Chapter 3: Neville Engagement.

The next afternoon Hermione set out the tea set on the coffee table along with cookies and cake. Neville was coming by with his fiancée in a few minutes. Ron had just come downstairs from putting the twins down for their nap, when the doorbell rang. He opened it and their stood Neville with a blue eyed, blonde hair girl. Ron ushered them in and Neville gave Hermione a hug and Ron a handshake.

"It's great to see you two again, where are the twins?" he asked.

"They are sleeping right now." Hermione answered as she turned toward the girl. "I'm Herm…"

She stopped in the middle of her sentence. She did a double take on the girl next to Neville. She studied her hard. Big blue eyes…dirty blonde hair…and she knew that smile anywhere.

"L-l-Luna?"

"Hi guys, long time no see."

Sure enough, standing before them was the one and only Luna Lovegood. About two years after Hogwarts she had traveled to the different schools in the world with her publicist. Luna was a well-known publicist. Hermione didn't know she was back in London.

"How are you doing?" Hermione exclaimed hugging her.

"I'm great, I've been back in London for about a year. All the schools I visited were amazing. But of course Hogwarts was the best. How are your twins? Neville told me about them."

"William is such a sound sleeper, but Anna is a different story. She's up every three hours like clockwork. But they are the joys of my life." She said.

"Hey, what about me?" Ron said acting insulted.

"You're a git who happens to be the sunshine of my life."

"Thank you," he laughed as he kissed her.

They continued talking about how Neville and Luna got together over tea and cake when they heard the twins crying. Ron went up to get them, while Hermione stayed with their guests.

"How old are the twins?" Luna asked.

"Three months. And here they are."

Ron brought over the twins. Neville took William and Luna took Anna.

"Oh my goodness!" Luna exclaimed, "They are adorable!"

"Thank you," Ron said. "They take after their mother."

"Oh Ron…" she said.

William had his father's red hair and his mother's eyes. Anna was all Hermione though.

"Did you hear," Ron began, "George is getting married."

"Oh really?" Neville replied. "Anyone I know?"

"No, she's from America. Her name is Lorelei, and she is perfect for him. Kind, funny, sweet, and she keeps him in line." Hermione answered.

"That's wonderful," Luna smiled, "Neville, did you tell them your good news?"

Ron and Hermione looked eagerly at Neville who blushed and finally said, "I just got accepted to be the new Herbology teacher at Hogwarts."

Ron and Hermione shouted their congrats and gave Neville hugs and well wishes. After everything calmed down they had a nice quiet lunch. After about an hour, Luna and Neville decided it was time to go.

"Thank you for a wonderful afternoon," Luna said.

"Oh we enjoyed it! Do not be a stranger…either one of you." Hermione said.

"Oh we won't, same goes for you two." Neville said, "We will send you a wedding invitation soon."

After saying their good-byes and giving more hugs, the two lovebirds headed off, hand in hand.

"How about that," Hermione said. "Who would have ever thought those two would end up together?"

"I know one thing for sure," Ron said.

"What's that?"

Ron scooped his wife up and said, "I always knew we would end up together."

Hermione kissed her husband as he spun her around.
