Chapter 8: The future
11 years later…
"Mom, it is time for Hogwarts," said Ronald JR
"Yeah mum, let's get going. I just can't wait for the school in which you and dad met," said Suzie
"Ok, but there's a story I need to tell you," said a much older Hermione (she became a teacher at Hogwarts and she fallen in love again and got married to a wizard named Jackson Seal, who realized that she'll forever love Ron Weasley and was okay with that).
"What is it Mom?" said Ronald
"I need you to come and get your sister too," said Hermione
"Ok mum," said Ron getting his sister
"I just need to tell you something about your father," said Hermione
"The one I'm named after," said Ron JR
"Yes, you see your dad he was the bravest man. But he died to keep you safe. So don't be afraid to make new friends at Hogwarts cause making friends is the greatest thing you can do, you may find your love of your life at school," said Hermione smiling
"Ok mum," said Susie
"Yes mum," said Ron JR
"If you see plaques, read them cause some have to deal with your dad and there's a painting of your dad at Hogwarts. You two and I have never seen your dad before and the weekends your mum will take you to see your dad," said Jackson smiling
"We will dad," said Ron JR
2 days later…
"Time to go, goodbye Ron JR, Susie and James (Lupin and Sirius' son)," said Harry waving from the train as they got on the train and got to a booth.
"Umm, is that seat taken," said a new kid
"No, you can come in," said Susie
"My name is Cara Balso," said the new girl
"My name is Ron Weasley JR and this is my sister Susie and our friend James Black," said Ron
"No way, are you two a relation to a Ron Weasley?" asked Cara
"Yes he's our father and John's the son of our godfather Sirius," said Susie
"That's wicked. Do you know how famous you two are?" said Cara
"No, don't you mean James," said Ron
"No I mean your father," said Cara
"Is our father even more famous than our uncle Sirius?" asked Susie
"Yes, you can keep it because I have 20 of him," said Cara showing her card
"Ronald Arthur Weasley SR was a 7th year in Hogwarts School of witchcraft and wizardry which is located in Britain. He had 6 siblings. He was born from an Arthur and Molly Weasley. He would've graduated from the school except he was killed and he helped in the defeat of Voldemort. He's known as 'the man who died for the world.' He'd made friends with a Harry Potter (4428) and a Hermione Granger (4429). He's number 4430 in the series," read Ron JR in awe
"Wow, our dad is a hero and is famous and thank you," said Susie
"I wished he didn't die, I want to know him more. Oh well maybe we can research on him and maybe learn how he meant to our family," said Ron as Hogwarts landed to a halt
"Get into one of the boats," said the new gamekeeper
"Just can't wait," said Ron JR getting into the boats and traveled to Hogwarts not knowing that someone was watching them and always will. Once there, Mcgonagall was waiting for them and once she saw Ron she thought he was the spiting image of his father.
"First years I'm headmistress Mcgonagall and please follow me," said Mcgonagall as she leaded the first years into the great hall. Then Ron JR saw a big painting of who he guessed to be his father
"Susie, I think that's a picture of our father cause that man in the painting looks a lot like me," said Ron awing the picture
"I think you are right," said Susie
"First years, if you're wondering about the painting it was put up in here to celebrate the 10 years that we were freed from Voldemort's grasp and to honour the one who did it. He was one of the most powerful wizards in the whole entire world but he gave up his life so that we may live. His name was Ronald Weasley SR and may he rest in peace. Enough about that, now when I call your name you must come up and sit under the sorting hat," said Mcgonagall as she lifted up the hat and began to call a name. "Andy, John."
"Ravenclaw," said the sorting hat
"Brian, Tom."
"Slytherin."
"Black, James"
"You are a Gryffindor."
"Candy, Sara."
"Hufflepuff."
"Dannik, Eric"
"Slytherin."
"Fan, Chow."
"Hufflepuff"
"Harrison, Frank."
"Gryffindor."
"Jackson, Michelle."
"Ravenclaw"
"Leblanc, George"
"Ravenclaw"
"Raven, Julia"
"Hufflepuff"
"Stevens, Stephanie"
"Ravenclaw"
"Terrence, Bill"
"Slytherin,"
"Weasley JR, Ronald"
"I know what to do with you. Gryffindor." Then Ron went and grabbed a seat at Gryffindor. Then it was Suzie's turn.
"Weasley, Suzie"
"Gryffindor,"
"Oh Yes we got the Weasley twins. Their father was so cool I heard and was good at Quidditch," said a 4th year Gryffindor
"Now I hope you enjoy Hogwarts. Now tuck in," said McGonagall and the food appeared and the Hermione went to see her son and daughter
"Congratulations your dad would be proud of you. I know because I am," said Hermione
"Thanks mum," said Ron JR
"Oh & there's no mum during school. During school I am Professor Seal," said Hermione
"Professor what do you teach?" asked Suzie
"Transfiguration, so I'll see you then and don't say I'll go easy on you because I will not pass you on easy marks, so you three have to study" said Hermione
"Don't worry, we will," said Ron JR and then someone came and stood behind Hermione while Hermione was walking away
"Professor, someone is standing behind you," said Suzie not recognizing whom it is and Hermione looked around and saw the one person she missed most.
"Oh my gosh Ron is it really you," said Hermione smiling and went to hug him
"Hi there Hermione. Yes it is really me and you still look as beautiful as the day I first met you, I am glad that you found someone," said Ron smiling
"Thanks Ron for that lovely complement," said Hermione
"Not a big deal Hermione. I just felt like saying something nice for once," said Ron smiling his Ron smile
"I love you," said Hermione
"And I love you too my Mione," said Ron
"I miss you so very much," said Hermione
"I miss you too Hermione," said Ron
"Jackson will never be able to replace you. There are some cute children I want you to meet," said Hermione bringing Ron to meet their children "Ron JR and Suzie this is your father."
"DADDY!" said the kids hugging their dad
"Hey there guys. I'm sorry that you never do anything with me. I just came to visit and see my kids," said Ron SR smiling while hugging his children
"You are my Uncle Ron?" asked James
"Yeah and who might you be sport?" said Ron
"He's your nephew kind of, Sirius and Lupin got married 11 years ago, Lupin proposed to Sirius and they got married and had James," said Hermione
"That's good and might I say that you James are the spitting image of your father Lupin except for the hair. The hair is defiantly Sirius'," said Ron
"Thank you Uncle Ron but why did you die?" said James
"Well James, I died because of a wizard who I had as a rat who I regretted protecting him killed me. He found a spell that caused 4 stab wounds in my body. Even if I didn't die because of that I would have died protecting your dads and mom. I love you guys so much and don't you worry, I'll always be watching over you guys," smiled Ron SR
"NO WAY! YOU ARE RON WEASLEY! CAN I HAVE YOUR AUTOGRAPH!" shrieked Cara and Ron nodded and signed his card
"Well, I have to go, Hermione watch the kids ok. Make sure they don't do anything stupid because they are Weasley's. You know how stupid I can get. Goodbye my family, till we meet again," smiled Ron as he began to fade away
"Yeah, Goodbye Ron, I love you. We are so very proud of you," said Hermione
"Goodbye dad. I love you oh so very much and I am proud of you," said Ron and Suzie
"Goodbye Uncle Ron, I love you," said James
"James, Ronald, Suzie there's something I want to show you. You guys have plenty of time for class. So if you don't mind follow me," said Hermione
"I think you should show them that spot," said Mcgonagall giving them permission
"Follow me kids," said Hermione leading the children to a special spot
"Mom, why are we here?" asked Susie
"This is where your father and I relax before our exams and if you go behind that tree you see something special," said Hermione as the twins went behind the tree and saw it
"Mom it's our dad's grave. He wanted to be buried near Hogwarts," said Ron JR in shock
"Yes so that he could never be far away if you need him," said Hermione
"We all love you dad and we miss you," said Susie crying onto her mum's chest
"Yeah pops, thank you for risking your life for us," knelled Ron JR as he ran his fingers through the words of his father's grave.
"We all love you," said a familiar voice
"Harry you are here," said Hermione hugging him
"Yeah me and my wife thought to visit him," said Harry bringing out his wife who was 4 months pregnant
"Ginny, I am so sorry," said Hermione
"Don't be Hermione he had to save us. He was so and probably still is in love with you. My brother's so stubborn," said Ginny hugging Hermione "I'm glad you found someone to be the dad to your kids. Susie and Ron JR, your dad would be proud of you for making Gryffindor. I know that we are."
"I sure am, you two goofballs," said Harry messing up Ron JR's hair
"Stop it Uncle Harry," said Ron JR moving away from Harry
"I see that you are expecting now after 8 years of marriage," said Jackson
"Jack you're here? Why are you here?" said Hermione
"I just had to see the guy who saved my wife's life and the world. I actually never saw the grave site of the bravest man in the world," said Jackson
"You know if he was alive, I would be married to him and not you," said Hermione
"I know but I'm ever so thankful that I met you. You are such a smart individual and that is one of the things that made me fall deep in love with. It is too bad I never got to thank Ron in person. Goodbye Ron SR," said Jackson. Then they started to leave Ron's grave but not before saying something.
"We love you and we always will," said Ron JR, Susie, James, Hermione, Harry, Ginny, and Mr. Weasley (he visits every single day because 3 years earlier Mrs. Weasley passed away and they had buried Mrs. Weasley right next to Ron)
"I'll love you forever my Hermione. You are the greatest woman I have ever known. We'll be together again, I promise. Just know this. I'm always watching you, always," whispered the wind in Hermione's ears and when she heard it she realized that he was watching all of them and that they will always be safe. She couldn't help but smile at that. What it said on Ron's faded tombstone was:
Ronald Arthur Weasley
Born: March 1 1989
Died: June 10 2006
Son of Arthur & Molly Weasley
Brother of Bill, Charlie, Percy, Fred, George & Ginny Weasley
Best friend of Harry Potter
Lover to Hermione Granger
And hero to the world
They may have killed him
But they could never kill his spirit
He shall be forever missed
But what was new was: Beloved father to Susie and Ronald Weasley Jr. Then they went back to school knowing that they were being watched with protective eyes and will be forever loved
THE END
