Some more boss Hermione here because who doesn't enjoy that? Also more Lucius/Everyone interaction because I've decided he's a pretty cool dude in this fic.
I will apologise to the natives now on the mild descriptions of Soho and in particular Old Compton Street, i attempted to find establishments relevant to 1998 but couldn't really find anything from the bit of searching i did so i mostly just used present time establishments. Obviously I'm Australian but i have friends who have been to some of the places here and with reviews online i chose the places i chose haha.
Read and Review
Bellatrix decided to be selfish for a little bit and remained where she was even when she had calmed down and stopped crying like a fool. Part of her was really embarrassed for her reaction but the fact that this is what Hermione decided to gift her… it was so profound. She had found her soulmate and she had been given the opportunity to have a child of her own after years of thinking it was impossible. The fact that her Soulmate was so readily accepting that this was going to be an eventuality for them was amazing and had definitely made her cry.
Hermione really didn't mind either. Certainly they had cuddled in bed yesterday and last night and but this was different. This was Bellatrix having a moment and she was wanting to be held by Hermione which suited the younger witch just fine. Of course it didn't surprise her that eventually Bellatrix finally did lean back. Hermione lifted a hand to gently wipe away any remaining moisture from her witches face.
"You ok?" Hermione asks gently and Bella nods flushing faintly.
"I'm sorry that was really embarrassing." Bellatrix murmurs after a moment.
"That was really endearing. I didn't know you'd react like that though or i would have given it to you later in private." Hermione sounded apologetic and Bellatrix finally reached for the box.
"Its ok. No one has ever given me anything with so much meaning. The fact it was you makes it all the better." Bellatrix admits softly and smiles.
"This is just something I can give you. A promise for our future. You did say we are girlfriends after all and I don't do anything half way." Hermione offered with a light little grin.
"Does that mean you will want to be married one day?" Bellatrix asks with a playful smirk.
"Maybe one day." Hermione chuckles lightly watching as Bellatrix idly ran her finger along the practice wand.
"Thank you for this. For accepting me." Bellatrix spoke softly and genuinely.
"How could I not. You're perfect for me." Hermione smiled brightly.
"How do you figure that?" Bellatrix seemed a little surprised by this.
"You're brilliant, beautiful, smart. More compassionate than you let anyone know. I don't know what Ginny said to you but watching you with her, even though the contact made you uncomfortable you saw she needed the comfort. You're also funny and fun and I need more of that in my life. So yes I believe you are perfect for me. It doesn't hurt that you're also my soulmate." Hermione half shrugged and smiled.
"I'm keeping you." Bellatrix spoke up after a moment and even though she was sure she would have hated it if anyone else spoke as though she were some possession Hermione found she rather liked the way Bellatrix said that.
"Now that you mention Ginny though… that's why Minerva was here." Bellatrix explains grabbing the lid for the wand box and putting it back on it before sitting it aside.
"Oh?" Hermione queried curiously as Narcissa walked back in with a tea service for the three of them.
"You remember how I mentioned Ginny and Mental Health issues yesterday?" Bellatrix shifted on Hermione's lap but didn't get off of her.
"Of course." Hermione nodded and watched as Narcissa made the three of them tea making hers and Bella's just how they liked them even though Narcissa in this time line had never made Hermione tea before. Hermione wondered if that was something she carried over from the branched timeline subconsciously.
"I pitched the idea to Minerva, I want to open a couple of clinics and offer that kind of help for anyone that needs it. Ginny she… she said she actually thought about just wandering into the Forbidden Forest. It was that bad for her." Bellatrix shifted a little. She had killed but she had also been in a dark place herself once.
"You should talk to Lucius about Ginny." Narcissa speaks up after a moment.
"Why would I do that?" Bellatrix frowned at her little sister.
"Things were already afoot with Voldemort's return then. Lucius gave the book to Ginny in the first place. Granted he didn't know what it actually meant at the time. That kind of mental manipulation and possession… he never wanted to hurt children. He went a lot easier on Arthur at the Ministry after that. He never said it outright but i think he really regretted that whole year." Narcissa frowns a little.
"Perhaps, in time, that may be a healing point for both of them. For now, it might need to be left alone. However your plan for Clinics? Tell me more." Hermione looked from Narcissa to Bellatrix who looked slightly apprehensive.
"Well its like we said. There really isn't any place for magic folks to get that kind of help here. I figured it could be a free clinic on a booking system for those that fought in the battle of Hogwarts, a reduced fee for those who attended school that last year under the Carrow's and a full fee for those who wish to discuss their mental health in general. I will need to pay staff. I also need to find staff. And train staff." Bellatrix looked at her tea in her lap and Hermione watched her for a moment.
"I think that is a really fantastic idea Bella. What ever you need help with I'm fully on board. Training… I'll do some research." Hermione was already fully on board and she was beyond proud of this glorious woman for wanting to do this.
"What did Minerva have to say about it?" Narcissa asks curiously.
"She supports it. She's going to help find locations and such while I'm on house arrest. She thinks the sooner i get it started up the better in regards to the trial." Hermione had to agree with that, it would definitely help.
"She also wants me to hire Andy." Bellatrix added a moment later.
"Well she is a phenomenal healer. When we got Harry from the Potters and all used Polyjuice to be him Hagrid had been hurt pretty bad. They ended up at Andromeda and she was able to heal him even with his being half giant and naturally resistant to magic." Hermione explains smiling.
"That is pretty amazing." Narcissa nodded having to agree.
"To be fair from what I hear she'd have to be pretty good at healing or Nymphadora wouldn't have survived past 3." Bellatrix rolled her eyes though a small smile on her face kept any malice from her words.
"Yeah she's amazingly clumsy. I hope Teddy is steadier on his feet." Hermione chuckles softly.
A silence fell then, Bella And Cissa both having a bit of a moment where in they were both struck with the realisation that anything they knew of their sister and niece was gathered as Intel. They had been enemies for a long time and nothing when they weren't. The realisation that they had done that to Andy came with firm regret. Hermione watched them both, a gentle hand rubbing Bella's back and reaching over she gently squeezed Narcissa's hand.
"You'll be family again. Something just need a little time." Hermione offered reassuringly.
"Mails here." Narcissa absolutely had no hesitation about stalking into her sisters bedroom.
Bellatrix and Hermione had both been awake for a little while now and while they were still in their pyjamas and their hands were in relatively innocent places the fact that for the fourth morning in a row Narcissa had interrupted a rather heated make out session was getting frustrating. They couldn't for the life of them figure out why Narcissa insisted on being such a pest but she found excuses to come in here every morning so far. Bellatrix's jaw clenched under Hermione's hand as two envelopes were plopped on the bed beside the witch underneath her.
"Narcissa you may well be the reason I go back to Azkaban if you keep this up." Bellatrix sat back where she wad straddling Hermione's lap and the younger witch propped herself up on her elbows.
"It's getting on a bit, time to get up. Just thought you'd want your mail." Narcissa just shrugged and headed for the door.
"Cissy… I'm locking the door tomorrow." Hermione drawls and Narcissa just smirks at her over her shoulder before walking out.
"She is definitely doing it on purpose and I don't know why!" Bellatrix dropped herself back down against Hermione slumping on her and whining in that way that didn't fail to make Hermione laugh softly.
"I know, beautiful. But don't worry, I'm going to hex the door handle tonight." Hermione says with a little grin.
"I absolutely love how positively devious you are." Bellatrix purrs softly before leaning back just enough to reorient herself so she could bring her lips to Hermione's again.
Hermione lingered in the kiss letting Bellatrix deepen it, she hadn't ever really put but thought into all this before Bellatrix but she could definitely very easily spend most days simply kissing and spending time with this glorious witch. In fact kissing Bellatrix had fast become one of Hermione's favourite things. A favourite thing that the Malfoys seemed to like to interrupt.
"She'll be back if you don't cut it out." Narcissa had left the door open and it was Draco offered this information as he was ok his way past.
"Circes tits!" Hermione groans dropping her head back, Bellatrix grumbled with her forehead on Hermione's collarbone.
"We need to move out. I swear to everything Magic that if I have to remain ok house arrest for years it's got to be somewhere far away from my sister and her offspring." Bellatrix says sitting up on Hermione's lap again.
"And her husband. The git." Hermione added though with very slight affection. She never anticipated enjoying a playful Lucius but when he wasn't sneering he was quite bright and with a playful streak.
"You love me." The man in question offered strutting past the door without waiting for a response.
"I most certainly do not." Hermione rolls her eyes.
"I should hope not." Bellatrix chuckles and reaches for the two envelopes. One was, surprisingly, for her.
"That's from Minerva." Hermione noted the Hogwarts wax seal she could see on the back of the envelope.
"Indeed." Bella hummed and opened the letter putting out its contents. Along with a basic letter the envelope also held several descriptions of property for both Diagon and Hogsmead.
"She's found listing's for places she thinks would be suitable." Bellatrix explained handing the letter to Hermione to read through while she skimmed the listing's in her hand.
"We should take a proper look see over breakfast then." Hermione smiles happily she was forever proud of Bellatrix for this.
"That we should. What's your letter, my sweet?" Bellatrix urged Hermione to check it as she finally moved off the witch and let her sit up.
Hermione pulled open her own letter and skimmed through it. It was from Molly Weasley, she had invited her and Bella to dinner that evening. Hermione actually pouted as she showed Bellatrix the letter who read through carefully before huffing softly.
"You know I'm over my sister when I'd actually jump at the chance to have dinner with the Weasleys?" Bellatrix pouted.
"Leave it with me. I want to nip to muggle London today but I may go to the Ministry first and speak with Kingsley." Hermione says firmly and Bellatrix lifted an eyebrow.
"And do what exactly?" Bellatrix asks curiously.
"I'm going to see if I can't talk them into having your magical signature linked with my own so that we can move together and not just be in this house. I'd be able to take you to muggle London then , to the Weasleys for dinner and even go look at these places ourselves instead of relying on Minerva to do all the leg work." Hermione explains seriously.
"Can they even do that?" Bellatrix frowns slightly she'd never heard of such a thing.
"They can link your magical signature to a house I don't know why they couldn't do it to a person." Hermione shrugged she'd read the theory when the boys had first mentioned being Aurors so she figured it should work even if it wasn't a common practice.
"Well good luck." Bellatrix smiles amused she loved Hermione's drive.
"I won't need it." Hermione grinned.
And her confidence.
"Kingsley." Hermione called lightly as she thread through the people. The man in question turned and smiled at Hermione.
"Ahh Hermione. How are you?" The man inquired fondly.
"Good but I could be better that is why I'm here." Hermione explains when she was finally st his side.
"Shall we speak somewhere in private?" It was still early enough that Kingsley wasn't too busy.
"If you don't mind." Hermione nods.
Kingsley lead them through the people to the elevators, he managed to get away with only a few waves and good mornings from co-workers as they bustled around trying still to restore order to the place. He suspected that he hadn't been approached was because of the fierce young woman beside him. He definitely noticed the look she give Gilbert Price when he opened his mouth after Hello to try and engage the minister.
Once on the elevators they made their way up in silence and along to his Office. There wasn't an offer for tea which Hermione didn't actually mind. She'd just come from breakfast and really rather get to the point of the matter. They sat and he looked at her expectantly.
"Sir, I'd like to request Bellatrix Black be lifted from house arrest-"
"No. Absolutely not. I don't care if you are shagging her." He didn't even let her finish.
"First off, don't be a bloody arse. Second, don't interrupt me." Hermione scowls darkly at the man who frowned back.
"I'd like her lifted from house arrest and instead tied to myself. I'll be accountable for her though she has no intention of doing anything that might go against her during her trial. However she has things she's been encouraged to do by Minerva and it would be a lot easier if she could do them in person as opposed to having to rely on others." Hermione explains coldly.
"What sort of things. I still don't understand why you're so attached to her of all people. It's no secret to anyone that she tortured you." Kingsley was still frowning.
"Not that it's your business, I'm so attached because she's mine to attach myself to. Now will you do this simple thing for me or…" Hermione trails off letting that hang and Kinsley's frown to narrow suspiciously.
"Or what?" Kingsley asks slowly.
"Nothing… but you know I'm a highly resourceful woman and I know you hate paperwork." Hermione half shrugs at him.
Kingsley stared at her for a long moment remembering everything he had been told about her or had observed himself. She had come and asked nicely and he had made the mistake of interrupting her. That was his first wrong move. The second clearly was questioning her relationship with the ex-Death Eater in the first place. Heaving a sigh he pressed a button on his desk and ordered Gawain Robards of all people to his Office. Hermione didn't even flinch and frankly he found this 19 year old highly intimidating.
It was several minutes of silence, tense silence that Kingsley didn't exactly appreciate but seemed unable to avoid when the surprisingly stoic young woman say there stiff backed waiting. That Gawain took several minutes longer than he should have wasn't lost of Kingsley either. Finally though the man walked into the office only to look apprehensive upon seeing Hermione. Clearly he had had a run in with her a few days before.
"Robards. I'm going to require you to go back to the Manor with Miss Granger and release Bellatrix from house arrest and bind her to Hermione instead." Kingsley orders.
"I'm going to need Cissy's house arrest lifted as well." Hermione buts in before Gawain can say anything.
"Pardon?" Kingsley cleared his throat at the word came out more as a squeak.
"I had a chance to check in on the trial schedule before coming to find you. I noticed Cissa isn't even on the trial list. There is no need for her to be under house arrest. I want it lifted." Hermione says plainly.
"She's wife of a death eater and the sister of another!" Gawain sounded entirely indignant.
"I hate to point out that this world's as arse backwards and misogynistic as it is but just because she is the wife of a death eater does not make her a death eater. She married her husband she did not become an extension of him. In fact Lucy defected because of her not the other way around." Hermione's voice was awful cold as she spoke. Kingsley opened his mouth and then closed it and his eyes as he pinched the bridge of his nose for a moment.
"Fine! Gawain make sure you lift Narcissa Malfoys house arrest as well." Kingsley's tone was one of finality and he actually waved both Hermione and Gawain out of the office. Hermione kept a smug little grin to herself but on the inside she was beaming.
"You have to hand it to her. She tends to get what she wants." Draco offered looking at his rather put out father as his mothers restrictions were being lifted. Bellatrix had just been bound to Hermione.
The binding between Hermione and Bellatrix consisted of less lifting of the binding between estate and magical core and more limiting the binding so that the ministry would still be notified magically when Bellatrix left the Manor and that it would only really be a problem if Hermione was not within 15 metres of the witch outside of the Manor. Bellatrix hadn't minded that stipulation at all and even Hermione admitted that that made sense. When Gawain had suggested the same for Narcissa though the little witch had immediately put her foot down. Narcissa was freed effective immediately.
"Thank Merlin, we are on her side now. Could you imagine if she had been the one in charge of the Order? We'd have been squashed like bugs years ago." Lucius commented lightly as Narcissa lead Robards out of the Manor, there was less door slamming this go around.
"I don't like to think about it. I've been aware of her the whole time. Infuriatingly good at everything she does." Draco almost rolled his eyes at this.
"You should have dated her." Lucius spoke up after a moment of contemplation.
"And have my aunty Bella steal her from me? Even you can't deny they are extremely suitably matched." Draco points out shrugging at his father.
"I can't but I wish the little thing wasn't such a menace." Lucius heaves a long suffering sigh.
"At least she made sure you could keep your wand so you was able to dry your hair after she got you all wet at breakfast." Draco was struggling to sound sympathetic and not highly amused, based off the glare his father sent him he failed miserably.
"So what are you two doing then?" Narcissa asked walking back over to Hermione and Bellatrix. Bella was standing behind Hermione with her arms around the only slightly smaller witch and her chin on Hermione's shoulder.
"I'm going to Owl Molly and tell her we are going to be there for dinner later and then i think we should go and see Professor McGonagall and talk about viewing the places she found." Hermione explains looking from Narcissa to Bellatrix who nods.
"Alright and then?" Narcissa was curious for certain.
"I'm going to take Bellatrix to muggle London." Hermione grinned now, though she had plans to get some books on muggle Psychology techniques and try and draft some kind of training she also just wanted to introduce Bella to more of the muggle world.
"Just be safe. There are still some Death Eaters at large and should they find you Bella i hate to think how the scenario would play out." Narcissa had always been the worrier.
"I can handle those fools, besides have you met my witch? She seven sorts of amazing. And she has abs." Bellatrix says grinning lightly and lifting Hermione's shirt not for the first time. Only for Hermione to wince and grunt lightly when the flat of a hand smacks her soft abdomen causing quite the sting.
"If magic fails just punch them, eh Granger?" Lucius was there grinning. Only for a moment before he was yelping and flinching away from the pair.
"Belle." Hermione admonished only gently as she looked at the witch who now had her wand drawn on Lucius as she prolonged a stinging hex on the twitching man.
"Don't touch my witch." Bellatrix snarked releasing the current of magic.
"Bella you're such a bitch." Lucius huffs out as the stinging fades.
"Don't forget it." Bellatrix smirked.
"Don't change." Hermione added looking at Bellatrix and kissing her on the cheek making Bellatrix blush and grin.
"You were kind of asking for it." Draco points out smirking at his fathers misfortune.
It was so odd to see but Lucius and Hermione seemed to get on so well. They antagonised each other for sure but Draco had caught them just the night before sitting in the drawing room of all places drinking fire whiskey and talking about Aconite farming. Draco had turned around and headed back upstairs to inform Bellatrix that Hermione and Lucius were chatting. Bella had been in the office working on plans for her new venture.
"You are meant to be on my side." Lucius huffs at his son.
"I'm on the side that is smart enough not to physically assault Hermione while Bellatrix is around… or at all. Honestly they're both better at magic than me and you put together. Its not my fault you're dumb." Draco points out only for Lucius to look affronted.
"Draco has a point dear." Narcissa looked at her husband amused.
"Wife." Lucius whined. Hermione snorted lightly and headed for the office, an amused Bellatrix following her.
When they appeared in London that afternoon in a small secluded little alleyway where they couldn't be seen they took a moment to collect themselves. After that they headed out towards the local library hand in hand. Bellatrix got a few looks from other people which she had worried would be because of the clear age difference between her and Hermione, not to mention the status of their relationship being rather obvious with the threaded fingers and the random cheek kisses a decidedly excited Hermione was offering.
What she hadn't expected though was the cat calls and comments from random middle aged men along the street. And they were definitely directed at her even though for a moment she had been convinced these gross old men were leering at her girlfriend. Hermione however didn't really appreciate the attention Bella was getting despite it partially being her fault. After all she had convinced Bella to let her transfigure her clothes into something a little more appropriate for the muggle world.
In keeping with her long sleeve preference Hermione had dressed Bellatrix in a silky medium grey dress shirt with the top three buttons open, a bra that accentuated the woman's cleavage, over the shirt was a rather tight vest shirt in black that showed off her hour glass figure nicely. For pants she had opted for tight black skinny jeans and in keeping with the heels Bella favoured she transfigured the boots into knee high dark tan heeled boots. All this done in front of Minerva who had been decidedly impressed with Hermione's flawless transfiguring which had included changing the composition of some clothing pieces.
Not that Hermione had paid any attention to the praise she had received. She did pay attention to the light stinging hex however when Minerva got tired of Hermione's staring at the eldest Black. Bellatrix had bristled a little that anyone should dare hex her witch but Hermione had just offered a slight wince followed by a sheepish apology. Minerva couldn't help but comment on 'hormonal teenagers' at which point Hermione asked if she could really be blamed. Bellatrix had blushed when Minerva agreed it was a good look on her.
Now, after having spoken with Minerva who was going to set up viewings for them for the properties that Bella and Hermione had decided they liked the most, they were heading for the library witch Hermione's expression growing darker with every comment. Bellatrix opened her mouth to tease the girl only to close it again in case Hermione do something drastic like transfigure her clothes into a Hessian sack or something there in the street.
"Though I wouldn't normally I figure we can probably just make copies of all the books we decide to take with us instead of signing up for a library card. It will save us having to come back." Hermione explained softly as they made their way into the building.
"There's a library in France, magical obviously, that I thought was massive. But this is ridiculous." Bellatrix looked around as they walked in.
"You're not wrong. I think its because without magic Muggles need more categories for knowledge." Hermione explained smiling she was happiest surrounded by books and it only thrilled her more that Bella was there.
"Mind I'd still love to see that library in France one day. Fleur told me about it when we were at Shell Cottage after the Manor." The younger witch added smiling.
"I'll take you one day." Bellatrix promised easily. When she was free to move around the world more easily and she could actually make plans for such things she'd happily show her witch some of the more magically based sites around the world.
Hermione smiled warmly at Bellatrix' promise before turning to find a librarian for help. A few minutes later they were in a secluded corner with books about psychology and even the history of it spread on a table. Bellatrix was magically copying the works while Hermione was shrinking them and putting them in her bag. It didn't take them more than half an hour to have most of the offered selection copied and packed away again.
"It's still a bit early for dinner. Would you like a snack?" Hermione asks as the pair made their way back out of the library.
"What did you have in mind?" Bellatrix asks smiling.
"I know a little café mum and dad took me too when I was 10. We could grab a coffee and something small." Hermione suggests and Bellatrix nods if only because she wanted to see something from Hermione's childhood.
They made their way along to the little alley they had come from and linked hands again. It took Hermione a moment to decide where to appear and only after a notice-me-not just in case. They disappeared and reappeared with an audible popping and Bellatrix looked around curiously. They were behind a set of buildings with a narrow street seeming to lead out onto the public streets. Hermione led them down to the street and then to their left. Café de Nata was on the corner and seemed quite popular.
Yet it wad the people that had Bellatrix' attention the most. There were a group of men a small ways down the street dressed in women's frock and… well they looked fabulous. But this was unusual even for muggles right? Except that apparently not because the boisterous men were very friendly and even the regular dressed men and women passing seemed all to happy to smile and wish them a good day. Their make up was bold and colourful and some of them had on wigs and Bellatrix found herself intensely curious.
Regardless she let Hermione lead her into the Café where they both ordered a small black coffee each and a strawberry Nata each. Bellatrix hadn't been anticipating the odd pastry to be as nice as it was though and even as she lacked a sweet tooth the pastry went down a treat as the pair moved slowly along the street. Then a boldly displayed building a ways down where the men now seemed to he lingering caught Bellatrix' eye. She stared for a moment before looking at Hermione curious.
"Your parents bought you here when you were so young?" Bellatrix asks after a moment and Hermione nodded.
"It's not just a gay community. This whole area is really inclusive and the people are usually always so nice. I wasn't popular in elementary school, in fact I was really unpopular as I was an over achiever and I didn't have any friends. My parents bought me here to explore one day. Not really for any other reason than because the people were so nice and I was a book worm but I still liked bright colours and this place is rife with it all. More so now than it had been almost a decade ago." Hermione explains with a half shrug.
"These clubs and bars are really only growing in popularity with both the LGBT community and its allies. I'd be interested in coming one night and letting lose a little but without friends who would be into it at all I find the whole idea a little intimidating." Hermione confessed lightly.
"We'll come one night. There's nothing like this in the magical world and frankly it feels…" Bellatrix trailed off not sure what to say then, unsure of the right word.
"Accepting?" Hermione smiles lightly and Bellatrix nodded returning the smile.
"That's exactly what it feels like." The Older witch smiled fondly
"What's an Ann Summers?" Hermione quirked an eyebrow at this question but answered anyways.
"It's a lingerie store." The smaller witch didn't even blush not even when Bella's smile morphed into a grin.
"Fine." Hermione answered before Bellatrix could even ask and suddenly she was being dragged into the store.
Hermione was still flushed when they arrived at the Weasleys home. She swallowed in a breath of the fresh cooling air before they approached the building having come from Soho directly to Ottery St Catchpole. Bellatrix was still grinning at how flustered Hermione had become at the lingerie store. Needless to say with what limited Muggle Money Hermione had available to them Bellatrix had insisted on the young woman buying a dark red lacy lingerie set that Bellatrix was convinced would look amazing on the young woman. Hermione quickly realised that no matter how uncomfortable she was she'd give Bella anything she asked for.
"Hermione! Oh it's so good to see you. And you too. Come in dears." Molly had met them at the back door.
"Hermione dear you look flushed are you alright?" Of course Molly would point that out.
"She's fine. I took her shopping." Bellatrix actually had to suck on her own lips here.
"I took Bella to Muggle London." Hermione cut in before Molly could think too much on that.
"That would explain your getup. I must admit you cut a striking figure in that Bellatrix… it suits you." Molly looked from Hermione to Bellatrix and Hermione felt better seeing the blush come to Bella's cheeks at the compliment.
"I may have to adjust my wardrobe clearly. This one can't keep her eyes off of me." Bella looped an arm around Hermione pulling her into her side.
"It's your arse." Hermione confessed boldly and Molly chuckled at the exchange.
"Ginny's in the den with Luna if you want to go through I'm just getting the food started." Molly speaks up a moment later drawing the attention of the witches back to her.
"Thanks Molly, I might get a cup of water first though." Hermione smiles gently and nods at Bellatrix when the older witch gave a gentle look and stepped towards the den. Molly didn't mind of course.
Next Chapter is obviously some more of the Weasley clan and such but i'm a jerk so i cut it off here. Also next chapter may earn its M Rating =D
