Epilogue Platform 9¾

1st September 2008

Harry stood on the platform and watched the hustle and bustle he had strong notice me not charms on like normal if he was out in public but for the first time in thirteen years he was about to take them off in a public place for today was the day his and Astoria's eldest, James a living replica of his grandfather with eh spirit of his great dog father, left for Hogwarts.

It only took a year and a half until Harry understood when Astoria said that they would be back in Britain permanently in thirteen years after the battle. He could still remember when she walked into the room and told him she was pregnant.

Of course her father was less than pleased as she had only just turned sixteen which was younger than Harry had intended but well what is done is done her mother said before mumbling that it took longer than she thought it would.

Of course the wedding was small with family only and like every day she took his breath away.

Since then they had lived in the Pacific Ocean making Brittan feel extremely cold but well James turned eleven last February so it was time for him to go to Hogwarts and Jasmin, Harry's and Astoria's youngest who was almost a spitting image of her mother but with green eyes and more of a seekers build than her mother had who was dainty and fragile as Harry liked to call her much to her chagrin, would be two years behind.

Harry saw Astoria and Jasmin come through the portal closely followed by James who unlike most first years was eager and ready to get to Hogwarts and wasn't scared of anything. Both of the kids were pure pranksters and unlike the marauders these two would happily use muggle ways as well meaning that any detection spells wouldn't work. Oh Harry couldn't wait until the first floo call form McGonagall came through Harry could only think of one word to express the excitement he felt about that conversation and that was delirious but it wouldn't surprise him if it got even worse when jasmine got there although thinking about it maybe they wouldn't get caught after all they took after both him and Astoria her cunningness with his boldness. Oh Hogwarts was in for a rough ride these next nine years and maybe more as Astoria was talking about having another child when both the others left for school, of course she had laughed as he dragged her up the stairs of the castle to the bed room saying that they could practice as she decided.

The platform seemed to stop moving when Harry removed his notice me not charm and hugged his wife.

Looking around he noticed that it had got quiet which wouldn't last long. Of course he was right. As soon as the first camera went off that was it there were shouts and pleas for autographs on all sorts of things someone who must have been a sixth or seventh year asked him to sign her bra making James grin and Astoria grip her wand in her pocket tightly.

After singing a few autographs and having a few pictures taken they had finally made it up to the train where Harry helped James get in and find a compartment where he bumped into Oliver wood.

"Hey Olli" Harry said

"Harry Potter." Oliver said grinning "how come you haven't joined united yet?"

"Wood I am not joining a professional quidditch team I like my island and don't need more fame." Harry said laughing.

"Drat well this is Jake he's my eldest." Oliver said pointing out the child behind him who was obviously a first year and a spitting image of his father.

"Oliver James, James Oliver." Harry said pointing them out to each other

"Why don't we get you two settled in then?" Oliver said opening the door to a compartment.
