Chapter 4

It was the afternoon before the party and James and Harry were waiting on Sirius and Lily.

"James tell your sister to hurry up." Harry said as he looked at his watch.

"LILY GET YOUR FAT ASS DOWN HERE!" yelled James.

WHACK

"OW! What the bloody hell was that for?" James asked rubbing his head.

"That was for calling your sister fat." Harry said

WHACK

"And that was for not doing what I asked." Harry said.

"You said tell her to hurry up not go tell her to get up." James said smiling.

"Well, I'm ready" said Sirius coming down the stairs "Where's Lily?"

"Getting ready" James said rolling his eyes.

"Alright, I'm ready" Lily said coming down the stairs. In what Harry thought was the world's tightest smallest and shortest black dress.

"Your Grandmother is going to kill me." Harry said looking at how beautiful she looked.

"Why does it look bad?" asked Lily searching franticly all over her dress to see if there was something wrong with it.

"Oh let me go change" she said walking back up the stairs.

"NO" came the voices of the three men.

"Lily you look beautiful. I just said that because you look very grown-up that's all." Harry said.

Hoping to god that she wouldn't go change. He was afraid to find out what would happen if they did not get there before Lily's idiot got there.

Idiot was Harry's new name for Dean. Well, because he was an idiot.

"Alright let's go. James you apparate with Sirius and Lily you apparate with me." Harry instructed.

"I thought we were using the floo?" James said.

"Come on James." Sirius said grabbing James and apparating to The Burrow.

"Come on Lily." Harry said holding out his hand.

Lily took it and with a POP they were gone.

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

"Dad where are we?" Lily asked as the arrived at a place Lily thought was beautiful, But not The Burrow.

"We're at your mother's grave" Harry said feeling so close to his wife yet so far away.

"When your mum knew she was going to die she decided to start writing letters to you kids. And buying things for you as well. All these things were only for certain occasions in your life. This is one of those times. Your mother wrote you a letter and got you something." He handed her a velvet box "I don't know what's in there or what the letter says. So, I'll leave you here for awhile. Don't rush we have at least an hour before we need to go."

"Okay" Lily said fighting back the tears.

Harry walked of along the trail around his wife's grave.

"Ginny, Gin come here, I've got something to ask you about."

Harry had inherited this piece of land from his parents. He and Ginny loved going there together.

"Ginny will you marry me?" Harry asked her as they sat in the hammock Harry had put up for them.

"Yes!" Ginny said "Oh Harry, I love you. I love that you chose here to propose to me."

They had stayed there for awhile. Talking about all their dreams and hopes for the future. And just enjoying each others company.

"You know when I die I want to be buried here." Ginny said randomly.

"Well we're only just engaged. Are you already that sick of me?" he teased her.

"No, silly. It's just that other than being in your arms this is the only other place I feel safe." She said in all seriousness.

"Alright, when you die, which I hope will not be in my lifetime, you can be buried here." Harry said holding her tighter than he had before…

Harry thought about this while he sat in the exact hammock he and Ginny had sat in all those years ago.

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

Lily sat against her mother's headstone and read.

My Dear Lily,

How are you? I guess this is kind of weird. Huh? If you're reading this that means you're dating someone. Also that your dad has gone mental and attacked him or something. Well, trust me he and any or all of your uncles that helped him only did it cause they love you kid. I love you too. So, have fun with this guy and be safe when you do "stuff". Try to go easy on your dad. But, if he keeps it up. Remind him of when I dated Dean Thomas and tell him I have given you permission to do everything and more than what I did with Dean. (So long as you're safe). Remember I love you.

Your Mum

Lily cried as she opened the velvet box to reveal a necklace with a miniature picture of Ginny playing with Lily and James and her father in the background. Lily sat there for how long no one knows. Her father came and got her and they left for The Burrow.

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

Harry and Lily arrived just before Dean. After Dean had been introduced to everyone they all sat down and had dinner. Bill and Fleur were there with their son Jaq Fredrick Weasley who had just turned sixteen. Percy and his wife were there with there son three year old "Ronnie" Percival Ronald Weasley who they had just adopted from a magical tribe in Africa.

Fred and George were there neither was seeing anyone at the time. Charlie was there with is son Georgie who was starting school that year. Charlie and his wife had been divorced for about four years. Ron was there with some model or something like that. Hermione and Remus were there. Bill had not been able to claiming to be "sick" because he couldn't bear to see Lily and Dean together anymore. Dean and all of the guys got along well.

After dinner everyone scattered around. Harry and Sirius were sent to get some stuff for Mrs. Weasley. James and Jaq were told to keep an eye on Ronnie and Georgie. And Lily and Dean went to the broom closet where they were making out until…

"Dean?" Lily panted.

"What" Dean asked a little distracted.

"Did you Know that out parents dated?" Lily asked

"Of course" Dean said still distracted "that's why we're datin Dad and I thought it'd be a good laugh."

"WHAT?" Lily screamed

In the back yard six heads turned and ran to the broom closet.

"Shit I shouldn't 've said that." Dean said he had been so "distracted" that he let his secret slip.

Charlie wrenched off the door.

Fred and George picked Dean up took him outside and pinned him to the wall.

"What did you do to our niece?" Percy asked.

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

"Dad, Sirius you better hurry the guys heard Lily yell and went to get Dean. I don't know what they're gonna do." James said running up to his dad as soon as he got back.

"Shit" Harry said walking to where he heard all of them. Sirius following him.

"Now Dean you've made our niece cry." Fred said brandishing his wand.

Bill and Charlie had taken over holding Dean. While Remus went to console the hysterical Lily.

"We don't like it when our niece cries." George said "Do you know why we don't like it when our niece cries?"

Dean didn't answer.

"She's our little girl. Little girls shouldn't have to cry or need to cry." Fred answered

"Now Dean this is going to hurt you a lot. But… we're going to enjoy it so, don't you worry." George said pulling out his wand.

"George!" Harry yelled "All you! Put your wands down!"

"Dean go home!" Sirius said.

Dean ran to the house and flooed home ASAP.

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

Harry talked to Fred, George, Bill, Charlie and Percy who explained that they heard Lily scream and ran.

"You know they were in the broom closet. Harry you know that's where James, Georgie, and Jaq "made." George said.

"Alright, alright. Does anyone know why she screamed?" Harry asked

They all shook there heads no.

"Does anyone know where she is?" Sirius asked.

"Remus went into find out what happened because we were all busy getting Dean. She must still be with Remus." Percy answered.

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

"He only dated me as a joke." Lily sobbed as her Uncle Remus held her "I was going to have sex with him. And he was only dating me as a joke." Lily sobbed.

"It's alright Lily. It's going to be alright." Remus said worried about what she had just told him.

Harry came into the broom closet…
