Please, please read this, I hope this will make reading the whole story a bit easier!

Spoilers: This story contains spoilers from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows and previous books from the Harry Potter-series - so no spoilers from Harry Potter and the Cursed Child as I've written this story before the play came out. It is possible that the characters I wrote aren't close to what J.K. Rowling thinks they are like (as you can read/see in Harry Potter and the Cursed Child). Please don't be angry about that, I didn't know at the start what J.K. Rowling thoughts were on most of these characters so I just used my own imagination.

Timeline: I think it's easier for all of us if I explain the timeline first (as in: how old is everyone). Together with the data J.K. Rowling gave us, I have been able to give every Next-Generation child a date of birth. Some characters may be a lot older than you expect (for example, Louis is often portrayed in fan fictions as a much younger boy). I'm not saying that what other people wrote is wrong, I only say that I thought this was more logical. I also began writing this story in 2014. My English was somewhat okayish, so I'm starting to edit the whole story (my English now still isn't amazing, but it is better than before). I've not yet updated every chapter (you can see which chapter has been updated and which isn't, very easily), but I have to change things, as I only tried this timeline-thing today (two years later...). SO this means: not everything is in their place yet. If you think: I can read past this, just read as much as you want to, this is the story as it will go, just imagine it going a bit more fluently and better - If you can't read past this, please stop reading if there isn't this "updated: ...." at the beginning of the chapter. If you want me to, I can send you a PM when I've updated the next chapter (PM me about that :) )

In this story, Rose, Albus and Scorpius are in their seventh and thus last year of Hogwarts. As the Harry Potter Wiki tells us (really, that Wiki is my best friend) - and I quote: "A seventh year is a student at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry who is in their seventh and final year of formal magical education. Seventh years are usually seventeen to eighteen years of age." So it depends on their date of birth whether they are seventeen or eighteen. This list of people is ranked by family at first and then age (we start this story at August 31st 2023):

Teddy Lupin, April 14 (1998) - 25 years old

Victoire Weasley, May 2 (2000) - 23 years old

• Dominique Weasley, November 24 (2001) - 21 years old

Louis Weasley, March 17 (2004) - 19 years old

Molly Weasley, September 1 (2001) - 20 years old

Lucy Weasley, February 14 (2004) - 19 years old

Fred Weasley II, April 2 (2002) - 21 years old

Roxanne Weasley, June 19 (2004) - 19 years old

James Potter II, July 15 (2004) - 19 years old

Albus Potter, July 13 (2006) - 17 years old so, still at Hogwarts

Lily Potter, January 31 (2008) - 15 years old also still at Hogwarts

Rose Granger-Weasley, August 1 (2006) - 17 years old she's also at Hogwarts

Hugo Granger-Weasley, December 5 (2007) - 15 years old Hugo also still attends Hogwarts

Scorpius Malfoy, April 10 (2006) - 17 years old this badboy really needs to attend Hogwarts

Lorcan Scamander, December 11 (2009) - 13 years old yup, still there

Lysander Scamander, December 11 (2009) - 13 years old always joining his twin

OMG! I just realised, I'm updating the second chapter now (not sure if it that's still accurate when you read this, so do go on) and I realise I can change the WHOLE story right now (and another fan fiction I wrote, but not gonna do that because it will be a lot of work). Lorcan and Lysander are a bit younger than the rest of the gang as J.K. Rowling said Luna had children "considerably later". So, now I need to invent a twin who has the same age as Rose, Albus and Scorpius, as they are Lily's and Lucy's love interest (and those two have a four year age gap).

And it goes on...: I'm updating / party changing this story. Most of the plot will stay the same, I just want to add some stuff and to show you guys my English really did improve in the time I lived in England (and because some situations in this story are really a pain in the ass to read). I still really like this story and I discovered you guys do too (thank you soooo sooo much for that, I finished this story maybe a year and a half ago and I still get reviews, love you guys!) so I guess you deserve an improvement. Don't expect too much from me. Those who follow my stories and thereby know me, I can be a bit late (a bit?!) with updates. It's okay if you read this and you don't want to wait for me to update the other chapters and you read the other unupdated chapters, but keep in mind that the grammar and the story itself isn't the best story you've ever red. I'm always open for suggestions and please please please help me to improve my English and this story, because I love how enthusiastic you guys can be about my stories. It really warms my heart and I just want to give you the best I can do (with your help when needed!!). Much love - xoxo WICELA

2021 update: So I haven't logged into Wattpad since what feels like forever. I can't thank you guys enough for all the support that I still receive! Every week I get spammed with emails that you guys are still reading, voting and commenting on a story that I started writing in 2014. It's crazy and I feel very overwhelmed and loved by all this! Now I started updating this story in 2017 I think, because the storyline was - in my eyes - very chaotic and my English even worse hahaha! I don't think I'll ever finish updating this story (even though I do think about it). It's been a wild ride since then and you guys make me very happy by still contributing your love and thoughts <3
