The sun rose steadily over Hogwarts, and the Great Hall blazed with life and light. Harry was an indispensable part of the mingledout pourings of jubilation and mourning, of grief and celebration. They wanted him there with them, their leader and symbol, their savior and their guide, and that he had not slept, that he craved
the company of only a few of them, seemed to occur to no one as I sent him a small smile from beside Charlie. The news came steadily that Death Eaters were fleeing or else being captured, that the innocent of Azkaban werebeing released at that very moment, and that Kingsley Shacklebolt had been named temporary Minister of Magic. Voldemort’s body had been moved and laid in a chamber off the
Hall, away from the bodies of Fred, Tonks, Moony, Colin Creevey, and fifty others who had died fighting him. McGonagall had replaced the House tables, but nobody was sitting according to House anymore: All were jumbled together, teachers and pupils, ghosts and parents, centaurs and house-elves, and Firenze lay recovering
in a corner, and Grawp peered in through a smashed window, and people were throwing food into his laughing mouth. After a while, lookiny exhausted and drained, I spotted Harry sitting on a bench beside Luna. Ginny was sitting with her head on her mother’s shoulder, Neville, the
sword of Gryffindor lying beside his plate as he ate, was surrounded by a knot of fervent admirers. The three Malfoys, huddled together as though unsure whether or not they were supposed to be there, but
nobody was paying them any attention. Everywhere I looked families were being reunited. I rested my head on Charlie's shoulder as he wrapped an arm around me.

"I love you" I say as I look up at him.

"I love you too Nova" He kisses me quickly before pulling away and resting his head on top of mine whilst I rest mine back on his shoulder. I look over at George who was sat with Lee, he sent me a small smile.

"I'm going to go over to George, is that okay" I say to Charlie.

"Go I'll be with mum or someone" I kiss his cheek quickly before walking over to George. Lee looks up and smiles before getting up and going over to some of the others. I sit down as George places his head on my shoulder.

"Hey Georgie" I whisper.

"Hey Rory" we sit in silence after this neither or us saying a word, just sitting there supporting eachother.
