Hermione 's POV

'' You really said that? He wouldn't….'' Ginny and I were sitting in her bedroom at her house. Maybe it hadn't been such a good idea to come back now. Maybe it had been better to wait a bit. Wait 'till everything was fine again.

'' He did. I don't know Ginny. The first thing I think is Run. Run away and never come back. But deep in my heart I know I can't do that. I love him so much Gin.'' I was really ashamed of myself. How for god's sake could I think of going away? They were my life. When I was walking I had made it my mission to come back to them. And now I wanted to go back from one of the best things that had ever happened to me. Fred…. He had been the miracle I needed so badly all those years ago. I felt a hand on my shoulder and looked back to her face. Ginny always knew what to do. She always knew how to pep me up. And this was exactly what I had needed when I was little. Yes, books were fun but it missed that human touch. I had really missed that.

'' I've missed you,'' I said tearing up a bit and took her in a hug. It was the only way that she couldn't see my face. But when I would be alone I was going to cry because I really needed a good cry right now.

'' I missed you too. We all missed you. '' Ginny said while trying to calm her down the crying had started before I wanted. But crying always happens on a time when you don't want to.

'' How am I going to do this. I can't do as if nothing happened. It did happen and it changed me. It changed my life forever. ''

Fred's POV

''Daddy… Daddy! '' I woke up from a shrill voice. To be exact the voice of my daughter. Why she did this well when she would wake up – and it doesn't matter if it is in the middle of the night- she comes out of bed walks towards my room and starts jumping on my bed and screaming 'Daddy'. The nights became too short most of the times. And when she would come to me in the middle of the night she would fall asleep in my bed because she refused to go back to her room. I slowly rubbed my eyes and started my -not so secret- sneak attack. I sat up a little and took her in my arms and she fell on my chest. Together lying down and I kissed her forehead.

'' What's the matter sweetie. '' she squirmed a little in my arms but I didn't let go. I looked over her shoulder and saw the clock 5 AM. Too early.

'' We meet her. Are we... Are we... Please, we meet her. I want see her I want see now. '' she said but she was pouting at the end. For god's sake, she was too adorable for her age. She had me wrapped around her little finger and she knew it. her bushy red hair was all around us. Some hair often made it towards his mouth. By now she perfectly well knew that she could make it any color she wanted but she preferred the red/orange kind of color he himself had. But when she was with Teddy it sometimes looked like they were competing who was the best while Teddy was a bit older than her.

'' We are. '' I said to her with a big smile on my face. Just last night I told her about her mother. The whole story. Not the story our family had made up about her disappearance. I told her she had a little sister who she would probably meet soon. We didn't yet know when Charlie came home. He and his girlfriend would take her back to her real home.

''Is she nice? Will she like me? She live with us? Share room with sister? What she look like? Daddy? Daddy wake up!'' When you were a parent and had to take care of her and work in the joke shop downstairs then your night sleep was precious to you. I hadn't had much sleep every night since she knew how to climb out of her bed but then she god a bed without bars and she just walked out of it no matter the time or what was going to happen that day.

''Let daddy sleep sweetie daddy's tired.'' A big yawn came after that and my eyes closed.

''I'm excited watch telly dad?'' she was trying to wriggle out of my grip but to no avail.

''No you stay here and we try to get some more sleep and then when we wake up again and eat breakfast I will answer your questions. Alright?'' but before he could finish his sentence she had already been asleep. So he shifted a little so she was lying beside him and closed his eyes once more.

That morning it looked like the questions didn't end. After every question, he answered there was another ready to be fired at him. With some questions, it was like she was picturing but some could have been better answered by Hermione herself. A few owls, some letters, and some breakfast later she was dancing through the house by the time breakfast was over. It was just a plain Friday morning but he still had to work that afternoon. So he watched some telly with her and had a tea party with her and her stuffed toys until 12 o'clock came and Molly came to take her to the Burrow.

''So Fred are you excited?'' George asked when I walked into the store. There was no one but George so there would be little to help him to not think about tonight.

''More than I thought. How would you feel if you would meet your daughter today?'' Oh, shit ruined the surprise.

''Charlie is coming? You didn't tell me!'' ugh and of course, George had to play the angry one.

''I just found out this morning. He wants us all to meet his new girlfriend and for once he took the weekend off so they take Lyra with them. It's weird really she won't be a baby she will be what how old? 2? 3? ''

''1 years and 5 months if I'm right and I usually am.'' I was getting a bit annoyed but that could be because of my lack of sleep.

''Have you been keeping track of the months? Really George?''

''Of course, I have it's my niece we are talking about not just some strangers kid when I heard the story I immediately took a calendar and looked how old she was. '' I gave up and just went to the back room and started making some potions.

The night came quicker than I thought It would. There was this feeling inside me that there was someone standing before me who was ripping out my heart. I was so afraid I was thinking of everything that could go wrong. The words of Hermione were still going through my mind when I was walking to the front door of the burrow with George. I could hear laughter and people talking I could hear the voice of Amy and of mom. Of Hermione and of Bill but that was it. so I quietly opened the door and saw nobody looking our way I saw mum and Amy standing in the kitchen so I walked towards her and picked her up. She was squealing of joy and I kissed her little face everywhere I could reach.

''Daddy put down.'' I didn't listen and just kissed her cheeks a little more.

''Fred don't do that in the kitchen go to the living room.'' I obeyed her and put Amy on my shoulders and together we walked towards the living room. She squealing of joy while my face got more serious with every step I took. When I saw Hermione she turned around with a smile on her face. Oh how I wish to see that smile every day for the rest of my life. I walked towards her and I see George smirk from the corner in my eye.

''Hey I think you two met already?'' I pointed up so Hermione knew who I was talking about.

''Yeah but she doesn't…'' with a smirk on my face I take her of my shoulders.

''Mom Hermione, Amy and I will be upstairs.'' I scream towards the kitchen. I don't hear her answer but I just walk upstairs with Amy and Hermione follows us. I walk with them towards my old room. Oh how I miss that room sometimes. On the way I lift Amy up sometimes and when we are finally there I set her down on my old bed and wait for Hermione to come in and sit on her other side.

''Why she coming daddy?'' Amy asks while Hermione walks into the room and closes the door.

''Well she has a confession to make and you have to be there when she tells us.'' I tell her with a serious expression but I don't think she really understands. Hermione sits down on the other side of her and looks at me.

''Well this women here next to you is Hermione Granger and I hope soon to be Weasley.'' I say looking hopeful at Hermione.

''She marry Charlie?'' she says with the most serious look she can give me.

''No once upon a time before I got sick Hermione Granger was my girlfriend. I asked her to marry me and you were born out of that. Remember I told you you would meet your mother. Well this woman sitting next to you, Hermione Granger is your mother. Remember I told you she had been taken away from me that's her. All those questions you asked me they were about that women next to you.'' I was looking from Amy to Hermione trying to let her understand what was going on.

''She my mother? She saved you and world with uncle Harry and uncle Ron?''

''Yes she is and she is the most beautiful women alive. After you of course Amy.'' I said with a smirk on my face.

''But where sister?'' she asked Hermione she was pouting because she had wanted to meet her sister since I told her she was so excited.

''She will come later with uncle Charlie.'' I told her quickly.

''Shall I leave you two lady's alone to talk a little?'' I asked at Amy because I knew Hermione would do whatever Amy wanted to do.

''Daddy I pee.'' She said looking at me.

''Of course sweetie but don't you want to talk with your mother afterwards?'' she didn't say anything so I let her walk out of the room and quickly looked at Hermione whom I gave a quick hug.

''Don't worry she will warm up to you she quickly ashamed towards people she hasn't met before. Maybe tonight she will want to talk to you.'' I quickly walked out of the room and followed Amy towards the bathroom where I saw her crying on the floor when I opened the door.

So I promised a chapter and here it is.

To be fair I had to edit some of the things that Amy said because I forgot a (almost) 3 year old couldn't talk as good as good as an older person.

I hope you liked this chapter and please leave a comment.
