AN: Okay this is the last chapter before I start the sequel.


An Unwanted Marriage, But An Unexpected Love


The next morning Barty and Hermione were dressed and packed. They would be heading for the apparation point after breakfast. They were going to spend a week in the wizarding area of Venice. Sirius and Sara-Jane on the other hand, they had decided to spend a week in the wizarding area of Rome. They had ten days before they were due to start their seventh and final year at Hogwarts. The two couples would return from their own separate honeymoons two days before the start of the new school term.

Hermione and Barty headed to Sara-Jane’s and Sirius’s new set of rooms, and Hermione knocked on the door. She called out through the door, “Are you two awake, decent and ready to head down to the great hall for breakfast? We’ve got to leave for our different apparation points in less then an hour and a half.”

Less then a minute later Sara-Jane opened the door and exited followed by Sirius. Both looked tiered but evidently content. Sirius and Sara-Jane noticed Barty and Hermione had the same air of contentment and tiredness around them also.

Sara-Jane took hold of Hermione left hand, before pulling her towards the door she could be heard saying, “You and I are going to have a chat. I want details.” They heard Hermione splutter “Details? What do you mean details? you better not mean what I think you mean, as I’m not spilling.” They heard Sara-Jane let out a laugh and reply, “Of course not, I’m not after that much detail. Like hell, I’m not willing to reveal such great detail either, although I do wanna know if he’s any good.”

The door closed behind them, just as they heard Hermione start to splutter in protest. They exchanged an amused glance. Sirius gestured to the door and quipped, “Ok, shall we go and save your wife from mine then?” Barty chuckled and shook his head, as he followed Sirius out of the common room.

When everyone had reached the great hall for breakfast in order to see the two newly wed couples off on their honeymoons, everyone noticed how Sara-Jane was in hysterics while Hermione was glowering, looking ready to place her hands around her bare throat and squeeze really hard.

Harry asked, “What’s wrong with Hermione?” Ginny added, “Yeah, and why does she look ready to strangle Sara-Jane?” Barty chuckled as he replied, “Sara-Jane took great pleasure in teasing Hermione and asking how I was in bed.” Harry and rolled his eyes whilst Ginny giggled behind her hand, as she commented “Oh honestly Sara-Jane. You know how Hermione gets when you tease her over such things.

Sara-Jane replied from between giggles “What? You know how hilarious and entertaining it is to watch her splutter indignantly and to see how many different shades of red, puce, maroon and crimson she can go all in one go. I can’t help myself.”

Hermione grumbled as she asked Sirius, “I don’t suppose you’d be willing to somehow miraculously lose her whilst you’re on your honeymoon, Sirius?” Sirius chuckled at this and replied “Oh honestly Hermione. You know you love it deep down.” Hermione scoffed and replied, “Yeah, extremely deep, deep down thank you very much.” Everyone else sniggered at this, while Sara-Jane smirked teasingly at her flushed friend.

After breakfast, everyone travelled with the two newly wed couples. They saw Sara-Jane and Sirius off at their appartion point first, before leaving with Hermione and Barty to see them off at their own apparation point.
Ginny snuggled into Harry’s side as she said, “I envy them I really do. Whilst their off on their honeymoons enjoying all there is to be offered, we’re all stuck here having to prepare for the up and coming school year.”

Harry chuckled warmly and gently kissed her on the top of her head and told her, “True. But just think this will be you and me this time next year.” He added, “And of course while we’ve got ten days left before the school year begins and to pack, they’ll only have two.”

Remus entered the conversation then and added, “And in addition, we will be all packed and be able to relax, whereas they will be rushing around to gather everything. So actually we’re all in the better position here, Ginny.”

Just as they all turned to head back to the castle to gather their belongings and head to their respective homes, Harry finally added, “Cheer up Gin, I swear I’ll let you choose where we go on our own honeymoon.”
Ginny beamed up at him and leaned up to kiss him gently on the nose and replied, “Okay. I’ll take you up on that.” The others chuckled and apparated away.

Okay this is the end of this story, and now on to the sequel. I still need to figure out what I am going to call it. Keep a look out as I already have the first three or four chapters written and they just need editing.
