The characters of the Harry Potter universe belong to Ms. Rowlings. I'm borrowing them for my own imagination.

Chapter 51 - What Would James, Lily, Sirius and Fred Think?

"Thanks for coming with me tonight." Harry told Ron and Hermione as they quietly made their through the graveyard.

Because the trio had so much to attend to with the memorial and feast, they waited until after most of the attendees had left before touring Hogwarts and it's grounds. The Weasleys, Lupins, Longbottoms, Cornwells, Dudley and Luna waited and walked with them. Ron and Percy both choked up as they passed by the spot where Fred had been killed. George had clung tightly to Luna's hand as he saw that his and Fred's pond was still there with a plaque above it paying tribute to them both.

As everyone prepared to leave for their respective homes, Ginny hugged Harry tightly and kissed, they would not see each other until the wedding the next day at Hogwarts. Dudley had gone home with Hermione's mum and step-dad who would be bringing him back for the wedding the next day. Minerva had arranged for Harry, Ron, Neville, Dean, Seamus, Hermione and Hannah to stay in a suite of rooms at Hogwarts.

Before they headed to the rooms, Harry asked if Ron and Hermione would go with him to visit his parents and Sirius's graves. Harry had a tombstone placed next to his father's for Sirius shortly after the war ended. This was not the first time they had visit the grave site together, the first time they had come with Ron was right after the final battle.

As they approached the graves they saw a couple standing there arms wrapped around each other.

"Should have known you three would come here tonight." They heard the soft voice of Remus.

"Needed to visit them after today." Harry said.

"You did very well today. They would have all been very proud." Remus told Harry.

"Thanks, I meant every word I said." Harry responded.

Remus turned and smiled at him gratefully. "I'm honored that you feel that way."

With a wave of her wand Hermione produced three bouquets of lilies and laid them on the graves.

"Thanks, Hermione." Harry said.

Hermione nodded then she, Ron and Tonks quietly slipped away to give Harry and Remus some privacy.

"Are you ready for tomorrow?" Remus asked.

"Were you ready the day before you married Tonks?" Harry asked.

"If it wasn't for Mad Eye and Kingsley, I'm not sure I would have made it there. Would have been the biggest mistake in my life." Remus said looking back to where Tonks stood quietly talking with Ron and Hermione.

Harry grinned at him. "What do you think they would have thought of Tonks?" Harry asked.

"Your mother would have loved her, because of the all encompassing way Dora loves me. Padfoot and Prongs would have had a hay day with our age difference, her pink hair, and that she was Sirius's cousin. They would have all adored my kids." Remus said.

"Would they have liked Ginny?" He asked.

"They would have loved her. Your mother and her may have butted heads, I think it's a red head thing, but she would have respected her. Sirius liked her very much." Remus assured him.

"I wish they were going to be there tomorrow." Harry said sound a bit like the young boy Remus had first met on the train to Hogwarts.

"They won't be there physically, but they will be there in your heart and mine. And I'm sure Dora could come up with some Sirius worthy advise for you." Remus said.

"I think I will pass on the advise from her. Kind of glad he never had to give me 'The Talk'" Harry said with a laugh.

"I wish I could have gotten out of it." Remus said remembering the day Molly made Arthur and Remus sit down and talk with Ron and Harry about the birds and bees.

"Just think of all the practice you have for Teddy, Alista and Sirius." Harry said.

"That sounds just like your dad." Remus groaned and Harry smiled at him. He was so grateful that he still had Remus around to share with him about his parents. He still wished his parents were around so that he could know them first hand, but Remus memories were better then nothing at all.

George walked wearily into to flat with Luna right behind him. It had been the longest day of his life hearing everyone reminisce about the battle five years ago and the lives that were lost. He missed Fred so much.

"Do you want some tea?" Luna asked.

"Sure." George said as he sank down on the old sofa.

He had not thought so much about Fred in a long time. When he first died, he couldn't stop thinking about him, now he could go a whole day without think of him.

Today he kept wondering what Fred would think of the life he was leading.

Would he be proud of the store? Yes, he would be. Though he might not admit it.

Would he be happy with how the family was doing? Yes, he would get a big kick out of Bill, Charlie and Percy as fathers. He would get a huge kick of Ron and Hermione actually married. And would love being able to take the mickey out of Harry tomorrow before he married their little sister. He would love seeing their mum unafraid and happy again, and dad tinkering with more muggle items.

Would he be happy with the way George was living his life? George looked over to where Luna was pouring the tea in mugs. No Fred would not be happy that George was afraid of to let anyone close to him. He would want him to let others in, to let love in, to not live in fear of losing the one you love most in this world. He would tell him that he was being an idiot where Luna was concerned.

He watched as Luna handed him the mug of tea then curled up on the opposite end of the couch from him. She was a sight, long flowing dress, no shoes, her hair falling out of the knot in the back of her head that her wand seemed to be holding in place. She stored her wand in the strangest of places. She was a beautiful sight.

"I figured you would go and stay with Ginny tonight considering how early mum wants you all there to get ready." George commented.

"With the memorial today and Ginny's wedding tomorrow, your mum is probably going to be a little high strung. I rather be here relaxing with you." Luna responded.

"A little high strung? Ya think?" George asked smiling. Truth be told he was glad he wasn't staying at the Burrows tonight as well. His mum was going to be ten times worse with Ginny's wedding then Bill's.

"Luna?" George asked setting his cup down on the coffee table.

"Yes, George?"

"I've been thinking today of what Fred would think about my life. I think it is time I stop messing around and looked toward some of the dreams I been having about the future. Would you be my date for the wedding tomorrow?" George asked. "As my girlfriend?" He added.

Luna looked at him unshed tears glistening her eyes. "Really, George?"

"Really." George responded and the next thing he knew Luna had hurdled toward him wrapping her arms around his neck and kissing him knocking him back so that she was laying on top of him.

When she broke away staring at him, he said, "I take that is a yes." She nodded smiling as he pulled her wand from her head, her hair falling around her face. Lacing his fingers through her hair he brought her lips back down to his.

It was one of the first many things he remembered from their New Years Eve night together a few years, he really liked kissing Luna Lovegood.
