A/N: I just finished my first week of high school. I got to say that I do not like it too much. I have like no classes with any friends and am instead stuck with the higher grades, mostly seniors. More to the point, now that school has started updates will be less frequent. I hope that you will be patient with me for only updating like one or maybe twice a week. I will try my hardest to get them up as quick as possible. Thanks.

I'm not supposed to be answering reviews so I will make a few general notes.

I see Hermione as a type of person that will allow her children to watch an hour or so of T.V. a day and only with her permission. Also I think that she allows her child a night at a chosen fast food restaurant one night a week.

I want tell everyone that I will not flat out tell anyone who the father is. I will promise that he will enter the story soon, but there will be a little twist.

I was glad that some of you were able to identify the house in which the kids would be in, but I will add some more characteristics in this chapter that might change some opinions. At the moment I'm not sure whether or not I will write about the triplets in Hogwarts.

I loved all your reviews. Thank you so much. I love you all.

"Hey Ginny"

"Hermione?"

"Miss Me?" asked a sly smiling Hermione.

Ginny looked at her long lost friend one more time before she fell to the floor with a loud thump. Quickly Hermione set a snickering Marshal beside an equally amused Phineas and went to Ginny. Beside her, Hermione could hear Aaliyah muttering everything she had ever learned about reviving an unconscious person in order to find the quickest and easiest way of awaking the red headed woman. Finally pulling out her wand, Hermione revived Ginny and helped her to her feet.

Once on her feet, Ginny launched herself into the arms of the woman that she and half of the wizarding community had feared they would never see again. After taking a step back, Ginny studied her best friend and the three small children that currently accompanied her. Looking at the three of the children, she came to the conclusion that they had to be Hermione's children. The two boys, who at the moment were smirking, were almost identical. They had a mix of brown and blond hair that curled at the ends, gray eyes that she could have sworn she had seen on someone else and a pointed nose. She also noticed that they had inherited Hermione's lips and her figure. The girl was a bit different than her brothers. She had straight blond hair that fell to her waist and sharp cheek bones. Though she did share the same starling gray eyes and pointed nose. Already she could tell that this little girl would have no trouble with the guys when it came to dating. All three children, she thought, were absolutely adorable.

Hermione it seemed hadn't changed that much. The only difference that Ginny could find was that her hair had turned a redish-brown color and it had lost some of its fuzziness and now fell to her waist in soft ringlets.

"Come on in, Hermione" Ginny said her voice still filled with glee. She couldn't believe that her best friend was actually here after five years.

Once inside, Ginny led Hermione and her children towards the living room. Just as Hermione and Aaliyah were entered the living room doorway, a bucket of ice cold water came crashing down upon their heads. Hearing the screams of shock coming from her friend's mouth Ginny turned around and knew instantly what had happened.

"SIRIUS NATHANEL POTTER! COME HERE THIS INSTANT!" she yelled and within thirty seconds a small boy with unruly black hair and bright blue eyes entered the room, laughing uncontrollably. He didn't seem to care how much trouble he got in, all he cared about was whether or not his prank worked and judging by the screams it clearly had.

"You think this is funny? You think that drenching one of my friends is funny? Well let me tell you –" Ginny began to scream, but was interrupted as Hermione began to go into fits of laughter.

"Sirius? Well he does live up to his name now, doesn't he?" Hermione asked while still laughing.

Seeing her friend laugh only caused Ginny to begin laughing as well, meaning that her son would get away with his actions this time. After Hermione was able to control herself, she muttered a spell to dry off Ali and then turned to look for her sons. She spotted them in the corner whispering with Sirius, knowing those two they were probably planning pranks more risky than the one she had just experienced.

Leaving her sons to chat, Hermione picked up Ali and walked over to the couch. She placed her daughter on her lap and turned her attention to Ginny, who had just taken a seat on the opposite couch. She was about to say something when a little girl with red hair came bouncing into the room quickly followed by a black haired boy of the same age. Seeing that Hermione's attention was at the door, Ginny looked at her children and smiled.

"Hermione, you have already met Sirius, but I would like to introduce you to my other children. The girl is Lily Marie Potter and her twin brother is James Arthur Potter." Ginny said with a small smile on her face.

"Lily and James? As in Harry's parents?" a shocked Hermione.

"Yup, Harry and I decided after the twins were born that we should name them after his parents. After all, they were born on Halloween two years ago. We decided that the names fit the children because they each looked like Harry's mum or dad." Explained the still smiling Ginny.

"Ginny, I always knew that you and Harry would end up together. You two are just so perfect for each other. I knew that you two would stay together after school and create the big family that the two of you always wanted. I'm just sorry that I wasn't there for the your first and second pregnancies." Hermione said sadly as she pulled one of the suitcases out of her coat pocket. She carefully enlarged it, opened it up and placed it on the floor. Ali jumped of her mother's lap and started digging through the suitcase of toys to find something of hers to play with. It wasn't long until the Potter joined her on the floor and together the three children began to play as their mothers talked to one another.

"Thanks, Hermione! We actually got married about two years ago! We waited awhile because we didn't want to get married without you there, but after a two years with no word from you, we finally understood that we shouldn't wait any longer for you because you weren't coming back." Said Ginny whisper the last bit.

"I'm so sorry Gin! I wanted to answer your letters, I really did! But I just couldn't!" explained a Hermione as tears began to ascend from her eyes.

"Mum? Momma what's wrong? Asked Finny when he noticed his mother's tears. Next to him, Marshal stood and headed towards his mother. Reaching his destination, he climbed in her lap and gave her a hug. Even as he hugged his mother, Marshal faced Ginny and gave her an evil look knowing that she was the one that had made his mother cry.

"It's alright you three, nothing's wrong. Momma's fine" Hermione told her children as she hugged Mars and place a kiss on the foreheads of Finny and Ali.

Ginny was just about to question Hermione about her whereabouts over the years and why she had returned just now, when she heard two loud pops come from the kitchen.

"Ginny? Kids? We're home!" they heard Ron shout.

"We also picked up Becca since her father is going away for the week due to ministry business." Harry called. At this announcement Sirius quickly fled to the kitchen to greet the girl that he had known most of his life.

About a minute later, Harry and Ron entered the room stopping dead in their tracks when they noticed the woman currently sitting on the couch.

"Hermione?" asked Ron shocked, but happy to see the woman he considered a sister and the woman he thought was gone forever.

"Ginny?" Harry asked turning to his wife for an explanation.

"Harry! Ron!" cried Hermione, overjoyed to finally see her best friends again.

"Mars!" cried the slightly annoyed child.

"Finny!" cried the other boy, using the same tone as his brother.

"Now we all know each other!" both children replied sarcastically.

"Huh?" cried both Harry and Ron cried in confusion.

A/N: Again I'm so sorry for not updating until now. There really is only one excuse. School has piled me with so much work. I have come to learn that I am to receive four writing pieces a week and that leaves me very little time to update this story. I will try hard to get another chapter out soon.

To all my reviewers – Again, thank you so much! I'm glad that you like the story so far! I love you all!

Please review this chapter and let me know what you thought of it.

In case any of you are confused a made a list of the children for you.

Hermione and : Aaliyah (Ali), Marshal (Mars), and Phineas (Finny)

Harry and Ginny: Sirius, Lily, and James

Ron and Hannah (Abbot-Weasley): Have one child. I think it is going to be a girl. I believe that I am going to call her Shyanne
