Harry was eternally grateful for the start of the winter break which came soon after the trial, for returning had definitely been hard. He had thought when he could revel he truth things would be easier for him, but he had found while he no longer had o hide, there was definitely a lot more talk. The red heads and Hermione were even more hostile then ever, now that they knew that Harry knew about them, they could be it to his face, and there were others who believed their lies as well. He found it was nearly impossible to go to Gryffindor, and he had been scared about quidditch practice, but it seemed the house would not hex him, if he continued to lead them towards a win, at least not out on the field that is. Severus and his dad had moved to him have him switched houses, but though a re-sort was allowed, it turned out it was not permitted half way through the year. Harry would be allowed to re-sort for his senior year, which Harry was sure he would do even if things might calm down for he had more friends in Slytherin and felt safer there, especially when Draco said he would take the vacant chaser position next year so Harry could be seeker, for if he had switched mid year he could not have played.

Remus and Tonks were to be married on Christmas Eve it turned out, to give them time for a proper honeymoon, even though they had worried about Harry. Harry had assured them he understood, and they were going to celebrate the holiday, the three of them and Tonks' parents, the day before. Harry would be spending some with the Tonks and some with the Malfoys while they were gone, and Lucius surprised Harry with news he had got Harry an appointment for corrective eye surgery. He would spend one night in the hospital, it was a spell and not actual surgery, but they took precautions, and he would have it two days after Christmas. It seemed Pansy had got her wish, Harry would have a make over she thought he needed, and Harry was happy about the glasses part at least,

The day they celebrated Christmas Harry was touched when he had been asked by Remus to be his ring witness, Severus at his side as well. Harry had cufflinks with a wolf and star for Remus, and a moon and star pendant for Tonks made, for their wedding and Christmas gift, which seemed even more fitting after the request. Remus felt guilt again about leaving Harry especially now he would be having he procedure, but Harry assured him he would be okay.

The couple had decided to wed not at Malfoy Manor but in the back gardens of the Tonks house, with only about forty guests. Harry and Severus stood with the minister, as well as Moody and Draco who were oddly standing for Tonks, as Tonks was walked down the aisle by her parents who proudly handed her off.

The minister turned to Remus. "Do you Remus John Lupin take Nymphadora as your wife and bond, united in body and soul, till divided by death?"

Remus was in tears. "I do."

"And do you Nymphadora Dane Tonks take Remus as your husband and bond, united in body and soul, till divided by death?"

Tonks, or Dora as most were calling her now, had bright pink hair in happiness. "I do."

Moody handed a ring to Remus. "Take this ring and claim my protégé as your wife while I stand witness."

Remus slid the ring on her hand. "With this ring I claim you as my wife."

Harry handed a ring to Tonks. "Take this ring and claim my dad as your husband, while I stand witness."

She slid the ring on Remus. "With his ring I claim you as my husband."

The minister ended. "I now pronounce you husband and wife. Remus you may kiss your bride."

Harry clapped louder then most as they shared a kiss, and was proud to sign off on the forms. He had become a Lupin when Remus adopted him, and he was even happier he had when Tonks became Dora Lupin, and he knew now Albus was taken care of, they intended to start on a baby on their honeymoon. As they moved to the tents where a Christmas themed dinner and some music was waiting Harry was so glad they had not postponed the wedding because of the trial. After the horrors with Albus, and knowing all the talk and issues with his former friend and with Molly's words still in his head, he had needed this.

Dora claimed him for the second dance as his dad danced with Andromeda. "You know it means a lot you were here with us for this. And to be a family with you."

Harry kissed her on the cheek. "I may never call you mum, but you know I love you as one. And I think even Grandpa Ted and Grandma Andromeda has a ring."

Dora laughed and assured him it would be the perfect Christmas gift to her parents if he started calling them it, they already considered him a grandson before now. They knew the couple were going to have kids, or at least try, but that would not change they considered Harry one, and he knew they meant the words. Harry was just happy to finally have this family, and was so happy for his dad when he watched the two of them take off on their honeymoon.

Though Harry was excited never to have to wear glasses before, Draco reminding Harry next year he could put the good eyes to proper use when he sorted into the right house, he was still nervous. He knew it was not surgery, not like a muggle would do, and the night stay was just as a precaution really, but he had never liked hospitals or doctors, the only one he had ever really felt any comfort around had of course been Poppy, and it had taken time even with her for Harry to grow a comfort zone. Well and Andromeda, but his new grandmother was different, she had never treated him as a patient before, she was a healer second to being his family.

Lucius and Draco had met them at the hospital and Severus had come as well, Lucius ensuring that the red heads would be no where near him. Molly and Percy were not working that day, their day off, and the younger two had opted to stay at school instead of staying in the tiny two bedroom flat with Molly and Percy.

Severus placed a small pendant down next to Harry which Harry had given back to his dad when he got out of the hospital. "He wanted you to have this today."

Harry clutched the wolf, the dog always present around his neck. "Thanks for being here with me Sev. And for this."

Squeezing Harry's hand, Severus found himself bout to kiss him, but he held back. He knew Harry thought he was there because of his friendship with Remus, and nothing else. Oddly it was the same thing Harry was feeling, he thought Severus was there because his dad was worried, but wished it was more. Lucius watched the two from the door, and though there was such an age difference, he wished Harry and Severus would see they seemed to share the same attraction.

Harry soon drifted off from the potions he had been given and was taken off for the procedure. He was in the same private area his dad had been in that summer, even if only there over night. The procedure took an hour and Harry would be out over night, but they were assured he had done well and after a few days, he would have great vision, perhaps no perfect but better then he even saw with glasses on.

Lucius looked at Draco. "I am going to take Draco home, I can come back or I am sure Andromeda will come sit with him."

Severus shook his head and motioned to his pocket. "I have some reading to do, and I assured Remus I would keep an eye on his son for him while he was gone."

Again Lucius felt like pointing out that it was bout Harry and not Remus, but he held his tongue, for he knew his brother would simply deny it. Severus did get some reading done, Andromeda and Ted coming to sit with Harry for bit while he went for something to eat, but he remained by Harry's side. He woke up sometime after midnight and needed to take a stretch, and left a sleeping Harry's side to take a walk down the hall and perhaps get some tea.

A figure slipped into the room while he was gone and looked down on Harry lying here. "You should have known not to get too comfortable. You'll pay for all of this."
