"Belle"

My son jumped on me with an excited expression on his face. He hugged me and took my hand and led me to the fire place to get ready to go.

"Wait, where is she?" He said calming his breathing for a second. "She's living at the grangers home." His jaw dropped and covered his mouth. "Wait... WHAT! My sister is a Granger and the only Granger I know is... oh my god... HERMIONE GRANGER!" He looked like he was hyperventilating so I quickly gave him a glass of water. He downed it quickly and took a deep breath in. "Yes dear, it's hermione."

He walked over with me to the fire place once again. This time we actually proceeded to walk in the pebbles of rocks and grabbed some floor powder and hanged onto me tight, before he threw down the powder. We were exposed to a nice lovely home with an embracing family in the living room.

Hermione's POV

We were there embracing each other until I heard a crack behind me. I saw a dark skinned woman with the one and only Blaise Zabini. What is he doing here. Oh right! I'm his twin sister, life is great!

B- Now little sis is that the way to be talking to your big bro?

I look up and see him sniggering next to my biological mother. He cocked up his eyebrow and put his hands in his pockets and put his smirk on his face. I swear I will punch that off one day?

B- Is that so?

I growled at him but my anger was interrupted by a big bear hug. I embraced her like it was the end of the world. She smelt like pineapples, which is my favourite fruit. Huh.. that's a coincidence. We pulled away and she started to speak.

"Oh how I've waited for this moment" she said once hugging me again.

"Me too... mother." I said uncomfortably, being used to calling mrs granger my mum.

"Now, I assume the grangers have already told you about why I left you here" I nodded in response and she gave me a warm smile. "Mother, is my name hermione or something else?" She cleared her throat and said, "no my dear, your real name is Belle Narcissa Zabini. I named you belle because her name represents beauty and herself, the princess, shows that some princes aren't always charming in looks. And for Narcissa, well, shes been my best friend since Hogwarts and made her your middle name in honour." " it's a beautiful name" I said. " well why don't you get to know your twin brother while I go speak to grangers in private. I nodded and waited for them to leave so I could put my anger face on them again.

"How did you do that?" I asked trying to hold myself back. "Do what?" He said rather innocently. "You know.. the talking in my head thing." I said really awkwardly, man hermione get your self together.

B- yeah hermione, get it together!

My head shot up. "See you just did it again, right there!, what are you doing with my head do you know legilimency?" He shook his head said, "No we have twin telepathy, we can talk to each other in our heads." "Then how come I can't do it?"
He took my hand which I flinched at but eased into it. He sat me down on the couch and got into my head again.

B- just focus on what you want to say and don't think too hard, just ease the moment.

I nodded and I already had in mind what I wanted to say. I was going to say something that he wouldn't want to hear me say in a thousand years. I sniggered before focusing.

H- I know you like Ginny!.

I cocked up my eyebrow and imitated his smirk. Oh how payback is sweet.

B- how did you know!
H- oh please it's really obvious. The way you look at her and the way you talk about her when your insulting, I can see deep down it's hurting you. Wait! You're not denying it so it's true?
B- yes it's true, but you can't tell anyone about this!
H- it's cool bro, your secret is safe with me.

"At least not for long" I whispered. "
