The happiness of HP

Since the end of the war, Godric's Hollow has become a holy place in the eyes of many wizards.Now, wizard residents account for 90% of the total population in this valley, just like another Hogsmeade.The arrival of Harry and Severus did not alarm others, they came to the church door in the valley by means of Apparition.

"Apu, Al, are you feeling well?" Harry immediately confirmed to the children. He had taken the twins for 11 years, so he naturally knew that if he didn't take the initiative to ask, the twins would just suffer by themselves and wouldn't say anything. of.He still remembered that once when the children were young, he forgot to ask, and the children stubbornly endured the discomfort, but the magic riot broke out that night, and that time really frightened him.So, from then on, whenever Harry Apparated with the twins, he would ask this question.

"It's nothing uncomfortable, Dad. You've brought us more and more proficiency in the apparition experience." Artemis said lively.

"Besides, we grew up stronger and took medicine, so we won't scare Dad like we did when we were young." Apollo knew what Dad was worried about.

Harry silently stretched out his hands to touch the tops of the twins' hair. If the two children can stop taking medicine at some point, they can be regarded as really healthy.I have suffered a lot following myself all these years, alas...

{It will always be fine. } Severus reached out and squeezed Harry's hand, then looked at the twins and Jacobson.

"Teacher, sir, what kind of place is this?" Jacobson looked around, full of curiosity about this strange place.

"This is a small valley called Godric's Hollow. This place is the birthplace of many outstanding wizards." Harry introduced to the three children, "Ms. Bathilda Bagshot, a very famous historian of magic, died during her lifetime. I have lived here for a long time. It is said that this is the hometown of Godric Gryffindor, one of the four founders of Hogwarts. In addition, the former headmaster of Hogwarts, Albus Dumbledore, also grew up here."

Harry didn't mention himself, and walked slowly into the churchyard with his partner, in his heart, even now, he never thought of himself as a "distinguished" member.As a matter of fact, for what he has done along the way, whether it is in the war or in the adventurer's big hunt, if he can't be called "outstanding", I'm afraid no one can be. .

The cemetery was very deserted in winter, and many tall and hardy evergreen trees were planted around the church, because there had been a heavy snowfall the night before, and the snow covered the treetops, and there were also very beautiful icicles.If you look at it from a distance, it is a very beautiful snow scene.

In the cemetery, there were many more tombstones than the last time Harry came.It reminded Harry that many years had passed.The snow covers these monuments of the living, or should I say, the stones of proof of the dead, testifying to the dead who have been lying quietly beneath them, proving that those who passed away were once born in this world, or brave , or cowardly; or outstanding, or unknown;

Harry almost came straight to the grave of the Potters, silently reached out to wipe off the snow on the tombstone, and melted the frost on the surface of the tombstone with the warmth of his palm.During this period, he didn't use a single spell, and his hands were flushed red from the snow and frost.The three children, Apollo, Artemis and Jacobson felt distressed and wanted to help Harry.However, Severus stopped them.

"Father (sir)?" The children looked at Severus who was blocking them with some surprise.

"Don't go, he's never really gotten along with his parents..." Severus knew Harry's mood.For Harry, although after practicing Occlumency and Mind Reading, he can know his memories when he was not yet sensible, and he can see how Lily and James cared and loved him in every possible way as a baby, but this It just adds to the sadness.

Although Severus felt sorry for Harry's hands that were red from the frost, he didn't stop Harry from doing it.He just quietly felt Harry's sadness and regret at this moment, and silently supported Harry mentally.Severus knew what it was like to lose a parent, and knew it was irreparable.

"Dad, Mom..." Harry wiped off the snow and frost on the tombstone, knelt quietly in front of the tombstone, conjured some white lilies, and placed them in front of the tombstone.

"I haven't been back for 12 years. I just came to see you now. I hope you don't mind." Facing the tombstone, Harry whispered, "12 years ago, on the eve of my departure from England, I also came here. I To you, I lost my love, and for a Potter, the loss of a lover is never long. But I also said then, I will live strong, because I have his children , I will try my best to live until the children no longer need me. Then, I can follow him and leave this world. I have traveled to many places and met many people in the past 12 years...but there is nothing A place can give me more touch and warmth, and no one understands me better than him and knows how to love me. For 12 years, I commemorate him with everything I have, and commemorate everyone who lived there people who died in the war.

"When I left the dragon clan land, I knew I should come back right away, but I didn't. I went to complete some missions to collect materials. In fact, after I got the dragon soul, my mission completion rate has dropped. And the most important thing. In fact, these years, I have been living around England. I don't know how long I can live in England without him.

"I missed when I killed the snow monster, Mom and Dad, when the big sharp claw fell, I was still thinking: If I die like this, will he be called the Gryffindor troll... Fortunately, that The thing didn't kill me, but it also hurt me. When I saw my injury seriously, the first thought that popped up was: It's okay, if it ruins my appearance, no one will look at it anyway.

"Mom and Dad, I don't tell you this to worry you, because it's all over. I tell you this, so you can understand how much I love him. Because I know Dad will object, because he is Severus Snape. Oh, of course I know he's Mom's friend, but he's my partner and the father of my two kids. They're all here today - Severus, my boys, and My apprentices. They are my home, my family. I love them.

"Now I am very happy. In the 13 days since I came back to the UK again, I found that this is the most carefree and happiest day I have lived since losing you. I believe that you will support me... "

Harry sat on his knees on the snow, talking ramblingly, and after he finished speaking, he stood up from the ground.Severus immediately stepped up and hugged him from behind.Wrapping Harry's red and cold hands in his own, Harry glanced at his partner and smiled happily.

"Lily, Potter, Harry is in my charge now, and I won't let him suffer any more. When we meet again, I think I'll apologize for touching your lion cub, but I Still love him." Severus said with a hint of awkwardness after looking at the tombstone for a long time.

After that, Apollo and Artemis came to the tombstone, bowed obediently, and called out: "Grandpa, grandma."

And Jacobson sang the traditional elegy of the elves for James and Lily, which is the highest respect of the elves for the dead.

Coming out of Godric's Hollow, the family took the Knight Bus to the Martyrs' Cemetery.Of course, in order not to be recognized by others, both Harry and Severus made a small modification, and used the ignore spell to prevent the two of them from being recognized by others on the bus.

There are many tombstones of wizards who lost their lives due to wars in the cemetery. Harry searched the past row by row, and paused every time he saw a familiar name, and used magic to sweep away the snow and frost from the tombstones. .

There is Sirius' tombstone here, and interestingly, next to him is the grave of Lupine and his wife.Maybe people think Sirius and Remus are very good friends, but in Harry and Severus's eyes, there is some irony.Harry also knew something about the godfather and Professor Lupine, but the dead are gone.He and Severus wouldn't tell anyone else, it was for the sake of their reputation.Furthermore, with that little Lupine's current temperament, if he knew about these secrets, he didn't know what problems would arise.

Then, Harry also found Fred Weasley's tombstone, standing in front of the tombstone of his former friend, Harry was silent for a long time.But he finally smiled and said, "Fred, I'll go and see George later."

"Sev, is there anyone you want to see?" Harry asked his partner before leaving the cemetery.

"No." Severus looked back at the stacked tombstones again.

"Then, let's go see Mr. Riddle and then go to St. Mungo's to see Angelina." Harry said.

"Wait, there was no..." Severus was surprised on this trip.

"It's okay, it's still early anyway," Harry said.

"However, don't take the children there." Severus looked at the children worriedly, "Today they have already done an apparation and a knight bus."

"I still think it's necessary to take the children there to make them understand something." Harry said, "It's just a tombstone. He has been dead for 12 years and will not bother us again."

"Perhaps, wouldn't it be nice to take the kids there again on Remembrance Day in May?" Severus said.

"Will that be too grand? I think I will be surrounded that day." Harry laughed.

"Father, father, what are you talking about? Whose tomb do we want to see?" Artemis asked.

"Tom Marvolo Riddle, aka Voldemort," said Harry. "Do you want to go?"

The twins were so surprised, they looked at each other...
