Hermione's p.o.v. 

Christmas 1999

Ginny came and sat by Hermione, she resembled an over excited puppy who had too much energy and was ready to explode.

"What's with you?" Hermione asked, Ginny 's current state was very entertaining to her.

"I got a letter from Mum shortly after we arrived, apparently just after we left Bill and Fleur turned up, they thought they were going to catch everyone together at the last minute." She paused, becoming even more fidgety and excitable, "Fleur is four months pregnant, I'm going to be an aunt!" She almost squealed.

"Oh that's amazing, I'm so happy for them!" Hermione exclaimed.

Victorie Weasley arrived on the 2nd of May 2000, when Hermione and Fred went over to visit Teddy seemed very taken with her. The now two year old said that he would make sure to look after her, which everyone was bemused about.

Theo and Luna got married a few months after the arrival of the new Weasley and decided to travel the world together. Hermione frequently received postcards and patronus' from the two of them updating her and Fred about what they had recently seen and where they were heading next as well as the next time they'd be back in England.

Shortly after that George proposed to Angelina, they were getting married in a week and decided to move out of the flat. They moved to a small cottage in Hogsmeade near the other joke shop the twins owned. Fred felt that it just wasn't the same living above the shop in Diagon Alley without George, so he and Hermione were planning on moving into a cottage on the coast, a few miles from Shell Cottage. Between Hermione, Harry and Andromeda they had decided it was easier for Teddy to live with Hermione and Fred and they could visit whenever they liked to see Teddy so there was less disruption in his life. Fred had wholeheartedly agreed immediately when Hermione had asked, the pair of them loved him like their own.

Ron and Pansy were taking their time, not rushing into anything and being responsible about getting to know each other properly, surprising Hermione greatly because she pegged both of them as people who leapt into things and thought about it after. It seemed like they were maturing, the idea of which amused Hermione to no end. In her head she would always see Ron and the hot headed idiot that used her as an owl to convey messages between him and Harry during the Triwizard Tournament. Ron had moved out of the Burrow and was currently living with Harry at Grimmauld Place, which had never looked better. Although he argued it was only temporary. He now worked as an Auror for the Ministry of Magic and was slowly but surely rising up the ranks. Pansy had started her own wizarding fashion line that was incredibly popular, she had a shop on Diagon Alley so she and Hermione saw each other very often for tea or a butterbeer.

Draco and Harry were as in love as ever and thinking about moving in with each other, although where was the problem. Harry wanted to stay in Grimmauld Place because it was the only thing he had left that resembled Sirius and the only place he had ever felt properly safe, other than the Burrow, Hogwarts was still a toss up in his eyes. Whereas Draco wanted to stay in Malfoy Manor, his mother had it redecorated as soon as the war was over and enjoyed demolishing the drawing room in which Hermione had been tortured. Harry in the end won the fight, making the argument that he was sure Draco didn't want Narcissa knowing about everything going on between the two of them as of course she wouldn't be moving out any time soon. So Draco yielded, although wasn't too happy about Ron being there either. Harry became the Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts and he already had the reputation of being the greatest DADA teacher there had ever been, Remus coming in a close second.
