This is the final chapter. It is set when Teddy has done his first year at Hogwarts and he lives with Harry and Ginny.

Chapter 7- My Heart Will Go On

Teddy was sitting in the garden thinking about his life. He lived with his godfather Harry and his family. He loved it here, they all treated him as part of the family and he was really loved but he wasn't part of the family. His parents were dead. He never got to know them. He knew of them and about them. He knew his dad was a werewolf but was caring and extremely gentle and he knew his mother was a metamorphmagus and was loud and really outgoing but he didn't feel like he really knew them. He was so proud of them but he really longed for something more. He felt so alone. He couldn't speak to Harry about it he would think he was ungrateful. But he couldn't think of anyone else who would understand.

Ginny was cooking the dinner in the kitchen when something caught her eye. Teddy was sitting alone in the middle of the garden. He looked so sad. "Harry, come here a sec." she called. When Harry entered the kitchen she looked at him and said "What's wrong with Teddy? He hasn't been right ever since he came home from school. I mean look at him doesn't he look upset to you?" "Yeah I thought so as well, maybe I should speak to him. Call us in when dinners ready." and with that Harry went outside.

When Teddy heard someone approaching he turned around and said "Hey Harry." harry sat down next to him and said "What's the matter?" "Oh it's nothing just erm missing school." he replied. Harry looked at him and said "I'm not stupid, please tell me." teddy stood up and shouted "Look, it's none of you business just leave me alone" and he stormed off further in the garden.

Harry followed him and when he caught up with him said "Is it about your mom and dad?" and teddy looked at Harry and burst in to tears. "Yes, I miss them so much." and with this Harry pulled him in to a tight hug and just let him cry for as long as he needed. When Teddy had stopped crying they both sat down on the grass again.

Teddy said "Harry, I really love being here with you lot and I know you all love me as one of your own and I am so grateful for all you do for me but well..."

"... You still miss having you own family. Look I understand. My parents died when I was really young too and I know how hard this is. But your parents loved you so much they gave their lives for you so you could live in a world without fear." Harry grabbed his hand.

Teddy looked up at him and said "I can't get them out of my head. Everytime I look at you and your family I ache inside wishing I had that with my mom and dad, and everyone in school know my dad was a werewolf and most of them say horrible things about him and I get really upset. I can't even sleep because I always dream about them. How did you do it? How did you get over losing your parents?"

Every night in my dreams I see you, I feel you
That is how I know you go on.
Far across the distance and spaces between us
You have come to show you go on.
Near, far, wherever you are,
I believe that the heart does go on.

"I didn't. Everytime I sleep I dream about them. I look at my family and think what it would be like to still have them here. WI was getting married I thought they should be there. I have to live with all the dead in the war as they were all dying protecting me. They all laid their lives so I could do what I had to do. but I realised it should make us love them even more and you can tell them morons at school that your dad loved you so much he died to protect you but you don't have to prove to them what a hero your dad was. I know if you believe that he will be so proud."


Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart,
And my heart will go on and on.

He continued "Teddy, you have to live your life to the full to make sure their deaths weren't in vain and as long as your happy they will be too. but Teddy don't try and forget about them because if you always keep them in your heart they will always be there with you in whatever you do and all the big moments in your life they won't miss because they'll be there every step of the way! "

Love can touch us one time and last for a lifetime,
And never let go till we're gone.
Love was when I loved you, one true time I hold to
In my life we'll always go on.

"Harry thanks. I don't know what I'd do without you." and Teddy through himself on harry and gave him a bone crushing hug. "Teddy, I'm going to give you something, hold on. Jasper" Harry called then the apparated to him and Harry said "could you get my special safe for me please?" And with that the house elf was gone. "This is something I was given when I was given custody of you. I was told to give them you when you were ready for them. Well I think you ready!" and harry smiled at him.

The house elf returned with a tiny silver safe. Harry undid the enchantments on it and opened it up. Teddy looked in it and saw two wedding rings, an engagement ring, 2 wands and a box of some sort. Harry saw him looking and explained "The two wands are my Mothers and Fathers, but the rest is yours the rings are the ones your parents wore and this" extracting the other box "is what I was going to give you now" he gave the box to Teddy and he opened it. He saw 2 dog tag necklaces which had engravings on them. They read 'Remus and Dora' on the one side and on the other had 'Because You Loved Me'

Near, far, wherever you are,
I believe that the heart does go on.
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart,
And my heart will go on and on.

"These were you mom's and dad's and they were both wearing them when they died. This was your dad's last present to your mom. These will make sure you never forget what they did for you and as long as they are always safe in your heart you will never be unloved. They died for you 'Because they loved you' Teddy." and with that he left with the safe.

You're here, there's nothing I fear
And I know that my heart will go on.
We'll stay forever this way,
You are safe in my heart,
And my heart will go on and on.

Teddy put both of the dog tags on and he vowed to himself never to take them off because these were his parents telling him they loved him always have and always will.

This is the end of my story. I really hoped you liked it. Please read and review and tell me if there are anyway of improving it. Thanks!!
