Chapter. Out Of The Woods

* One Week Later *

Ginny Weasley Pov -

I sat on my front porch swing, with my feet resting on Neville's lap.

Over looking the yard, as James, Rose, Albus, Hugo, Lily, Cindy Diggory, and Scorpius Malfoy...LARP in the grass, with costumes from Parvati Patil sewing shop.

Next month, all children will officially be welcomed back to Hogwarts.

Harry, Tonks and Teddy are at the ministry, they've practically been there late evenings and early sunrises.

Four nights ago, Harry and I decided to sit the children down- to discuss our plans to separate while they are away in school. Not of them of course took it well, however we all agreed to constantly have chats on the matter whenever they like.

I made the decision, to keep the acknowledgement of my pregnancy between Harry, Neville and I. For the moment, i prefer to have the children deal with one crisis at a time. Besides, i not rather the entire wizarding world to happily whisper behind my back, or carry false tales of my ruined marriage. Assuming reasons on why Harry and I felt the need to part ways. Mainly saying things like 'He had her at his mercy for years.' Or 'She was obsessed with him for years.' Whichever, i honestly cannot care any less. It is our choice.

Its not just our abilities, that make us who we truly are. What we choose not to do, is just as much a part of who we are as what we choose to do. I, all on my own choose to be with Neville. He has always been great to me, and I could not have asked for a better mate or future father of my unborn child. I'm quite, curious on the gender of our baby. For the last week or so he has not mention any anxiety or obsession of the out come. In my mind i suppose he's trying his very best not to get his hopes up, in stress. With the past loss, of his wife and infant at birth, I can only imagine his worry of it all. However I am not going to push or obsess over it all myself. I will just try my best to relax and stay open to any conversation, he'll want to have, when the time is right.

"Hey?" Neville whispers to me.

"Hmm?" I look to him as he stares across the front yard to the children.

"Ron still in the dark on Rosie and Scorpius, huh?" He ask, and my head snapped up to follow his eyes.

We watch as Ron steps out of his car to see Scorpius Malfoy act as partner spymaster with James.

Rose drops her fake sword. After pretending to stick Cindy with it, who faked died.

I was quite sure that I did not like this LARPing- too much at the moment. I was so terrified to learn that James and Albus...were so close to losing their life. I knew the second me and the girls arrived at the ministry, moments without Harry and the boys; something awful had to have happened.

The second the kids saw Ron, moving towards them, they paused and stared at Rose.

"Hi, Dad." Rose say, reaching to grab, Scorpius Malfoy hand.

"No. No. Bloody-hell, Rosie." He say, putting his hand to his head. "I had to hear from Lorcan, that your... your..." Ron went speechless. "Dating...?"
I laughed to myself.

"Should we interfere?" Neville asked.

"Not at all." I say, looking from the porch, to my niece. On my lawn, she seemed nervous. "She's well enough at the age to start making her own decisions... she courageous enough to tell her father she's dating a Malfoy."

"Hello Mr. Weasley."

"Don't you, Hello Mr. Weasley, me. You little cockroach." Ron snap.

"Dad, please. Can you not." Rose says, embarrassed.

"No. Rosie. I don't like this. He's too old for you." Ron say, pointing his finger at Rose. "Your too young for friends... who...who are boys." Ron states, Neville shook his head as i laughed again.

"Excuse me, sir. Rose and I are actually eight months apart-"

"Don't you talk to me. I'm speaking to my daughter. Rosie, I forbid this. Tell him to get lost-"

"Dad, stop. It matters not how old Scorpius is, but who he have grown to be. And how our friendship has grown into something beautiful." Rose says.

"We are aware of your history with my family, most importantly, my father. But, I am not who my father was, Mr. Weasley. I am my own person. A person who dearly loves your daughter." Scorpius Malfoy say, and I smiled at that.

Neville chuckled. "I certainly, would not have the courage to say that as his age." He say, and i leaned over, giving him a quick kiss.

"You would have, there is no doubt about that, because you were one of the most bravest lads i known. Still are." I say.

"Love?" Ron burst with laughter, and no humor. "What do you know about, Love? Your a child."

"Mr. Weasley, I am dating your daughter. I have been her boyfriend for sometime now and quite frankly, we had enough of keeping it a secret. I love her. One day i seek to marry her, with or without your permission."

"I'm sorry.. You seek? No. No. Over my dead body. You will never touch my daughter, and quite frankly.. you do need my permission... Under her mother's or my rooftop, she legally cannot wed until we say so."

"Dad- "

"Silence. You will come home, and you will never see this loser again." Ron say, grabbing hold of Rosie's arm.

"No, dad." She tries to shove him away.

"That's it, i can't..." Neville stands to his feet.

"Wait." I say, grabbing hold of Neville's hand and he pause, to glance at me. "Just...give it..a second."

" I am in love with your daughter and I'll do anything for her. I will never harm her." Scorpius say, taking a step to Ron.

"Oh like you dear oh tosser of a father threatened her mum. Did he tell you that?" Ron snapped.

"Yes, I'm aware." Scorpius nod.

"Dad," Rose say, taking her arm from Ron. "We know what happen-"

"Then why? Why would you lie to me? Why would you do this?"

"Dad, we did not plan this. We swear of it. We love one and other, truly." Rose say.

"No. no. You are too young , you don't know what love is."

"You and mum were my age when you got together."

"Rosie, that was a mistake."

"What?" Rose say, confused.

"Look-

"Are you saying having me was a mistake?"

"That's not what i meant. I'm sorry, that came out wrong.. i was mistakenly dating too soon." Ron say.

What a complete lie.

"Come off it, Ron. He's your daughter's love. Be nice." I say.

"Right. we'll hate to have them run off and get married." Neville joke, trying to defuse the tension.

"Don't worry, I'll never do that, Dad. i swear." Rosie hugged him. "Besides, I hope this is something you can learn to live with."

Ron sighed. Shaking his head. "If i hear of one toe out of line, I'm seeking, Albus on him... and we all know how that could end." Ron says, pointing to Albus, who suddenly laugh, surprisingly sounding a lot more like himself.

"Come on, Al. Come, have a talk with your uncle." Ron say, and Albus ran to him.

Neville lowered, himself to his seat. "Seems, those two, we'll have to keep a close eye on, eh?"

I laughed. "Certainly, Hermione was able to get Albus to forget that last couple of months... but just in case he gets obsessive with magic... we'll help him." I say.

"You know, I'm truly, looking forward to... this." Neville say, snuggling closely. He smelt the sweetest..like peaches.

"Yes, me too." I smiled.

I cannot wait to see what happens next.

Like a puzzle all the pieces were in their proper place.

The children may have to get use to Harry and I, divorcing... but soon enough, a new baby can give them a smile.

Just then, Neville cell phone, buzzed.

I look as the kids continued to LARP as Neville chuckled to himself, reading his message.

"What's funny?" I smirk.

"Looks like Hogwarts once again will be getting a new Defense Against The Dark Arts teacher..." He say.

"Really? Who?" I ask.

"Draco Malfoy." Neville says and I laugh.

"Well, Good luck, Professor you'll see him more than i this year." I smirked. Neville last week agreed to Herbology teaching again, once classes start. It certainly gives me time to find our new home.

Rebecca Black Pov -

It has only been a week, since the murders responsible of causing so much death- got what they deserve.

I was surprised to hear, Henry, Embry, Jacob and Leah, witness Sarah -being cursed to saying an incorrect spell, which helped bring- Teddy Lupin's deceased mother back to life.

If I knew better, i would say... special abilities like such, would be a reason to try and annihilate someone's blood-heritage. It reminded me of how no one could explain why Bella Swan thoughts couldn't be read. Jared always joked that it was because nothing was there, if as she was some airhead. Yet, it's obvious, her father's bloodline are from half-human, half-vampires with ability as well. So to learn that my ancestor has not only werewolf-shapeshifting-abilities- but as well as witchcraft. It all very amusing to me.

Jacob spoke to the Cullen's the other day, they all are broken up about what has happened. To not suspect Renesmee could have went along with knowing who was killing people and not say a word, just only proves how desperate she was to have an end with Jacob.

"Sarah, can you please just try. I promise i won't tell." I hear Henry begging.

"Dude, like i said yesterday. I don't know how to. I can't just use magic on your mom, for her to wake. I don't want to make it worse. Now, can you quit bugging me and go call your imprint. ..I have to hurry, and get dress before Embry wakes up. We don't want to be late for Josh's band performance tonight." Sarah say, running up the stairs of what once was Elizabeth Clearwater mansion.

Very bazaar how Leah's distant cousin, who was trying to hurt her family, had no other known descendants. it's as if the chick had an Vendetta, against the world. The way i see it, abandon by her mother, -Leah told me, was enough to make a child mental.

It's so very strange how this all came to be.

In the huge living room sat Jacob, watching sports on TV, as everyone else was scattered around the mansion either resting or showering. A part of me was hoping Adam would show up to say how sorry he was that his little sister Camilla went psycho once again towards- my little brother and his family.

"Hey, baby bro." I say sitting beside him. Jacob's family has been through a lot in the pass two years.

Now; He finally seem as though the weight of the world wasn't on his shoulders. yet, in his eyes fought a silent dilemma.

"How are you feeling?" I ask him.

He sighed. "Honestly, like i can sleep."

"So why aren't you?"

He shrugged. "Because I can't sleep. Not here, this isn't home, Rebecca. As much as i know Sarah and Hazel want to stay, we can't."

"I understand completely, and i feel the same. The thing is... will Leah?" I ask, wondered.

"We haven't yet talked about it." He shrug, tiredly.

"Can i ask you a question?"

"As long as you follow me to the kitchen while talking. I'm starving." He says, standing up.

Two days, after the death of Elizabeth and her friends, we all stayed at Harry's place to make sure it was all over.

Yesterday, we had received noticed that Leah and her mother Sue just inherited this mansion. I talked to Sue, who plan on flying over with Charlie as soon as they can.

We all went shopping for groceries and clothes and bedding to sleep on, five days ago. Jacob didn't want to buy too much, so Harry Potter and his friends decided to come use magic to redesign and renovate this place.

"What if they want to stay here? Leah... Sarah... Hazel... Henry...What would you do?"

Jacob paused at the huge refrigerator. "I honestly don't know, Becks. Josh has already decided here is where he wants to be. Guess I'll give it time."

I can't imagine him and I going home to La'push, while Leah, Embry and the kids stay here so that the kids can attend that magic school.

I sighed, "Well, I should go check on Taylor."

"Caleb's with her." Jacob says. "I'm sure, if we was to go... he come at least."

"I know, i hear he hasn't been having such an easy time being around Sarah and Josh." He's been a bit bitter towards them lately, more Sarah then Josh because he's barely around.

"Yeah. There's a lot of jealousy. He just needs to find what works for him and get out of everyone else's shadow." Jacob say and i nod, in agreement.

"I agree." i mumbled, walking towards the grand, staircase and Ii hear footsteps coming down.

I turn to see, Caleb.

"Hey, kid. How are you feeling?" i ask.

"Fine. Have you seen my dad?" He ask, obviously still full of sleep.

"Yeah, he's in the kitchen." I stated.

"Alone?" He ask, passing me as i went up the stairs.

"Yeah, probably making himself a sandwich." I say and Caleb quickly disappeared into the kitchen, not saying another word.

As i reached the top steps, i can hear low indie-rock-music playing on a radio.

"Mom," i paused at the sound of Sarah's voice.

"Hmm?" Leah answered.

I peeked into the large room to Leah going through clothes with Sarah.

"Have you ever had thoughts about Embry?" Sarah asked.

"Not this again. What do you this time mean?" Leah said places a pair of jeans, a turtleneck, and light brown leather jacket on the bed.

"You know."

"If i did i wouldn't have asked." Leah say.

"Have You ever had feelings for him or have he ever -"

"God no, Sarah. Ew." She said grabbing Sarah's black and pink converse sneakers and putting them on the floor near her bed.

"Embry is one of my br-"

Leah stopped mid-sentence I assuming thinking about how things use to be with Jacob, Embry, Quil, Jared and Paul. Back in the old Wolf Pack days.

Sarah look down, feeling instantly regretful bringing up the subject. "I'm sorry." Sarah say fast, realizing her question could trigger something- emotionally leading to the fact that Seth is gone.

Leah took a deep breath. "Sam and Jacob are the only man I've ever been with… no one else." She said fast moving towards the door. "I'll go see if Henry is out the shower." She said coming in my direction.

"Hey, Becks." She said getting ready to pass me to the staircase.

"Hey," i say back.

"Are you going to Josh's show?" She ask.

I shook my head."No, no. I'm staying here with Taylor."

"No need. Jacob, Daniel, Caleb, Hazel and Henry are staying in so Taylor, won't be alone."

"Oh." I say, not really in the mood to get dress.

"Come on, it'll be fun to get some fresh air. We're leaving in thirty minutes." Leah say, and i sighed.

* Thirty Minutes Later *

I slowly followed behind Leah, Embry and Sarah. The strangers ahead all giggled and laugh happily, in celebration that the murders were stopped.

If i was lucky, Adam will come out of no where and tell he forgives me for breaking his heart, years ago. I just keep re-playing that last encounter in Jacob's home, before we all came here... because for a moment i believed, Adam was truly happy.

"Rebecca, watch it." Embry say, starling me and i lost my balance, stumbling into the person behind me.

I twist, Falling over, hitting the ground.

"Ouch." My butt cheek will be sore in the morning.

"Oh God, ma'am, i am extremely sorry." i hear a strangers voice.

Not looking at him, in my embarrassment. I nervously laugh. "No, I lost my balance. My fault for not bracing for impact, huh."

He grabbed my waist and placed my arm around his shoulder, "Are you alright?" He ask, pausing longingly staring deep into my eyes.

His brown eyes and brown skin, surge of warmth that I never known.

I froze as he made no attempt to continue to leave me off the ground. it was charming.

He smells of orange oil and lumber.

What a man, and that accent. Was all I could think.

How was it that i spend weeks with our new British friends, but never been so attracted to an English accent until now?

"Are you in any pain? Do you need medical assistance?" He say, betraying a hint of impatience of my awkwardness.

I laugh. "Hardy."

Suddenly Leah, Embry and Sarah was no where to be found.

"Hey, I see you met our new American Pure-Blood." George Weasley joke, standing alongside a round-faced, blonde haired guy. - He reminded me of Adam.

"My apologies, ma'am.." He finally eases my feet back to the ground. "Dean Thomas."

I clung to him. "Dean?" i say.

"Yes, good acquaintance of Harry Potter. Your sister stayed at my home."

Harry Potter i know, but my sister... George laughed. "No, mate, her twin sister is still in America."

"Oh." He said to George and I glanced over at the blonde haired guy, who clung to a lady with red hair. Very protectively.

Then i thought... Dean Thomas... Leah was staying with him. Henry talked about his imprint and her friend Delena.

"Ohh right. Your Delena's father. Leah is my sister-in-law. so yeah, i guess you can say.. sister." I say, remembering Henry mentioning his daughter was quiet, but snored loudly.

"Correct." Dean says, with a smile.

"Well I am Rebecca Black, Sarah's aunt and God-mother you can say."

"Black? Also as in Sirius Black.."

"Yes, we seem to have relations i hear." i shrug.

"Oh. Brilliant."

"It very much is." I say. Mainly, meeting Dean and to have him be so gorgeous and strong.

His British accent is a bonus.

"Your bleeding, must have scraped your arm on the ground." He say, of my palm. I waved my hand.

"oh, it's fine." I say shrugging off the small pain.

"Are you sure?" He wiped the blood off with his palm, holding my hand.

"Like the wolves... my bones are tough." I say.

He laugh, with a huge smile. "Mighty strong you are. May i walk you in?" He ask.

"Yes. Of course. Thank you."

As we walk towards the pub it was a bit crowded but the place was decorated with floating candles, and glittered with a very welcoming glow.

It was so wonderful, to feel that for once in my life -I'm actually happy to be out of the woods.
