Everlasting Memories







Chapter 6

Welcome to the Family



"Okay lemme get this straight, this is a school of witchcraft and wizardry and has existed for over a hundred years, right." asked Piper walking around the school grounds outside.

"Yeah....don't you have a school over there, too???" Hermione asked.

"Well no, you see our magic is different from here. My power is to freeze and make things explode, Phoebe's is levitation and premonitions, and Paige's is orbing and glamour. I have a son named Wyatt Matthew Halliwell and he's one and a half years old, the Elders predicted that he will be the most power fullest witch. He's half witch like me and half whitelighter like his Father, my husband, Leo."

"White....lighter????"

"Geez, we're going to have to explain a lot to you but for now lets just enjoy each other's company."

"Piper, where are Phoebe and Paige???"

"Oh their exploring the castle, they are surprised that there was a school like this. So am I."

"Where do you live???"

"San Francisco, California its in America. But if you still want to go here I'm sure we can make arrangements."

"Thanks. If Harry and Ron found out that I were-"

"Harry and Ron???" she said raising an eyebrow.

"Yeah-no its not like that, they are my best friends ever since first year and we had each others back ever since the You-Know-Who returned-"

"Who??"

"You-Know-Who...the Dark Lord...Lord Voldemort..."

"Who's that???"

"Well, well, well if it isn't the Mudblood associating with a new person and quiet lovely she is. Tell me why are you talking to the Mudblood when you can have a real pureblood, what is your name anyways???" said Malfoy standing before them with his goons Blaise, Pansy and some of the Slytherin Qudditch team.

"Who are you!?!" she retorted.

"Draco. Draco Malfoy. Nice to meet you."

"My name is Piper and the pleasure is all yours." she said as Hermione laughed of what she said.

"I that the bitch made an influence on you, Piper," said Pansy casting a hauntingly look at Hermione, "ditch the bitch and join us."

Piper stood up when she heard Pansy called her a bitch, Hermione stood up also looking at Pansy with disguise. "Hey back off barbie!!!!" shouted Piper.

"Barbie!?!" the Slytherins said with confusion. Obviously they didn't know what was 'barbie' but Hermione did and she broke down in fits of laughter.

"Shut up bitch!!!" snarled Malfoy kicking her in the leg.

"Hey!!!"

"Piper!!!!," shouted a woman running their way with another one behind her. One had light bright hair and the other had light red hair with highlights in it. "Piper, what's going on!!!" said the one with light brown hair.

"Malfoy, here came and bothered us while we were just talking." said Hermione.

"SHUT UP!!!"

"Hey don't talk to her like that!!!"

"Phoebe no!!!"

"Paige let go!!!

Piper had enough and made a gesture with her hands and everybody froze, except Phoebe and Paige. Piper turned to Hermione and made another gesture to her and she unfroze. Hermione looked at Malfoy and the rest of the Slytherins, she saw they were doing something but they were frozen.

"What'd you do to them!?!"

"I froze them." she said simply.

"Cool."

"I know."

"Hey Piper, Hermione the old guy wanted to see us." said Paige brushing her hair from her face.

"Hey come on, we don't want to get Hermione Leigh Ann Halliwell late." said Phoebe and the four of them set back to the castle but Piper stopped.

"What!?" asked Paige.

"One thing." Piper turned around made a gesture with her hands and unfroze the Slytherin's.

"Hermione," said Harry seeing her walking with three other people not wearing school robes. "Can we talk for a minute???"

"Oh so this is Harry," said Piper looking at Harry. "Its nice to meet you."

"Yeah, how'd you get that wicked scar on your forehead???"

"Paige!!!!"

"Sorry."

"You don't know who I am???"

Hermione groaned and grabbed his arm leading him away, "I'll be back go on without me!!!" she shouted back when turning a corner.

"Okay," said Phoebe, "hey Piper who was that???"

"Well talk about this later."

Harry and Hermione.....

They finally stood by a empty classroom so they wouldn't have anymore interruptions, cause that is all they usually get. "...Hermione..." he said weakly.

"Yes Harry???"

"Uh..I-I-I..."

"Harry are you alright, you're stuttering a lot???"

"Yeah fine."

"Okay what is that you wanted to tell me???"

"Hermione....ever since last year-you know when we survived the Ministry where Lord Voldemort was...well I kind of liked you..." he looked to see a shocked face on her. "And know I realize that its not just a crush...its more than that."

"Harry I-"

He put a finger up to her lips to make her silent, then leaned forward but Hermione turned her head and Harry had a hurt expression on his face.

"Harry," she said taking a step back, "I can't do this."

"Why not???"

"Because my parents just died a few weeks again and doing this just makes me vulnerable to anything, it would symbolize that I needed someone to be strong for me and that I would be week. I can't do this Harry not yet....I have to be strong right now, Harry and I have to be independent."

"Hermione-"

"No Harry....lets be friends for now and see what happens from there."

"....Alright..."

Hermione smiled and kissed him on his cheek. "Thank you." she said before running off towards the Headmaster's office.

Headmaster's Office......

"So what implying, Professor???" asked Phoebe looking up at him. Phoebe as you know has light brown hair and she wore a sleeveless shirt that said 'Butterfly' and it had glittering stars shining in the light, with dark blue stretch jeans that flared at the end, Paige wore a swirl print with branded bottom that ties around the neck and black wide leg cords with sailor style bottom closures and lace up on the sides of her legs. They each sat in different chairs infront of Dumbledore.

"I was just thinking that maybe you three could be teachers for this year and if you want to continue it you could. Our last Professor for History of Magic, Professor Binn's retired for an unknown reason and we need a teacher for Defense Against the Dark Arts. What do you say???"

"I dunno. I have a club to look after-"

"And I have to work on the newspaper cause you see I'm a columnist, I write for relationships. So I dunno if I can."

Paige how ever remanded silent. "I can do it and Piper can work with me while Phoebe does the History of Magic. Piper I'm sure Janette would be happy to cover for you and Phoebe I'm sure Angelina would more than likely give you a day off, she would always say you need a vacation."

"Paige!!!" they said together.

"Well can you think about it and come up with your decision on Halloween, were suppose to be here anyways." she argued.

"Okay well think about it til then...hello Miss Granger." said Dumbledore looking towards the door the three sisters turned towards her.

"Think about what???"

"Don't worry about that Hermione, you'll probably find out on the Halloween Feast and Ball. Til then take care." said Paige giving her a hug.

"Okay."

Paige took Phoebe's and Piper's hand. "Take care and welcome to the family, you're now a Halliwell." said Phoebe before Paige orbed out taking Piper and Phoebe with her leaving Hermione standing there amazed.

"Well Miss Granger off to class you already missed one class today, I believe you cannot afford to miss another."
