3:00 PM

A furious knock on the door startled James and Lily out of their quiet watching of their baby Harry playing with his toys. Lily looked confusedly at James before going to the door. They hadn't been expecting anyone.

When Lily opened the door she gasped loudly making James run to her with Harry in his arms. He gasped almost louder than his wife at the sight of Regulus, Angie and an adorable baby girl in her arms. Angie smiled, "Nice to see you too. Sorry we didn't call first. We couldn't for obvious reasons."

After they were ushered inside and Lily called everyone to come over, the reunion was sweet.

When Ginny arrived first with Remus she immediately went to hug Angie before she stopped short, seeing the baby girl in her best friends arms. "Is this your daughter?" she whispered...

Angie smiled, "Yes. This is Rosalind Isla Black."

"Beautiful name," Remus commented. Just then Hermione and Sirius rushed in. Sirius greeted his brother excitedly as Hermione made a bee line for Angie. Hermione cooed sweetly, "Is this your baby? Whats her name?"

"Rosalind Isla Black," Ginny answered sweetly. The two women cooed at the giggling baby. Angie asked, "Do you guys want to hold her?" Ginny nodded frantically and practically snatched the baby from Angie's arms making her laugh good naturedly. Angie then turned to Lily who was holding a quiet Harry, "Hand over my nephew and nobody gets hurt," she joked. Lily chuckled and placed Harry in her arms.

Angie stared at her best guy friend from the future as a baby. He looked so cute and little and innocent. Before everything in his life went wrong... he looked happy. He stared up at her in awe with his mouth hanging open and his baby green eyes wide. Angie smiled, "Hi baby Harry. I'm your Auntie Angie." She put him in line of sight of baby Rosalind and said, "And this is your new best friend, Rosalind."

James laughed, "Ten galleons says those two end up getting married."

Regulus playfully growled, "Not if I can help it."

Angie lightly smacked his arm, "Harry would be perfect for Rosie. In the future Harry didn't have any special someone. But then again she didn't exist in that future."

James was silent for a moment, "...you knew Harry?... in your time?"

Angie sighed and nodded, "We were really close. Your son will become a great person. But that's all I can tell you, I'm sorry." James nodded understandingly but it still warmed his heart to know that Harry would grow up okay.

Angie sat down besides Ginny and began bouncing Harry on her knee, making him giggled loudly. Rosalind squealed in glee at the sight and threw her arms up in the imitation of clapping she'd seen her parents do whenever they played with her.

Angie leaned down and kiss her daughter's head before resuming bouncing Harry. The green eyed boy laughed gleefully as Rosalind 'clapped' even more. Hermione and Ginny whispered conspiratorially about how to get Harry and Rosalind together while Angie rolled her eyes at them in amusement.

Hours passed as the friends got caught up and spent the precious time they had together. They all knew that soon Angie, Regulus and Rosalind would have to leave. They would miss their best friend, her husband and their bubbly little girl.

Soon... came too soon as Angie stood from her place with the girls on the sofa. Harry and Rosalind were giggling and playing with each other in the play pen as Rosalind looked up at her mother in wonder. Angie gave Regulus a look. It was time to go. Again.

Regulus nodded sadly. He got hugged goodbye by Hermione, Ginny and Lily first. Then they all practically tackled Angie, in tears. That made Angie start tearing up as well. And as inappropriate as it was at the moment, Angie thought about how she had never cried so much in her life as she had in the past two years.

While Regulus and Sirius said their brotherly goodbye Angie and James said theirs. James wrapped his arms around her shoulders and Angie dug her face into his chest. With a deep sigh they pulled away from each other. James wrapped a hand in her hair, "Get a hair cut." They laughed at the joke before Angie mutely nodded.

Angie went to pick Rosalind out of the play pen when she started crying. It wasn't a loud shrill cry, Rosalind barely cried. It was one of those soft sad cries that pulled on your heart strings. Angie nearly cried with her. Little Harry started to sniffle as well swinging his hands up and down. But Angie took Rosalind into her arms and started whispering, "I know you don't want to go. I'm sorry baby, I am."

Lily picked up Harry who now had big tears drooping down his baby cheeks. Lily bounced him around on her hip, trying to calm him down. They went to the door, even though they were aparating out. Regulus wrapped his arms around Angie and Rosalind, before they were gone.
