The Tune Of Time

Chapter 29

A/N : Hello Everyone. As some might have noticed that I didn't update the last chapter. As it turns out that I have an exam coming next week and therefore I won't be able to make updates until the said exam is over. As a reader, I don't like waiting for chapters since long delays between chapter updates make me lose the interest. And, I don't expect such things from my readers. Therefore, I am finishing this story. It may seem abrupt and crammed as I will put what I wanted to write in five different chapters in one single one, but I thought it as my responsibility to give everyone a proper closure as far as this story is concerned. My Apologies.

As for all the readers who adore Remus and Hermione as a couple, I will be writing and updating a new Remione fanfic from Jan 1st 2021, It will also be a time travel fanfic , however there will be Dumbledore with negative light. Another story I was working on and will be writing in the same timeline will be different from these time travel fics , will come out at the same time.

I hope everyone will like those two as well. Till then, I beg for your forgiveness and thank you for staying with this story for so long. This was my first fanfiction and the positive way everyone have accepted it, encouraged me to write more. Thanks a lot.

Hermione raised her head to look at Remus , he was holding her waist strongly as they sat in front of the maternity ward of St. Mungos. Sirius was lying in another bed of his own having fainted as soon as Lily's water broke. James was sitting on her other side, holding her hand tightly as if it was the only thing keeping him afloat. She knew she would have bruises on both her waist and hand with their grips but didn't complain. She was scared herself.

The past few months had been insane. Once they had escaped the Malfoy Manor, Dumbledore had decided that it was about time to bring the war to an end, with Narcissa's help they had easily had their hand on the diary. Lucius Malfoy was killed by Voldemort very soon since he had allowed them to flee as well as the treachery of his wife. Hermione could never forget that day.

As soon as they were back at the headquarters and Remus had hugged Sirius and ensured he was fine, he had grabbed her hand and flooed them to their cottage. Hermione knew he would be angry and was waiting for a I told you so. She had even seen him looking angrily at her several time since their rescue. However she was surprised when he hugged her tightly. It made her feel worse. She could tell the way his eyes were swollen that he had cried and it broke her heart to think that she had caused him such pain.

"I am so sorry." She had said her own eyes tearing up.

He had pulled away from the embrace and looked down at her.

"Marry me." He had said abruptly.

"What !" Hermione had surely not expected this.

"I know I don't have a ring right now and I am not on my knees. I don't even have a fancy script to say in front of you. The only thing I know is that This last twenty four have been the most miserable ones of my entire existence. And it helped me realise that I can't live without you. If something had happened to you, I would have died."

"don't say that." Hermione said.

"It is the truth. I don't want to wake up for a morning when I don't get to see your smile. I don't want to go through a day if it doesn't promises that you will be in my arms by the end of it. Hermione I didn't know the extent of my love for you until now. It was like I had lost all the air my lungs. I need you in my life. And I would have never forgive myself for not asking you. I want to Marry you Hermione Granger. I want to cherish you for the last of my life. I want to make you smile and be the reason you laugh. I want to have hoards of children and grandchildren with you. And then when we are old and wrinkled I want to be buried beside you." He finished his speech.
