"Momma?" Celestia ran down the stairs of the manor, searching for her mother. "Momma!"
"Yes, dear?" Lilith stepped out of the kitchen to look for her daughter.
"Have you seen father? I've been trying to find him for so long now!" The 5 year old complained. "This is not how you play hide-and-seek, father!" She yelled in the hopes that Draco would hear her.
"I don't know, sweetie. Why don't you check the gardens?" Lilith pointed to the window that revealed a part of the garden. "Do you want me to help you?"
Celestia nodded as she grabbed her mother's hand and walked out to the garden. They walked around in the garden for about 10 minutes before they realized that Draco was nowhere in sight. "Come on, father. I want to play something else!" Lilith picked Celestia up, carrying her in her arms as they continued to overlook the garden.
"Well, if it isn't my two favorite girls," Draco hugged Lilith from behind. "Looks like I win, Cece."
"Where did you hide?" Celestia turned her face to look at her father. "Can you show me?"
"Maybe some other day, alright? Your aunts and uncles are coming over today and you want to help me bake the pies for Uncle Ron, don't you?" Lilith set Celestia down as she patted down the wrinkled parts of her dress.
"Yeah! Is Albus coming over?" Celestia asked. Lilith and Draco nodded and Celestia ran to go inside. "I'm going to go get the toys!"
"You shouldn't hide that well," Lilith chuckled as she stayed facing the garden, closing her eyes and taking in the warm summer breeze.
"Scared you'll lose me and won't ever find me, Lilith?" Draco pulled her into his chest.
Ever since the day of the wedding and after that, Draco and Lilith started calling each other by their first names. It was long overdue. Rarely did they call each other by their last names anymore—they left their childish ways behind. They were no longer immature but they still had their compatible sense of humor.
"I'll always find you, Draco" she said as she relied her head on him.
"I'm counting on that."
The timing couldn't have been better—the sun was setting. They both preferred sunsets over sunrises, so every evening they would go out to the garden, set down a blanket, and watch as the sun hid behind the horizon. It was their own thing—sometimes staying up late to stargaze as Celestia slept. Not once, even after having a child, did they stop surprising each other with romantic outings or dinners.
"Now, come on, we have guests," Draco pecked the side of Lilith's head as the sun finally set, turning her around to face him and lead her inside.
"Momma!" Celestia exclaimed as she looked out the window of the manor, facing the gates, "Uncle Harry and Aunt Ginny are here."
Draco rolled his eyes, "I'll never understand why Potter decided to name one of his sons 'Albus Severus.' I mean, one man literally planned out when he would 'die' and neglected other students' problems, and the other one was a crazy obsessed man with his mother. At least his older son has it better. James Sirius Potter—now that's a nice name."
"You better not mention that in front of his son, Draco. He's heard it enough times. You literally started telling him that from the moment we found out Ginny was pregnant," Lilith hit the side of Draco's body, slightly shoving him to the side.
