Epilogue
Rose
Four years later...
"Oh then this is us in Venice," Lily smiled at the picture on the Rialto bridge "I got some local to take it I rather like it. Then this is us in Rome Charlie had to take it that's why it's wonky."
"So how was Italy?" Rose smiled at Charlie and Lily sat together on the Potter's sofa. It was another New Years party and Lily and Charlie where showing their friends and family their pictures of their honeymoon in Italy.
"So how does it feel to be Mrs. Zabini?" Interrupted Alizia.
"Weird," Lily replied "and it makes me feel old."
"I'll be back in a moment Rose," Scorpius whispered and kissed her cheek as he stood up whist James made retching noises.
"James?" Rose asked, "How old are you?"
James smiled and took Scorpius' seat beside her "young enough to mess with you little cousin."
"Mrs. Weasley, Mr. Weasley can I have a word?" Scorpius asked Hermione and Ron who were stood talking to Bill and Fleur.
"Sure," Hermione smiled "please call us Hermione and Ron Scorpius you don't have to be so formal."
"Can we go in the kitchen?" Scorpius asked as he left the room and they all entered the empty kitchen.
"I would like to ask for Rose's hand in marriage," Hermione's face lit up but Ron scowled.
"No," he said.
"What?" his wife looked at him "they are crazy about each other they're in love."
"Rose makes her own decisions." Scorpius and Hermione broke into a smile.
"Thank you Hermione, Ron," Scorpius said rather formally.
"So?" Rose asked stood in the Potter's cold front garden about fifteen minutes later "what was so urgent?"
"Wait," he replied in a low voice and then one firework circled lazily into the sky giving a huge explosion followed by another and another until fireworks illuminated the land for miles around. "Rose," Scorpius said in a serious voice his girlfriend took her eyes off the sky to look at him.
"Marry me?" Rose could never told her feelings inside and her face split into a large smile.
"Yes," she nodded.
"I love you," Scorpius replied as he slipped a beautiful white gold ring with a diamond onto her finger.
"I love you too Scorpius Malfoy," she smiled as she watched the very last of the fireworks die away.

There is no direct parallel for Mr. and Mrs. Bennet but two couples take on their roles at different points. In the early stages of the story Teddy and Victorie take on the role for the scene that corresponds to the book when Mr. Collins proposes to Lizzy. Then Neville and Lavender take on the role during the scene that corresponds to when Lydia elopes with Wickham. Equally Hermione takes on the role of the both the Gardiners. Also there are several characters that have no parallel character in the book such as Albus Potter, Alexandra Benson, the Weasley clan etc. but I still loved writing about them all.
