At the end of the summer after Harry's final year at Hogwarts, he was at the Burrow, helping Ginny pack for her final year.

"Just remember to write," Harry reminded.

"How could I forget to write YOU?" Ginny said with a giggle.

"Good point," Harry agreed as they walked down the front lawn. He took her bags, loaded them in the Weasley's flying Ford Anglia. All the rest of the Weasleys were in the car, waiting.

"See you at Christmastime," Ginny said, giving Harry a kiss. She climbed into the car, and he watched it fly away, above the clouds. It felt like she would be away forever, but he tried to remind himself that it would only be until Christmas, before he Apparated back to his house in Grimmauld Place.

Back at Harry's house, he had been put to the task of being Teddy Tonks' caregiver every weekend. He whipped up puréed peas with the flick of his wrist, and he sat down to feed the little 2-year-old. He then realized that Teddy had run off!

"Teddy!" Harry said as he ran around the house, laughing, trying to find the little trickster. When he found him, he started to feed him. Soon after the very first spoonful, Teddy spat his whole mouthful out onto Harry's lap. He stifled a laugh as he cleaned up.

"Kids." Harry mumbled. He wondered what it would be like if... or when... he and Ginny would have children. After he finally put Teddy to bed, he was exhausted, but suddenly couldn't wait to see Ginny again. Only a few more months until Christmas break...
