Chapter 40: The epilogue

19 years later

SADIE POV

"Alrighty," Fred yelled up the stairs "all Weasley children make your way to the vehicle. We are leaving in t-minus three minutes."

You could hear the distant sounds of shuffling as the children were rushing around getting ready.

"How many years have we been doing this?" I asked

"Well let's see Mercy is nineteen so nine years." Fred said doing mental math.

"And somehow we can never seem to get out of here on time." I sighed and Fred wrapped me in his arms.

"It will be alright love." He said kissing my head.

"I'm worried about Warren?" I said

"Sade, we have been over this." Fred said "Warren will be fine. He will have five amazing older sisters there for him plus a horde of cousins."

"I know," I said "but he is the only boy. I guess I just don't know what to expect from him. I mean with the girls I always knew what would happen. Girls are very predictable, but boys . . . not so much."

"Boys can be just as predictable as girls." Fred said "He will make friends, struggle with homework, find an amazing girl to gush over, have his heart broke, get it put back together."

"You're right," I said "I am just being stupid."

"No," He said kissing me gently "you're just being a mum."

I love my husband dearly. He had been way to good to me over the last twenty years that we had been married. We had six amazing children together. I really only wanted a few, but I was determined to give Fred the son he desired, and I finally did; Warren.

"We're ready dad!" I heard Casey yell from the front door.

It took Fred a year after Mercy was born to convince me to have more children. I decided a couple more couldn't hurt so I got pregnant again; this time with twins. Casey and Louisa will be starting their seventh year at Hogwarts this year. After Casey and Louisa we had Baylee and Nalaine and they will be starting their fifth year. After two sets of twins I really wanted to stop, but we still had not got a boy. So we tried once more and got Ginny Renee; she will be a third year this year. After that Fred and I agreed we had five beautiful children and that was enough. We stopped trying and continued living our lives. Then I accidently got pregnant. Finally we got little Warren William Weasley; my precious baby boy who was the apple of both his parents' eye. This would be his first year at Hogwarts.

"Alright," Fred yelled back to Casey and turned to me. "Is Mercy still coming?"

"She told me she was." I said "She knows how important this is to her siblings."

Mercy was a model student at Hogwarts. She was even head girl her last year. After graduating she became an unspeakable for the ministry and moved in with a couple of friends. She had a special guy in her life, but right now she claimed to be focusing on her career and not a serious relationship.

"Alright then let's head out." Fred said taking off towards the front door.

Dropping our kids off at platform nine and three-quarters was like a Weasley family reunion. Everyone was there dropping off their own kids, and so we all got together to talk.

Bill and Fleur were there dropping off their three kids Victoire, Dominque, and Louis. Victorie was born just a few months before Casey and Louisa. They had all become pretty close friends throughout their Hogwarts years.

Percy had settled down and married a nice woman named Audrey. They had two beautiful children Molly and Lucy. Molly was a fourth year, and Lucy was a third year.

George and Maddy finally tied the knot, and had three beautiful children; Braden, Pricilla, and Jade. Braden was a fifth year, Pricilla a second year, and Jade was ten.

Ron had married Hermione and they had two kids; Rose and Hugo. Rose would be a first year this year, and Hugo was nine.

Ginny and Harry were now married with three children; James, Albus, and Lily. James was a second year, Albus would be a first year, and Lily was nine as well.

My hope was for Rose, Albus, and Warren to become close friends.

I smiled as I saw a whole bunch of red heads standing around as we arrived.

"Hello Weasley Family!" Fred yelled

I noticed that of course Harry and Ginny were not there yet.

"Where's Harry and Gin?" Fred asked

"They're running late," Ron explained "I think that Al was a little scared."

"That's to be expected," I said "I mean having to leave home and be away from your parents, your family."

"I think he's scared of being in Slytherin." Hermione said with a smile.

I shrugged my shoulders.

"Mum!" I heard someone called and turned to see my eldest child running towards me through the crowd.

"Mercy!" I exclaimed wrapping my daughter in a hug. I never realized how much I missed my little girl until she was no longer with us.

"I thought I was going to be late," She said breathlessly "I overslept."

"Well we're waiting on Aunt Ginny and Uncle Harry." I explained and she rolled her eyes.

"As always,"

I nodded my head. Harry and Ginny always seemed to be the last one's to arrive to anything. I mean sure they had the youngest kid, but only by a month.

"So what's new with you?" I asked her.

She opened her mouth, but at that moment Harry and Ginny arrived.

"Finally they're here." Ron exclaimed.

The adults continued to talking while the kids all got caught up as well.

"Oh do you know who is dating now?" Mercy asked me.

"Who?" I asked

"Victorie and Teddy Lupin" She said and I gasped.

"No!"

"Yes," She confirmed "he told me yesterday on our lunch break."

Teddy was an Auror for the ministry. He and Mercy had become good friends at Hogwarts. At that moment James Potter came running back over to the adults.

"Guess who I just saw snogging?" He asked appalled

"Who?" His mother asked

"Teddy and Victoire"

"Oh isn't that cute," Lily gasped "Wouldn't that be cool if they got married."

"Hello," James said waving his arms around "this is Teddy and our cousin we're talking about here."

I rolled my eyes and turned back to my daughter.

"So you never said if there was anything new with you?"

"Well now what you mention it." She said blushing "Jeremy and I have decided to become more serious. He asked me to marry him, and I said yes."

I tried to contain my excitement. Mercy had been dating Jeremy off and on since her seventh year of Hogwarts. He had been head boy with her. I wrapped her in a tight hug.

"I am so happy for you." I said

"Thanks Mum," She said

"Hey Mercy," Fred said coming over to hug his daughter. "What's new with you?"

"Well dad," Mercy said taking a deep breath. "I'm getting married."

"Married?" He asked looking at me. "Are we ok with this?"

I smiled at my husband.

"I think we are." I said softly. The train blew it's whistle signaling for the children to get on.

Casey, Louisa, Baylee, and Nalaina gave us quick waves before boarding the train with their friends. Ginny gave us a hug before also joining her sisters. Warren seemed unsure as he looked to the train. He had been so excited, but this was the scary part getting on the train.

"You ok pumpkin?" I asked him and he threw his arms around him.

"I'm going to miss you." He said

"I'm going to miss you too buddy." I said holding him tighter. I stepped back so Fred could give him a hug.

"I know you'll be just fine son." He said "You're just like your old man."

I shuddered to think of my son being too much like his dad.

"Will you guys write to me?" He asked

"Every day," Fred said "even twice a day if you wish."

He smiled at us. Albus and Rose were waiting for him to board the train.

"Go on Warren," Mercy said "you'll be just fine. Hogwarts is the most magical place there is. Once your there you'll never want to come home. It's the greatest adventure of your life."

He smiled at his older sister before turning to join his cousins on the train. I tried to contain my tears as I watched my last baby board the train. I realized that he was the last one. After him there would be no more kids at him, no more first years, no more curious questions about Hogwarts.

"I should go," Mercy said "I have to be a work in like an hour."

"Oh ok," I said "Well you and Jeremy should come to dinner one night."

"We will mum," She said kissing my cheek "I promise."

With that she apperated and was gone.

"So getting married?" Fred asked "I guess it was bound to happen someday."

"I guess," I said "we just have to realize that our baby girl is nineteen and living on her own. She makes her own choices now; she's a grown woman."

"And you little boy is beginning what will become the greatest adventure of his life."

"I think we need to face it Mr. Weasley," I said jokingly "We're getting old."

"What?" He said mockingly "I think we only improve with age."

I laughed and playfully slapped him.

"I was being serious." I said

"So was I," He said serious tone in place. "Sade you could be ninety nine and you would still be as beautiful to me as the day I married you."

"Awwww thank you." I said touching my hand to his heart. "Thank you Fred for being my Knight in shining robes."

"Any time Mrs. Weasley," He said kissing me "any time."
