Teddy Lupin lay on a hospital bed. The first thing that he remembered was Dementors. Even before opening his eyes, his hands searched for his wand. He then felt a hand on his', and quickly opened his eyes.

Lily sat on the bed, Victorie on a chair beside the bed, James and Albus were standing at far corner. His eyes searched for his grandmother, but then he remembered her death six months ago. He looked at her sister and smiled.

"I'm going to kill you if you die!" She muttered under her breath. He chuckled, knowing well enough how worried Lily would have been.

"Lily-flower, Do you actually think I will die so soon? Who will hit you when you get your OWL's result?" he asked teasingly, which rewarded him a punch on his arm. He looked over at Victorie, who said, "Mum was so scared when she heard the news. I am sure she loves you more than she me, Louis and Dominique."

Teddy smiled, and the door burst open. Harry entered, followed by Ginny and George. Teddy looked at him and said, "messed up your birthday, didn't I Godfather?"

"Well, it wouldn't be my birthday without a lot of happening." Replied Harry. James smirked at the remark. The, a healer entered and checked Teddy. Finally, she said, "Lots of chocolate and proper care. You are free to go now."

"Well that will happen. Dad's cake is chocolate!"

…

Mrs. Weasley, even after being so old, had managed to clean the Potter House spotlessly. Of course, Angelina, Fleur, Audery and all her grandchildren had helped.

Like every year, Harry's birthday party only had his close friends on his birthday. That included the Weasleys, Longbottoms, Scamenders, the whole DA, and a few of his children's friends. looked at the time-telling watch beside the wizarding clock on the kitchen's wall, and said, "Hurry up you lot! Harry will be here any moment now, and so will be the guests!"

As if to prove her statement true, The floo turned green. Molly looked at it expecting Harry, but was shocked for what came next.

Draco Malfoy stepped out of the fireplace along with his son, Scorpius. He looked around, hoping to see someone familiar, and then saw a lot of calm, he acknowledged her.

"What are you doing here?" asked. Scorpius went forward and said, "ma'am, I am Albus' friend. He invited us. We are right on time."

"Unfortunately, can't say that for the others!" Draco could not resist giving a remark. The floo turned green again, and Hannah and Neville stepped out. The two once rivals locked their gazes, and acknowledged each other with a bow.

"Rose!" Scorpius exclaimed, which brought the adult's attention back into the present. Rose smiled at Scorpius and asked, "How have you been?"

"I've been good. You?"

"Same here." After a pregnant pause, Angelina came into the room. Draco looked at her and said, ""Johnson. I must say I am surprised."

"it is Weasley now, Malfoy. Seems like you have been out-of-date!"

Draco was about to comment back when the floo turned green again, and the Scamander family walked into the room.

"Rolf."

"Draco."

It seemed as if the two adults knew each other well. Soon, the house was in turmoil as the Scamander twins, Lorcan and Lysander, along with the Weasley kids and Scorpius began playing a very loud game of exploding snaps. Every now and then Fred Jr would drop one or more dungbombs at one of the many places. When Dudley Dursely entered the house with his family, his children were dragged away. Despite being muggels, they knew enough abot the magical world.

And as soon as Harry and the rest entered the house, the confusion was even greater. Rolf and Draco had cornered themselves to talk about something. George had taken the nest genereation Mauraders and blurted out stories from mauraders time(that he had forced out of Sirius and Remus) and from his and Fred's time at Hogwarts, making Dudley furious as his children sat with the trouble-maker. Rose and Scorpius were sitting at a table, discussing some potion, while Ron eyed them suspiciously.

Teddy had sent Victorie away, promising he would be fine. Harry went and sat down beside him. Teddy said, "Oh I totally forgot, Godfather. Happy birthday." Harry chuckled and said, "Thank you."

"I am sure you got the Boggart!"

"That was you?" Harry burst out laughing, and so did Teddy. As they recovered, Harry said, "Better not tell Ron!" He reached out to his pocket, and gave Teddy a photograph. "Consider it a return gift."

Teddy turned the photo and was shocked. He saw a splitting image of his father, minus the scars. He looked up and asked, "is that really me?"

Harry nodded. Teddy looked back at the photograph. Once, when he had had a accident in school, and was unconscious for a week, McGonagall had remarked he looked exactly like his father when asleep. He had begged her to take a photograph if it happens again.

Teddy smiled and said, "I will never lose it."

Ginny escorted everyone to the backyard, and Harry was shocked to see his cake. Firebolt and Nimbus 2000 were kept facing each other at the table, with Hedwig on them. He gave his wife a long kiss till he heard a loud groan from everyone. Then, he heard somebody shout, "IS ANYONE THERE?"

"WE'RE HERE 'MIONE!" Ron shouted back. She came dashing into the backyard, making Teddy lose his balance, and he fell down on the tip of a cake. Everyone burst out laughing, and Hermione muttered an apology for being late and causing such trouble.

As the cake was cut and passed on, Harry heard Draco say, "You don't expect me to eat, do you potter?" he smiled to himself. Teddy too was saying, "Had to fulfill my mom's absence, didn't i? But Lily, i amsure the doctor did not prescribe that much chocolate!" Ron and Hermione were fighting in a corner. "She's not a kid anymore Ron!'"

"But…"

"I started having feelings for you in our fifth year!"

"Yet…"

"Please Ron let…."

He did not hear rest of the conversation. He saw Luna and Neville in another corner, discussing Threstals.

"Why don't they eat Veg?"

"they like meat." Luna replied and they continued talking about it. The children had all left for a match of Quidditch outside.

….

As everyone left, Ginny slept on the bed, with Harry stroking her hair. He finally said, "Have I ever thanked you enough?"

"not really. But I don't mind." They chuckled like little children, then Ginny said, "Found a little beetle in our backyard."

"So I am going to have a very…What kind of party in tomorrow's Daily Prophet?"

Ginny said, "I have no idea. Maybe one with all Dark wizards, since you had the Malfoys over. Maybe you're the nest Dark Lord, and i am having an affair with someone."

They kissed each other, and soon went to sleep, earning Harry another conversation with his dead friends. All was well.
