Hermione P.O.V

Sunday - Just before Dinner at the Burrow

I stared at my reflection in the mirror, giving myself a pep talk, I then proceeded to pace in front of the mirror, calming myself and taking deep breaths.

I stopped and looked at myself 'I can do this, I can, of course... I bloody can't, this is going to be the worst dinner.'

Just as I was about to start another round of arguing with myself, I heard a knock on the door and froze, I heard another knock and then Katie's voice "I know this is scary, but think about how you felt after the session, you'll feel so much better and..."

She didn't finish her sentence because I had opened the door and I took a deep breath before saying "Let's get this over with." She looked at me for a second and then nodded. I looked at her oddly, she looked like she wanted to reconsider this 'meeting'.

I shook my head, before heading downstairs and I knew why she wanted to reconsider. I could tell I'd just walked into the end of an argument judging by Harry's and Ginny's red faces. I sighed before wiping my sweaty hand on my dress.

I watched as Molly entered with dishes magically floating in front of her and she lowered her wand until they reached the table and then ushered everybody to the table.

I sighed and looked at Katie, it was now or never "Before we start I just wanted to tell you all that I've started therapy, I talked to Katie and she advised me to tell you because it will help me, please just listen before commenting" I took a deep breath before speaking "That day I told you that I was going shopping with Angelina, I was at the Wizagemont at the trial for Graham Monatgue because...because he attempted to rape me." I looked at the looks of anger and sadness on the faces of my family, my head turned towards Malfoy and his fists were clenched, I stared in confusion what was going on with everybody. I felt Katie nudge me and I looked at her and she smiled at me encouragingly and I took in a deep breath before speaking again, knowing that they were in shock so wouldn't interrupt "I also can't remember the last year of school and the only thing I can remember from the war is when... When... Tonks..." I couldn't finish the sentence and Harry stood up and opened his mouth to speak as I watched Ginny press her mouth into a tight line, but before he could speak he was cut of by a wail, I excused myself and made my way to Bill's old room where the children were sleeping, I made my way to Teddy's crib and smiled as he looked at me wonderingly before saying his first word, 1 week before his first birthday "Mama" A smile stretched my face and I picked him up about to ask him to say it again, when I heard raised voices from downstairs and the loudest one was Harry's "We have to tell her" I heard arguing, but I have no doubt in my mind that the she, they are talking about is me. I put a charm on myself so they wouldn't hear me come down the stairs. I stood outside and saw that he was arguing with not only his girlfriend but Malfoy. Teddy hiccuped and all heads turn to me, I stared at them and they could probably feel the annoyance emanating of me in waves. "Who is this she, you were talking about?" I asked gritting my teeth trying to keep my cool in front of Teddy. I watched as they bowed their heads and I spoke determinedly "You do not get to decide what is best for me."

Harry looked at the others before speaking "I'm sorry Mione I just can't take this anymore, the reason you can't remember anything because Greyback attacked you after Tonks was killed, he made you forget everything, including you being in a serious relationship with Draco, this whole Marriage Law was a charade to see if you would remember anything but you didn't and I'm sorry I have to tell you this but you're parents are gone." He finished and I guessed someone had taken Teddy away as I stumbled back towards the wall my mind not processing the information he had just said. I watched as Malfoy pull Harry back and shout something that sounded like "that's enough!"

Tears streamed down my face, a year, it had been a year since the war and they were just telling me now.

Teddy calling Malfoy "Dada" just made what Harry told me concrete.

I apparated on the spot.

Hey guys, I know most of you want a long story but I'm going to wrap this story up in the next chapter or I may add in an epilogue, because I want to write other stories but if I have time I may remove the epilogue(If I do one) and once in a while add a chapter. But probably not. Anyway thanks for reading, I hope you liked the twist.
