Chapter 17- Time Moves On
Once again, the school seemed to be at ease. Tension could not be seen anywhere, for which they were all glad for. Hermione was soon on all of the 7th year Gryffindors' cases to study for their N.E.W.T.s (all of whom passed with flying colors including Neville). Graduation passed without ordeal. Harry clapped the loudest of them all when Hermione finished her speech.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ 10 Years Later (also known as "the epilogue")
Harry and Hermione married shortly after graduation. Harry now plays Quidditch for the Montrose Magpies. Hermione works for the Ministry, and many believe she will be the next Minister (A/N: I'm pretty sure that for women, they're Magstrix (or something like that), but obviously I'm not positive). They have two children, James and Lily.
Ron, after many years, settled down with a Muggle woman named Caroline. Ron works for the Ministry in the Department of Magical Games and Sports, and is well on his way to becoming the Head. Caroline is a lawyer, working out of their home. She also watches their daughter, Taylor.
Neville replaced Madame Sprout as the Herbology professor only 2 years after their graduation. He married his long time girlfriend Ginny Weasley on August 31 of that year. They currently have 3 children Jessica, Amber, and Hunter, and are expecting a fourth and fifth (twins).
And finally, Dean and Padma split up after only a few months right after their 7th year. Looking for comfort, Dean went to Seamus' flat. After days of thought, Dean went back to Padma and apologized profusely for what he had done, and she took him back. Seamus got back with Parvati at Dean and Padma's wedding. They were married a year later.
The End
It's all over now! Not a satisfactory ending, I know, but I couldn't think of anything else. But to compensate, I have a brand new story! You should read it! I've been trying hard to make something different, and I think I finally did!
Brief summary of my new summary: Having found information about sex that scared her (STDs, namely), Hermione vows not to have sex until after she is married to the most perfect man alive. But when the man she thinks is perfect drops her because of her idea of abstinence, Hermione is comforted by the one who's loved her all along.
The story is called "Principles" and I hope you'll all go read it! I know the title sucks, but I can't think of anything better and since I've already uploaded chapter 1, I'm not going to change it now.
Hehe! That'll get you to read it…hopefully.
Don't forget to review! I thrive on those things!
