Chapter 2

The next morning they were up early, Harry couldn't stop playing with his wedding ring while Hermione acted like it was just another part of her body.

Harry asked "are you sorry we got married"?

Without thinking Hermione whacked him on the head.

"I take that as a no" Harry added and pulled her to him.

Just as before they couldn't keep their hands off of each other,

Hermione pulled away from him and said "if you keep doing that were never going to get to Hogwarts on time".

Then she went to shower as she came out she asked " do you think I'm putting on some weight" this is one of those times Harry wished he was someplace else, but for some reason he said "yes I think you have added a few pounds" waiting to get whacked he closed his eyes but it never came.

After his shower Hermione set down with him and asked "Harry do you think I could be pregnant"?

Harry set there a minute and with a smile that looked like it would rip his face open said "YES" and hugged her.

It was like the world had just stopped for Hermione, she was married to not only her love but her best friend, and he wanted kids as much as she did, what more could she ask for.

Just then the doorbell rang; Kreacher went to the door but did not open it, because just on the other side was Ron and Ginny Weasley.

Harry looked at Hermione and said "it's time to end this" Hermione agreed and together they went to the door.

As Harry opened it Ron tried to push his way in but Harry pushed him back out.

Ron now turning red said "you have to get a divorce and marry Ginny" Harry looked at Ron then Ginny and said "NO I Don't, the contract was made unlawfully and for the wrong person for you to get rich off of" Ron reached for his wand but Harry was too fast and had his out and pointed between Ron eyes.

Ginny asked to speak with Harry alone, but Harry said "they didn't have time and he had nothing to say to her" and closed the door.

Hermione ran upstairs and got dressed in a sexy little outfit and came back down with an evil little smile on her face.

All Harry could say was "do we have to go to Hogwarts"?

Hermione looked at him and said "you know they are going to be standing out there waiting on us to come out and I for one want them to see us I have your stuff laid out for you".

Harry ran upstairs changed in less than a minute, his jeans and shirt showed everything he had, and just before they walked out the door Hermione kissed him.

Hermione was right Ron and Ginny stood across the street, and when they saw Harry and Hermione come out both of their mouths fell open.

A car pulled up and Harry opened the door for Hermione and then got in his self, as they pulled away Harry said "you think they got the point" Hermione looking down said "well Ginny did anyway" and started laughing.

The trip to Hogwarts was a lot more fun now; they talked about the looks on Ron's and Ginny's faces and how mean that was to do but how much fun it was.

The car couldn't take them to hogsmead or to the school, so they went just outside of town and got Harry's new broom out of the trunk of the car and flew to the school. Neville and Luna were standing outside to meet them, but they wasn't ready for what they seen Hermione flying with Harry behind her,

The landing wasn't too good but as she picked herself and Harry up she said "well I've just been flying for a few weeks what do you want" at that everyone started laughing.

As they made there was to Prof. McGonagall's office they told Neville and Luna about Ron and Ginny and what they had done to them as they left the house, but this was as funny to Neville and Luna.

Mrs. Longbottom and Prof. McGonagall were waiting on them as they walked into the office, Hermione was just about to ask Luna if she would like to go look around while they talked, when Mrs. Longbottom said "Lady Potter-Black you will need to hear this as well" Hermione looked as if to ask how she knew but then seen Harry playing with his ring, Hermione sat down.

Neville and Luna both sat as well because they were planning their wedding, and was going to use this meeting to ask Harry and Hermione to be there best man and bride's maid.

As Mrs. Longbottom started Hermione started taken notes, Harry could only smile because he knew that part of her would never change.

As Mrs. Longbottom talked a lot of things became very clear, one of them was Lord Potter-Black needed to show the world he was married, and the other was that no one controlled him.

Both of these would be easy to do, and with a little help from Neville and Luna wedding the whole world would know it in a few weeks.

Then there was the Wizengamot this was something Harry didn't seem to be happy with until something was said by Prof. McGonagall she said "Lord Potter-Black you know that your two houses are the ones that started the Wizengamot and are the only ones that can end it" Harry and Hermione looked shocked at that, but said nothing.

As the afternoon went on there was a lot to learn but Harry was getting the high points and Hermione was getting everything else and together they would be able to work the rest out.

It was coming upon 8pm when they had covered everything and Mrs. Longbottom said that if she could help with anything to just send her an owl and she would.

Harry and Hermione stood as she got up to their shock she bowed to them and then thanked them and left the room, Prof. McGonagall did the same and said she would return in a moment.

This was something Harry and Hermione would have to get used to, but that would come with time.

Prof. McGonagall returned to her office and asked what there plains were, Harry didn't have clue but Hermione stepped in and said "well first we're going to help our friends here get married then we are going to start our family" Prof. McGonagall looked shocked at the last part but then smiled.

Harry and Hermione asked Neville and Luna to join them for dinner to see what they could do to help with the wedding.

At dinner the talk was about the wedding and how Harry and Hermione had pulled theirs off so fast, Hermione told them it was all Harry's doing she didn't have a clue,

Harry started off with "well you really have to know what your bride wants and then you have to take that up a notch" Neville looked at Luna and asked "what do you really want"? Luna just said "to marry you with dad and your granny there along with Harry and Hermione".

Neville looked over at Harry and asked "can we do it"?

When was the only thing Harry said looking from Neville to Luna.

The next day they got everything lined up for the wedding to be held the following day, Harry and Neville were getting there dress robes cleaned and Hermione and Luna were getting there dresses fitted.

After Harry and Neville got done, Harry asked Neville" if they had picked out rings yet", Neville said they hadn't so Harry took him to the jeweler that had made his and Hermione rings.

Neville wasn't sure about this he hadn't done anything without asking Luna first but Harry told him it would be find, as they walked in Harry asked the jeweler "has these two ladies been in here yet" showing him a picture of Hermione and Luna, the jeweler said "yes they had and the snow colored hair one loved this set but said it cost too much" Neville looked at the set and said "it is great, but a little high priced" Harry said "Hermione and I need to get you two a wedding gift and I can think of nothing better" and paid for the ring set.

Neville didn't like it but like Harry said "it's a wedding gift and they can't return it".

After the ladies had there dresses fitted they met the guys for lunch, that's when Harry asked if they wanted their wedding to in the paper the day after the wedding he said "that way no one can just show up and mess it but they will know about it".

Luna said "that would be find as long as their (Harry and Hermione's) was in it to" Hermione said "she would write it up and list the best man and brides maid for both of them".

Luna and Neville's wedding was a hit other then they added a few last minute friends to the short list, but everything went great.

Mrs. Longbottom was very happy with it as she put it "very classy without being flashy", this made Harry and Hermione feel good, then they all went outside for pictures and so the reporter could get some candid shots of the couple and friends.

"The Longbottom-Lovegood wedding announcement"

The former Hogwarts students Neville Longbottom and Luna Lovegood was married this past Wednesday,

Mr. Longbottom's best man was Harry J. Potter-Black,

Those who attended the wedding were Mrs. Longbottom, Mr. Lovegood, Prof. McGonagall, Minister Kingsley Shacklebolt, Jack Sloper, Prof. Sprout, and Prof. Rubeus Hagrid.

Neville asked Hermione "it's a little short isn't it"?

Hermione said "quality or quantity", Luna added "hun we had three professor's, the minister of magic and our friend Jack along with a Lord and his wife standing beside us", Neville just dropped his head and said "sorry".

"The Potter-Black-Granger wedding"

The former Hogwarts students Harry J. Potter-Black and Hermione J. Granger was married a week ago this Wednesday,

Mr. Potter-Black's best man was Neville Longbottom,

Miss. Granger's bride's maid was Luna Lovegood,

Those who attended the wedding were Prof. McGonagall and Minister Kingsley Shacklebolt.

"I for one was really upset to find out about this wedding by reading it in the daily profit" Rita Skeeter writes in her column, "one would think that they would want me there to cover something this big and then to find out that Harry Potter and Hermione Granger are married as a footnote in the announcement is just unthinkable"

Skeeter goes on "and what is up with this Potter-Black stuff anyway".

As Ron reads his dreams come crashing down, all that money gone and no way to get it.

Ginny comes running down and grabs the paper out of his hands and asks "anything about Harry in it today"?

But Ron doesn't answer.

Harry and Hermione had been married for a little more the three weeks.

The thought that Hermione could be pregnant was a shock, it would be hard to have a little baby right now, but at the same time it would be bloody great.

Harry couldn't help but smile every time he thought about it.

Harry got up from the table where he had been working on some stuff for Hermione; he was just about to get a cup of tea when Hermione walked in sobbing.

Harry asked "what's wrong"?

Hermione only said "I'm not" and sobbed harder.

Harry put his arms around her and said "that's ok it's just not time yet, there are a lot of things we need to do, besides you're not that old yet".

Hermione looked at his and said "you know what's coming don't you" with the best smile she could do.

Harry set his tea down and started rubbing his head where she had whacked him, but it was worth it she was smiling again.

"Harry can we keep trying" Hermione asked "every night" Harry said, this got even a bigger smile from her.

Then Harry asked about when they should announce his Lordship's, Hermione had talked to the Longbottom's and when they were going to announce Neville's.

Hermione said that Neville was announcing his in a week and had said that would be a great time to announce yours. The whole court would be there along with the Wizengamot. By doing it at the same time it would show them that the three strongest houses are allied now.

Harry looked as if he was about to say something, but Hermione said allied just means that you agree to not battle each other.

Then Harry said that sounds great Lady Potter-Black, Hermione only smiled at him. That name was one thing she had problems with because she knew at some point the fact that she was muggle born was going to be a very big problem for Harry.

Ron set there a few seconds then the scream came, Ginny had just read the announcements.

She ran back in and shoved the paper back in Ron face and said "did you see what that git went and did".

Ron said "yes I did now what do you want me to do about it"?

Molly came running in to see what had happened, Ginny shoved the paper in her hands and said "read it mum".

As Molly reads the announcements she just smiles and says "we're ok it's not legal, look at his name, his name is Potter not Potter-Black".

But Ron said what if Sirius made Harry his son in his will then he would be a Black.

Molly spoke up and said but he wouldn't be a Potter then, and the contract wouldn't be any good, and then ran off to find something.

After an hour of looking she came back to where Ron and Ginny were and said he done it he broke the contract it's gone.

Ron looked over to Ginny and said better send an owl to Dean and let him know you're free but broke.
