CHAPTER EIGHT

"W-what makes sense? James?"

"You're not from this time. I'm not as stupid as I look Jasmine, When you dyed your hair blonde you turned into the spitting image of my mum Euphimia. You just said to yourself your name was Jasmine Lily Potter, since the moment you laid eyes on me and Lily you've been trying to set us up,"

"You say you're a transfer from Ilvemorny yet you have a British accent. We mention a vague map and you know straight away what it is. We didn't introduce you to Peter, you already knew him. Jasmine is a type of flower and the first two letters match my name."

"You've been so reluctant with your feelings towards Padfoot because you know a different him. You refuse to tell me your blood type and you talk to Slytherins as though it was the most natural thing in the world."

"And, did you really think I wouldn't notice Remus was acting differently towards you when it was yours truly who figured out he was a werewolf?"

Jas' lips parted slightly in surprise, "O-okay... so you really aren't as stupid as you look. Wow. Uhh..."

She shifted on her feet awkwardly while running a hand through her hair,

"Surprise...?"

***

"I don't know what you want me to say, Harry."

"Say you can bring her back."

Hermione sighed and dropped the book she had been reading onto the desk. "Harry... Mcgonagall has already said she comes back. There's no need to go through all this." The green eyed boy sat down in frustration, "Look, Jasmine will never be able to handle looking at the faces of the people she watched die, and then laugh with them. It'll kill her!"

The real Granger put a comforting hand on his shoulder. "I'm sorry but, to bring her back to this time we'd need the blood of your father, mother, uncle, aunt, grandmother, grandfather, a cousin, sibling and her own."

Harry sprung to his feet, making Hermione jump. Maybe, it was a long shot, but just maybe... "Hermione, if we needed all that to bring her here, wouldn't she of needed all of it back then?"

"Well, yes I suppose..."

"Then what are the chances that she knew I would question the colour of the time turner, knew that I'd get you, and knew you would tell me all that?"

"Harry, what are you getting at?"

"What if she's already collected all that blood for us and hid it so only we could find?"

"If you're suggesting..."

"Time to pay Myrtle a visit."

***

Jas' heart was beating a million miles per hour as she watched James soak in her confirmation. They had yet to move from the door to the headmasters office, and her fathers silence was killing her.

Would he shout at her like Remus?

Ask her questions about the future?

Would he-

"So does this... make you my-?"

Jasmine nodded slowly. "H-hey... dad..."

Silence.

Nobody moved and a terrible sinking feel appeared in Jas' stomach. Of course it was too much to hope he'd just laugh it off, how could she have been so stupid to of said all that stuff out loud?

James heitated for a moment before walking forward. He stopped in front of Jasmine before breaking out into a grin and pulling her into his embrace. "So this means I get Evans, right?"

Jas giggled, relief washing over. For a split second she was terrified he was going to yell at her or something. "Y-yeah... you know... when I first met you I almost thought you were Harry." James pulled away and studied her, his eyes shone with happiness and he didn't stop smiling. "Harry? Your brother? Mother of Merlin I have two kids!"

Jas laughed again, feeling the previous weight lift off her chest. How could she go when she was given a once in a life time opportunity to know her parents? She nodded, "Twins. Harry James Potter and, of course, Jasmine Lily Potter." He chuckled and then whooped loudly in the middle of the hallway. James had an exhilarated look on his face as he ran his fingers through his hair. "I can't believe it! I get Evans! And two kids! Wait wait, how old was I when this happend?"

Jasmine frowned slightly in thought, "Well... I know m-mum was nineteen when she got pregnant, twenty when we were born. And you guys were already married by that point... and Pro- Remus said you guys started going out in seventh year so..."

"Yes! Yes! Yes! Oh man, I get Evans!"

Jas began to giggle again as her father did some kind of weird dance around the hallway, which made him resemble a monkey greatly.

"This- this is- this is fantastic!" He cried, clutching his unruly black hair. He turned back to his daughter, she was smiling wildly but had watery eyes. "What? What is it?.. w-wait... you said your godfather died... who-?" Jas quickly turned away to wipe her eyes. "Oh, um, er,"

She cursed herself in her mind, there was no way she was gonna tell him that everyone was dead. Even if she had to lie. "W-well, Harry's godfather was S-siruis, of course, but uh- Mum convinced you to make... Snape my godfather?" She ended in a small voice. James' eyes widend. "You're joking..." She shook a deep breath before inhaling deeply.

"No, I'm not. And he does a damn good job of it too! He became the potions professor here at Hogwarts and because mum was willing to give him a second chance, he came back over to our side and became a spy for Dumbledore. He was one of the main reasons we won this war, along with Regulus. He did the right thing too. D-died a hero... They both did."

James fell silent as tears continued to trickle down the girls face. "Oh, Jazzy..." He hugged her again as she tried to wipe away her tears. "I-I'm fine. Didn't you hear? We won!"

The boy blinked blankly, "We won..? WE WON!?" Jas dramatically placed her hands over her ears. "You know, I rather did like hearing." She whispered. He laughed. "This is amazing. I get the girl of my dreams, two kids and Voldemort dies."

"At a cost." A voice came. They both turned to see Remus. Jasmines eyes widend in panic but the werewolf shot her a reassuring look. "What do you mean?"

"There was a prophecy made about your kids..." He began. Jas' heart rate picked up again, he wouldn't, would he? Surely Remus knew he couldn't... "That neither could live while the other survived. He tried to kill them but because you and Lily were willing to sacrafice yourselves for them, the curse rebounded."

Jasmine tilted her head to the side in confusion, what was he doing? Why didn't he say how they died and how they were betrayed? "It destroyed the dark lords mortal form and sent him fleeing for his life. Because of that your kids were known as the chosen two. They killed him."

She flushed as James looked at her again, his gaze held absolute adoration for his daughter. "T-that's a bit far fetched... we had plenty of help! From Dumbledore, Mad-Eye, Tonks, Mcgonagall, Siruis, Hermione, Ron, Mrs Weasley, Mr Weasley, Luna, the Order, Snape, Regulus, Kingsley, the twins, Neville, Longbottom that is, Harry's girlfriend-"

"Woah woah, hold up. Tonks? As in Siruis' cousin? And Alice and Frank have a kid? Also, HARRY'S GOT A GIRLFRIEND!?" Jas winced, "Please stop yelling! Good Merlin you really are Harry's dad."

"First off, Tonks as in Nymphodora Tonks, Andromedas kid. She becomes an auror, and," She continued with a sly smirk, shooting Remus a look. "She marries this one. They have a kid together and everything. Teddy's awesome." Lupin turned scarlett, he knew he had a kid, but he knew nothing about Nymphodora. "Wicked.. Siruis is gonna kill you!"

"Oh yeah?" The werewolf grumbled, "And what are you gonna do about your bestfriend and daughters relationship?" Jas coughed loudly. "Moving on! Neville was sorted into Gryffindor the same year as me and Harry. He led the rebellion at Hogwarts to do his parents proud, he's training to become a professor now though. Has a knack for Herbology."

"And Harry's girlfriend is Ginny Weasley. She's not born yet, she was a year younger than us and a fellow Gryffindor. Red-head too." James beamed proudly, Remus' remark earlier forgotten. "Really? Like father like son than." His expression suddenly turned serious.

"Now, what about you? Any boyfriends I should know about?"

"Only Siruis." Remus joked, Jasmine blushed.

"Ah, how about we don't talk about-"

"Now listen here, young lady."

"Here we go. For your information, Harry has already given me 'the talk'. It was awkward as heck and I don't wish to relieve it."

"Why didn't I?"

"Because he beat you to it." She answered promptly.

"Yeah, well. You're gonna have to, do you know how much older than you he is little missy!?"

"Technically I'm older than him."

"What?"

"I've been alive on this earth longer than he has."

"How old are you exactly?"

"Almost nineteen."

"WHAT?"

"Holy shit you're short."

"Hey! Not my fault I'm standing next to Mr six foot three over here." Jas snapped, eyeing the Lycanthropic. "Also, why is Harry applauded for having younger girlfriend but it's frowned upon for me to even look in another guys direction!?"

James fell silent, looking at her warily. "Well, you're definitely Lily's. You win this round Queenie. But no snogging!"

Jasmine scoffed and flicked her hair over her shoulder. "I'm older than you too in case you've forgotten. I'm also closer to mum than you." Her father muttered under his breath darkly.

Remus decided to speak and cleared his throat. "Why did you run away earlier?" Jas hesitated and looked up as Siruis and Dumbledore walked around the corner. The dark haired boy looked at her apprehensively, almost like he was afraid he'd done something wrong.

Jasmine gave him a reassuring grin as she made up her mind. Releif flooded his expression and he grinned back. "Nothing. Nothing I should dwell on anyway."
