My love, Regulus Black

 Epilogue

"I kind of have a personal question"

"Go on"

"My mother, you knew her didn't you?"

"Who is your mother?" she asked genuinely confused

"Primrose Nott but before Avery"

McGonagall dropped her cup making it shatter

"Mr. Nott, Primrose Avery died in a house fire"

"No she didn't she died of an unknown illness" he pulled out a picture of him and his mum

"Godric" her eyes watered looking at Prim

"Could you tell me about her? My father refuses to talk about her"

"Primrose merlin that girl was the definition of a true gryffindor, she was exceedingly confident, loyal like no other, determined and brave"

"Professor McGonagall I might sound insane but I think my father did something to my mum, she was quiet and very kind but I wouldn't describe her as any of what you just did"

There was a thick silence

"She said she never even played quidditch"

"Mr. Nott I suggest you talk to your father because up until now I thought she was dead"

When he walked out of her office he snook back into the portrait room

"Hello" he lit his wand

"Student out of bed, Prongs imagine that we would've never been out of bed past curfew" She shook her head sarcastically and laughed 

"You mean we would've never got caught, woah Prim he kinda looks like Nott" James moved into her portrait

"I am Nott, Theodore Nott"

"Ew who would reproduce with Nott" Prims portrait laughed

"You did, i'm your son"

She fell silent "Listen I may be a painting but at this age I was to marry Regulus Black there's no way i'm your mother" she crossed her arms and James laughed

"Wait Prim I kind of see it" Fabian walked two portraits over

"Yeah as if my portrait isn't crowded enough" She had that same look on her face

"Wait let me see" Archer McCoy who was made captain after Prim and died during the summer along with Marlene moved over to her portrait

"Aww Prim and Nott had a baby, you know what that means Prim" James smiled wickedly

"That you and Nott had sex" Archer burst out laughing

"Quit it" she pushed them both out

"Look" he pulled out that same picture

"Merlin i'm a mother who would've thought"

Theodore over winter break went to his father for answers

"I know my mum was Primrose Avery, I know everyone think she died in a fire, I know she was head girl and I know she married Regulus Black"

"What a bright detective mind you have" His father dropped the conversation

"Mate look i've asked my mum and your family is definitely hiding something" Draco said as he sat down next to him in the common room

"It's my father, I know it" He looked into the flames

"Listen Theo I got this picture from my mothers room" Pansy pulled out a picture

"There's your mum I think this is her wedding"
