~Bella's POV~

It's been seven weeks since we killed Voldemort. Seven weeks since we lost Fred, Remus and Tonks. I was a victory for all, but also a dark day so we didn't have a celebration. Instead we returned to our homes.

The Weasley's returned to the Burrow; Harry, Hollie, Draco, Emberlee and the babies returned to Littlehampton; Lucius and Narcissa returned to their mansion and the Order disbanded. Bam and Jake returned to the reservation but since Jake imprinted on Renesmee, we see him every day. We only see Bam maybe once a week since he proposed to Leah a few days after returning. Ben went home but has since moved in with Hollie, they got engaged and she's just found out she's pregnant. Hermione found her parents and restored their memories. They're back living in her old house but Hermione has been staying at the Burrow to comfort Ron in his grief.

Today is thanksgiving, and Renesmee is sitting by the window, watching out for her cousins. Emberlee and Draco are coming with their children, who they were reunited with a few days after the battle at Hogwarts. Hollie and Ben are coming also but Harry is spending a quiet thanksgiving at the Burrow.

I hear voices but Renesmee doesn't move.

"Aren't you going to go and say hello, sweetheart?" I ask her.

"It's only Aunt Hollie and Uncle Ben."

"Don't sound too disappointed," Alice says.

"It's not the triplets. You know nobody else matters when the triplets are coming," I remind her.

Ben and Hollie walk in but Renesmee remains by the window.

"Hey Ness," Hollie says. "You not gonna come and say hello?"

I just shake my head.

"I take it Emberlee and Draco are coming?" Hollie smirks.

I don't say a word.

"They're here, they're here," Renesmee screams before she races down the stairs.

I follow to greet my older sister, actually to take her young daughter off her. Nyla was born only 3 months after Renesmee but being a witch baby, she's still only a year old. I only had a one year old for a few weeks so I fuss over my niece whenever I have the chance.

Renesmee leads her three cousins up the stairs, almost knocking Rosalie over as she comes down.

I know what she wants.

"Don't you two start fighting over my daughter again," Draco warns.

I keep hold of Nyla and we all go upstairs.

During dinner, we all sit round the grand table Carlisle had purchased for this occasion and somehow it fits in the living room with all the furniture moved out, and we all manage to squeeze round it.

"Attention, everyone," Carlisle says. "I would like us to take a moment to remember all those we lost to Voldemort. Fred, and Remus, and Tonks."

"Sirius," I say.

"Mad-Eye," Ben says.

"Dobby," Hollie says.

"Dumbledore," Edward says.

"Mum and Dad," Hollie says.

"Myrtle," Ben says.

"Barty Crouch," Emmett says.

"Cedric," I say.

"Neville's parents," Emberlee says.

"Charity Burbage," Draco says.
