A/N
So, this will be the last story I post that's not a one shot for a long while.
My Lcie and the wizard fans, next chapter is almost done.
Then I will update one or both of my RWBY stories, been getting a lot of feedback for those.
Then comes fleurs second chance
And finally we will circle around to Lightning.
That's my basic overview, i hope you enjoy.
Also, I have been recieving a lot of flames about bashing Ron. I've stated before, I despise Ron. He is just another Dudley, but for some reason Harry is his friend. He is an idiot period. I am trying to tone down my bashing for Ginny, Dumbles, and Molly, I dont like them but I wont bash them every time, but Harry will Never ever end up paired with my stories, unless it leads to something else. Sorry shippers I hated cannon pairings.
I dont own Harry Potter

Daphne Greengrass huffed in annoyance, she was throwing the annual ball that her family had hosted for generations. Even though it would probably end with her, seeing as her sister married a Malfoy, meaning that her father had cast her out of the family. He wouldnt stand for scum like Draco Malfoy into his family. Then she never married either, the Greengrass line was ending with her. Malfoy had come to her multiple times trying to reinstate his son Scorpius into the greengrass line so it didnt die out but she refused every time.
Truth be told, even if she was a hundred years old now, she was having a marvelous time. Her annoyance came from Ginerva Potter and her spawn. The girl and her children, with the exception of Albus Severus, just thinking of those names makes her puke, they were all loud and lacked manners. Ginny was stumbling around drunk off her ass, while her children flirted with everything that moved. James Sirius was a massive playboy who never showed any sign of growing up, Albus Severus was rendered sterile for some reason in Hogwarts. Weirdly enough, Delphi Riddle was arrested not long after that, and Lilly Luna was a massive whore. She must've heard the stories her mother told her friends of banging anyone who offered and sterilized herself so she could go out shagging without a problem.
Daphne sighed as she looked over at the boy who defeated Voldemort. Her heart skipped a beat, only one person knew that in her school days, despite being known as Slytherins ice queen she had had a massive crush on Gryffindor's golden boy. True, like any girl her age she wanted to be Mrs. Potter as a kid. However when Harry returned to the wizarding world in rags, shorter than he should be and bone thin, most girls backed away and left that childhood dream behind. Not her though, she saw signs of neglect and a kind gentle heart. However her shy nature kept her away from Harry, every year in school he would have something happen to him, and each time she heard the rumors she fell deeper in love with him. Then he was abandoned by almost everyone in his fourth year and Voldemort returned. After that whole mess he never returned to school again and then when she next saw him, he was married to Ginerva Weasley.
Daphne smiled slightly as she looked into the one boy she loved her whole life, her heart clenched though in regret. His eyes were dull and didn't hold the hope he had in school. She saw him smile and knew it was forced,she couldnt really blame him. None of his kids would ever have kids, meaning the Potter family would well and tuly end with him despite his efforts to not let that happen, even though he never truly took up his family ring.
Lost in thought again she wondered why that was. Sure he got into trouble with this Goblins, but they forgave him real quick when he stood up for them when the Wizards were rampaging through diagon alley against the Goblins trying to instigate another freaking war, but he never ever took up the head of house Potter. When he and his wife had three kids, everyone wanted to marry their daughters and sons into the Potter Family but Harry never took up his head of house status, so any marriage requests or betrothal contracts never went through. People still went after James, but he always made sure to protect against pregnancy when be filled around with someone, and he used muggle methods to so most witches didnt know how to get pregnant from that. Now, the Potter line was dying again...Daphne could not understand what went wrong for a long while, until she visited the Potter family on buisness seeing as her family were co-owners of the Nimbus company and she needed his signature.
flashback
with a crack a 35 year old Daphne Greengrass apparated and gagged, the Burrow is where they lived and she saw all three children Dengoming the gardens. Walking up she knocked on the door, Ginny opened up and Daphne had to gag, if she hadn't seen Molly Weasleys funeral herself she would swear that she was looking at her now. After childbirth and quidditch she really let herself go. "What do you want Greengrass?" She narrowed her eyes.
"I'm just here for Lord Potter to sign this document." She showed the document to his wife.
Ginny just glared at her, "please. There is no Lord Potter, get lost."
"Hey Dad! Wanna play quiditch?" The eldest boy shouted as Harry came out of the shack.
Harry smiled, "sorry kiddo, gotta go to work." And be was gone in a crack.
Daphne peeked in the shack and saw a bunch of muggle stuff. my god...they've become the next generation of Molly and Arthur.
end flashback
After that, it became very clear what happened. After marriage, Harry was brow beaten to become the next Arthur Weasley. A kind hearted man who worked hard for his family to get by and ended up ignoring his family because of how often be worked. She sighed and shook her head, if only I had the chance to fix my shyness for you in school Harry. Maybe you wouldnt be a shell of a man who only does anything if his wife tells him to. If only you had known about the marriage contract we had.
A pain fluttered through her heart and she Collapsed, everyone dashed over and the healers present scanned her and shook there head. "Its just her time...guess this is the last Greengrass ball ever. Harry, you may want to resurrect the Potter family ball now, your the last family alive left to do so."
Harry looked confused, "where would my family have thrown balls? We never owned a manor. It's not like the Potter family was an ancient and Noble house. My parents lived in a cottage in godric's hollow."
Daphne drifted off into thought when the murmurs started up, thinking about the marriage contract that was between her and Harry. It was to be inacted when Harry became Lord Potter. She found out about it after her father passed and took up the mantle as head of house Greengrass, but much to her mothers dismay at her deathbed she had cried, asking why her eldest wasnt married yet, and why he never took up his families legacy. A few years later she learned that it was Harry she was talking about. Unfortunately, without a Lord Potter the contract just sat, gathering dust because there never was another Lord Potter after Harry's father.
Daphne's breath grew shallower and shallower as her life faded, she turned her head and met that beautiful emerald green gaze one last time and faded away.
Harry was confused, he had seen a ton of regret and pain in her eyes, but there was a third emotion in her eyes which he had never seen before, at least not directed at him. It was an emotion he saw every time his kids looked at there mother, every time he watched Neville Longbottom smile and look his wife Hannah. An emotion that took him the better part of 75 years to understand, it was love. That emotion was love. Nobody ever looked at him like that, his kids hated him. James and Lily grew to despise him after a vacation they took with there mother one year. He alienated Albus when he did his time travel stunt with Malfoys kid. After that, Albus Severus Potter hated his father on principle. He had fallen in love with Delphi Riddle, daughter of Voldemort and Bellatrix Lestrange, and when he threw her in prison, Albus never spoken to him directly face to face ever again. Ginny never looked at him like that either, It took him 85 years to figure out what emotion he had mistaken for love in his teenage years. Lust, Ginny never wanted him, she wanted his fame, and when she got it all she wanted was his body. At least until Lily was born, after that...well it had been over 50 years since he got laid. At 100 years old...it didnt really matter anymore but, it was sad to think about. Hermione, may she rest in peace, tried to help once but he refused to cheat on Ginny, he thought he was gonna be with his wife that night actually...but she had gone out drinking with Lily and he, once again, was left alone in a house nobody wanted him at.
Harry sighed and apparated home. Ginny and Lily said they'd spend the night at Ron's house. James was already gone having seduced Narcissa Malfoy, who was in the same spot he was in when Lucius was alive. Albus was going to visit Delphi and wouldnt be back till late so he didnt bother looking around. If he had he wouldve seen Draco Malfoy shake his head, "I dont know Tori...i know he saved your life by lending you his magic during childbirth, but its Potter..."
Astoria Malfoy was sad, her sister just passed away and she too had seen the look she gave to Harry, "I know Draco...but even after all these years she looked at Harry with so much love in her eyes...plus, he needs help. You saw him tonight, how long do you think it's been since Potters been laid?"
Draco snorted, "not like it matters at our ages now, but I'd say he hasn't been laid since his daughter. I worked in the auror department with him. Never once after that girl came into the world did he have that, 'my wife let me have some last night' face.
Astoria nodded, "then invite him to dinner some time. Perhaps we can also figure out why he never took Up his Lord Potter title, or why even though he was named as heir Black, he never took the duty up."
Draco laughed, "if my teenage self saw me he would be disgusted with me."
Astoria glared at her husband, "yes your immature teenage self that took up the dark mark and only survived to this day due to Potter." Draco just flinched. He could tell his wife was barely clinging onto the attitude. Even with occlumency she couldnt block out the sorrow of losing her sister forever.

Daphne opened her eyes again and flinched at the eyes that looked at her with anger, they were Harry's.
"Hello Daphne. I dont suppose you remember me do you?" The redhead asked.
Daphne shook her head and her eyes widened when she saw her original blonde, not the grey she had for years. Looking down to her hands and she found the perfectly manicured hands she used when she was still in school. "What?"
Lily narrowed her eyes, "I, am Lily Potter. Harry's mother, I have watched my Babies whole life. I've watched as his wife tricked him into marrying her, I watched him commit suicide to save the world, but come back by some fluke, I've watched my grandbabies be corrupted by that bint, except Albus. But I even watched him attempt to kill his own father by attempting to erase his fathers defeat of Voldemort. I've watched as my Baby went through life half a man. I watched as his wife slept around so much that she never put out for my son after his daughter was born. I will not let this be my sons life. Dumbledore and the Weasleys can go turn themselves. Tell me Daphne, if I gave you the chance, would you help my son escape what has happened to him?"
Daphne gaped at the mother of the boy she had loved since before Hogwarts, "I'm amazed you aren't asking Hermione Weasley. She was closer than I was."
Lily scoffed, "that girl. No, I dont approve of her either. Someone who had so low a self esteem that she never thought a boy could like her, even though she dated Vikor Krum. Plus her husband bullied her so bad as first years that she would've died in the attack, and she still married him. I respect that girl, she is a lot like me, but she thinks she knows best about everything and cannot even comprehend to look up from multiple sources, that girl never learned the lesson I learned early on, have fun every now and then, and when I find something I don't like about the fucking wizarding world, look up WHY something is the way it is, and the consequences if its not in place. Take her fifth year when she tried to free house elves, she didnt even look up what happens if they're freed. That girl killed fifteen house elves in her arrogance. No, only you loved Harry unconditionally, before and after you met the real Harry Potter."
Daphne blushed, "yes...I would've loved to be with him."
Lily smiled widely, "very well. I am going to give you memories of Harry's life. You, are going to get Harry to be better than he was, dont trust Dumbledore, or the Weasleys. Oh, ask your mother about how to remove what's in Harry's scar, she would know being an unspeakable."
Daphne nodded, "please make Harry's life better Daphne, he deserves better than a fangirl who wants him just for his fame. If Katherine asks what's going on, tell her Lilly is fulfilling her promise."

Daphne Greengrass was following her parents through kings cross station, she was beginning her first year at Hogwarts and she was excited. Nearing the barrier a massive headache occurred and she collapsed as she saw events happening that she shouldnt know yet.
Katherine Greengrass fell to her knees, "Daphne, are you ok?!"

Harry Potter was lost. Of course Hagrid didnt tell him how to find platform 9 and 3/4...when he saw a family pass by him but the girl collapsed Harry leapt up, "are you ok?!"
0000000000
"Ron! What are you doing! Were late, we have to meet Potter at the station. If we can get him to be with our family it will be a good thing!"
"I can't find Scabbars mum!"
"Its in the living room down here! You left it here last night." Fred and George were cringing at the volume of there mothers voice, Bill and Charlie were right in ditching out as soon as they could. There mother was overbearing.
000000000000000
Daphne looked up into a pair of beautiful Emerald green eyes, "H-Harry Potter."
The other Greengrass family gaped, "hello Harry! Your mother and I were friends in school!" Katherine said.
Harry's eyes widened, "you knew my mum?! What was she like?"
Katherine's smile faded, "dont you know..."
Daphne spoke up, "mum...Lily said she's fulfilling her promise." Katherine visibly shook and smiled.
"Come Harry, to get on the platform just run at the wall between platform 9 and 10." Harry watched as each of the Family disappeared through the wall, except the girls dad.
Just as he was about to run a plump redheaded woman was shouting about muggles, "Excuse me Harry. Duty calls, good thing I'm an Auror." Harry ran and as he phased through the barrier he heard the man laying into the woman.
The rest of his family waited, "h...he wont be here for a minute. A redheaded woman with tons of kids was shouting about muggles out there."
Katherine frowned, "Well...oh well. Sounds like Molly Weasley. Woman cant keep her mouth shut, come along children." She helped Daphne onto the train and frowned at Harry's clothes and beat up suitcase. She could also see a very dark magic in his scar and the wand he was using wasn't perfect."Harry...you can afford new things, the Potters are a very wealthy family just like we Greengrasses.
Harry tilted his head, "we are? I didnt know. My vault seemed to be quite empty."
Katherine frowned, "what was in your vault Harry?" And her anger spiked when he pulled out a bag that could only hold enough money for school supplies. He didnt even have money for the train trolley. "T-thats it?!"
Harry nodded his head, "yes..."
Katherine frowned, "never give your key away again Harry. Unless it's to your future wife, Daniel and I will look into this. Here is some money for the trolley, we will go shopping around Christmas, that way we have clothes that fit you." as the train began pulling away Harry beamed at the woman and waved.
Daphne smiled and took Harry's hand, "c'mon Harry. Let's go find a compartment."
Harry smiled at his new and first human friend, "okay Daphne, did you know my parents too?"
Daphne nodded, "apparently we played together for the first year of our life, I'm happy we reunited I'll tell you all about your family later, I promise.
Let me know what you think
Also, idk what house to put Harry in, it does have to be with Daphne though so I'm asking all of you which house I should put them in
