Here's the next chapter. I hope you enjoy it. Please read and review love Hermione xxx

After class Lily went upstairs to her rooms and reread the letter from Petunia again. She remembered Gideon and Fabian Prewett from the Order and then Molly Wesley their sister. With her mind made up she called Molly to the school. Molly exited the floo in her office looking furious and making her rise her eyebrows in surprise.

"I swear to god what have those twins done this time?" she said barely keeping her rage in check.

"Sorry Molly but you have misunderstood why I called you here. None of your family is in trouble. I called you here because I wished to ask you for a favour. Can I please have you use this blood quill here to draw up your family tree for me? I have a reason for asking you to do so but I'd like to be sure I'm entirely right before I proceed!" she said as Molly looked shocked.

"Well at least my kids aren't misbehaving. Yes Lily I will do as you ask. I am most intrigued!" she said writing her name on the page as her family tree was drawn out. Lily watched it appear and gasped.

"Yes it is as I suspected. Your brother Michael Alexander Prewett is having a baby with my sister Petunia Marie Evans. Petunia is a muggle and had no powers at all when we were young. She met your squib brother in the muggle world and began dating him after her divorce from her ex husband. I am pleased to say he makes her so happy. She deserves it so much. Now if you will allow me a moment I am going to do my own family tree. I am interested to see what it says about Petunia in there!" she said as Molly gasped her hand flying to her mouth in shock as tears leaked from her eyes.

"Yes you can do that. Why was I never told about him? Oh dad how could you screw up so damn much!?" she cried out. Both of her parents were now dead having perished in the last war and so she had no one left she could scream at. Lily did the test and gasped but not for the reason Molly was thinking.

"It would seem that my great grandparents were purebloods! I never knew that. My grandmother was cast out of her family as a squib. My mother was a squib herself and had Petunia another squib and me the first magical person in her family in two generations. This makes so much sense now. Petunia said in her letter mum always said I was blessed by god to have been given magic and that they were not deemed special enough to have it. I don't think she knew she was squib. I must ask you Molly are you going to contact your brother? It seems he knows he is squib and has even been in the magical world from time to time. He told Petunia this!" she said as Molly looked at her in awe.

"I am not what people would expect of me. The point is whether I like it or not I have been lied to by my parents. I cannot believe they would just throw him out. I know from reading your letter as you allowed me to that he was put with a loving family and kept his name. I know he knew he was a squib and all that but he could have remained here with us. He could have gotten a job in a bookshop in Diagon Alley or something which required no use of magic. He didn't need to be abandoned like some disgrace he never ever was. Arthur will be pleased to know his brother in law is a mechanic. I will need to go and see him. If they have a magical child I will help him or her out as much as I can. Thank you so much Lily for giving me back some of my family. I was devastated when Gideon and Fabian died!" she said blowing her nose on the handkerchief in her hands.

After taking a quick calming draft which she had needed Molly went to talk to her children about it who were shocked to see her at school at all.

"Come in boys and sit down we need to talk" she said as Percy, Fred, George and Ron entered and sat down at the table where she was currently sitting herself.

"We did nothing wrong mum we swear!" said Fred and George together as Percy responded with "Yes and I am the king of France!"

"Please boys do be quiet this isn't about you but about my family as a whole. There has been a new addition to my family. You see my parents had a son who was a squib and excluded him from our family for that reason alone. He was sent to live in the muggle world where he recently met and started to date Professor Evans muggle sister Petunia. His name is Michael Alexander Prewett a mechanic but he prefers to go by Mike. He and Petunia are having a baby and I wish to welcome him back into the family he was so rudely thrown from. I would never want that of him. If he has a magical child we will help him as much as we can!" she said as they all gaped at her.

"So you mean to say we have a new uncle? That's really cool mum. Dad will love it that he's a mechanic. You know how dad gets about his muggle stuff. I hope their child is magical but even if he or she is not we will still love them none the less won't we lads? I mean a new cousin how cool!" Percy enthused delighted he was gaining more family of an interesting nature. It did beat being as boring as they usually were. Molly had already decided to go and visit him in Surrey with Lily as Lily would know how to get around without making a show of herself like she would if she did so alone. Arthur would not join them the first time as she would want some alone time with her brother. Molly decided to write to Petunia too and talk to her about some things. As the boys who were now shocked and happy left the room she headed home to tell Arthur about it.

Back in her office Lily sat down and started to write her letter to Petunia. Petunia was in the bath when Dolly Lily's personal elf brought her letter back to her unphased by her nakedness. Petunia dried her hands and opened the letter in shock. She hadn't seen that writing for years which had been James' fault entirely. She would tell Lily about it if she could get her to meet her in person.

Dearest Petunia,

I was if I am honest shocked and delighted to get your letter. Things have certainly changed for me in recent months to say the least. I am not sorry you left Vernon. He was a jerk and I always thought he was not good enough for you. I told dad that you know before you got married and he told me that I was special and not allowed to complain that you had finally found some happiness even if it was with that man. Thank god you are free of him at last. I am happy he is being a good father to Dudley. Thank you so much from one mother to another for thinking of Harry's well-being. I know we left him with you but it was James' idea and I then insisted that we leave him with you. I knew no matter what he'd always be better off with you somehow. I guess you could call it mothers intuition or something like that.

James didn't like it but did what I said none the less. As you know we thought Harry a squib until we discovered he wasn't. James essentially asked me to choose between him and Harry and it is no surprise that Harry won. I had lost my child once I was not about to loose him again. I couldn't fail him again. I then discovered that James had been having an affair with a pureblood woman for years. I had already known that actually years prior but using cunning methods I was able to find out who she was. Imagine my shock when I found out she'd given birth to his daughter a couple of weeks after me having his twins. It was a shock to say the least. I had to divorce him and I did so easily. I disinherited Harry from the Potter family but not before removing half of his entire wealth and placing it in a vault for Harry to use under his new Black surname. I told you mama didn't raise no fool nor daddy for that matter.

I have no idea why you didn't get in touch with me but I guess we'll talk about that in a few days when I call by the house. I still remember where you live. You are lucky you found out about Vernon and not me because if I had he'd be dead and they wouldn't find his body at all. This is a sincere promise. I have in the last few months found love myself. You see for years the sex and love had been gone from my marriage to James so I knew he had to have been cheating on me nothing else would have made sense to me. I had vowed when I had divorced him that marriage was hell and that I would never ever be tied down like that again. I am currently dating Severus Snape of all people. You remember him from my childhood don't you? He's so loving and attentive to me. He makes me feel loved and desired all the time something James never did. Also he lasts longer instead of being a Freddie five minutes like James. I have recently heard he's not like that with his pureblood whore but she's welcome to him.

Severus and I have promised to have two or three children together in our lives. I love him with all I have. He's so good for me and Harry knows about him. I have yet to tell Jim about it but I gather from Harry that Jim's situation has changed in some way and until I hear in which way that it has changed I will not be telling him. On Thursday evening I will call by the house. I have informed Molly Weasley nee Prewett Mike's sister of the situation and she was moved to tears. She hadn't known about him even existing if you can believe that and was so happy to have a brother again. Thank you for telling me about him Petunia and congratulations on your baby news. I love you so very much. We both deserve every happiness and I'll be damned if we don't get it now. Should your unborn baby be magical Molly and I have vowed to help you raising him or her in the best way possible. Stay safe and thank Mike for me for giving you the happiness you deserve so much.

Love as always, your sister,

Lily xoxo

She cried as she read it. It would seem Lily was now happy too and she was very excited for her. Severus had always been a bit weird but she knew that as long as he was making her happy that's all that mattered. She did wonder what Jim's change in situation was but she was sure Lily would tell her in a few days when they met up. She was startled as Dolly came back with another letter for her.

"Mrs Weasley asked Dolly to deliver this to you. Dolly will now serve Mrs Weasley when she needs me as Mistress Lily has asked me to. If you need anything at all Dolly will also help you sister of Lily. You just call to me ok?" she asked kindly patting Petunia's arm.

"I will of course Dolly. You are too kind. There is some food in the kitchen and you can help yourself to some dinner if you need anything. You must be very hungry after all your trips!" she said kindly shocked as Dolly burst into tears.

"You and mistress Lily are always so kind to me. Thank you so much for being so kind to Dolly. I would like some food!" she said leaving and heading for the kitchen where she found none other then an Irish stew in the pot on the stove. It was one of her Lily's favourites so they had often had it at home. Lily's grandmother had been Irish which is why they knew about it at all in the first place. With a snap of her fingers the whole house was cleaning itself as she ate. It was the least she could do with all the yummy food Petunia had provided her with. Petunia meanwhile opened the letter and began to read it.

Dear Ms Petunia Evans,

My name is Mrs Molly Weasley nee Prewett and Mike your boyfriend is my long lost brother. I had not known he existed and was so delighted to hear of him today. I can say however that I resent my late parents for sending him away. They had no right to do that to me. I thought I had no more siblings left but it was all a lie. Truly my prayers were answered when I heard of Mike. My husband Arthur is obsessed with Muggle stuff so he will be delighted to talk to Mike about everything. I have seven children myself. As Lily said to me before you people in the muggle world might say there was nothing good on the television henceforth all the children. She seemed to find that very funny but I am not sure why. I am sure once I understand why I too will find it funny.

I have Charles, William, Percival, Fred and George who are identical twins, Ronald who is in Harry's year and Ginevra my youngest and only daughter who will start at Hogwarts next year. As a mother to many you could say I have the best experience with raising a family then most people you know. I wanted to say that if you ever need to ask me anything or any maternal or pregnancy advice I would be more then happy to help out my new niece or nephew. You have essentially completed my life and I am so happy to call you a member of my family. Lily did a test on herself and discovered you were a squib too. It will mean you can both come to my home for dinner on Sunday which I would really appreciate. Me and Arthur do not have much money and the house may be less then what you are used to but we get by and enjoy our lives none the less.

If you ever decide to marry Mike or not I don't care really I will be happy to be gaining a sister in any capacity I can. You see I always wanted a sister so as you can imagine I am delighted. Your sister Lily is a marvellous young lady and has given me access to her house elf Dolly who has been an immense help to me. She was actually happy to have someone else to serve too. I had her clean my house and it actually looks good as new to my shock. It did take her hours to complete but she assured me she loved doing it for me so I was happy to have her do it. Advice about house elves is that they like doing tasks for you. It makes their magic stronger. I am considering coming with your sister on Thursday evening to meet my brother. I will come and go and meet him while she meets you privately. We both need to catch up with our long lost siblings so to speak. I will always be here for you sister and thank you so much for bringing joy to my brother and I.

Love as always your sister in anyway you like and hopefully future dear friend,

Molly Weasley.

She read the letter and cried. She had gone from having no support from anyone but Mike to two people including her sister in the space of a few hours. It felt amazing. She squealed then a shocked squeal as she glanced down and saw that blood was slowly filling the bath tub. She felt such sudden pain like she was being ripped inside out. She was so frightened as she called for Dolly who saw the blood and snapped her fingers having her dressed and in saint Mungos in a matter of moments. "Please help my Mistress Lily's sister Petunia Evans she is sick. She is having a baby!" she called out as a mediwitch rushed over and levitated Petunia on to a bed.

"Don't worry Ms Evans we will have you seen to momentarily. Please take this calming draft. It will not harm you or the baby!" the mediwitch said as a dubious Petunia did so. She instantly calmed down but it didn't mean she wasn't still very worried. The mediwitch scanned her stomach and gasped.

"Well yes I can see the problem here. You have had a miscarriage of one of your babies. You were due to have triplets but one them died. They are from this scan alone very magical and your non magical body could not support them all. I will have to give you a magical sustenance potion which you will need to take once every two weeks to help you and the babies out. You are having twins. You are currently eight weeks along. Congratulations ma'am!" she said as Petunia cried. She mourned the loss of her baby and felt confused over her joy that two of them were fine and would survive. She had never considered her pregnancy would have been a multiple one. However it was in her genealogy that multiple births always happened in her family. Their mother had given birth to twins who had been too feeble to survive unfortunately before either of them had been born. It had changed her mother forever and now it was highly possible it might change her.

She smiled then as she saw Lily and who she assumed to be Molly Weasley entering the hospital room and sitting with her. Lily cradled her sister close as the tears fell. Loosing a baby was something she never thought of as it had not happened to her before. The two women sat in that hospital room together cuddling and supporting Petunia as she dealt with the loss of one of her babies and the survival of the other two.

"Petunia darling I have had twins and I know how hard it can be. Even I was given those magical sustenance potions when I was pregnant with Fred and George. Don't you worry sweetheart. We're going to look after you now. You can come home with me to my house if you like or if not I can come with you to yours and spend a day or two there!" said Molly kindly as Petunia once more cried.

"Thank you Molly you are too kind to me. I don't even know you all that well and yet you offer your services to me so kindly. I can ask for no more then that. I would rather go home to my own house and you can come and spend the night there with me if you like but you might not understand how things work there. I'm not sure. Lily will tell you how things work there. I am so tired I am sorry!" she said drifting off to sleep.

Molly looked at her new sister with such sympathy. She'd been through so much. Although Molly was older then them both at forty five years old she still cared very much for her new family members. It was agreed that Molly would spend the night with Petunia and she let her family at home know about it. Arthur was happy to support her in her decision. Once they all made it home Petunia who was once more exhausted went straight to bed. Molly listened as Lily told her how things worked and then went home herself. It was a contented but tired Molly who fell asleep in her new bed for the night. All would be well with her new family and she would make sure of that.
