So there is probably only going to be one more chapter before the epilogue. I promise I'll try to get them out sooner. I'm sick so I have plenty of time to write more. And we are almost done with wedding planning. At least I hope we are. I don't like being stressed.

And who else can't wait for the new Gilmore Girls movies? Hopefully they come out soon. I'm rewatching the series to get my fix

Chapter 12- The Wedding We've All Been Waiting For

The next morning Harry woke up to find an empty bed. Reaching for his phone he saw that it was almost noon. Jet lag must have hit him the hardest. Slowly he got out of his extremely comfy bed. Throwing on a shirt he went down stairs. Hermione was in the living room with Teddy and Nate laying on the stomachs watching tv. Once he got closer to the living room he saw his soon to be in laws.

"Well hello there sleepy head." Hermione said standing up when she saw him. "There's coffee in the kitchen."

Nodding his head he went into the kitchen with Hermione following him. "Why are your parents here? Not that I mind, but I thought we were going to go to the court house."

"We are. But do you really think my parents will want to miss seeing their only child getting married?" Hermione asked as she watched Harry pour himself some coffee.

Taking a sip. "No your right. So did they try and talk you out of the court house marriage?"

"No they didn't. They kinda figured this was the way that we would get married. And once I told them about the party that will have a couple weeks later, they were more into the idea." Smiling as she wrapped her arms around Harry. "My mum is in full party mode."

Laughing softly. "Yeah your mum is always for a big party. Now what did they say when they saw Teddy?"

"They were surprised. But Teddy was his charming self and turned his hair to look like theirs so naturally they fell in love with him. Because who wouldn't? He is going to be a little heart breaker when he gets older."

"Well he is a son of a Marauder. We tend to be heart breakers." Harry said kissing her cheek.

Shaking her head. "Oh just go get dressed so we can go get married."

"Yes ma'ma." Harry said saluting.

As he ran back up stairs Hermione walked back into the living room. "Once Harry gets ready we will head to the court house."

Dan Granger nodded his head as he hugged his daughter. "I can't believe my little girl is getting married."

"Well you better believe it daddy." Hermione said as she buried her face into his chest. "Pretty soon I'll be Mrs. Hermione Jean Granger-Potter."

Chuckling. "Yes you will be. It'll be a mouthful but yes you will be."

"Alright I'm ready lets go get married!" Harry said running down the stairs.

Hermione walked over to Harry and took his hand. "Let's get married."

The drive to the court house was making Hermione and Harry nervously excited. They both knew that they wanted to marry each other but were still thinking that the other wasn't going to go through with the wedding. It was just the pre-wedding jitters. Everyone has them, they both want to get married. It has been a long time coming.

Dan Granger pulled into the parking garage of the court house. As they made their way up to the justice of the peace, the two love birds were holding onto each other tightly. As they finally made it to their destination they got their marriage certificate. Luckily there wasn't a line waiting for the judge to sign the papers.

Opening up the door the judge, who was in his 50s, dressed in a nice suit not a gown like you normally see judges wearing was sitting at his desk.

"Are you the two getting married?" The graying judge asked.

Nodded his head Harry pulled Hermione even closer. "Yes we are. We are ready to officially start our lives together."

"Good. Now if you two would step to my desk. I am Judge Eriksen." As the two soon to be newly weds stepped in front of his desk, he began the marriage ceremony. The two love birds were barley paying any attention to what the judge was saying. They were just staring into each others eyes.

"Harry this is the part where you say I do." Judge Eriksen said with a knowing smirk on his face.

Shaking his head, Harry smiled still looking into Hermione's eyes and said. "I do."

Turning towards Hermione. "Hermione, do you take Harry to be your husband?"

"I do." She said softly with a smile on her face.

"I now announce you husband and wife. You can kiss the bride. Cause we all know that you have been dying to do so."

Hermione's parents laughed softly as Harry and Hermione kissed. Nate and Teddy started talking about how gross kissing a girl was. How they were never ever going to do something like that.

As Harry pulled away from the kiss, from trying so hard not the laugh, turning to the boys. "Well you say that now but that is all you will want to do when you find a girl you like."

Nate shook his head. "Kiss girls is gross daddy."

Judge Eriksen laughed as he handed the marriage certificate. "You two are officially married. Probably the cutest couple I have ever seen. Other than you know me and my own wife. Been together since we were 18."

Hermione looked over at Harry and smiled ear to ear. "Yeah we are pretty adorable aren't we? Well thank you so much for marry us."

Shaking both of their hands "Oh it was not a problem. It's one of my favorite parts about the job. Have a happy marriage you two."

"Thank you again." Harry said before they all walked out of the office. Taking Hermione's hand in his. "Hey we need to get some rings."

"Well how about we go to the mall and get some. Then we can go to Lincoln Park take some pictures and go to the zoo." Emma said. "I'm sure Teddy will enjoy all those animals."

"Yeah can we go see animals?!" Teddy said with big brown eyes. "I haven't seen muggle animals before!"

Looking around, Hermione saw that no one was nearby. "Good then we will go to the zoo. And Teddy you can't call muggles, muggles when we are out in public. Unless we are in the wizard community. Do you understand?"

Nodding his head Teddy said sorry and held onto Hermione's hand. Hermione looked over at Harry and smiled softly. Both knowing that it is going to take Teddy to adjust to the muggle world.

The family got into the car and found a custom wedding band store close to Lincoln Park. Since money wasn't so much of a factor for Harry, he told Hermione to pick whatever her heart desired. Hermione found a 14k white gold band with 2mm diamonds around. While Harry just picked a simple sliver wedding band for himself. Luckily for the both of them they were able to take it home with them. As neither needed to get them resized. Harry paid for the rings after they put the rings on.

"Now its officially official." Harry said smiling ear to ear.

Nodding her head. "Yes it is. Now lets go meet our family. And take those boys to the park. They have been so good today. They deserve to have a treat."

"I think an even better treat would be to have them stay at Grandma and Grandpa's so mum and dad can celebrate." Harry said wiggling his eyebrows.

Rolling her eyes. "You are ridiculous. You know that right?"

Nodding his head. "I do. But you still married me. So I think that makes you the more ridiculous one."

"Come on smart ass we got to meet our family at Jamba Juice." Hermione said taking his hand.

As the couple found their family, they began their journey to the zoo. Emma and Dan took pictures, which Hermione could charm into moving pictures if they wanted too. Teddy and Nate were enjoying looking at all the animals. Harry could tell Teddy was trying really hard not to change anything about his appearance.

Looking over at his in laws. Harry smiled at the family he married into. They were the best parents anyone good ask for. Hermione was lucky to have them. They never pushed her do something that she didn't want to. Always supported anything Hermione wanted to do. Even if it was getting rid of all the memories they had of their only child. Luckily they still travel around the globe, or else wiping their memories would have been worthless. As the Death Eaters knew where they were in Australia.

"What's on your mind son?" Dan asked looking over concerned.

Shaking his head "It's nothing. Just happy we are all safe."

"Do you still have nightmares about the war?"

"Yeah. They don't come as often. Nate had a bad dream about it. Because he somehow saw a picture of Tom. Which then in turn, I had a bad dream." Harry said looking over at Nate. "I hope that they don't ever have to deal with lunatic like I had too."

"Well with a dad like you, they will be just fine." Dan said clapping Harry on the back.

"Oh there you two are. We've been looking all over for you. Dan the boys are going to sleep over at our house tonight." Emma said as she, Hermione and the boys walked over to Dan and Harry.

Smiling he picked up Nate. "Oh we are going to have so much fun. We have to show Teddy the ropes on how we do our sleepovers. Don't we Nate?"

Nodding his head. "UH huh. It's going to be so much fun."

"Well than let's get going. WE have a fun night ahead of us." Emma said taking Teddy's hand.

Harry and Hermione said goodbye to their sons. "Be good for Grandma and Grandpa you two. I don't want to hear that you were naughty, if I do no TV for a week. Deal?"

"Deal." Nate and Teddy said.

Harry and Hermione got a taxi to take home. When they were almost home Harry looked over to Hermione. "So since we're married now. We can start on baby number 2?"

"Well I stopped taking the pill if that helps the decision." Hermione said looking over at Harry.

Nodding his head. He payed the taxi driver and they ran into their home.
