Summer Fling

Epilogue

James and Scorpius had been married for fifteen years now and were standing with their two children on platform 9 ¾ to see them off. Three years after their wedding they had decided to have a second child and Carina Ginevra Malfoy-Potter was going to Hogwarts for the first time this year.

"What do you think which House I will be in?" Carina asked her older brother, who was about to start his fifth year already.

"You, Cara, are a Slytherin through and through," Leo said and ruffled with his hand through her long, raven black hair.

Carina glared at him angrily and his brown eyes shone with amusement.

"As long as I'm not in Gryffindor with you," she replied snottily.

James and Scorpius who had heard her laughed and hugged her.

"We will miss you, Cara," Scorpius said.

"You too of course, Leo," James added.

"Oh, look there are Teddy and Victoire with Vénus, Dora, Cassiopeia and Remus," Scorpius noted.

Vénus was now sixteen and was about to start her sixth year at Hogwarts. Dora was fourteen, Cassiopeia was thirteen and Remus would be in first year together with Carina.

They exchanged greetings and the children were warned one last time to behave, before they boarded the train. Carina and Remus leaned out of the window to wave their parents good bye. Then the train slowly left the station and James and Scorpius lost sight of Carina.

"You will keep an eye on them during the school year, won't you?" James asked Teddy and Victoire who were still working at Hogwarts as DADA teacher and school nurse.

"Of course, we've been looking after Leo these past few years, haven't we?" Teddy replied.

"Yes, you have and that's not an easy feat. Merlin, that boy attracts trouble wherever he goes," Scorpius said and shook his head in despair. "I blame the Potter-genes."

"Well, at least Carina seems to take after you," James said the next morning as he read Carina's letter that had arrived with the morning post.

"So she was sorted into Slytherin?" Scorpius grinned triumphantly.

"Yes, and Remus is in Gryffindor. Now Teddy and Victoire have one child in each House," James laughed.

"You don't seem to mind that your daughter is a Slytherin," Scorpius remarked.

"Oh you know some Slytherins aren't that bad if you get to know them," James said, wrapped his arms around his husband and kissed him. No, some Slytherins aren't so bad after all.
