Lily Luna Potter made her way through the room full of people. Tonight, she and the family were at the Burrow, celebrating her engagement with Teddy Lupin. They have been engaged for a five months, but since there was a breakout of death eaters, they couldn't celebrate it properly until now. She was currently engrossed in a conversation with Rose and her husband Scorpius Malfoy, she did not see her soon-to-be husband come up behind her, so when he wrapped his arms around her waist, she jumped. She turned to see her fiancé, his hair, as always, an electric turquoise, contrasting his soft brown eyes. "Hey Lily-pad," Teddy greeted with a peck on her cheek.
"Hey Teddy" She smiled.
"We were just reminiscing with Lily, when she finally got enough courage to make a move on you." Rose said wryly. The others chuckled.
"It was one strange day wasn't it." Teddy said.
Teddy was upset because Victoire kept bothering him convinced that he will want her back. To cheer him up, Lily decided to leave messages for him around the house. As the day progressed, Teddy became more interested in finding out who was leaving him the notes. Later that night, Lily met Teddy in the backyard of the Potter Manor. There she confessed her feelings, which she was happy to find out, he reciprocated. They shared their first kiss as a couple under the stars.
When they first started dating, Lily was still in Hogwarts, but Teddy promised to wait for her, and he held true. Now they were engaged to be married and Victoire had gotten over her feelings for Teddy long ago.
"You should open your presents now Lily." Molly cheered. Lily nodded and sat down next to Teddy on the love seat, everyone surrounding them. She picked up a pink package from Hermione and Ron; it was a leather bound photo album. Inside, many pictures were imbedded in the pages, with more blank ones, waiting their turn to be filled with memories. They got dish sets from Harry and Ginny, books from James and his girlfriend, and gift cards from almost everyone else. There was one last gift, a small box wrapped beautifully in gold paper.
Lily picked it up and read the card, "I hope this will help all of your deepest wishes come true." She flipped the card over and over.
"What's wrong Lily?" Fred asked.
"There is no name on this card." She replied handing the card to Teddy.
"Are you sure? There has to be a name." Hugo said.
"See for yourself." Teddy said, he handed Hugo the card.
"Wow, you're right, I don't see one."
"Should we open it?" Lily asked
"Hold on, let's make sure it's not hexed." Harry lifted his wand and charmed the box a few times. When nothing happened, he put his wand back in his pocket, "Go ahead there doesn't seem to be a jinx on it."
Lily nodded and slowly opened the box. Inside were three objects; the first being a glass, spherical ornament with silver dust inside, the second, a cube with different colors on each face, and then a red velvet bag with a gold drawstring. Lily held the ornament up for everyone to see.
"That is beautiful, it looks handmade." Molly said.
"Kind of a strange present don't you think? I mean, it's not even close to Christmas." Fred said.
"Who cares, it's beautiful, they can use it for other purposes to." Victoire said. Fred huffed.
The people talked for a few more hours before, one by one, leaving the Lupin household. "Come on Lily, tomorrow we start preparing for the wedding." Teddy said, leading his fiancé upstairs to their bedroom.
"I can't believe that Molly Weasley already planned a full wedding." She laughed.
"Well, you know her; she probably started the moment we announced our engagement." Teddy chuckled. They wrapped his arms around Lily, as she placed her head on his chest. They fell into a peaceful sleep.
