Christmas Eve was amazing with the Weasley's, of course there was someone missing; Fred. Ari and Freddie sat at the table with George and I, talking about Hogwarts and how much they love it. It was amazing that I was in their position a more than 27years ago.
"Mum, how did you know Scorpius' dad?" Ari asked curiously, Albus' head turned and so did Hermione's. It was quite an awkward thing to tell an eleven year old.
"Draco and I were dating a long, long time ago. But we separated our ways and I found your dad who's the love of my life" I smiled, looking at George. He smiled back and Ariana stayed quiet. Obviously it wasn't the time to tell her the actual story, maybe she wouldn't be interested in years to come.
"We're home!" Shouted a familiar voice, of course it was Bill.
"Uncle Bill! Auntie Fleur!" Ari and Rose shouted, running up to them. Victoire, Louis and Dominique run in too. The burrow was absolutely full but Molly and Arthur loved the company of having a big family, she had managed to knit the kids sweaters with their first initial on there. It was a beautiful feeling.

"Hey auntie (Y/N), guess where I'm going next year" said Louis, who had a toy dog in his hand.
"Where are you going Lou?" I asked, with a smile.

"Hogwarts" he whispered.
"No way" I joked, whilst the ten year old nodded.
"Can I know?" Asked George, curiously.
"No you're not cool enough Georgie" I winked, obviously messing about with him. Louis ran off to play with the others and George had a pout on his face.

"Aw is little Georgie sad" I taunted, looking at his adorable face. He nodded. I gave him a kiss, which turned his frown into a cheesy grin.
A few hours later, we had exchanged our gifts. There was millions and a lot more to give out tomorrow, my family was always small so it was good to be apart of a great big family, especially the Weasley's.

Ariana had fallen asleep on me and Freddie was talking with James and Albus. The party had died down, then soon everyone started leaving. Tomorrow was going to be even crazier as Charlie was coming home from Romania, Percy was coming to visit too.
"Do you want to get going?" George asked, looking at Fred who was nearly falling asleep on himself. I nodded and we got up to leave.

"Merry Christmas everyone, we'll see you tomorrow have a good night" I said, we said our goodbyes and transported to our home.
It was about 12am, we were getting the kids into bed. They were exhausted from running about all evening, Harry being the sweetheart he was told Fred about his crazy adventures with the trio and occasionally with me.
The kids were now sleeping and George and I were sat downstairs drinking some butter beer.
"Do you think Fred was with us all tonight?" Asked George who was staring at the very tall Christmas tree that little Freddie and Ari helped him put up.

"No doubt about it, he will always be with us George. You know that, he's still in our hearts babe" I consoled him, George had a tear in his eye. I reached in and gave him a kiss, comforting him.

"I'm so lucky to have you" Fred whispered, sending a chill down my spine.
"No, I am. You made my life complete" I replied, reminding me of the experience with Draco.

"Are you sure you love me?" Asked George, who had obviously had more than too many Fire Whiskey.
"George how could you ask such a question? I have two beautiful children, a loving family and husband. What more could I want?" I asked, feeling a little hurt he'd said that.

"I'm sorry (Y/N). I don't know why I said it, I know you love me. I love you too" George replied, cupping my face and pulling me in for a kiss which then turned into a full make out session.
George tugged onto my jeans, I obviously knew what he wanted and I certainly wasn't going to do it with him drunk.
"No George, you're drunk and the kids are sleeping" I scolded which made him groan and pout.
"Come on, off to bed" I ordered, we fell asleep in each others arms.

George and I were woken up by Ari and Fred, bouncing on the bed.
"Wake up, wake up! Santa has came!" Squealed Ariana. We got out of bed and followed the kids downstairs to open their many presents.

The kids had opened lots of presents of George and I, Fred had the best new Quidditch equipment and other things whilst Ariana had a few cuddly toys and other girly stuff.
I went to make tea. I heard Ron and Hermione had gotten Freddie Chudley Cannons shirts and stuff. It was adorable to see the kids having presents.

When it came around to Fred and I giving each other our gifts, he had gone first. I opened a tightly wrapped gift which had a beautiful diamond ring inside it.
"Oh Georgie I love it! Thank you so much" I giggled, bringing him in for a hug.
"You're worth it, love" he replied as I kissed his cheek.

George opened his present, I had gotten him a photo album of all our memories. Even the ones before we dated, back before Fred died. A moving picture of me, George and Fred after a Quidditch match.
George got very emotional, Ari and Freddie gathered around to look at the photos of us as teenagers at Hogwarts. It was special.
Later on that day we had gone over to Harry and Ginny's who had a beautiful table full of food and different decorations, I had gone to help Ginny and Hermione with the food. Where we had a little by of girl talk.

"Having a good Christmas girls?" Ginny asked, whilst checking on the turkey.

"It's been magical" I smiled, preparing some of the veg.
"(Y/N), have you heard about Draco?" Asked Ginny who's tone of voice sounded a little concerned.

"No, what happened?" I asked, very confused.
"Astoria passed away, leaving Draco to bring up his son" Ginny explained, making me cover my mouth in shock.

"That's awful" I reply, shocked from what Ginevra just told me.
"I know, awful. Didn't you see him when we were picking up the kids?" Asked Ginny.
"Yes, we spoke for a brief moment. It was a shock, it's been a long time hasn't it" I replied, thinking about the encounter.

"He probably wished he had what you got now" Hermione joined in, making me chuckle a little bit.

>>>>AFTER CHRISTMAS<<<<<

Christmas was over, finally. The kids were back at school and the rush was over. All the family was stress free with most of the kids going back to school.

One afternoon, George was in work at the sweet shop and it happened to be on my day off. I hadn't received any owls so I figured I'd go to Diagon Alley to get a few things.

I strolled down the street, a few familiar faces had appeared. It made me flash back to when I was going to get all my stuff for my first year at Hogwarts.
I had promised that if Ari has excelled in potions then I'd buy her an animal, so I decided to take a look in the shop.
A good five minutes went by before I felt a tap on my shoulder, I spun around to see Draco Malfoy stood in front of me. He didn't look happy, he looked drained sort of.
"Fancy seeing you here (Y/N), looking for a new pet?" Smiled Draco.

"Draco! Hi yes, for Ariana. I promised her I'd get her something so I decided to have a look" I explained.

"Fancy going for a drink? If you're not busy?" Draco asked, with the same sparkle in his eye. I nodded and we went to the Three Broomsticks.

"I'm sorry, I heard the news about Astoria. If you ever need anything don't hesitate to owl me" I smiled, trying to comfort him.

"Yes, I wanted to give you an apology" Draco stated, his voice shaking.
"No, don't be silly. It happened a long time ago" I replied, a pain hit my chest.

"No, I just realised how much I lost when it was too late, I was so afraid of my parents opinion. They hated Astoria, they actually told me that I should have stayed with you.." Draco said, in a sad tone.

"I forgive you, it's okay Draco. I've put it passed me and now we can move on yes?" I proposed.
"That sounds good, Ariana reminds me of you when you were younger" Draco chuckled.

"Scorpius is the image of you Draco, it's crazy" I replied, Draco nodded giggling. Maybe after all this time... We could be friends again?
