I said at the same time.

"That is not going to work anymore," Katrina said crossly. "What. Is. Going. On?"

"Your mother said I should tell Kristin the truth," I said.

"The truth about what?"

"The truth about your sister and me…"

Kristin's POV

I sat outside on the steps, crying into my dress, leaving tearstains. I was glad my friends hadn't found me; I really wanted to be alone right now. My father did however find me. He sat next to me and didn't say anything for a while. I just sat there, crying. He finally spoke.

"Sweetheart…" he started. I looked up at him, waiting for him to talk again. When he didn't, I decided to say something.

"Dad…why does she hate me? Why does she talk to me like that?"

"Because of something I did years ago," he said looking at me.

"What do you mean?"

"Katherine…isn't your mother," Dad said looking away.

"Yeah I got that," I scoffed.

"No, I mean…she really isn't your biological mother." I didn't say anything, waiting for him to continue. "When we met, we weren't really in love. We…messed around and that resulted in getting her pregnant." He took a deep breath. "The right thing to do was get married so we would support each other and the child. The child of course was Katrina. We were actually happy after she was born…she brought us closer. But as Katrina got older, we started to fight more. So… I left for a bit, and I met your mother." I could feel my eyes grow wide. "Your mother…was a witch."

"What? So then I'm a half-blood? Wait…what do you mean 'was'?"

"I didn't know she was a witch when we met, but we had an affair for several months and when I realized I was falling in love with her, I decided I wanted to leave Katherine, but I didn't want to leave Katrina. I had no idea what to do. I chose Katrina over your mother…" he paused to wipe his eyes. I intertwined my fingers with his, giving comfort. "She never told me she was pregnant. I didn't find out about you until…" he trailed off.

"Until what, Dad?"

"Until you were brought to me by someone from the ministry, telling me that you were my daughter, your mother was a witch, and that she had died in childbirth." Tears were streaming down his face now.

I didn't say anything for a while, taking it all in. Finally, I said something.

"Does Katrina know?" He shook his head.

"She thinks you were adopted. Well, now she doesn't. I had to tell her everything before I came out here. She's pretty upset for not knowing the truth."

"What was her name?" I whispered, some part of me afraid to know.

"Daphne Scott," he said. He shifted to pull his wallet out of his suit pocket. He opened it and pulled out a small photo. "This is her, I never went anywhere without her, but I want you to have it." He handed me the small photo of my mother. She had a kind face, she was beautiful with blue eyes and curly brown hair.

I looked up and smiled at my dad who returned it. "Thanks, Dad." I hugged him. "I do have one more question, though… How come you didn't tell me all of this before?"

He took a deep breath. "You were born in really tough times and it was dangerous, I didn't tell you about the wizarding world because I was trying to keep you safe. That's also why I moved us to New York after Katherine and I divorced. I didn't want any trouble from anyone. I was scared when you got your letter, but I realized that I couldn't keep you away forever. So I decided to let you go to Hogwarts, that's also why I moved back to England, so I could be closer to you."

I smiled at him and he stood up. He put out his hand and pulled me up. I hugged him tight and we stood there for a while.

Ginny's POV

"Have you seen Kristin?" Hermione asked coming towards Harry and I dancing.

"No, why?" I said.

"Well, I haven't seen her since she went to go talk to her mum…that was a quite a bit ago," she said with a slight worried look.

"I'm sure she's fine, 'Mione," Harry said. "Come dance."

Hermione sighed. "I know you're right," she left to go find Ron. I turned back to smile at Harry and he returned it with a crooked smirk.

"What are you thinking?" I laughed at his expression.

"Just how beautiful you are," he said.

"Oh, you're such a romantic," I rested my head on his chest. "And sweet." He kissed the top of my head as we continued to dance. I saw Ron and Hermione begin to dance next to us. Ron pulled her close then pushed her out and spun her around, Hermione having a grin on her face the whole time. Ron could dance…who knew? Hermione pulled him close and kissed him.

Cedric's POV

I closed the door behind me to our hotel room and flopped on the bed. I was so tired and I decided to head back upstairs. I couldn't find Kristin anywhere so I figured she had post wedding stuff to do with her family. I took off my suit, grabbed clothes to change into and headed to the shower. The water felt so good, I really was tired, it had been was such a long day. I shut off the water and changed into my clothes, then toweled my hair. I came out of the washroom and found Kristen sitting on my bed.

"Oh, hey," I smiled and she rubbed her eyes. "Where did you go? I couldn't find you anywhere?" I stopped. "Are you okay?" I pulled up a chair and sat in front of her.

She nodded. "Yeah, I'm alright. Just found out some very emotional and shocking stuff tonight… stuff that I'm not quite sure I wanted to know." I didn't say anything, waiting for her to compose and decide if she wanted to talk about it or not. She took a deep breath and told me everything. I sat back, eyebrows raised. She nodded, acknowledging my shock.

"Wow, well how do you feel?" I knew it was probably a stupid question, but I wanted her to feel comfortable with telling me anything.

"I'm not sure. I think I'm still in shock and just soaking it all in. A part of my feels like my whole life I've been lied to, but I know it was for my protection. But the other part of me finally makes sense, it answers a lot of questions."

I moved to the bed to sit next to her. I put my arm around her and hugged her tight. She hugged me back, burying her head in my chest. I pulled her back so we were lying on the bed and we just lay there, holding each other. After a little bit, she started breathing heavily and I soon fell asleep as well.
