Celeste and Oliver had gone to the wedding in April, and they weren't disappointed at how beautiful it had turned out. Obviously, it was a simple ceremony, but it was still beautiful. Celeste almost cried at how happy she was for them. Oliver simply snapped a picture for them to be able to remember the moment forever.

After the wedding, Celeste and Oliver went back to Grimmauld place to tell Mrs. Weasley and Sirius about it. Even though Celeste and Oliver hated Sirius, they knew he'd want to know. He was obviously happy for his best friend, and he had wished he could've gone to see Lupin and Tonks marry.

The next morning, Mrs. Weasley, Celeste, and Oliver went to the King's Cross Station to pick up the children. Celeste took Ginny, Oliver had Ron, and Mrs. Weasley took Harry. The twins were learning to do aparation, so everyone assumed the twins would get to Grimmauld place in one piece. Once they were at Grimmauld place, the twins ran up to their room to finish the paperwork for their new shop.

Celeste and Oliver had been right about the other shop going up for sale close to Celeste's, and the twins purchased it almost immediately. They had to do quite a bit of paperwork, which Celeste helped them with when she could. They also had to have quite a bit of product finished before they started setting up the place.

Celeste planned to help them set up when they needed her. Anyhow, that night there was an Order meeting. Lupin and Tonks had arrived, and Celeste couldn't keep the grin off of her face. She was so happy for them, and she doubted she'd ever feel any different.

"We believe your manor should be safe to inhabit once again." Moody commented, and Celeste smiled.

Celeste and Oliver were finally able to leave Grimmauld place. She wouldn't have to deal with the hatred that filled her in the house, and neither of them would have to deal with Sirius anymore. Obviously, she and Oliver would be setting up a lot of protection charms, but they were finally able to go back home.

"We haven't gotten anymore updates from our insider, but I believe the Death Eaters are laying low for now. They're building up to something larger, and we don't know yet what it is."

Celeste's heart pounded, but she didn't know what to do. She needed to contact Draco and make sure that he was fine. If something happened to him, and she wasn't there to save him, she'd hate herself forever. Obviously, she was terrified for what could potentially happen to her little cousin, but she didn't know what all she could do to help. She just knew that she had to stay hidden, and not go under the radar of the Death Eaters or the Dark Lord.

Once the meeting was dismissed, Celeste and Oliver ran up to their room to collect their things. They wanted to leave Grimmauld place as fast as possible. They didn't care how that made them look, they wanted to be gone, and they wanted it now.

"Are you coming with us?" Celeste asked Lupin, as she placed her bag on the table.

"No, uh, Dora and I are going to stay living with her mother," Lupin replied,"Besides, I know you and Oliver want your own space. You two haven't had a home alone once, and you two deserve to be able to live alone, without having to worry about another mouth to feed." He added, and Celeste smiled.

"You're just giving them the space and time to make another mouth to feed, or a dozen." Sirius commented, causing Celeste to scoff.

"You just can't stop, can you?" Celeste questioned, shaking her head,"This is exactly why Oli and I want to leave. I'm tired of these comments and glares." She said, as Oliver nodded in agreement.

"I'm glad you two are leaving! I'm tired of having to act like I care when you two are around!" Sirius exclaimed, making Celeste narrow her eyes at him.

"Why don't you two go ahead and leave?" Lupin suggested,"It'll give you time to settle in before supper." He commented, and Celeste nodded.

"I hope to see you all again soon," Celeste said,"and let the kids know they're always welcome." She added, before she and Oliver disappeared.

"Why do you always have to say something rude to her?" Lupin asked,"She's your daughter, and she doesn't deserve your hate." He commented, making the other man roll his eyes.

"She shouldn't have been so harsh to me. I've tried, Remus, and she can't see past her selfish attitude. She's always been so selfish and full of herself." Sirius retorted, causing Lupin to simply sigh.

Celeste and Oliver were so happy to be back at their manor. Celeste had laid her bag near her bed, and practically threw herself on to it, basking in the feeling of the silk bedding and calm aura. Oliver kicked off his shoes and laid down next to her.

"I'm so happy to be home." She murmured, causing him to chuckle.

"I'm going to check on Sweeney." Oliver replied, and Celeste nodded.

When Oliver left the room, he found the house elf already in the kitchen making supper for Celeste and Oliver.

"Where is Master Lupin?" Sweeney asked, and Oliver smiled.

"He moved in with his wife. I'm sorry we've been gone for so long." Oliver replied, causing the elf to smile.

"Professor Dumbledore told Sweeney where Miss Celeste and Master Oliver were." Sweeney answered, making Oliver nod once more.

Celeste soon joined them in the kitchen, and she practically cried when she seen her house elf. She was so happy to be home, and everything in the manor made her happy. She was away from the toxic environment she and Oliver were in, but she didn't have a choice then. She was just glad they were finally able to get out of there, and they were finally able to be happy and less stressed out...
