Okay chapter 19, wow never thought this story would get this long. Thanks to everyone for your reviews. As always I own nothing but Grace, Johnny, the twins, and the idea to bring people back to life!
"This is amazing," I whispered as I stood in Dumbledore's office with James and Lily Potter, and Regulus Black. "Albus how is this possible?"
The wise man sighed and whispered "I have a few ideas, one would be that Harry has sacrificed himself enough times for the greater good that whoever rules over us has decided that young Mr. Potter deserves a proper family. My other idea is that when you jumped in front of Harry and Voldemort, willing to die for the sake of keeping your nephew alive for a few more minutes the killing curse that hit you was much like the one which hit Lily, James, and Regulus. You were all willing to die for something, something that would rid the world of Voldemort for ever."
My brother took in a shaky breath then whispered "So we are alive, we're not time travelers or something?"
I laughed at the question that was so my brother. The laugh seemed to trigger something in James because suddenly I was pulled into the tightest hug I had ever had.
"Perhaps we should get you all to the hospital wing." Dumbledore said as he was already walking toward the door to his office.
James and Lily followed close behind with Regulus lagging back to walk beside me. "So," he whispered as we walked down the strangely cold corridors. "You're married to me brother,"
"We're engaged actually," I corrected as I smiled softly at the man who looked nothing like the boy who had died all those years ago. Actually weirdly, James, Lily, and Regulus looked like they would've if they had never died.
Regulus nodded and whispered "We were in the same year Grace, did you ever think I could've done what Sirius did? Do you think I could've just run away?"
I grabbed Regulus's hand and turned him around to face me, stopping right outside the doors to the infirmary "Regulus Black you listen to me," I hissed "You might have some stupid mark on your arm but you are as much my brother as James is. Actually you'll be my brother for real when I marry Sirius. The point is, you are very much like your brother then either one of you would like to admit."
"Reg," I dropped Regulus's hand and turned around to find Sirius standing in the doorway with a look of surprise, anger, joy, and disbelief written on his face.
"Hello big brother," Regulus whispered
It was with those words that Sirius moved from the doorway and pulled his baby brother into the first brotherly hug the two had ever shared. "Welcome back Reg, you'll be living with Grace and I." then Sirius turned to face my brother and his wife "You two will be living with us as well, at Potter manor, of course you'll be living with Moony, his boy, Harry, Orion, and Rose too but I don't thinkā¦"
"Wait, who's Orion and Rose?" Lily asked looking at me while James looked at Remus and Sirius and asked "What's Moony's kid's name?"
I smiled as I wrapped an arm around Sirius's waist and said "Orion and Rose are mine and Sirius's one year old twins," Sirius placed a kiss on my lips then turned back to James and Lily and answered "Remus's son's name is John, or Johnny."
"Mom, dad." Came Harry's voice as nothing more then a whisper from his bed where he sat staring at Lily and James.
"My baby," Lily said as she ran over to him and threw her arms around him.
"How," Harry managed as he hugged her back and tried not to let the tears leave his eyes.
Dumbledore smiled at the boy and said "We may never know," he turned to the window and whispered "For now let's embrace this chance we have all been given, let's embrace it and use it to be strong as we take on our greatest challenge."
I pulled Remus and Sirius over to where my brother and his family stood, Remus pulled Johnny, and Sirius pulled Regulus. We all gathered around Harry's bed and just stood there hugging one another as we were finally a family. For the first time in thirteen years we were a family.
Okay I hope the ending was good, I'm never sure how to end the chapters of this story. I hope you all liked it and please, please review!
