----Ten Years Later----

It was the birthday of Hailey, Heather, Harry and Neville, they were turning 23.
When they were 18 they each married their boyfriends - first Hailey Potter-Lupin (That's the short version she has so many surnames it is hard to keep track) then Heather Black then Harry Black and finally Neville Longbottom-Snape. Once he turned 18, Lucas married Astoria Greengrass-Potter. Melody had come out as Asexual and Aeromantic.
Hailey and Remus had been at it like rabbits and had seven biological children, three adopted children and two more on the way. Heather and Sirius had twin boys and another on the way. Neville and Severus had adopted two young children just as Harry and Regulus had adopted their little girl. Lucas and Astoria had twins and had another on the way.
When they had graduated, Hailey and Heather had been invited to join the Unspeakables - they had accepted - Harry was an Auror, Neville was a Healer, Lucas was a Ministry worker (Head of the department of magical games and sports with a shoe in for Minister when Kingsley retires) and Melody was going into her second year.
Hailey placed a hand on her swollen stomach as her husband (she will never get over saying that) climbed onto the stage with James, Lily, Lucas, Severus, Sirius and Regulus. All of the kids scrambled to sit down as Lily reached the mic.
"Hello! This is a song we wrote in honour of the four people who light up our lives and make them better - other than Lucas's wife for him of coarse. Anyway this is called If we have each other."
(When it isn't directly mother-child lover-lover etc James is singing)
(James)
She was 19 with a baby on the way
On the East-side of the city, she was working every day
Cleaning dishes in the evening, she could barely stay awake
She was clinging to the feeling that her luck was gonna change
And, 'cross town she'd take the bus at night to a one bedroom apartment
And when she'd turn on the light
She would sit down at the table
Tell herself that it's alright
She was waiting on the day she hoped the baby would arrive
She'd never be alone
Have someone to hold
And when nights were cold, she'd say
(Lily)
The world's not perfect but it's not that bad
If we got each other and that's all we have
I will be your mother and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you
When the world's not perfect
When the world's not kind
If we have each other then we'll both be fine
I will be your mother and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you
(James)
They were 90 and were living out their days on the west side of the city next to where they got engaged
They had pictures on the walls of all the memories that they'd made
And though life was never easy they were thankful that they stayed
With each other and though sometimes were hard
Even when she made him angry he would never break her heart
No they didn't have the money to afford a fancy car
But they never had to travel 'cause they'd never be apart
Even at the end, their love was stronger than the day that they first met
They'd say
(Husbands - SB,RB,RL,SS)
The world's not perfect but it's not that bad
If we got each other and that's all we have
I will be your lover and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you
When the world's not perfect
When the world's not kind
If we have each other then we'll both be fine
I will be your lover and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you
You should know I'll be there for you
(Lucas)
You're 23 and our folks are getting old
I know they don't have forever and I'm scared to be alone
So I'm thankful for my siblings even though sometimes we fight
When high school wasn't easy, their the reason I survived
I know they'd never leave me
And I hate to see them cry
So I wrote this verse to tell them that I'm always by her side
I wrote this verse to tell them that I'm always by their side
I wrote this verse to tell them that
The world's not perfect but it's not that bad
If we got each other and that's all we have
I will be your brother and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you
When the world's not perfect
When the world's not kind
If we have each other then we'll both be fine
I will be your brother and I'll hold your hand
You should know I'll be there for you
You should know I'll be there for you
The two pregnant women were blubbering at the end of the song causing Remus and Sirius to rush over to them to calm them down. When they had they smiled and reassured the nervous children they were alright.
All in all it was perfect for everyone, just like they had hoped...
