A/n: Gosh, I'm so sorry! I didn't realize it had been cut off. It's not very long at all, since it's just an epilogue, but it should end with: …best man." So I hope it works this time!
Epilogue: The Best Man
"Captain Smith! Captain Smith! Can you tell us what exactly happened to Ron Weasley and what was Harry Potter's role in his death?"
Captain Smith sighed and turned to face the mob of reporters crowding around the podium where he was giving an official press release.
"Mr. Potter in no way caused the murder of Ronald Weasley. Mr. Weasley was entering the scene to aide Mr. Potter and was murdered in the line of duty, but not before ensuring that Draco Malfoy was killed."
"So it was Mr. Weasley that killed Draco Malfoy?" Another reporter shouted, "I `eard it was `arry Potter!"
"Mr. Weasley's family is receiving his Order of Merlin, First Class because of his actions that led to the downfall of Draco Malfoy. He died a hero, and deserves to be known as one. One more question."
"Yes, where is Mr. Potter today?"
Captain Smith smiled briefly.
"Mr. Potter is enjoying a day off...thank you everybody, thank you, now, if you'll excuse me, I have a wedding reception to attend."

"Harry…Harry look, it's time for the best man's speech…what do we need to do?" Ginny asked.
Harry smiled.
"Don't worry, I've got it."
Harry stood up from his chair and cleared his throat. At once, everyone fell silent, expectantly.
"As you all know, this is the part of all weddings where the best man makes a speech about the bride and groom. Well, it's my wedding and so we're going to do things a little differently, because after all, when has Harry Potter ever done anything normal?
A ripple of laugher ran through the crowd.
"Anyways, the best man can't make his speech, because quite frankly, the best man, my very best mate, is no longer here with us. So instead of talking about Hermione and me, I'm going to talk about the best man. Ron is-was-a great person. The first time I ever met Ron was when I was eleven, and had just found out that I was a wizard. I saw Ron, along with his family near the entrance to Platform 9 and three quarters. They kept disappearing randomly and as time wore by, I became more and more nervous because obviously, this family was making it onto the platform, and I had no idea how to do it. I remember how kind his mum was, and how she explained how to go through a solid brick wall. It was terrifying, but thanks to Ron and his family, I got through it. I, we, got through a lot of terrifying moments thanks to Ron. I wouldn't be here today if it weren't for his outstanding chess playing skills. In my second year, Ron was one of the only people who didn't think I was absolutely insane. Our third year was no different. Fourth year, we had a bit of a falling out, during which, both of us were completely miserable. Ron was there for me in our fifth year when my godfather died, in our sixth year when things were getting even more terrifying, and he was right beside me when Voldemort died. I've put Ron through hell this year, and we, Hermione and I, hate that in order for us to be the happiest we've ever been, we had to hurt him. Ron gave his life so that we could be together, and we will never forget that. I will always remember Ron Weasley, my best man."
