The second part is here :DD I said I'll make it tonight


Joy does not simply happen to us. We have to choose joy and keep choosing it every day

- Henri Nouwen

Ron jumped out in front of them. They didn't saw him and it was clear that he heard everything.

''How could you?'' he screamed

Hermione's POV

We didn't expected him. I just admitted to Harry that I was involved with Bella and Ron just came out of nowhere. And I really don't want to listen to him and his stupid things.

''Ron, '' I started but never finished. Who would've thought?

''Are you insane? You got involved with a murderer! What did she do to you? Did she tortured you until you gone mad? I know you love me and that you would never leave me for that, that...'' How dare him? I'll kill him

''Who the hell you think you are? You, you are the most arrogant person I have ever met. I never loved you. I care for you like I care about Neville or Ginny. I care because you are my friend. But I have told you that there will never be anything between us because I am not in love with you. And I will never be!'' I screamed at him. This feels nice, releasing anger

''Sweet Merlin! She really bewitched you.''

''Nobody bewitched me! You ignorant brat! I fell in love since when that is a crime? I love her, don't you get it? I love her, ALL of her, good and bad because it makes her complete. She doesn't need to because I will willingly do everything she wants.'' I said and I would. Everything she needs me to do I will. Ron is stunned.

''Why on Earth do you love her? She will never be good to you like I would be. I would do anything for you. And you fell in love with insane woman who killed and tortured Merlin knows how many people?'' Ginny, George, Bill, Percy and Fleur came out to see what is all wreckage about.

''You want to know Ronald? You really want to know?'' I screamed. I really wanted to hit him, Harry hold me back.

''Yes I do. I want to know why you choose that over me?''

''Because she is the love of my life. Because all those nights we were on the run, I ran to her. Every night, our shelter was forest and I ran away every night from that forest, I ran to her. She was my shelter all that time. Her arms are my sanctuary, her voice my lullaby, her lips sweet devotion and her words silent prayers. That is why I love her. I see her and you can't. I don't care if get it or not because you will never change the fact that she is so much more to me than you will ever be.'' I finished. All people looked at us. They still don't know who we are talking about because they came too late to hear a name. They are on good distance from us but I am walking towards them. I want to go inside. I decided to go around the house and not through it. And then something grabs my arm and turns me around. Ron. He pushes me on the ground.

''You filthy little...'' he has his wand drawn at me. I can hear Harry, Ginny screaming and running towards us, but they are too far to get on time if he decide to kill me. And then I hear that voice that sends chills down my spine says:

''Expelliarmus!'' flash hits Ron's hand and his wand flew up into air.

Meanwhile on Hogwarts grounds

Minerva McGonagall hated mornings when she was young. Now she is just accustomed to it, but tonight she slept only few hours. Nerves did their job keeping her awake. It was 8 o'clock in the morning and she arrived in her office. Others will soon come.

''Nervous Minerva?'' asked panting behind her

'' Yes Albus I am. This must go as planned. If not she will end up in Azkaban. Or she will be forced to run and hide forever.'' Minerva said.

''I'm sure it will all go as planned Minerva. I'm sure Kingsley will understand.''

''If he won't, I'll lock him up in the dungeon.'' Albus laughed at that

Tonks and Andromeda came few minutes later with some papers they collected back home. 20 minutes later Arthur Weasley came in.

''Minerva you said you need...Tonks, Andromeda you are here.''

''Yeah we are here.'' Tonks said

''What is going on?'' asked confused Arthur

''I don't know either. Would you like to tell us now?'' asked Andromeda

''We are saving somebody.'' said Minerva

''People tend to change themselves because of something or somebody. They change because of love because on the end love does conquers all. I beg you to have this on your minds today. People are cursed sometimes and then they are shown a way out of that curse. They see that way when they understand what is love.'' said Albus

Minister of magic came into the office. They were all pleased to see Kingsley.

''Good morning everybody.'' greeted Kingsley

''Good morning Shacklebolt'' said Arthur, Tonks and Andromeda nodded.

''Now, please all take a seat. Albus and I want you to listen to us. And Andromeda we want you to take first word by telling us what was your childhood like for you and Bellatrix.'' Minerva said

Bella's POV

Minerva went to her office. She said that today she and Albus will put their plan into the action. She will tell me when I have to come up. I hate waiting. After about half an hour Dobby comes telling me to go to the back room of Minerva's office. When I came up I could hear their voices.

''Well Minerva it is very sad story about her life and her sacrifice for her sister. And I do understand that she fell in love during the war. I am very sorry but please do tell me why are you talking about it? Is the person she fell in love important person or what?'' asked Kingsley

''Well, Andromeda and Tonks are here to testify. Arthur is here to hear a true story about Bellatrix. And you are here for only one question. If Bella would be alive now would you gave her free card out of Azkaban? Would you set a woman who was cursed by her family, but still helped us when she finally got courage to, would you set her free?'' Minerva asked

I wonder what he will say. Oh please let it be yes. If there is any justice on this world please set me free. I just want to live in peace with the love of my life.

''Minerva, she died. You can't change that.'' said Kingsley

''Please answer to me, Kingsley. You are wise person, you know there is a reason why I'm asking you this.'' said Minerva

'' She changed you say? Then answer me why did she torture Hermione?'' he asked

I knew something like this would come up. What will Minerva do...

''Hermione asked her to.'' Minerva calmly said.

''What?'' said Andromeda and Arthur at the same time.

''Why would she do that?'' Arthur asked

''Because Hermione knew Voldemort asked Bellatrix to capture and torture her or Ronald. She said to her to take her and torture her, but not to go full strenght on her. And she didn't. Not even half of strenght. And she made sure they all get away and she was punished by Voldemort because of it. Snape told us that.'' Minerva answered

''But, Minerva why would Hermione say that to Bellatrix? And how? She was on run with Ron and Harry.'' said Arthur

''She said that because she knew Bellatrix would never hurt her and that she will protect her, Ron and Harry. And at the same moment she was making sure Bellatrix fulfilled her missions given by Voldemort.''

''And she did that because she loved Bellatrix.'' said Kingsley.

''Yes. They were together for almost two years. After the Ministry they got involved.'' Minerva stated

''The ring I saw on Hermione's finger was given to her by Bellatrix?'' asked Kingsley

Why is he asking this, can't he guess...ohh I see. Well Kingsley you are a lot smarter than I gave you credit.

''Yes. Bellatrix gave her that ring. Why?'' asked Minerva.

''Well because the ring seemed very familiar, but I just couldn't put it in where. Now I know. It is the ring of a Black family. I should have guessed. White gold ring with black edge. I presume there is engraved Coat of arms on inner side of the ring. Black coat of arms of course. It is passed on in pureblooded family's for centuries. I have mine too. The Ring of a family is what is called and it includes two identical, charmed rings. The oldest child gets it and is supposed to give her or his wife/husband. I see that Bellatrix saved her ring for her true love.'' said Kingsley

''I didn't know that.'' admitted Minerva

''Yes well tradition is to give it to your love and in arranged marriages love and spouse sometimes don't go together.'' said Kingsley

''I would.'' said Arthur

''Excuse me?'' asked Minerva

''I would set her free. She helped us and through life she didn't have that much choice to choose what she wanted. She saved our kids. And if what you say is true she didn't killed nor Dobby nor Fred. And Hermione really isn't a person who takes love easily. I trust her judgement.'' said Arthur.

''Well you are quite right Arthur. I would set her free.'' said Kingsley

'' You give me your word?'' asked Minerva

''Yes I gave you your word Minerva. And now where is she?'' asked Kingsley

''Right here.'' And the doors were open. I was exposed. Andromeda stood and ran to me holding me close. I haven't seen her in years. Ohh I missed her soo much.

''You are alive. You are here.''

''Yes Dromeda, I'm here and I'm not leaving.'' I said. I don't have any intention to let them go.

''Well I am glad to tell you Bellatrix, that we are very thank full you helped us in binging Voldemort down. At Monday I will tell this to my government and we will make official statement. I gave you my word you are free woman from this day on.'' Kingsley said

''Well Bellatrix, thank you for saving my son. And Harry and Hermione of course. Well, now we can all go back for lunch. It is Ginny's birthday so we need to celebrate. Bellatrix, Kingsley you are coming to. I'm sure you want to see Hermione. Right Bellatrix?''

''Yes, Arthur. I do want to see her very much.'' I smiled. Hermione I will see you soon.

''Arthur, I don't think I should stay though. They don't like me and because of good reasons. I should just see Hermione and then get back.'' I added

''Well we shall see when we get there.''

We apparete in front of Weasleys only to hear screaming coming from back side. We ran around the house. And then I see it. Ronald with his wand pointing at my Hermione. Harry and Fleur runing towards them, Ginny close behind and others were just too shocked to move.

Before I know it my wand is in my hands and I yell :

''Expelliarmus! '' and the boy's wand fly up in the sky.
