*Set to the reprise of 'Sally's song' From 'Nightmare Before Christmas' (Which was the first
song of this fic) I don't own it
-Simply Meant to Be-
After the months of planning, the wedding dress fittings, the reservations, arranging caterers.... we
had the wedding, surrounded by all our friends and family. We went on our honeymoon and
returned back to our home as newlyweds. On our anniversary we would use the portkey to go to
our paradise, but I would still go there in my head when I wanted to think or be alone.
About two years after we were married I had twins... a girl and a boy. Their names were Erica
and Joshua.(I just loved those names) They were the joy of our lives. Erica was a mirror image of
me, except while inheriting my curls she had Ron's fire red hair. Joshua looked like Ron, and he
called him "Mini Me" like in a muggle movie we once saw.
One day Ron took both children to a playground that was near our house and I had stayed home
to tidy up the house. I was taking a break from cleaning and sat down on the couch for a minute.
I closed my eyes and the blackness transformed almost immediately into my getaway. This time in
my paradise the sun was already set, but the familiar warm breeze blew past me. I had never gone
to my paradise and had it been night time. I looked up and saw the sky with pinprick stars and a
full silver moon. 'This is odd...' I thought to myself. As I was walking in silence I saw large dark
tree... but there was someone sitting at the roots of it.... That seemed to have a pale glow all
around them.
~My dearest friend
~If you don't mind
I walked a bit closer and let out a small gasp. He heard and turned around. "Harry?" I said
almost in a whisper. He smiled slightly as he stood up to face me. He nodded. "I... where.. How
are you here?"
He put his finger to my lips, and then held his hand out to me. I took it and we began to walk.
Walk to nowhere because there wasn't any real place to go. He looked so heavenly... peaceful.
~I'd like to join you by your side
"I watch down on you all the time you know..." he said after a while. "Ever since the night I died.
I watched you... I watched you cry. I watched you slap Ron...." he laughed "but then I had to
watch you try and take your life... I was crying up in heaven as I watched you, Hermione."
I bit my lip and looked up at him.
"It's alright. I am forever grateful to Ron for saving you, though."
"Yeah me too," I sighed.
"I'm so happy for you both, and there isn't a better match for either of you anywhere in the
world."
We sat down on the grass and looked into the stars, like the ones that we sought comfort from the
night of the battle. I knew then why the stars were present.
"Your children are beautiful," he said to me, "Just to let you know, though... Erica just pushed
Joshua down at the park."
That confused me, he couldn't possibly know something like that.
"She has quite a little attitude," he laughed, "Just like you did."
We sat staring at the stars just like we had at 10:00 sharp the night of the battle. I leaned my head
on his shoulder, not understanding if this was me making this up in my head, or if he was actually
there.
~Where we can gaze into the stars
~And sit together
~Now and forever
In the distance I heard a muffled voice say, "Darling! We're back from the park...." and the sound
of a key in the door.
We stood up. "I have to leave now. Everything will be ok and remember..." he said kissing me
on the cheek, "I will love you always..."
He took a few steps back from me as I said, "I love you forever." Our hands pulled apart slowly,
and when they did he turned around and began to walk away. As he got further away his figure
began to fade until he was gone.
~For it is plain as anyone can see
~We're simply meant to be.....
As soon as he was gone the sky changed rapidly from black and star filled back to its original pink
and purple. The change startled me and I opened me eyes quickly. I found myself back on my
livingroom couch hearing the voices of my children flood the house.
"Hello, Darling," Ron said leaning down and kissing me.
And then my children ran into the room and jumped on me on the couch. "Hi Mommy!" Erica
said happily giving me a hug.
"Hey guys! Did you have fun at the park with Daddy?"
"Yep!" They replied in unison.
"Oh, Good! Now you two go wash up for dinner," And with that they ran out of the room and
raced up the stairs. Me and Ron walked out onto the front porch and I asked him, "How were
they at the park?"
"Good, except Erica pushed Joshua down and he skinned his elbow." he said with a slight laugh.
"Yeah, I know," I said absentmindedly.
"You know," he raised an eyebrow at me in disbelief. "How?"
I looked up into the sky and smiled, "A little angel told me so."
~*The End*~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
TA-DAAAAAAAAA! That was the end (Hence the "the end" at the end of it" ahaha) That was
the hardest out of all the chapters to write, and I'm really sad that it's over now, because I love
writing this story. Well now I'll just have to move on to other stories. I have plenty of time to
write this weekend because I can currently snowed in from a huge snow storm we are having.
Please check out some of my other stories I think I have four others...or five... I dunno. Thanks a
million for all of those who reviewed already and I think I am going to post a page that thanks
everybody individually. So please review now that the story is done and tell me how you liked the
story as a whole. Thanks again and please review!
Sincerely
*Jenna*
