I hope that all of you will continue to read it. You're all in for one
roller-coaster ride!! Whippy!! Now I have to continue my part of the
bargain, ten reviews to one chapter.
Summary: Hermione follows up to meet her family but what she doesn't know is that her friends are going to be there. Sadie continues to stay away from Draco. I'm not quite sure if it'll be in this chapter when Draco confronts Hermione. let's just wait and see. even I don't know what's going to happen until I type it all down because summary's are like the blue prints of the story. so I don't know yet. I shall add a little of Harry and Ginny stuff but honestly I am only a fan of D/H. but because most of you wanted it I'll put it. And about Ron. this is the chapter where he is finally mentioned.
Special Thanks: Wow!!! I am in so much shock right now. (breathe Kathleen. breathe) Thanks to all those reviews!! Ahh!! Yey!! I am having so much fun writing this story and I am glad you all are enjoying it. I'll be asking more questions again later cause I like it when the readers are participating in making the story. I do that with my friends. haha!!
Corrections: Okay. I made a few mistakes and I won't take it back but I will learn from it. : ) So I'll read chapter four again and check what mistakes I made and I'll try to be more aware of it later in the story. on with the show!!
~*~*~*~
"Never regret who you are, only what you've become." - I don't know. (bites lip)
Hermione searched for the number she knew so well, Sadie's.
"Talk to me." A small voice whispered.
"Why so soft? Do you have laryngitis?" Hermione said mockingly. "What's your great aunt making you do now?"
"We're in the fifth museum and they all look alike although there were some interesting ones but all I want to do right now is go back to the hotel. I discovered that they had a basketball court there."
"Five museums and you left at ten but it's only one?" Hermione bit her lip. "Maybe I better stay here."
"Mom." Sadie said making a frustrated muffled sound.
"I'm just kidding. I'm already in the taxi on the way to the Lafayette Gardens." Hermione looked at her watch. "I should be there in like thirty minutes."
"Cool. We're like ten minutes away from there and according to GAG we'll be leaving like." There was a long pause.
"Sadie?"
"Oh my god mom I just saw the gate to heaven."
"Chocolate stand?"
"Nope."
"Oh." Hermione got excited. "Cute guy!!"
"No." Sadie rolled her eyes.
"What?" Hermione asked sounding really bored.
She heard footsteps running. "The exit! Yeah!"
"You left everyone behind who's with you now?" Hermione asked.
"K, looking very wiped out and angry I think we made a small scene in the museum when I ran." Sadie giggled.
"Uh-oh. not good. Bad girl, bad." Hermione laughed. "But seriously I've got to teach you to appreciate art it's very."
"Yeah sure mom."
"But I don't blame you one museum is enough to fill me for a year although the history behind each painting is rather interesting."
"That's what you were made for mom." Sadie giggled. "History."
"Samantha Danielle." A voice came.
"Oh no! Is that Gracie's voice. sounds like someone's in trouble." Hermione stifled a giggle. "She used your whole name. the world shall come to an end!"
~*~*~*~
"Bye mom." Sadie quickly turned to the voice that was calling her.
"Oh, you are in for it." K laughed quietly. Sadie hit him on the stomach with the back of her hand.
"Yes?" Sadie put out her best smile.
"What just happened in there?" Gracie looked cross.
"I. uh." Sadie looked at everyone who was looking at her. "Geez! Why are all of you looking at me I feel like I'm in trial."
"You will be if you don't explain what just went on in there." Gracie looked at her. This was the Gracie, Sadie knew. she was the bossy, snotty girl who just loved to pick on her.
"I'm sorry." Sadie apologized. "If you all want you can send me back to the hotel."
"Maybe we should." Gracie began.
"Uh-uh!" Ashley protested. "That is so not fair."
Sadie made a face at her aunt.
"I was bad. I'll go back after lunch." Sadie nodded her head.
"Okay." Gracie looked at the teenager and began to walk to the Lafayette Gardens.
"Thank you." K looked at Sadie happily.
"Cheater." Sadie turned to see Uncle Andy wrinkling his nose.
"Ha!" Sadie giggled proudly.
"You think I could get in trouble too?" Ryan approached her.
"I don't know but I am so out of here after lunch." Sadie clapped her hands. Gracie turned to her and Sadie went back to putting that sad expression on her face again.
The group arrived at the Lafayette Gardens and decided to have lunch in a small café there.
"Is your mom coming?" Gracie looked at Sadie.
"Yes." She looked at Draco whose eyes got bigger when she gave the answer. "Excuse me for a moment." K stood up at same time she did. "Stay."
"No." K told her. Sadie gave him a weak smile and continued to walk
"Where are you going?" Ginny spoke up.
"Just to that chocolate stand out front." Sadie smiled.
~*~*~*~
Hermione began to walk to the café where she was to meet the rest of the group. As she got nearer to the café she saw a stand with a tall, lanky brown head and a big guy.
"Maybe he does attract to much attention." Hermione laughed. She walked behind Sadie. "Hey there stranger."
"Mom." Sadie turned around and wrapped her arms around her.
"What's that?" Hermione asked.
"Life." Sadie beamed. "I'll be needing it when I go back to the hotel later."
"Huh?"
"I was kicked out of the group for trying to run for freedom. There is no democracy these days." Sadie giggled.
"We'll see what I have to say about that."
"I am shattered that I cannot go with you guys for the rest of the tour." Sadie said obviously acting.
Hermione decided to play along. "In that case I will tell Gracie how much you absolutely adore museums."
"Mom!" Sadie shook her head.
"It's okay my little genius I will tell my aunt how much you really want to see all those boring pictures and that it was an important call."
"The call wasn't very important and I think I am smart enough." Sadie nodded.
"Oh but the call was very important and enough is not enough." Hermione laughed at what she said.
"Is my mother turning into a bimbo?" Sadie giggled.
"I got it from my daughter." Hermione wiped away an invisible tear.
"Whatever, mom." Sadie got her package and handed it to K. "Let's go."
The two "Granger Girls" (haha!) headed into the restaurant.
Hermione spotted Draco the moment she stepped in. "Shit! I didn't know he was here."
"My mother, your eyes are fast and your words are rude." Sadie puckered her lips. "After all he is the man you made me with."
Hermione looked at her daughter in shock. "Baaaaad!" Hermione mimicked a sheep.
"You should really try out to be a voice over for sheep's." Sadie laughed. "Come on, mom. Face your fear. face the mirror."
Hermione giggled a little. "That should be your fear too then because people keep telling me how much we look alike."
"AY! Let's just go." Sadie grabbed her mom's hand and brought her to the table.
~*~*~*~
The group didn't notice the two girls who were approaching their table.
"Look who I found." Sadie said proudly. "The little dog was all alone and I just had to have her." She patted Hermione on the head.
"Pushing it." Hermione said sternly.
"Love ya!" Sadie smiled sweetly.
"Hermione, darling do sit down here beside Draco. I don't think you've met him yet, he's Ashley's fiancé."
Hermione cringed when Gracie said that.
"Draco." Hermione nodded at him.
"Hermione." Draco looked at her.
"You can sit there beside Ashley and..." Gracie began.
"No!" Sadie saved. "She'll sit in between me and Ginny in front of."
Hermione gave Sadie the wrong move look. Now Hermione was going to have to sit in front of Draco throughout the entire lunch.
"Okay." Gracie nodded.
The group finally ordered.
~*~*~*~
Memory hit Hermione fast as she turned to Ginny.
"Where's your brother?" Hermione asked.
"Which one?" Ginny smiled at her.
"Ron."
Ginny's smile turned into a small, sad frown. "He's dead."
Ginny's words crashed into Hermione fast and hard. She couldn't believe what Ginny had just said.
"When? Where? How?" Were the only words that left Hermione's mouth.
"Nearly ten years ago. There was some sort of witch-out (my version of shoot-out) and Ron got hit really bad." Ginny put a hand of comfort on Hermione's shoulder.
"So long ago." Hermione began.
"We really tried to find you, honest. And yet we still couldn't find you. And after Ronnie died we figured you just wanted to be left alone so we gave up."
Hermione couldn't cry anymore. It had been so long ago and she knew that after that much time all they had left were the memories and the good times.
"I feel like I'm going to choke." Hermione grabbed her glass of water. "I can't cry but my heart it just feels like its drowning."
"I know the feeling." Ginny looked at her sadly.
"I'm so sorry, Ginny." Hermione looked at her friend with sympathy. "Sorry for bringing it up."
"It was now or never." Ginny smiled. "Let's change the topic."
~*~*~*~
Draco looked at Hermione from the other side of the table. Then her turned to Sadie who was facing Hermione and vice-versa. They shared the exact same features.
'She is definitely her mother's daughter.' Draco thought to himself.
He watched as the two girls giggled and talked. He could see that when Hermione looked at Sadie her eyes were full of love.
Hermione turned to Draco, "Hey, How have you been?"
Draco sat there in shock. "I. I." He was going to say hi and fine but it came out as. "Hine"
"Huh?" Sadie and Hermione said at the same time. They turned to each other. "Jinx!"
"1,2,3, bad luck for you, good luck for me!" Sadie finished. Hermione shot a cute expression at her daughter.
"Not until someone says your name!" Ashley joined in. The two girls glared at her as she laughed. "Peace!"
"What happened?" Harry looked at the two girls then back at Ashley. "Now it will be peace and quiet for the rest of the trip."
"Hermione, Sadie and Ashley! This is no time for foolishness." Gracie said.
"Yes." The three girls breathed out sadly. And quickly turned to each other. "Jinx! 1,2,3, bad luck for you good luck for me."
"Not until someone says your name." K finally spoke up.
"Sadie. I don't understand this game." Ryan asked.
"Oh yeah, oh yeah. I'm free, I'm careless, I believe. oh yeah!" Sadie danced while sitting on her chair. (think Keeping the Faith when they were kids)
Ashley and Hermione shot looks that could kill at Ryan.
"Sorry." Ryan bit his lip.
"Her. her. hachoooo!" Ginny teased.
"Ash. ash. ashes, ashes we all fall down!" Pansy played along.
"Is this a girl thing?" Seamus looked confused. "Because I'm not getting this."
Hermione and Ashley began to look at people as if asking them to say their names.
"Hey Ashley." Seamus looked at her. Hermione's eyes got big. She was now the only one who couldn't talk.
"I could kiss you right now!" Ashley beamed.
"One he's married, two you're engaged to one of his best friends." Pansy laughed as the rest of the group did too all except Hermione and Sadie.
"Mom." Sadie whispered in Hermione's ear. Hermione smiled at her. "Hermione Elizabeth C. Granger."
"Yes?" Hermione smiled at her daughter. The two girls laughed.
Draco watched in awe as he saw how even when they laughed they looked a like.
Pansy spoke up again. "It's amazing how you two are so a like and how different Hermione is now."
"I tamed the hair and the attitude." Sadie smirked.
Draco knew were that smirk came from. It was his signature expression. It was his smirk.
'She does belong to me.' Draco thought
~*~*~*~
A/N: I'm sorry if I didn't put the Draco/ Hermione part!! Forgive me! And about the Harry/ Ginny thing. I'm going to ask you some questions.
Do you think I should pair Harry up with Ashley instead of Ginny? What more do you want from this story? What are your expectations? Give your name if you want to be a close friend of Sadie. How do you like this story? Are you still eager to read more?
Sorry for all the questions. Can I ask for ten more reviews before I post chapter six? You do your part again and I'll do mine. : )
And if you have any suggestions for this story, do tell me. I am always, always open for new ideas!
Happy Easter! God Bless to all that are suffering now.
