Chapter Text
The following week, everything happened quickly.
Chucking her alarm clock for good, Hermione packed up her office and her flat. She left her job to Pip and officially moved in with Severus, bringing her poor cookery skills and her dim-witted owl Karen along with her.
The day of their departure, Molly threw them a farewell breakfast, inviting all their friends to send them off. Severus bore it with good humour, making Harry's baby girl a hideous orange balloon cat.
With an hour before their Portkey to visit Fiona and Charlie in Romania, Hermione hugged everyone goodbye and took Severus's hand, hopeful for the future.
There was time for a coffee on the way.
EPILOGUE: FIFTY YEARS LATER Time for coffee? ...Always.
