This is a story of the twin daughters Draco Malfoy had with Elizabeth Hathaway formerly Finnigan in my first fan fic Only Forgiveness.

Indigo and Imelda are aged 12 and this is there journey through school from there second year there friends with James Potter in there year and this is when they meet Rose, Albus, Scorpius in there first and Fred and George Jr in there third, right up to there years after school


Chapter one
Returning to School

“Indigo, Imelda are you two ready yet” Yelled there mother up the stairs. “Yes mother” they Replied simultaneously from there separate rooms. “Then hurry up and come down, were late all ready”.

***

Elizabeth Hathaway and her twin daughters Indigo and Imelda (Indie and Mel) live in the middle of England on the outskirts of Coventry. Moving from Hogsmeade at the age of three they grew up surrounded by magic though living in a mainly muggle area. But in this small village a group of wizards and witches alike had created a settlement secure and hidden from the muggle world creating a magical haven for the youngsters to grow up in.
At the age of eleven they had received there letters to Hogwarts and now a year later were setting off for there second year, not knowing what surprises they might uncover. They had never known there fathers name, never told of his existence until they met his only son on the Hogwarts express.
The twin’s alike in appearance but not in mind, while Imelda was more the brawn and Indigo the brains of any operation they both ended up in Gryffindor. Indie set on being a Healer and Mel destined to be an Auror they strived for top marks impressing teachers with both there intellect and ability to cause trouble.
***
Sharing an appearance was fun sometimes and it was easy to trick there mother since there was no one else to say any different. They shared the long black straight hair of there mother, the handsome features of there maternal grandmother and only the pale grey eyes of there father.
“Indie” Called Mel from her room next door “Have you seen my blue hoodie?”
“No” came a muffled reply as indie pulled her own black one over her head.
“Now, girls!”
“Coming” they both shouted grabbing there trunks and owls and pulling them down the stairs. Indie’s brown barn owl hooted as they reached the bottom of the stairs and the cage slipped from her grasp. “Be careful with your owl Imelda, and hurry up and get them outside”
“Im Indie, look black hoodie”
“Stop complaining and get your trunk outside Imelda”
“But - “
“But nothing, go” She pointed to the door
“Ok” she locked the door with her wand and placed her cloak around her more comfortably, “Imelda, we’ll go first, you are to stay in the alley until I come back with Indigo” Indie and Mel smiled at her mistake “Come on then” Elizabeth held the trunk holding her wand in the same hand and put out her other for Indigo to hold. They apparated, leaving Imelda standing there, she took her backpack off and then began to rifle through the pockets until she found it. Her blue hoodie had been hidden in there since last year when her mother had put an enlargement charm on her bag making it bigger on the inside. She shook it off smiled and placed it over her head just as her mother reappeared. “What’s that smell?” As her mother crinkled her nose “Nothing mum, just a dung bomb I found on the floor”
“Hmm, lets go” She put out her hand and her daughter grasped it while clutching her owl in the other.

They stepped on the train, watching James Potter tease his younger brother out of the window and comment on Teddy Lupin and Victoire Weasley when they saw him. He was a first year, small and blonde with cold grey eyes. He hugged his mother and father and stepped on board. The twins sat down in a compartment with the window open, there mother had left already and began to talk when they heard a knock on the door. It was James joined by his younger brother, another girl with mousey brown hair and his best friend Kaleb Forster.
“Indie, Mel” He smiled “This is my little brother Albus and my cousin Rose”
“Hello” they said together
“Do you always reply the same?” Said Albus shyly
“Yes” They grinned
James smiled as he sat next to Indie. His friend sat himself beside Imelda leaving Rose and Albus standing awkwardly in the doorway.
Indigo spoke first “Why don’t you too come in and join us instead of standing in the way”
“No thankyou” Replied Rose our stuffs next door with James and Kaleb’s we’ll just sit in there, were meeting Roman Thomas and some others in a minute”
“Ok” smiled Mel, “We’ll see you guys later then” As they left closing the door behind them. “Your little brother’s so cute” Giggled Indie, “I bet they’ll both be in Gryffindor with us” The train began to move and the people on the platform began to blur and disappear.
“If not I’m disowning him” Laughed James
“That’s not nice” Said Mel throwing a chocolate frog at James’s head. “He’s family you can’t”
“He will, if he ends up in Slytherin with the Malfoy kid” Said Kaleb his mouth already full of chocolate as the train sped onwards.
“Malfoy kid, what’s wrong with the Malfoy’s?” Said Indigo, she ignored James stare of shock. “You don’t know! They were some of the supporters of voldemort when he was really powerful, there dark wizards the lot of them”
“Oh but he’s gone now, thanks to your dad” She nudged him in the ribs “So they can’t be that bad?”
“He looked about as friendly as a scorpion and with a name like Scorpius you can guess why” Said Kaleb as he fed some ham sandwich to Indie’s and Mel’s owls.
“Hmm” said Indie vaguely “But what about the headmistress, surely Professor Tibet wouldn’t allow them in if they where that bad”
“From what I’ve been told about them they where pretty bad and plus my parents, Aunt and Uncles have told me all about what Scorpius’s dad was like at school” Said James seriously “Just you wait he’ll be in Slytherin”
“Not all Slytherin’s are bad; the same as not all Hufflepuff’s are stupid” Said Mel indignantly “Look at Casey Thorpe, She’s normal and nice and doesn’t hunt muggles”
“One of a few, a Malfoy’s not one of them”
“Let’s just wait and see” Smiled Mel
“Where’s every one else in our year?” Said Indie just as there was a knock on the glass and smiling faces appeared.
“Hello you guys” as three Gryffindor girls walked into the compartment. Fiona Jackson, Kathryn Bennet, and Rebecca Havisham squeezed in on the seats and began to ask them all questions about there summer. The two boys got fed up surrounded by giggling and moved next door with Rose, Albus, Roman and another first year, a girl by the name of Dawn Jacobs.
They chatted and changed into robes when the castle came into view. Grabbing there trunks and owls and leaving them at the station to get on the carriages the twins found themselves with two red headed boys who where in there third year. They recognised them as Gryffindor’s and James’ other cousins, Fred and George, said hello and made small talk with them all the way up to the castle.

A Sequel...

Chapter two
Out with the old in with the new

The sorting ceremony began as any other. Professor Longbottom carried the stool and hat in front of the teachers table and then to everyone it sang before the students were called up. “There so small” Smiled Indigo to her sister, “the hat looks so different from here” She replied. James and Kaleb were seated next to them with the other second years as everyone stared at the hat.
“Dawn Jacobs” became the first Gryffindor to the delight of Rose and the whole table
“Roman Thomas” The first Ravenclaw.
“Helen Bradley” a Hufflepuff
“Rose Weasley” Gryffindor James, Kaleb, Indie and Mel clapped loudly.
“Scorpius Malfoy” The first Slytherin, they banged there goblets on the table.
“Albus Potter” The crowd went quiet just as it had done for Harry, and more recently James the year before. Where was the son of Harry Potter to go “Gryffindor” James clapped proudly “I told you” Indie whispered in his ear. The rest of the ceremony was forgotten as the other first years joined the house tables and the food conjured from the kitchen.
They walked up to the common room tired and full of delicious food, the professor had reminded them all about the forbidden forest and the new addition to the teaching staff for history of magic as professor Binns had finally decided to spend the his time on earth no longer as a teacher and move on to the other side . James and Kaleb joined the three other boys in there year and went up to there dormitory while the five girls went up the stairs to the left to there dorms. Indie and Mel lay awake hearing the sound of the other girls as they drifted off into a peaceful sleep waiting for to tomorrow.

****

“Urrggg” said James sitting next to them at the table “We have history of magic double first, then potions double, both with the Slytherin’s, this has got to be one of the worst Mondays ever”
Kaleb grinned and sat next to him “Oh well, we have a new history teacher remember he doesn’t look that bad” A wizard in his early thirties sat at the teachers table deep in conversation with Professor Longbottom while sipping orange juice. His head turned as he felt four students stare at him. Smiling at them his bright blue eyes glinted in the sun as he turned back and continued his conversation. The twins and two boys looked away quickly “See not that bad” Giggled Mel “He doesn’t look like he knows much about history” Said Indie sceptically “He looks to young” James and Kaleb look at her laughing “that’s because he’s not a ghost!”

The four of them stepped into the classroom. It was light and breezy no longer dark and stuffy, and a large collection of books were on shelves along one wall. “Come in, come in” Smiled the new professor “Im Professor Jasper Anchorage” His eyes shined in the sun from the window his jet black hair in a neat ponytail down his back against navy blue robes.

The class filed in the room surprised at the difference. The twins, James and Kaleb sat on a table at the back while the professor spoke.
“Well hello all of you, now to start off im going to tell you a bit about my own history since I don’t look much like a history professor now do I” He smiled at the four on the back table and continued “I am a muggleborn wizard and at the age of eleven when I was told, I made it my job to find out everything possible about magic, including history, spells and famous wizarding inventions” He pointed to the wall covered in books and then sat down behind his desk. “I started just as you did last year and I hope you will continue. The history of magic is really a fascinating subject which covers a lot of ground from goblin rebellions right up to the defeat of Voldemort, and more recently the note that just passed from Miss Bennet to Miss Thorpe” The girls went red in the face, “Could you bring it here please?” Casey stood up and walked to his desk and handed it over. He pointed his wand at it as it burst into flames and incinerated into nothingness. “No more note passing please, its extremely rude” He watched her sit down before he began again. The lesson carried on until he began to write on the chalk board “what can you tell me about witch burnings in medieval times?”

Potion’s was better then usual to. There teacher had a different approach to Snape when he departed from the world nearly twenty years earlier and to Snape’s replacement who retired the year before. Students had been used to her by now. Professor Eva Lucas was not as intimidating as her predecessors though was very strict and punishments were harsh even for her own house of Slytherin. They all managed to make a passable potion and departed the classroom with relief heading to dinner.

“Phew” Said Indie sitting down next to her sister “She’s like mum when she forgets her coffee in the morning!”
Mel laughed “oh well, it’s over now and we don’t have it till Wednesday”
“Thankfully” said James, he, Kaleb and another second year boy called Francis joined them along with Kathryn.
“So what do you guys think of the new history teacher?” Asked Francis, “I met him in diagon alley getting my books”
“Seems nice enough” Replied Indie
“Though Kathryn and he had a bad start” Mel smiled at Kathryn as she made a funny face at her.
The twins as though sensing something at the same time both turned to watch as Scorpius Malfoy sat down at the Slytherin table. He seemed almost familiar to them and as the looked at him he noticed there stares and looked back his eyes grey and cold, his mouth in a disproving sneer and he stabbed the piece of meat on the plate savagely without looking away from them.
“There something odd about him” Said Mel to her sister, “Do you notice it too?”
“Yes” Indie replied “Though I don’t know what it is, he some how looks familiar like we’ve meet him before now”
“Who you two chatting about?” Smiled James, grabbing the jug of pumpkin juice
“The Malfoy boy” Said Mel,
“There’s something strange about him” said Indie
“Like what” Asked James
“He’s pure evil” smiled Kaleb.

****

Four days later, they sat in the common room talking after everyone else had gone to bed. Kaleb and James walking in smiling there arms filled with cakes and sweets. “Want some?” Said James, as he piled in on a table
“Where did you guy’s get them?” Asked Indie as she grasped a chocolate from the pile
“Who cares?” laughed Mel grabbing a cupcake and throwing it at her.
“What’s with you and throwing food, I’ve still got a bruise from that chocolate frog?” Grinned James, lobbing a cream cake at her face
“Oi!” Shouted Mel, she wiped the cream of with the sleeve of her robes and smeared it in Kaleb’s hair.
“What was that for?” He returned the favour pelting her with sweets as she hid behind the smallest couch.
“Indie duck” shouted Kaleb as James aimed a large chocolate cake in her direction. But before she could reply it stoped in mid air next to her nose and dropped to the floor when she let out a cry of surprise.
“What just happened, Indie?” asked Mel, as she peered out from behind the safety of the chocolate covered cushions. “You did something I felt It from behind here” Mel stood up and looked down at the chocolate cake splattered on the floor.
“I don’t know, I just…”
“You’re telekinetic” said a small high pitched voice from the stairs, as Rose walked down them “You stopped it with your mind”
Indie sat down looking at the floor “So do you think I can do it to?”Mel asked sitting beside her “yes, your twins, you share a bond in magic and life, like you do things at the same time with out it being on purpose” They looked at each other and then at her. James and Kaleb sat down opposite them mouths open in shock.

Rose continued to explain when she said something that made them think. “It’s usually genetic so your parents or grandparents could do it, but since your mums a muggleborn it must be from your dad’s side of the family”
“We don’t know who are dad is?” Said Indie
“We weren’t allowed to ask; we didn’t really want to know” Said Mel
“But this, changes things” Indie finished grimly.

well im going to post for the sake of posting later on since i have no knew readers yet ! hope that those who have read the first to chapters with out posting a reply liked them the story is going to get more exciting i promise !

Chapter Three
Who’s your Daddy?

The twins lay in there beds both staring at the ceilings unable to sleep for what they would have to do. They needed to find there father.
****
“I say we write to her and ask who the guy is” Smiled Mel “She’ll flip out, come and visit us and then we can ask her in person”
“I think, notice I think” Indie grinned at her sister “We should go back over the holidays at Christmas and ask her”
Mel stabbed a sausage with her fork “it gives us time to take these powers for a test drive”
“You haven’t even seen if you can do it yet, so if we show her she’s going to have to understand why we have to see him”
“Depends who he is and if he wants to see us”
“He has no choice, were his daughters whether he likes it or not” Indie angrily squirted the honey to hard and instead of going into her porridge the bottle shot into the air and hit James in the head at the end of the table. “Ouch! What the..!” He held his hand to his head and looked around for the culprit. Indie sat looking shock with her hand over her mouth “Sorry” she mumbled. “Indie” he got up and sat next to her “its ok, you need to get control of that power of yours, go and see Professor Tibet” He whispered and placed a hand on her shoulder as she put her head in her hands. “You better go too Mel, before I lose an eye” he grinned widely as Indie looked up smiling slightly.
“That’s better, come on me and Kaleb will come with you if you want”
“Ok, let’s go” Said Mel poking her sister’s arm, “We do have other things to do as well it’s a Saturday remember”
“Im coming, im coming” She pulled herself up from the bench and James grabbed Kaleb’s robes “Come on were going to see the headmistress.”
He turned around “Why I haven’t done anything yet?”
“Come on before I Give you a matching bruise to James” Smiled Mel menacingly brandishing a honey bottle.
“Im going im going”
****

“Miss Hathaway’s, Mr Potter, and Mr Forster to what do I owe the pleasure? You haven’t had another food fight in the common room have you?”
“No professor” Replied Indie and Mel together
“Hmm, sit please” she conjured more chairs
“So why are you here?” She sat down in front of her large wooden desk as her owl hooted sleepily on the perch beside the window.
“We seemed to have developed some unusual powers” Said Indie nervously
“We can move things with our minds apparently” said Mel
“And when did you notice these powers”
“During the food fight, I stopped a chocolate cake from hitting me” Indie twisted a black and silver string bracelet round and round her wrist. “Rose Weasley told us about what we could do, but we need to know why”
“Did Miss Weasley explain the genetic implications and the generation skips”
“Yes” they both replied and James spoke “But why now, why didn’t they have the powers when they where younger like being witches?”
“That’s hard to figure out, but usually it’s down to time some witches and wizards never find this power until there in there older and others can use it from infancy but it almost always serves a purpose”
“A purpose” Mel “which is what?”
“I cannot tell you, for I do not know” the professor replied
“To find out who our dad is” Said Indie looking at her sisters eyes and remembering she had seen them before but not just from looking in a mirror and not from who’s face they came from.

*****
They had left the boys outside the headmistress’ office as they wanted to go to lunch and the boys back to the common room.
“Let’s find a classroom to practice” Begged Mel to her sister “I really want to try it”
“Ok” She smiled “Lets go to the old charms room, no one uses it anymore, but after lunch were meeting Kathryn and Fiona now remember”
“Do we have to I prefer James and Kaleb to them, they just giggle a lot and talk about professor Anchorage” Smirked Mel.
Indie smiled “I think you just prefer Kaleb”
“Were all just friends, I just happen to prefer the company of intelligent boys to stupid girls” She smiled her cheeks blushing slightly as she caused a door to swing open in front of her.
“Mel! You did it”
“Did what?”
“You made that door open, look there’s no one on the other side”
“Yes! Now can we ditch the girls and go practice”
“No, you can go but I won’t make excuses for you”
“Im not going alone that won’t be any fun”
“Then why don’t you get Kaleb to go with you” Indie smiled raising her eye brows as her twin looked at her, cheeks flushed red and a frown on her face. “I think I can wait till later on then if you’re going to be like that about it” Said Mel grumpily sitting down on the bench and grabbing the jug of pumpkin juice. Indie sat beside her “We can go later but we can’t just bail out now, there coming” she nodded over to the two girls walking over. “So where did you two go off to with Potter and Forster this morning, nothing exciting I hope” Giggled Fiona
“Just to see a teacher” Mel said taking a bite from a cheese sandwich.
“We had some questions for Professor Tibet” Smiled Indie while Fiona and Kathryn never took there eyes of the two off them. “We on the other hand went out to the lake for a swim with some third years” Fiona waved behind them at a tall boy with long blonde wet hair and a large grin. “It was so much fun, but there was a first year down there looking miserable he spent the whole time throwing rocks at the squid”
“Yeh, he was horrid” Kathryn pointed to the Slytherin table “That’s him”
“Malfoy” Indie and Mel said simultaneously.

It was as if he had heard his name. He turned to find them pointing at him and smirked back his pale grey eyes surveying them closely. Those twins, there was something about them he thought and turned his attention back to his lunch placing them at the back of his mind.

“Kaleb and James were right about him Indie” Whispered Mel “about what”
“That he’s evil”
“You can’t just base an argument like that on what -”
“Hey you guys” Smiled James, Kaleb and Francis walking over to the group of girls “Budge up” Grinned James squashing on the seat next to Indie and grabbing a sandwich off the pile.
“So what did you four do this morning? Indie and Mel have been vague and we want details” Smiled Kathryn hoping to unearth some secrets.
“Why?” Said Kaleb while James looked at the twins the blank look on there faces told him nothing so he said “Nothing”
“Hmm” giggled Fiona and Kathryn
“What’s so funny?” Said Mel angrily staring at her, “Don’t you think that girls can’t be friends with boys or that there has to be something going on? You seen us four together all of first year what’s changed now” the jug on the table began to shake violently. “No” Fiona stood up with Kathryn at her side “But by the fact that your so messed up about it there must be something going on” she grinned and turned on her heel, Kathryn in tow and the jug rose and zoomed after them flew hovering over there heads and poured it contents all over them. Everyone in the hall turned to laugh as the two girls stormed out covered in pumpkin juice while the others sat at the table. “Well James, I guess you’re lucky they never served pumpkin juice this morning” Kaleb said grinning
“I think honey is dangerous enough” Said James frowning and rubbing his head
“I wish I poured it over there heads now” Frowned Mel at the two boys.
“Well im glad you didn’t” smiled Kaleb and both girls gave the same grin to the two boys beside them.

Chapter four
Control

They sat by the fire, ignoring the looks from Kathryn, Fiona and now Rebecca. “It’s going to be fun sharing a dorm with them now, why couldn’t you stay calm Mel?”
“I lack your patience it must be from mums side since you get more calm about not knowing who are dad is every day” Mel got up and stormed up stairs pasting a grin on her face when she eyed the three girls staring.

“She has issues”
“Were staying out of it” Smirked Kaleb
“Yeh I don’t fancy taking sides, I know I’ll get hurt by a flying object either way” Smiled James
“It’s not funny” Indie crossed her arms and sat deeper into the arm chair “What are we going to do? How are we supposed to ask are mother who our dad is and I mean what if even she doesn’t know?”
“Im sure she does but you need wait. Go home at Christmas, but for now I think we should leave it and you go and make peace with your sister” She nodded at James words he always was the voice of reason along with hers but it seemed her sister was getting angrier. Not wanting to wait Mel’s impatience grew over the next few weeks especially during practicing there powers in empty classrooms at night.

*****
The two sisters sat causing cushions to fly around the room while Kaleb and James sat at a desk doing homework.
Mel began to get cross when hers stopped flying. She was too distracted and couldn’t focus. She shook her head and began to stare at the cushion when suddenly, BANG; the cushion blew up sending feathers and down everywhere and bits of torn material strewn on the floor.
“Why did you do that?” Asked Indie the shock had caused her cushion to stop and fall on Kaleb’s head and his quill had scrawled along the page in surprise ruining the parchment.
“I don’t know it just happened the stupid thing wouldn’t move” Mel got up shaking with anger and walked out of the room. “Some one could have heard and be coming we’d better go to” Said Kaleb packing away.
“Wait a minute” James pulled some parchment out of his pocket along with his wand. “I solemnly swear I am up to no good” He pointed his wand at it and it revealed its secrets. “What’s that” Said Kaleb and Indie walking over “A map, see if you can find Mel”
“There’s she in the common room”
“There’s no one round where we are lets go” Said James standing up and packing away his stuff. “Where did you get that map?” Whispered Indie as they crept to the fat lady “My dad, he said I’d been good last year and gave me this though I’m not to tell mum” He grinned.
“Horse radish” Said Kaleb as the portrait opened and they clambered in side.

“It’s only a month away it was the twenty fifth of November today” said Indie sitting beside her sister, “We can show her what it means to us to find him and ask him”
“I know and now I think we should have gone straight away when we got these powers and questioned her, for all we know he could be dead”
“And if he is there’ll still be relatives, there’s a whole other family we don’t know and he probably has other children mum doesn’t know about”
“Then he won’t want us will he, especially with other children, our own mother can’t even tell us apart so he’s going to have fun with us”
“We won’t know till we ask, wait till Christmas please”
“Fine but I’m still going to be miserable” Mel smiled
“Are you ever any different?” Indie nudging her gently in the ribs
“Your mum can’t tell you guys apart” smiled James “your always talking and she’s not, it’s not that hard”
They smiled sarcastically “Well im glad you can tell the difference, cause I have to ask you since I don’t know” grinned Kaleb.
“Well if your both ok now, I vote we get some sleep cause I can’t do it in potions again” Said James getting up and Kaleb joining him. “See you two tomorrow, good night” They left and walked up the stairs to there room. Mel and Indie followed silently into there own dorm, noticing the whispers stop when they entered the room and the three other girls continue when they went to the bathroom. Indie spoke up first when they returned “If you have something to say, say it now to our faces otherwise just stop you’re bickering its getting annoying”
They didn’t reply but ceased talking and got into there own beds drawing the curtains around them.

*****
“You need to keep calm or it’s not going to work” Said Indie impatiently to her sister who was staring at her. Trying to levitate her sister was not exactly easy to do with her mind but the thought of blowing her up came more appealing the more Indie spoke to her. “If I managed to lift you up you should be able to do me” Said Indie crossing her arms and looking at her sister. The scowl that spread across her face reminded her of there mother and so did the word’s when Mel finally erupted in anger. “I JUST CAN’T DO IT YET, I TOLD YOU I COULDN’T I’M TOO FRAZZLED. HOW CAN YOU KEEP CALM? WERE GOING HOME TOMORROW?!”
“I don’t know I just have more control then you” She smiled as her sister sat in the corner.
“Control, that must be from dads side too since mum has non at all”
“Well we’ll soon find out” Indie sat beside her “it will be fine, but we can’t just ambush her with it or she’ll never tell us”
“Then how, it’s not going to be easy I know but we have to know we have a right to” Mel placed her head in her hands.
“Im not saying we don’t, but we have to tread carefully” Indie put her arm around her shoulders,
“This is going to be a disastrous Christmas, we best give her the presents before we ask and try and get her in a good mood” Mel said lifting her head up slightly.
“Just don’t jump in there first, we can ask her together just not as soon as we see her” Smiled Indie

*****
“Hey mum” They said to her stepping off the scarlet train and onto the platform. “Did you have a good trip” there mother asked and they replied by nodding grimly knowing what to do would make this the worst visit ever.
They apparated home quickly to a house filed with decorations, presents under the tree and a guest at the table.

“Girls I’d like to introduce my friend” They walked through the door whispering and stopped to look up when there mother spoke.
“Though I think you’ve already met Jasper”
They stared in shock at the table as there history professor smiled back. “Indigo, Imelda” he nodded at each respectively and continued to smile.
“Ok go and unpack now, dinner will be ready soon” They walked up the stairs in shock, there backpacks dragging up the stairs behind them. They walked to the landing and the both into Indie’s room which was closer and threw them selves on the bed.

“What are we going to do now?” Mel thumped the pillows angrily “We can’t ask her while he’s here”
“You’ve gone right on and missed the bigger picture Mel” Indie rolled over onto her back “He’s our teacher and he’s dating our mother”
Mel turned to face her “we could levitate him out a window when she’s not looking”
“We could but I’ll bet he’ll be back for Christmas day tomorrow” Said Indie smiling at her
“Well this is fantastic, we’ll just have to ask her anyway there’s no other time we can” Mel said sitting up while Indie placed a cushion under her head and looked at the ceiling “Tonight when he leaves”
“If he leaves”
Indie ignored her “or Boxing Day morning before we get the train back”
“Or just over dinner, then he might choke and run away” Mel smirked
“We have to have tact which apparently you lack so let me do the talking”
“Is it ever any other way” grinned Mel throwing a cushion at her “Oi this is my room you not allowed to throw my stuff” grinned Indie back lifting a teddy using her mind and hitting Mel’s head with it while throwing pillows the normal way.

Chapter five
Daddy Dearest

Indie and Mel took there places at the table opposite there mother and teacher smiling uncomfortably about the arrangements. The professor decided to break the ice first. “So girls your mother tells me you both enjoy playing quidditch? I used to be a fair flyer but it’s been a while since I’ve been on a broom” He smiled but no verbal reply only a scowl from Mel and a nod from Indie. They both picked up there forks at the same time and began to eat only looking at the plates and paying no attention to the couple in front of them. They ignored the questions put to them, to distracted by what they were about to ask. After a while of this behaviour there mother began to get annoyed “So girls how has the year been so far?”
“Ok” Replied Indie,
“Fine” Mel said quietly and began to mutter under her breath.
“Indigo, if you have some thing to say talk so we can all hear it don’t mummer it’s rude”
“I’m Imelda and I’m talking to Indie, she can hear me fine”
Indie smiled lowering her head so her mother couldn’t see.
“I don’t think much of your attitude young lady and with it being Christmas tomorrow you might want to reconsider you behaviour towards me and our guest if you want presents”
“The only present I want, is to know who our Dad is” Mel got up angrily and stormed away from the table fuming with rage. Indie got up and chased after her sister while Elizabeth and Jasper sat at the table in shock. Tears began to form in there mothers eyes and Jasper pulled her into a hug. “They’ll be ok, give them time. They only want to know since there’s a stranger in the house”
“But your not a stranger, you’re my partner”
“But I’m there teacher as well we knew that telling them about me and you would never be easy” He stroked her hair gently as she sobbed on his shoulder. “I haven’t told you who he is, how can I tell them”
“You told me he never wanted to know, so I don’t care who he is but they obviously do so you’re going to have to tell them and now seems like a good time”
“I can’t, they’ll never want to speak to me again, I was different back then, and I had a husband who never wanted me and a boyfriend who dumped me to tell me he had a wife. Things were so messed up I ran away from my problems and never looked back until now”
*****
“Why did you do that?” Indie said, her face pale with rage, her eyes glistening with fresh tears of anger at her twin. She paced the room watching Mel sit in the arm chair her arms crossed her face set in fury. “I had to she was picking away and I want to know, I’ve told you before and I’ll tell you again I don’t have your patience”
Indie stoped suddenly “But you’ve ruined any chance we had, you spoke devoid of any kind of tact and then ran off angry. She won’t tell us anything now she’ll just ignore us instead”
“Oh well it’s time for plan B” Mel smiled sitting up and crossing her legs while still maintaining her balance sitting on the chair.
“I don’t have a plan B what plan B” Indie continued to pace hoping it would help her think
“I have a plan” said Mel raising her head to look at her twin.
“Well then it’s defiantly going to go wrong” Indie smiled to herself.
“No, not if it’s one of yours” Mel smiled and Indie stopped pacing again and sat down on the bed clutching a teddy so hard it looked like she would squeeze its head off”
“Oi, be careful with Mr Cuddleworth” Said Mel looking at her sister who let go off the teddy like it was made entirely of hot coals and smiled while Mel continued,
“Well you said we show her our new gifts” Smiled Mel “So why not then she’ll have to tell us so we can find out what’s going on”
“Ok but when he’s gone I don’t want him to know” Indie smiled minutely as he sister grinned at her. “But I was looking forward to making him float in the air”


*****
They stood at the top of the stairs in silence holding there breath’s and listening for the sound of his voice. “I think he’s gone” Mel whispered to Indie as they heard the front door close. “Let’s get this over with then” Indie replied looking to the bottom of the stairs anxiously. The walked down hand in hand and sat on the couch facing there mother, her eyes were red and swollen as she looked up at them.

“We’re sorry” Said Mel
“But there is a reason we want to know who he is, not just to have a dad in our lives” Said Indie
“We have something to show you that might confuse you at first but it’s why we have to know” said Mel. The twins looked at each other when they got no reply, until she spoke

“I should have told you before, but you never asked so I assumed you didn’t care. It’s been twelve years since I brought you two into the world and he has never wanted to know, if you hope to make him want you, your going to be severely disappointed”
“We understand” Said Indie “but watch this” She looked at the lamp willing it to move when it began to rise off the table and float towards there mother landing in her lap. She couldn’t speak. Mel looked over to the table at the plate of bread rolls causing them to float and land on the coffee table.

“What are you to doing?” She put the lamp on the coffee table as well “What kind of trick are you playing you know damn well you’re not allowed to do magic out of school”
“We have a gift” said Mel
“A present from our father” finished Indie.
There mother sat looking at them taking it in “But he never moved anything without his wand”
“His parents or grandparents could though”
“And you’re certain you want to see him”
“Not yet” Smiled Indie
“But to know who he was and that he still exists would be the best present you could ever give us” Said Mel squeezing her sisters hand impatiently.
“He was not known as a nice person, and at the time I met him I was married” Elizabeth said looking down at her hands as the girls stared at her.
“You were married but we’re not his children are we?” Indie said, looking at her accusingly.
“No, but I left my husband for your father. I thought I loved him, until I told him I was pregnant with you two. As soon as a spoke the word pregnant he got mad and told me he had a wife, I hadn’t known till then that he did, and so he told be he was going back to her”
“And so what happened to him” Mel spoke up
“He left me for yet another woman. A lot of stuff went on and he ruined other people’s lives until he settled down himself got married again and now I believe he has a son”
“You knew we had a brother and never told us” Indie got up and began to pace trying to make sense of the situation while Mel sat in silence staring at her feet.

“Indigo Hathaway, sit down now before I have to tie you down!”
“But im not a Hathaway am I, neither me nor Mel are”
“Yes you are your my daughters!” Said there mother raising her voice slightly, but it failed when she had to speak the next words which came out just higher then a whisper “But you’re…You’re Draco Malfoy’s too”
Mel turned and ran into the bathroom to be sick, while Indie stopped mid pace and stared at her.
“Malfoy’s that’s impossible… or we would have been in Slytherin with Scorpius”
“You know his son?”
“He’s in the year below us, we seen him on the train with…with… his father”
“Draco’s your father as well” Said Elizabeth, she hid her tear ridden face in her hands and sobbed.
Indie rushed to the bathroom to join her sister finding her curled up in the bathtub breathing shallowly. She leaned in and stroked her hair gently moving it from her face “Its going to be ok, everything’s going to be ok” She looked into her eyes hearing there mother crying in the other room and realised on who else’s face they belonged. She climbed in the bath next to her and hugged her. Holding on to each other tightly they cried them selves to sleep, hoping tomorrow would never come.

Chapter Six
Did you have a Merry Christmas?

They awoke in the tub still wrapped in a hug only a blanket had been placed over them. “Was it a dream” Said Mel groggily sitting up and rubbing her eyes. “I don’t think so” replied Indie joining her sister sitting up and swearing “Urgh its Christmas today, this is going to be horrific”
“Yep” Said Mel carefully clambering out of the bath and perching on the toilet lid “So how do we approach this Indie, I don’t want to think about him being our… well any relation of ours”
“Then let’s forget we asked and maybe she will to” She looked at Mel a sarcastic smile on her face.
“Im being serious Indie, she’s about as pleased as we are that he’s our…our…”
“Father” Indie Finished
“Yes that” Said Mel taking a deep breath and willing herself not to vomit.
“Ok then let’s be reasonable, if we don’t mention it I doubt she will” Said Indie getting out of the bath and sitting on the sink basin.
“Fine and what If the professor drops round to give mother dearest her present” Said Mel looking at her,
“We don’t talk about it, but I have a feeling he’ll know soon enough now she’s told us”
“Indie, do you think he’ll want to see us, ever?”
“He hasn’t done so before I doubt he’ll want to start now he has his own family now”

*****

Draco Malfoy sat proudly at the head of the table watching his family eat breakfast. His beautiful wife seemed more of a Malfoy everyday, her sapphire eyes glinted as she smiled at him, his son was a perfect specimen of himself and the woman beside him, the white blonde hair, pale grey eyes and the smile and nose of his mother. This boy was destined to be a great Malfoy he thought to himself but then another thought came to mind. His other children, he had daughters he had never met. His illegitimate daughters born to a mother who had never allowed him near them, to meet them. They were always in his thoughts, and even more so today. He rose from the table, excusing himself and went to sit in his study.

A silent tear fell down his cheek and his hands clenched into fists. He had changed from to man he used to be, he had settled down his hunger and lust and found a woman who appreciated him, who loved him and gave him a son. He was magically bound from being able to talk to them, write or instruct others to so for him. He could not communicate with them and it hurt. He waited for the day they would ask about him or seek him out but so far for nearly thirteen years it had never come.

*****

They sat at the table eating breakfast cereal as there mother stared into her coffee cup. They got up silently, went to the Christmas tree, picked up there gifts for her and placed them on the table. “Happy Christmas Mum” They smiled at her and she looked up a small smile appeared on her lips and tears in the corners of her eyes. “Happy Christmas girls” She placed a hand on both there cheeks and smiled weakly up at them.

They sat under there tree opening there gifts smiling at the presents forgetting what was said yesterday until there was a knock at the door. There mother answered it and was in the hallway for five minutes before coming in smiling “If it’s ok with you two Jasper has come round for Christmas lunch and to see if we can start again” Mel shrugged and Indie replied for the both of them. “Its fine, but we haven’t got you any presents “She smiled.
“This lovely lady here will just have to do” Said the professor pulling there mother into a hug as the girls cringed picking up there presents and taking them to there rooms. The sat on Mel’s bed when two owls came to the window holding a parcel between them. Indie read the note aloud just as Mel tore furiously at the box trying to open it.

Who's the present from?!? TELL ME!! Or I'll... do something :evillaugh

Great Chapter part! Can't wait for the next bit!

Abi...xox

“Dear Indie and Mel,
We thought you might need this after you asked your mum. We hope your Christmas goes well considering all things and we send this hoping to see you on the train on boxing day though we thought it best not to give you some chocolate frogs, we all know how dangerous they are.
See you on Boxing Day,
James and Kaleb”

Indie stared down at the parcel, a box filled with chocolates and sweets.
“We have great friends you know” Said Indie smiling.
Mel nodded “fantastic, to know just what a girl needs when she finds something out that changes everything and makes her a something she’s not, like finding out she’s a Malfoy” smiled Mel
“Ok but I thought we were forgetting it” Indie looked at her surprised
“James and Kaleb brought it up”
“James and Kaleb did what” Said there mother standing at the door “Sent us these” Smiled Indie quickly.
“Hmm, well Jasper and I have some things to explain to you so you want to come downstairs” They nodded and followed her down.

Sitting on the couch they both smiled. “Well” Said Elizabeth “I supposed your wondering how I met Jasper”
“Just a bit” Said the girls together
“It was through your Aunty Jasmine and Uncle Romlin”
“What do they have to do with it? Said Mel staring at her mother
“It was at there house they had a party a few months ago and that how we met, you remember you stayed over at grandma’s while I went there for your uncle’s birthday he had invited Jasper who also knows James’ mum and dad and some of there family.”
“But I had never met James till this year at school so I don’t think he knows I know his parents” Jasper cut in.
“Oh” The twins replied simultaneously yet again. Then Mel spoke up “ok, so what now your dating our mother and going to be a fair teacher to us”
“Well it’s worked so far” Smiled Jasper “But don’t worry, I won’t force my way into your lives, I want to get to know you two better, it will take time, and I know it will be awkward but I love your mum and I want this to work” He smiled looking at Elizabeth and holding her hand in his lap.
Mel sat unable to talk. Her teacher had just declared his love for there mother, they knew who there dad was but now there was some one who wanted to replace him before there’d even met him. It was too much for her to take in and she shouted. “NO!” and ran crying to her room throwing clothes into her backpack when Indie came up behind her and raised her up into the air.

“LET ME DOWN” She screamed “I CAN’T TAKE THIS ANYMORE! I’M GOING TO FIND HIM AND TALK TO HIM”
“Stop it, calm down” Said Indie lowering her slightly so she hovered above the floor.
“CALM, HOW CAN I BE CALM DO YOU NOT REALISE WHATS HAPPENING?” she struggled in vain against her sister’s hold.
“I know exactly what’s going on, but I have control which is allowing me to stop you from making a big mistake”
“MISTAKE, THE ONLY MISTAKE IS THINKING YOU FEEL THE SAME WAY I DO ABOUT KNOWING WHO WE REALLY ARE”
Indie face fell and tears began to fall “I DO want to see him BUT for now we have to stand by mum, she made a big decision to let a man into hers and our lives and now you’re acting on impulse, which isn’t going to help the situation”
“You told me to look at the bigger picture and all I can see is him trying to be a dad while trying to teacher us at school and it’s not going to work” Said Mel breathing deeply trying to suppress her anger.
“I know what you mean, I understand how you feel I really do, but-”
“BUT WHAT, ME ACTING ON IMPULSE IS COMPLETELY IRRATIONAL AND I NEED TO CALM DOWN AND BE IN CONTROL, BE A ROBOT LIKE YOU”
“If you have to yes, show some discipline and grow up please” She turned away as her sister landed on her feet behind her. Mel stared unsuccessfully trying to make Indie rise off the ground like she had just done to her when Indie turned to her smiling “You’ll never be able to do it until you gain some self control and patience” and she walked down the stairs tears falling angry with what she had said to her twin, feeling guilt and pain for stopping her when she knew she just wanted to go with her.

She continued down the stairs and heard her mother and Jasper talking.
“I just knew it was too soon, we should have told them gradually, they never even knew I was seeing anyone”
“Your there mother, they know what your doing is difficult for you too, but you have two of the smartest girls I’ve ever met I’m sure that Indie will calm Mel down and we can all talk again, its just going to take time for them to get used to the idea of you an me”
“Some Christmas this has turned out to be, they hate me for having a boyfriend and come home asking me about there dad. I don’t know how I could have gotten through today so far with out you, I mean its not even lunch time yet and they ran away upstairs, what am I going to do?”
Indie watched him pull her into a hug then a kiss and turned around feeling dizzy to find Mel standing behind her. “Spying on the happy couple are we” She smirked
“No, looking on how to go about damage control” Indie said bracing her self for the reply
“What is it with you and control, why don’t you just let things happen?”
“I can’t sit back and let everything you do make the world crash around my feet, someone has to be there to stop you”
“Stop me” she grinned
“Yes, control, patience, intelligence all the things you lack, I must be more Malfoy then I thought” Indie said and turning walked down the rest of the stairs and into the living room, sitting on the couch she smiled and began to make conversation with Jasper whilst there mother went into the kitchen to prepare lunch.

*****
“I show her patience and control. I’ll do what she wants and stay here” Mel said muttering to herself lying on her bed “ I’ll even talk to the professor if she wants then will see who has control” She smiled to herself not knowing her twin was next to her door listening to her, taking in every word and marvelling at the wonders of reverse psychology.
*****
Mel walked down the stairs quietly, the smell of roast chicken in the air, a small smile on her face at the fact she was going to prove to Indie that she too was just as much in control of her self as she was.

They sat next to each other seeming brighter and happier surprising both there mother and Jasper at there polite conversation so different from the running of and yelling earlier that day.
“I think the history of magic is fascinating” Said Indie
“Yes, to learn our history and where we and other magical creatures come from is an enlightening subject” Smiled Mel. The Professor wasn’t sure whether they were joking with him so just nodded and smiled. Elizabeth beamed happiness and squeezed Jaspers hand. They enjoyed desert, said there goodbyes and retreated to there rooms packing away the gifts and clothes to go back to school tomorrow.

Indie stood at Mel’s door smiling “I enjoyed that little performance; you would make a great actress”
Mel laughed “Thankyou, I thought they might appreciate it considering my earlier out burst’s, I mean I have to prove I do have some restraint over my emotions”
Indie laughed and moved forward embracing her sister in a hug. “Im sorry about what I said before, I do want to talk to him, but we have a brother to contend with as well as mums boyfriend”
“Don’t worry, your right but remember were Malfoy’s now too” Smiled Mel
“Since when did you like the idea of having a Malfoy for a father?” Indie questioned, pulling away from the hug but keeping her hands on her sister’s shoulders.
“I think I might prefer the idea of him to Professor Anchorage”
Indie stood back “So from hating the idea of him you’ve changed your mind yet again, you may have control of your emotions but you’ve completely lost the plot” She turned and left lying on her bed and looking forward to school tomorrow but not to telling James and Kaleb there Christmas story.

well can't say their christmas was uneventful!

pams!

Glad u liked it i posted the next bit so now you can't do anything evil !

Keeper :

Chapter Seven
Malfoy’s by blood

Indie hugged her mother and stepped onto the train, Mel followed behind her face smiling but her heart pounding and her thoughts elsewhere. They sat in the compartment saying nothing. Not a word had been said between them since Indie questioned Mel’s sanity and the fact there mother had tried to force them to speak all morning hadn’t helped matters.

Kaleb and James grinned knocking on the compartment door but stoped smiling as soon as they saw the twin’s pale, faces one with a look of anger and hatred, the other deep in thought. “What happened?” James said, sitting next to Indie and staring at Mel as she turned her head to look out of the window.
“Did someone die, because that’s what you two look like” Said Kaleb sitting down spacing himself carefully away from Mel. James kicked his shin but Indie spoke up “Someone might as well have done”
“Did you find out who he was?” Said James thinking of trying how to tread carefully but wanting to know what had made his friends so upset.
“Yes” the twins replied
“And” said Kaleb sitting on the edge of his seat
“And what” Mel turned to look at him glaring loathingly into his eyes.
Kaleb recoiled and looked down at the floor he didn’t know how to reply and couldn’t stand to see his friend look at him like that.
“Im sorry about Imelda, she seems to have changed recently” Said Indie smiling, Kaleb looked up, “Its ok you don’t have to tell us if you don’t want to”
“I want to tell you both but I need Indigo’s approval apparently”
The boy’s looked at each other and stood to leave.
“I think we’ll leave you two to talk” James looked at them both worriedly as if they were going to attack each other. The sisters stared at each other looking dangerous ignoring the boys opening the compartment door and taking on last glace at them they walked away at a loss on what to do to help them.

“Why do you have to be like that?” Indie started
“Because your you” Mel smiled
“What you have to be mean, miserable and psychotic because im not” Smirked Indie
“IM NOT THOSE THINGS IM JUST ANGRY” she stood up rage emanating from every fibre of her body. “YOU SIT THERE ALL CALM AND… AND DON’T FACE WHATS GOING ON, WE’RE NOT WHO WE THOUGHT WE WERE! WE’RE MALFOYS AND YOU CANT EVEN ACKNOWLEDGE IT”
“I suppose, but im going though exactly what you are I just don’t shout it from the roof tops” Indie crossed her arms and sat back to look out of the window to the platform meanwhile her sister was fuming her face contorted in anger and her wand in hand.

“You manage fine because you bottle everything up, you have done so since we were five years old, you maybe older then me by three minutes but it doesn’t mean you have to take the lead on everything we do or how we feel”
“We maybe twins but we are completely different people and I know that but for this we have to stand together. You can let your emotion take hold of you and I respect how you tell what you feel but I just can’t do that, im just not like you”
Mel gazed at her sister feeling shocked that she could admit how different they were despite everything that was going on “Im sorry” She looked guiltily at her hands and twisted her own blue and silver string bracelet around and around her wrist as she sat down placing her wand on her lap.

Indie smiled “Im sorry too, I’m just worried. Were both scared and we let it get the better of us” She stood up and sat beside her sister moving to hug her. Mel immediately began to cry in her arms “Can you believe it; we have a dad and a brother now”
“Yes but they don’t know we know and I doubt Malfoy would tell his wife and son about us do you”
Mel shook her head and sat back up “Did you see Scorpius on the train when we left school?”
“No, but I wasn’t looking” they got up and looked down the length of the train from there carriage window Indie sighed “I didn’t think to look for him here, I feel stupid now”
“He’s not here look” Mel pointed “only his mum came” they saw her apparate as her son boarded the train just as it began to leave.
“Do you think we should tell him Indie?” Mel searched her face for a reply and saw her own worried look staring back.
“I don’t think now’s the right time, we need to talk to dad first”
“You called him dad” Mel stared at her sister in shock
“Well he is isn’t he?” Indie’s brow creased with thoughts
“Yes but you haven’t said it like that before you called him Malfoy”
Indie’s frown turned to a smile “well I guess it’s growing on me too”
They hugged and looked around to see James and Kaleb peeking through the glass of the compartment door.
“You ready to tell them” Smiled Mel
“As I’ll ever be” Said Indie. She still looked worried but she knew that by telling them they could lift some of the burden and get some support from there best friends.
*****
“What!” Kaleb’s reply came as he struggled to take in the news “Malfoy’s”
“Yes but were just the same as we ever were, we’re not going to change are name and move to Slytherin”
“You’d best not” Smiled James taking it better then Kaleb “Were not going to disown you don’t worry but now I know why I keep getting hit, its all that Malfoy rage at the Potters, my dad and your dad weren’t exactly friends at school”
“While it must be the Hathaway in me that feels compelled to be your friend since I can’t think of a better reason” Smiled Indie as he gave her a friendly punch on her arm.
“So what about you Kaleb you going to disown us” Smiled Mel
“Of course not” he laughed, “So tell me how did you ask her?”
Mel and Indie looked at each other and knew there was more explaining to do,
Mel began slowly “Well you see our mum has a boyfriend”
“You’ll never guess who” Smiled Indie
“So were just going to tell you” Laughed Mel
“But we are concerned about it” Said Indie frowning seriously
“Professor Jasper Anchorage” They said together looking at each other then the boys beside them and smiling at the shock pasted on there faces.
“You got to be kidding” Said James while Kaleb’s mouth hung open.
“We’re not” Smiled Indie “and he knows your parents as well”
“Hmm, they never mentioned they knew my teacher must have slipped there minds” Grinned James a he looked at Kaleb. “He seems to be having a harder time then we did sis” Said Mel looking at Kaleb and then at Indie.
“Im fine” he closed his mouth and tried to look normal, “Its just well surprise, and like you said to be concerned about”
“Imagine how you feel and times it by a thousand and that’s how we feel” Smiled Mel trying to tell him that if they could cope with it surely he could.
“It was a shock to see him just sitting at the table when we got home, but well he was there so mum never really got mad like we thought when it burst out of Mel’s mouth she wanted her dad for Christmas” Said Indie
Mel glared at her, and James picked up on it calming them down before another argument began.
“Ok let’s talk about something else” Smiled Indie reassuring him that they wouldn’t be at each others throats and turned to her sister who smiled at her. “It was kind of funny how mad I got” she started to laugh and the other three looked at her like she had gone crazy. Until the whole compartment filled with laughed and the discussion was forgotten.

“What’s going on?” Said Albus and Roman standing at the door looking at the four students laughing there faces red and there eyes filled with tears.

“Nothing” Spluttered Mel in between laughs “Just… laughing… really…. Funny… joke”

thank goodness
that they can figure things out when times are tough!

Chapter eight
A Malfoy’s Regret

Draco paced his around his study. He had returned there after the Christmas festivities had finished and not come out since. His hair had not been combed, he had not showered and he had not slept. It would be there birthday in six days, thirteen, he smiled still walking. He longed to see what they looked like how they had grown but waiting four more years did not appeal to him one bit, after thirteen years of waiting it tormented him so much. Letting Elizabeth getting away with what she did to him had never been easy to accept. He remembered there last conversation:

“Your not getting anywhere near them”, her brown eyes angry, tears falling hatefully.
“There my daughters, it’s been nearly a year since they were born and I’ve changed” He pleaded with her
“They need a father, and I am it, I just want to see them please”
“Not a chance in hell, you left me, you left them”
“I won’t stand by and let another man raise my children”
“There won’t be another man, your all the same, they’ll have me and I will be enough for them. They don’t need a father and they don’t need you!”
“Please im begging you”
“Never” she drew her wand and chanted something at him. “What are you doing?” he looked at her in despair, his eyes filled with tears.
“Protecting my daughters, they won’t be able to be anywhere near you and if I even bother to tell them who you are and what you did to us I doubt they’ll want to”
“What, no you can’t do this to me; I can’t live and know that I have parts of me out there and im not able to see them!”
“Well your going to have to, it’s only till they come of age then they can chose” She apparated leaving him feeling empty inside as his thoughts drifted back to the present.

He knew there names, he knew they went to Hogwarts, but every time he got close to seeing them he was not allowed. He saw there mother kiss and hug two shapes at the platform as if they where shadows. He was forbidden from getting even to close to them and he couldn’t speak or see what they looked like when he did. To him they appeared only as black figures without detail or colour unable to disguise anything at all from them apart from how tall they were. They mother had cast her spell with care and he could not break it only she had the power to.
How he wished he had tried harder and in vain hoped to see them sooner but he knew he could not and lived his life the past years for his wife and son never forgetting his daughters and waiting for there seventeenth birthday.

*****
They sat in the common room that evening looking forward to the lessons beginning the next day until the topic was brought up this time by Kaleb.
“I know you don’t want to talk about it but I think you both should”
“We know” smiled Indie slightly “But how do we just go to his house and say ‘hi were those kids you abandoned along with there mother thirteen years ago’” Finished Mel, fidgeting with her bracelet and looking at Indie who was doing the same with hers twisting it round and around her wrist leaving a red line. “You do that anymore and you’ll cut your hand off” Smiled James, lifting her hand away. Indie smiled absentmindedly, looking at her wrist and into the fire lost in thought, Mel left her own bracelet alone and got up announcing she was going to bed and would talk about it tomorrow. “I just can’t think about it, I need sleep” She yawned and left to go to her dorm followed by Kaleb ten minutes later saying he was bored and was going to hang with some of the guys in there dorm.

Indie and James sat on the couch in silence, the room slowly emptying. James spoke up as Indie stared now at the dying embers of the fire. “It might help to talk about it you know, we may only be twelve but we can go through some pretty heavy stuff” He smiled and she turned to face him. “I guess so, it’s just…”
“Hey, im your best friend you can tell me anything apart from girly stuff, save that for your sister and those lovely dorm mates of yours”
She grinned though tears began to fall.
“Come here, you need a hug” he smiled his brown eyes widening in concern “don’t be scared im not going to bite, not like Kaleb” she leaned in awkwardly but felt better as soon as he wrapped his arms round her back.
“Thanks James”
“Ok, now talk to me, it seems I have my listening cap on and it doesn’t happen very often”
“Well Mel thinks I bottle up my emotions and act like a robot”
“You do, but it’s not always a bad thing, you’re the calm one in group your in control and your priorities are set”
“Hmm, so we are Malfoy’s why do we have to change who we are? Why do we even have to find him?”
“You don’t but I thought you wanted to, to explain about the powers and to find out who you are, are you really sure what your mums told you is true?”
“I trust my mum but I don’t think Mel does, not after the Professor Anchorage thing”
“Then talk to her and try not to kill each other, your either pulling each other apart or acting like one person”
“You know your right about everything, how can you be?”
“Its my dads life time of wisdom stored in my head, mind you there is some fluff from my mum in there somewhere” he grinned banging the side of his head with his hand as if trying to shake it out.
“So whose idea was the chocolate?”
“Kaleb’s, he can be quite nice some times he’s not as always as sensitive as blunt axe”
“Well I shall have to thank your dad for giving me the best friend ever” She smiled wiping her puffy red eyes at the same time.
“Well if you ever want to talk im here, your sisters there, and failing us there’s always Kaleb”
She stood up “night James, thanks” she smiled and waved making her way upstairs.
“Indie?” called James up the stairs standing at the bottom,
She turned back to look “Yeh”
“What do you two want for your birthday?”
“I don’t know what I want, but she wants to meet him” she smiled at him weakly, “Good night” and continued up the stairs flopping on to her bed and falling into a deep sleep under the soft fluffy covers.

*****
There first day back was a rush of noise and sound around them. They focused hard on there work and on avoiding Scorpius as he skulked around the school.
“We could just go up and tell him and get him to take us to dad” Said Mel stealing a potato from Indie’s plate and popping it into her own mouth.
“No we can’t, we are going to see him, but we need to get permission from mum first”
“What!” Mel dropped her fork on the table in surprise.
“Yes, we need to let her know she can trust us, and not just spring it on her like you did asking her”
Mel frowned grabbed her fork and stabbed her chicken brutally.
“Don’t act all mad again, you know how well it went the first time, we have to act sensibly we ask mum and then send an owl to him”
“If it was as easy as sending an owl, why didn’t we think of it before?”
“I guess it was the shock of knowing who he is combined with how do you put ‘Hi we’re your daughters you abandoned’ in a letter”
“Then lets go and try now, we have to see him soon and im ready”
“I don’t think I am I mean I just…” Indie looked up and saw Professor Anchorage talking to Professor Tibet. “I want to wait”
“WAIT!” Mel shouted the whole hall stopped and went silent. She stood up and stared at her sister “I’VE WAITED FOR YOU LONG ENOUGH” She ran out of the hall crying every one looking at Indie who burst into tears. James and Kaleb got up and escorted her out of the hall quickly as everyone returned to there food.

Scorpius looked at them, there arms round her shoulders she could hardly walk for crying. She looked up slowly and saw him watching her. She stared back and he couldn’t look away, those eyes, he had seen them before. He got up and walked out distracted he had to speak to his father.

I was so bored i wrote another chapter and a new fan fic ! Enjoy x

Chapter nine
It’s all in the eyes

They sat placing Indie carefully on the couch and covered her shaking and sobbing form with a blanket.
“Mel?” they called they couldn’t go up the stair to see if she was in the dorm and shouted her name. “Mel?”
James sat down next to Indie and held on to her hand. She couldn’t speak. Kaleb tried to go up but the stairs changed to the slide as soon as he had got to the top and he hung on to the door knob until his hand slipped and he came crashing down.
“We have to wait for a girl, she can’t even talk” said James just as Kathryn, Fiona and Professor Anchorage came in “where’s professor Longbottom, he’s our head of house not you” Said Kaleb rudely
“I told him I would come up and see, he knows about the… situation” he looked at Indie and then to the boys. “Kathryn and Fiona, could you go up and see where Mel is, boys could I have a minute to speak with Indigo” James and Kaleb moved away talking quietly and huddling over something.
“Why professor, she won’t want us, she’s not our friend” said Fiona,
“Just go” he reply nearly losing his temper. They ran up the stairs quickly.
“Tell me what happened between you two Indigo” he knelt down and looked at her
“I wanted to wait” Indie whispered, “Wait for what?” Jasper looked at her concerned,
“To see dad”
“Malfoy” he whispered, she nodded,
“Your mum told me, its ok” he smiled weakly
“Professor she not up here” Said Fiona trotting down the stairs with a sickly sweet smile on her face,
“She’s out here” Kaleb pointed to a figure walking across the grounds her wand lit, as James put away a piece of parchment in his pocket.
“Where out there?” He walked over quickly and looked out the window, “Boys take Indie to the hospital wing; I’ll go and get her”
“Im coming to” Said Kaleb “She’ll want a friend not… well not a teacher”
“Hurry up then” The professor replied as he approached the door.

James held on to Indie helping her down the staircase to the left while the professor and Kaleb ran down the one to the right. They reached the hospital wing and he made her sit on the bed while he got Madam Pomfrey. Now in her sixties she squinted at James, “Harry Potter, what have you done this time?”
“Im James Potter” he smiled
“James is dead” His smile was replaced by laughter to which she looked confused,
“Not my Grandad, im Harry’s son James and im not here for me, my friends not well” he smiled and she looked at him closely “well who ever you are what’s wrong with your friend”
“She’s upset and needs something to settle her down”
Indie had curled up and was shaking as Madam Pomfrey lent down to examine her. “Its alright dear have a sip of this” she handed her some purple liquid in a glass that smelt of marshmallow’s “And have some of this” she handed her a small bar of honey dukes. She drank and ate sitting up slowly “You feeling better” James said sitting down beside her. She nodded gratefully “I have to talk to her, explain what I meant”

*****
“Imelda, STOP!” The Professor shouted, reaching her as she attempted to get the gates open.
“Mel, don’t leave” said Kaleb standing beside him.
“Why? What have you got to do with this?” She glared at the professor angrily
“As your teacher, I forbid you from leaving the grounds”
“And what about as my mothers boyfriend”
“Imelda, at this moment in time im here as your teacher telling you, that you can not go” said Jasper calmly looking deep into her eyes pleading with her.
She looked to Kaleb refusing to look back at the professor. “Where’s my sister, she sent you to come and get me thinking you could make me stay”
“No I came because im your friend Mel, your sisters gone to the hospital wing with James”
“Why what’s wrong with her has a fuse blown in her robotic heart?”
“Your reaction has caused her a lot of pain, she can hardly walk or talk she’s to worried about you, she just wants to talk to you Imelda” said Jasper
“It’s not my fault if she can’t bear to here what’s going on she has to be in control all the time”
“You upset her by running you never gave her a chance to explain” Kaleb said beginning to get angry.
“And, she doesn’t want to see dad but I do so im going and she can stay for all I care” Mel stared back and then turned back to the gates.
“You don’t mean that Imelda” Said the professor,
“For Merlin’s sake only my mother calls me Imelda, my names MEL!”
Kaleb walked forward and placed his hand on her shoulder but she shrugged it off “Please let her explain, and if not come inside and we can talk”
“I’ve had enough of talking, I want to go. I want to meet him”
“You can’t just yet, please stay” he tried again to put a hand on her shoulder and this time was successful.
“Fine, but im not talking to her, she had better stay away from me until the Easter holidays then I can go with out yours, hers or mums interference”
Kaleb smiled and grabbed her bag carrying it as the professor led the way up to the castle.

Father,
Im writing to ask about our family, I have just met two girls at my school, that look familiar and I was wondering if we had any cousins or relatives I did not know about. They only similarity that I can tell is the eyes, the Malfoy eyes which we share which makes me believe they are some distant relative of ours since they bear no other features and are in Gryffindor. They are twin girls in there second year here, with the surname I have found to be Hathaway which suggest them to be of muggleborn heritage. I only ask in furthering my knowledge of our family.
Your son

Mel threw her bag down after stomping off up the stairs to the dorm after ignoring the Professors plea’s to stay and talk to him. She pulled her curtains shut as the other girls in there dorm came up. They tried to ask what had happened trying to pick up on the latest gossip but she ignored them wrapping herself up in her quilt and falling into an angry sleep.
Indie didn’t leave the hospital wing since Madam Pomfrey thought it best to keep her away from Mel over night to avoid any more distress on her part against Indie protests of having to see her. She was given a sleeping draught to calm her and James stayed until she drifted of into a dreamless sleep assuring her they would sort it all out tomorrow.

He made his way up to the common room and found Kaleb waiting on the couch.
“I forgot girls were such drama queen’s” Kaleb smiled handing him a bottle of butter beer. James looked at him confused “It’s from the kitchens”
“Not that, how can you say there drama queen’s, there our friends” James looked at him and he replied smiling,
“Not Indie and Mel mate, there like guys apart from the crying, I just had Kathryn, Fiona and Rebecca on my back prying for gossip”
“Oh the gossip queen’s of Hogwart’s what did you tell them” James smiled back
“To keep there noses out of other peoples business and not to get involved”
“Good, this is going to be terrible in the morning, does Mel want to speak to her yet?”
“Nope it looks like its going to be a while, she reckons Easter, this is going to be a fun few days especially with there birthdays; did she tell you want they wanted?”
“Mel wants to meet there dad”
“What about Indie?”
“I don’t think she knows yet, she’s confused”
“Then I suggest chocolate, it solves all lives problems” he open a bar and shoved some cubes into his mouth smiling.

Chapter ten
Persuasion

Draco sat in his chair once more, and began to rifle though the papers on his desk his head filled with thoughts other then work, when there was a knock on his study door. “Come in” he turned as his wife came towards him “A letter from Scorpius” she smiled sitting down in a large, black leather chair opposite him.
He opened it, read and his face became so pale his wife looked at him in concern, “Draco, what’s wrong? Has something happened to him?” He placed the letter on the desk and his head in his hands “He’s met them”
She reached across and grabbed the letter. She read it quickly and replied, “We have to tell him who they are, and we have to stop this torture that woman is putting you through.”
“It’s not as easy as it sounds, this curse has stopped me from seeing them from going anywhere near them, after all these years of waiting she’ll have hoped I’ll have forgotten about them and there’s no way she’ll lift it”
“Well then, we will have to persuade her, I might have been years but you can’t give up hope now. You’ve spent your time waiting patiently now’s the time to change that” she got up and took his hand and led him outside of the room. “Go upstairs, shower, change put a comb through your hair you have birthdays to attend in three days and I want you looking you best for your daughters”
“You remembered”
“How could I forget” she smiled stroked his cheek and placed a kiss on his forehead “Go”

*****
They stood on the door step waiting for there knock to be noticed, “She’s not going to come or she’ll know it’s us and is ignoring us” Draco turned as if to walk away
“Don’t give up so easily, I can see why its been thirteen years and you haven’t tried again since, but just wait it hasn’t even been a minute yet” Astoria’s sapphire eyes sparkled in the light as he stared at her and walked forward again “Ok, but she might be at work or out”
“Well it doesn’t sound like it” she heard noises from inside as she ran the bell again.
“Coming” Came, a woman’s voice inside the house then the sounds of shoes down stairs. She opened the door and looked in shock at what was before her. She went to close the door but Astoria was to quick, “We want to talk to you” she said as Elizabeth drew her wand “Only to talk to you” Astoria and Draco made no move towards there wands but walked inside and stood around the living room.

Draco smiled taking in his surrounding’s, he knew this was as close as he had been to them for the last twelve years. Astoria sat down, watching Draco as he gazed around the room and Elizabeth stood in the middle of the room facing her and angry gleam in her eyes her wand still drawn.
“What do you want?”
“To see my daughters” Draco turned to face her, his face pale, his hands shaking.
“Well they don’t want to see you, I bet you don’t even know there names”
“Indigo Anne Malfoy, Imelda Jane Malfoy, Indigo is older by three minutes, both were born at exactly 6lb’s, born on January 1st ,at seventeen and twenty past nine in the morning.”
She stared at him “those things are all on record apart from there names, there not Malfoy’s” she spat “There Hathaway’s”
“They are Malfoy’s by blood, and have a right to know” Astoria stood by her husband.
“Lift the this curse please just so I can meet them, I want to know them more then just dates and facts I want to see what they look like, to talk to them, to tell them they have a brother” Draco pleaded with her,
“I told you no all those years ago, why are you here now?” Elizabeth sneered getting angrier by the second.
“It’s been a long time since then and I’ve changed even more, im not who I was back then and it’s torturing me not knowing them” Elizabeth smiled at his words “that was the point, you didn’t want us until you couldn’t have us anymore”
“No Elizabeth, I didn’t want you” Draco sat down as the words wiped the smile of her face and she held her wand higher.
“Well it’s too late for them they going to have a father after all it just won’t be you”
“What do you mean?” Draco sat up, looking at her in despair,
“I’ve found someone and he wants’ to be there dad unlike you, you missed out Draco and there’s nothing you can do” Elizabeth began to move around the room still holding her wand aloft.
“Then there’s no reason for you not to lift the spell, let them meet him and decide who they want as a father” Said Astoria sitting beside her husband and taking his hand in her own.
Elizabeth stood still and considered this, what she had told the girls already and what other lies she could tell to dissuade them.
“Ok then, they chose, but I think they might prefer my choice to death eater” she smiled and began to chant while Astoria and Draco sat silenced in shock.

When she finished she got up and walked to the door, and pointed her wand gesturing them outside. “I will speak to them and the school and organise a weekend where you can meet them with my supervision”
“Can I ask who you intend to replace me with?”
“No, but you’ll meet him soon enough” She closed the door behind her let out a deep breath and sat on the couch, considering her options now. She would set up a meeting, and use her talents of persuasion to the best of her abilities to stop her daughters even considering of meeting him.

*****
Draco sat at his desk, he had to do this carefully, he would go to the school and tell his son, and then he would see his daughters. He wanted to tell them everything but knew it might be too much. He couldn’t risk seeing them yet or Elizabeth might cast the spell again. He would wait; he could wait for the weekend he had been promised. For thirteen years he had suffered in silence and now he would see them, after there mother had told them who he was of course. He considered what he would say to them and then began to write a letter to Scorpius.
‘Scorpius,
I think I have some things that would be best to tell you in person. I am going to visit you on the’ His quill paused over the parchment and he smiled and continued to write.

*****
Mr D Malfoy,
I have told the school about the situation and they had agreed to let us visit them on Saturday the eighth of January. You are to go to the Headmistresses office and we will all meet there. I am to speak to them first then you can say your piece.
Miss E Hathaway.

She then turned to another piece of parchment and wrote,

Indigo and Imelda,
I hope your school year is progressing well. I know we haven’t been in contact for a few days, and after everything that had happened over Christmas I hoped you would. By now you should be speaking to each other again and this letter is for the two of you. Your father has decided after thirteen years of neglect that he wants to meet me and talk. I thought I should let you know some more about his past, I know what I have to say might lessen your opinion of him but do not be discouraged there maybe some kindness in him some where.

He is the son of Lucius Malfoy and Narsissa Black. Lucius was a well known supporter of Voldemort and a death eater. It is not widely known how ever that his son was a death eater too, I have seen the tattoo. He is charming, and caring until something doesn’t go his way and I regret to say I fell for him despite my better instincts. I was a fool and I don’t want you too to make the same mistakes of falling for a Malfoy’s charm.

I hope you know better then to speak to his son, I have a feeling he is just the same as his father. You two on the other hand share not only some of his better traits but the Hathaway blood that makes you who you are. I’m proud of the both of you for all you having the courage to ask the identity of your father I only wish that he could have been the father you deserve.
I wish you both a happy birthday and will send your presents on in a day or so.
I love you both so very much, You’re Mother XXXX
