Chapter 1: Back to Hogwarts
Ginevra "Ginny" Molly Weasley walked onto Platform 9 ¾ for her 7th and final year. She had long, straight, tomato-red hair that fell halfway down her back. Her eyes were like peanut butter—light brown and filled with swirls that you could get lost in. She was at the height of 5'5". She wore muggle skinny jeans (which Hermione had introduced her to) of a light blue with rips in them, and a black-shirt. She also had on her favorite silver flats and silver eye-liner. She wore minimum make-up (she didn't need much of it), just the basics.
Ginny didn't know what she wanted to do after Hogwarts, but she'd already gotten offers to play Quidditch for the Appleby Arrows, Chudley Cannons, Puddlemere United, and the Holyhead Harpies. The Daily Prophet had also offered her a job as a reporter.
The redhead pulled her trunk onto the train and looked for a compartment. She spotted her best friend, Hermione Jean Granger, sitting in one. Ginny knocked on the door and took sight of the gleaming 'Head Girl' badge on Hermione's breast. Hermione had skipped her 7th year when looking for Horcruxes, and chose to redo it as an 8th year. Ginny knew that her friend had already gotten job offers from the Auror Office, the Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures, the Department of Mysteries, the Department of Law Enforcement, and an offer to become an Unspeakable.
Hermione waved at Ginny. The girl of 5'6" with honey curls, a perfect smile, toffee eyes, and a fantastic body smiled and waved. Hermione wore dark blue skinny jeans, a scarlet t-shirt, her signature gold high-tops, and had on her signature gold eye-liner. Ginny sat down. "How was your summer, 'Mione?"
"Good. I stayed with Harry, Sirius, and Remus at Grimmauld Place." Hermione then closed the blinds on the door and held up her left hand. On Hermione's ring finger was a beautiful engagement ring. It had a 1.2 karat diamond in the center that was surrounded by smaller diamonds, making a full circle. On the band were more diamonds. Ginny squealed. There were 5 people who knew about Remus and Hermione's relationship: Remus Lupin, Hermione, Ginny, Sirius Orion Black, and Harry James Potter. "And guess what? He's teaching this year. Defense Against the Dark Arts. Since the curse was stopped when Tom Riddle died, he will be teaching permanently!" It made sense. Remus was poor, being a werewolf. Unlike in the muggle world, to be a wizard Professor was one of the most well-paying jobs out there. Remus asked for his 1st pay early so that he could afford a ring for his new fiancée.
"Will you live with him in the castle?" Hermione nodded. "That's cool. What about the fact that you are dating your Professor?"
"We already cleared that up with Minerva."
"Nice. So how's it like? To date someone almost 20 years your senior?"
"Everyone always tells me that I'm wiser than my years, so it makes sense that I would date someone with the same maturity as myself. Minerva said that, actually. She was quite pleased with my choice. Anyways, it's great. Teenage boys are ruled by hormones and only want you for your body. An older man understands that your mind is important, but they still have a wild side. You know, Gin, maybe you should date someone older. Not 37, like Remus, but older."
"I just haven't found anyone. Good for you, 'Mione." She thought for a moment, "Aren't you worried what people think? I mean, a student engaged to a Professor. Especially 2 war heroes such as yourselves. It will be all over the tabloids. Aren't you worried that people will talk behind your back?"
"Gin, I know that people will talk behind my back. I don't care. You can't help who you fall in love with, you just fall in love. I don't care that he's my Professor. Age is just a number. I don't care about a silly little number. I just care about him."
"Knock, knock," said a sweet voice from the doorway. They looked up to the smiling face of Lavender Alyssa Brown. After the war, Lavender became humbled and sweet. Ginny and Hermione considered her one of their better friends.
"Come on in, Lavender," Hermione said. The beautiful blond sat by Ginny. Lavender had long hair and amazing hazel eyes. She stood at 5'4". She had on a shirt and t-shirt.
"Can we come in, too?" asked a joking voice from the door, "Or is this compartment reserved for Gryffindors?" Pansy Patricia Parkinson stepped forward. It turned out that she and a few other Slytherins did not agree with Voldemort, so they helped the Order. She'd grown out of her pug-like appearance, and was actually quite beautiful. She had long, black hair, and pretty eyes. She stood at 5'4". She wore flare jeans and a tight shirt.
"There aren't any ungletablles in your compartment," Luna Lauren Lovegood stood next to Pansy. That was her way of asking to come into the compartment. After the war, she wasn't as spacey. It was Luna, so she still was spacey, just not as much. Hermione could tolerate her much more easily. Her wavy, bleach-blond hair fell to her bum, and her blue eyes were huge. Luna was 5'2". She wore a cute sundress.
Ginny smiled, "Nah, just for Gryffindors."
"Too bad," Pansy said, pulling Luna in.
"So what's new—Hermione! What is that?" Lavender asked, her eyes bugging at Hermione's ring finger.
"Who is it?" Pansy asked.
"You all have to promise not to tell anyone," Hermione warned. They all nodded. "It's… it's…"
"Professor Lupin!" Ginny said. The girls squealed.
"Will you all be my bridesmaids?" Hermione asked.
"YES!" the others said, simultaneously. Ginny pulled out a camera and charmed it to take pictures of them all.
"Would you girls mind if we crashed in here?" asked a voice from the doorway. They looked up. Remus Lupin. His sandy blond hair was done 1940's style and his eyes were blue. He was about 6'2" and was extremely muscular (werewolf strength).
3 of the girls giggled. One of the two who hadn't giggled said, "Of course. Oh, and they know. They are my bridesmaids." The other who hadn't giggled was focused on who was behind the Lycan.
"Sirius! What are you doing here?" Ginny asked. Sirius had long, black hair; amazing, grey eyes; and a gorgeous smile. When Hermione killed Bellatrix, he came out of the veil, as Bella was the one who exiled him there. Time was different in the veil. It was reversed and multiplied by 2. So he was technically was about 29/30-ish. He looked 20.
"I'm the new Transfiguration Professor," he said, beaming. The other girls smiled at the handsome man.
"That's fantastic!" Ginny said, offering him the seat next to hers.
"So where's The-Boy-Who-Just-Won't-Die?" Pansy asked.
"He and Ron are joining the Auror program, so they decided not to return, this year," Sirius said. His proud face quickly turned into one of disgust as he yelled, "Moony! No snogging students!"
Hermione and Remus's faces were bright red. While the group bantered, they forgot about the couple, who had started to snog. "Sorry. Can't help it. Full moon soon, and Moony recognizes out mate."
"You are his mate?" Lavender gushed. It was truly sweet.
"Yeah," Hermione said, sheepishly.
"Well if you can refrain from snogging the girl that I see as a daughter, it would be greatly appreciated," Sirius said. Hermione smiled and Remus blushed.
"Hermione Granger as Head Girl? Who would've guessed?" asked a mocking voice from behind the group.
"You made Head Boy?" she asked, turning around.
"Don't act so surprised, Granger," Blaise Celio Zambini joked. Blaise was a tall Italian at about 6'0", with high cheekbones and long, slanting eyes. Lavender blushed when she saw him. The other girls made mental note to ask her about it.
"I'm sorry, I…"
"'Mione, I was just kidding. Lighten up a bit," he said, throwing an arm around the girl. Ginny, Pansy, Luna, Lavender, and Sirius noticed Remus tense up and his eyes turned amber. Sirius put a calming hand on his friend's shoulder, reassuring him that the Slytherin meant no harm. The girls thought it was adorable.
"Oh, sure. Be all over Blaise and forget about me," came a familiar voice. The boy had platinum hair and steel-colored eyes. He wasn't too tall at 5'11".
"Hey, Drake," the girls chimed. Draco Lucius Malfoy's eyes lingered over the small blond on the end for a moment.
"Finally, the 7th and 8th year dormitories have been revised. Check your common room for dorm assignments. Enjoy your feast," Minerva said, wrapping up the speech.
Head Dorm: 7th floor, 1st corridor, painting of the Founders. Occupants: Blaise Z. (S,8) and Hermione G. (G,8).
Riot Room: 2nd floor, 5th corridor, painting of war. Occupants: Neville L. (G,8), Anthony G. (R,8), Terrence B. (H, 8), and Gregory G. (S, 8).
Equestrian House: 3rd floor, 2nd corridor, statue of horse. Occupants: Hannah A. (H, 8), Tracey D. (S, 8)…
Ginny's eyes scanned the page until she saw her name.
Unity Place: 7th floor, 1st corridor, painting of the 1st members of each house. Occupants: Luna L. (R, 7), Pansy P. (S, 8), Lavender B. (G, 8), and Ginevra W. (G, 7).
She noticed another group on their floor and corridor…
Just House: 7th floor, 1st corridor, statue of scales. Occupants: Draco M. (S, 8), Dean T (G, 8), Michael C. (R, 8), and 4th member pending.
"What does that mean?"
"Not sure," Hermione said.
"Ginny Weasley," Ginny said, finding the portrait of the 1st students of Hogwarts.
A Gryffindor girl stepped forward, "The password is 'Simul sumus', Miss Weasley."
"Thank you," she said. Just as she was about to step through the threshold, she stopped, "Call me 'Ginny'." There was no common room—it was like an enlarged dorm. There were 5 beds along the walls, a fireplace, some chairs, 2 sofas, and some tables. She spotted her own trunk and she walked over to open it when she felt an electric rush.
