Chapter 21

Last Time:

Cedric lands outside the maze and just breaks down. He tosses the cup to the side like it is cursed. He hears a scream and crying around him. He just pulls Alex's dead body into his arms wishing he would have told her to get to the cup as soon as they landed in that graveyard and they would have came straight to the castle.

It wouldn't have made a difference Cedric. Cedric hears Alex's voice in his mind, Thank you for taking my body back to my family and Hermione and Ron. Tell Hermione, Max, Harper, Zeke, mom and dad I love them. Tell Justin I am sorry. Tell Harry he is amazing and I love him. Also tell him that he will be an excellent boyfriend and husband to whoever he dates and marry.

I will. Cedric thinks to Alex. It's the last thing he could do.

Now:

"Where am I?" Alex mutters to herself as she looks around to see green grass, blue sky, a beach, a mansion and so many adults, kids, grandparents and pets running around laughing and playing games.

"You're in heaven." Alex jumps and turns around to see a tall lady standing next to a tall guy. The guy looks like an older version of Harry but with the lady's eyes. Alex thinks.

"I'm dead?" Alex asks.

"Yes you are." The guy answers.

"Huh... it was fast." Alex comments thinking back to how she died.

"That's the power of the killing curse." The lady smiles.

"I guess. Who are you guys?"

"Oh, crap. Sorry. I'm Lily Potter." Lily apologizes.

"I'm James Potter."

Alex stands there confused for a moment before it dawns on her.

"Are you Harry's parents?"

"Yes." Lily and James nods.

"That's cool." Alex smiles, "I'm Alex Russo."

"It's nice to meet you Alex." Lily wraps her right arm around Alex's shoulders.

"It's nice to meet you too."

~A&H~

Hermione sits in Alex's room exactly one year after she arrived to New York. Cedric did pass on the messages to the family, and Justin broke down blaming himself for Alex's death.

Hermione curls herself into a ball on Alex's bed and cries herself to sleep.

"Hey Hermy!" Hermione looks behind her to see Alex running up to her from the beach.

"ALEX!" Hermione pulls Alex into a hug and cries into her shoulder.

"Hermy, you can't blame yourself for my death. I know you are blaming yourself. It's no one's fault. I just came from Justin's dream and he apologized your hurting me. I'm completely over it. But as I told mom, dad, Justin, Max, Harper, Zeke, Ron and Harry is, 'you have to keep living'. Just because my life has ended it doesn't mean that yours is over. But you have to keep living for me. That Voldemort guy is back. I know Harry never told you, but Moody took him when everyone was focused on my dead body and Cedric and Voldemort is back.

"The world needs to be saved and it needs to be saved by you, Ron and Harry." Alex looks Hermione in the eyes, "I know you are grieving, but I am happy here in heaven. Take a look around. There's a beach, pets, kids, adults, grandparents, and so many things to do. I even met Lily and James Potter and they are amazing people. When you see Harry, tell him his parents love him and believe in him. But this isn't the last time you will see, hear and talk to me. I'm in your heart and I'm watching over you. I will even stop by in your dreams unless HE has another plan for me." Alex smirks silently telling Hermione that HE does have another plan for Alex, "But keep living for me Hermy. Please promise me you will."

"I will Ally. I promise you I will." Alex gives Hermione one last hug and a kiss on the cheek before disappearing.

Hermione sits up and lets out a sob. She touches the spot where Alex kissed her cheek and feels the cold. It was like Alex was really there.

~H&A~

Five years later Hermione, Ron and Harry arrive to Godric's Hallow and heads to the cemetery. At the cemetery, Hermione sees a girl with straight black hair holding a little girl with sandy brown hair next to her. Both girls are kneeling next to a grave whispering back and forth.

"Why are they at my parents' grave?" Harry whispers to his two best friends.

"I don't know." Ron and Hermione whisper as one with their hands laced together. They walk over to the two girls and they both look up.

Hermione's eyes widen in shock.

"Alex?" Hermione whispers.

"Hey Hermy." Alex smiles, "I told you HE had something planned."

"Al, who are these people?" The little girl asks.

"Ramona, this is my cousin Hermione Weasley, her husband Ron Weasley and their best friend, who is my ex-boyfriend, Harry Potter." Alex tells Ramona, "Guys this is Ramona. HE has decided that since we were both killed by Voldemort before the war, we both deserve to live our lives as long as we are together as a family. Besides Ramona and I are best friends and she is my little sister. HE also sent us back because he thinks you guys had enough suffering as it is."

Harry looks at the used to be twelve year old girl, who he fell in love with. Sure, he dated Ginny Weasley, but ended it just before the war. He and Ginny got together in his sixth year but when they were dating, he realized he is in love with Alex. He hasn't dated anyone since. Hermione and Ron got married last year and started dating in their seventh year during the war.

"How old are you guys?" Ramona asks as they all stand in front of each other staring.

"We're nineteen. You?" Ron asks.

"I'm eight and Alex is fifteen." Ramona answers.

"How old were you when you were murdered?"

"I was five." Ramona frowns, "My parents and little brother survived but I didn't."

"I'm sorry." Hermione whispers, "It has been five years since you died Alex. How come you only aged by three years?"

"I honestly have no clue. I guess when you are in heaven; you age slower than an average human?"

"Huh... that's pretty cool."

Alex nods and looks at Harry.

"So you only dated Ginny then broke up. I never got why or why you never dated anyone after her." Alex states, "So how are you doing?"

"Better now that you are back." Harry smiles, "I never dated anyone because I realized something when I was with Ginny."

"What was that?"

"I love you."

And that is the end of the story. Just to clear things up, yes Harry and Alex get back together, and Alex goes back to her family. Justin, Max, Theresa and Jerry stays in New York after Alex's death and never got involved with the war. But that is the end of the story.
