"Hey," Hermione had been in deep thought, so hearing Harry's voice shocked her a bit. He'd been leaning against the door frame for a minute before he realized she was paying no attention to him. He entered her room to join her in sitting on her bed, Ron following right behind him.

"Oh, hi guys," Hermione greeted the two, moving to lay against her headboard. The boys took seats on either side of her, mimicking her actions. "Shouldn't you both be in bed?" Hermione asked, knowing it was somewhere around three in the morning.

They laughed. "Our best friend's wedding is tomorrow, and you didn't expect us to come in here and reminisce?" Ron scoffed. "Come on Hermione, I thought you were the smart one!"

Hermione and Harry shared an eye roll, but both laughed at their friend. "It feels like just yesterday that we reunited," Harry grinned.

Defeating Bellatrix seemed like a million years ago to Hermione. In actuality, it was only five. Five years. A lot had happened since then. Hermione could remember it all distinctly just by looking at the two boys. The tiny handprint on Harry's shirt told her that Albus had been playing in the dirt again, and it took her back to his birth.

Right after Rosalie had fallen unconscious, they all began talking, much like earlier in the living room. This time, the one to shut them up was Ginny, yelling, "Holy Merlin! My water just broke!"

Hermione still chuckled at the memory of the shock and fear on the receptionist's face when ten vampires (Emmett was taking care of Rose) and Harry Potter demanded a healer and some help for his pregnant wife. Hermione wanted to cry it was so hilarious. He'd looked like he was going to pee himself, if he hadn't already.

After 18 long hours of labor, which had Blaise filling everyone in on what had happened, also led to Hermione realizing she could not remember several things. This included, but was not limited to; how to speak latvian, how to play chess, Ron's middle name, and the 12 uses of dragon's blood (which Ron told her with a huge smirk on his face).

Hermione momentarily forgot what she'd forgotten when an exhausted Harry asked if they'd like to meet Albus Severus for the first time. He looked identical to Harry, minus the scar. The good part was that the couple had an overabundance of babysitters.

Jacob had to relay the whole story to the wolves, but instead of being angry, they all seemed to be a lot happier when they realized that Bellatrix was no longer a problem for them or anyone else.

Not long after the birth, Rosalie woke up. She thanked Blaise immensely for saving her life and the two became best friends not long after. Hermione found it odd, but when she questioned Rosalie, the blonde simply shrugged and said, "He picks out good outfits for me." Hermione knew that Blaise and Rosalie's friendship was deeper than that, and she told Blaise this. He said it was strange, but it worked for the two. Everyone agreed.

Emmett didn't mind the relationship, which surprised Hermione, taking him for a jealous guy. Then he flexed and shrugged, smirking. "I have a feeling he's not the type of guy to come across a guy of my stature." When Hermione reminded him that Blaise owned a wand he frowned, but shrugged again, muttering something about 'pansy' and 'arm wrestling'.

Another problem that had been quickly resolved after the awakening of Rosalie was Jacob. She had to confirm that Jacob was just doing what she'd asked when he'd been aiming to kill her. She told Jacob that destroying his car made them even since he didn't kill her. When a huge wad of cash and a car magazine was mailed to him, Rosalie denied everything. Even with her denial though, there seemed to be a large decrease in the blonde jokes. This was not just because Draco threatened to turn Jacob him into an actual puppy if he didn't shut up. (It was part of it though.)

Hermione laughed as Ron did an impression of the cupid that had sent Harry his very special valentine in second year. Harry stuck his tongue out at the two, "I married her, too."

There was a small moment of silence when Ron sighed. "Why is everyone getting married now?" He asked. He was referring not only to Hermione, but to Fred, George, and Draco as well. The three had spent nearly a year learning fluent french so that they'd be able to hit on girls when they moved to Europe. However, they did not think that a trip to India would have them meeting three gorgeous women. Two were Indian, one Irish (on a business trip). Draco found love with the Irish girl while the twins were now embracing the Indian culture.

Fred and George were both having weddings in winter while Draco was planning to propose that exact night.

Hermione smiled at Ron fondly. "Do you think you and Hannah will take the next step soon?" Ron had been dating Hannah Abbott for almost two years now. They'd run into each other at the ministry and the rest was history.

Ron grinned down at his vampire friend. "That depends..." He reached into his pocket, pulling out a black box. "Do you think she'll like it?"

Hermione gasped as she looked at the gorgeous ring in the little box. "I think she'll love it," Harry and Hermione chorused.

Just gazing at the ring reminded Hermione of the day she'd been first asked on a date by her bethrothed...

She'd been sitting on the porch swing in the backyard of their house when she was joined by both Blaise and Draco.

"Hello Hermione," Blaise said, taking a seat beside her and kicking the ground to move the seat a bit.

She nodded in greeting as Draco leaned against the handrail around the porch. He smirked at the curly headed brunette. "So, Granger...word around the house is you've got the hots for a certain vampire with interestingly colored hair."

"Don't flatter yourself Malfoy," she rolled her eyes playfully.

"Well, Granger, I wasn't speaking of myself, but if you'd like to continue this conversation somewhere more private-" He didn't finish, for Blaise had gotten up and pushed him over the railing. Draco simply flipped backwards, landing on his feet and raising a brow to the Italian.

Blaise sat back down and looked at Hermione. "'Mione, darling, we know... We're quite interested in what is going on with you and Mr. Intense. Bronze head. Edward Cullen."

"What?" Hermione asked, actually seeming a bit suprised at the two. "What are you talking about?"

"Please," Blaise huffed. "We're not idiots, no matter how much you like to pretend." He winked at her. "We saw the hug given to you a few days ago. He was glad you were okay, and you were glad that he was glad you were okay."

Hermione rolled her eyes again. "There isn't anything going on between us."

"Longing in the voice," Draco commented.

"Noted," Blaise nodded.

Hermione groaned. "What do you two want?"

"Hermione, do you even have a smidgen of feelings for Mr. Intense?" Draco asked, looking adamantly at the brunette.

"Maybe..."

"Then go!" Blaise said immediately. "Go! Go! Fly away little bat! Go!"

Hermione shoved him lightly. "What exactly am I supposed to say?"

"Do I look like a know-it-all to you?" Blaise asked. "Don't answer that. I am a genius. Of course I look the part. You are going to march into his house-"

"Don't do that. Marching isn't sexy unless it comes with an outfit," Draco smirked.

"Shut up," Hermione and Blaise said, pushing him off the railing yet again.

"Demand a date. He looks like he's as eager to ask you out as you are," Blaise grinned.

Hermione looked between the two. "What if he says no?" She asked, raising her brows.

"Then we'll kill him," Draco shrugged. "Just go, love. Have fun and be back by midnight or I'll rip his arm off."

"Malfoy!" Hermione complained.

"Yes dear?" Draco smiled.

Hermione smiled back. "Thanks."

"You're welcome. Now go," Blaise ushered her to the side of the yard where she waved good bye and sped off.

She'd done exactly as asked, sped to the Cullen's. Edward was the one to answer the door, and before Hermione could even get a greeting in, he was asking her if she'd like to go dancing later. After she responded with a positive answer, he admitted that Rosalie and Alice had just tormented him about his feelings for her.

Hermione was thrilled and the couple was welcomed by everyone. It had even caused for a vast improvement in everyone's lives. Because both of them were extremely intelligent, they had plenty of ideas that helped the vampires' lives as 'humans'.

A warming charm was placed on them, making their hands feel of average temperature. They had a glamour charm on the sparkling so they never even sparkled in the sunlight anymore. Hermione found this a vast improvement. She wasn't fond of looking like a fairy. They added another charm for their eyes and skin, helping to fix the identical looks.

With the help of Blaise, Hermione learned latvian again, learning quickly because she already knew the language. With the powerful language, Hermione and Blaise managed to actually dilute the bloodlust of everyone. They only had to kill one bear and every Cullen would be satisfied.

While learning latvian, Hermione remembered the very beginning of their whole 'adventure' when she had grabbed the twins hands and said, 'Protect us' in latvian. The mystery of why Edward couldn't read their minds and why they had no scent was finally solved.

Another mystery was brought to light when Draco looked into Alice's eyes while he asked if the shirt he was wearing looked good. She replied very honestly, saying, "It looks good if you're Kermit the frog". She frowned when he asked her how it made him look like a frog. Then her eyes suddenly lit up and she happily announced to the room that she'd found another hidden power amongst them. If Draco looked into the eye of someone and asked them a question or something similar, they said whatever was on their mind at the moment. It solved the odd scene in the classroom the first day of classes.

Hermione sighed as she thought about all of the events that had happened. She grabbed her two best friends' hands and grinned. "I don't think anything can beat us anymore."

The boys smiled, "Nothing ever could."

"I'm serious. We've gone through so much and here we are..."

"I hope you plan on this being a permanent situation 'cause we're not leaving," Ron grinned.

Hermione nodded. "Good, but I have a wedding tomorrow. You two need to sleep!"

"You know what I was thinking?" Harry asked.

"What?" Hermione wondered.

"Blaise is the only one without someone. We should set him up. Find him a girl," Harry thought aloud.

Hermione snickered. "That's nice, Harry...but...Blaise is gay."

AN: It's over...wow.

I like the last chapter the best...I'm not sure why. I hope you guys had an awesome time reading this! :D

R&R!
