Life Continued

The sun shone in through the stain glass windows onto her face as she walked into the building with girls behind her holding up her train from her dress. A veil was covering her face, but it was still visible. Her bright hair glowed like the sun as she walked down the isle, smiling at people as she did so, but only really having one person in her view. The bump that stuck out of her stomach didn't make her look any less of a beauty; in fact, it made her even more beautiful. One silent tear of joy fell down her cheek and onto the floor in front of her as she stopped beside him.

The vicar began to talk, welcoming people to the place of worship and love. Mrs Weasley was crying in her seat on the front row, the sound echoing around the whole room. And then it began. There were flashes of bright light as cameras took photos from the back of the room while they said their 'I do's'. And all the while, whilst saying their vows, his stare never left her smiling eyes.

And then the ceremony was over, much quicker than expected, the hall erupted in applause, shouts of joy and sobs of happiness. The flashes were quicker as they walked down the isle hand in hand, never to be separated again. Three hours later they were due to be off, on the very first adventure that they could share together. Life was an awfully big adventure.

The half hour journey back to the Burrow went quickly, and before he knew it, the two of them were bombarded by congratulations and hugs. The first hour was definitely taken up by seeing people he hadn't seen for years, but the two most important people were yet to be seen. And at last, he found them.

"Mate!" Ron yelped, running up to Harry and giving him a hug.

"Oh Harry," Hermione said, tears filling her eyes, "It was beautiful, just beautiful!"

"Thanks Hermione," Harry replied, giving her a hug.

He looked down to the ground and saw a small boy holding onto his mothers hand as people moved quickly around him.

"And you!" Harry said loudly, picking up the boy, "You behaved so well didn't you?"

Ron and Hermione smiled at him as he continued, "Thank you very much," He told their son, who yawned sleepily at him.

"Aww, you're tired, aren't you James?" Hermione said, taking her son from him.

James nodded slowly at her, rubbing his eyes.

"And so he should be! Too late for a two year old to be awake," Ron stated, holding James' hand.

"You can put him to sleep in mine and Ginny's room if you want," Harry suggested kindly, and with that they walked off up the stairs and out of sight.

It was only a matter of minutes before Ginny found him and hugged him tightly. "I just saw Ron and Hermione take James up stairs," She said.

"Yeah, he was tired," Harry replied.

"Well, Ron's always been a tired boy!" Ginny laughed.

"The baby's been kicking," She said after a moments pause.

"Really?" He asked, putting his hand to her stomach, "Are you feeling ok?"

Ginny smiled and placed her hand over his, "Better than ever," She said. "Is it good to see Ron and Hermione again?" She asked.

"Yeah," He replied, "Even though we saw them two months ago it feels like I haven't seen them for longer than anyone else here!"

And it was true. Harry saw his best friends at least once a month, but they had a child to take care of and every time he saw them if felt like a shorter and shorter day. When they first moved away after their wedding almost three years ago, Harry had found it hard to cope. He was completely lost without them. They'd come back after their honeymoon to give everyone presents and say goodbye properly, but when they left, Harry broke down in front of them. So Ron made a promise to him that they would see him at least once a month, and he had kept to his promise. It soon got easier for Harry, as Ginny was still there. And a month didn't really take that long to pass anyway.

"It's going to be strange isn't it..." Ginny jumped into his thoughts, apparently reading his mind, "Not seeing them every month."

"Yeah…" Harry replied, still in a sort of daze.

"But I'm used to not seeing my brothers!" She said loudly.

Harry made a noise as if to say 'Yeah… whatever' while he watched Ron and Hermione walk back down the stairs.

"Harry!" Ginny shouted at him, "Aren't you happy that we're married?"

"Of course I am!" Harry replied quickly, with no word of a lie, "I've never been happier of anything else in my life. I'm just going to miss them, that's all…"

"I'm sorry," Ginny said guiltily.

"No, it's ok. I should have learnt to live without them a long time ago, but they've been with me for over ten years now, and it's just weird thinking they won't be there to help me."

"I will be," Ginny said comfortingly, kissing him on the cheek.

"Yeah…" Harry said, bending down and kissing her soft lips.

"Leave it for the honeymoon guys!" Ron's voice made them laugh behind them. It was so funny that Ron had matured so much since getting married, and yet he still came out with stupid little comments sometimes.

"I'm going to thank people for coming, Harry," Ginny said, "And then I'll get ready to go, ok?"

Harry nodded and watched her walk off. He then turned around to see Hermione with tears in her eyes again.

"It's wonderful Harry, just wonderful!" She cried.

"Bloody hell, Hermione, stop crying!" Ron said sarcastically at her.

He gave Harry a sideward's glance and they both said, "Women!" exasperatedly under their breath.

"Do you want to go outside for a bit Harry?" Ron offered five minutes later.

"I'll go and find Ginny then," Hermione said, but Harry grabbed her arm before she left.

"You come too!" He said pleadingly.

Hermione smiled gently at him and the three of them walked outside the house, where there were still many people on the grass in the warm summer evening. They decided to walk a little further out of the garden so that they could be alone for a while before Harry had to go.

"You looking forward to going away then?" Ron asked as they sat on a bench next to a bright green bush with purple flowers blooming off it, "You've never been out of the country have you?"

"No, I haven't," Harry replied, "I'm a bit scared actually."

"Why?" Hermione asked.

"Well, not of going out of the country, but going away forever…" Harry sadly.

"Oh Harry," Hermione said, putting a hand on his shoulder, "Why?"

Harry looked at the two of them and her answer was plainly on his face.

"Mate, you'll know where to find us, all of the time," Ron reassured him.

"Yes, we're always here for you," Hermione smiled.

"That's what you said when you two left," Harry let out a small laugh.

"And I was telling the truth wasn't I?" Hermione said, "We're here now, and always will be."

"Besides, you don't need us anymore," Ron chipped in, "We killed Voldemort a long time ago now, mate."

"That's not all I had you with me for!" Harry said quickly, worried that his best friend had always thought he was just using him.

"No I know it's not!" Ron replied even quicker, worry on his face as well.

"I think what Ronald means…" Hermione said calmly, "Is that you got so used to having us around, that it just feels strange these days when we're not there. And you never really needed our help in the first place, you just got used to it."

Harry nodded his head slowly, though he was still confused about what the two of them meant. And he felt quite stupid for it. He was beginning to feel like a child would on their first day of school, not wanting to leave the two people that had looked after him for so many years. But Harry was not a child, he was a grown man with a new wife, and he was out here with his two best friends!

"Harry," Hermione concluded, "You'll be ok. You still have way over half of your life ahead of you, and you'll love every second. From the moment your baby is born until their wedding day and beyond!"

"And you don't have to worry about your children having the same fate as you, because there are no dark wizards left to do that to them," Ron said matter-of-factly, "You killed him."

"That's right," Hermione said, nodding her head, "In effect Harry, you've saved your child's life before he or she was even thought about… And ours."

"You're the most powerful wizard in the world and always have been. Because your parents loved you. And my sister loves you. Merlin knows why…" Ron added under his breath, to which the three of them started to laugh.

Harry sighed but smiled at the same time, "It's going to be weird without you two," He said, shaking his head and standing up.

"And it will be weird without you too!" Hermione said, giving him a hug.

"But we've always got each other," Ron concluded, wrapping his arm around Harry's other side.

"It's ok," Harry smiled as he saw Ginny walking up the path to greet them, "You two can have each other…"

"Hi," Ginny said as she reached them.

"I've got her," Harry finished.

"You ready to go?" Ginny asked, taking hold of Harry's hand.

"Yeah," He said, smiling still at Ron and Hermione, who smiled back. "Give me a minute and I'll come in to say goodbye to everyone."

Ginny nodded and walked back inside, leaving them alone once again.

"I'll err," Harry stuttered, trying not to make himself sound to sad, "I'll say goodbye here, 'cause I won't get a chance inside."

Hermione's eyes welled up with tears as she hugged Harry tighter than ever before. "I'll miss you, Harry…"

"Not as much as I'll miss you," Harry replied as he hugged her and stroked her hair.

"But it won't be that long until we see you, will it?" She asked sadly.

"Oh I don't know…" Harry said, shaking his head, "Could be over two weeks!" He laughed.

Hermione laughed and said, "Promise me you'll write!"

"Hermione, he's got his own life now," Ron said, "You didn't write that much when we were first married, did you?"

"And did you really expect me to?" Harry laughed a little bit while Hermione smiled weakly and shook her head.

"Harry!" Ginny called from the house down the path, "Hurry up!"

Harry looked at her and smiled saying 'I'll be there in a minute'.

He turned back to Hermione and said, "Don't cry Hermione, or you'll set me off!"

"I've only ever seen you cry once," Ron said incredulously.

"Where have you been half my life?!" Harry laughed, though he was the only one.

"Bye Harry," Hermione said sadly, embracing him in a hug one last time.

He hugged her back and turned to Ron.

"I… Just…" Ron couldn't seem to find the words to say, and neither could Harry; so they just stood looking at each other for what seemed like hours, before a single tear rolled down Ron's face, the first Harry had ever seen. And that really did set him off. He cried a little bit before trying to breathe deeply and stop it.

"I'll be ok, won't I?" He asked quietly.

"Yeah mate, you'll be fine," Ron replied, giving his friend a hug.

Harry nodded his head and started to walk off towards the Burrow, where Ginny was waiting patiently by the door. He went in and said his goodbyes to everyone, and a few people that he expected he'd never see again in his entire life. But they weren't the people that mattered. By the time he and Ginny walked back outside, everyone was there, waiting to throw flying confetti over their heads and shout their 'good lucks' and goodbyes. But as he walked, Harry could still see them; Ron and Hermione, both crying, hugging and waving at him.

"Wait," He said to Ginny, running over to them.

"Harry!" Ginny ran behind him.

"Take a picture," Harry told her when standing next to his best friends.

"What?"

"Please!"

Ginny took a camera from someone near to her and took a picture of the three crying figures and Harry took it as soon as it came out. He, Ron and Hermione all wiped their tears away and started to smile up at him through the paper; laughing together as they always did. Harry folded it up and put it in his pocket.

Later, when he was alone in his room, he would take it out, and put it with the pile of pictures he owned. One of his parents, one of Ginny, and too many to count of the trio. Over one from each year. Having those pictures, he knew he could start his life with Ginny and not worry about a thing. Because Ron and Hermione were always there with him.
