(A/N: Thanks so much to everyone who reviewed my story! I just hope I don't disappoint you all too much. I have a lot of the story written but I'm not sure of how fantastic it is so I might need some help from all of you but thanks for sticking with me and reading it…now onward with Chapter 4...)

"Now Lily, listen to me sweetheart. Be good and don't get into too much trouble. You can write home as much as you like and well...just have fun and I promise I will see you Christmas break. okay?"
"Alright Mom. Look its almost 11 and I need to get on the train. I love you Mom." Then Lily jumped into her mothers arms and gave her a kiss on the cheek. Hermione whispered in Lily's ear, "I love you too angel."
A few hours later the first years where walking into the Great Hall for the first time. All of the first years looked frightened and excited all at the same time. It was almost time for the sorting hat ceremony. But before that began, Dumbledore wanted to introduce the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher.
"Can I have your attention please? Thank you. Well first of all I would like to welcome you all to Hogwarts and secondly I would like to introduce to you our new DADA teacher, Mr. Harry Potter." Harry was sitting to the right of Professor Dumbledore and just smiled at everyone. Some girls let out sighs and just stared dreamily at him. Just the sight of that made him laugh under his breath. "Now let the sorting hat ceremony begin!" Professor McGonagal began to place the hat on several students placing them into their houses. Then came the beautiful girl with the long raven hair and the bright green eyes. "Granger, Lily" Professor McGonagal said. Harry just sat there thinking to himself 'Granger? Could that be Hermione's daughter? I guess she did move on like we said she would. Wow her daughter is beautiful just like her.' Harry couldnt keep these thoughts to himself any long. He had to ask someone. So he asked the only person he thought would know, Dumbledore.
"Professor, is that...is that girl right there Hermione's daughter?" Harry was nervous about the answer that he would be receiving.
"Shh Harry. Lets listen to what the sorting hat has to say then we will finish this converstaion." Dumbledore just stared at the girl who looked rather nervous.
'Ah yes. Bravery, Courage, Intelligence and a sense of rule breaking. Just like your parents. You would be fantastic in Ravenclaw. But where to put you? Hmm...well alright, now I'm sure...best be...GRYFINDOR!' Everyone cheered and clapped as Lily made her way over to her table. Harry just sat there and smiled. He didnt know what to think anymore. He was confused. Then he looked up at Dumbledore again for some sort of explanation.
"Ah yes Harry. I know you are wondering if that beautiful girl is Hermione's daughter and I am sad to inform you that she is."
"Well no wonder. She is beautiful like Hermione is. But how come you are sad to inform me about this? Its fantastic! That is Hermione's daughter! My best friend! I can talk to her about Hermione and-" Harry was cut off by Dumbledore.
"No Harry, I was sad to inform you because Hermione's daughter never knew her father. Hermione never told her. Lily has grown up with Hermione at her parents house with all of them. She has just never had a father figure in her life besides her Grandfather. Thats all Harry."
Harry was sitting there thinking about who the father could be. She was just so beautiful. It amazed him. "But what sort of father would leave his wife, or girlfriend or whatever he was to her, pregnant? Thats awful. I mean, to have her grow up without her father and never know him. That scumbag for leaving Hermione. Was it some sort of one night stand or what?" Harry had so many questions but one thing was for sure, he wanted to find Lily's father and kill him for not being there for his daughter and Hermione.
"Oh well Harry, you need to understand this, Lily's father never knew Hermione was pregnant. She never told him. She was scared that he would leave her. Disown her and their daughter. So Hermione left him. She wanted to stay away from him. She didn't want to hurt him."
"But how would her having a baby hurt him? I mean. obviously he loved her very much."
"Yes Harry, but thats why. She loved him too much to see him be tied down. She wanted at least for him to live a normal life. She thought it was best at the time. But over the past years she has been missing him."
"Why didnt' she tell me or Ron. We could have been there for her. I mean after all, I thought we were best friends. Hermione left after graduation and we never saw her again. Was it someone at Hogwarts? Was someone in my year the father of Lily?" Harry was starting to rack his brain when Dumbledore looked sad but nodded anyway. "Hmm...wait...Dumbledore.." Harry's eyes were wide now with a mix between fear, regret and excitement, "Lily is my daughter isnt she?"
Lily was sitting at her table as she watched Professor Potter and Dumbledore speak. She couldn't help but notice the similarities between the two of them. Raven hair, bright green eyes, a love of Quidditch…and the list could go on. She just dismissed them as coincidences and went back to eating her meal. But then it came to her, 'Could Harry Potter be my father?'
(A/N: Ehh..alrite I really am not good at writing. Haha. But please if anyone had ANY ideas about how the story should go on PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let me know! Thanks SOOO much! Later!
