Chapter 103
The group was still at Cortney's parent's home. They were all in the backyard for a barbeque, it was the day before they all leave. Cortney was sitting in a chair with Dana, on the deck. All her friends were all in the pool.
" Sissy," Tristan began as he sat in the chair next to her.
" T-Dog Tristan," Cortney greeted her brother.
" Me and Mikey were thinking," Tristan continued as Mike sat in the chair on the other side of Cortney.
" We want a nephew," Mike blurted out.
" Not till we are married ! " Seamus shouted from across the pool.
" I don't know Seamus, these two thought about it. Which means they really want one," Cortney explained.
" Ya! " Mike said.
" Get Cortney pregnant again," Tristan added. Everyone started laughing, even Dana smiled a little.
" Would you like a sibling Dana ? " Cortney asked. Dana just stared at Cortney, and then Seamus.
" Um, you two are getting married before I have any more grandkids," Cortney's dad butted in. " Keep you legs closed Cortney ! "
" Why does she have to keep her legs closed Daddy ? " Mike asked.
" Ya dad, why do I have to keep them closed ? " Cortney repeated. Her dad went red and went into the house.
" Do you know why ? " Tristan asked Cortney.
" Well this a table turner," Seamus said, making the others laugh.
" Well if I keep them open for too long, then.......Seamus has these magical invisible bugs that come off him," Cortney began to explain. " The bugs fly over and bite the inside of my leg, and boom, I'm pregnant".
" Really !? " Tristan gasped.
" Really," Cortney confirmed.
" Wait, how do they know who to go to ? " Mike asked.
" Magic," Cortney answered.
" Good explanation," Ginny giggled.
" Thanks," Cortney said.
" Cortney, how do hold do you have to be for Camp Durant ? " Mike asked.
" Eleven," Cortney answered.
" Camp Durant? " De'lexi asked.
" Ya, it was this talent camp I went to during most of my summers," Cortney answered. " Its a music, and dance camp". Cortney's mom came outside.
" She was pretty good, " her mom said as she took Dana
" Ya, along with her impression of a witch when she was six," Erin sassed as she came out.
" I'll get you my you my pretty ! And your little dog too ! " Sarah mimicked. She handed Cortney a little smoke bomb. " She made me make these for her".
" See ya," Cortney said standing up. She threw it at the ground, smoke rose and Cortney went inside. When it cleared, everyone was confused where Cortney was at.
" And that's how she got to go another house, after we said we need to go home," Cortney's mom said shaking her head.

It was now winter, they were back in England. It was the day of Bellatrix's funeral. Bellatrix always wanted to have the funeral. Now Bellatrix was already buried, so they used a closed casket. Cortney has not gotten any word from her sister Delphini. Everyone wore black, Cortney was up at the podium giving a speech. In the ground was Seamus in the front row, he had Dana in his arms. She just turned eight months.
" Hello," Cortney greeted into the microphone.
" Hello," everyone greeted.
" I know none of you really want to be here, but it means a lot to means a lot to me that you came out," Cortney began. " My mother Bellatrix was not the greatest person in the world. She lots of terrible things, but it did not stop her from being my mother. She lied to me about many things, but she did not lie about her love for me. It was not shown, but I knew in her own way she loved me. My mother was not there during most of life, but she was when it really mattered. She was so supportive of me when I became pregnant. She would make sure I was doing alright during it. The night before I left for night there was seven Harry's. She brought me a vanilla shake and pickles. She would always make sure I as comfortable as I can get. She dealt with the constant complaints of its too cold, or its too hot. I remembered my pants not fitting right, so I cried. Bellatrix held me and told me everything was going to be fine. I feel like she felt guilty for not being there for those first fifteen years". Cortney stopped talking as a few tears slipped out. " She went above and beyond for my happiness. During my six year I remembered begging her to no have me go back to Hogwarts after Christmas break. My mother sat and talked with me for a few hours, till I was fine, and ready to go back. She rarely raised her voice at me. She was a good mom, as I speak now. I realize my mom truly loved, even with everything that went on. I miss you mom. I love you". Cortney walked off the podium and everyone clapped.
" That was beautiful," Seamus said walking up to her, kissing her cheek.
" Thanks," Cortney smiled as she was handed Dana.
" You guys had a special bond," Seamus pointed out.
" Ya," Cortney agreed.
" Cortney, " Pansy said walking up to her. " You did good".
" Thanks for helping me put this together," Cortney said gratefully.

A few weeks later, Cortney, Seamus and Dana were out for simple shopping trip. Mainly to just walk around Hogsmeade, like they did when they were younger. It was lightly snowing out. Dana was amazed by all the snow, she would not stop looking at it. Cortney was in a shop looking at some cute clothes for Dana, while Seamus was in the loo at the Three Broomsticks. He was changing Dana's diaper. He told her to go, he would catch up. Cortney pulled out a cute outfit. She turned around to just run into someone.
" I'm sorry I wasn't looking where I was going! " Cortney apologized.
" It's alright," a familiar Irish voice. She looked up to see Seamus on one knee, he held Dana so she stood on his knee. She had a ring in her hand. Cortney's hand flew to her mouth.
" Seamus-" Cortney breathed.
" Cortney, I love you more than words can describe. You are already the mother of our daughter. I can not stop smiling when I see you with her. I want to have more kids with you, but I cant till we get married. Will you marry me ? " Seamus asked. Cortney nodded her head happily.
" Yes," Cortney breathed. Seamus slid the ring on Cortney's finger, he got up and kissed her. They then parted, they looked Dana, who was still in Seamus's arms. She was smiling and clapping.
" Sorry for running into you," Cortney apologized as they looked at each other.
"I planned for you to run into me," Seamus corrected.
" Why? " Cortney asked tilting her head confused.
" Cause that's how we first met, after the welcome feast at our first night at Hogwarts," Seamus answered.
" Aweeeee, Seamus," Cortney cooed.
