Where are they now?
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters in this story!
You are invited to the first D.A. reunion. It's on June 23rd at Potter Manor from 7pm until 1 am. Please RSVP if you're able to attend.
Hannah Longbottom nee Abott stood in her newly renovated bar, The Leaky cauldron as she read the letter.
"Honey, we got invited to go to a D.A. reunion" she yelled towards the back where her husband was trying out something. Neville walked into the main section of the bar.
"Seriously?" he asked.
"Yep" Hannah waved the invite in his face.
"Cool I'll floo call Harry and RSVP"
Katie Bell arrived at home from a grueling day at work. She works as a chaser for the belly castle bats. Training was ridiculously hard.
She saw a tawny owl waiting for her on her desk. She frowned and then went to go look at the letter. "A reunion?" she muttered to herself. The only people she really spoke to from the DA still were Alicia and Ginny and they only spoke to each other on the Quidditch pitch when they played against each other. It wouldn't hurt her to see her old friends. So she pulled out a piece of parchment and sent her reply.
Susan Boot received her invitation while on her honey moon with her new husband Terry Boot.
"The DA is having a reunion" she said. She was sitting down at the kitchen table when Terry came down wearing nothing but a towel around his waist.
"That's cool" Terry said and he walked right up to his bride and began to kiss her down her neck.
"We should go" Susan said losing focus.
"We" kiss "Are" kiss "On our" kiss "Honeymoon" longer kiss.
"I know it's dated for the week after we come back" Susan said.
"Oh that's okay then. After all if it weren't for the DA we wouldn't have met like we did."
Cho got her letter while she was at work in at the ministry at the department of magical transportation. She read the letter with excitement. A party at the reclusive Potter house? She had to go.
"Hey what's up?"
Cho looked up at her best friend Marietta. "Hey." She hastily shoved the letter away.
"You ready for lunch?" Marietta asked giving Cho a stern look.
"Yeah, of course."
What if Marietta didn't get an invite? Cho couldn't go without her best friend. She also highly doubted Marietta would get an invite after she betrayed them all. If Cho looked at Marietta and squinted real hard she could still see faint outline of the word sneak written across her face.
Michael Corner ordered another shot of firewhiskey. He sat at the bar thinking about the invitation he got and whether or not he should go. His ex-s would be there. Ginny who was now married to Potter. Cho who confessed to him when they broke up that she'd actually prefer a girlfriend. And then there's Alicia Spinnet who he asked out last year and they dated for two months before they called it quits. Should he really go? He downed his shot and then ordered another one.
Dennis Creevey couldn't wait for his wife to get home. Then again he didn't like waiting for anything. He proposed to his girlfriend during their last year at school. They got their own place as soon as school ended and married only months after.
The front door opened.
"Dennis, are you home?" his wife asked. She walked into the living room to see him there holding a fancy piece of parchment.
"The Potters are throwing a DA reunion. We'll get to see our old friends again and I think it'll be the perfect time to spread the news."
"I wasn't a part of Dumbledore's Army" his wife said pouting.
"But Demelza you were on the Quidditch team. Besides I was part of the DA and I'm sure spouses are allowed."
Demelza smiled. It would be nice to see her first Quidditch team again.
"Okay let's RSVP, it should be fun" she said.
Justin Flinch-Fletchley read his letter twice. He supposed it would be good to hear from his old friends. He often got updates on the Weasleys by his boss Arthur Weasley. But it would be good to see some of his old Hufflepuff friends as well like Hannah and Ernie.
Seamus Finnegan sat with his best friend Dean Thomas at a Quidditch match. It was the Cannons verses the Falcons. The Cannons were getting slaughtered. It was becoming almost unbearable to watch.
"So did you get an invite to Potter's party?" Seamus asked.
Dean nodded and gave a non-committal grunt.
"You aren't still pissed he stole your girl are you? That was a long time ago" Seamus said.
"First of all nobody stole anything. Second she wasn't my girlfriend we were on a break. Thirdly I've been gotten over it. Harry and I are cool. We even talk sometimes at work" Dean said getting all huffed up.
"Sure, you've stopped giving him the death glare ages ago" Seamus said sarcastically. "Are you going or not?"
Dean shrugged. "Sure why not?"
Anthony Goldstein came home early from work. He worked in the obliverator's office in the ministry. He wife Pamda was an unspeakable. She had the day off.
"Hey I received in invite to the Potters for some sort of reunion" he said as he gave his wife a kiss on the cheek. She was currently stitching together a scarf or something. He really wasn't all that good with female clothes.
"A reunion? Well it sounds interesting. Do you want to go?" she asked.
"Only if we have the day off" he said.
Pamda thought about it for a second. She was working on a big unmentionable project at the ministry.
"Okay let's check our schedules and see if we could go."
During her lunch break Angelina apparated over to WWW. Business was still doing well. The place was as jam packed as ever.
"Hey Verity, is George in?" Angelina said standing on her tip-toes and looking at a very harassed clerk.
"He's at the store in Dublin" Verity said. "If you're going to see him right now tell him he needs to hire more employees at this location."
"Will do" Angelina said and she left the place.
George had not only opened up a shop in Hogsmeade but he went on to open three more shops and wizard only neighborhoods that were hidden from muggles.
When she got to the Dublin WWW she was not surprised to see George in the back stocking room.
"Hey Georgie" she said as she stepped behind the black veil.
"Hey Angie, what are you doing here?" George asked giving her a big hug.
"I just got an invite to the Potters for a reunion and I was wondering if you needed a date, there" Angelina said.
"Are you asking me out?" George asked a smile lighting up his face.
"Are you saying yes?" she countered.
"Yes" he said.
"Yes" she repeated.
George grabbed her arm and pulled her into him as he kissed her.
"I've been waiting a long time to do that" he whispered against her lips.
"Me too" she whispered back. She ran her hands through his hair as she pulled him closer and started kissing him again.
Lee Jordan just finished doing his radio show on the WWN. He had three shows, the Quidditch commentary for certain teams, he dj'd a rock station, and late night he hosted Dear Lee a relationship advice show. The last one is pretty ironic since he's still single.
He got home and found mail on the table. There was a large box of latest WWW projects. There were also a little bit of fan mail. He always liked it when he got that. He loved to know there were people out there listening to him. He saw a fancy looking envelope and frowned. That one was unexpected. He opened it up and read the invitation. A party at the Potter's hell yeah he was in.
"There it is, a blimbering humdinger" Luna said pointing a pale blue thing floating in the sky.
"Merlin's beard I've think you've actually found it" Rolf Scamander said.
It was so near the color of the sky that most people would over look it. Luna and Rolf pulled out their cameras and began to take pictures.
"This is so nice. I can't wait until I show my daddy the pictures" Luna said enthusiastically later as they were headed back towards their cabin. They were currently on an expedition in Wales.
"Our trip isn't over yet but I feel so close to catching a Crumbled Horned Snorsnack" Rolf said.
"Yes, I know there is one nearby" Luna said.
They entered the little cabin they were staying in.
"Oh look we got mail, I wonder if it is from daddy." Luna opened the envelope. "Oh my friend invited me to a party. Oh the DA is getting back together."
"What's the DA?" Rolf asked.
"It's a sort of rebel group we started in school."
Rolf raised his eyebrow trying to imagine Luna as a some sort of badass rebel girl. "Are you going to go to this party?"
"Of course I should go. Harry and Ginny are one of my first friends. And I really liked the DA. It was really fun. Although I do wonder though. I've only been to one party before and that was a Christmas party with Harry and he seemed awfully stiff the whole time. I wonder if he'll be any better this time. You should come with me."
"Sure, it's a date" Rolf said. He blushed automatically when the words came out of his mouth. He liked Luna for a while but he never had the nerve to ask her out before.
"Sure, a date" Luna said with a smile and a very faint blush.
Ernie McMillion was very happy when he got Potter's invitation. He had plans on becoming a minister of magic one day and that would never happen if he was never given opportunities. The Potters were in all of the major circles. Ernie thought it would be nice to see his old friends again.
"That's the fourth time today Spinnet" Bonnie Watson yelled.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" Alicia yelled as she landed on the mud soaked ground. It had been raining during the morning and the weather really hadn't gotten any better.
"What's with you today?" Bonnie asked landing next to Alicia.
She was recently dumped, as in less than 12 hours ago, and she was quite certain that not only was she hungover but she was still a bit drunk from the night before.
"I've been dumped" Alicia complained.
Bonnie sighed.
"You're probably not in a good mood right now. And I know what you're going through. We've all been there. But if you don't pull it together and pull it together now I'm going to bench you for the rest of the season."
Alicia sobered up immediately. Her team had yet to win in major matches since she started working for them but she was sure they weren't going to go home empty handed next season.
Alicia didn't take anymore bludgers to the head although she still feet beat. She went home with the plan of sleeping and not waking again for at least a week.
There was mail waiting for her. A letter from her parents. No doubt one from her mom trying to get her meet some new hot single guy. The other was an invitation. She debated whether or not she should go, then she thought, what the hell? She might as well. She had nothing else to do.
"Hey" Hermione said as she walked into the drawing room of the Potter's house.
"Hey Hermione how is it going?" Ginny asked. She was sitting on a couch with a plush Harry Potter pillow in her arms.
Hermione raised an eyebrow.
"Don't ask questions. It belongs to Teddy" Ginny said.
"Sure it does. I sent out all of the invitations like you wanted to. Some people have already contacted back and said they were coming" Hermione said. She sat down on the couch.
"Thank you Hermione. I would've gone to the post office myself but it's my day off and I need my rest" Ginny said.
"I totally understand" Hermione said. She worked so many hours herself.
A tray full of sandwiches, soup and Sheppard's pie floated into the room followed by a tray with tea.
"Whoa, not only does Harry cook but he delivers as well" Hermione said.
"I know he's awesome" Ginny said.
"He needs to tell Ron about some of these things" Hermione said.
Harry smiled as he entered the room. He was sure there were a few pages in 12 Fail Safe Ways about catering to a woman.
"Hey Hermione" he said. He walked over to Ginny and kissed her. "I hope all the invitations got sent out. I have to head to the office for a few hours."
"Be safe" Ginny said.
"I always am" he said.
-hopefully I fixed all of the spelling mistakes 6/5
