Harry had enjoyed the date as much as the after, perhaps more. He agreed to be Charlie's boyfriend if the dates continued. Percy was the only brother who didn't know yet but they had no worries about him. Arthur had his suspicions but he had not voiced them. Ron had taken Lavender out a few days later and they were back together it seemed. Molly was so busy with the wedding in just over a week, and watching Ginny, she was oblivious. Ginny was in pain but reminded Hermione would be back for the wedding. Hedwig had made a few trips to and from France for the two of them. Harry was happy to lend her to keep his best friend and his former girlfriend in touch through the rough time.

A few days before the wedding Harry was so happy to head to the hospital. He had been visiting every day since school but this was different. He wouldn't be leaving the hospital alone this time. He had been so worried he'd lose Remus and grateful that he was on his way home now.

Harry smiled when Remus was already dressed. "Anxious are we?"

Remus smiled. "Never so much."

Harry kissed his cheek. "I guess hospitals aren't my favorite place either."

A voice came from the door. "Poppy may be sad to hear that. She seems to think you enjoy your visits."

Harry turned to Severus. "Like a hole in my head."

Severus smirked. "I don't believe you have tried that one yet."

Remus shook his head. "Don't give him ideas."

Harry pouted. "I am not that bad."

Remus smiled. "I do believe your boyfriend holds the record."

"Perhaps I should put the pair of you to work this summer since you will be close. Replenish my stocks."

Harry was surprised. "Planning on moving in to Grimmauld with us?"

Remus saw Severus' look. "Actually cub, I thought we'd accept Narcissa's offer."

Harry was a bit surprised but shrugged. "I guess the manor is spacious enough."

Harry had wondered about his godfather and Severus. He knew they were friends in school and had been close since. He had a feeling the location was in part due to Severus. Not totally, as the man could have come to Grimmauld which had a lab. Remus thought it would be good for them all. Harry looked a bit skeptical but he didn't argue. He reminded himself it was only six weeks and the manor was huge. Severus mentioned there was a pool and home theater in the room as well. And there would be some privacy for him and Charlie unlike the Burrow.

Harry still wasn't sure about this when they arrived at the manor. He was reminded they were family through Sirius and he got to know them. He had encouraged George to ask Draco out. It seemed that he and Charlie had not been the only ones to have a successful first date, or more.

Narcissa smiled when they arrived. "I am glad you accepted."

Remus smiled. "Thank you for inviting us."

"Harry is of course my adopted cousin. And Severus like a brother."

Harry smirked at his godfather. "Oh we wouldn't forget Severus.""

Remus blushed. "Keep that up and I tell your Aunt about your own man."

"Admitting he is your man are you?"

Lucius laughed. "Any friends, or boyfriend, are of course welcome."

Draco groaned. "Just what we need, an infestation of lions."

Harry turned to him. "I think there is one lion you'd not mind."

Remus motioned. "You should settle in. You have the bachelor party tonight."

Harry followed Remus upstairs. "Charlie will be waiting."

Remus stopped when they were at Harry's room there. "I have something I wanted to discuss."

"If it is about Severus, you know I am fine."

Remus kissed his cheek. "It means the world. But it is about you and me."

"About us?"

Remus handed him forms. "I want you to know it's your decision."

"Adoption papers?"

"Your mum and dad once said, if they died… you will always be my son either way."

Harry hugged him. "I want this."

Remus knew Harry was almost an adult and it was a formality but it meant a lot to them both. They had grown a lot closer since Sirius was killed. Remus had been at school again and they had spent a lot of time tutoring. Remus almost dying had made them see what they both wanted. Harry signed the forms, becoming Harry Lupin-Potter. He could admit how much it meant to him and Remus assured him he felt the same way about it. Harry did make a crack about having Severus as a stepfather though. Remus simply blushed when he heard that and didn't admit anything.

Harry headed from the manor after settling in. He had agreed to go out with the boys for Bill's bachelor party. It was a few days early but they didn't want to be hung over for the wedding. And there would be a dinner the night before the wedding for them to attend as well.

Charlie smiled when he saw Harry. "How did it go?"

Harry told him it all. "It feels right."

Charlie kissed him. "I know how much it means."

A voice came from behind. "What the hell are you doing?"

Harry turned a worried eye. "Percy….."

Charlie smirked. "Watch it little brother."

Percy actually smiled. "Do you think it was a surprise?"

Ron grunted. "Speak for yourself."

Bill snorted. "Not everyone is so blind."

Charlie motioned. "We should head out."

Harry groaned. "Not sure how I got taken on a pub crawl."

Ginny reminded him. "Not the only one."

Bill reminded him. "Can still have fun."

In reality they both agreed and were happy to be there for Bill. Ginny was just relieved her dad had got her permission to come out. He had reminded his wife that Ginny was in the wedding party for her brother. And that it would be nice for Bill to have all his siblings go out. The bars provided a spelled bracelet to show them as minors so they didn't get alcohol. It was still a good time and Bill cheered his sister up a bit.

Bill told her. "Fleur's parents had more than one of her bridal party in tow when they arrived this afternoon."

Molly was in a tizzy the morning of the wedding. There had been a dinner the night before. It had been held in town as the wedding was here. Hermione had not been at the dinner and Molly didn't know she was soon to arrive. Fleur had repeated that she wanted Hermione to be a part. And Bill had more than agreed with his fiancé. Hermione may not be a member like Harry was, but she was always welcome with the brothers. And if she and Ginny married one day, she would be a very welcome sister in law as well. Ron was encourage to invite Lavender to attend.

Harry had dressed with Bill and the boys up in Ron's room. He was of course on Fleur's side, but gay or not, he would not change with them. He reluctantly went to head down. He cared about Fleur a lot but it felt odd to be in her party and not stand with Bill.

He smiled when he saw Hermione arrive. "How are you?"

Hermione kissed his cheek. "Feeling better. Nice to see my parents."

Fleur smiled when they both arrived. "Happy you both came."

Hermione actually kissed her cheek. "Thank you."

The happy moment ended when Molly arrived. "What the hell are you doing here?"

Hermione looked at the woman startled. "I was invited."

"You can consider yourself uninvited."

Fleur stepped in. "This is William's and I's wedding. And I have asked her to be a bridesmaid."

Molly rounded on Fleur. "I will not see Her in my son's wedding."

"Then you are welcome not to attend. She is my bridesmaid." Fleur held firm.

Molly was stunned. "William is my son."

"And he wants you there. But this is Our wedding and we will decide who is a part."

Molly was red. "My son would….."

"Your son agrees with me. We both asked her to be here."

Arthur came in. "We should go to our seats."

Molly was stuttering. "This can't be happening."

Arthur turned to Hermione when his wife left and kissed her cheek. "I am happy you came back."

Hermione looked at Fleur. "I am sorry I caused problems."

Fleur shook her off. "You didn't."

They could see Ginny's happiness when she arrived and she saw Hermione there. They didn't get a proper reunion as they had to soon go down. The wedding was being held in the orchard and then there was a tent set up for the reception after. Though Harry felt odd, he did smile when his boyfriend got to escort him to the front. Ginny and Hermione of course didn't get the same, as they were both serving for Fleur. Molly was still angry but she held her tongue as she watched Hermione there. She was so happy to see her son get married even if not her favorite choice.

Bill and Fleur were so happy as they took their vows and became husband and wife. Bill could not take his eyes from his beautiful bride. As they shared a kiss neither of them could wait to start a life together and everyone was so happy for them.

Molly hugged her son after the wedding. "I am happy for you."

Bill returned it. "Thank you."

Molly pushed. "I am not happy about….."

Bill cut her off. "She is Fleur's bridesmaid. I will not discuss this."

"You won't speak to me like…."

"This is our wedding and I will not let it be ruined."

Arthur offered Fleur his hand. "Welcome to the family."

Fleur smiled. "Thank you."

Ginny pulled Hermione away and into the orchard. "Merlin I have missed you."

Hermione nodded. "It has been hell."

Ginny pulled her into a long passionate kiss. "I was worried we'd have to wait till school."

Hermione felt Ginny's hand along her breast. "We should…."

Ginny cut her off. "We won't be missed for a bit. I missed this."

Hermione moaned as Ginny latched on to her ear. "Your mum…."

Ginny pulled back with a small smile. "Nothing to hide anymore."

Hermione was back for a few more days. She would return to France with the Delacaurs as it stood. She had nowhere here and didn't see staying with the Malfoys. Besides she could admit it meant a lot to see her parents and spend some time with them. They told her to tell Ginny she was always welcome for a visit with them any time. Ginny of course was only sixteen and except during school, was restricted by her mother.

Harry watched the others dancing. "I wish we could."

Charlie looked at him. "We could."

"We don't want to ruin his wedding."

Charlie sighed. "She will have to accept us."

"Like she did Hermione?"

Charlie looked over at Ron. "He brought Lavender."

Harry had noticed. "I hope it may help."

Charlie agreed. "It's nice seeing him happy too."

"He was a fool to dump her."

"I thought you called her a myna bird?"

Harry didn't deny it. "She has grown. And better match."

Charlie pulled Harry up. "Dance with me."

"Your mum….."

Charlie shook his head. "You are my boyfriend."

Harry was reminded that the brothers all knew as well as Ginny of course. And Fleur who supported them as Bill did of course. Molly was distracted anyways and Charlie wanted to dance with his boyfriend. Harry allowed himself to be led to dance, but off a bit more private, so not to make a huge show of it. Harry could admit how wonderful it felt even when he was worried about Molly seeing. The bed sport was fun but he wanted a future with this man and not simply hiding away from things. Charlie pulled Harry into a long warm kiss which Harry didn't fight.

They were broken apart when Harry saw what he feared. "Molly."

Molly stood there in total shock. "What are you doing?"

Charlie held Harry. "Dancing with my boyfriend."
