Glad to see you liked the last chapter, cuz here comes the epilogue, the very last one for this fic. I just want to say thanks for all the reviews and favorites, I'm sorry about some of the mistakes in the fic but I don't have the time to go back and fix them. Again thanks for the reviews and I'm sorry about the waits I put most of you through but thankfully I can finish this fic at last.

Anyway this is the epilogue with a good time skip into the future, for Arielle is off to Hogwarts, and you see more of Harry and Hermione's new family.

I don't own Harry Potter.

Enjoy!

Eleven years later:

Hermione's P.O.V.:

"MUM! I can't find my jacket!" We were about to leave our home to King's Cross Station and my obnoxious daughter, now thirteen years old, was going everywhere making sure she had everything for her third year at Hogwarts. She spent half the night packing her trunk, but dear Merlin she went through it five times already to make sure everything was there.

"It's on your bed where you left it!" I called from my spot downstairs. After we received news of finding out I was pregnant Harry and I decided to get a house after the wedding and the baby's birth. We found a beautiful little home in the country, not too far from the city but lovely enough for the kids to play.

We had a small wedding, just family and friends, in the Weasleys' backyard where Fleur and Bill had their wedding. It was beautiful, lily flowers everywhere, red and gold colors of Gryffindor, me in my mother's wedding gown and Harry was so handsome in his dress robes. Arielle was our little flower girl, and of course Teddy was the ring-bearer, both of them were so adorable.

"Is she ready yet?" Harry came in with our eleven year old son Jamie, short for James, who of course was beginning at Hogwarts. Jamie was a shy little boy, but Arielle just loved him to death when he was a baby. She dressed him up in her doll clothes, tickled him when he was sad, hell she practically smothered him as a big sister.

"Almost."

Things were wonderful now, after Jamie was born Harry started working as an Auror, and was now the head of a team. Though it was more paperwork than being out, he didn't complain since he was able to look at old files of all death eaters and criminals in Azkaban.

I on the other hand had decided to take up a job second in command to Kingsley, as his undersecretary and it made my family proud. I was in law, and I had helped adjust many laws along with many rights of house elves and other magical creatures. It was my dream job, and I would do anything and everything to put balance back into our world.

"Mum…?" My little boy seemed so nervous.

"What is it Jamie?" he walked over and just hugged me. "Oh sweetheart."

"Mum…"

"Sweetie I know you're nervous, but you'll be fine." Harry chuckled.

"Hey he's still a kid until he leaves for Hogwarts." Jamie had my light-colored bushy hair, but he had Harry's eyes, Lily's eyes. His full name was James Sirius Potter, and though he was shy he had quite a prankster streak in him.

Arielle had loved Hogwarts, she was one of the smartest kids in her year like me and a Chaser on the Quidditch team. She had been put in Ravenclaw, much to my and Harry's shock but who would've thought since she was far to intelligent to be in Gryffindor.

"Mum! Dad!" Arielle came rushing downstairs with her trunk behind her. "I'm ready!"

"Do you have Eros with you?" she slapped her head and went back upstairs. Eros was Arielle's pet garden snake, whom she found in the back yard after he hatched from an abandoned nest. Turns out she could speak Parseltongue like Harry, and so could Jamie, I just hoped it wouldn't affect our son making friends in school.

"Honestly how is she so smart but she forgets things so easily?" Harry laughed.

"Well she's our daughter, a little of both goes a long way." Arielle came back down with a small cage containing Eros.

"That's everything, now can we go?" my little girl, she was ready to begin school. Oh where had the years gone, she and Teddy were both in the same year, and even if Teddy was a few months older and in Gryffindor the two were great friends together.

"Let's see, you have your clothes, books, wand, cauldron, snake, trunk, jumper, snacks, anything else?"

"No that's everything." How she had grown up so fast, her dark hair was now long and pulled back in a French braid, she had gotten so tall, oh before I knew it she would be graduating in no time.

"Let's be off, we're going to meet up with Remus and Severus." while Harry grabbed her trunk I took Jamie and we headed for the car. Though Harry wasn't accustomed to driving I had managed to persuade him to take a driving test so we could use it in the city instead of disapparating.

We made it to the car, packed up and Harry drove us towards the station. I saw the Lupin car in the parking lot, and there I saw Remus, Severus, Teddy, and their new addition little Sarah Nymphadora Lupin, named for Tonks and Remus' mother, standing near the doorway. Sarah was nine, two years younger than Jamie, born from Severus of course. When they found out they were having another child both men were overjoyed, and like Teddy she showed no signs of Lycanthropy.

She was our goddaughter, as Teddy was our godson and we loved them both like our own. Our children loved them, and they would all be great friends.

"Uncle Remy! Uncle Sev!" both kids ran to the men and embraced them. Harry grabbed the cage and trunk while I held onto Jamie. We walked up to greet them and Harry placed Arielle's things on a trolley.

"Good to see you kids, are you ready?"

"Yeah!" Arielle and Teddy cheered.

"Let's get going, the train leaves in thirty minutes." The kids followed us into the platforms; the busy train station was as packed as ever. Thankfully we wouldn't have to wait on a line, so we could get to our platform 9 ¾ just as it was ready.

"Aren't you going with us dad?" Teddy looked up at Severus.

"I'll be there later son, you don't have to worry." Severus had taken up his old Potions position, figured it would be less dangerous than DADA.

"Wait, you mean Remus is going to watch Sarah by himself?" they shook their heads.

"While I work during the day Andromeda will take care of her and school her, when my shift ends I'll pick her up and we spend the afternoon together."

"I'll write to her of course, I wouldn't want my little girl to worry." Sarah hugged her daddy and kissed his cheek.

"I wanna go too." She whimpered.

"Oh Sarah don't cry, you'll be at Hogwarts before you know it." We soon entered the platform, and rushed through the barrier. The kids led their trollies over to the luggage car, and walked with us through the crowd of people already wishing their children goodbye.

"Hermione! Harry! Professors!" all of us turned to see Ron, Lavender and their twins coming over to meet us.

"Hello Ron, Lavender you look wonderful." Lavender was pregnant with their third child, a boy from what I knew, since they already had three girls, the eldest being Penelope and the twins Kelly and Shelly Weasley. Penelope was a bit of a late bloomer, but she was still starting with Jamie. She had her father's bravery, and her mother's sweetness, but she didn't go overboard like they had when they were younger.

"Thanks, I just can't wait for this one to be born my ankles are the size of cantaloupes." Ron slipped an arm around her.

"You're still beautiful to me Lav." Lavender giggled.

"Oh Ron you spoil her." Ron's job at the Auror office had been fine, but he took up a weekend job at the joke shop with his brothers because he had a lot of mouths to feed. Lavender helped too, since she became Madame Bones' assistant/protégé, and she loved the twins just like her little girls.

"Hey she's my wife." Penelope and Jamie watched the other children board the train, and I saw my son shake a bit.

"Mum, what if…what if I'm not put in the right house?" he was just like Arielle when she first began.

"Why would you ask that?"

"I mean, I know Slytherin isn't really bad anymore, and I know that Hufflepuff is a nice one but…what if the hat doesn't put me in one you like?"

"You don't have to worry about that son, it doesn't matter which house you're in to us. We'd still love you no matter what."

"Even if I end up in Slytherin, or Ravenclaw?" he blushed a bit.

"Well you are smart like a Ravenclaw, but you're slick like a Slytherin so it could go either way. You're our boy Jamie; we won't disown you if you're in a different house than Gryffindor."

"Yeah lil bro, come on I'm in Ravenclaw maybe you can join me." he turned to her.

"Really?"

"Yeah, I can show you the ropes." He seemed to like that.

"So you'd really let me be in any house?"

"You got it kid, the same goes for you." Harry pointed at Penelope.

"Absolutely, times are different now." Ron hugged Penelope, she was so much like him, the hair, the face, the eyes, but thankfully she was around Molly a lot.

"Harry, Hermione." Draco and Pansy came over with their son Scorpius. "Is everyone ready?"

"Just about, we were giving the kids a little advice on houses." Scorpius was a sweet young man, and from what I could see he seemed to have a small crush on Penelope, probably because they'd known each other since they were in diapers.

"ALL ABOARD!" we heard the conductor shout and the engine honked.

"You ready?" Jamie nodded.

"I'm ready."

"We'll write to you soon, you and Arielle. You be good and don't forget to introduce him to Hagrid Arielle."

"I won't, tell Ginny I hope she does great in her next match in Bulgaria." After we were married Ginny went on to play for the Holyhead Harpies, and she became a popular pro. She came back every few months to see her family, and she loved being around the kids but of course she wasn't the maternal type so a life of settling down wasn't on her list yet.

"We will, be sure to tell us all that happens." We exchanged hugs and a few kisses, and after a few more goodbyes to the others the kids boarded the train. They sat in a car where we saw them waving, we waved back, and as the train rolled away I started thinking about all that had happened in the past decade. With all my memories of Harry and I together, everything had turned out much better than I had hoped.

Harry and I married, with two children, our friends and their children, our families all together; we were finally at peace.

I felt Harry squeeze my hand as the smoke from the train disappeared long after it had taken off.

"They'll be alright." I turned and shared a kiss with him.

"I know, but I'll miss them." He wrapped his arms around me. Everyone else bid farewell, and left to go back home. We stood there for Merlin knows how long, but I almost wasn't ready to leave just yet.

"Come on Mione, let's head home." He started pulling me towards the barrier.

"It's going to be quiet without them." I heard him chuckle. "What?"

"Well maybe we can start on a third, if you love the sound of children in our house." He wiggled his eyebrows at me.

"Harry James Potter are you suggesting we go all Chippendale right here in King's Cross Station?"

"You said it not me." I slapped his arm.

"Certainly not here, but why not the car?" I wiggled my eyebrows at him and he just pulled me down for a kiss.

"I love the way you think, last one there has to bottom!" he ran through the barrier but I caught up with him just in time.

Life was grand again, and now I could only imagine what games Harry would think of once this one was done.

The End.

Thanks again for the reviews and favorites. Sorry about the mistakes, but this fic is just going to stay how I made it. I have started a new slash fic and if you're interested feel free to look it up.
