Epilogue The beginning
Crystal ran her hands gently over the smooth wood of the Gryffindor Table. She had never noticed how smooth the wood was. It was soft, almost like a pillow. She couldn't believe that they were already back for their 5 year reunion. It seemed like time had just been flying by lately.
She glanced over at Harry and Draco, both excitedly talking about Quidditch and who they thought would win the next game.
She smiled as she looked down at the wedding ring on her finger. She could still remember the day when she had sealed her vow of marriage to Draco with a kiss. It has been wonderful, and had meant so much to her.
She quickly looked back over to where Harry was standing. Right out of school, both him and Crystal had worked hard to become aurors. It was a hard job, but in the end, both of them passed with high marks.
"Hello Crystal," Hermione said as she rubbed her large belly. Crystal could still remember the day she saw Hermione and Ron walk up the aisle, both eager to be together for the rest of their lives. She could also remember the look on their faces after the wedding when they found out that Hermione had become Head of Muggle Interactions while Ron became Minister of Magic. The only problem after that was that the Ministry needed an Assistant Minister. That spot, though, was quickly filled by Draco.
"It's good to see you," Crystal smiled as she looked past Hermione at Luna, Neville, and Saria, all excitedly talking about their next year at Hogwarts. They had never truly left. Neville quickly applied for the job of Herbology Professor the second he heard that Professor Sprout was retiring. While teaching, Neville fell in love with the new Occlumency Professor, Luna Lovegood. In no time at all they were happily married too.
Saria had happily come back and excepted the position of Potions Professor. While teaching she was offered a high paying job at the ministry but she quickly declined. She said that teaching had become her life.
"Crystal, guess what?" Ginny said as she came over to hug Crystal and Hermione. Even though she was a year behind them, Harry had invited her to come.
"What?" Crystal said, eager to find out what it was.
"Harry just proposed to me," she replied happily. "Oh and Fred and George were just announced the worlds largest producers of magical joke products."
"That's wonderful," Crystal smiled. No matter what happened, Crystal knew she could never forget any of these people. She also knew that none of them would ever forget the journey they had because of Harry's scar.
