Chapter 31 yay thanks to everyone for reviewing and I hope you continue to like this story! I own nothing but Grace, Johnny, Orion, Rose, and others you don't recognize to be JK's.

"Thank you so much Gracie," Alice whispered as the Longbottoms moved around the dinning room of Grimmauld Place.

I hugged her and whispered "It was really for Neville, I can't imagine what he went through."

Both of us turned to watch as Neville hugged his father and talked excitably about Herbology lessons at Hogwarts.

"I can't believe how big all the children have got, "Alice said as Lily and Emmeline joined us at our spot next to the window. "The last time I saw all of them they could barely walk by themselves now they've been at Hogwarts and about to take their OWLS."

Lily hugged her and whispered "Trust me, I know what you mean."

I excused myself and walked off to stand beside Sirius and Kingsley, "Sirius can we talk please?"

He barely looked at me as he said "Fine, I'm waiting for James and Frank to get done talking with Dumbledore anyway."

I nodded then lead the way to the living room, "Sirius are you ever going to talk to me again?"

"I'm talking to you now," Sirius whispered as his hand clinched into fist. I reached out and put my hand on his shoulder.

"Are…are you okay?" I whispered noticing the way he stiffened at my touch.

Sirius moved faster then I thought possible, suddenly I was pressed into the wall and it looked as Sirius was doing everything he could to hold himself back, "Gracie, I've been having nightmares about my childhood. But the dreams are us instead, me, you, Rose, and Orion. Then the night you were at Hogwarts in the hospital wing I dreamt of the baby, it was a boy with beautiful mousey brown hair and he was so smart. I was drunk and abusive, I killed the baby Gracie. He was only around five and I killed him."

I couldn't say anything as tears filled my eyes. I wrapped my arms around Sirius as a soft cry escaped his lips. I ran a hand over his back as small shakes racked his body, "Its okay honey, I've got you. I will always have you; everything's going to be okay. You. Are. Not. Your. Father."

Sirius pulled away slightly and pressed his lips gently to my cheek, "Gracie, are you going to stay here when the kids go off to Hogwarts and the rest of the order go off on missions?"

"James, Lily, and Regulus will be here too Sirius." I whispered as I hooked a finger into his belt loop.

Sirius smirked and whispered "Oh yes, but I don't like any of them the way I like you."

"Well I'd hope not," I whispered as I released his belt loop and turned to leave. "I'm going to go get Orion and Rose from their naps, try not to get drunk."

Sirius snorted "I don't get drunk, not much at least."

I rolled my eyes and continued up the stairs to Orion and Rose's nursery on the second floor across from my bedroom and next to Sirius's. I walked into the room to find Kreacher 'washing' the window as my babies sat in the middle of the floor playing with their matching toy deer's.

"Did you two climb out of your beds again?" I asked as I kneeled down to pick them up.

"Dada," Orion squealed as he stood up on wobbly legs and stretched his arms out toward the door.

Sirius smiled proudly as he scooped his son into his arms, "Tell your mommy that you and your sister are awesome, that is how you got out of bed."

Orion turned his head toward me and started talking in baby gibberish as if he was telling me exactly what Sirius had told him to say.

I shook my head and wagged a finger at him "Don't you talk to me like that young man."

Orion giggled then hid his head on Sirius's shoulder. Sirius stuck his tongue out as I picked Rose up and planted a kiss in her hair, "Rosie, tell your daddy that he's a jerk."

Rose's eyes went wide as she looked from me to Sirius then she smiled and said "Daddy jerk,"

I threw a smug look at Sirius then said "Who wants to go see auntie Lacy?"

Orion and Rose almost jumped from our arms at the mention of Lacy, who Orion seemed to have gotten a crush on. Sirius held Orion in the air like an airplane and hurried down the stairs.

"You know Rosie; I don't know how I lived all those years without you, Orion, and your daddy." I whispered as I watched lovingly as my fiancée and son disappeared down the stairs. I shook my head as I whispered "But I don't ever have to wonder how to live without you, because I have all three of you and your future baby brother or sister."

I walked down the stairs and into the dinning room and just watched as the Order and the kids talked and laughed together like there was no care in the world, like Voldemort wasn't waiting for the right moment to kill us all. For a day we were just a large group of friends spending a day together, one that could be the first of the very few we had left to live.

Argh, why is it so hard to find an ending? Anyway, I hope you all like this chapter and please hit the button and review!
