Hermione shook Harry's arm of her own and narrowed her eyes at Ron then spoke in a low menacing tone that made everyone back away from the table a little ''YOU better take that back Ronald Weasley, YOU BETTER TAKE THAT BACK RIGHT NOW! I am no bodies property I do not belong to anyone especially you. I told you to leave my kids out of this I have told you Harry is my brother and Godfather and Uncle to both my children I do not know who the father is, I was blindfolded, I have no idea who they were I would not lie about something like this it's just sick, so you are going to sit down, and shut that mouth of yours because I will not hesitate to hex you or even use an unforgivable on you right now, I would gladly to time in Azkaban for my children, they would be looked after Harry would care for them I will do anything for my children I will KILL for them if I have to so do not test me on this I am usually calm but when you bring my kids into this you are signing your own death warrant, that goes for anyone who tries to hurt my kids they will live to regret it, as for me and you it is never going to happen, never ever, I could never love you, I care for you and love you like a brother and best friend well used to but that is all, you are to childish and jealous for me.''
Hermione closed her eyes once before opening them again ''So get this into that thick head WE ARE NEVER EVER GOING TO BE TOGETHER, I DONT' EVEN LIKE YOU RIGHT NOW AND I WOULDNT' CALL YOU A FREIND RIGHT NOW EITHER so just sit down and shut up, do NOT push me Ronald I am in no mood I am stressed and emotionally drained this has been the hardest thing for me to do, to tell everyone the truth.''
Hermione stood there and began moving her fingers she focussed on Ron pinning him with a glare she watched in satisfaction as Ron's hair went half green half sliver she watched as his body turned into the colours of Huffle Puff, Ravenclaw and Gryffindor it was a brilliant bit of art and she made the word Prick that was on his forehead in a big neon pink colour she nodded in satisfaction.
Ron looked to have been put in his place he wouldn't admit it but she was scaring him right at this moment in time he was beginning to regret his comments he knew she would follow through on her threats he gulped and paled at every word she spoke he shivered and had Goosebumps forming on his arms when he noticed that everyone else looked to be scared and shivered occasionally as well.
Especially when she said about him imagining that it was his brothers or sister dying and in pain and he did and it caused him to shiver again he didn't like that idea but he would not back down he wanted Hermione he would have her one way or another. And it was her kids so it didn't matter his brother's and sisters were perfectly fine. But he was pulled out of his thoughts by people snickering and both Fred and George pointing and laughing at him.
Everyone in the room began to shiver and felt Goosebumps on them as Hermione spoke in that threatening tone they all knew she was beyond angry she was pissed her magic was rolling off her in waves and was powerful they had not felt her magic that out of control or angry before not even in the war when it was pretty bad and when they noticed the evil smirk on her face they shivered again it was worse than Voldemort's smirk when they noticed Ron's change they all began to let little chuckles and coughs out while Fred and George out right laughed and pointed at him ''That is brilliant oh I feel sorry for you when you have to go out in public and people see you that is wicked Mione''
''Yes Fred our brother is looking pretty colourful'' Fred said looking at his brother smiling and winking at Hermione ''You'll have to tell me what that charm is sometime''
Minerva and Albus sat there with wide eyes Albus choked on a lemon drop and began to cough while Minerva patted his back he had been going to laugh and choked his eyes were shining with mirth he knew Minerva was trying to contain her laughter as well, yes Hermione was pretty creative with her hexes he had learnt that when Marietta Edgecombe came to him pleading with him to remove the charm but he did not know how then either it truly was an amazing bit of spell work.
Ron watched as his brothers conjured a mirror he looked at himself in shock ''WHAT THE BLOODY HELL DID YOU DO! CHANGE ME BACK RIGHT NOW I MEAN IT MIONE.''
Hermione shook her head ''Oh I'm sorry Ronald I forgot to say it's permanent and will stay like that for four weeks, I believe I may have mixed up the length of time that I originally planned when I hexed you my bad. Never mind though you have to admit it is a good improvement I am glad to see you finally supporting the other houses you are showing proper house unity you should be proud especially Slytherin I am very impressed that you are supporting them and showing this by wearing there colours.'' Hermione said in a not so sorry tone of voice.
Ron was outraged when he looked at himself again the worst part was the word Prick on his head and in pink ''YOU CAN'T DO THAT!'' He turned to look at the headmaster and could see the mirth and amusement shining in his eyes he wasn't even hiding it ''Please Headmaster surely you can remove this hex and the words or make her remove it'' he said pleading
Albus was amused ''No can do Mr Weasley as Hermione has clearly stated it is not removable and has a time period on it looks like you will just have to wait for it to ware off Hermione's' hexes are not breakable I don't' know how she does it but I am sure you remember Marietta in your fifth year I couldn't undo that either so she now has to wear a permanent glamour, I must say you look good in Slytherin colours if I do say so myself and I am sure others will follow your lead.'' he did not sound sorry at all.
Ron looked worried he felt his face go red from embarrassment but what made him really angry was that Snape was actually smirking at him he debated on asking Snape to remove it and figured it was worth a try ''Snape can you remove it''
Severus smirked ''Even if I could I would not. I like it the headmaster is right it suits you and personally you got of lightly Hermione could have done a lot worse''
Ron looked around and saw that everyone was laughing or pointing at him he knew he wasn't getting any support not even from his own siblings or parents he noticed that his sister had slipped out of the room so he just stormed out of the kitchen and up to his room.
Hermione stood there frozen to the spot where she was standing moments ago arguing with Ron. She couldn't believe him nor what she had heard. Hermione began to focus on calming her magic down, this was exactly what she wanted to avoid it is going to be hell bringing the kids here when Ron is like he is the kids will pick up on the angry atmosphere whenever Ron is about or near her or them and she knew her kids would pick up on her anger and sadness that was one thing that irritated her about her children being so perceptive.
She couldn't believe that she had just lost her friend of almost nine years just by him saying what he did but no he had said those things which has now severed all ties and any chance of her forgiving or becoming friends with him again. It made her sad as well as angry she looked over at Harry and saw his eyes looked angry, sad and concerned she also noticed that everyone else looked the same she shook her head and looked at Harry ''Harry, I am so sorry you were dragged into this and now you might have lost your best friend of almost nine years because of me''
Harry shook his head ''No Mione don't' you ever be sorry he said those things not you. He chose to act like he did, I love you Mione you and the kids your my life, my family my reason for living and my strength and determination that I needed to kill Voldemort so we could live as a happy family. I love Ron he was my first friend we have all been through a lot together the three of us, but he chose to turn his back on almost nine years of friendship not us, and I wont have him bad mouthing my sister nor my niece or Nephew.''
That did it for Hermione she totally broke down and collapsed into his arms ''S..she's going to die Harry, Mat..Matthew can feel her leaving him, it's all my fault Ron was right I have failed them as a Mother I am hardly there I only see them at the holidays I shouldn't be a mother It's my fault, that my little angel will never receive her wand or attend Hogwarts.''
Hermione buried her face into his chest and cried ''I'm never going to see her grow up, get married and have children how am I and Matthew going to go on, Poor Matthew will be broken''
Harry was crying as well and held Hermione close ''I know, I know I wont' be able to scare her boyfriends off either, but you can't blame yourself, you are a brilliant mother, they love you and you love them, we will get through this when the time comes, me you and Matthew we will make it, we have come this far and survived so much we can survive this, Merlin is one lucky bastard he is gaining an amazing angel a limited edition one since there will be no other angel that shines so bright other than our Lyra and he knows this, that is why I think he wants her he is in need of such a beautiful angel.''
Hermione nodded ''I know, but I don't' want him to have her,. I want her she's mine. I carried her, I gave birth to her, I held her while she cried and I read to her as well as played she is mine not his. Hermione choked out another sob as she continued ''I don't' want to share her. Why choose her she's innocent she hasn't done anything wrong she doesn't need to go so soon not ever she belongs here with us with people who love her more than anything, I would give my life for her but I can't he wants her and he is going to take her Harry he's going to take my little girl''
Harry and Hermione continued to cry and he held her close trying to sooth her he looked over and saw almost everyone in the room in tears ''Mione, calm down, it's not going to happen yet we have time, we can make it fun for her let her enjoy the magical world it's Christmas soon and we will be together and then we will be with them constantly like you should have been.''
Hermione finally composed herself and pulled herself together ''Yeah, your right'' she got up and sat on the chair she looked around ''S..Sorry you had to see that I usually have more control over my emotions'' she looked at Harry ''This is what I wanted to avoid Harry the kids will pick up on the atmosphere from Ron they don't' need it nor do they deserve it Matthew Is protective of me and Lyra as it is and that's without seeing me upset.''
Harry shook his head and his eyes narrowed ''No Ronald will not cause any problems. The kids wont pick up on any bad atmosphere because there wont be any. I meant what I said earlier Mione if he or anyone else don't' like it they can get out of our home. He will keep a civil tongue when around us or the kids so they will not pick up on any atmosphere or feelings otherwise he will be out quicker than you can say Quidditch. He is a guest as are everyone else in our home excluding me, you and the kids of course''
Hermione nodded in understanding ''It's really happening isn't it.''
''Yes it is happening and we will be alright we'll get through this I promise ''Harry dropped a kiss on top of Hermione's curly hair
Hermione nodded ''It just seems so real, now that everyone else knows about them and her illness its become reality I can no longer pretend'' Hermione closed her eyes tight to stop the tears from falling
Harry just placed a hand on her shoulder in silent support he knew what she was feeling because he was feeling it too.
Hermione looked over the other side of the table ''Molly I am sorry about Ron but I cannot remove my creation I wasn't lying it will wear off in four weeks time I only hope you can forgive me but he made me so mad and if I hadn't done that I was afraid I may have done something worse.'' she looked at the others ''And I am sorry for the way I acted. I acted very immature I hate loosing control like that''
Everyone shook there heads but they were shocked when Severus was the one to speak ''No Hermione I think you handled that really well like you said you could have done something much worse but you never, and after what you have been through just now I would be surprised if you never lost your composure for a moment, but you are strong to have lasted this long without anyone knowing so I think you acted very, very mature in this situation well all of it, you should not have gone through something like that. You have just proven how grown up, powerful and mature you really are'' he finished talking and could see he shocked everyone
Hermione smiled at him ''Thank you Severus, you don't know what that means to hear something like that, so thank you.'' and she gave him a genuine smile this time
Remus smiled ''Severus is right, you should be proud as I am with you, and I am glad to have known someone so powerful, intelligent, caring and friendly as you and I hope you will allow me to support you'
Hermione walked around and hugged the older man ''Thank you so much Remus. That means a lot, and I would be happy to have your support and I know the kids want to meet you.''
She stood back and beamed at everyone ''I have told my kids along with Harry about all of you and what your like and they can't wait to meet you they always ask, even you Severus with your wit and sarcasm in fact Matthew seems to like the idea of you scaring the other children. I think he wants to be in Slytherin and the way he is I must admit that I wouldn't be surprised if did he does have a lot of Slytherin tendencies, as well as Ravenclaw and Gryffindor thank god he has very little Huffle Puff in him, not that I would be disappointed if he ended up in that house of course.''
Everyone chuckled at Hermione but it was Tonks who spoke this time. ''Well I am glad, considering I was in Huffle Puff and I turned out ok and cool.'' she fake pouted and smiled again ''Now I can't wait to meet the devils I think It is amusing that both the children are intelligent and clever it must be in your families genes.''
Hermione and Harry as well as the others laughed at Tonks she was a strange one but you couldn't help but love her.
Molly and Arthur joined in the fun when Arthur cleared his throat ''Hermione I am sorry for Ronald and the way he spoke to you and about your children just then, I am appalled and I never have been so disappointed in my children until now. I want you to know that things wont be awkward for you nor those children I will be having words with him later he cannot speak to people like that you stood by him since you were eleven and he turns on you both like that.''
Arthur shook his head ''It's unacceptable I never brought my children up like that I don't know where we could have gone wrong with him. But I hope that you wont hate us or the rest for Ronald's problem. I look to you and Harry as my children and I will not allow my son ruin that.''
Hermione smiled at Arthur and the other Weasley's ''I do not hate any of you. Hate is a strong word I don't think I can even truly hare Ronald although at this in moment in time I could hate him with a passion but like I said it is such a powerful and strong word you have nothing to be sorry for none of you and you are all important to me also.''
She turned to look at the twins with a smile ''Boys I know that both Matthew and Lyra enjoy pranks Matthew fancy's himself a little joker and prankster, Lyra likes to prank occasionally but I warn you now I know they will be happy to be around you but I am telling you don't' get teaching them to much or many pranks they can be sneaky enough and cunning enough without your encouragements''
Fred and George both grinned at each other ''Wicked'' making everyone laugh ''So Mione what things do they both like to do''
''Well Matthew likes pranks and Quidditch although he likes learning, brewing and reading as well. Lyra likes to watch a game of Quidditch but she isn't as into it like Matthew thank Merlin I mean having Harry and Matthew talking about it is enough to send me mad''
She said chuckling ''Lyra is very creative and has a great imagination and could probably come up with new pranks for your joke shop, she likes to prank as well and fly a broom but she likes her books more and reading like me she isn't all innocent either, she could be in any house like Matthew. They are both intelligent and absorb information like a sponge they both have brilliant memories better than me I think. Matthew has photographic memory so if he doesn't remember something he learnt or read he can just picture it like an album and get his answer.''
Hermione smiled ''I can do that but I am not as strong as he is he told me it's like taking a picture with a camera and all he has to do is pull out the photo he wants so as he is reading he is taking little pictures each time he can store loads. Lyra can do photographic memory as well but she is more like me she can just remember and pull things to the front of her mind when she needs it she is a little stronger at using photographic memory than I am but Matthew is the best at it he prefers that way he isn't strong doing it our way''
Everyone was stunned at what they heard but chuckled and Albus smiled ''interesting so they really are like you all over again, it will be like teaching you all over again, I am curious I wonder if he will beat your marks or match them.''
Harry laughed ''Well I know Matthew thinks Divination is rubbish and stupid just like Mione but he is wicked at potions they both are Mione teaches them on occasion and allows them to help. Although Matthew likes potions I am not sure what he wants to be when he is older, but I know he will be a hard worker and dedicated to his work and top of his class just he will have a little more fun than Mione used to have'' he laughed when Hermione shot him a glare which caused everyone else to laugh.
Harry, Hermione and the others continued talking about different things mostly about the kids. Molly made them all tea except Severus and Hermione they had coffee and they all continued to listen to the stories both he and Hermione would tell them. They all talked into the evening until they broke away to head to their rooms for the night.
