"(Y/n)?"

Harry had left a little bit ago with Luna, and the others were just waiting restlessly in the room of requirement.

"Hey shrimp you alright?" (Y/n) asked, as Penelope pushed her way through the crowd towards him.

He scooped her up into his arms, hugging her.

"Umm (Y/n)?" Hermione asked looking shocked.

"Oh right shrimp this is Hermione, Hermione this is Penelope." (Y/n) told them.

Penelope looked over at Hermione from (Y/n)'s arms, smiling at here curiously.

"You're really pretty." Penelope said to Hermione in a small voice.

"Why thank you. So are you darling." Hermione said, smiling at her.

"Are you (Y/n)'s wife?" Penelope asked her. Hermione's face went a little red.

"Well... not yet but hopefully soon." Hermione said, smiling at (Y/n) wrapping his hand in hers.

"So can you be my mummy then?" Penelope asked her, taking her by surprise.

"Err well..." Hermione started looking up at (Y/n) who was nodding at her encouragingly. "Well if that'd make you happy Penelope."

"Yay!" Penelope cried happily, wrapping her arms around Hermione's neck and pulling her into a hug.

"Penelope where've your gotten to now?" Hermes called appearing from the crowd.

"Sis!" Penelope cried making her way towards Hermes, wrapping her arms around her legs.

"I found you!" Hermes said, scooping her up into her arms.

"I'll give you two a bit of time alright." Hermes said smiling at the two of them before walking back into the crowd with Penelope still in her arms.

"So care to explain?" Hermione asked him, a quizzical, yet amused look on her face.

"Well I found her while I was traveling, you know just trying to stay alive, and well I took her with me." (Y/n) told her.

"You kidnapped her!!" Hermione asked horrified.

"No! No!" (Y/n) said quickly. "Well sort of, but in my defense she's an orphan."

"And that makes it better?" Hermione asked him.

"Well I mean there's no one to file her as missing..."

"(Y/n) you can't just kidnap a child!"

"You don't get it Hermione, she had no one all alone, and well I could just leave her there she'd wind up dead!"

Hermione seemed to contemplate this for a second before nodding. "I guess you're right (Y/n)."

"But that's not important right now, you said you'd be her mummy."

"Well... I guess it's the same reason you took her with you, I couldn't just leave her alone you know."

(Y/n) pulled her into a passionate kiss. "So well adopt her then? After the wedding?" Hermione nodded happily at this, her face beaming with joy.

Suddenly his arm burst open as Treebeard jumped out of it. Hermione let out a shocked cry.

"Treebeard! We're in the middle of something here!" (Y/n) told him.

"(Y/n)? Are you housing a bowtruckle in your arm?" Hermione asked him, holding back a laugh.

"No I'm not!" (Y/n) said feigning anger. "I'm housing a friend in my arm."
