Westcher, New York—
Scott's point of view—
When Hermione left for her house I walked back into the school. There I noticed that Jean, storm, Professor Xavier and Hank standing there waiting for me. Jean had a knowing smile. She met Hermione a couple of times when she visited Harry.
"Where's your girlfriend Scott?" The Professor asked
"She went home." I said
"She's going to visit uncle Jamie, isn't she?" Jean asked
"Yes, She is. And do you know why? Harry just moved there." I say
"Who is this Jamie person? And why are you asking if Scott's girlfriend went to see him?" Storm asked
"His real name is James Logan Howlett Potter. He's related to Jean through marriage but she still calls him Uncle Jamie." I say
"When James thought he lost everything he came back to me so we wouldn't be alone. He's the one who you found me with in Canada. And uncle Jamie is also a mutant." Jean said
"Again why are you asking if Scott's girlfriend went to see him?" Storm asked
"There are something's that Mia is not very comfortable with and meeting new people is one of them. To you she ran away from you and reality. But to the people who know her the best she went on a trip." Jean said
"So on July 31st, 1995 me, Mia and Jean all went up to James's house to meet Harry for his birthday. I was supposed to distract Harry while James, Jean and Mia got the house ready with the help of one of James's friends Remus Lupin. That's was the first time Mia met James. And now James is like a father to Mia and he aloud for her to call him Dad." I said
Then I realized something.
"Somebody's in trouble." Jean sang
"Don't remind me Jean. James is going to kill me. WITH HIS CLAWS! Not to mention what Harry will do to me." I said
"Ha ha! You're so screwed!" Jean smiled
"And the thing is that we already had this conversation before." I say
"Who is this Harry you both are talking about?" Hank asked
"My cousin and Mia's best friend." Jean said
"Scott, Jean I ask something from the both of you?" The professor asked
"Sure professor." We said in unison
"If James is a mutant, why didn't he come here?" He asked
"The reasoning is complicated professor. See James was born in the 1830's and then in the 1950's he was asked to help a scientist with his project." Jean said
"To make a long story short something happened and James was reborn to the Potter family who he was friends with. And they helped him with his memories and mutation." I said
"And they didn't mind him not calling them mom and dad in privet. They just had to make it look like he was their son in public. And James only told his friend Remus about this." Jean said
"And because of the rebirthing process James got some more powers." I said
"That's why he never came here. It was because he had some other things to deal with. Maybe if you asked nicely he may come here now." Jean deadpanned
"Is He the reason you were in such good control of your powers when we got to you?" Storm asked
"Yes it is. Uncle James thought that if there were people out there that had a special school for mutants like they do wizards then I had to show them I had control over my powers." Jean said
"You know of the Wizarding world?" The professor asked
"Yes. Harry is a Wizard and the extra powers uncle James has is wizard powers and Mia is even a witch." Jean said
"Scott, Jean, Storm, Hank go to Mr. Howlett Potter's home. And let Scott and Jean do the talking." The Professor said
Then we went to the blackbird.
Alberta, Canada—
Hermione's point of view—
After I left Scott at the school I quickly apperated here. I need to talk to James. I needed to talk to my adoptive father. He's the only one I trusted right now. I found him right off the bat.
He was sitting with whom I assume is a coworker of his. As I walked up to him I could hear the Jonny Cash song Hurt playing low on a radio in the background. That song is one of Dads favorites since loosing Lily all those years ago. I wrapped my arms around myself as I began to panic.
"Daddy?" I said as my voice croak
He quickly turned to me. He saw the worry and panic in my eyes. Knowing what to do James then pulled me into a hug.
"It's going to Okay baby girl." He said
"I scared Daddy." I say
"Why are you scared babe?" Asked Dad
"Scott proposed to me earlier. I don't know what to do." I said
"Did you say yes? I'm assuming you said yes to him." Dad asked
"I did. I just feel that I'm too young Daddy. I don't know if I'm ready or not. I don't know if I will ever be ready. I know he loves me but I don't know if I'm ready for the next step." I say
Dad moved to Look me in the eyes. I knew he would do anything to make me feel better. Dad has always been my hero.
"Mia look at me. I got married to Lily straight out of Hogwarts. And look at us now. Lily is dead because of an arrogant asshole who believed in a prophecy from a fraud and I couldn't raise my own son because the Wizards think me dead because of Dumbledore's backwards thinking. It could be worse. It could be so much worse. Just be happy that you're here now." Dad said
He's right. It could have been worse. I could have died in the war and not seen anyone here again.
"I could have been married to Ronald. And I could not have you there because you don't like Wizarding Britain anymore." I say
Then I leaped onto the man who was basically the only father I knew. I hugged him tightly as I could. I knew I couldn't hurt him.
"I love you Daddy." I say
"I love you too sweetie." He said
"Daddy?" I say
"Yes sweets?" He said
"On my wedding day, will you give me away? Will you walk me down the aisle?" I asked
"It will be my honor to walk you down the aisle Mia. You don't even have to ask. I'll do it no matter what. You're my daughter." Dad said
"Thank you Daddy." I say
We noticed it was getting dark and so Dad took me home. He knew that is where I needed to be now. Dad bridal carried me to his room. Once home and in the room he laid me down on his bed knowing the smell will calm me. But I quickly got up and changed into one of Dad's shirts then went back to the bed.
"Good night Daddy. I love you." I murmured
"Good night princess. I love you too." Dad said
Dad kissed me on my head like he always did when I slept here and left the room. I snuggled into the blankets as I basically cocoon myself.
James Logan's point of view—
I walked out of my room quietly at the same time as when Harry came out of his.
"Dad?" Harry was confused
"Quiet. Hermione is in there." I said pointing to my room
"Why is she here?" He asked
"She had a panic attack. I was the only one she trusted at the time." I say
"Is she going to be okay?" Harry asked
"She will be in time." I say
Then we hear a knock on the door. Me and Harry cautiously walked to the door. There are only two people who would knock and it was rare that they do. They normally just walk right in without a second thought. Once at the door we got the scent. The scent was strong. It was Scott and Jean with two others. We opened the door and walk out. Jean and Scott look at us in surprise.
"Why are you two so calm?" Jean asked
"Your scent. It's strong right now." Harry said
"Were you bitten by a wolf or something?" Jean asked
"No. It's my mutation. I thought you knew about it." Harry said
"You know I can't read your mind because of the Oclomency that I helped you build." Jean practically yelled it out
"When did you get your mutation Harry?" Scott asked
'Always the voice of reason aren't you Scott.' I thought
I knew Jean could hear my thoughts.
"When I was thirteen. That is also when I started to write Dad." Harry said
"You know Scott's scent was all over Hermione." I said
"WHAT DID YOU DO?" Jean yelled turning to Scott
"Jean, she's my girlfriend. Of course my scent will be on her." Scott said
'Bad move Scott. I know everything.' I growled a thought
Jean muffled a giggle that only me and Harry could hear.
"Why are you here. And with two strangers none the less." I ask
"Professor Xavier would like you come to the school. I know for a fact that he was thinking of you teaching the defense class. He knows of Wizards Uncle." Jean said
"Tell him we will be there sometime tomorrow and then we will talk then." I say
"Can you give me a guess on what time you will be there?" Scott asked
'Is it really not obvious to him that I know about the engagement Jean?' I asked in my head
Jean gave a curt nod to my question. I was starting to think that Scott doesn't want me to know.
"Probably in the afternoon. In the morning I'm taking Hermione to Gringotts for some things." I say 'Jean it the dowry for Hermione's wedding.'
They all agreed and left. Me and Harry went back into the house for bed. After saying good night I went into my room. There I saw Hermione still sound asleep even after Jean's yelling.
I took off my shirt and unbuckled, unzipped and unbuttoned my pants. I sat down on my chair so I could take off my boots. But I paused what I was doing for a second. I looked to Hermione. She looked peaceful. I know it's been awhile since she's gotten peace in her life.
I really hoped she's making the right choice with Scott. I returned to taking my boots and pants off when I hear a soft moan. I see it's Hermione. She's probably having one of those good dreams.
