A/N: Well, here we are. Chapter 48, the last and final chapter of The Last of Times, the last and final chapter of this entire trilogy. I hope you've enjoyed it. Thanks so much for reading and reviewing. :]

"You may now kiss the bride," the priest announced. Harry smiled and kissed Ginny deeply. Everyone clapped and Harry and Ginny turned to their family and friends. Four months earlier, Ron and Hermione had married. Eight months before, Kingsley and Tonks had gotten married as well.

"Congratulations, pup." Remus hugged his nephew and kissed his head.

"Thanks." Harry pulled away and turned to his godfather. "Sirius."

"Harry." Sirius pulled Harry into a tight hug. "Congratulations."

"Thanks." Harry smiled. Sirius kissed his forehead.

"I have a gift for you," Sirius said.

"Sirius, we said no gifts," Harry stated.

"It's not really a wedding gift," Sirius replied.

"All right," Harry sighed. "What is it?"

"I'm giving you my old flat. You don't have to live there. Do what you want with it," Sirius answered.

"What? Sirius, I can't take your flat," Harry denied the offer.

"Yes, you can. I'm never going to use that place anymore. It might as well be put to some use."

"Sirius, I-I don't know what to say," Harry replied.

"Take the flat. Do what you want with it," Sirius said.

Harry hugged Sirius again. "Thank you, Sirius. I love you."

"You too, kiddo."

"Harry!" Hermione shrieked. Harry turned just as she jumped on him. "We're family!"

"By marriage. And, besides. We've always been family." Harry smiled softly at her.

"Thanks, Harry." She had tears in her eyes.

"You've always been my sister."

"Oh, Harry. I love you," Hermione hugged him again.

"I love you too, Hermione."

"Harry Potter. Are you cheating on me with Hermione? How could you?" Ginny came up to him and Ron appeared beside Hermione.

"Sorry, Ginny. Hermione's just so tempting," Harry joked. Ginny laughed and kissed him.

"I believe you two have a honeymoon to get to," Ron grinned.

"Yes, we do. We'll see everyone in a couple weeks!" Harry said loudly. Harry and Ginny said goodbye to everyone then left for their two week honeymoon.


"Sirius? Remus? I'm home!" Harry called. He and Ginny still lived at their homes, not having a house for themselves yet.

"Harry!" Sirius ran to Harry and hugged his godson. "I've missed you."

"I've missed you too, Sirius," Harry agreed as Sirius kissed his temple. "Where's Remus?"

"Out back. I don't know what he's doing. Go see," Sirius answered. Harry ran back outside and walked around the house. Remus was facing away from Harry, fixing broken windows and a door.

"What happened?" Harry asked.

"Sirius and-" Remus turned and spotted Harry who grinned. "Harry!" Remus ran to him and hugged him. "I'm so glad you're back, pup."

"I'm glad to be back too," Harry agreed as Remus pulled away. "So, what happened?"

"Sirius and Tonks were disagreeing."

"Disagreeing led to three broken windows and a smashed door?" Harry raised an eyebrow.

"All right. So, disagreeing is an understatement." Remus shrugged and began fixing the second window. Harry pulled out his wand and started helping. "You don't have to help, pup."

"I know. It's no problem though," Harry said.

"We missed you around here. How was the honeymoon?" Remus stated.

"It was amazing. What's been going on here?"

"Nothing much. Kingsley's the permanent Defence professor. Angelina's the permanent Flying Instructor. Minister Bones has finally managed to get the lycanthropy cure to be available to the public," Remus explained.

"I already knew all that. It's all happened the past year," Harry said.

"I know. Nothing's been happening though. Bellatrix hasn't been found yet," Remus tried again.

"Nothing new. I should start working on finding her," Harry sighed.

"There's no hurry. She won't do anything. You'll find her soon. Besides, Sirius won't let you work. You just got home," Remus told him, fixing the door.

"True. Let's go inside." Harry went through the newly fixed door.

"I'm coming." Remus followed his nephew.


"Harry! You're back!" Hermione yelled when Harry entered the living room. Ron and Hermione were sitting on the sofa.

"Hi, Hermione. I've missed you." Harry hugged her.

"We've missed you," she said as Harry and Ron embraced.

"I'm happy to be home," Harry nodded. He sat on the sofa with his friends and they started chatting. They talked about what people were doing now.

Fred and George were still working their very successful joke shop. Angelina Johnson worked at the joke shop on weekends and was the Flying Instructor at Hogwarts during the week. Neville Longbottom worked at Hogwarts as well as a teacher's assistant to Professor Sprout teaching Herbology. His wife, Luna Lovegood, was a famous reporter for the Daily Prophet. Draco Malfoy, despite being rich, got a job at the Ministry. He worked in the Department for the Disposal of Dangerous Creatures. He may not be like his father, but he was still Malfoy.

Oliver Wood was playing Keeper for the Quidditch team, Puddlemere United. Bill Weasley still worked at Gringotts in Diagon Alley. Cedric Diggory had a permanent position at Hogwarts as the Charms professor. Dean Thomas had returned to school as well to teach Potions. Kingsley had retired from being an Auror and was now the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor. Tonks still worked for Sirius as an Auror. Padma Patil had taken over the Transfiguration position.

Alicia Spinnet had a successful Quidditch career like Oliver Wood. She played Chaser for the Chudley Cannons. Fleur Weasley nee Delacour worked with her husband, Bill Weasley, at Gringotts. Professor Minerva McGonagall was still the Headmistress of Hogwarts. Sirius and Remus were still the heads of their departments. Remus had hired Hermione for the position vacated by Seth Ledger, who was sitting in Azkaban, soulless.

Sirius hired a new team as well. Harry was his second-in-command. Ron and Ginny were on the team too. The other Aurors were Seth Ledger's little brother Danny Ledger, Shea Connelly, Leah Rogers, and Jeremy Carter. Amelia Bones was the new permanent Minister of Magic as well. She had made remarkable changes. There was no longer a Werewolf Law. Any witch or wizard with lycanthropy could have children or adopt. They were now able to get any job too. Or, if they wanted to rid themselves of the curse, the cure was available to the public through Remus' department. They just had to talk to Remus or Hermione.

The wizarding world was doing remarkable. It had been two years since Voldemort's downfall. Everything had been accepted, even by Harry. He accepted all the deaths. He could handle it now. He was living his normal life.

By the time the trio finished talking, four hours had passed and it was dinner time.

"We have to go. See you later, Harry," Ron said and he and Hermione Flooed home.

"Bye, guys." Harry walked to the kitchen.

Ginny and I need to get a place of our own. Ron and Hermione need a place too, he thought as he grabbed a bottle of water. He took a drink and went back to the living room. He stared at a picture on the mantle. It was of his parents. They were in front of their home. The place they had lost their lives. Godric's Hollow.

"You understand that place belongs to you now, right?" Sirius said, making Harry jump.

"Yeah, I know," Harry nodded.

"Do you think you and Ginny will want to live there?" Sirius asked.

"Not sure. I've been thinking about it." Harry shrugged.

"Have you talked to Ginny about it?"

"No, not yet." Harry shook his head.

"You should. She'll help with the decision."

"Yeah, I know," Harry sighed.

"I know your parents would be happy to see you live there. Same with me and Remus. It's a great place," Sirius told him.

"Besides the giant snake and Death Eater, it looked like a nice place," Harry grinned. Sirius chuckled. "I'll talk to Ginny later."

"Good. Now, come on. Dinner time."

"It's always time to eat, according to you," Harry joked.

"You eat just as much as me," Sirius said.

"He's actually cut back over the past couple years. He doesn't eat quite as much anymore." Remus put in as the others sat down.

"Told you," Harry added.

"Shut it, Harry." Sirius glared. Remus gave them their food and took his place next to Harry.


A few days later, Harry called Ron, Hermione, and Ginny over. They were sitting in the living room. Harry was on the sofa with his arm around Ginny who was lying down, her head in his lap. Ron and Hermione were sitting together on one of the recliners.

"So how's work, Hermione?" Harry asked.

"Good. Remus and I had to go to Edinburg to get a rogue vampire. He had turned four people and killed six, including a seven year old boy. It was so sad, seeing the boy's parents," she said.

"Have you noticed how few flats are for sale here in London?" Ron changed the subject. "Hermione and I have been looking for a place, but there's not many for sale. Ones that are for sale are too expensive as well. We don't want to leave London either."

"Yeah. It's hard," Hermione agreed.

"That reminds me," Harry said. "Last year, Sirius gave me something. I haven't known what I wanted to do with it, so I forgot about it."

"What is it?" Hermione asked.

"Sirius gave me his flat. He wanted it to be put to some use. I can do what I want with it," Harry said.

"So what do you plan to do with it?" Ginny asked.

"I've got an idea now." Harry looked at Ron and Hermione. "I want you two to take it. You can live there."

"What? Harry, no. Sirius gave it to you." Hermione shook her head.

"He gave it to me to do what I want with it. This is what I want to do. It's a great place. You've both seen it," Harry replied.

"He's right. That flat is amazing," Ron told his wife.

"Which is why you should keep it, Harry. For you and Ginny," Hermione said.

"I have another place in mind for us," Harry looked down at Ginny.

"What do you mean?" she wondered.

"How would you feel about living in Godric's Hollow?" Harry asked.

Ginny sat up. "Godric's Hollow? Really?"

"Yeah," Harry nodded.

Ginny smiled. "I would absolutely love to live there."

Harry kissed her. "So it's settled. We live at Godric's Hollow and you live in Sirius' flat." He looked at his friends.

Ron and Hermione glanced at each other. "Yeah," Ron finally said. "We'll live in Sirius' flat."

"Thank you, Harry," Hermione smiled.

"It's no problem." Harry waved it off.

"Did I hear that right?" Sirius walked into the room.

"What did you hear?" Harry asked.

"Ron and Hermione will be living in my old flat and you two will be living in Godric's Hollow."

"You heard right," Ginny nodded.

"That's great," Sirius smiled.

"Harry, we have to go. We promised Mum we'd help clean the house." Ginny stood up.

"All right. I'll see you later." Harry kissed her and they Flooed home.

Sirius sat beside his godson. "When will you be moving into Godric's Hollow?"

"Don't know. Couple weeks maybe. Why?"

Sirius sighed. "I'm going to miss having you here."

"I'll still probably be here every day and when there comes a day I'm not, you and Remus will be over there. We'll see each other at work too," Harry said.

"Still. You've lived here since you were five. Now you're nineteen, married, and ready to move out. Remus and I will miss having you around," Sirius stated.

"You make it sound like I'm never coming back. Like I'm cutting you two out of my life," Harry frowned.

"You're starting your own life. Soon you'll have a family and-"

"Let me stop you right there, Sirius." Harry smiled. "Just because I'm married and moving out doesn't mean you and Remus will mean any less to me. I mean, come on. You raised me. You saved me from the Dursleys. You two will always be my family and you'll always mean everything to me. I couldn't cut you two out even if I wanted to. You mean too much. I'll miss living here, but we'll see each other so much, it'll be like I'm still here," Harry stated.

Sirius hugged him and kissed the side of his head. "I love you."

"You too, Sirius. I always will," Harry replied.


"Do you have everything, pup?" Remus asked Harry. It was two weeks later and Harry was moving into Godric's Hollow with Ginny. Ron and Hermione had already moved into Sirius' old flat as well.

"Remus, you've asked me that three times already. Every time I've said yes," Harry smiled.

"I'm being cautious." Remus wrapped his arms around Harry.

"Of what? I'm just moving from one house to another. I've done it before," Harry said.

"But this time it's not with Sirius and I. You're alone," Remus replied.

"I am not alone," Harry defended. "I'm moving in with Ginny. You know, my wife?" he grinned.

"Smartass," Remus held him closer.

"Come on. It's time to go," Harry told Remus and they Disapparated. When they opened their eyes, they were in front of Godric's Hollow. The Weasleys, Hermione, and Sirius were there as well.

"Harry, dear!" Mrs. Weasley hugged him.

"Hi, Molly." Mrs. Weasley had insisted he call her Molly since he was now her son-in-law. It was strange at first, but Harry got used to it.

"Harry!" Ginny called and ran to his side. "This is so exciting. I can't believe we're finally doing this." She grasped his hand.

"I know." Harry nodded. For the next hour, everyone helped Harry and Ginny move and settle into Godric's Hollow. When they were done, everyone sat in the spacious living room.

"This place looks way better than when we were last here," Ron said.

"It really does. It looks amazing," Hermione agreed.

"I can definitely see us having a family here." Ginny smiled at Harry who kissed her forehead.

"Congratulations, you two." Sirius hugged Harry.

"I think we've done all we can. We should all head home," Mr. Weasley said.

"We'll see you all out," Ginny said. She and Harry followed their family to the door.

"We'll see you later, dear." Mrs. Weasley hugged her daughter.

"Bye, Mum. Bye, Dad. Everyone else," Ginny said. She and Harry waved as everyone walked outside to Apparate.

They walked back inside and closed the door when everyone disappeared.

"Here we are," Ginny said.

"Here we are," Harry repeated. He grabbed her around the waist, lifted her, and spun her around. She laughed.

"Harry, put me down," she giggled and she was back on the floor. She sighed and rested against his chest. "It's funny how our lives became so normal so fast."

"Yeah, it's crazy," Harry agreed. "I'm all right with it though. I'm ready for normal."

"Me too." Ginny looked at him. She laughed as he kissed her and spun her around again.


"I have to say. I can't complain that Harry gave this place to us." Ron said to Hermione. A few hours earlier, everyone had helped them move into Sirius' old flat. Now, settled in, they were sitting in the living room.

"Yeah, I can't complain either," Hermione agreed. "This is a great place."

"It'll be great to raise a family here too," Ron smiled.

Hermione wrapped her arms around his waist. "I'm so glad things are normal."

"Everything turned normal pretty fast," Ron stated.

"I'm okay with that." Hermione smiled.

"Yeah, same." he kissed the top of her head.


The world marvelled at how quickly things went back to normal. The golden trio loved their new lives, loved that they were no longer full of danger and sorrow. Everyone carried on with their lives. Harry visited Remus and Sirius everyday and if he couldn't, they went to Godric's Hollow. Harry and Ginny visited Ron and Hermione almost every day as well.

After a couple years, they had their own families. Harry and Ginny had a daughter and a son while Ron and Hermione had a son. Their lives did nothing but improve.

Harry was as close to his uncles as ever. He went to them for everything. The love he felt for them never subsided, it only grew. They were always there, just as they had been while he was growing up.

Harry never had a problem with nightmares ever again. The short thought of the war came and went, but only occasionally. As for his scar, never again did it hurt. Everything that had happened was nothing but a memory. Though still visible, that's all his scar became.

A simple memory.

THE END

A/N: Well, there it is. That's the end. No, there is no more after this. It is only these three, this trilogy is over. I hope you've all enjoyed it. I know that when I actually wrote the thing, I had fun with it. Thank you all so much for reading and reviewing. :]
