Twins: A Different Life

Back To School

Draco came running into Harry's room flushed with excitement. He was dressed in his Hogwarts robes and grinning. "Hurry up," he, excitedly, called, " We have things to do as soon as we get back."

"Yes I know, I'm ready now. I had to perfect my new look. I'm spending too much time around you," Harry grinned. He received a whack around the head for his comment, though Draco didn't deny it.

"Uncle Sirius is still moaning about going back to teach Potter, mother silenced him much to Moony's relief." Draco told him, he had taken to calling Sirius and Remus 'uncle' just as Harry had started calling Cissa and Lucius 'aunt' and 'uncle'.

"Aunt Cissa did the right thing, poor uncle Moony has to live with father." Harry said, he had taken to calling Sirius father as he saw the man a better one than his birth father. There was no question in his mind; Sirius Orion Black was his father and nothing anyone could ever say would dispute that. They both left the room and headed for the sitting room, where they were greeted by the weirdest of sights: Sirius was laid on the floor with his arms around Lucius' leg, Remus and Snape seemed to be trying to pry him off and Narcissa looked as if she was holding herself up on Lucius with laughter.

"What in Merlin's name?" They burst out before giving in to fits of laughter, the adults gathered their baring's quickly as Draco and Harry continued to clutch each other in support.

"Oh Merlin," Draco wheezed.

"That was the funniest thing I have ever seen." Harry gasped.

"I don't even want to know. Just remember that we are never going to forget that." Draco sighed wiping his eyes.

"Come on you two, leave the children to play," Narcissa said with a smile, they smirked at the affronted men and followed her to the fireplace. Harry found himself in a tight hug from Narcissa and a kiss on the cheek. "Be good and write regularly, I'll see you in the summer." She told him. Harry gave her a quick smile before he threw floo powder into the grate.

"Marauder's Pad, Sanctuary." He called and vanished in a flash of green flames, moving aside so Draco could come through. They fell onto the couch in wait but when the adults didn't come in the first five minutes the boys grew bored.

"Shall we leave them a prank and go to the feast?" Draco suggested and Harry smirked, they set up a charm that would change their robed bright orange and green as soon as they left the portrait hole. Harry also charmed the couch to sing when sat on and they left, hurrying down to join the rest of the students for the feast. Sirius and Remus rushed in at the last minute, throwing glares at the innocent-faced first years as they moved to their places at the Head table. Once everyone had settled, the Headmaster rose with a grandfatherly smile on his face.

"Welcome back, I hope your Christmas' were wonderful; dig in." He announced and the feast began. It feast passed quickly, Harry and Draco spoke with their friends and Harry pointed out his new name and Heir, especially to Pansy. She was one of the biggest gossips in the school and if they wanted anything put out there they would go to her, she could make the most outlandish of stories pop up and be believed from apparent thin air, and it never appeared to originate from Slytherin House. Harry gave it until tomorrow before the entire school knew, including the staff.

"You know that you are going to be in for some arguments because of this," Draco muttered to him and Harry smirked.

"Oh I know, I can't wait to see his face." They left the hall but a voice stopped Harry in his tracks.

"Harrison Regulus Black." He winced

"Oh, you got the full name." Draco laughed

"You too Draco Lucius Malfoy,"

"Looks like you did too, Dray." Theo snickered at the both of them, Harry turned around to face his father with a beaming smile.

"Father, so good to see you, it's been a while, we should catch up."

"A prank on our door, really?" Sirius asked, sighing with an amused look. Harry and Draco both looked confused, immediately changing to innocent.

"What are you talking about?" Draco asked bewildered.

"We came through the floo and went to the feast," Harry told him with a nod.

"I think you should look to the other marauder you live with." Draco pointed out. Sirius glanced at them looking confused.

"What- I mean, never mind," He grumbled and walked away shaking his head. The pair high-fived.

"We are good," Harry said.

"So good." Draco agreed and they carried on to the dungeons, happily getting settled back into the Snape pit and having a brief catch-up with the rest of their year mates before heading to bed early for lessons tomorrow.

Hey, Lovelies. I am so sorry that I haven't written in so long. I successfully completed my Junior year and my summer college program. This school year I only have one class in the morning until semester. I am sorry for the shorter chapter. I am so sorry, once again. Have a wonderful day/night and enjoy.
