Chapter Three: The Talk with Harry
(Just to let everyone know anything that is in italics is a letter, anything italic/bold is people talking though their minds, anything italic/bold/caps is a dream, and anything italic/bold/underlined is flashback)
Hermione woke up the next morning feeling something or someone pressed up against her. She slowly pulled back the covers to only find her son snuggled up against her. Hermione pushed him gently to wake him up, but he wouldn't wake up.
"Alex wake up…ALEXANDER REMUS MA...DODGERS WAKE UP RIGHT NOW!" shouted Hermione. Alex then fell out of the bed rubbing his ass.
"Merlin Mum you don't have to yell. And what did you almost call me?" asked Alex
"Nothing dear and watch your mouth. You need to get back to the Slytherin common room and get dressed. I'll see you at breakfast, class, lunch and dinner ok." Hermione kissed the top of her son's head and he went running out of the room and back to the common room. Hermione slowly got up and walked into her sitting room. When she got there she found a letter on the table. She picked it up and started to read it
Dear Miss Eloise Dodgers,
I would like to talk to you before breakfast in my office. There are a few things I need to discuss with you before you start your first day at Hogwarts. Please be in there at about 8:30.
Thank you,
Harry Potter
Hermione reread the letter. "Did I do something wrong?" she asked herself. She shrugged it off and went to go get cleaned up and dressed. She quickly ran up to Harry's office. "Sixteen Candles!" shouted Hermione and the gargoyle moved aside and let her in. Hermione quickly walked up the stairs.
"Early as usual. You always had to set the good example didn't you?" joked Harry.
"Headmaster I have no idea what you are talking about." Hermione replied panicky.
"You don't need to call me Headmaster you can call me Harry. Now Eloise I have a few questions for you. Where did you go to school at for your first though seventh year? I checked the Hogwarts records, Beauxbatons records, Durmstrang records, and Salem Academy records and there hasn't been an Eloise Dodgers there. So who are you really and why does your son look like my best friend Hermione Fawne Granger?" asked Harry
"Harry I do not know what you are talking about! Did you ever think I was home schooled as girl? I am not your lost friend and maybe it is just a coincidence that my son looks like her! And Harry James Potter you will not raise your voice at me or so help me I'll snap your arm so hard that you wish Lockheart would put that bone spell on you again and Skeleton Grow won't fix it and you won't be able to play Quidditch anymore!" shouted Hermione.
"You can't fool me Hermione. I know its you. You are the only one who would ever use my full name and only a handful of people knew what happened to me in our second year. Plus my map never lies. Its says Hermione Fawne Granger is sitting right in front of Harry James Potter," said Harry with a smile on his face. Hermione looked up at him and started to cry.
"Harry I wanted to tell you so badly but I couldn't or my life would be at risk. Please don't tell Draco about Alex," Hermione cried.
Harry walked over to his friend, wrapped his arms around her, and hugged her. "Hermy don't worry I won't tell him but you have to tell him soon at least by Halloween or else I am going to tell him and he won't be a happy camper. Anyway why did you run away?" asked Harry.
"You noticed I wasn't anywhere near the battle field right. Well I was helping Madame Pomfrey in the Hospital Ward because I was about seven or eight months pregnant. The only reason you, Ron, Draco, or anyone else at this school didn't notice was because I put a disillusionment charm on me since I started to show. A couple nights before the big battle I was walking in Hogsmeade when Lucius grabbed me and pulled me into an alley. He said that he knew I was pregnant with Draco's baby and if I knew what was good for me I would leave you, Ron, and Draco after graduation and never see you again. He also told me if I tried to see Draco he would kill my baby right in front of Draco and me, then kill Draco in front of me, and then kill me, not with the Killing Curse but he would kill me slowly and painfully. I was afraid it would happen so I decided not to tell anyone about the baby, and after we graduated I would leave until Lucius was dead, which I heard happened last year in Azkaban." Hermione paused, " Can you ever forgive me?"
Harry looked at Hermione and smiled. "Of course but we can't tell Ron yet he will blab it to Draco. Now you probably want to know what happened to all the teachers here and who Ron and I married right?" asked Harry. Hermione nodded
"Well Ron, Draco, and I became apprentices in our seventh year with you remember? Well, after the battle Draco, Ron, and I were still apprenticing for about a year, and then became professors. About three years ago Albus asked me to be headmaster, because he, Minerva, and Snape were retiring together and Minerva asked Draco if he would be Deputy Headmaster. Also, after the last battle Ron married Luna and I, Ginny and got them pregnant. Ginny and I have six other children, while Luna and Ron have the same, and with three more on the way. Draco hasn't dated anyone since you left. Every year he would hope to see you walk though the doors as the new Transfiguration Professor since we don't seem to keep one here for long. He went into depression for about a year but he is better now," Harry said.
Both talked until the school bell started when they had to go and teach their classes.
"Harry, I promise I will tell Draco by Halloween. I will also have to tell Alex the truth since he does not remember the memories I told him of Draco and I. You see i removed them a while ago." Hermione replied. Harry nodded and sent her off her way.
After classes were done Hermione went back to her rooms. When she got there she found her son sitting at a desk doing his homework. "Alex honey why don't you do your homework outside? Its such a nice a day." Hermione asked.
"Ok Mother." replied Alex sadly and he gathered his stuff and walked out of her quarters. Hermione sat at her desk and started to grade her papers. Many hours later after Hermione had fallen asleep on top of her papers she started dreaming. Unknowingly she started to communicate to Draco in her dreams. "Mmmm Draco, I have missed you. I want to tell you so much but I can't right now. It will have to wait. You don't know how much I have missed your touch and kiss. Plus your son is so much like you in so many ways…."
Down in the dungeons Draco woke up jerking forward in his bed trying to answer her. "Hermia wait! Don't go!" But Hermione had already fallen into a deep sleep.
