Chapter Five: Celebration
Dedicated to Reaper
School was almost over and Summer rapidly approaching. But that wasn't why the castle, nor it's students, were in such a excitable mood. No, for you see, Harry Potter was to be wedded to Severus Snape two days from now. And Remus Lupin and Sirius Black, who had been freed by the Ministry, was due to marry following Harry and Severus' wedding. The Great Hall was being decorated under the strictness of Lily Potter, who had one goal in mind. Happy Couples . . . Perfect Wedding! And No one, and She meant no one, was going to stand in her way of completing that goal. James Potter was busily helping Severus and Sirius remember their lines, since he was the Best Man at both Severus and Sirius' weddings, getting their ceremonial robes cleaned and pressed. And just trying to kept the two away from Harry and Remus, who were under Molly Weasley's watchful eye.
Mrs. Weasley was busily helping both Remus and Harry to remember their lines, getting their ceremonial robes cleaned and pressed, keeping them away from their future husbands and trying to calm their poor nerves. Ron Weasley, Harry's Best Man, was busily helping Lily with the decorations, attending to his siblings and trying to Calm Hermione's frantic nerves. He was also making sure that Severus' secondary ceremonial robes were fresh and clean for he was Remus' best man. This constant behavior often lead both grooms and their future spouses to disappear for hours on end.
*
Harry curled into Severus' side, the two had disappeared from the practice Ceremony earlier that day. Remus and Sirius had done the same thing. The two were, currently, hiding out on the Quidditch Pitch away from everyone else. "Come this time two days from now, we'll be married" said Severus. "It's kinda strange, to think we'll be married".
"And bonded, Love" Harry interjected. "Can't forget that . . . Dad would have your head if you did".
"Probably would, Now, Love, you do know whose walking you down the aisle?" Severus questioned. "It's not either of your parents nor Sirius or Remus".
"I know . . . Mum's coordinating the whole thing, Dad's your Best Man, Sirius and Remus will be in the audience . . . It's none of the Weasley, as they will also be in the audience" said Harry. "Brings only one person to mind . . . Professor Dumbledore, whose also giving the ceremony".
"Yes . . . Sneaky bastard isn't he" said Severus. "Knew about this whole thing before we even came out with it". Harry nodded. "He'll have to teach me a few of his tricks". That sent Harry into gales of laughter. "And what, may I ask, is funny?"
"Nothing, Sevvie" Harry purred. Severus snorted and leaned down and kissed Harry. The young man pulled his future husband down on top of him. They pulled back, breathless, "Think we got enough time for a quick shag before Mum hunts us down?"
"Maybe."
"SEVERUS SNAPE . . . .HAROLD JAMES POTTER!!!"
"Then again, Maybe not".
The two looked over and saw Lily Potter's angry face. "Wonderful timing, Lily" Severus drawled. "Impecable".
"GET UP TO THAT CASTLE BEFORE I SKIN THE BOTH OF YOU!!" she roared. "AND HANDS TO YOURSELVES!!"
"Ah, Mum" Harry whined. "You're taking away all our fun". He earned a smack from his mother on the head. Harry gave his mother, one of his most charmiest of smiles. Lily gave her son a glare instead of taking the bait. "Okay . . .Okay, You win . . . No touching . . . Sheesh".
Severus merely snorted at the two's behaviour. "Honestly, Lily, I recall you and James groping each other, days before . . . . OW!!"
"Bad Mental Pictures!!!" Harry cried. He covered his ears, which James, who had appeared out of no where, had already done. "EWW!!! That is something I didn't want to know". Again, Lily smacked Severus over the head. James, all the while, trying to cover his snickering at his wife, friend and son's behaviour, by burying it in Harry's hair. "Dad's snickering, Mum".
"JAMES HAROLD POTTER!!!"
At this opportunity, Severus and Harry dashed away, making their escape through one of the many hidden passages ways. "OH NO!!! I'VE LOST THEM AGAIN!!!"
"They're harder to keep track of then Remus and Sirius . . . and Those have been . . . . Mmpphf!!"
"Don't say it, James".

Percy jumped about a mile as the door of the great Hall slammed opened. He looked upwards, his blue eyes unseeing. But he knew who it was. "Hello, Harry" Percy said. "Hiding from your Mum?"
"Who wouldn't be?" Harry replied. "Come along, Percy, we have to hide from Mum's wrath and we couldn't leave you nor Bill here". "Sev, Dearest, get Bill would you?" He helped Percy up and was already heading out of the side door when Severus and Bill joined them.
"What did you do to concur your mother's wrath, again?" Bill inquired. He looked at the teen that he considered one of his little brothers.
"Haven't the Foggiest" Harry replied. "Really, she gets mad at me for the silliest things . . .We only disappeared for two . . ."
"Three, Love . . . "
"Three hours, that's shorter then what Moony and Padfoot have been gone for" Harry replied. "Speak of the Devils". Remus and Sirius rounded the corner with Ginny over one Shoulder and Hermione under the other. "You didn't see Mum around did you?"
"Nope, Honestly, we're acting like commandoes" said Remus. "And she expects us to stay away from each other . . . Her behaviour is driving us to seek each other out". The four looked around carefully, guarding Bill, Hermione, Ginny and Percy.
"Uh? She's heading this way" said Percy. "And she's coming from that way". Harry nodded.
"Sirius, you and Sev head back toward Sev's chambers . . .Moony, we're headed toward the Gryffindor Tower" said Harry. "Use the Hidden Passages to stay out of Mum's sight". Each couple gave each other a kiss farewell and departed still carrying or helping along one of their companions.
They passed several seventh years. Hannah Abbott, already knowing of Lily's rage, grabbed Harry and Remus and shoved them into a nearby classroom. Percy and Ginny stood behind Harry and Remus. "Oh, Hello Professor Potter" said the Hufflepuff .
"Oh, hello Hannah . . . You haven't seen my son around did you?"
"Harry? Last I saw he was heading toward the Kitchens . . . To check on the Wedding feast" Hannah answered. "Why don't I help you find him". Harry heard the fading of heels. Harry and Remus peeked out.
"Yup, I definitely feel like a Commando" Harry snickered. "Ready to go, Moony?"
"You got it, Radar" Remus snickered. "Come got to Hostages to deliver to home terroritory". Percy was stifling his laughter while Ginny was giggling softly.
*
Albus Dumbledore never seen the Castle is such excitement. The younger students were helping out in the decorations and the older students were playing Commandoes as Harry had put it. They even created a code and often hide Harry, Remus, Sirius and Severus from Lily. It was quite amusing. "You know Radar, I do believe you're causing your mother quite enough distress". The aging Headmaster looked up to the emerald eyed Falcon perched on his shoulder. The Falcon returned a look that clearly said, 'Who? Me? Nah'.
Albus chuckled and watched as Lily stormed in and questioned her husband about hiding their son. "Lily, may I inquire why you're looking for Harry?" Albus inquired.
"He has an appointment and I won't let him miss it" Lily replied. Albus shot a glance at the Falcon. The look on it's face clearly said, 'That's what you think'.
"What is this appointment?"
"Oh, a simple doctor appointment with your old friend, Attis Greenwood" Lily replied. Albus didn't mask his look to the falcon.
"Well, Harry, my dear boy" said Albus, quite clearly. "I suggest you fly for it". The Falcon took off into the air. Lily was grumbling while James was laughing his head off.
"That's My Kid" he laughed. That earned him a disapproving look from Lily. "Oh, come off it, Lily". "The kid has more sense then I did at his age, I doubt his going to get pregnant over the Honeymoon". Albus watched the arguing parents walk out of the room. He felt something land on his shoulder.
"Hello, Harry".
The Falcon disappeared leaving Harry in it place. "Hi, Headmaster . . . Thanks for getting me out of that tiff wiht Mum" said Harry.
"Not a problem . . . I wouldn't send anyone to Attis Greenwood, even if he is my brother-in-law and good friend" said Albus. "People say he's far more nutty then I am". Harry raised an eyebrow.
"No offense, Headmaster . . . But is that even possible?"
"Oh, I sure it is".
*
The Day of the Wedding . . . .
"MUM!!! LEGGO!!!"
"Lily, Dear, I think you're strangling Harry" Mrs. Weasley said. She pried the younger woman's arms away from Harry's neck, who slumped on to Ron, breathing heavily. "Why don't you make sure the Great Hall and all the Guests are in their places, Dear?"
Lily nodded, she kissed her son's forehead and walked away. "Well, Harry, Dear, let's get you tidied up, shall we?" asked Mrs. Weasley, waving her wand. The wrinkles in Harry's ceremonial robes vanished and so did his glasses. "You look much better with out the glasses, Dear".
"Thanks, Mrs. Weasley" said Harry. He looked at himself in the mirror. "Ah . . . You don't have anything that will settle nerves, do you?"
"Sev, stop pacing, you're going to wear a hole in the carpet" James warned. The other man ignored his friend and continued his pacing. James raised his wand and muttered a spell. Severus stopped pacing.
"It's about time you gave him that Spell" Sirius said. "I really thought he was going to put a hole in the floor". Severus glared at the two men, and ran a hand through his shiny black hair. "Ah, relax, Snapey . . . You're acting like James did when he was marrying Lil".
"And don't even get him started on how nervous he was when Lily went into labour" said Remus. "Anyways, Come on Sirius, we gotta get our seats . . . See you guys up there". The two engaged couple walked out. Severus raised an eyebrow.
"Lemme guess, You have a nervouse Breakdown?" Severus inquired.
"Fainted dead to the floor" James added. "But don't tell them that . . . They thought I passed out from the fact that Lily practically crushed my hand". Severus snickered.
*
The crowd fell to a hush when they heard the music start, everyone turned to see Harry and Dumbledore standing in the Great Hall doorway. Slowly, the two walked up to the altar where Severus and James stood with Ron on the left side. Harry took his place at Severus' side while Dumbledore stood in front of them. The hall fell quiet.
"Gathering of Light, you gather here today to celebrate the magical union of Severus Aeneas Snape and Harold James Potter. Severus Aeneas Snape, you have been chosen by The Fates to be in this union to Harold James Potter, do you accept?"
"I accept this decision and go whole-heartedly into this union".
"Harold James Potter, you have been chosen by The Fates to be in this union with Severus Aeneas Snape, do you accept?
"I accept this decision and go whole-heartedly into this union".
"The rings . . ."
James and Ron pulled them out and gave them Harry and Severus. " . . . Now, together repeat after me . . . I take thee as thy Husband, for now and til our souls meet in future lives . . .This I do vow".
"I take thee as they husband, for now and til our souls meet in future lives . . . This I do vow". Together, Severus and Harry slipped the bands on to each other's fingers. They smiled.
"The marriage ceremony has concluded . . . Tiem for the binding of the Souls . . . The Binding Scarf . . ." James and Ron produced the scarf. " Raise your outside arm and grasp each other's elbow". The two did as instructed, Dumbledore tied the scarf around their joined arms. "With this Soul Scarf . . . May your souls be united and bound together, now and forever. Severus . . . Harold, repeat after me . . . With the Linking of our two souls, we are now and forever joined . . . May death nor other forces tear this bond".
"With the Linking of our two souls, we are now and forever joined . . . May death nor other forces tear this bond". The scarf glowed white and disappeared.
Dumbledore faced James and Ron. "Do You, James Harold Potter . . . And You, Ronald Arthur Weasley, agree to help and aide Severus Aeneas Snape and Harold James Potter-Snape?"
"I do".
"To seal this union and forever bound you, a kiss is required . . . I believe you know this part". Severus leaned down and captured Harry's lips in a heated kiss. The Hall erupted into clapping and whistling. Cameras flashed as many reporters took pictures. Severus and Harry pulled back. "I am Please to announce for the first time, Severus and Harold Potter-Snape."
More flashes and clapping. Harry smiled to each camera. He felt on top of the world. He knew that Severus felt the same way. The two walked down from the altar, People were throwing confetti into the air. Harry and Severus looked at each other before exiting. "I love you" they whispered.
*
Parties and celebrations were held for that week, Wizards and Witches everywhere were celebrating the union of the Four Heroes of the Wizarding World. Severus and Harry Potter-Snape and Sirius and Remus Lupin-Black. But Little did they realize that they would have caused to celebrate even more.
*
Four years Later . . .
Twenty-One year-old Harry Potter-Snape smiled at potion that was bubbling before him. He rubbed his chin, No one could learn of this . . . No one. This was going to be a surprise, either for Christmas or for Severus' birthday which was in February. But it all depended on when they decided to make an entrance. Harry smiled and rubbed his flat stomach. He knew that everyone would make a fuss about him. They did it with Remus when he gave birth to his and Sirius' twins, Orion and Artemis Lupin Black, who were turning two come June. They're doing it with Hermione and Ginny, who were also due around the same time as he was. So, no one was going to learn that Harry James Potter-Snape was pregnant on Twins. He stood and began to clean up and dump the potion. He began humming a lullabye, one of his favorites.
"And what are you doing, Love?" came a voice. Harry turned and gave his husband, one of his beautifuliest smiles. He walked over and gave Severus a kiss on the nose. And returned to cleaning up. "Okay, what do you want?"
"What makes you think I want anything?" Harry inquired.
"You're acting to perky and Happy, you normally do that when you want something" said Severus. Harry smiled and dumped the potion. He walked over and wrapped his arms around Severus' waist and leaned his chin on his husband's chest.
"Can't I be like this because I wanna be like this?" Harry inquired. He, again, gave his husband a kiss on the nose. "Besides, I'm just in a good mood". He walked out into the main apartment. An extra sway in his hips. Severus raised an eyebrow. Something was definitely up.
"Okay, what did Hermione or Ginny ask you?" Severus asked. "Was it for us to be Godparents to one of their unborn children?"
"Well, that did arise . . . And I did say yes, To Hermione of course" said Harry. "And to Ginny". Severus narrowed his eyes. "I'm with Hermione, your for Ginny . . . I kinda figure that because Ginny is married to Draco and Ron is my best friend".
"Fine . . . Is their anything else?"
"Nope . . . I guess it's all in the happiness in the air" said Harry. "It's circulating". He gave Severus another sunny smile. He walked into the Kitchen he had install and began to cook up supper. All the while humming that Lullabye. Severus shook his head. He knew what was wrong, Babies . . . Babies were on his husband's mind. Oh, if only, Severus knew . . . If only.
THE END!!!
