Chapter 25: Guardian Angel
Hermione felt so good in town. It had become a place she considered her home now, much more than where she had grown up. This was a sad truth for the young woman who had almost no contact with her adoptive parents. She had called them once or twice but nothing concrete, nothing for more than five minutes. They were not trying to learn more about the new life Hermione was building, and Hermione was not trying to give them more information than that. She had managed to have some time alone, so she took the opportunity to join Robin in the woods.
Not daring to come so close to the camp, Hermione watched from afar the hustle and bustle of it. She could see Robin playing with Roland, the young Gryffindor immediately thought of Regina. Although she had only one child in a natural way, she had the chance to have two sons: Henry and Roland. There was no doubt that the family could grow soon and the young woman was happy in advance.
"Uh Hermione! What gives me the pleasure to see you?" Started Robin. "Do you want to take care a minute or two of Roland? The time I settle one or two things and I am yours."
The witch nodded with a smile still present. She enjoyed for ten minutes the one who was already her little brother in her eyes. Hermione loved this new role. It is true that she was already a big sister to Harry and Ron, but more in terms of their studies. But there, it was enjoy seeing a smiling little boy amazed by everything around him. Robin noticed immediately the alchemy present between his son and Hermione, he was happy that all his little family is put in place. He confided Roland to Little John before joining the young woman.
"Sorry for the wait. So, you wanted to talk to me, is that right?"
"Yes, it is in connection with the letter that you made me transmit via my suitcase. Between classes and trials at Hogwarts, I managed to find something to make a potion. A teacher helped me make it to maximize the chances that it would work."
"You are serious? Are you telling me that you have really found a way to cure your mother's infertility?"
"Totally. I even have enough to make a second potion if the first one did not manage to survive to the trip."
Robin took her in his arms in a burst of joy and happiness. He had not imagined good news of this kind so quickly. He was sure that Hermione would find a cure. Yet he thought it would take months, if not years. This young woman had definitely become their guardian angel. For her part, Hermione was enjoying this moment, her own father had not taken her in his arms since the arrival of the letter to Hogwarts. It was so good for her to finally feel at home with her, for so many years she had envied the Weasley's relationship.
"Do you prefer that I engage the subject with mom or you will do it?"
Robin waved an even bigger smile, which did not seem possible, hearing Hermione say the simple word "Mom".
"It was you who did this miracle so I let you tell her the good news, but you can say that the initiative was mine if she is afraid of my reaction."
Hermione nodded before joining Henry for the rest of the day. They had rendezvous on the beach to continue discussing everything and nothing. Henry liked the company of the young woman and she gave him back, demonstrating an already strong bond between the two teenagers.
"How are the classes at Hogwarts, telling me? Finally, I mean, how many years? How are evaluations?"
"It's seven years. Ratings range from O for Outstanding to T for Troll."
This last remark made the young man laugh. He who was used to a notation in A + and others, he would have liked to see this little touch of fantasy. Although having a T would have surely depressed him.
"You know, I started in muggle schools, without magic before being accepted to Hogwarts. Unlike those from totally witch families, I had to deal with this whole way of life."
Henry asked her if she had finally mastered the magic that came from her mother. Proud of some training she had done with Regina, Hermione managed to show her a little ball of energy that she was now able to create. The former Queen had been pleasantly surprised to see how easily her daughter had managed to adapt. Hermione was eager to show Harry, Ron, and Ginny her progress without being in a hurry to return to Hogwarts. It was paradoxical, but she would have liked to have them here to be totally fulfilled.
They continued talking, walking side by side in the sand without really taking the time to look at the time. They had found in the other an attentive ear, but also the same desire to share all the knowledge that everyone had. So absorbed in their discussion, they did not see Emma and Regina in the distance, both walking to discuss Ursula and Cruella.
"They have the same things in common, as far as I can see. They are already close to each other." Exclaims Emma.
"Yes, Robin even thinks that something might happen between them. But they are so young and are brother and sister..."
"For the last point, I do not agree with you. They do not have the same blood and have not been raised together. And then, nothing says that something will happen tomorrow, but they are 14 years old not 5, Regina."
They laughed together. It was not something usual between the two women, yet it was so good to care only about their children, even if the two witches in town could soon change all that. It was also necessary to take into account that the third test of Hogwarts approached and Regina had a knot in the stomach, without knowing why. She foresaw a near misfortune.
