"Did you get the owl yet?" Ron asked through a mouthful of food.

"What are you talking about?" (Y/n) asked sipping his tea. He had at a nearby cafe with Harry Ron and Hermione.

"From the ministry."

"Yeah that really narrows it down, it's not like we get a ton of those everyday." (Y/n) said rolling his eyes, and taking a bite out of his jafa cake.

"About Muriel's will." Ron told him. His great aunt had died a few weeks prior.

"No... was I supposed to?" (Y/n) asked him confused.

"Well you'll be getting one soon, I didn't bloody believe it but she wrote you into her will, something about reminding her about her youth."

(Y/n) smiled at this. He knew exactly what she was talking about. After the war had ended and he and Hermione had finished their last year at Hogwarts he would go over to Muriel's at least once a week and duel with her.

"Ah makes sense." (Y/n) said.

"What'd you do to get written into that old bat's will?"

"Like she said I reminded her of her youth I used to go see her almost every week and just duel with her, she really seemed to enjoy it."

"Yeah well she left you a bunch of stuff so be ready for that." Ron said, picking up his second sandwich.

"How's Penelope doing?" Harry asked leaning back in his chair.

"She's doing great! She can't wait to head off to Hogwarts!" Hermione told Harry and Ron.

"Yeah the little Shrimp's practically bouncing off the wall." (Y/n) said smiling fondly. "She can't wait to meet all the magical creatures in the forest."

"Guess she's just as crazy as you then." Ron said as he finished his second sandwich, brushing the crumbs off his hand.

"Oh speaking of families how are the Dursley's Harry?" Hermione asked him, taking him by surprise.

"Them? Well I mean I don't really keep in touch that much... well other than Dudley." Harry said scratching the back of head. "Still get birthday cards from them though."

"And how is the Dud-man?" (Y/n) asked him, pulling out his wallet to pay for the food.

"Not too bad actually he's getting married in a few months." Harry told them.

"And you didn't lead with that?" (Y/n) asked in shock, handing the waitress the money for their food, along with a few extra quid tip. "Who too?"

"What you really think it's someone we know?" Ron asked.

"Well get this, he's actually marrying a witch." Harry told them, leaning in and lowering his voice.

"Well I'll be, maybe old dogs can learn new tricks then." (Y/n) said.

"Good for him." Hermione said smiling. "I hope he's happy."

"But it gets better." Harry said, leaning in closer and speaking even quieter. "The girl he's marrying... is Cho Chang!"

"Seriously!" Ron and (Y/n) said in unison as Hermione smiled at them.

"Well I'm glad for him." Hermione said getting up pulling on her coat. "We should probably head back now, it's already been an hour."

"Yeah suppose you're right." Harry sighed getting as well, as (Y/n) pulled his coat on.

"If we have to." Ron groaned getting to his feet slowly.

...

(Y/n) sat back in his chair as he got back to the office, looking miserably at the papers on his desk.
