Volratho- Yes I got your PM, thanks for the review, I'm glad you didn't get pissed off and stop reading.
Idontcare2009- I replied this in a PM however for those of you who still might be confused, Hermione is a professor, I realized that I wrote it as if she was one, then realized that I never made her one, she is but I don't know what she teaches. Lol
LaNaHwAnNa-I said that you guys were probably going to kill me but by the end possibly like me again. Like I said, I spent too much time on the wedding ideas to not have one.
OCFan2006-Yeah I needed a twist in the story, especially since the wedding plans were finished. I'm glad you didn't stop reading.
Luigi III- Please don't die, and don't kill yourself, its not that bad. Thanks for the "Meppy Chrisnukmas" that's funny. I celebrate Christmas for anybody who cares.
The Gryffindor Drummer- Smelly fish? Are you sure not a brick? That was a weird review but thanks for it anyway.
JusticeStrouce-oh, okay. I'm glad you enjoyed. Enjoy this chapter
Gryffindor620- I didn't see it but like I said, hey if you see it and it keeps you reading this story, be my guest.
peachie1st- sorry I didn't write ASAP, too much to do.
Lord Firefox- Yeah I was surprised at myself for doing that but thanks for reminding me. Never saw the movie, so that probably won't happen.
lazza33- lol. So did I! AND I WROTE THE STORY! Hehe
stairway2heaven1138- again, I needed a plot twist, and this was one way to do it.
--Chapter 25—
(Reposted as of December 22, 2005)
(AN: If you already read it, I took the story from somewhere else, and it was a post HBP book, and it had that Harry got stuff from Dumbledore but he wasn't dead so I just removed it. Thats all)
It was Sunday morning. He and Hermione were back together. Hermione was pregnant with triplets. Hermione was sleeping peacefully next to him. He got out of bed and went into the shower. When he came out, Hermione did the same.
While in the shower, Hedwig came and knocked at the window. He opened the window took the letter from her and she was off (A/N: the only reason why Hedwig brings all the letters is because the other owls bring it to Hedwig and Hedwig takes it to Harry.)
The letter was addressed to him.
Harry,
Read about your little engagement to Hermione, sorry I didn't write earlier, but congratulations. Best of luck.
Draco Malfoy.
Harry had forgotten that he was no longer evil and forgot to tell him. It was nice that he congratulated them.
Hermione came out of the shower and read the note when Harry handed it to her. "That was nice of him" she said "That reminds me, I want to write to my parents."
She pulled out parchment and a quill
Mom and Dad,
I am ashamed that you wrote that to me the day before Valentines day. We alerted you in November and you tell us in February that we cannot get married. I'm sorry, but that is not going to happen. Harry and I are going to get married as planned, with or without your consent.
You almost ruined our relationship, wedding and our Valentine's day. I am completely furious that you would do something this cruel. The wedding invitation still stands, but if you decline the second invitation, don't expect that were going to call of the wedding on your behalf.
Oh and by the way, I'm due on July 3rd, with triplets.
Hermione and Harry (future son-in-law)
"Think that has enough in it to make them pass out?" Hermione asked
"Yes, definitely" Harry said attaching it to Hedwig's leg. "Get this to the Grangers as soon as possible" and she took off.
They went down to breakfast, Hermione covered up her stomach with that charm that Madam Pomfrey said was still perfectly fine to use. Hermione ate what she needed, which was a lot, but Harry ignored it. He still loved her.
Once breakfast was over they went over every detail that was left. Everything was in order.
"Hermione, how about if we head down to the Ministry and become of age?" he asked
"Sounds great." She said
The two headed off to the Ministry. They went inside, and headed for the correct department.
"Hello" Harry said to the secretary "I'm Harry Potter and this is Hermione Granger and we would like to get permission to become of age" he said.
"Fill out this form please." She said as if it was a recording.
Name: Harry Potter
Age: 16
Birthday: July 31, 1989
(A/N: I am taking it as if he was 16 in 2005)
What are you here for: To become of age
Name: Hermione Granger
Age: 16
Birthday: September 19, 1989
(A/N: I don't know when her birthday is so I made it up.)
What are you here for: To become of age.
They handed the forms back in and she filled out the paperwork, sent an owl to the Minister who signed them and within 5 minutes, they had their forms. They were now of age.
They made one more stop in the ministry. They stopped to get their apparition license. They showed that they were of age thanks to the newly signed forms. Both passed with flying colors.
By the time they got back it was 1:00
"Harry, I need to go and do something for the wedding, and I need to go alone, I won't be back until dinner." Hermione said
"Really? That's a shame, I am going to miss you, but I too have to do something for the wedding." Harry said kissing her softly "See you at dinner?" he asked
Hermione nodded and left to go and do her thing, which left Harry to do his.
The next day, Hedwig returned with another letter from Mr. and Mrs. Granger
Harry and Hermione,
I cannot believe you would use that tone with your own mother and father! No words can describe our feeling toward your letter to us.
No more letters from you, we are disgusted.
Mr. and Mrs. Granger
"Wow, they didn't even sign it mom and dad," Hermione said "Oh, well."
Harry tore up the letter and burned it in the fire.
The months passed very fast. Hermione and the three children were fine, Harry was nervous about the wedding.
Before they knew it, it was already May. Students were released from Hogwarts June 1st, teachers stayed until June 3rd to clean and then they were free to go. That gave Harry and Hermione 20 days after the release of school to get the wedding set.
Everyone they sent an invitation to accepted except for Mr. and Mrs. Granger. Hermione thought it might be cool if they put up a cardboard picture of the two of them where they were supposed to be, and have it charmed to cry and laugh etc. at the proper times. Harry agreed.
Before they knew it, Final exams were given out, and it was June first, and the students were on their way back, with the exception of Ron, Ginny, Harry and Hermione. Ron and Ginny were given permission to stay behind with Harry and Hermione.
Over the next two days, Ron helped Harry clean out his classroom, Ginny helped Hermione do hers. Hermione had hidden her dress from Harry by shrinking it and putting it in her trunk with many spells so it would not get ruined by ink or wrinkles.
Harry had hidden the two rings in his bag with many of the same spells that Hermione had used on her dress.
Pretty soon they were on their way to the Burrow, but first Harry had to go to the Dursley's to rub it in their face.
Harry appariated to the Dursley's. He showed up inside the house. "I'm home" he said.
Uncle Vernon walked into the front walkway with a purple face "Why were you not at the ruddy train station two days ago? We stood there with all of your kind and you never appeared."
"Oh, sorry, see this year, I was a teacher and teachers get out June 3rd." he said like it was nothing.
Vernon looked like he was going to strangle him, but instead went into the kitchen "Petunia, control your nephew!"
Petunia came in and slapped him on the face for not alerting them. Harry pulled out his wand and pointed it in her face. Vernon was watching from behind "You can't do magic outside school, your not old enough yet." He said laughing
Harry pulled out the paper that said he was of age and showed it to Vernon. He looked up like he had seen a ghost. Now it was Harry's turn to laugh "See, I was given special permission to use magic" he said
"How the bloody hell did you get that?" Vernon asked.
"Well, considering that I'm getting married in twen..."
"WHAT? WHO THE HELL GAVE YOU PERMISSION TO GET MARRIED?"Petunia yelled. It was the first time he ever heard her curse.
"Well, seeing as I am of age, I get to make my decisions."
"But who would want to marry you?" Vernon asked with a face on 'you'.
Harry heard a pop behind him and Hermione appeared right on time.
"Ah, Vernon, Petunia, meet my fiancé, Hermione" Harry said
Hermione was wearing tight jeans, and a snug blue t-shirt, she looked like an ordinary muggle. Vernon and Petunia's faces dropped.
"Well, best be off Harry, don't forget we have a doctors appointment today for the babies." Hermione said, even though there was no appointment it would give them an excuse to leave and leave them shell shocked.
"WHAT BABIES?" Petunia asked
"Oh, yeah, silly me, I forgot to tell you. Hermione here is pregnant with triplets and is due in a month today."
"SHE DOESN'T LOOK PREGNANT! I think your just messing with our heads boy. Your really not getting married, and that paper is rubbish." Vernon said
"Hermione, take the charm off so we don't be late." Harry said. Hermione obayed. Her huge stomach appeared, and her jeans expanded with her stomach. Hermione put the charm back on.
"Oh, and sir, here is the ring." Hermione said putting out her hand with the diamond on it. Vernon looked at it and Petunia's mouth dropped
"How the bloody hell did you afford that? You have no money" Vernon said Petunia nodding.
"Oh, wizarding money." Harry said.
There was another pop. Lupin appeared behind them.
"Sorry to interrupt but Harry, I have found out that you are now of age, correct."
"Yeah," Harry said
"Well there is something that I must tell you, can we go into the kitchen please?" Lupin asked.
Without waiting for an answer Harry, Hermione and Lupin went into the kitchen.
They all walked into the spotless kitchen. Harry sat on a stool and Hermione sat on his lap and listened.
Lupin grinned. "Well, Harry as you know, when Sirius died he left you everything, his house, his house elf and all of his money. But, Harry ... did you ever wonder where all the money came from? From your parents I mean?"
"Yeah, I wondered, I mean, there's millions of galleons in there."
"Yes. Harry, the Potters are an extremely rich and old pureblood family. James was the only child and he inherited everything. What you currently have in your account is nothing compared to what you're going to receive when you turn seventeen." Lupin explained.
Harry looked startled. "What there's more?"
Lupin laughed. "Oh yes, Harry, there's more. You see, when your parents went into hiding, they chose a cottage owned by the Potters in Godric's Hollow, but that wasn't their home. The cottage of course was destroyed, but Potter Manor is still there."
"Potter Manor?" Harry asked dumbfounded. "I own a manor? As in like a mansion?"
Lupin grinned. "Well, more or less yes. You also own a house in France, Italy, Germany, Russia, California, British Columbia, New York, Ireland, and Scotland. Once you turn seventeen officially, six million galleons will be deposited into your account annually."
"Annually?" Harry gasped. "I'm that rich?"
"WHAT?" Uncle Vernon yelled, causing Harry to remember that they were still in the room. "HE HAS MONEY AND AFTER ALL THESE YEARS WE'VE BEEN BLOODY WELL PAYING FOR EVERYTHING! THE FOOD ON THE TABLE AND CLOTHES ON HIS BACK! BOY YOU OWE US!"
Lupin glared at Uncle Vernon. "The money belongs to Harry and besides its wizarding money, it doesn't work in your world." He said, conveniently leaving out that it could of course be changed to the proper currency. "Harry, you will get everything. Sirius left you tons of money as well, though I know that you donated most of it to the order."
Harry simply nodded. He didn't know what to say, how exactly did one react when you found out that you had more money then you could ever spend in your life. "Potter Manor? Does … is it still there?"
"Yes, its run by one extremely old house elf named Maddy. She probably will only last a couple more years, though I did tell Dobby that I think you would like having him work for you there. So Dobby and Winky went to the manor to help out." Lupin explained.
Harry nodded. "Okay … I just … wow."
"Well, that is all. Oh and by the way Congratulations, we best be off." Lupin said
"Bye guys." Harry said before disappariating
Okay I think that is enough. I didn't know how to note this but from "Lupin grinned, 'Well, Harry as you know... to "Harry nodded. 'Okay ... I just ... wow" I did not write, I stole it from Sink Into your Eyes, It's a Harry Ginny website but I loved it so much I had to take it.
In the next chapter, It will be pre-wedding, wedding, and the Manor, and Honeymoon and possibly more (wink wink) but for now this is it. I might update during the week depending on Homework etc. but if not it might be Christmas eve. But for now it is late and I have a stiff neck.
Thanks for the reviews. Keep them coming please!
