Harry had all but forgotten Hermione was due at the same time as Draco, until word was sent that she was about to give birth. She had been tried in absentia, more than enough proof of her guilt, and would be executed before her baby was even a day old. Harry was surprised when Bill said the Delacaurs would take the baby, considering he or she's sire had killed their daughter. Bill reminded him Fleur was pregnant when killed, and an innocent baby died, the family seeing it as a way to have that back. Bill understood, but he could never raise the baby, but Gabrielle and her husband planned to blood adopt the baby.

Gabrielle had come with Bill, nineteen years old and still a newlywed, but her and her husband had planned to start a family anyway. Gabrielle knew her sister would have approved, and she knew no matter the parents, this little baby deserved a home and people to love him or her.

Harry left them down below and entered the room where Hermione had given birth."The baby is healthy?"

The healer looked up. "A little boy, he is in the bassinette."

Ignoring Hermione who was in restraints and being cleaned up, Harry walked over to the bassinette, and looked at the little boy. He looked Hermione but the hair color, though that would change with the blood adoption. The little boy would soon be a Rochet, and a Delacaur though not in name, as soon as he was home in France. The child was quite sweet tempered it seemed, he was awake, but not fussing.

Harry motioned to Hermione. "Clean her up. The aurors are waiting in the hall to escort her for execution."

Hermione cried out. "You can't do this to me, give me my son. Give him to me."

Harry looked down at the baby in his arms, and as innocent as he was, it was cruel that he had lived when others had not. Harry's son died indirectly because of her, and Luna's baby she killed, but her son lived. But the baby was so innocent and even Harry could not hate him, and he would see the little boy with his new parents. He would have another son one day, and Lucius and their baby would be in heaven waiting for him.

Harry looked down at her. "You'll be executed for all the innocent lives you took. But your little boy will be raised by two adoring parents"

Hermione tried to reach for him. "I demand to see him, I demand to see my son. You can't do this."

Harry walked into the hall, and motioned for the aurors to go in, and headed down to the sitting room. Gabrielle waited, and as he watched her take the little boy into her arms, he knew how right this was. Jaime Daniel Rochet, the name chosen by Gabrielle and her husband if it was a boy, would grow up loved, never knowing the truth of his parentage. He would likely go to school at Beauxbautons, not with Luke, but he wondered if the boys would know each other.

Harry went to the ministry to see Hermione delivered, but even after all she had done, he could not watch. He later stood watching his dad and Draco with Luke, as he told Severus how it had gone down. Severus had offered to go with him, but he understood it was something Harry had needed to do alone.

Harry went into his arms. "I looked at him, and I was so angry. Why does their child live? Why does he get to live when mine and Luna's are dead?"

Severus held him. "I wish I had answers my love, but I don't. But your little one is in heaven, and one day you'll have a baby in your arms."

He knew Harry wanted to hate the baby, he wanted to wish it dead, but he couldn't.. Harry may have hid from his heart for five years, but the man Lucius loved had come back, and Harry would never wish any baby dead. He made sure Hermione had the best care, and Kreacher stopped feeding her gruel

Harry looked in on the happy family. "I want that. I came back saying I wanted it for them, but I want it for myself too."

Little Luke and Jaime were three months old, and the world was about to celebrate the one year anniversary of peace. Many remembered the anniversary of Voldemort, which had been celebrated with executions and new laws. The half breed law this time were removed, people Albus saw in prison for nothing were released from prison, and proper monuments were built.

Severus was worried, but she had been assured by Remus and Draco, that Harry was ready for this. Harry wanted to have kids, and move on, with him. He knew part of Harry would always belong to Lucius but he was okay with that, for he knew he would have Harry's heart.

Harry was surprise on the eve of thee anniversary when Severus appeared with a bouquet of sunflowers."What are these for?"

He knew Harry had always loved the ones in France. "I thought I could sneak you away for a date."

Harry had never really been on a date, he and Lucius couldn't date for real, and he smiled at the thought He allowed Severus to do side by side, and he was amazed when he found himself at the edge of the Black Lake, at school, and there was a candle light picnic and music waiting for them. A picnic might seem so simple, but Severus knew Harry had longed for such mundane pleasures, since his husband died

Harry was touched by the picnic and when music appeared for them to dance. He was some how not surprised when they walked to the new monument, with the victims of both wars with Voldemort, and Dumbledore on. His husband, parents, godfather and so many others he knew, were on it.

Severus went to one knee."You have done as you said, got justice for them. It is time to move on, be happy. I want you to do it with me. Marry me."

Harry looked at the platinum and emerald ring and nodded."Yes."

As Severus put the ring on and standing, took Harry into his arms for a long warm kiss, there was clapping. The remaining Weasleys, Luna and Augusta, Remus and Draco with Luke, and a number of others who had returned from the UK, had appeared.

Draco hugged him."You know my dad would be so happy for you. He wanted nothing more then for us both to be happy."
