The brunette woke up, getting ready to see her dream of winning the House cup for her house break. She looked at Hermione who was just as mindlessly getting ready. The only upside was Raven being okay.

The three went to visit Harry there, while the girls were decorating his hospital bed to click a picture. Harry showed an album he got from Hagrid to Ron.

"It even has my mum and Dad, look."
"Hey, that's us."
"Yeah, now I've two ways to look at you, lot back with the Dursleys. Courtesy of y/n ofcourse, Hagrid said she gave copies of our photos to him."
"That's not all mate, When you were sleeping like log here, she --mphm."
"RON! Shut-up." Hermione shut his mouth, she didn't want her bestie to embarrassed. Her bestie who was currently decorating the area with lilies.

They clicked the picture, with Harry looking at the brunette, the brunette making a heart towards the camera, Ron glaring playfully at Hermione and Hermione smiling, hugging the brunette.

Then Madame Pomfrey shooed them away.
.....

The three arrived at the feast, silently sitting in the middle, saving a seat between Ron and Hermione. When Harry arrived, there was a sudden hush, and then everybody  started talking loudly at once. He slipped into the seat, saved by them and tried to ignore the fact that people were standing up to look at him.

Fortunately, Dumbledore arrived moments later. The babble died away. The brunette was glad or else she was going to punch the hell of those trash talking the Quartet.

"Another year gone! And I must trouble you with an old man's wheezing waffle before we sink our teeth into our delicious feast. What a year it has been! Hopefully your heads are all a little fuller than they were... you have the whole summed ahead to get them nice and empty before the next year starts...

Now, as I understand it, the house here needs awarding, and the points stand thus: In 4th place, Gryffindor, with 312 points, in 3rd, Hufflepuff with 352, Ravenclaw has 426 and Slytherin, 472." Said Dumbledore cheerfully.

A storm of cheering and stamping broke out from the Slytherin table. The brunette could see Draco Malfoy banging his goblet on the table. It was a sickening sight.

"Yes, yes, very well done, Slytherin. However, recent events must be taken into account."

The room very still. The Slytherins' smiles faded a little.

"Ahem, I have a few last minute points to dish out. Let me see. Yes....
First, to Mr. Ronald Weasley, for the best played game of chess Hogwarts has seen in many years, I award Gryffindor 50 points.."

Gryffindor cheers nearly raised the bewitched ceiling; the stars overhead seemed to quiver. Percy was showing off, the brunette hugged Hermione very tight. When there was silence again...

"Second to Ms. Hermione Granger- for the use of cool logic in the fire, I award Gryffindor 50 points."

The brunette and Hermione were crying into their hug.

"Third, to Ms. Y/n Scamander- for the most melodious violin ever played in Hogwarts, I award 50 points."

The house was in 2nd place. Gryffindor was cheering so hard their table was shaking. The brunette's brother was looking at her proudly.

"Fourth, to Mr. Harry Potter..For pure nerve and Outstanding courage, I award 60 points. Last but not the least... It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand up to our friends. I therefore award 10 points to Mr. Neville Longbottom."

The din was deafening. Someone standing outside the Great Hall might have thought some kind of explosion had taken place, so loud the noise was that erupted from the Gryffindor table. The Quartet was shouting cheerfully, hugging everyone in sight. The brunette was crying so much, happy tears. Neville was in schock; he had never won so much as a point for Gryffindor before. Malfoy looked stoned.

This. Was. The. Best. Day. EVER!!

"Which means, we need a little change of decoration."

With the decorations of Gryffindor in sight, everyone except Slytherin was in CELEBRATION!  The brunette went to hug her brother,

"I told you, I TOLD YOU. The year I come here, My house will winnnnnn."
"Yes, yes, You've made me very proud. Who knew you begging mum and dad for Violin lessons, would pay off someday."
The brunette with tears dripping from her eyes, with a big smile in her eyes told her grinning brother.
"Shut up, bro."
....
The brunette was glad she had her camera on her right now. Taking a picture with all the celebration, was something she would never forget.

Raven shouting along with Ron, Hermione talking to her brother. Goldie grinning at her while making a pose. Padma and Parvati telling her to learn Hindi. All of them looking at her with a look full of warmth.

This was what HAPPINESS looks like..
