Chapter Three
Newt stood nervously outside Professor Dumbledore's classroom. He was waiting for class to end so he could talk to the Professor. Leta had finally convinced him to come for tea so he could talk about his problems. It was either this or Leta said she was gonna give Thesus a matching black eye that he gave Newt. Newt didnt know how to glamour it but he did have Leta apply makeup and was hoping to ask Dumbledore how to glamour. Finally class let out and Newt slowly walked in. Dumbledore smiled at him then it fell.
"Mr. Scamander, what happened?" Newt looked very worried and like he was ready to bolt. "You have nothing to fear, i just noticed the makeup on you eye. Do you care if I remove it?"
"N-n-no sir, you can r-re-remove i-it," Newt stuttered out.
With a wave of his wand the makeup was gone. Albus gasped, Newt's eye was an angry purple, blue and black color. Newt was staring at the floor ashamed, he felt he should not have come. He was going to get Thesus in trouble.
"Would you like a cup of tea, Mr. Scamander?" Newt nodded and was led to the back office where Albus made tea and poured him and Newt a cup. "Do you wanna tell me where you got the black eye?"
"N-no s-sir."
Albus sighed, "You don't have to be afraid! Im not going to tell, nor will I punish the person your protecting. I have a feeling your protecting your brother am I correct?" Newt looked panicked. "Relax, Mr. Scamander I will not say anything if you do not wish me to!""
"Please don't! If Thesus finds out he will make this black eye seem like a flick!"
Albus noted Newts severe fear of his brother but smiled, "I will not say a word. Tell me, why does your brother do these things?"
Newt hung his head, "Ever since our dad left. Thesus says I'm to blame. Mom said that dad left because he was scared."
Albus looked confused, "Of what?"
"He was scared that my mother gave me up because someone dangerous was my father. My mom never told him who my birth mother was, but when he found out he freaked out and told mom to give me back that i was putting everyone in the family in danger. Mom refused and he left, qhen i asked who my birth mother was she said he wished to remain annoymus but he loved me very much! But I don't think she was right."
"Why do you think that?"
"Because if the wizard who gave birth to me gave me up, I think he couldnt stand the sight of me. That he must of been happy to get rid of me!" Newt had a very sad look on his face.
Albus cleared his throat trying his best to hide his emotions, "Why do you think that?"
"Thesus said it. Said mom lied to make me feel better that she told him not to tell me the truth!"
Albus felt his anger rising, "Newton, I'm positive your brother said that just to hurt you! He is upset that your father left and blames yoj, which it is not your fault. Your mother should have told him, but if he truly loved you he would not have left! Im sure your birth mother loved you, he probably could not take care of you properly and figured it was best to give you to a loving family."
Newt looked at Albus with watery eyes, "Do you really think so?"
"Of course! Now I hate to cut this short but I have a class in ten minutes. I hope you will come back for tead tomorrow and we can talk more." Newt nodded and promised to be back tomorrow.
Albus felt anger toward the Scamander family for making Newt feel this way. He wanted to tell Newt right then and there that he was his mother, that he loved so much. It took everything in him to keep a neutral face and keep himself composed. He needed to speak with Dippet again. But this time he also wanted to speak with Mrs. Scamnder.

One Week Later, in the Headmasters office*
Albus stood nervously awaiting Mrs. Scamander. the week before Albus had told the headmaster he wished to speak with her about telling Newt the truth. Everyday of that week Newt had come by for tea and told him of the notes he took about creature and his dreams of protecting them. Albus felt some pride that his son wanted to help misunderstood creatures. He was interupted from his thoughts as the headmaster walked in with a middle aged woman.
"Albus, I'd like you to meet Elsa Scamander. Elsa this is Albus Dumble dore."
Albus smiled, "Thank you Armando, and thank you for meeting with me Mrs. Scamander!"
Elsa smiled, "Please call me Elsa! The pleasure is all mine, its great to meet the man who gave me such a wonderful son. I understand you wanted to speak with me about him."
Albus nodded, "Yes, please sit down!" Elsa took a seat and Albus sat in front of her as the headmaster excused himself. "I understand Newt knows hes adopted."
Elsa smiled, "Yes, i had planned to tell him when he was older but my husband yelled it out during a fight between us when he left! But I repected why you gave him up, so i did not tell him who ypu are."
"Does he want to meet his birth mother?" Albust hesitently asked.
Elsa nodded, "Yes, well he did! I think Thesus, his older brother, said something mean that made him afraid to. Was you wanting to tell him?"
Albus thought for a moment, "I was wanting to, yes. But i can not do it outside of the school for if his father were to find out about him it could be dangerous!"
Elsa nodded, "I do have a question, is his fater Gellert Grindlewald? I assure you i will love and care for him no matter what but i want to know."
Albus nodded, "He is the man who got me pregnant but, he does not know. I would rather not tell Newt."
"Of course! If you dont mind, we can tell him tonight. We can see if the headmaster will arrange a meal for us 3 and tell him at dinner."
Albus nodded, feeling really nervous about telling Newt. But he wanted his son to know he cared and wanted to be in his life!

Later that night*
Newt sat at a table with his mother and Professor Dumbledore. He was not sure why they were there, he had hoped Professor Dumbledore had not told his mom was Thesus had done. Both the Professor and his mom looked very nervous which in turn made him extra nervous.
"Newt, sweety Professor Dumbledore and i have something very important to tell you! Professor would you like to tell him?"
Albus sat straight up, "Newt, there is no easy way to say this. I am your birth mother."
Newt stared at Albus for a few minutes in shock, "What? How? Why?"
Albus looked at him for a minute, "I am your birth mother, your father and I did something and i got pregnant with you. As to why, some wizards can get pregnant."
Newt looked frustrated, "No, why did you give me up? Didn't you want me?"
Albus gave a sad smile, "Newt, i wanted nothing more than to keep you! But the circumstances were very dangerous. Know i have loved ypu since the day you were born and have never stopped."
"Newt, I know this is a lot to take in, but Albus really wants to be part of your life. Can you give him a chance?"
Newt seemed to be thinking it over, "But why now?"
Albus sighed, "Because I could not see you outside of this school. If i were to be seen with you someone very dangerous would use you against me."
"My father?"
Albus thought for a moment, "No. This someone is beyond dangerous and is not your father."
Elsa looked at Dumbledore not believing he was lying. But one look in his eyes told her he was not. She wondered who would be worse than Grindlewald. The rest of dinner went good and Newt agreed to afternoon tea with Albus so they could get to know each other. Once Newt was out of the room Elsa looked at Albus very seriously.
"Who else would use Newt against you?" Albus looked confused. I thought because his father was Gellert Grindelwald he would be the only one, but there has to be someone else because your eyes said you were telling the truth!"
"Gellert is the only one who would! But I do not consider Gellert Newts father. I will not allow Gellert that luxary!"
