Happy Ending —Morgan—

"Morgan!! Honey, can you take Mary K to school this morning?"

"Why?" I groaned, throwing my hand over my eyes. I'd finished school months ago, and I still had to get up early?!?! What kind of justice was that?

"Please, honey! I have to go to work." The door closed, and I guess that was that. With a groan, I got out of bed and shuffled to the bathroom to take a shower. It was my birthday soon. In a matter of days, in fact. As I let the water run down my back, I thought about the past year that had flown by.

Hunter had gone back to England to continue teaching, and I'd stayed here to finish school. Once I graduated, I'd intended to go see Hunter, but I just got caught up. We hardly talked at the moment, and with Hunter setting up a new Council with a graduated Harry and Draco, his future looked bright. Alwyn and I had started getting along. Once she found out I'd helped to kill my father, I was her new best friend. She was wonderful, and she kept saying that she couldn't wait to be my sister-in-law.

Mary K banged on the door. "Five minutes! Come on, Morgan!"

Frantically, I jumped out of the shower and pulled on some clothes. Then I drove Mary K to school, kissing her lightly on the cheek as she started to get out. "Stay happy," I told her. She smiled prettily, and then skipped off to her friends, hugging them. Boisterous teenage greetings were heard, and I turned the car back to go home.

—Hunter—

"Are you sure you can't make it?" Harry groaned and rubbed his forehead. "Hermione, I know that it's going to be hard, but she'd love to see you. Yes, yes. I understand. Thanks, Hermione. Love you too."

Harry hung up, smiling at me. "She can come," he said happily.

I grinned. "Ta."

Harry's face took on a more serious look. "When are you going to see her again?"

I looked down at my work, picking up a quill and scribbling madly. "I thought we weren't going to discuss this, Harry."

"Yeah, well, I think that we should go see her."

"You just want to see Mary K," I countered. Harry's face coloured, and I smirked. "Ha! Look, it's Morgan's birthday soon, so I'll see her then. Until then, though, I want to hear no more talk of Morgan. It makes me nervous just thinking about it."

Harry laughed as Draco walked into the room, scratching his head. "Has anyone seen the records of the Ministry?" he asked. "I'm sure I left them on my desk, but..."

I pulled a sheaf of papers from my desk drawer. "Here. They were on your desk, but I took them to look at. Sorry."

He shrugged, taking them and falling onto a leather couch. "It's cool. I just want to read through them again. How was Hermione?" he asked Harry.

Harry smiled. "She's flourishing. Working with her parents in an English coven is making her incredibly happy. She's having so much fun."

"Good." Draco turned to me. "So, how's Morgan?"

I sighed. "Frankly, we haven't spoken in a while. She's been awfully busy, but it's her birthday soon, and I'm going to go see her."

"How soon?" Draco asked.

"Four days."

"Holy hell!" he yelled, standing up and throwing the papers everywhere. "Well, we have to get Hermione on the way, don't we? And for Harry's sake, we should at least be there a day earlier. We have to start packing! RIGHT NOW!!"

He grabbed my collar, and much to my dismay, he pulled me out of the room.

—Morgan—

A few days passed, and it was my birthday. As usual, we were going to have my family 'birthday dinner', and not a family birthday breakfast. So, I took Mary K to school, went and ran a few errands for mum, and then went to pick Mary K up from school. As she got into the car, a mysterious smile loomed on her face. I raised an eyebrow.

"What?" she asked innocently. I narrowed my eyes and turned the car towards home.

As we got home, Mary K got out of the car and ran towards the door before I could even turn off Das Boot. With a sigh, I turned off my car and got out, walking to the house. I opened the door. All the lights were off. I groaned. Another stupid surprise party, right?

Little did I know, there was more to this surprise party that I knew. I turned towards the den, and slowly pushed open a door. Immediately, a light flicked on and people jumped out yelling 'surprise!!' The room was filled with people, but my eyes focused on one. One that had blonde, blonde hair and green eyes.

Before I knew it, I was crying, and running into Hunter's arms. "You're here!" I screamed. "You're really here!!!"

He laughed. "Yeah, I gathered that."

I kissed him strongly, and broke away as everyone in the room went 'awwww'. I looked around the room and saw Hermione standing with Draco (holding hands), and Harry with Mary K. I noticed with amusement that Harry had his arm around me sister, and they looked quite cosy. Uh-oh, Mary K's dating a witch/wizard... and my parents weren't happy about me.

With a smile, I turned back to Hunter. "So, how's everything going?" I asked, while everyone in the room began to chat.

"With the Council?" he asked.

I nodded.

"Well, it's crazy. The ICOW isn't entirely happy... in fact, they're absolutely annoyed. I've never seen them so angry before this, except for when the leader of our group got into a huge argument with Cornelius Fudge. I don't even want to think about that..." he scratched his head. Suddenly he smiled, taking her hand. "Come with me. I want to talk to you."

"That sounds ominous," I imitated in my best English accent, and he slapped my head lightly.

"No, seriously. I really want—need to speak to you."

"Okay. Tell."

He looked around nervously, and leaned closer to me. "In private?"

I raised an eyebrow, but I could feel his nervousness, his worry and his anxiousness. So I nodded and took him upstairs to my room, where I closed the door behind me. He was standing over at my window, and as soon as I closed the door, he walked over and pulled me to him roughly, burying his face in my shoulder.

"I missed you so much," he murmured. "I wish I could have talked to you more."

I took his hands and pulled him over to my bed, where we collapsed, kissing. He pulled away suddenly, looking at me and stroking a slender finger down my cheek.

"I have something to tell you," he said. "Do you want to the long version, or the short version?"

Knowing Hunter and his long speeches, I said, "The short version."

"Morgan, I love you, you know that. Well, will you join me in handfasting? Will you be my wife?"

My breath stopped. Oh, God. OhGodOhGodOhGodOhGodOhGodOhGod. I licked my lips. "Um... of course I will! But... with the whole marriage thing... we should have two ceremonies."

He looked confused. "Why?"

I gave him a look. "Parents, family. Hello? The whole Wiccan handfasting thing won't go down well. We'll just have a little ceremony – a Catholic one, but it won't mean anything. We'll have a proper handfasting."

"You've though about this a lot, haven't you?"

I blushed, making him laugh. "Yes, whatever you say. Personally, I think it's a wonderful idea. And... here."

He pulled a box out from his jacket pocket, opening it. "I was planning to give it to you whether you said yes or no," he explained. The ring was gold, with a diamond the size and colour of the tears dripping down my cheeks. He slid it on my finger, and I collapsed in sobs, leaning on his chest. "Morgan, are you all right?"

I nodded, wiping my eyes. "I'm just... so happy."

He smiled. "How about traditional, old-fashioned birthday cake to cheer you up?"

I laughed, hugging him. "I am cheerful! But, birthday cake would be nice."

There was a knock on my door, and Hunter and I entangled ourselves and sat side by side on the bed, me leaning on his shoulder and him having his arm around me. "Come in," I called.

Mary K walked inside, and stopped short when she saw my tear-streaked face. "Oh, God..." she murmured. "Who died?"

Hunter and I broke out into giggles and Mary K knelt in front of me. "What's up?" I showed her the ring on my hand, and she screamed, getting up and running downstairs. Her footsteps stopped, and then she turned and ran back upstairs. "I'll let you tell them," she said, a sheepish grin spreading over her face. "Mrs Morgan Niall!!" she cried, and threw herself onto Hunter and I, pinning us both down on the bed.

Everyone was so happy when they heard the news. I'd spoken to my mum about the different ceremonies, and she'd smiled, hugging me. "I understand completely," she'd said, tears in her eyes. "But, I'd like to be there for both of them, just as Mary K and Sean would."

It was then I started crying, and I hadn't stopped for half an hour. Mum kept taking my hand and squeezing it, making me feel so happy. She was happy for Hunter and I, and that's what mattered. Everything, for once, was going wonderfully.

So wonderfully.
