"Forever And A Day"

CHAPTER 1



"What if?’ she thought while looking out the window. The rain upon the glass only complimented her melancholy thoughts. She was cuddling herself in her coat, while clenching something tightly in her hand. The sounds of people cheering in elation upon seeing each other after all these years echoed around the booths next door. Never has Hogwarts had an event such as this, a reunion of different classes. It has been 12 years since she has been at Hogwarts, yet in her eyes... not long enough. Lost in her thoughts she gazed out the window until she heard the compartment door open.

"Hello" said a soft kind voice "I couldn’t find an empty compartment and every compartment was full of people and I was wondering if I can sit here for the duration of the trip"

She smiled and nodded her head. As he strolled in both arms heaving heavy bags and before she could ask to help... CRASH... the poor individual fell flatly upon the ground. She couldn’t help to notice a ball fly out of his coat pocket. It was glowing.

"Is that a remberal" she asked kindly trying not to laugh as the man struggled to erect himself.

"Yes, I guess I probably forgot to tie my laces" said the young man as he stood up. "Neville Longbottom’s the name I graduated Hogwarts 11 years ago. I work as an herbologist for the Ministry. I’ve always fancied herbology at Hogwarts. And I thought to me-self I’m not a great wizard but I’m great with herbs and sometimes potions. I have a lot of friends in the Ministry who are wonderful wizards and witches, my friend Ron and his wife still fix up any mistakes I made and..."

"Ron Weasley?" she interrupted cooly.

"Why yes, we’ve been mate since Hogwart’s do you know him? His wife went to our school as well she was one of my mates too... I’m sorry for not asking earlier, but are you here for the reunion?" he said in one gaping breath.

She smiled and nodded at him and replied in a soft voice "12 years since..." Neville smiled and was about to continue what he was talking about until a red light glow from his pockets. She looked up at his perplexed expression. "What is it?" she asked with a small grin. He answered in a most embarrassed tone "Um... well... I forgot what I was talking about." an awkward silence filled the booth until both started to immensely laugh.. It was funny.

"Wait! I remember" he exclaimed. " I never asked your name Mrs." "It’s..." but before she could answer the train started to slow down and in excitement Neville yelled . "we're Finally here". Still gazing out the window the young woman waved her wand and arranged Neville’s belongings."Oh thank you Mrs umm" but before he can mutter another word she interrupted politely "May I walk with you or do you have a partner waiting in another compartment" he then replied "No I’m goin to meet’em inside the castle" he then said coolly " I would never let a lovely ladie like yourself walk unaccompanied." she smiled as they walk out the booth.

As the two walked off the train Neville called down a carriage for them. The Hogwarts carriages gave the two a feeling of remembrance of them returning to Hogwarts after a long summer. As Neville opened the carriage door he made way for the young woman. As the carriage moved along the young woman looked out the window still staring at the rain thinking deeply until her thoughts were interrupted by Neville.

"Are you married?" he asked politely. She shook her head softly and asked in return "Are you?"

He smiled and took out his wallet and showed her a picture of his wife and stated "Isn’t she lovely?" she smiled and softly said yes as he continued "she’s the chief writer for The Quibbler ya know, her father use to own it, aww my Luna how I love ya... she’s already at the castle she’s doing a report on the reunion and umm..." he stopped and notice that she staring at another picture he had in his wallet. "That's me at the end, there are the Weasley’s, the one holding Ron’s hand is his wife, there going to be at the reunion, thats Ron’s lil sister Ginny and the one with his arm around her is..."

"Harry Potter..." she said in mellow voice.

"Yeah that’s him, me and him are mates ya kno." he added boastfully "know’em?"

She nodded her head and asked him "Is he married?" and as he was about to answer the carriage stopped.... They have arrived at Hogwarts.

Chapter 2



As they stepped off the carriage their eyes glistened at the sight of the castle, as they walked they noticed many familiar faces and faces they have never seen before. The young woman’s eyes glowed, lost in the moment she didn’t notice something fall out of her pocket. Neville caught site of they object and tapped her on her shoulder.

"You’ve dropped something my dear." he said. As soon as she came to she quickly reached in to her pocket and whispered to herself "oh no!" before she could mutter another word Neville cried out.

"You’re a Veteran!!! An original I may add" he said excitedly. She looked at him in amazement as he closely examined the coin and added "I haven’t seen one of these since my 5th year, I knew I must had known you from some where. I was on the front line with Harry and Ron exciting yet dreadful times they was... where were you if I may ask."

"I was a healer on the field" she said softly. Yet again Neville interrupted her. "That’s odd... " he muttered curiously. " The coin still has a date on it, mine stopped showing the dates once Dumblebore’s Army was discovered.... February fourteenth..." before he could muttered another word the young woman grabbed the coin quickly out of his hand. Dumbfounded Neville was lost for words. The moment was silent until a voice from amongst the crowd called out.

"Neville my dear!!" said the voice. They watched as a skinny pair of hands was breaking ther way through the crowd towards them. The young woman quickly hid the coin back into her pocket . Instantly at the very same time Neville ran into the arms of the woman who made her way through the crowd. An odd looking woman I might add who held a wand behind her ears and a quill in one hand and a note book in the other

"Oh how I’ve missed you my dear" cried Neville. "This is my Lovely wife Luna, she works for the Quibbler ya know." He told the young woman.

The young woman smiled and Neville continued "Luna this is Mrs... Ummm"

"I know very well Who she is" Luna interrupted "How’s everything at St. Mungo’s Madame Healer?" she asked

The young woman smiled and nodded her head. Neville was yet again left dumbfounded but quickly turned to his wife and asked "Where’s Ron and Hermione?"

"In the Great Hall my dear" she answered. "Harry’s here as well.." she added softly while giving a deep stare to the young woman.

"Back from America!!" exclaimed Neville " This night is going to be splendid!" he then added.

"Go on ahead my love I need to talk to your friend here" she said as she kissed his forehead. "Oh, but fo be careful love Fred and George Weasley put a jinx on the..." but before she could finish her sentence Neville was jogging excitedly through the Great Hall door and before anything else ...CRACK... his pants where flipped inside out. The sound of laughter filled the air and the voices of Fred and George in unison "Neville WRONG BOTTOMS!!!!".
While the great hall was in an uproar luna strolled along with the young woman.
"How long since Madame Healer? Or shall I say Madame Director?" asked Luna softly raising one eyebrow.

"I’m still only the Head Healer at St Mungo’s, The promotion to Director from the ministry hasn’t came through yet..." the young woman answered sternly. ".. But it’s been 12 years since"

"I know all that my dear" Luna said cheerfully "I mean, How long since you’ve realized that you’ve loved Mr. Potter"

The young woman was left in awe and was speechless. Luna then continued. "Well none the less it took far too long... you should know that I know, that you know, that I know, that you know that you have been fooling yourself all these years... you’ve loved him far too long yet deny it... like he does."

But before the woman can say another word Luna walked away greeting other people as if the two weren’t having a conversation.

chapter 3

The woman slowly walked towards the great hall but paused near a big group of people. A newly constructed memorial was catching the attention of everyone who would pass by. Moving pictures of those who had fallen victim to the Dark Lord and his Minions covered this memorial. Not a eye was dry as every one passed the picture of Dumbledore centered in the highest honor. The young woman slowly looked at veterans and former friends who she had knew who had fallen at the hands of the dark lord, a moment later she notice a two pictures side by side, she passed and touched them softly both giving them equal remembrance, and for both... an equal amount of tears. she them whispered to herself "Why did I come? Why must they be placed side by side?".

"Is that you?" asked a voice from behind the young woman. She turned around and in excitement yelled. "Marietta!!" they firmly hugged each other and started to chat.

"I have heard that you were here, Rumor has it you head healer at St. Mungo’s and soon to be the Director of Healing Practitioners!!!!" said Marietta

The young woman smiled but her expression seemed as if the news wasn’t all that interesting. But the reality was that only the best healer can be the director for the ministry. But still the young woman smiled .

"Come the Gala will start soon, I will save you a seat with the others they will be elated to hear of your arrival!!!" said Marietta excitedly . Marietta trotted over to the door ahead of the young woman. The woman stood by the door hesitant to enter. She watched as more familiar faces passed by her some hugging her before they entered. Still she only watched as people entered the great hall.

"Who are you afraid to see?" asked a kind soft voice.

"My favorite mistake... I guess" said the young woman in a kind yet sad voice. " I guess I’m more afraid of memories than of the person. Or more so the memories he may have of me" Then slowly she turned to she whom she was speaking to and before her eyes, a pregnant woman, smiling at her.

"I thought it was you" said the pregnant woman

"Hermione Granger?" asked the young woman

"Weasley. Hermione Weasly" the pregnant woman replied. "I’m due next month, it’s going to be a girl!" the young woman congratulated Hermione and wished her well with her new family.

"Who ever your afraid of can’t prevent you from going inside" said Hermione " Come I’ll walk with you" arm in arm they walked into the great hall. The hall was filled with festivities hundreds of former students attended the event and at the table where Marietta was sitting a group young women screamed in excitement as Hermione dropped the young woman off at her table.

"I’m off to my table. I will see you around tonight won’t I?" asked Hermione.

The young woman smiled and said "But of course" they hugged and the young woman thanked Hermione for escorting her in. Hermione was soon walking over to her table where her husband was waiting.

"There you are Ron!" said Hermione in an irritated tone.

" I was worried sick love. Worried to death I was!" cried Ron as he pulled out the chair for Hermione. She kissed him on the forehead and all was well. Everyone was in awe at how amazing the great hall looked.

"It feels as if this was my first time seeing the hall" said a lovely young woman with red hair.

"I agree with Ginny, the hall looks utterly splendid!" said Neville happily. Holding Luna’s hand who was standing next to him

"Where’s Harry" Luna asked Ginny

"He’s looking at the memorial, he’ll be right in" Ginny answered

"Well I’m headed to my table now love" Luna said as she kissed Neville on the forehead. Neville turned towards Ron and Hermione "That’s the woman I arrived here with" he said pointing at the woman whom Hermione walked in with.

"Is that who I think it is" asked Ron

"Yes Dear."she answered. "...she’s the Head Healer at St Mungo’s"

"She was a healer During the war, that was the last time I saw her, it was, them death eaters were ruthless I can't imagine all she had to heal and seen" Ron stated. As he went on Neville interrupted.

"Harry!!" as Neville said Excitedly everyone in the hall turned and look at the entrance of the great hall. Harry Potter walked in limping slightly while holding a cane. His hair was still messy, but his face has matured with stubble around his chin. The hall roared with the monstrous sound of applause until He found his seat next to Ginny and beside Ron and Hermione.

"Harry what happened to your leg?" asked Neville curiously

Harry smiled and said "would you believe that in other countries Muggle’s and Squibs can jinx you by pushing a needle into a doll of your likeness..."



"Voodoo is what the Muggle’s call it" added Hermione

"Scary thing that voodoom is" Ron said in a frightened tone.

"Voodoo my dear, not voodoom" Said Hermione

"clever thing that voodoo thing is, I took a needle to the knee, still hurts but I’m fine, being an Auror for the International Defense Against the Dark Arts does have it’s draw backs. But I Love my job." Harry said with a enormous smile. And so the group continued telling stories of what they have been up to in Harry’s absence. Ron and Hermione argued about whether to name the baby Harriet or Lindora. Yet from a across the room amongst the cluttered sound of people reuniting after all these years. The woman whom Hermione escorted earlier sat staring in the direction of Harry avoiding any chance of making eye contact as people around her talk about old times. And soon after the Gala had started.

Chapter 4

"Attention er’body" said a deep monstrous voice with a heavy accent. "Welcome back ta Hogwart’s" the speaker said. An to the surprise of many of the attendant the speaker was none other than..

"Hagrid!!" yelled many voices in unison from the Gryffindor in excitement.

"Thank ye, thank ye" said Hagrid as he bowed to the audience. Many people there were surprise to see how well he had aged. He still looked the same with exception of his beard being twice as long and very, very grey.

" I would like to take this opportunity to give a moment a silence fer er’body who can’t be here ta-nite, and fer all those Veteran’s who fought with us against the dark lord and for those who feel by the hands of him and his minions. We dedicate ta-nite to er’body on the memorial and thank them fer letting us be here ta-nite"

As Hagrid continued, the great halls lights dimmed in a solemn fashion and tears began to fall from many of the attendants eyes. Ron and Hermione held each other close while sobs were heard from different areas around the room. But soon the the feast began and tears faded the lights lit brightly as food and drinks magically appear on top of every table. And soon the mood went from being sad to utter joy and excitement.

As everybody feasted Speakers from different houses gave speeches about the times they spent at Hogwart’s, the memories they had at the school before the war and after. All the speakers gave wonderful speeches, yet none that compared to the caliber of the speech that Harry Potter gave. As he spoke tears fell and the audience was incredibly silent in order to hear every word. During the speech the young woman felt chills along her back and in her coat she clenched the Coin that she had kept all these years. Memories of her time at Hogwart’s rushed her mind as Harry spoke. As Harry concluded his speech the hall roared with applause as every table gave him a standing novation as he limped back to his seat the young woman’s eyes followed his every step. As Harry went to his seat Ginny gave him a monstrous hug and kiss on the cheek. The young woman felt a surge of fear upon seeing this as everyone sat down two ladies sitting two seats away from her were gossiping.

"I heard they got married" said one woman to another while pointing to Ginny. The two started whispering in an obvious manner which made more people want to know more.

Upon hearing this, the young woman closed her eyes in utter pain as if she was being tortured . She can feel her heart beating in agony and breaking more than it already had been. Without her noticing the next speaker was approaching the stage. Then the speaker started.

"I would like to take this opportunity to give appreciation to all the quidditch player through out the ages." the speaker said proudly. "I would like to have all the former quidditch players to arise so we may take this time to honor you as our finest athletes. Be you a Seeker, or Bludger or whomever...Stand! "

The woman upon hearing this became more frightened she didn’t want to be noticed and especially not by Harry . Beside her, her friends told her to stand because, they all knew she use to be on their house team. She refused. She watched as every former house members started to rise. Ron and his sister Ginny and their Twin Siblings George and Fred and even Harry Potter rose in Unison. The young woman still was refusing to get up but slowly and surely she rose. The the speaker started once more

"Let us give a round of applause for these fine athletes."

The roar of applause and whistling filled the air the young woman lost in the applause smiled and waved to the audience as did everyone else who was standing. She looked around to see the smiling faces until she felt a chill go down her spine. She quickly turned to her right and saw Harry looking directly at her and smiling. She quickly sat down as soon as the applause ceased and held back the tears she so long to let out.

Soon after, the hall filled with music and people left there seats and started to dance, those who did not dance walked from table to table greeting old friend, classmates and acquaintances. However, the young lady sat alone only speaking to those who stopped and recognized her and shortly conversed with her. A few rows beside her she watched a group of men sharing war stories and showing off battle scars. Some of which she recognized as being healed by her, which she thought was somewhat amusing. And so she smiled and sipped her spiced cider until she felt some one sit directly beside her.

"I remember you from quidditch and from the D.A. practices" said Ginny happily

The woman felt her heart sink and yet again holding back her tears, she knew she was speaking with the one whom is suppose to be married to Harry Potter. But she smiled back at Ginny as not to be rude.

"No hard feeling about you know who I hope? Is he well?" asked Ginny.



"no hard feelings what so ever, He is happy nothing more nor less." the woman answered calmly. "So how are you and Harry?" the young woman bit her tongue and realized what she had just asked, wishing she hadn’t jumped to that question so soon.

Ginny smiled and answered kindly. "Wonderful! He’s the best thing to have ever happen to me! I hope someday he’ll find the right woman to settle with. He’s terribly lonely. Which is why he travels on assignment so much he’s so difficult sometimes. He just won’t admit he’s lonely."



The woman’s jaw dropped in amazement. "But I thought you two were... I mean... I thought... you know, I mean...married?" the young woman stammered.

Ginny gave a boisterous laugh and answered. "Heavens No, I mean we gave it a try but, we’re to platonic he’s like another brother, I mean we love each other but surely not in that way."

The woman was lost for weird but before she could say another Luna had arrived.

"Excuse me madame but I believe you are needed in the hospital wing immediately" said Luna calmly to the young woman. The young woman looked surprise and turned to Ginny who looked severely worried as well. So the woman stood up and told Ginny that they will continue there conversation as soon as she returns. So the young woman and Luna walked towards the hospital wing.

"The schools healer left briefly to pick up more supplies and will be back shortly, she asked if I knew any healers on grounds and I told her I knew of you which is why we are here and which is why you are here now" said Luna in one big breath.

"Is it deathly serious?" asked the woman in a calm manner.

Luna grinned in suspicious way and said. "It is very serious when something that vital is broken and only you can mend it my dear. It bend and breaks so easily yet heals very slowly."

The woman was utterly perplexed but before she could ask more they had arrived at the hospital wing.

Chapter 5



As soon as they arrived to the hospital wing the woman rushed in to see who need help, to the young woman’s surprise the room was empty. The woman turned to Luna and before anything the door to the hospital wing slammed shut. The woman ran to the door but was unable to open it. The woman reached in to her coat and pulled out her wand. "Alohomora!!!!" cried the woman waving her wand. Yet the door would not budge. Luna had put a spell on the door and the door was able to be open. She walked over to a bed and sobbed and thought to herself "I knew I shouldn’t had come.." her thoughts continued she thought maybe people haven’t forgave her for what she had done, but soon she heard footsteps coming near.

"Where are they" cried a man’s voice in the most worried and frightened tone. She turned over to look and saw the hospital wing doors fly over. Harry was limping as fast as he could throught the door.

"Ron! Hermione are you..." but before he could utter another word the door behind him slammed shut he turned and to try and open the door but with no avail he reached into his coat and pulled out his wand...

"I tried, it didn’t work..." said the young woman. Harry then put his wand away and walk towards the woman who hid herself under the shadows.

"Luna said that Hermione was having her baby!!" exclaimed Harry.

"She said that a healer was needed immediately here so I came as well" said the young woman.

" I know your voice..." said Harry "Who are you?" he then asked.

"Please don’t come nearer Harry." she cried her voice shaking nervously. Harry already confused and frustrated agreed feeling that this was a cruel joke.

So he sat on the bed next to her but still unable to see the woman’s face.

"You know.." He started as to begin a conversation "I’ve been to this wing many times during my stay at this school. How long since?" He then asked

"12 long... lonely years" she said shyly.

"I’ve been gone 11 years" he replied politely. "not long enough I may add." as he said this he laid in the hospital bed to relax his weak leg. The woman looked over and smiled although her smile was hidden by the shadows only the illumination of the moonlight lit the room and the raindrops upon the windows scattered the light in ton odd patterns upon the dark floor.

"Might as well relax" he said in a happy tone. "Whoever’s pulling this prank is going to leave us here a while"

They both laughed but the woman started to ask shyly. "You said not long enough. May I ask why"

Harry then moved him self to a sitting positioned and explained. "All my life revolved around this place every morning and night I dreamt of being here forever and yet I’m back and I feel there was so much I could have done here if... well, you know, if all that stuff didn't happened" he sighed a sigh of relief and continued. "But now 11 years have past and I felt my years here weren’t long enough. I made wonderful friend whom I love dearly and who care for me somewhat" he said sarcastically due to the predicament they currently are in. They both laughed and he then continued "Romantically my life was a whirlwind here. I never realized how much I kind of needed it but I was too absorbed with ... well you know as well as anyone else the story."

"Yes I do..." the woman said as she sat on the edge of her bed with her back towards Harry.

"How bout you Mrs are you married?" he asked politely as not to offend her.

"No." she said quickly. "I too had a hectic love life" she added with a small laugh at the end. "Was there any regrets you had with any of your romantic encounters here?" she added in a worried tone.

"Well there was one" Harry said. " I don’t know if you know her... well everyone knew her but she must be as old as you, so maybe you know her.... but... well nevermind I don’t want to bore you" he said.

"No! Please continue." she added. "We’re going to be here a while so might as well make the most of it."

Harry smiled and continued. "Well it was my 3rd year, I met her, the most beautiful girl. From another house, I may add, but as the years went on she and I never worked out especially in my 4th and 5th year. my 4th year, if you remember the tri-wizard games then... well no need to go into detail but, I knew then it wouldn’t had been the right time to confess my feelings for her. And 5th year if you remember that difficult year, everything that could had been between us, was ruined by so many things. And everything after that year, as we all know, was complicated due to the war against the dark lord. I had so much to deal with as did she but being so young I never realized how much we truly needed one another. If you understand what I mean."

"No, I understand." said the young woman. "More than you can imagine"

Harry then continued. "After that I more or less blocked her out of my mind. During the war I didn’t think of her much but she was in the battle if I’m not mistaken, but we never had a chance to speak not even once."

"What are your feelings toward her now"asked the woman painfully.

"All in all..." Harry began. "...after all these years I thought I hated her, she could have never been happy with me nor I with her. But...." as soon as he said this the woman dropped something and it rolled back in Harry’s direction.

"What’s this?" he said. He slowly rose out of the bed to pick it up.

"Please no!" she cried in terror. But before she knew it harry was holding it up to his face.

"You were in my class?" Harry Exclaimed as he held the coin. "The date!!" he then yelled.

"Yes Harry." she said sadly as she toward him. " I put a spell on it so I always remembered you."



He forced himself of the bed to get to her but stumbled under the sharp pain from his injury. "Please don’t Harry!" she said as she rushed by his side. Their eyes met and tears swelled in the woman’s eyes.

"I’ve always loved you Harry" she said. "Even before Cedric" she then added. He turned away hiding the tears of confusion he was now starting to shed.

"AFTER ALL THIS TIME!!" he cried.

" i was young Harry!" she cried. "We both had so much to deal with!" she tried to explain. "I know you must hate me but please understand I knew you hated me and with all the rumors about you..."

"CURSE THOSE RUMORS" he cried out in anger. " I’ve lied to myself and to everyone I know and said that I cared for you not after you got with Michael. But I lied. Year after year Once the defeat of The dark lord was over I spent every lonely night wishing I had you and wishing I’ve told you that I loved you since the moment I saw you during our first match my 2nd year. But now I know I’ve waited in vain. You’ve hid your feelings for me just as long as I did for you and left me miserable! "

"But you said you would be happier without me!" she sobbed.

"I thought I did, but like you... I grew up." Harry said quietly. The moment grew silent. The rain grew heavier the only other sound that filled the air was the happy sounds of people cheering at the gala. Yet alone both of them sat in the shadows... silent

Chapter 6

Seconds felt like hours to them. The Gala was suppose to last all night so no one would suspect anything about there absence. Alone in the room they sat quietly. Harry still holding the coin and the young woman sitting quietly beside him.

"I’m sorry." Harry said softly.

"I am too." said the young woman.

"You know..." Harry said with a silly grin on his face. "That day in the café. I was trying to hold your hand. But those silly cherubs throwing confetti and the other couples made my feel uneasy and more nervous."

The woman smiled at Harry and turned her face toward him. " I know I overacted that day and about the whole thing with Marietta. I knew I should have understand your place in the matter"

The rain grew heavier and the moon glowed brighter. Harry slowly grabbed the woman’s hand and placed the coin in her palm. He cupped his fingers around hers and they sat not uttering any words but absorbed in the moment. Until the woman broke the silence.

"I need to tell you something..." she said. Although it was obvious that she didn’t want to tell him another word but Harry interrupted her before she can continue.

"Irregardless of what your about to tell me. Because I have a feeling I know it will be difficult for me to hear. Just remember, That I will keep you dear in my heart as I hope you will too. What ever your about to tell me just remember I will be on what ever side you wish me to be on. In the morning when you wake just call upon me and I’ll be there. In the light..." But as soon as he was about to finish she kissed him. A tear fell down both their eyes and the woman smiled.

"No matter where you are Mr. Potter you will be in my heart." she said gazing into his eyes. "And whomever you decide to marry I will be happy and you’ll forever be in my heart. On every corner of it. The morning light is all I need to remember you my dear harry."

Harry smiled yet in his eyes it was obvious that he had a bit of sorrow still haunting him. But still with all his strength he threw himself up without the assistance of his cane. He held the young woman close.

"Whomever I end up with, will never take the place of you in my heart. And wherever I am, I will think of you. Even if I long for you I will now be happy even if I can’t have you." as he whispered this into her ear the door flew open and standing there was Ginny, Ron, Hermione with her hands hold her back supporting the weight of her stomach, Luna holding Neville closely and big group of people with camera’s.

"We’ve been looking for you two all night!" said Hermione excitedly.

"Come on Harry, people have been asking around for you. The reunion ends tomorrow evening and we have a lot of people to catch up with." exclaimed Ron.

Harry smiled. He reached into his coat and grabbed his wand and said "I’ll be there in a moment." and then with a flick of his wrist the doors of the hospital wing shut.

"In the mornings... I’ll be there, if not in person then in spirit." Harry said to the young woman.

"In every corner of my heart where there is room... I will reserve them for you..." said the woman softly. the held each other firmly as if it were the last they would see each other. They released one another and walk towards the door. As soon as they reached it the door flew open and the Schools healer was behind it.

"We’ll I never!!!" said the woman who was wet and trying to catch her breath.

"What happened?" asked Harry and the young woman in unison.

The Healer trying still to catch her breath tried to explain. "Well a woman said that a someone in the east tower fell down the stairs and landed on a shrinking potion that he had in his pocket and was stuck between a crack in the steps and I had to find him but then I realized I was out of anti-shrink potion which I could had sworn I had just bought and then I had to go out in the rain until the same woman stopped me and said he was found and that a healer from St. Mungo’s had fixed him. So now I’m back. Are you the healer?"

Harry and the young woman looked at each other and laughed.

"What’s so funny!!" exclaimed the old healer.

"Nothing ma’am, I’m the healer and this is the poor chap who I had to re-grow" said the young woman trying hard to refrain from bursting into laughter. And so they left.

Chapter 7



The night went, on slowly people left to go to sleep in order to have enough energy for tomorrow’s events. People filled the hallways heading to assigned corridors. The married couple we’re assigned separate rooms in order to maintain their privacy while others head to their old dwellings. Some of the attendee’s stayed up the whole night talking about memories of the school while the rest slept comfortably. The young woman and Harry sat with Ron and Hermione and Ginny in the Gryffindor common room with many others. They we’re laughing at Neville who was sleeping curled next to the fireplace. The young woman felt tired and told Harry she was going to bed as soon as she stood up Luna whom was up interviewing attendee’s walked in.

"May I walk you?" she asked the young woman. The woman nodded and they went.

"Why did you do this" asked the young woman the instant the left the common room. As they continued walking Luna smiled and turned to her.

"You know very well why I did." she said in a sinister tone. They had reached the corridor leading to the young woman’s sleeping quarters and the young woman bid Luna a good night.

"Wether you feelings are mutual or not as long as there are feelings... they need to be shared." Luna said as she walked away. The woman closed the door and went straight to bed.

The next morning the woman arose and found a messenger owl perched out her window. She opened the window and read a letter attached to it’s leg. As soon as she read the letter the leaped out of her bed and changed. She ran to the great Hall where she saw many people eating breakfast. She ran to her table and saw her old friend Marietta. The note held in her hand she had to tell her old friends the Great news.

"Marietta I did it!!" the woman cried in excitement.

"Did what!" Marietta said in anticipation.

"The Ministry made me the Director of Healers. They want me to go to the Ministry to sign the papers and make it official!" said the woman. Everyone at the table cheered and those who were closest to her hugged her. News of this spread through Hogwarts fast and people as they passed the young woman congratulated her on her achievement. Getting ready to leave, she wanted to say goodbye to Harry and tell him of her promotion. She looked and looked but could not find him. She found Ron and Hermione and Ginny in the Great Hall but no sign of Harry.

"Where’s Harry?" asked the young woman

"Haven’t you heard?" asked Hermione. She motioned the woman to sit down and so the young woman sat beside Ginny as Hermione continued. "When you went to bed last night the Ministry alerted him to go on an important mission in Russia. He left soon after receiving the message."

The woman held back her tears and thanked Hermione for telling her the news. The young women told them of her promotion and they all congratulated her and soon she left.

"It’s for the best..." she thought to herself as she waited for the carriage to take her to the train station. She thought of the night in the hospital wing and remembered their promise to each other. She reached in her pocket and pulled the coin out and held it firmly in her hand. Soon a hand tapped her shoulder and handed her a note.

"He gave me this right after I left you" said Luna with Neville at her side.

She opened the note as fast as she could and read it..

"No matter who I’m with, I am yours, remember the Love of Your Life may not be with you the rest of your life... but still... they are yours for eternity. I’ll be here in the sunlight and in the glow of the moon my dearest.

Forever and a Day,

Harry Potter"







She held the note close as the carriage to the station arrived for her. She hugged Neville

good bye and thanked him for the company and he smiled. Shee turned to Luna and hugged her firmly.

"Thank you...for everything" she whispered in her ear.

"Your welcome my dear... most importantly your hearts are mended and the both of you ... especially you can move on." said Luna softly.

"Good bye." the woman said as she stepped into the carriage.

"Good bye Cho." said Luna as the carriage went away. Waving as the carriage went into the distance. Luna took Neville by the hand as they walked into the castle. They turned and gazed outward to look at the sunlight beaming upon the front of the castle.

"Was that Cho Chang?" asked Neville dumbfounded as usual.

"Yes dear... Cho Corner to be exact." replied Luna

"As in Michael Corner? But she told me she wasn’t married!" Neville exclaimed.

"She isn’t..." Luna said softly. "...She’s Michaels widow."
