Chapter 20

Since Madam Clearwater declared Rose of age and her betrothal to Domi finalised, Rose had practically moved into Domi's prefect apartment despite Rose, like Scorpius being a Ravenclaw prefect.

If their parents were known for having Slytherin-Gryffindor relationships, their own was being characterised Slytherin-Ravenclaw relationships like Uncle Theo and Aunt Luna…

Scorpius, Rose and Gideon were the Ravenclaws in relationships with Slytherins that immediately came to mind.

They spent much of their time doing revision after and between classes, which of course left little time for intimacy beyond cuddling…

The moment they both finished their last NEWT exam; Magical Creatures for Teddy and Ancient Runes for Scorpius they both celebrated by commandeering Andromeda's office floo and flooing to Grimmauld where they celebrated with lots of sex…

XoooooX

They only returned to Hogwarts for prefect rounds and Teddy's Head Boy duties…

However when the morning of June first dawned, those no longer were applicable.

They received their NEWT scores last week and they had all passed beyond exceptionally so Andromeda couldn't complain thank Salazar.

They both slept in, rising at eleven to eat and bathe before they dressed in dressrobes for their graduation.

Like their parents' no one graduated in their Hufflepuff or Slytherin robes…

Rather they had special dressrobes that had the Hogwarts' crest instead…

Teddy had a short-sleeved silver shirt, black trousers and a teal tie to match his hair beneath his light summer robe.

Scorpius had on a robin's egg blue shirt, grey trousers and a silver tie.

They both had dragon hide boots with a slight heel thanks to Uncle Charlie…

He liked to use his won dragon hide to make gifts for his nieces and nephews…

Then they Apparated from the front garden to the gate of Hogwarts where the anti-Apparition ward ended.

They met their friends and extended family on the front lawn where the graduation was to be held.

Teddy joined Scorpius in the front row of the Seventh Years where Pari sat on Scorpius' other side.

Vivi's cousin Alexis would graduate tomorrow from Durmstrang, Uncle Percy's eldest son Aubry, whom they all called Bree had graduated last year.

After welcoming them, Headmistress Septima Vector called Teddy up to make his Head Boy speech and then it was Pari's turn.

Next Headmistress Vector called the Seventh Years up by their names in order of academic standing.

So Teddy was called up first.

"Thabit Remus Lupin-Black." Headmistress Vector called out.

His grandmother Andromeda stood up as her assistant to hand them their diplomas.

Next was Scorpius.

"Scorpius Hyperion Malfoy."

Scorpius had inherited his deceased grandfather's confidence as well as Lucius' fastidiousness. Yet he had Andromeda's pragmatism and self-determination of his own destiny.

Pari was called up next.

"Parisa Clarine Dearborn."

Pari made her way up to the platform to accept her diploma.

After them it was Mauve Montague, Livia Flitwick, Cleo Greengrass, Laria Rosier, Lucy Vector, Blythe Burbage, Dione Meliflua, Gwen Brown, Arista and Leontia Runcorn as well as others.

There were far more witches in their year surprisingly…

After the diplomas there were speeches from the current Head of the Board of Governors, Aunt Luna, which was her usual type of strange, and the current Prime Minster Percy Weasley were invited to speak.

Once the official speeches were over, the Headmistress thanked them for coming and left the platform to embrace her granddaughter Lucy.

Then their dad Harry announced that they had reservations at Antonio's for their largest private room.

With the size of the Prince, Potter-Malfoy and Weasley extended family they needed it…
