Chapter 15 / Epilogue
Moving On
Vera reluctantly pulled away from Wood. "I'm going to miss you."
Wood sighed. "I'll miss you too. But you're coming to visit me over the break, don't forget that."
Vera smiled. "How could I? I'll be staying with Aunt Minerva, just so you know."
Wood nodded and looked at her for a second. "I'm going to be so worried about you."
"I do seem to always get into some trouble now don't I?" she replied quietly.
Wood grinned. "Well, I have something for you that might help keep you out of trouble. I know how much you loved Athena, so. . ." he trailed off as he picked something up from out of the shadows. Vera gasped as he handed her a small white kitten, which stared up at her with wide blue eyes. "You need someone to watch over you when I'm not there."
Vera's eyes filled with tears as the little kitten meowed and started to purr. She looked up to see Wood smiling broadly. "Oliver. . . I don't even know what to say!"
He shrugged. "Then how about you just kiss me?"
Vera laughed and obliged, hardly believing that she had ended up with such a guy. As the train signaled that it was about to leave, Vera pulled back. "One more thing. Since I no longer have to run, it seems like I'll be spending my final year here at Hogwarts. Now you had better get on that train."
He nodded but leaned in to kiss her again. After several seconds, he could hear the Weasley twins behind him yelling. "Any day now Oliver!"
Vera laughed as she pulled away. "I love you. Now get on that train." He chuckled and did as he was told, waving to her as the train left.
Vera looked down at the newborn feline. Letting the small white kitten sit upon her shoulder, she turned and made her way back to the castle with a smile on her face.

And there is the end of the story! I had a lot of fun writing it and I hoped you liked reading it! Now I have a favor to ask of you. Please let me know what you liked and didn't like of the story. I want to be a writer some day and every opinion helps! Thank you to every one of you that has sent me feedback, it means a lot to me, I mean it!
Now, I have thought about writing a sequel, but I'm not sure. Right now, I'm going to go post a short story about Elrond that I wrote last night. After that, it'll either be a Glorfindel story, or an Oliver story. . . not sure yet. I'll let you know though! Thanks again to everyone! ~ Alexandra
