Epilogue:

" Higher Gin come on now ..." said Harry from his broomstick hovering high above the ground with his son in the front.

" Yeah mom let's catch up to James and dad" said their younger daughter Katherine Lily Potter who was a few meters below with Ginny on her broom.

Ginny looked up at her husband, and flew higher , playing back old memories. She smiled when she remembered the exact incident happening in the summer of her seventh year.

Five years had passed since the departure of Dumbledore and Harry getting his eyes back and Ginny receiving her normal face. Five very eventful years. They were both keepers of Hogwarts. Harry did not yet wish to take up the responsibility of being headmaster so the job was given to Mcgonogall because of her seniority. Harry of course held the power to control the magic within the castle but he simply wished to teach as a defense against the dark arts teacher till Mcgonogall retired at the very least. Ginny herself was back as a healer though she still continued on her research with new potions with Hermione. Harry had asked to marry her a month after the fateful day and here they were after five years with two kids , a four year old son and a three year old daughter at the annual picnic, organized by Hogwarts staff and students for friends and family to reflect and enjoy the happy times bestowed on them.

She could see her mum distributing the baked goods to the little kids with a big smile plastered on her face. She laughed as she saw Fred and George being chased by Ron's little son Mathew who was holding strange looking slime balls in his hand and had an evil glint in his eyes. He had inherited his mother's intelligence and father's strategic thinking and was becoming quite the troublemaker. Ginny loved her godson. Harry had already started giving the three children ideas about holding on the tradition of being a true Marauder and looking at Mathew she knew that he heeded his Uncle Harry's word very seriously.

Coming out of her little musing Ginny realized she had followed Harry back to ground and now was sitting on a blanket with Harry's head on her lap.

" Knut for your thoughts" he said smiling when she looked down at him. She smiled.

" I am just wondering how lucky we are " said Ginny sighing contentedly.

Harry cupped her face and brought it down to kiss her. " Did I tell you that you look beautiful today and I love you?" he asked.

Ginny faked a thinking face and then smiled "You did but it's always good to hear it. I love you too" . They shared a moment of blissful silent just observing the moment, until Harry noticed his son had come up to them with his hands out streched.

" Dad do you want to have a sherbet lemon? Someone told me they make you sweeter"
