May 2003 – Epilogue – The Lupins

Remus was saying his goodbyes to Harry.

His young wife who had recovered from the birth of her child came into the classroom to wait for her husband to come down from his office.

Harry came forward holding a piece of paper and Remus came out beside him.

Khadja stepped forward holding her tiny infant bundled in her arms. "I am your godmother Harry. I have been watching you always and now both I and Sirius will."

"How are you my godmother when...?" Harry asked

"I was once married to Sirius." She said and then Remus wrapped his arm about her and led her from the room.

Harry was left to ponder that.

Khadja went out to the carriage. Their things would be loaded soon.

She looked at her husband softly. "I love you." She told him and leaned forward the babe between them and kissed him softly.

"I know." He smiled.

He helped her into the carriage and passed their infant son up to her. He was so in wonder at the events that had shaped his life. Sirius had not betrayed them, but Peter Pettigrew had. All these years and Sirius understood.

Sirius had been there to help Khadja give birth. Sirius had been there for Remus when he had gotten very depressed.

He was a whole man and would be forever with his wife.

FOREVER!
