Chapter 7

When Harry got back to the Common Room, the only thing he wanted to do was go out with Hermione, so all he had to do was find her. So he quickly looked around the room, and spotted her over by Ginny and Lavender.

He slowly walked over to her, putting his finger to his mouth so Lavender wouldn't tell Hermione that he was coming, and put his arms around her waist.

"Guess who." Harry said.

"Well, Im going to take a wild guess and say its Harry, beings not many other people would do this." Hermione said turning around in his grip, smiling. "Where did you go?"

"Well, I was in the locker room, and Ron came in, he wanted to talk." Harry said.

"Again? Does he just not understand what's happened, like that I don't love him?" Hermione asked sighing into Harry's shirt. "There's no hope for him, I swear."

"He'll come around." Harry said. "You wanna go outside?"

"But its after hours." She pointed out

"Yes, true, but I have an Invisibility Cloak." He said. Seeing her face he added, "You always used to before we started dating. That's no fare!"

"That's because you had a different idea for the use of it." she said with a smirk. "And stop using that face you look like a baby." He continued "Oh, fine!"

"See, if I was to have stopped, you wouldn't have come! Would you?" He said, smiling smugly.

"You're being smart." she said pointedly

"Yes, well I've been around you to much." He said kissing her quickly, then running up the stairs to get the cloak.

Hermione slowly turned back to Lavender and Ginny, "Guys, um... do you think you could possibly, well... um...." Hermione mumbled "See Harry wants me to go outside with him, could you guys-"

"Cover for you?" Lavender asked

"Would you?" She asked, a huge smile forming on her face.

"Oh course we will Mione, no problem." Ginny said, smiling.

"Now you go have fun, and make it worth us risking our necks for you." Lavender added, giggling.

"I will!" Hermione said running up the stairs to the girls dorms to change.

About ten minutes later both Harry and Hermione went down stairs to meet each other. They slipped under the Invisibility Cloak and out the Portrait.

"Harry?" someone's voice said.

"Yeah, Dad?" Harry asked back, as Hermione looked up at him, looking incredibly horrified.

"Is Hermione with you?" Sirius suddenly asked.

"Um... Yeah, why?" Harry said, unsure of what to say.

"Just wondering, have a nice night!"

"Okay, bye." They both said, walking away.

"James, why do you let them do that, you're a Professor, you're supposed to tell them to go back not, 'Oh have a nice night'!" Lily said annoyed.

"That wasn't me! It was Sirius!" James said pointing at his best friend.

"Well you still should have stopped him James." Lily said

"Oh, come on Lil, they're kids. I remember doing that with you quite a bit when we were there age." James said putting his arms around his wife. "Plus, I may be his Professor during the day, but at night I am his father, and his curfew would be later than this!"

"Okay, whatever." Lily said, starting to walk away.

"You're lucky." Sirius suddenly said

"What?" James said

"You're lucky. I mean, you have a family James, you have a wife, a kid. What more could you want. And what kills me is that I could have had that too, with Emma. But yet damn Peter Pettigrew, had to go ruin that for me!" Sirius said angrily.

"Mate, I think its time I told you something." James said, as Sirius slowly turned around. "Emma, well, she still loves you. She lives in the house you guys bought, Hagrid gave her your motorcycle. We didn't want to tell her that you were going to be alive again until we were sure you definitely were. She never believed you sold us to Voldemort."

"So, she's still wants to marry me?" Sirius said hopefully.

"Yes." James said

"I'll see you later, I gotta go to my house!" Sirius screamed as he ran down the hallway.

Outside By the Lake

"Mione," Harry said, suddenly breaking their kiss.

"Hmm... yeah?" she said smiling up at him.

"Can we move in together when schools over?" He said

"What?" she said

"Can we move in together after school ends?" Harry asked again. "I mean we don't have to, its just Im ganna miss you."

"Oh my God, I love you so much." Hermione said putting her arms around his neck and kissing him.

"So I guess it's a yes then?" Harry said smiling as he kissed her again.

"What made you just say that?" Hermione asked after a minute.

"Well, I guess I just realized how lucky I am. I always just wanted to have what I have now, you, parents, godparent, and really good friends. You guys take the time to listen to me and really care about me, and I know we all are pretty much completely safe, I just needed to tell you, because I love you so much and if I wasn't around you for the rest of my life, I think I might go crazy.." Harry said thoughtfully.

"I love you so much." Hermione said kissing him again.

Sirius and Emma's house

Sirius was standing outside of the house he had bought so many years ago, with the one person he knew he wanted to sped the rest of his life with. But that part had still not happened yet. He was still alone, and not married.

Now that he was there, he had not Idea what he was going to say, as he hadn't thought about it when he had left the castle. So he decided to knock on the door and hope for the best.

The door opened slowly and their stood the woman he had not seen for fifteen years, and she looked stunned. "Sirius?"
