Part 5 - School Begins and Reactions

Few weeks went by, and all too soon was september 1st, and time to go back to school for the two youngest Weasley's and Harry Potter himself, and also the first time they would meet their spouses to be, as their marriage would not take place until the summer by next year, due to waiting for them to be graduate from Hogwarts. But they were also charmed not do anything sexual or cheat their spouses to be with any exes and so forth.

It would anger them alot more than anything, as most of their spouses to be would also be there, aswell Hermione and her so-called husband, Marcus as the two were coming back for Hermione would be the first ever and only Mid-Wife healer in school, and Marcus had taken over for his father's job as Potions teacher as Severus decided to retire and stay more at home, as he knew the two would have children in near future, therefore he wanted to rest up for those days. Not he had anything against it, but he needed to be more aware and alert for it, but he was at least ready for it to happen.

So after the sorting was over with, Hermione saw her former friends sitting together, and it looked like Harry and Ginny were holding hands, so Hermione told the new Gryffindor Head of House, as Minerva and Albus both had retired from their roles, and the new headmaster was Filius Flitwick and the new head for Gryffindor was Sirius Black and Remus Lupin together, as Sirius would take over the days Remus needed to be away for the moon and aftermaths of his turning. These news would shock many of the students around them.

So Filius stood up on a large pile of books to reach the magical mic, and he said

"Everyone, welcome to the New Hogwarts, and to our older students, welcome back to Hogwarts. As the rules still stand, Forbidden Forest is Forbidden by ALL students. Now to some news, I took over from Albus, your former Headmaster as he chose to retire with Professor Minerva McGonagell, as it was their time to move on. But Who took over for Minerva, is Sirius Black and Remus Lupin for the head of Gryffindor, Pomona is still the head of Hufflepuff, for Ravenclaw is Aurora Sinistra, and for Slytherin will be Mr Marcus Snape. Marcus is also your Potions teacher, and Mrs Snape or I should say it as; Madam Snape who is sitting next to her husband; will be in the Hosptial Wing with Madam Pomfrey as our only Mid-Wife Healer. Welcome to you all for being here tonight. Now further ado, Please dig in."

And with that he waved his arms in the air, and food came forward by the House Elves who made their food still to this day. Hermione and Marcus both smiled, and took what they wanted as of food, and Harry, Ronald and Ginerva aswell many more were in shock of what they heard tonight, and stared up at the Head's table, especially at the two, while they ate and talked aswell laughed heartily with each other. While others were clapping for the great speech he had given before digging into the food.

Meanwhile chatters were going around the tables, especially at both Gryffindor and Slytherin, and Draco was just happy that his god-father's son were going to be his house new head, and he came to like that man who was just 5 years older than himself, and he also written a congratulations letter to Marcus and Hermione, aswell apologised for his atrious behaviour towards Hermione in same letter, aswell telling that his parents agreed on it all, and were also sending their love and congratulations, and that made the two rather happy. Hermione had written him back, and telling him that he was already forgiven by the time what he tried to do in his home, where late Bellatrix had done what she did towards Hermione, and that his parents too were forgiven.

It made things alot easier to be around each other, and accept each other too. As both Draco and his parents had been over for few times for dinners at their place, just like the two Snapes with Severus been over to the re-built new Malfoy Manor, that looked way different from before. He also during those dinners told them that his choice in this marriage law had been Lily Peters, a fellow girl in Hufflepuff house and very beautiful witch at that. Hermione had told the two if anything, she would help them with anything. That made the two rather happy to hear her say so, as Lily had been over too one of those evenings for a dinner invitation and gotten fairly good along with her soon to be in-law's.

Draco then told what his friends were paired up with; Crabbe with Maria Nielson from Ravenclaw, Blaise with Nina Sellers from Gryffindor, Pansy with Matthew Nettles from Hufflepuff,and lastly was both the Greengrass sisters, who had been paired up with Daphne with Adam Neel and Astoria with Damon Salvatore who was a fellow in Slytherin and Adam was from Ravenclaw. All of them were pleased with whom they were paired up with somewhat, Pansy and Astoria both were upset as they both had wanted to be with Draco, as the two were in love with him, but the law prevented that to even happen, so they had to accept one or another way of their spouses to be with.

Ronald and Harry both would be pissed and shocked when they learned that Hermione were now more friendly to friends to those Slytherins, and still married to Marcus. As they with Ginerva thought it was all faked for she didnt want to be married to Ronald, but now they got the shock to hear that it all was the truth, as Neville had kept in contact with her after revealing this, and she had presented him with their marriage contract and license, and it will shock those three when he shows them later that evening when those idiots asked where Hermione was.
