The Potter Household:

Three days subsequent to Harry's realization, Ginny, unbeknownst to Harry, had tracked down the Dursleys and had invited them over for dinner that night.

"Why didn't you tell me before!?!? We have to hide all the magic equipment, and clean the house, and"' Harry went on and on about how stressful his wife was.

"It's alright honey, I cleaned the house and hid the magical items. I don't think Dudleys wife knows that we can do...you know what." Ginny soothingly calmed Harry down, before shouting, "Kids!! Come down to the kitchen right this moment!!!"

The sound of small feet clattered down the stairs. Lily, Albus, and James all sat down at the table.

"Children, your father and I would like to talk to you about some very special guests who are coming tonight." Their mother started.

"Your Uncle Dudley and his family are coming to visit!" Harry said witb fake cheer in his voice. The kids were obviously confused, they had never met "Uncle Dudley" before.

Harry continued: "Your cousins are muggles and they don't know about our world, so you must not, I repeat must not," Harry aimed his gaze directly at James, the twelve year old mischief maker, "Do magic in front of them."

Nine year old Lily and eleven year old Albus nodded obediently, while James smirked mischievously. Their father gave him another glare. James stopped smirking.

"Lily and Albus, your cousins are the same age as you, so you guys can play together. James, because you are the oldest child, I expect you to be mature." Harry lectured.

The Dursleys household:

Tonight was the big night. Dudley was choosing a tie for the dinner. Baby blue or lavender, he thought. Finally choosing the shade of lavender, Dudley went over in his head who he was about to see.

Knock Knock.

Dudley jumped.
"Dudders, it's time to leave!" Ella, his wife, called out from behind the closet door.
Dudley hesitantly stepped outside, to find his daughters and wife waiting for him.
"Come on daddy!", Lauryn said.
"Yes, I want to go!" Yelled Alice.
The Dursley family got into their silver Aston Martin, and started towards the Potter's house.

How this dinner was going to end neither families did not know, but one thing was certain. Something was going to go wrong.
