April 21, 1996

The Waterfall, Britain

Harry shifted. A groan escaped his lips as his body felt sore and stiff. His eyes didn't even really open when a small hand took his.

Blinking, he tried to focus. "'una..." His voice sounded so weak.

A hand brushed his face. "Now is not the time for you to speak, my love. Astoria is safe, as is Calla and your mother. You should sleep some more, our Raven."

"Sleep my child and peace attend thee,
All through the night
Golden birds of Merlin will send thee,
All through the night
Soft the drowsy hours are creeping..."

Luna's soft voice was soothing, and he soon fell asleep to her soft lullaby.

When Harry next remembered waking, there were soft voices nearby. He couldn't really make them out, but it was darker - and a guttering light, like from a single candle, lit the room.

He was able to blink a few times. Shifting a little, he made out a large comfortable chair with a slight blonde girl on it. Her golden hair was half over her face. She had her hands beneath her head and was curled up in the chair.

"They should both be up by morning. Lily, you should be in bed as well. All three of you just about damaged your core," he heard Healer Tonks say.

"Andi, I have been out of it for the better part of four days. Kindly let me see my son now, or I swear I'll…," his mum threatened.

He shifted. "Mum?"

Luna shifted and mumbled something. "Keep your voice down," Healer Tonks whispered as a few people made it to his bed. "Luna has hardly slept, and she needs her rest."

His mum sat on the edge of his bed and he sat up, happy to have her arms wrap around him. It didn't matter he was almost fifteen. She was here, alive and on his bed. "Calla?"

"With Remus. She is doing much better. Thanks to you and your girls," his mum answered.

He held her as tight as she held him.

"Luna, come here," his mum said.

She crawled onto the bed and Luna wrapped her arms around him from the back. He stuttered. "Mum, he wanted to possess me. He... he wanted..."

"Shhhh, Harry. It's over. Voldemort will never bother you again," his mum told him.

"He was going to make me do things," he said.

Luna kissed his neck. "I don't see the Shadow anymore."

His body shook with the emotions in him. He pulled back to pull Luna into his arms. "Where is Astoria? I can't see."

His mum shifted and held his glasses for him. "She is in the next bed. We took you back to the Waterfall. There are still Death Eaters and others out there who are being hunted or turning themselves in."

He yawned.

His mum rubbed his back for a moment. "It's still really late. You should get some more rest. Luna needs to sleep too."

"I am sleeping next to Harry," Luna left no room for argument.

"Now he has woken, I will allow it. Lily, will you go lay back down now? Both of you are still low on your magic with how much healing your body is doing," Healer Tonks was trying to push his mum into doing what he wanted his mum to do.

"Yes, Andi," his mum said rolling her eyes. "You two rest."

Luna pushed him back down and crawled under the blankets, putting her head on his chest. When his mum kissed their heads, Luna started to sing a lullaby. Harry felt his eyes close as he drifted off.

April 23, 1996

The Waterfall, England

Luna sat in the chair between Astoria and Harry. They were both much better looking, but both had run their magic to the point of almost breaking their cores. After almost six days their magic had finally healed their bodies and cores and was slowly rebuilding now.

As they took an afternoon nap, she just stared at the wall of the tent.

Her visions had slowed. Each day, more people could walk in and out without setting her off. The war was ending. There were still a few hold-out pockets or those on the run, but Lily had confirmed that all of Voldemort's inner circle was dead or captured.

The remains of the giant snake had been found in the underground warren that Voldemort was using. The Horcrux had been such an integral part of the creature that it died when the Horcrux died.

As she thought about it, Astoria shifted and mumbled something in her sleep. Luna smiled at her beautiful girl. Reaching, she moved the hair out of Astoria's face. As she did so, she thought about the last prophecy she had made during the ritual.

'THE POWER OF THREE APPROACHES THE FIGHT... THREE WARRIORS TO END THE STRIFE... THE BLOOD OF THY ENEMY... THE BLOOD OF THY KIN... THE BLOOD MARRIED OF THE LANCE OF LIGHT... WHEN THREE COLLIDE WITH ENEMY OF THE THREE, ONE SHALL FALL WHILE THE LIGHT ARISES...'

Luna had fought off the Fates for days to take care of Astoria and Calla. Once on the table, she couldn't fight it anymore. According to Astoria, when she had finally let herself go to the Fates, that was when everything went wrong for Voldemort.

Now, with the Fates settling, she was starting to feel more like herself than she had in a long time. As though sensing that, Eira came in. "Did you have a good hunt?" Luna asked her kneazle.

It gave a soft 'meow' before jumping into her lap. Luna petted her familiar, who started to purr loudly in her lap, the vibrations running through her body.

It was a little bit later when the curtains opened. Neville and Hermione came in. She gave them a smile. There were no black tendrils anywhere now. "Are they still sleeping?" Hermione whispered, pulling up a small canvas stool and sitting next to the large chair that Healer Tonks had made for her.

Neville stood behind Hermione. "You can sit too," Luna offered.

Neville held up a hand. "I've been in bed too much lately. Once Harry gets done being lazy, I want to finally beat him on our runs."

"In your dreams," Harry responded groggily.

Her cousin chuckled. "I have to have something to look forward to."

Harry rubbed his eyes as Astoria shifted. "Luna, do you have my glasses?"

She reached for the table next to her and handed Harry his glasses as he sat up.

"How are you feeling?" Hermione asked, a little concern in her voice.

When Harry had been brought in he was red all over his body, as though he had been burned. He looked like he had been through a war. There were still some bruises on his neck and arms. Places his magic just hadn't healed yet.

Opening and closing his hands, he replied, "Still sore. Healer Tonks said it still might be a few weeks for me to fully recover."

"How about Astoria?"

"It might be faster if I can sleep," Astoria snarked, burying her face into her pillow.

"We didn't mean to wake you," Hermione apologized.

"It was time for them to get up anyway. They have some more potions to take soon," Luna informed her friends.

Astoria groaned. "Those things are nasty," her muffled voice came to them.

Harry cringed too. "Any more word?"

"The Carrows were arrested yesterday. McNair was killed when he tried to escape capture. Four other Death Eaters were killed in a raid yesterday. Minister Greengrass thinks that almost everyone they will find right now is rounded up. There are rumours that some escaped to France or Spain, but everyone known to be in the inner circle is now accounted for," Neville answered.

Harry let out a breath and then moved to get out of the bed.

"Where are you going?" Hermione questioned.

"I am allowed to use the loo," Harry remarked.

Luna watched him get up. He was steadier on his feet than he had been yesterday, but still not the Harry she knew. "You are coming right back," she told him.

He sighed, knowing the order from Healer Tonks. "Yes, Moonbeam."

When he walked out, Astoria rolled over and sat up. "How are you two?"

"Healer Tonks was finally able to get the last of the dark magic out of the cut I got," Hermione told them. None of them had escaped unscathed.

Neville put a hand on Hermione. "The soul shard is gone. I was able to start our workouts again today. Healer Tonks said we can go back anytime now."

"Are you?" Astoria asked.

"We have our OWL's in just over six weeks. We have to," Hermione replied.

Luna nodded. "Harry has already decided we will not go back until the week the OWL's start."

Astoria nodded. "What about Lily, Remus and Calla?"

"They already went back. Lily and Remus need to finish their classes for the year," Luna answered.

"What about Willow? Has she been buried yet?" Hermione put to Luna.

Luna and Astoria had long faces. "Lily and Remus said they would take us to her grave at Potter Cottage once we are all better," Astoria replied this time.

"Hermione, are you sure you want to go back to Hogwarts? Headmistress McGonagall has given us all a pass to recover for as long as we need," Neville put to Hermione.

Hermione let out a long breath and leaned back into Neville. "I don't want to hide, Neville."

"Is it hiding when you know you will go out again? Sometimes you need the isolation to heal," Luna told Hermione.

"I don't want to hide," Hermione repeated.

Astoria reached over for Hermione's hand. "It is not weakness to take a step back at times. We all know you will get back out there and do what is needed."

Neville looked down at his betrothed. "Hermione, you know I will do whatever you want in this. Over the summer we are talking about whether we go back or not. Minister Greengrass thinks he finally has enough votes to overturn some of the Blood laws."

Harry came back in and Luna watched him. He did some stretching. The wince he gave told her he was still not doing well. Harry had been left out in the elements for days. Some nasty potions kept him from getting sick or dying from the exposure. Then the effects of the failed ritual and his fight had almost broken his body. She had a feeling it was still a few weeks for him to be back to full health.

"Harry, don't push yourself. Sit in that bed," Astoria ordered.

"I don't want to be in the bed anymore," Harry whinged.

"Our Raven, you need the rest," she told him.

With a huff, he got back into bed. As he did, his body slumped. Even that little exertion was a lot for him. They all saw it. She picked up Eira and move to the bed. She pulled on his shoulders. He resisted just a little bit before he lay on his side, his head in Luna's lap and Eira at her knees, curling up into his chest.

"Astoria, you can join too," Luna told her. Astoria would be released from bed probably tomorrow. With her arm healed, her shoulder back in its socket and recovering her magic faster than Harry, she would be better in a few days.

Astoria moved to the bed, settling against the backboard. Luna leaned into her.

"Maybe we should let you three be," Hermione put to them.

Harry's eyes were already drifting closed. "You can stay. What else is there?" Astoria asked, wrapping an arm around Luna's shoulder. Neville sat on the edge of Astoria's bed.

"The last two that survived the attack on the Burrow are expected to be moving on their own again this week," Neville told them.

Luna frowned. Four Aurors and three circle members died trying to protect them. Four were found still alive when the team saving Ginny got back. She had tried to say sorry about Tonks to her mother, but Healer Tonks just said her daughter died doing what she did best. There was a great sadness there, but she was doing her job to take care of her patients too.

"Have we missed the funerals?" Astoria asked.

"We all did. Mrs. Lupin-Potter said there will be a memorial for everyone once everyone else is healthy enough. Maybe over the summer," Hermione replied.

Harry yawned, his eyes fighting to stay open. Luna brushed his hair. "Just sleep, our Raven."

They all talked for a little bit more, Harry falling asleep before Neville and Hermione said their goodbyes.

Astoria pulled her in closer and Luna continued to brush her hand through Harry's hair. Eira had stopped purring, having fallen asleep herself.

"Luna, Harry will be alright, right?"

She shifted to peck Astoria. "Harry will be alright. He just needs some time."

"Is it really over?" A shiver ran through Astoria.

"The Shadow will not hurt anyone else. The visions are not as great. Will you and Harry look for floogalsnouts with me this summer?" She had originally just wanted to go with daddy, but she would not be separated from her Aster and Raven right now.

Astoria smiled and kissed her forehead. "Sounds like fun," Astoria replied.

"It means we will have to live in tents and be out in nature for a while," Luna added.

"Maybe I don't have to be so afraid of being dirty," her Aster told her.

Luna smiled before giving Astoria a longer kiss and then settling back onto Astoria's shoulder.

"I love you," Luna said, speaking to both of them.

"I love you too, moonbeam," Astoria replied.

July 1, 1996

Godric's Hollow, England

Harry approached his father's grave. Next to it was a smaller plaque for Willow. Now that things were settling down and most believed that anyone supporting Voldemort was captured, killed or had fled the country, Harry was allowed to actually wander without a guard.

A dog sat at the gates of the cemetery. Sirius, Remus, and his mother still felt a little nervous so one of them usually shadowed him. There were a lot of 'fans' out there who didn't mean him harm, but might do so in their exuberance. The important thing was that it felt like freedom compared to the last few years.

Astoria and Luna offered to come with him, but Harry wanted to do this on his own.

Kneeling in the wet grass, storm clouds still overhead threatening more rain for the day, Harry put down a medal with two wands crossed, being held by a griffin, in the center of the medal. Around the edge was 'Order of Merlin, First Class. Harry James Potter.'

A few of them had earned an Order of Merlin the night Voldemort was killed. Astoria, Neville and his mum had all been presented First Class Orders. Most of the other fighters had received Second Class Orders.

"Hey, dad," Harry started.

There was no answer except a breeze flowing through some trees and knocking water off the leaves.

"Sorry it's been a while. Mum hasn't really let me out since Sirius escaped Azkaban. I turned thirteen that summer. I turn fifteen in a few weeks. Can you believe it? Uncle Remus and mum say they can't," he told the gravestone.

"There is so much that has happened." He spent a while going through the tournament and this past year. When he was done telling his dad about what happened with Voldemort, he fell silent.

A few heavy drops fell from the sky. Harry just looked down at the medal that was before the gravestone.

"I don't deserve it, dad. So many died trying to protect me and those around me, including you. You do deserve this. You saved so many people when you were an Auror. I was only able to help the few around me." Harry wiped a tear from his face. He had not been able to protect his girls from that night. Astoria was still waking with nightmares at times. Voldemort had almost used his own body to rape them, needing children to carry on his power and restore his soul.

The insane Wanker had told Harry many things while the rune circles were being constructed. The man wanted to make his soul whole once again, then repeat the process of making more Horcruxes. They had stopped him, but Harry still felt guilty. Fifteen people lost their lives between the Burrow and the raid that brought Voldemort down.

They all died protecting his family and friends.

Healer Tonks called it 'survivors guilt'.

He took a few calming breaths before going on. "So, Luna and Astoria. On my birthday I am going to be betrothed to them. Luna will be Lady Potter and Astoria will be Lady Greengrass. Uncle Sirius keeps joking I am the luckiest man alive to have two such beautiful girls that will sleep with me every night. I guess he is right. I just know I love them, dad. I know we are young. We have agreed to wait until we are all seventeen to get married. I don't think Luna can wait that long for our wedding night though," he chuckled, trying to fight away the other shadows. He had been told it was alright to laugh and enjoy himself.

"I'm not sure I am supposed to talk about this. But my sister Calla, she is going to be just like you and your friends, I think. She is running everywhere and getting into everything. Last night she got her hands on a picture Luna was drawing and it was in tatters soon after. She had a large grin. She calls me 'Arry. I know she isn't your daughter, but she is my sister, dad."

The water droplets were becoming more frequent. He heard the man walk up behind him. "James would never hold it against you Harry for loving Calla. He would have wanted Lily to move on and Remus is a good man," his Uncle Sirius said behind him. In the last few months the man had started to really feel like family as they spent more time together. "All he ever wanted was for Lily to be happy. He would have been happy if he had known you."

Harry nodded. "I just wish I had known him, Uncle Sirius."

"I get it, pup. You ready to head back? I think it's going to rain again soon."

Harry let out a long breath and reached over to Willow's grave. "They both died fighting for us. So many died."

The man knelt down and put a hand on his shoulder. "Unfortunately, that is the way of war. People stand up for what they believe and sometimes you die protecting those beliefs, other times you get lucky and survive. James would not want you to dwell on it."

"How do you deal with it?" Harry asked.

"One day at a time."

After a moment, Harry nodded and got up.

"You going to leave that there?" Uncle Sirius asked.

Harry looked down at the medal. "I think he deserves it more," said Harry simply.

After a moment, the older man nodded and turned back into a dog as they started to walk back. Harry didn't hurry and the rain just kept seeping down in big droplets now and again. When they made it to the front door, Sirius shook out his fur. "Ah! Yuck! You mangy old mongrel," Harry yelled.

Sirius bolted through the door, just dodging Harry's stinging hex. He was greeted by the happy squeals of his sister as she played with her toys and Luna. Luna was in jeans and a crop top today. Astoria was sitting in a chair reading in a nice skirt and long sleeve blouse. It was cool out, but nice in the house.

"You better go upstairs and change and dry off before you... oh! MERLIN! SIRIUS!," Astoria bellowed as Sirius jumped into the chair, shook more water off and then bounded away. Astoria let out a yell of anger and Sirius yiped as her stinging hex got him.

"Now I am going to smell like wet dog!"

Harry laughed. "Could be worse."

Astoria's finger came up and pointed at him. "Don't you even dare, Harry Potter!"

He moved in to hug her and she scrunched her brow before hugging him, realizing they both smelt like wet dog now. "Luna, you want to play in the mud?"

Astoria's eyes went wide. "Harry!"

"Portal ad field," he said quickly and Astoria screamed, trying to struggle out of his arms as he pulled her into the black hole. They landed in the wet grass and mud. His dark-haired girl fell on top of him.

"Get me back inside," she screamed at him. It was raining now, and they were fast getting wet.

"You're a mage, you do it," he teased. She glared at him as Luna followed them before the portal closed. They were in the fields between Potter Cottage and Abbot Hall.

Luna held her arms up and twirled. Her smile was wide across her face. "I like the rain."

Astoria let out another scream of frustration before putting her head on his shoulder. "You're a huge prat."

"You don't smell like a dog anymore," Harry complimented her.

She chuckled. "Prat."

Harry chuckled, watching Luna twirl around them. The water was causing her shirt to cling to her and become semi-see through, showing she had elected not to wear a bra today. He felt himself stir and a moment later Astoria shifted and felt her crotch move against his.

Luna landed next to them, pecking him on the cheek. Astoria shivered above him. "Getting cold?"

"Yes," Astoria answered.

"You ready to go back, Luna?"

"A warm shower would be nice," she replied.

"You're talking with mum later," Harry told her. Luna smirked.

He portalled them to the back step. It was pouring down now and they walked into the back door, dripping water everywhere. "You better not drag water all over the house. I've already yelled at Sirius," his mum said from the stove. She looked at them for a second. "Next time let me know someone is going too. Calla shouldn't be left like that. Luna, you may want to cover your top if you don't want others noticing."

"Yes, mum," he said.

"There is no shame in our bodies," Luna replied, eliciting a shake of his mum's head.

Astoria moved her hand over her and then Luna, drying their clothes. She was still shivering. Luna's lips looked slightly off color. Maybe dragging them both outside was not the best idea. He dried himself and then Luna grabbed both their hands. "Shower," she told them.

"You know the rules," his mum yelled after them. Uncle Remus and Sirius were with Calla in the sitting room as Luna pulled them toward the stairs.

"Luna," Astoria chastised as they were pulled into the bathroom.

"Lily only said she didn't want to see or hear us," Luna told them.

Harry chuckled and waved his hand. "Confuto."

Luna kissed Astoria and then him before pulling her crop top off. Harry loved his girls. He got the shower going as they undressed, and Astoria pulled Luna in, sighing as the hot water hit her skin.

Harry was enjoying the scene before Luna pulled the curtain to keep the water from splashing all over the room. "If you want to watch you need to join," Luna told him.

With a grin, he joined them. Astoria was just standing under the water, her face up. Luna took his hand, went on her tip toes and wrapped her arms around his neck. He liked how her tongue found his and the feel of her skin. The fact they could do this hit him hard. He had almost lost them a little over two months ago. In that time, they hadn't been quite overt in their affections. Harry had spent almost a month to recover. Astoria had been a little distant. For the first time, this felt more like them.

Astoria moved over and Luna took one arm off him and wrapped it around Astoria as she put her head against both theirs. "Would you wash me up? I would like to sleep at my parents tonight."

"Can we sleep at daddy's this week?"

"Sure. I'll be wherever you two are," Harry told them.

As they washed, things got a little heated. Harry liked how they both clung to him as he had both hands busy between their legs. Luna had her own hand busy with him.

By the time they made it downstairs with their night bags, dinner was on the table. Uncle Remus watched as they put their bags against the wall. "Where are you three going tonight?"

"Home," Astoria told him. "I want to spend a few days there, and then we were going to the Rookery."

The fact they could just go where they wanted was so different.

"That's fine. I still don't want you going out without someone," his mum informed them.

"We know, mum," Harry replied rolling his eyes.

"Your Hogwarts letters arrived this afternoon," his mum said casually, ignoring his antics.

Harry made a face as his sister reached for him. "You should stay in your own chair tonight," he told her, ignoring his mum.

"'Arry," she begged.

With a sigh, he took the tray off and she climbed out into his arms. His mum looked amused. "You can't say no to any of them, can you?"

Harry shrugged. "Why should I?"

The adults all chuckled, and Luna kissed his cheek. "Good boy."

He stuck his tongue out at her and the adults laughed this time.

When they flooed over to Greencross, Lady Greengrass met them as they made their way towards Astoria's room. Harry would respect Lady Greengrass and sleep across the hall, but it didn't mean the girls would do the same.

"Mother," Astoria said happily, hugging her mother.

"Did you have a nice couple of days?"

"Besides my escort being a prat, it was wonderful," she replied.

Lady Greengrass raised an eye at him. "She didn't want to smell like a dog, so I just made sure she got a wash."

Luna giggled. "I like how she smells no matter what. You have a new aura," Luna said, cocking her head and looking at Lady Greengrass.

The woman looked confused for a moment. Harry looked at her, knowing the last time she had seen something like this. Astoria looked at Luna wide-eyed and then her mum.

"Why is that?" Lady Greengrass asked.

"You have a pleasant aura, like your daughters'. It is a nice pinkish-purple. Now there is a green hue. When are you expecting?" Luna asked.

The woman's eyes widened. Astoria turned to her mother. "Mother?"

Lady Greengrass looked totally shocked. A hand went to her midsection. "Luna, that is not funny if it is a joke."

Astoria looked confused. "Mother, Luna never jokes about something like that."

Her other hand went to her mouth. "The Healers said I couldn't have any more children."

"I think it will be a boy," Luna told her.

"Merlin…," Lady Greengrass muttered in total shock.

An elf came up to them. "Mistress, Master has said he will be home in about fifteen minutes."

Harry looked at his watch and realized it was after eight o'clock.

"Thank you, Tibbles," Lady Greengrass replied. "Ensure his dinner is ready in the family dining room. Also, can you send a message to Healer Tonks and let her know I would like an appointment tomorrow?"

Tibbles nodded. "Yes, Mistress."

The elf snapped and was gone.

"Are you alright?" Astoria asked her mother.

The woman still looked shocked, but had a smile coming to her face. "Very, actually. Would you like to join us? I am sure we have some cake or ice cream or something."

"It would be our pleasure, Lady Greengrass," Harry replied.

"Harry, it's Illiana. I have told you this."

He nodded.

Later that night, the door to his room opened and two figures came in. He had been up, unable to sleep. The very tired-looking Anders had been just as shocked as his wife to get the news from Luna. It had made him pensive, and like usual, he started to think dark thoughts when he was pensive like this. The shadows of what had happened were still long.

There was a very low-level light in the room from a low burning lamp in a far corner. He found it hard to sleep when it was totally black in a room. He needed to see what was around him if he woke.

Astoria had her hair back in a loose plait. She was in a silky looking short night dress that clearly showed the outline of her chest and nipples. Luna was in a loose jersey and some short shorts.

He pulled the cover aside. Astoria crawled into his left and Luna his right, both girls pecking his lips before settling their heads on his chest. They were all quiet for a little bit before Astoria spoke up.

"If mother really is pregnant with a son, I don't need a line continuance," she told them.

"The colours do not say girl to me," Luna pipped up.

"I can have two Lady Potters," Harry told them. "I technically have two lines. Sirius has made me his heir and the Potters can absorb the line of the Blacks. I would not like you to be a second wife, our Aster."

Astoria moved and propped herself up. Harry tried not to catch how the nightdress collar dipped low and he could look right down it before catching her eyes. The expression on her face was surprised. "You would want that?"

Luna reached over and cupped one of Astoria's cheeks. "Harry never wanted either of us to be unequal to the other. This way we now have two Potter lines."

Astoria looked towards Luna. After a moment, she said in a small voice. "Luna, your children should be in line first. Don't argue with me on this."

Harry shook his head. "Astoria, with two lines, they both inherit the Potter blood and now I will have two seats. I would split anything we have equally among any children we have."

"Does Lord Black approve this?," she enquired.

"He suggested it, and Andromeda Tonks has agreed. Neither of them want their surname causing any more issues," Harry told her. It was a conversation he had had with his mum and Uncle Sirius a few weeks ago as they all talked about the betrothal contracts.

Her hazel eyes drifted back to his. There was an intense look that had his heart start to beat a little faster. "How would you two like to call Greencross home? Mother and father would be happy to open the North wing. There are rooms and suites enough for a large family."

"Can we still make a farm or sanctuary at the Rookery?" Luna requested.

"What are Daphne and Victor thinking?"

"Daphne said they want to claim her rooms. There are still two open bedrooms on this wing, not counting mine or this guest room. Victor doesn't want to compete with his brothers and being here allows him to be who he wants to be," Astoria replied.

"It would also allow your house to be filled with people again," Harry stated. He knew how much Astoria wanted this house to be filled with her family again.

She bit her lip. "I really want that."

Smiling, he shifted to lean up enough to kiss her when she lowered her lips to his.

"Potter cottage is too small for us, and it is going to get more so," Luna told him.

Astoria looked towards Luna. "Is Lily expecting again?"

Luna smirked. "I think she will be soon. I see a little redhead that looks much like Lily."

"Merlin! Two sisters," Harry muttered.

"I want two or three," Astoria told him.

He looked at her. "Now?" he managed to squeak.

Astoria laughed. "Merlin! No. I want to get our NEWTS first and be married."

"I will have as many as fate gives us," Luna told him.

Harry swallowed. "And how many is that?"

"I don't know. I can't see the future when it directly involves me like that," she reminded them. "I can see lots of children in this house. At least eight in the next decade."

"All mine?" he asked. What was he going to do with eight children!

"Of course not," she told him as though he was being silly. "There will be Astoria's brother. Daphne will have at least two."

He let out a sigh. Five was more reasonable...

Astoria moved and met his lips again. "I don't want any children in the near future." She pulled back and gave him that sultry look that always got him excited. Her face took on a little colour. "I don't want to wait to have you as my own either."

"I am not waiting," Luna told them. "Harry becomes our betrothed on his birthday. I am claiming him that night."

Astoria burned a little brighter. "I wasn't thinking of waiting that long. I almost lost both of you. I don't want to risk that again."

Luna got up on an arm now, leaning over to give him a kiss. "Would you claim us as yours now?"

His face was flush. "Are you sure?"

Astoria kissed him again. "I am yours, my Lord. Let me make you mine, as well."

"I am not in control of you like that," Harry replied.

Luna kissed his cheek before moving down his jaw to his ear. "Please make love to us, our Raven," she whispered before nibbling on his ear. A pleasant chill went through him. "We are already yours."

He looked at Astoria, who sat up and put her hands on the hem of her night dress. "I don't want to wait anymore. I don't want the chance of losing you."

He watched as she pulled her night dress off, loving how the dim light made long shadows across the bed from her large chest and slim form. Astoria was beautiful. Luna kept nibbling on his ear as her hand slipped over his stomach and into his shorts. "I want to watch and then have you take me."

"Merlin," Harry muttered. He was already hard and having Luna stroke him made him even more so.

Astoria moved down, meeting his lips and having her chest on his. She started a deep, passionate kiss as Luna moved down and started to kiss and suck on his neck. Astoria deepened the kiss into a desperate snog as Luna moved to take off his shorts. His hands roamed over Astoria, and he sucked in a breath when she moved on top of him and put her crotch on his. He felt her folds through her knickers, and they both moaned.

Luna moved back up Astoria this time, kissing and fondling until Astoria took her face off his and gave Luna as good as she was giving to him. His dick grew even harder to see them snogging like that with her on him. He bucked his hips some, getting a deep moan from Astoria before she started to rub herself up and down his shaft. They had not done anything like this yet, mostly to keep their promise to wait until they were betrothed.

The motion got a deep groan of need and pleasure from him as Astoria ground herself onto him. After a moment, he was letting the hormones take over. He ran a finger over her knickers and they vanished. The gasp of surprise and the deep moan from her when Luna started to kiss down her neck had Harry so excited, he wasn't sure how he didn't make a mess.

Putting his hands on her hips, he rolled her over. When she was below him, he found himself closing his eyes at the sensation of having the head of his cock just inside her slick folds. A pleasant shudder went through his body.

"Are you sure?" he asked her.

She put her hands on his hips, opened her legs wider and pulled him in. "Harry, I love you and want to make love to you."

He grunted as he slipped into her, letting her pull him in at her own pace. It took a little time for the slight bit of pain to leave her face. He was being as gentle as possible. Luna kissed them both. After a few minutes, they found a rhythm they both seemed to like. He was getting close when Luna put a hand between them and Astoria gasped with the smaller hand on her as he reached his climax inside her.

Astoria shuddered as he did so, crying out with a look of ecstasy on her face. She calmed a little bit after he was done and he pulled out. "Oh, Merlin," she muttered, just lying there.

"You should enjoy your first time," Luna told their Aster.

Luna moved to him. He was surprised that he was still stiff and as hot for Luna as he had been for Astoria. For months now they had all read Luna's grandmother's journals, so none of this was a big surprise. When Luna started to kiss him, he responded. She didn't care that he was a little sweaty.

Luna gently pushed him down onto the bed and sat on his lap, her naked body on top and her folds sliding up and down his shaft as they kissed. When she pulled up a bit, he moved to kiss her chest. She let out some deep moans and sounds that soon had him as hard as he had been to enter Astoria.

He was about to roll over when she reached a hand down and moved him so he was inside her. "I want to control it the first time," she told him, slowly lowering herself onto him. As she did, Astoria got up and moved behind Luna.

"You are so beautiful," she said softly to Luna before wrapping her arms around their blonde and her hands moving to Luna's chest. Harry had never before heard the type of groan Luna let out, but it had such a need to it he felt himself grow even larger inside Luna.

"I love you," Luna said before she started to move.

Where Astoria and he had found a more rapid pace, Luna took her time, moving her head to kiss Astoria. It was teasingly slow to have Luna pull herself almost all the way off and then slowly impale herself again.

They were both moaning when Luna's orgasm hit first. It made her so tight he lost himself and had his own. When they were done, Luna leaned back into Astoria, still keeping him in her.

"That was the hottest thing I've ever seen," Astoria said to them.

Luna lazily gave her a kiss. "I'm tired now."

Harry chuckled. "I could go to sleep."

There was some more kissing and little fondling before Harry was on his back again, maybe a few charms to clean themselves up, before both girls had their heads on his chest again.

In perhaps only a few moments he was almost off to dreamland when Astoria whispered, "I love you both."

He was too tired to respond, thinking it was already part of his dreams.
