Nestled in London sits a cozy little house, the home of Jory Stonewall and Ronnie Hawkins.
Inside you will find an entrance hall with a closet where you can put away your shoes and hang your coat. To the right is a bathroom and a hallway that leads to the kitchen (which has a door that leads out to the backyard). To the left is a hall that leads to the master and guest bedrooms. If you walk straight forward, you will find yourself in the living room.
Scene Two:
Jory and Ronnie are preparing for the wedding they're about to have.

Ronnie walked up the steps to the house with bags of food and party things in her arms. She pushed open the door and made her way to the kitchen. "I'm home!" she called out to Jory...wherever he was...hopefully cleaning for the party?
She'd check on him later. For now, she had to get all this food set out. Glancing at the clock, she saw they had a bit of time before the guests came. The red head breathed a sigh of relief and took out the cake, chips, soda, and sandwich things. She then began preparing sandwiches, setting them on a large plate as she finished them. Once she had set all the food out and made it look nice, she took a step back and nodded. It looked perfect! She leaned against the counter, smiling to herself. Her and Jory had her own place now, and all their Hogwarts and work friends were coming to celebrate. She couldn't be happier! And speaking of Jory, where was he anyway?
"Jory?" she called out, beginning to search for him.
~ Mrs. Steve Harrington ~ It be like that sometimes.
Jory had missed Ronnie's shout for him the first time around. Why? Because he had been sleeping. This week had been more tiring for him due to training and patrolling in Diagon Alley. He hadn't even known how long he had been asleep for but he suddenly jerked awake when he heard his girlfriend's voice calling.
"In here, Ronnie,'' he called as he sat up from the couch. He grabbed the TV's remote and switched off the TV. "You're back already? Or was I asleep for a long time?" He shook his head as if attempting to shake the sleep from his eyes. "You need any help?"
Belle was excited to be at her friends party. She hardly seen her friends Ronnie and Jory in a LONG time. I think it was because our separate lives got in the way plus she was busy studying in University but now she was done. She was looking for jobs now because she would love to teach potions. She looked down and admired her outfit. She loved her dress she got and patented it down. We got to have no wrinkles. She took a deep breath and walked up the stairs and knocked on the door.
She thought the outside of their house was adorable plus the curb appeal was top notch. She wished she could afford a place like this but probably in due time. She waited to see who would answer the door Jory or Ronnie. They had a lot of catching up to do.

Hearing Jory reply, Ronnie followed his voice and found him on the couch, looking a little sleepy. She smiled. He was kinda adorable when he was sleepy. "I think you were asleep a bit long, but that's alright," she said as she made her way over and pushed his hair back to kiss his forehead. She really didn't mind at all that he had slept. Sure, she had wondered if he was cleaning but he didn't have to. She could take care of that. Besides, she knew how tired he was lately because of work. "Well, just get yourself ready. I'll finish tidying up, the guests should be here soon." she gave him a nod before leaving the room to finish cleaning the house.

She thought the outside of their house was adorable plus the curb appeal was top notch. She wished she could afford a place like this but probably in due time. She waited to see who would answer the door Jory or Ronnie. They had a lot of catching up to do.
Just as Ronnie finished sweeping by the front door, there came a knock from it. "Just in time," she thought to herself as she opened it to find Belle. She beamed at the sight of her friend. "Hey, Belle! Good to see you! Come on in," she opened the door a little wider for her. "Cute dress, by the way!" she added with a nod.

As Belle knocked on the door she heard some footsteps approaching her. She did look presentable though so she didn't need to worry. As the door opened she noticed Ronnie opened it. Belle beamed and immediately went to hug her friend. "Heyy Ronnie." she said hugging her tight. "It has been way too long." When she heard her comment about her dress she looked down to look at it and smiled. "Why thank you, I bought it at Forever 21. Did you know this dress was 5 bucks?" She couldn't believe she got a great sale on it.
She assumed the door opened meant she could step in. She began to walk up the stairs and into their living room. "Wowww what a cute place.." she commented looking around.

Jory was much wider awake now. Looking at Ronnie, he could see she wasn't upset with him and the kiss told him as much. Good thing she was such an understanding girlfriend. "Alright,'' he said with a nod. "But yell if you need help with anything." He didn't want to be totally useless and using his work as an excuse for not doing anything. Jory took one of Ronnie's hands and pressed his lips to it before she left. He stood up, rearranged the pillows on the couch then headed off to get ready.
SPOILER!!: Belle! <3

Jory exited his room just as he heard a knock on the door. Guests were beginning to arrive. His timing for getting ready had been perfect. He made his way towards the front door but Ronnie had already gotten there. Jory smiled when he saw who had arrived. Belle! He hadn't seen her in ages! He stood patiently while the two girls said their hellos. Still smiling, he shook his head. Girly comments had to be exchanged too.
I Can Accept Failure. But I Can't Accept Not Trying
Hopefully he had the right address. He had got an invitation to a party of some sort, although he wasn't too strung up on parties, it was better than going around at Diagon Alley all day. Once he arrived to the house he noticed the house was very nice. He could tell that a family lived here. On the way up to knock on the door he realized that when he got older he would definitely like a house this nice, especially a place all to himself.
He walked up the driveway and strutted through to the door. His hands were sweaty and he could feel his body shake a little bit. This was a sign that Jordan was nervous. He would always be nervous going to a party by himself. Even if it was for one of his buddies, but he didn't know if he would recognize anyone else. Upon reaching the door, he knocked on the door a few times and waited for someone to open it. He thought to himself, Hope this isn't too awkward.

Smiling, Ronnie hugged Belle back. It felt as if ages had passed since she had last seen her...time really had flown by, hadn't it? "It has been way too long! How are you?" she asked as she shut the door behind her, raising her eyebrows when she mentioned the dress being $5. "Merlin's beard, really? That's awesome!" she said. Perhaps she'd have to stop by this Forever 21 place now....
The red head beamed, glad that Belle liked it. "Thanks!" she said.

Ronnie smiled as Jory arrived just in time. And he looked great! Before she could carry on talking to Belle, there was a knock at the door. Someone else was here! She turned to Jory and Belle. "I'll get that, you wanna show Belle around?" she asked with a smile.

"Sure,'' Jory said, smiling broadly. He was more than happy to show Belle his and Ronnie's new house. "Come on, Belle. I'll be your tour guide for today,'' he said, his mind flashing back to the Hogwarts days when Belle was also a student there. They hadn't hung out much but he did know her. "First stop is going to be the living room.''
Jory took a second to greet the new arrival though. "Hi, there,'' he said to the nervous looking guy. Jordan, Ronnie said? He wasn't familiar with him though he did look familiar.
"Ready, Belle? What' you been up to since you left Hogwarts?"

Minerva was excited, her two friends moving in together. This was nice and they were having a little get together. She always jumped at a chance to get together with friends and it was great that they had invited the kids, because no babysitter issues. Though she knew her in laws would always take them and so would her own grandparents. So She wasn't horribly worried, but it was still nice to just come as a family. Tucking a little housewarming gift under her arm she carried Chloe in the other.
Coming up to the door she turned to Ethan and Gunnar. Looking at Gunnar, "Now I don't know what will be in there, but let's try not to break anything, okay? I brought some toys for you to play with." She leaned kissing her sons head knowing he was never bad, but he was a two year old, you just never knew what would happen. Turning she knocked on the door.
They were going somewhere and Chloe was in a dress. She looked at it in her mommy's arms and pulled at it. She wasn't sure she liked being all dressed up and there was something in her hair that was bugging her. Tugging towards the barrette she tried to get it off. Her green eyes kept looking around and she tilted her head listening as mommy talked to Gunnar. "oys" She clapped her hands, were they getting toys at this new place. That would be fun!
Turning she grabbed her mommy's hair and giggled. Could they play hair combing, that could be fun. She started tangling her hands in it when she heard her mommy knock. She wanted to knock too and leaned as far as her mommy's hands would let her. Knocking on the door.
Belle smiled and twirled her dress around. "Yes really.." and then she noticed Jory next to Ronnie's side. "Hi Jory long time no see." she greeted her old friend. Man she didn't realize it has been AGES since they have all seen each other. She really missed her friends. Oooh now she was going to be given the tour. This can be exciting. She waited for Jory to show her around since Ronnie looked busy.
Belle smiled at Jory and said, "I am excited to see your new home. I mean Ronnie has sent me pictures but it is nice to see it in person.." she said looking around and now they were going to the living room. It looked nice just for a couple starting out. "Are you guys thinking of having children someday soon?" she asked curiously. Then she heard Jory's question and smiled. "I haven't been up to too much. I mean I went to University and graduated with a teaching in potions. So that hasn't gotten me anywhere too much. Now I am trying to look for jobs in the Ministry to hold me over." she told her friend honestly.
Belle looked over and noticed another person came into the home and she didn't know him. She would introduce herself later and she heard another knock at the door. She wondered how many people did Ronnie invite. The more the merrier right?

Jordan could hear the people inside conversing with each other then the door slowly creaked open, there stood his good friend Ronnie. He hadn't seen her in quite some time. "Well hello there mate." Jordan said in his best pirate accent, he thought that would be funny although he had no idea why he said it in such a weird accent. "Glad to be here, Ronnie. How are you doing?"
Holding Gunnar's little hand in his own, Ethan followed Minerva and Chloe up to Jory and Ronnie's new house. It had been a while since he had seen them, since graduation to be exact, and he thought their housewarming party would be a good way to spend part of the day. He smiled at Min as she spoke to Gunnar, knowing that he might try to get into things, and wondered if they had done any child-proofing here. "Think there'll be any other kids here?" He was fairly certain that Jory and Ronnie didn't have any but he didn't know all who they invited either. He stood by as Min knocked and waited to be invited inside.
Gunnar held onto Daddy's hand tightly as they all walked to the house. Where was this place? He didn't know it and he didn't really like new places. But Mommy and Daddy and Chloe would be there so he would be ok if he stayed close to them. He looked up at Mommy as she spoke to him. Oh, she had toys? Where? "Want toys." Blue eyes watched her then looked up at Chloe. Why was Mommy holding her, was she getting the toys? Pulling at Daddy's arm, he reached for Mommy grabbing at her leg.

Ronnie suddenly heard yet another knock, followed by some tiny, light knocks. Smiling, she opened it to find Minerva, Ethan, and their kids. The red head's face lit up at the sight of them. Weren't they just precious?! She had indeed seen pictures of them when she had met Minnie and Leaky Cauldron but in person it was just so exciting and they were simply adorable...
"Hey Minnie! Ethan!" she greeted them with a nod. "And you two must be Gunnar and Chloe, correct?" she asked, smiling at them both.

Ronnie laughed at his accent. "Aye matey, good to see yee." she said in her best pirate voice she could muster. Eh, it wasn't great but hey, she tried.
"I'm good! How are you?" she asked as she shut the door behind him.

Jordan laughed at her attempt of the pirate accent that Jordan attempted to imitate. "I'm alright. Living the dream." Jordan said sarcastically. Although there was some truth to that seeing that it was the middle of summer and he could relax all he wanted.

Just before Jory left with Belle, he turned to address Ronnie. “Might want to put on some of your music,’’ he suggested. Ronnie had a great taste in music and a little in the background would be nice. No awkward silence and all. Jory was one big awkward all by himself.
“Right back at you, Belle.” Jory hadn’t realised how out of contact he had been with everyone after he left Hogwarts. But this would be a great time to catch up with everyone. Ronnie had come up with a great idea of having their friend over. “You and Ronnie still that close, huh?” He knew his girlfriend kept in contact with some of their old friends. A lot more than what he could say for himself.
Belle’s question had the YATI member shaking his head. “No, I mean yes.’’ Way to go, Jory. Can’t you even answer a simple question? “I haven’t even proposed to her as yet,’’ he added. He had decided to… soon but he hadn’t told anyone that as yet but he figured he could tell Belle. “I plan to do it really soon.’’ Jory was sorry to hear about Belle’s luck with jobs. “I could always help you with that. I’ll let you know about any,’’ he promised.
More knocks at the door. Jory was unclear of how many persons Ronnie had invited but he didn’t care. He was really looking forward to seeing as many of his friends again. He turned his attention back to the entrance.
“Min!” Besides Alyssa and Gwen, Minerva was the friend he had missed the most. He wondered if it would be too much if he gave her a bear hug so he just stood there smiling like an idiot. And Ethan was there, too! Along with two munchkins. Min and Ethan had already had kids? Talk about Jory being out of context when it came to life. “Hey, Ethan. How are you guys?” He stopped so that he was at eye level with the little girl and boy. “Hello. What are your names?”

Simon had to admit that he had been at least mildly surprised to have been invited to the housewarming get-together that Jory had invited him to. Granted the YATI was one of the few in the division and maybe even the department that he was closest to. Other that Josh of course. But he was also several years older than the younger man. And likely anyone else that might have been invited to the party. And after the whole situation at the music festival where he and Angelina had joked about being out of touch with the recent music interests, he wondered briefly if he wouldn't be quite out of place.
Yet he had told the younger man that he might come if nothing else came up and when nothing did in the end, he had apparated to a discrete point nearby the given address. Might as well go and see what was up, always able to leave if things became awkward. Surely Jory would understand and he didn't want to have everyone be uncomfortable because of him. Besides a quick stop was better than not showing up at all...right?
When he had reached to house it corresponded to, Simon walked up the path and onto the steps at the door. His hand reaching up and knocking on the flat surface. Now to wait.

Waiting on someone to answer the door she turned to her husband as he questioned the kids. "I don't know really. My guess is no, but I know Ronnie wanted to meet them and I just know they will be on their best behavior. Won't you." She grinned toward her children. They were usually very good out in public. Chloe was her little dare devil she had come to realize where Gunnar watched and was more cautious. So different they were already. Laughing as Gunnar asked about the toys. "Don't worry mommy has them and you will get them in a bit."
She turned just to see Ronnie and Jory at the door. "Hi guys." She gave them both a one armed hug since she was still holding Chloe with the other. "Yes, this one is Gunnar and this is Chloe. Can you say hi to mommy and daddy's friends." She looked to her children to respond before turning back to them. "This is such a cute house. I'm so glad you invited us over." Her lunch date with Ronnie was so nice catching up and now they were getting to hang out again and seeing Jory was great too. "Have have you been?" Time to get the scoop on how life was going.
Chloe watched as mommy and daddy talked. Only following a bit of the conversation. "Oys" She knew toys, she wanted toys. Where were they? Leaning over looking around, maybe they were in this bag on mommy's shoulder. Could she reach that far? She could always try. Though before she could people were talking. People she didn't know, but mommy was giving them hugs so they had to be alright and Chloe gave hugs too letting go when mommy let go and giggling. This was fun, could she get down and explore now? She threw her body towards the ground, though mommy's arm was tight around her so she didn't go anywhere. Why wasn't she down yet? She wanted to play.

Ronnie smiled at Jory's suggestion of turning on music and she gave him a thumbs up. She then was about to head to the living room when she heard another knock at the door. The red head turned and opened it to find a man (Simon) that she didn't recognize. Must be one of Jory's co-workers, yeah? She smiled warmly at him and extended her hand for him to shake. "Hello! I'm Ronnie, Jory's girlfriend. Come on in, make yourself at home!" she said.
She turned back to Minerva and beamed. "They are so cute!" she said, hugging her friend back and laughing as Chloe gave her a hug as well. "I've been pretty good, lots better after unpacking everything at last," Ronnie said with a laugh as she closed the door behind them. "How have you been?" she asked as she lead them to the living room where she put on an old Beatles record she had recently bought at a Muggle record shop. Even though they were old, she adored record players and loved listening to really old Muggle bands. Something about them made her happy.
Ethan turned towards Minerva as they waited for the door to be answered, listening as she spoke. He would figure the same, that there wouldn't be any other kids there, but then he didn't know who all were invited. They had kids kind of early, but some of their friends were also starting to have kids as well, so he figured it was a fair chance either way. "Of course they will.." He grinned down at Gunnar who was trying to pull away but he kept his hand grasped around his son's. They had good kids, even if they were typical toddlers.
He turned just as Minerva did and smiled as their hosts opened the door. "Hi Jory.. Ronnie.. We're all doing well, thanks for asking." And good to know they were doing the same. He glanced down at Gunnar as he felt him go behind his leg. "He's a little shy," he said, picking him up as he followed them inside. But he'd warm up to them soon enough as he usually did. Ethan glanced at the other guests, giving them a polite smile or nod as he didn't know any of them. Though there was Belle. "Hey, Belle!" he grinned. It had been a little while since he had seen her.
"Mommy, toys." Gunnar looked up at her as she said she had them, then pulled at Daddy's arm again as he looked for her purse. Is that where the toys were? And then his blue eyes snapped up to the door as it opened and he quickly hid behind Daddy's leg, toys forgotten. He didn't know these people. He wanted Daddy and he happily went into his arms as Daddy picked Gunnar up. Clinging tightly to his shirt, Gunnar snuggled into Daddy's chest as they walked inside and he talked to the strange people, the 2 1/2 year old watching everything from the safety of his father's arms.

Ronnie smiled as Gunnar hid behind Ethan's leg. D'awww. He was simply adorable.
Seeing the boy being awfully shy around everyone, she looked up at Ethan and chuckled. "There's plenty of space here in the living room for them to play," she said, gesturing to the open floor. She then leaned in and whispered, "And if it's okay with you guys, I made cookies in case they want some." Because what kid doesn't love cookies?!

Looking around as they entered the house, Minerva smiled, "Of course you've been busy. Moving into a house and working, that is crazy." She was lucky to not have those issues. The cottage was Ethan's before she graduated and not really having too much of her own stuff she could just start fresh with him. Though her grandparents did help move a few things that were hers or her parents into the cottage. "I've been great. The kids keep me pretty busy and I teach dance once a week." She loved doing that so much. It was just so fun.
She listened to Ethan talk to Ronnie and Jory turning her head hearing him say Belle's name. "Belle!" She grinned at her and set a wiggling Chloe down laughing as she started bouncing to the music. "Are you dancing?" She smiled toward Gunnar as he asked about toys, "Here you go buddy." She handed him a toy dragon. Seeing Ronnie lean into Ethan to say something she just kept watching the kids and laughing as Chloe's dance moves got more hilarious.
They were going into this house. Oooh this could be fun. Her little green eyes watched all the people and looked around. Hearing music starting her little head started to bob and she wanted down so she through her body towards the floor whimpering until mommy finally put her down. YAY! She was on her feet looking around, but the music was too good and she was bending and straightening her knees trying to keep up with the beat. Laughing she started clapping her hands along with moving her legs.
Still holding Gunnar as his son clung tightly to him, Ethan looked around the room as Ronnie gestured to the wide space. They did have a nice house, but he also knew how shy Gunnar could be, especially around new people. "Yeah, once he warms up a little, that'll be great," he said with a smile. Hearing her whispered words, he chuckled. "Sure, they can have one.. Gunnar might just be your new best friend, after all." He ruffled the little boy's hair as he still kept him in his arms. He'd set him down when the time was right.
As Min talked to a few of the guests, Ethan's green eyes found Chloe as she started to dance to the music and he gave her a wide grin. "Do you like this music?" He peered at Gunnar as the two and a half year old craned his neck to watch his sister. "Do you want to get down and dance too?"
From the safety of his Daddy's arms, Gunnar watched everything going on around them. There were a lot of strange people here and he wasn't sure what to think of them all. He needed time to get to know people first. But Daddy and Mommy seemed to know these people and they seemed to be having a good time because they were smiling and laughing, he noted as he watched them.
And then he could hear Chloe laughing too. He turned his head and leaned more in her direction so she could see what she was doing. Dancing... that looked fun, but he wasn't ready to get down yet. Instead, he just watched.

Ronnie laughed, nodding. "Yeah, true. I'm just glad it's all out of the way now." She said with a sigh. The red head then beamed. That was so cool that Minnie taught dance! Ronnie was never that great of a dancer herself... "That's so exciting!" She exclaimed. "How do you like it? Teaching?" She added in curiosity. She'd always had a second thought for her career of being a Hogwarts professor or something.
Noticing Chloe begin moving to the music, she let out a laugh. "Aww!" She squealed quietly, putting her hands to her mouth. Wasn't she precious?! Ronnie couldn't wait to have her own kids someday. Watching as Minnie set her down, she laughed again as she continued to move her legs and clapped. How adorable! "She is too cute!" She said to Minnie.

"Perfect." Ronnie said, clasping her hands together. "We'll just give them their time, then." She smiled at Ethan, chuckling at his reply about the cookies. Awesome. She knew cookies could make anyone best friends... she had experience! And good baking skills of course.
