I'm kind of sad to be finishing this story, but it needs to be done.. or I will never finish it, I know that I won't.

Thank you to everyone who has stuck by me through this story and reviewed and favourited you guys are amazing.

Twelve years later…

I finish writing the last line of my article, reading through it before nodding once satisfied, I fold it up before attaching it to Liandra's leg, watching as the owl flies away to Luna's office, if you had told me ten years ago that I would be working for the quibbler I would have laughed in your face and sent you straight to St Mungo's to get checked out, but it actually worked out pretty convenient, I didn't want to go out to work every day and leave the kids with some stranger yet I also didn't want to not work and be dependent on Severus for money. Luna was looking for someone to write a section on myth's and proper uses of potions and I jumped at the chance.

Severus enters through the door "honey I'm home" he calls out jokingly.

I giggle and stand up stroking my swollen belly "were Macie and Gracie okay about leaving?" I ask softly referring to my eleven year old twin girls.

"Baby they were fine too much like their mother, carrying their Hogwarts: A history books and chatting excitedly about friends they would make." I smile at that it's true the girls are so much like me, unlike little Damien, so much like his father always having his head stuck in a book, he likes to keep to himself for the most part too.

"You say that like it's a bad thing" I say with a roll of my eyes as I hit his arm playfully.

"Nope.. I love my little bookworm" he smiles as he picks me up, causing me to giggle and walks us over to the couch, pulling me onto his lap, I snuggle in against him resting my head against his shoulder.

"How about Scorpius did you see him?"

Severus' face immediately sours as I look up at him from beneath lowered eyelashes, he doesn't look happy at all "oh yes I saw the little.. he was looking at Gracie.. she's only a first year" I laugh softly I know all about Gracie's feelings towards Scorpius.

"He's only a second year darling and really you have no room to lecture on age gaps, how many years younger than you am I?"

"That's different.." he mutters moodily, I sigh but decide to let it go for the time being, when their relationship develops and I am sure that it will, we will discuss it more and I will be backing Gracie up one hundred per cent, Scorpius is a lovely lad, just a little arrogant much like his father, both of them really.

"It's not Severus and you know it, our girls are growing up and you just have to accept that"

He grumbles non committedly but I know that he is accepting it.. or at the very least on his way to accepting it.

"Who'd have ever thought we would be here" Severus says wistfully, I turn to look at him with one eyebrow raised. "It's just the years seem to have flown by" his hand comes to rest on my stomach, "look at all we have accomplished together."

I smile as I snuggle into him "there was never any doubt, we were meant for each other."

"Destiny."

"Yes" I agree quietly, I could never imagine being with another man.

"I just wish that we could prove it.. I wish we were married Severus"

"I know darling, I know" he says as he kisses my temple gently.

"I wonder what is keeping them, I have been waiting for that letter for over a week now" I say with a loud huff as I gaze out of the window.

"Darling they are probably busy, making friends and settling into their classes, I am sure they will write soon." I sigh softly as I know this, but that doesn't mean I have to like it.

"Mum will you take me to the library?" Damien asks as he walks into the kitchen, grabbing himself an apple from the counter and biting down on it.

"I'll take you this afternoon." I glance over at my son, sighing as I see his hair is once again flopping over his eyes… I really should make him get it cut, but he likes it that way and honestly he looks so much like his father this way. "I'm waiting for your sisters to send a letter."

"You know they will be in Slytherin right? Well except Gracie, she probably got Hufflepuff" he smirks…. Once again looking so much like his rather.

For a moment I smile, before pursing my lips "what have I told you young man, Hufflepuff is just as good as any other house, I do not wish to hear you speak another bad word about it.." but secretly I hope that they aren't in Hufflepuff and Severus has already expressed his views on those 'Inadequate dunderheads.'

"Yeah yeah whatever you say mum." He mutters, just as the owl flies through the window.

I run.. as best as I can with my swollen stomach. I practically rip the parchment from the owls clutches and I unfold it.

Hey mum.

Hogwarts it amazing! Sorry we didn't write sooner, everything has just been so hectic. And Gracie's got a boyfriend.

I chuckle softly as I think of Severus.. he will have a damn heart attack.. especially if it's Scorpius Malfoy.

Shove of Macie, he's not my boyfriend, we're just dating, please don't tell Daddy, we want to keep it a secret for a while.

Oh she has nothing to worry about I have no intention of being the one to tell Severus that his little girl is dating.

But that doesn't matter, I will tell you all about it when I come home for Christmas, classes are good, me and Macie are almost at the top of the class, there's just one annoying boy ahead of us.. Andrew Goyle.

A Goyle top of the class really?

He's NOT annoying.

Gracie's got a crush on him.

No I haven't.

Yes she has. And there's this one girl

She's such a little bitch, sorry mum but she really is, her name is Lyla Weasley and she was picking on us for no apparent reason.. she threw Macie's books on the floor, I know you told me not to use violence, but can I hex her at least?

I am fuming, positively fuming, I knew Ginny's child was going to Hogwarts but I should have known she was like her mum.

But don't complain, we can handle it I promise.

By the way we made Slytherin..

Love you.

Macie and Gracie.

Slytherin? Seriously, those girls were my only hope It is obvious that Damien will be a Slytherin, I'm not disappointed I'd just like one of my children to be a Gryffindor too.

I frown as Severus Snatches the letter from my hand.

SPOV

I glance down at the letter, reading over it, boys? I am going to murder those girls.. or maybe the boys, would be a better solution. Snatching up a parchment and quill.

Girls,

This is your father, I forbid both of you from dating any boys and if I so much as get a hint that you two are seeing anyone I will pull you out of Hogwarts so fast and lock you both in the basement until you are twenty five.. scratch that until you are forty. Do not waist all of you potential on little boys that are not worthy of you.

Are you trying to give your old man a heart attack, honestly I don't know what I'm going to do with you.

On the other hand I am proud of both of you on entering the noble house of Slytherin, well done girls.

And I mean it no boys.

Love Daddy.

Four years later…

I smile happily as I look up at my beautiful soon to be husband "Do you Hermione Jean Granger take Severus Tobias Snape to be your lawfully wedded husband?"

"I do"

"By the power invested in me I now pronounce you husband and wife, may you have a long and happy marriage, your body soul and magic be bound forever. You may kiss your bride."

Tears slip down my face as Severus leans down and kisses me softly, after seventeen years together we are finally married. I kiss him back my arms lacing around his waist as I lean in against him.

The rest of the day passes in a blur, but I never leave Severus' side. We sit on the top table watching as Macie dances with Andrew Goyle. Looks as though they have finally got together..

I watch as a flash of red hair storms on to the dance floor. "Get off my man you bitch" I watch in anger as she grabs my daughters hand.. so this must be the infamous Lyla.

"Fuck off." I begin to rise, Severus putting his hand on mine to stop me.

"She needs to do it herself."

"he's not yours he's mine and I do not appreciate you talking to me that way" the music stops and all eyes or on them.

"No he's mine, aren't you Andy? Why would he want to be with an ugly little bookworm like you" I wince at that, remembering being called that so many times, it takes all of my power not to run over and defend her.

"Why would I ever want to be with a slut like you, when I have the most beautiful, sweetest girl in the world." I can see Lyla's face turn red as Macie looks up at Andrew with adoration, I remember that feeling.

"Now go away and leave me alone."

"When we get back to school.. I will ruin your life.." Lyla screeches.

To my surprise Macie laughs as she raises her hand and punches Lyla, the sickening crunch of a bone filling the room. I smirk and glance over at Severus seeing him smirk too, "so like her mother."

Lyla runs off the dance floor with blood running down her nose as she cries, I almost feel sorry for her, until I remember what she said to my daughter and how she wasn't supposed to be here in the first place.

I smile as I see Gracie walking towards me holding Scorpius' hand.. Severus finally accepted their relationship together.

"Mum can I talk to you?" her eyes are stained red and immediately I begin to panic, I let go of Severus' hand, passing him little Bobby and make my excuses as we walk outside.

"What is it Gracie?" I turn on Scorpius "What did you do?"

"Mum I'm pregnant."

I gasp, Severus is going to flip.. my arms wrap around Gracie as I pull her close, hugging her tightly. I cannot find it within myself to be mad at her.

The end
