Lily sat at the table drumming her finger waiting. "Ugh" she said impatiently.
"What are you waiting on sweetheart?" her dad came in and asked her.
"My letter from Hogwarts. Bill told me he got his yesterday" she responded.
Harry felt a pull at his heart he new that Lily was ready to go back. But, it was odd
because she used to always love summer break. He wished the kids didn't have to go.
They were what kept him strong since the incident. "Is that what I'm calling now?" Harry
thought, damn that's pitiful. Harry was reminded of his wedding. Everyone they loved
was there. It was the best day of his life. Harry couldn't tell you exactly who was there.
Because the whole day his only focus had been on his bride. Ginny had been so beautiful
she was always beautiful but that day there was something special in the air. After that
day it seemed like a dream world to Harry. Three months after they were married Ginny
became pregnant with their first James Ronald Potter and a year after that Lily Ginevra
Potter was born. After Lily was born it was if something snapped in Ginny she seemed to
become more and more like Mrs. Weasley every day. Harry used to tease her about it.
Then one day on James twelfth birthday Ginny fainted. Harry rushed her to St. Mungo's,
where they had discovered she had terminal cancer. Harry had searched and searched for
weeks after trying to find a cure but he couldn't. Ginny died four moths later. Her last
words to Harry were. "I love you I always have and I want you to not worry about me.
Because there is always hope. Hope it is what has guided me. It is what has gotten me
through the days and especially the nights. The hope that this might not be the last time I
look upon your face. Take care of our kids don't let this tear you three apart. Harry I love
you I always will." she told him. That night he held her till she passed." No Harry would
never forget those words it had been three years since she had died. After Ginny had died
Hermione came and took care of Harry and the kids for a few weeks while Sirius moved
in. Harry had asked his godfather to move in to help him with everything. Harry was so
grateful to all his friends and family.
"Oh" yelled Lily. Pulling her father out of his thoughts. A tawny owl was coming up
carrying four letters. Harry chuckled thinking the two extra letters were about James.
"James Potter" yelled Harry. "Good morning" yawned Sirius coming down the stairs.
"Wuzzzgoinon?" Asked James tripping on the stairs "Is there and emergency, why would
any one be up at this god forsaken hour?" "It's Ten o'clock in the morning" retorted Lily
"dung brain." Sirius smiled proudly at James "Even you grandfather and I never got in
that much trouble. I'm so proud and I'm sure he would be too. Why I never even got two
letters at the same time about your dad when he was in school." James still disoriented
smiled. "Dumbledore sent you letters when I did bad stuff?" Harry asked. "Of course do
you think he wouldn't have?" Sirius asked "one time I got a letter about you father …"
"Okay" yelled Harry handing the letter to James who started opening it and reading it.
"Um … Dad I think it's great you being offered a job and everything but next time wait
until I wake up to tell me." James said yawning loudly. "What?' questioned Harry
snatching the letter? He started reading. "Uncle Sirius there's one here for you two" said
Lily nervously. Sirius took the letter and started reading as well. When both had finessed
Harry announced. "It seems I have been offered a position as Defense Against the Dark
Arts teacher." Harry turned and looked at his godfather with a well what does yours say
expression. "I have been asked to take over Madame Hooch's job it seems she is retiring.
I have also been asked to become the new Gryffindor Head of House." "So I guess this
means we'll all be going to Hogwarts this year" said James not sure whether he was okay
with it or not. "I'm in" said Sirius "it would be crazy to refuse if it means I get to see the
two of you." Harry wasn't sure if he should take the job. "What about you Daddy?"
asked Lily with that look. The same one her mother had. The look that could have gotten
them the world if they asked. "I guess I will if you two don't mind" said Harry. Truth be
told he was very pleased to get to go it would mea he would get to see the kids a lot more
often. So it seemed it worked out for everyone. Harry and Sirius penned their answers
back right then. "Does this mean we can go to Diagon Alley today?" asked Lily excitedly
"I suppose so since you guys got your supplies list we should go" said Harry. "Yay"
yelled Lily "can Aunt Hermione, Uncle Remus , Uncle Ron and Bill come too?" "I'm
sure Aunt Hermione, Uncle Remus and Bill will be able to come. But, don't be too upset
if Uncle Ron can't come." "Alright" said Lily "so we'll leave in an hour." "Ugh" said
James "What in the hell do you need an hour for?" "Well" she said sounding very much
like Hemoine "I need to get a shower. Pick out an outfit, get dressed, and dry my hair.
Style my hair, and put on make-up. By the way don't you need a shower too?" James
took his shirt and smelled it "No, thanks I had a shower two days ago I'm god thanks."
"Yew" she yelled before leaving. "Since when does she wear make-up?" asked Sirius
"Last I remember she hated stuff like that and wouldn't have cared what she was
wearing." "Well" said James with a mouth full of eggs "ever since she and Dean Thomas
have been going out she's been all into that girly stuff." "What" yelled Sirius "he's your
father's age?" "No" said James with another mouth full "Dean Thomas Jr." Harry didn't
say anything yet. The dragon like feeling he had gotten in sixth year had come back at the
words 'going out'. "Isn't she too young to be dating?" Harry thought to himself. No,"said
a voice in the back of his head "she is entirely too young to be dating." To Harry it was
decided she was too young to date. Whack! Harry had just whacked the back of his son's
head (not too hard though) "Why in the hell didn't you tell us she was dating someone?
Especially Dean Thomas I know his father." said Harry thinking about when Dean and
Ginny had been dating. "If Dean is anything like his father, I'll kill him." Harry said.
"Not if I do first" interjected Sirius. "Ow!" bellowed James "I told him if he hurt her or
did anything special with her I would hex "his" off. I figured that was enough. Oh shit!
Did I just tell you that Lily dating Dean?" Harry nodded in reply. "Damn it" James said
"she's going to kill me." "We'll take care of this later" Harry said "I need to go to
Hermione's and see if they would like to come. I'll be back in a little while." Harry
turned to leave "Oh, and James if you're not going to take a shower at least put on a new
shirt." Harry left.

Hermione was bustling around the kitchen. "Remus have you seen where I put my wand?
I'm trying to make breakfast" she yelled. Pop Harry had just apparated. "Is this it right
here?" Harry asked handing it to her. "Oh, thanks Remus." She said still busy trying to
make breakfast. Then she turned as she herd Harry chuckle. "Harry" she said happily
"hey what are you doing here?" "Well" he started "The kids, Sirius and I are going to
Daigon Alley today to get school supplies and we were wondering would you guys like
to join us? Ron might come but you never know with his job." Harry wondered whether
he should tell her or not about his new job. But, he figured he mine as well get it over
now. "I also have some big news to tell you." He said as casually as possible. "I have a
job now. I'll be at Hogwarts teaching Defense Against the Dark Arts. Sirius is going too
he's taking over Madame Hooch's job and he's going to be Head of House for Gryffindor
as well." "Wow" said Hermione "that's great Harry you will come see us though won't
you?" "Yes of course" said Harry thinking that went easily. "So, are you guys coming?"
he asked. "Yes how about we meet at the Leaky Cauldron in an hour?" she replied.
"Great that's where I planned on Ron meeting us. See you there bye." He said kissing the
top of her head. He and Ron loved teasing her about being taller than her. And with a
pop he was gone. Hermione went about her usual duties. But, little did she know her
son Bill had been listening to the whole conversation they had had. "We're going to see
Lily today" he thought "I have to tell Lily today. Or else I'll never be able too."
