I just wanted to apologize for the confusion, if there was any, between the bonfire at the Weasley's and the renewal of vows, there is a jump in time of about two - three months or so... Sorry!

Poppy and Luna had arrived before Severus so he was the only one allowed in the room. It didn't take very long for her to cut the infant from Harry and soon enough she was cleaning Harry and stitching the incision up as Luna cleaned their daughter.
'Poppy?' Harry asked when he was clean and healed.
'She's right here Harry,' Luna said with a smile as she handed the pink bundle to Harry, 'congratulations.'
Severus had settled beside Harry and together they took in their tiny daughter. They didn't notice Poppy and Luna leave.
'She's beautiful,' Severus said running a finger along her soft, red cheek.
'No she's not, who are you trying to kid?' Harry retorted even as he stared at her in adoration, 'she's all red and scrunched up and I'm pretty sure when she starts to cry she'll make your ears bleed.'
'Perhaps, but she has your nose,' he said as he gently touched the little button nose that was perfect in every way.
'So that makes up for everything else?' Harry asked.
'Of course,' Severus replied but was interrupted but a knock at the door.
Remus and Draco had stuck their heads in, 'can we come in?' Remus asked.
Harry smiled and nodded, and they along with Hermione and Bill, came into the room.
'She's so beautiful,' Hermione gushed gently taking the tiny bundle from Harry, who looked like he was about to fall asleep.
'Who are you trying to kid Jeanie,' Draco said as he looked over her shoulder, 'the only thing the kid has going for her right now is that she didn't get Sev's nose.'
Harry started laughing softly at Severus' look of indignation.
'Congratulations, you get to be her godparents,' Severus announced to the two that were still taking in the small bundle. Both Hermione and Draco looked up shocked.
Remus then took the baby as Hermione and Draco hugged Severus and Harry.
'What's her name?' Remus asked suddenly, looking up at the new parents.
'Oh,' Harry blushed, 'um right, I'd like you to meet Kendra Lily Potter-Snape.'
Remus kissed her forehead gentle before quietly saying, 'Hello Kendra Lily, it's an honour to meet you,' the small bundle yawned and snuggled down into Remus' arms.
'Alright you've met the little bundle of joy, now mum and baby need to rest, everyone out. You can see them tomorrow.' Luna announced ushering them all out.
Draco snorted, 'Mum!' he repeated with a giggle.
'Yeah don't even try Mr. Due-in-five-months,' Harry called weakly from the bed.
'I'm sorry,' Harry said when they were finally alone.
'What are you apologizing for?' Severus asked as he gently placed Kendra in her bassinet.
'For ruining today,' Harry replied with a yawn.
'Today was most definitely not ruined, we can renew our vows anytime, but the birth of our little one is something that out shines almost anything else.'
'Almost?' Harry asked, letting Severus pull him into his arms.
'The only thing that even comes close is you, mo maileachan,' Severus replied kissing Harry softly, he was answered by a soft snore, Harry had already fallen asleep.
'I promise, I'll never leave and I'll always talk to you before doing something like that again.' Severus said softly kissing Harry again as if to seal the promise, even if Harry hadn't heard it.
Severus fell asleep planning the best time for them to renew their vows and where they could go on their honeymoon.
So the bad news is that this is the last chapter... The good news is that I am working on a sequel that will deal with Blaise and any lingering issues that I may have missed that you can feel free to point out nicely in a review!
This story was about Sev and Harry relationship so that part is done, the sequel, like I said will be Blaise and whatever else I can come up with. ;)
Thanks to everyone who reviewed, favourited, alerted, added to a community or bookmarked this story you have all been wonderful!
