What the Others Did

For the others involved in the story that have definitely not been forgotten, here are their short futures.

From the rain came the couples that said no to society, no to rules, no to playing safe and no to stupidity. Life would be better for them all from now on. They'd planned for a better future.

Lavender Brown and Theo Nott – Taking the World by Storm

She was a tall blonde and no longer a shrieking girl who did nothing but gossip. He was tall dark and handsome. The quiet guy whose silence spoke of a million secrets. They'd been weary of each other at first. A Slytherin and a Gryffindor, when was that ever a good combination but the secret glances, the bare touches and the conversations bought them closer together. The night of the fabled werewolf attack changed things. He would never have forgiven himself if she had been hurt and she couldn't imagine her life without him. Family wasn't an issue neither was money or Hogwart's grades. He wanted to go into Publishing – a big market that he could expand upon if he created a company that dealt with both the Wizard and Muggle world. She wanted to be a fashion designer and she had the brains to do it. She wasn't a dumb blonde and never had been. He gave her the confidence to be herself and she gave him the ability to love without fear.

Pansy and Neville Longbottom – Redefining the Spark.

She was once a mean bully who was insecure herself. He was once a shy mouse afraid of his own shadow. The war had changed them. It had made them see the grey in the world. There as a lot of grey compared to the black and white that others saw. Suddenly what was right and what was wrong seemed insignificant. She wanted more from life. Surrounded by boys she lacked the one man that set her heart a flutter, that sent her veins burning with fire and the man that would follow her in her dreams. She wasn't looking for 'the one', she was looking for the 'right one' and the one with a spark. He'd become someone new. He had this confidence he'd never had before. He's seen her one day and seen how beautiful she'd become and wanted her. They'd stood up for a mutual friend at the same time and suddenly realised the connection they shared. They were more alike than they imagined. They had the same passions, desires and aspirations. He wanted to be a Herbologist, to travel the world and find plants that had yet to be discovered and she didn't know what she wanted to do but as long as she was with Neville she didn't care.

Luna Lovegood and Adrian Pucey – Proving There Are Always More Fish in the Sea

She'd been yearning for him for so long but he let her down again and again. She thought the boy-who-lived would change because he loved her enough to see his mistakes but he didn't. So she let him go, it was for the best and she knew it. That's when he'd found her, broken and struggling to survive. He thought she was the most wonderful girl in the world. She captivated him. He found himself watching her every move. He helped her heal and in turn he fell in love with her. She was the light to his darkness. Her words of wisdom were like a cool sea breeze and he could lose himself in the safety of her words. She in turn saw him in a new light, she saw not the friend she'd gained or the one who'd fixed her. Instead she saw the one who held her heart and the one she couldn't live without. Where the future would take them she didn't know or care – neither did her – they would be together which was all that mattered.

Daphne Greengrass and Blaise Zabini – Are Those Wedding Bells We Hear?

She'd follow him to the ends of the earth and back again. She'd keep his secrets, she'd been his shoulder to cry on, she'd be the steady voice he listened to and she'd be his forever. He'd love her for all his days, he'd protect her from harm, he'd defend her honour, he'd listen to her every word, and he'd make her feel treasured every day. Theirs was a love story to rival another's and they'd been together through it all. Before the war, were everyone was pretending to be safe, through the war where everyone was scared, after the war where everyone was picking up the pieces. Through the return of the real Hermione, through the death of Marcus and through the return of Andre, they'd climbed every mountain. He'd marry her right now if she asked and actually he intended to marry her before the year was through. He didn't want to miss one minute of their life together, they deserved this, deserved each other.

The others don't bare a mention, Harry, Ron, Ginny and Victor. Bad things happen to bad people. The roads you chose to walk down are the roads you live for life. You don't get to turn around and come back if you've made a mistake. Some of the decisions we make in life we make forever. There is no undoing some mistakes. Perhaps some time in the future these four people will learn from their mistakes, or perhaps that is wishful thinking. One can only hope.
