Extra Chapter 4

The Wedding

"I don't think I can do this, Sev'rus." Harry whimpered as Molly helped him with his robes. Severus sighed.

"Harry, once you are going down that isle, only Shade will hold your attention. This isn't for your friend, family, or fans. It is for you and Shade and your child."

Harry's hand laid against his stomach. A soft smile crossed his face. The panic left his eyes. HE was going to be a dad.

"Thank you, Severus." Molly sighed, fixing Harry's hair to a low tie, "he has been fretting for hours. He had dark circles under his eyes!"

"Harry, it will be fine."

And it was. Harry's eyes filled with tears as they said their vows. All the women and some men (Sirius) were crying when they shared a short, and sweet, kiss. Hugs and kisses were passed out during the dinner. Harry paused, looking up at the stars, knowing if a meddling old man and an evil overlord had gotten their way, he wouldn't be there now. He would be off on an adventure to kill Voldemort and be miserable.

But this life...

Harry's eyes traveled to where his husband was dancing with his mother. He accepted Sirius's hand as he too, was led back to the floor. Soon, he was laughing as he was passed around, ending with Shade.

This life was good.
