Chapter 1: PROLOUGE
Ron stood at the alter, outside in his backyard, waiting for the wedding to begin.
The music began and the best man and brides maid, his sister, escorted by Harry, walked down the isle, Harry and Ginny slowly made their way down the isle, they parted and stepped off to the side. The wedding march began and the family at the small wedding stood as Hermione made her way slowly down the isle in her beautiful long, white gown. Her belly very large, being 7 months pregnant.
They began making thier vows and soon said their "I Do's." and kissed. Ron and Hermione made their way down the isle as the people clapped and they headed to the other side of the yard for the Wedding Reception.
Harry escorted Ginny back down the isle. When they reached the end Harry pulled Ginny off to one side.
"Come with me." Harry whispered, softly into Ginny's ear.
Ginny giggled and whispered back, "Alright."
Harry took hold of Ginny's hand and led her off to the beautiful gazebo, in the yard. He saw his father, James, wink, knowingly to Harry, and his mother smile brightly. His parents went to the reception with the rest of the famiy. Harry also noticed that Mr. and Mrs. Weasley were exchanging knowing looks, but proceded to the Reception.
Harry pulled her inside the gazebo. They sat on the white bench and Harry began to speak, "Gin, I have known you as long that I have known I was a wizard. I am the luckiest man in the World to have you, and I never want to loose you."
Ginny smiled. 'I think I know what's coming next!' Ginny thought excitedly in her mind.
"Ginny, I love you with all my heart and I want to be with you forever. So, I am asking you." Harry said.
He reached his hands into his dress robe pocket, lowered himself on one knee and continued, "Ginerva Molly Weasley, will you marry me?"
Ginny gasped, "Yes!"
She fell from the bench to her knees, so she was level with Harry and flung her arms around him.
"Oh, Harry! Yes!" Ginny said, through tears of happiness.
Harry nuzzled his head into her shoulder, tears falling down his face too, and whispered, "Oh, Ginny, I love you."
They pulled away and had to wipe their eyes from the tears of happiness. Harry opened the box and Ginny gasped again.
Sitting in the box was a beautiful, enormous, Diamond Ring. Harry took the ring from the box and slipped it on her thin finger. Ginny smiled at it and once again flung herself on Harry, kissing him fiercely.
The newly engaged couple walked out of the gazebo and headed to the Reception, hand-in-hand. The family at the wedding knew of what Harry had planned for Ginny and smiled. It was a small wedding. Just the Potter's, all Weasley's, Remus and Tonks, and Sirius. Ron and Hermione were cutting the cake when Harry and Ginny took a seat at a table with Lily and James.
Ron fed a fork of cake to Hermione as she did the same, both chuckling half to death, in the process The family got up and made their way to the cake. They got a pile of cake on each plate and ate happily, talking with one another.
Hermione came over to Ginny and saw the glittering ring on her finger. "Ginny!"
"What?!!" Ginny asked, having no clue of why Hermione was so surprised.
"Di-Did...Did Harry propose?!!?!?" Hermione asked.
Ginny blushed and said, "Yes."
The family cheered and Hermione hugged Ginny. Harry wrapped an arm around Ginny smiling down at his wonderful future-wife.
Lily and James looked at the engaged couple and smiled. They reminded them so much of theirselves when they were their age.
Mrs. Weasley was absolutely weeping with happiness. She was having trouble getting the fact to her head that she didn't have a child, who didn't have a spouse, feyonce, or girlfriend(not including Percy, she hadn't been intouch with him in ages, because of his horrible act of having a family). Then Bill and Fleur were already married, and had a two year old daughter. Charlie was going out with a girl who he had met in Romania by the name of Riley. George was engaged to Katie Bell, and Fred was married to Angelina Johnson(now Weasley), and she was pregnant with her first child.
They celebrated the newlyweds and the engaged couple for many hours before heading into the Burrow for a relaxing afternoon.
*********
Two months later two new borns were taken into the family. Ron and Hermione had given birth to two georgous children...a girl and a boy. They named the brown headed girl Jane the red head boy, Michael. Another two months passed and Ginny was getting ready for her and Harry's big day.
"Lily!!!! Help me!!!" Ginny screamed down the stairs from her room.
"Why!?!? Isn't your mother doing just fine?" came another call from downstairs which, Ginny noticed was not Lily's, but James'. She figured Harry's parents were up to another snog on their couch again.
"No, James!! She's going to kill me!!" Ginny screamed down again, trying hard to hold her hair in ther head, as her mother tried vastly to comb Ginny's hair, and making Ginny put her dress on the right way, for her 4th attempt. Each attempt putting it on a different way, that was completely lopsided.
"Ohh-you'll-make...do,-dear." came, Lily's voice from downstairs, between kisses with James.
"Honestly Ginny! You can't even put a dress on! The wedding is in 20 minutes!" came Mrs. Weasley's voice, as she missed Ginny's head with the comb and, swiped it in mid-air as Ginny fell to the floor in another attempt to put her dress on.
"Mom! It's called magic!!" Ginny said.
"Oh, fine. You do your own do! People aren't going to blame me if you look bad for your wedding!" and she scurried out of her room, muttering words under her breath, and to go see if Fred and George hadn't already began digging into the abnormally large wedding cake, before the wedding even began.
"Thank you!" Ginny yelled to her mother, and she picked up her wand from the nightstand and waved it, the dress slipped over her head gracefully and her hair began to curl itself and hairspray was conjured out of mid-air and began to spary her head furiously, as it twisted itself into an elegant bun on top of her head, leaving a few loose curls hanging down.
"There! So much quicker!" Ginny exclamied. "Oh! You come see my hair now mum!" Ginny screamed back down the hall as she admired herself in the mirror.
"Ohhh. Im not gonna see you now!" her mother screamed back up, "Fred and George! I am ashamed! Get out of the cake now! Ugh! Why not go find your wives!?!!?! Huh!?!"
Ginny chuckled at her brother's and her mother.
************
As the music began Ginny came down the isle, in her beautiful gown and Harry gasped. His soon-to-be-wife looked absolutely georgous, and he couldn't wait to get her alone. He smiled and mouthed an 'I love you.' that she mouthed back.
As she stopped next to Harry he took her hand and they began their vows. Later as they said 'I do.' they kissed passionately and the crowd from their wedding cheered and they went into the garden for the reception.
Ginny looked at the cake her brothers had attempted to eat, and it looked fine, obviously her mother had rebaked and repaired whatever had been eaten, much to Fred and George's dissapointment. Harry and Ginny raised the knife and cut into the cake, they each took a piece from the cake and fed each other a bite, laughing hysterically as they did so. Ginny looked at the icing on her finger and dotted it on Harry's nose. He laughed and pulled her to him, kissing her.
For many hours the family, now tied as one, celebrated the newlyweds, dancing in the Potter's backyard, talking, and eating happily, together.
As Harry and Ginny danced toghether, they took in the wonderful feeling and finally understanding that they were married, they were together for the rest of their lives. This thought brought a smile to both of them.
Harry hugged Ginny closer as they danced slowly to a soft music, and he rested his head on her's and sighed, happily. "Im so happy, Gin."
"Aw, me too Harry." Ginny replied, smelling Harry's strong colonge, "I love you, Harry. So much."
"I love you too, Gin." Harry replied. As their wedding song ended they pulled away then went over to the side to visit with Harry's parents.
"Hey, son. We are so happy for you and Ginny." James said, with Lily, crying happily, on his lap.
"Yes, we really are. Come with us. We have a present for both of you." Lily said, getting up from James' lap.
James looked shock at his wife as if, 'How dare she enterupt my fire whiskey time!'"Awww. Now? Hun, let me finish my fire whiskey!!"
"You can have more fire whiskey after we show them." Lily said, then she leaned down and whispered something into James' ear. "Ooh, frisky tonight are we?" James replied.
Lily chuckled and winked at him. "Aww, mum. Come on. We don't need to see you shag, even if we know your gonna shag later tonight." Harry said, rolling his eyes, and Ginny trying to hide her laughter, as she clasped against Harry's chest.(it was obvious she was laughing)
Lily stuck her tounge out at Harry and pulled James up from his seat, who kind of wabbled some at first.
"Come on." Lily said.
"Wait!" replied Ginny. "I have to toss my boquet.
"Alright, everybody Im tossing!!" Ginny screached to the family, as if very impatient, which surprised Mrs. Weasley, as she thought, Now, how in the world did I come to raise a child like that?!?! tsk tsk, on her.
All the women gathered in the center of the yard, Ginny turned and tossed it. Fred leaped into the women and caught the boquet, and George came in and tried to take it.
"No, its mine!!!" Fred screamed.
George screeched like a banshee and attmepted to bite his hands, but not before yelling, "No! Their my pretty flowers."
"Boys!!! You have wives!!!" came Mrs. Weasley's voice from somewhere.
"Oh, right." They both replied and Fred tossed it, and Luna, on the guard, caught it. She smiled brightly and Neville hugged her from behind.
Ginny smiled and said, "Were coming, Luna!"
Luna smiled and kissed Neville.(their engaged)
Lily smiled at Luna and Neville and said, "Alright. Come on."
"We have to walk some." James said, holding Lily's hand as they made their way down the street.
"Why? Where are we walking to?" Harry asked, "Couldn't we just apparate?"
"No...not here." Lily giggled.
Ginny smiled at Harry and held his hand as the four walked down the dark street. After about 15 minutes of walking they stopped in front of a large open space, with flat land and Lily said, "This is it."
"Wh-...what is it?" Harry asked. 'Am I supposed to be happy their giving us a huge chunk of land?' he thought.
Lily slapped James in the stomach and said, "You idiot, you were supposed to take the charm off!"
"Ow! Right, sorry flower." James replied, as he drew out his wand and waved it.
As if there were a large invisibility cloak over it, it whipped away and releaved a large white manor, with a beautiful front garden, and a sign by the front door that said, 'Mr. and Mrs. Harry Potter.'
Ginny leaped into Harry's arms as she saw the beautiful house, tears beginning to form in her eyes. Harry stroked Ginny's hair, as he smiled at the house. Harry finally choked out, "Mum-...Dad, its beautiful. Thank you."
Lily smiled happily and said, "We thought you would like it."
Ginny left Harry's arms and went to hug Lily. Harry went and hugged James and hugged Lily too.
"We'll leave you two alone for the night." James said.
Harry smiled at his parents, and in one quick motion, he scooped Ginny up in his arms as she laughed and carried her into the house.
James wrapped his arm around Lily's waist and said, "They remind me some much of us when we were young." as Harry and Ginny disappeard behind the door to the large house.
Lily slapped James in the stomach again. "James Potter! What do you mean when we WERE YOUNG!" Lily screamed.
"Oh. Sorry, love." James squeaked out.
Lily had a furious look planted on her face and yelled, "We still are young!"
"Why not prove it to me, baby." James said, huskily, and Lily raised her eyebrows. 'Wrong approach maybe.' he thought.
"How about that Fire whiskey, ehh?" James said, sarcastically, darastically changing the subject.
"James." Lily began, but James had already hurtled down the street, screaming at the top of his lungs, "Mad woman's going to Rape me!! Rape me I tell you! Wait no, I WANT to shag Lily again!!"
And he stopped screaming and running. He turned around, and ran back towards Lily, he picked her up, ran down the street with her, and they disappeared behind their manor door.
Chapter 2: 14 Years Later
I also want to thank those of you who began reading this story from the first chapter, and having to wait for every validation and all that stuff in between before the next chapter. It makes me swell with pride that you had to wait that long for the next chapter and came back and continued! And...now your reading the sequel.
Thanks so much to everyone!
Ok...well. It might be hard for some people so I'm just gonna do it now. James Potter II(Harry and Ginny's son. goes by Jamie, James or Prongs Junior) then James Potter I(married to Lily and goes by either James or Prongs.) The beginning of this chapter is like a re-cap of the past fourteen years for the family.
Disclaimer: I don't own anything, everything belongs to the Great J.K. Rowling. I only own the children in the family, the next generation.
The next fourtneen years were wonderful for the large family. Soon after Harry and Ginny's marraige, Ginny found out that she was pregnant, and nine months later, gave birth a beautiful black haired, hazel eyed boy, that they named James. Two years after James was born they gave birth to another child, this time a red head, brown eyed girl, by the name of Molly.
James was unlike his father and grandfather...he never needed glasses. Which in James' opinion, he thought 'YESS! No glasses! No glasses! No glasses for Prongsie Jr!!' As he did his happy dance inside but Harry and James(the older one, Harry's father) were both disapointed. Every man in the Potter line had had the black circle shaped glasses up to Prongs number 1's great grandfather.
They loved their two children with all their hearts, and almost every day, a family would choose one house to have lunch and dinner. They would either choose Mr. and Mrs. Weasley's, Ron and Hermione's, Remus and Nymphadora Lupin, James and Lily Potter or Harry and Ginny's house. They were all one big family. The family would gather at that house...and well...be a family!
Even though they already had two children...it just didn't seem enough. So a year after...Harry and Ginny gave birth to their last child, a sweet red head, green eyed girl named Lily. That same year Ron and Hermione had another child, a red head brown eyed girl, that they named Hannah.
The Weasleys and the Potters were best freinds. James' best friend was Michael, and Jane...well Jane, Michael's twin sister hung out with the boys over the summer, but at Hogwarts she had her own girl friends, by the names of Angela Weasley, her Aunt Angelina and Uncle Fred's daughter, then a Laura Longbottom, whose parents were Neville and Luna Longbottom. Hannah and Lily were also best friends, and Molly's best friend was Bill and Fleur's second daughter Raine.
The only one who did not have a best friend that was a Potter was Bill and Fleur's first child named Leah. She had an odd hair color. She had hazel eyes, and redish, brownish straight hair, that flowed down her back like a sheet of silk. It was obvious that the veela in Fleur had gone to Leah, but the Weasley red hair had also tired to get in there, making her hair an odd, but beautiful and unique color.
Leah was not like her mother, Fleur. Sure she loved all the girly things, and all the guys in her year thought she was the hottest girl in their year, but she was also very intrested in Quidditch and ever since her second year she had been a chaser on the Gryffindor team.
Hermione became a healer at St. Mungo's and Ron, Harry, and Ginny formed a new professional quidditch team, that they named the London Lions. It was all original Gryffindors who attended Hogwarts, and were undefeatable. Every year they made it to the Quidditch World Cup, and won. Soon Viktor Krum was no longer known as best seeker in the world...that place had been snatched by none other than Harry Potter. Harry was...of course seeker. Ginny was a chaser along with Katie Bell(now Weasley), and Dean Thomas. Ron was keeper and the beaters were...the absolute best out there...Fred and George.
They had made a new model of broom after the Firebolt, a few years later. They named it after Harry, but he was not very appreciative of what they named it. They named it the Lightning Bolt, after his scar. Sure, Harry was proud of killing Voldemort, but to do it after his scar.
All reminders of Voldemort to him, his scar had been a horcrux, but the horcrux was destroyed the night Harry also destroyed Voldemort. His scar was the only mark he had from Voldemort attempting to kill him...part of the reason he was famous in the first place. He never approved of his scar and it made him even more famous. His parents, Lily and James, didn't approve either.
**
It was September first, the day that the Hogwart's Express left King's Cross Station for a new term every year. Jamie, Michael, Jane and Angela were entering their fourth year, Leah her, sixth year. Molly and Raine their second year, then Lily and Hannah...their first year.
****
"Mummy, Daddy! I go to Hogwarts today! I go to Hogwarts today!!" an 11 year old red head girl, with stunning green eyes came into Harry and Ginny's bedroom, jumping on their bed.
"Lily, we know that. What time is it?" Ginny mumbled.
"It's 8 o'clock, mummy!" Lily yelled, waking up her dad. "Daddy! I go to Hogwarts today!"
"That's wonderful sweetheart, go wake up your brother." Harry mumbled, wrapping his arm around Ginny, and pulling her closer to him, if that were even possible.
"Icky. Mushy gushy parents! JAMIE, JAMIE!" Lily screamed running out of her parent's bedroom and into her brother's down the hall.
Lily entered James' room. It was all red and gold, covered in posters of his parents, uncles, and the rest of the London Qudditch Team. His favorite poster was of his father catching the snitch at the Quidditch World Cup against Ireland.
"What do you want?!?!" James yelled, in a furious voice covering his head with his gold satin pillow.
"The train leaves in 3 hours!! 3 hours!!" Lily yelled jumping on her 14 year old brother.
"I know that!!! Go wake up mum and dad. Not me!" James said, throwing the pillow to the floor and diving under the red covers.
"Tempermental!! I already did!!" Lily yelled.
James' muffled voice came from under the covers and said, "Go wake up Molly then."
"Okay!" Lily yelled jumping off of James' bed and running down the Hall.
Harry left his and Ginny's room, and caught Lily just in time as she ran past him.
"Woa, woah. Where do you think your going, sweety." Harry asked her.
"Wake up Molly!" Lily yelled kind of in a lunatic voice, but Harry could tell that she was just excited to finally going to Hogwarts. It tore at her heart every year that they got to go to Hogwarts before she did. 'If only I was born six years earlier...then I would be first! But I would have to go with Leah too!' she thought inwardly. She first saw Leah board the Hogwart's Express, then when James and finally Molly last year. It was finally her turn.
"Shh. No need to yell, I'm right here." Harry said.
"Sorry, Dad. Im just so excited that I finally get to go to Hogwarts! It's already gonna be James' 4th year there! Leah's 6th!" Lily yelled.
"I know, but atleast you knew about Hogwarts before you actually went, I found out a week before school started, that I was a wizard." Harry said.
Lily huffed loudly, and sounded like she was sad for her father, which she was sad for his horrible child hood. "I know, Daddy."
"Now go shower, and get dressed. By the time your done, Mummy and I will have breakfast done then you can eat. Then the Weasley's will come over, okay?" Harry asked Lily.
"All of them??" Lily asked, in a slight calmer voice, but still very loony. She grumbled and said, "There's so many! I can't remember all of them."
Harry laughed, "No, Lils. Not all of them. Just Aunt Hermione, Uncle Ron, Jane, Michael, and Hannah. We aren't meeting up with Uncle Fred or George or Bill or Aunt Katie or Angelina or Fleur." he took a big breath once he had finished naming off all of Lily's aunts and uncles, but he had to agree with her. There were alot, and sometimes it was quiet hard to remember all of them, his neices and nephews atleast.
"Ohh! Yayy!" Lily said.
Harry laughed and said, "Now go shower, wake up your sister too."
"Okay, Dad." Lily said, giving Harry a kiss on the cheek then entering Molly's room.
"Good morning, love." came a woman's smooth voice.
Harry spun around and saw Ginny standing in their doorway. "Good morning, Gin. Did you sleep good?"
"Yes, I did. How about you?" she asked.
"Pretty well." He said, approaching her and giving her a deep kiss.
She pulled away and said, "Seems like Lily is excited about going to Hogwarts."
"Yes she is." Harry said.
"Im gonna go shower."
"Alright." Harry said, giving her a quick kiss. He headed down the stairs and gave his wand a flick. Food began to prepare itself for breakrast. He sat down at the table, and drank his coffee while reading the Daily Prophet.
"G'Morning, Dad." came a girl's tired voice.
"Good morning, Molly. Did you sleep good?" Harry asked his other daughter, 12 years old, red hair, and beautiful brown eyes.
"Yes." she said, rubbing her eyes, and still in her pyjamas. She walked over to Harry and gave him a hug.
"Do you want some breakfast?" he asked her.
"Yes please." she said, taking a seat at the table.
"What would you like?" Harry said, dropping the Prophet and getting up.
She bit her lip, as the think then replied to her father, "Umm...orange juice, and...Dad, can I have donuts?"
"Uhh...you have been eating alot of donuts lately but I guess you can have some. Just don't tell your mother how many you ate, alright. 2 is the tops you can tell her. Alright? She's got something up with those donuts." Harry said, getting the donuts out of the cupboard.
"Thank you, Dad. How many can I have?" she asked, a bright smile on her face.
Harry looked at her simply, as if saying, 'What kind of father do you think I am??!'but stuck with saying out loud, "As many as you want."
"Oooh! Thanks, Dad." Molly said, taking the donuts from Harry.
"No problem, sweetheart. Now, Im gonna go shower now. Your mother should be down soon." he said, kissing her head.
"Okay." she said.
Harry went up the stairs and down the hall. He popped his head into James' room to make sure he was up...but he wasn't. Harry sighed, and went into his son's red and gold bedroom. Infact James was completely under the covers his head at the wrong end of the bed, mumbling loudly.
"James, you should be up by now. Are you gonna shower before you go to Hogwarts?" Harry asked him, sitting down on his bed.
Harry could tell that he shrugged his shoulders from under the covers and gave more grumbles.
"Hmm, well you should shower before you go. Aunt Hermione and Uncle Ron should be here in about 30 minutes, alright? You need to be up, ready, and with your trunk downstairs by 10:30." Harry said.
"Mmm-hmm." James mumbled.
Harry got up and left James' room, and headed to his. He entered his and Ginny's bathroom, and saw Ginny doing her hair. Harry leaned against the door way and watched her brush her hair, her eyes closed as she hummed softly.
Everytime he was able to do that, just watch her when she doesn't know he's there, his heart filled up with so much love that he couldn't even explain. He knew that Ginny was the one for him in every way possible. She was also beautiful to him in every way. Sometimes he wondered why clothes were even invented, if she looked so good out of them.
He gave another sigh as his heart filled up with that love, and Ginny's eyes opened softly. She smiled and said, "You like just standing there, huh?"
He came up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist. As she admired her curls in the mirror, forgetting her previous question. Any time she was wrapped in her husbands arms, it seemed like nothing else in the world mattered, like it was only her and Harry, and that she could do anything. "I like your hair like that."
"Thank you, Harry." Ginny said. "Im trying new things, rather than just leaving it the plain striaght it is."
Harry smiled and kissed her, passionately. As he picked her up, and she wrapped her legs around him, she felt as light as a feather, having 3 children had not done anything to her physical features, she still looked as if she were 20. He pulled away from their kiss and rested his head on her shoulder, taking in her sweet smell of lavender that he never got tired of. His hands left around her waist an up the back of her shirt.
"Care for another shower?" Harry asked in a husky voice.
Ginny giggled and said, "What about the kids?"
"They'll be fine." Harry said, as he nipped at her neck, as if in a persuasive tone.
Ginny giggeled, and said."Is Molly up yet?"
"Yeah, Gin. She's down stairs eating, and Lily should be down soon. Jamie is still in bed, but I told him he has to be up, ready and trunk down stairs by 10:30."
"Sounds good. Your such a good father."
"Well thank you. I couldn't be a father if it hadn't been for you." Harry said, his hand coming up her shirt.
"I couldn't be a mother if it weren't for you either." Ginny laughed. They both laughed, and Ginny said, "I love you, Harry."
"I love you too, Gin. Now I need to shower." Harry said, setting Ginny back on the ground, carefully, and beginning to take off his clothes.
Ginny watched him, and gave in with a sigh. She watched him dissappear behind the shower curtain, and she yelled over the running water, "Your too persuasive." and she took of her newly put on and clean clothes, climbing into the shower behind him.
*****
"Well, good morning, Molly. How many donuts have you had?" Ginny asked, kissing Molly on the head, 30 minutes later, after her 'shower' with Harry.
"This is my second, mum." Molly said, with a full mouth of the chocolate donut that was shoved in there. 'Hehe. Not really! This is my 7th! Hee! I love my daddy
"Molly! Don't talk with your mouth full! Okay then, that's your last one. You may have something else if you want." Ginny said, making herself a cup of coffee.
"Nah. Orange juice always fills me up for some reason. I'll go shower now." Molly said.
"Okay then. Hurry your sister out of there, she's been in there for about 40 minutes. It's not like she's getting married or has a hott-date. She's only 11." Ginny said, reading the prophet.
"Mm-kay." Molly said, before going up the stairs. As Ginny read the prophet she heard Molly scream up the stairs, "Lily! Get out of the shower!! Why do I have to share a shower with you, who takes 45 minutes for a bloody shower! Mum says to hurry up, your not getting married or have a hott-date."
Ginny laughed at her daughter's sarcasm and yelled up the stairs to "Molly, honey, I'm sure she can't hear you."
Molly snorted and yelled to her mother, "Oh well. I know, but it doesn't hurt."
The doorbell rang and a red piece or parchment floated down from the ceiling, Ginny grabbed it and read, 'Mr and Mrs. Ron Weasley, Jane, Michael and Hannah Weasley.'
"Its the Weasley's." Ginny yelled up stairs. She got up from the table and headed to the front door. She opened it and was greeted by 3 red heads, and 2 burnetts.
"Heey! How are my favorites neices and nephew?" Ginny asked them.
"Good, Aunt Gin." Michael said.
"Come in. Jane, I love your hair. Did you get it cut?" Ginny asked her.
"Yes." She replied.
"Its very nice." Ginny said.
"Thanks Aunt Gin." Jane said.
"Where's James?" Michael asked Ginny.
"You know he is still in bed. Why don't you go wake him up? Tell him you want a Quiddtich Game before we leave. That'll get him up. Even though we have absolutely no time for that. Your aunt is evil." Ginny joked to Michael.
"Okay." Michael said, and went up the stairs and screamed, "JAMES!! GET UP!!!! I wanna play Quidditch in your back yard before we leave."
"Sleepy head." Ginny mumbled, "Harry!! Ron and Hermione are here!"
"Be down in a minute, Gin." Harry called down.
Molly and Lily came down the stairs seconds later, each carrying their trunk.
"Good, now all we need is James and your father. Then we can leave." Ginny said.
James came trudging down the stairs, yawning, and carrying his trunk. "Sorry, mum."
"It's alright, Jamie, but your father told you to get up. You went back to bed didn't you?" Ginny asked him, and he nodded, then Ginny gave aweak smile and yelled to her husband. "HARRY!!"
All the Weasleys clamped their hands over their ears at Ginny's screach.
"I'm coming, I'm coming." He said, coming down the stairs.
"Alright, you know how to floo! Let's go to the train station." Hermione said.
**********
They flooed to the new room they had made at the train station for Hogwarts Students. They stepped out of the fireplace and left the room.
They found the barrier dividing platform's 9 and 10, once they were all through, Lily began to squeal again.
"Lily, calm down. You have been here every year, since Jamie first went to Hogwarts, the soonest you should be squealing is when you are actually on the train." Ginny said.
"Sorry, mum." Lily said.
"Why don't you all find a compartment and get your stuff loaded. Then come say goodbye. The train leaves in 15 minutes." Hermione said.
"Okay." the childern said, and they hurried onto the Hogwart's Express.
"Ron, was Hannah acting like Lily this morning?" Harry asked his best mate.
"She was worse, Harry. She was up at six, showering, fixing her hair, and yelling that she forgot something, not to mention that she thought Jane stole her lip gloss. Why is my 11 year-old daugher wearing make-up anyway?! Well she only wears that lip junk." Ron said.
"She's like her mother." Hermione said.
"She sure is." Ron said, rolling his eyes.
"Ron!" Hermione said, hitting him on the head.
"Lils is worried that she won't make any friends. Hannah already is her best friend. Same with Michael and James." Ginny said.
The kids came back off of the train a couple minutes later, and began saying their goodbyes.
"Dad, could I talk to you for a moment?" James asked Harry.
"Sure, son. What about?" Harry asked, putting a hand on James' shoulder and leading him away from the family.
"About...about a girl." James said.
"Ohh. Okay, fire ahead." Harry said.
"Well, there's this girl I like, and well she pretty much hates me. I like her so much, and she's so perfect. She's really smart, extremely beautiful, and even likes Quidditch. I don't know how to get her to like me. How did you get mum?" James said.
"Hmm. Your mother always liked me, just the name 'Famous Harry Potter' or 'The Boy Who Lived', but when she actually met me she liked, me for my personality, not because of what happened to me when I was an infant. I started liking her in my sixth year, and we dated that year. We've been together ever since. I really didn't have to win her." Harry said.
"But...I just dunno what to do." James said.
"You know what this sounds like?" Harry asked James, who nodded his head in a 'No' "This sounds just like Nana and Granddad. Nana used to hate your grandfaterh, but in their 7th year at Hogwarts, some how he won her, and they dated. When your on the train or once you get to Hogwarts, why don't you owl him. I'm sure he would love to help you."
"Thanks, Dad." James said, beginning to leave but Harry said, "Hold up son. I'm not letting you get away without telling me who this girl is."
"Her name is Laura." James said, "Laura Longbottom."
"Really? Longbottom." Harry said, "I went to school with a Longbottom. Who are her parents?" he asked, knowing perfectly well who they, were. Luna had mentioned a Laura when Ginny was giving birth to Molly.
"Neville and Luna Longbottom." James said.
"I know both of them. Both of them helped me a great deal in my 5th year. Neville was a gryffindor, in my year, and Luna was a Ravenclaw, in your mother's year." Harry said.
"Cool." James said.
"What house is she in? Hair color? Eyes?" Harry asked, sitting down on a bench next to James, getting intrested in the subject of 'Girls' even if it was with his own son, and a generation lowere from his.
"Gryffindor, brown hair, and blue eyes." James said.
"Thats a good combination." Harry said, "Like I said, I'm sorry I can't help you any with Laura, but feel free to owl Granddad, he would be very happy if you asked him that. What about Molly? Do you know who she likes?"
James smiled, "Yes. She likes a boy called Steven Finnigan in my year."
"Wow. You two like all the people who's parents I know. I know that Seamus married Lavender. They were both in my year in Gryffindor." Harry said.
The whistle began to blow from the train.
"Have a good year, son. Remember, you and your sisters are comming home for Christmas." Harry said, as the got up from the bench and waved to his son getting on the train.
"Bye, Dad!" Harry heard Molly cry from the train.
"Bye, Molly! Have a good year!" Harry yelled back to her.
Harry and Ginny waved to their children, sometimes they heard a first year or someone say and point out, "Look it's Harry Potter, who defeated Lord Voldemort!!"
"YEAH! That's my father your talking about!" James would yell, with a furious face, he knew Harry didn't like people refering to him as 'The One who Defeated the Dark Lord.'; 'The Boy Who lived' or anything of the sort.
Harry laughed and sighed, "That's my boy."
The train began moving and soon turned a corner. Harry turned to Ginny and saw that she had tears in her eyes. "Ginny, why are you crying?"
"Because our last child, is finally going to Hogwarts. The house is going to be so quiet now." Ginny said.
"Aww. Its all right. Just think...more alone time." Harry said, wiggling his eye brows.
Ginny laughed, and kissed him sweetly.
"Looks like Ron and Hermione have already left. I hope Ron remembers that we have Quidditch Practice in an hour." Harry said.
"The top priorites on Ron's mind are Food, His Children, Hermione, and Quidditch. I don't think he could forget, Harry." Ginny said.
"Your probably right. Come on, let's go have some 'Alone Time' before Practice." Harry said in a husky voice.
