Chapter 18

The Begining

6 years later.

Bill and Fluer had gotten married first. Fluer had tried to convince Kerri to get married at the same time and hold a double wedding but Kerri refused. Then Ron and Hermione, Kerri and Fred, Harry and Ginny held a tripple wedding. It took Kerri, Hermione, and Ginny lots of arguing but they finally decided on colors all of them liked and who the bridesmaids were. In attendence were several of their fellow Gryffindors and none of the Slytherins bothered to come. Hermione was slightly upset as she had sent former Slytherins who weren't in jail invitations. Kerri couldn't have cared less and neither did Ginny. Mrs. Weasley of course cooked for the wedding and it was hosted at the Burrow's old location. Arthur was getting contracts for the house to be redone and it would be done much bigger and larger now that they had substantial income. They had also expanded the property so the children could build houses on it as well.

Fred and Kerri were the first to have children. They had two twins a boy and a girl. Harry and Ginny had one next. Thankfully not twins. And a boy. Hermione and Ron had one little redhead. A girl. Bill and Fluer had a spoiled part veela little girl. And Remus and Tonks had a little boy who had so far no signs of his father. They'd find out if being a werewolf was genetic or not. All though he did have some odd qaulities about the door.

Mrs. Weasley opened the door to the Burrow. The same old sign was out front but it was a five bedroom house with two floors and a better kitchen. Arthur was coming home from work. Harry and Ginny were the first to arrive. They carried they're little girl Lilly in their arms. Well Ginny was holding her. "Let me take that dear."

In the sitting room a large table full of food was set out. Mrs. Weasley had decorated the room for the open house of the new Burrow built. All their children would have rooms whenever they needed a private place or even to bring their families to stay in. "Hey mom." Ginny said giving her a kiss. "Hello dear how's work at the office going?" Mrs. Weasley asked. "Fine dad was just behind us so he should come home soon too." Ginny said. "How's working under your father going?" Mrs. Weasley asked. "It's good mum dad let's me take breaks and things to go see Harry and watch Lilly." Ginny said. "I've got something for all my grandchildren." Mrs. Weasley said. "Is it a Weasley sweater?" Harry wondered. "And some toys too." Mrs. Weasley said as Ginny and Harry exchanged a grin. "Molly I'm home and look who I've got with me." "I want presents." A voice demanded. Fluer and Bill walked in holding their one year old up with their arms. "Just a minute love April." Mrs. Weasley said. "Now." April demanded. "Wait. You just have to wait." Fluer told her. "Hello Arthur dear everyone grab a bite to eat don't be strangers." Mrs. Weasley said. Harry was already at the buffet table when he went in. Ron said a quick hello to his mother and made a beline for Harry. "Ah freedom." Ron said stuffing his face with food. "Ronald I heard that you're puttiing Joey to bed." Hermione snapped. Ron moaned. Harry laughed and Ginny snickered. Hermione and Ginny sat talking on the couch together when Kerri arrived with Fred. Behind them was George and he had bought his fiance Lila Sumners from the Quidditch department who worked with Kerri.

Arthur put his arm around his wife. "A toast." He said. "Hear hear." Harry said. "Harry he hasn't even said what he's toasting." Ginny said teasingly. "Yes well anything your father says I agree with." Harry said. "Suck up." George teased. "A toast to the Burrow and the redecoration of the former Black now Potter home." "I will most definetely drink to that." George said.

The party lasted well past midnight. Tired couples crashed in different rooms at the Burrow. George and Lila left along but Kerri and Fred stayed the night. Kerri, Harry, Hermione, Ginny, Ron, Melissa, Seamus, Dean and Tonks all were on a blanket outside. Their children asleep and tucked in bed they sat staring at the stars.

"You know we're very really lucky." Harry said. "Hear hear." Kerri teased him. They all laughed. "Ah this is the life." Tonks said. "Well it can't all be peaceful and quiet." Hermione said. "Yeah not with Harry and Ron." Ginny added. "We'll find some other punk whose trying to ruin us and we'll kick his ass." Ron said. "Love the confidence or is that more ego?" Kerri asked. "More ego." Hermione said. "Hey I put Joey to bed." Ron protested. "That's your job dear." Hermione said. "What about your job?" Ron demanded. Hermione, Ginny, Tonks and Kerri glared at him. "Not helping ya there mate." Seamus said. "I agree with whatever my sister says." Harry said. "Suck up." Ron snickered. Tonks smacked him playfully on the shoulder. "Well night boys I"m going to bed." Tonks went inside. The others fell asleep on the blanket.
THE END.
