Sure enough it was Christmas break. Harry and Hermione were sitting on the train on their way home. Ron's parents and sister were going to Romania to visit Charlie so he, the twins and Percy were staying at school.

Sure enough they were looking for their parents.

"Harry, over here!" Lily said.

So he said goodbye to Hermione and headed to his parents.

"Hi mum, hi dad."

"Hello Harry." Lily said.

"Ready to go? Remus is looking after Rose." James said.

Harry nodded and then headed home.

When they got there they saw Remus and Sirius sitting there talking while Rose colored.

"Hi Padfoot! Hi Moony! Hi Ro!" Harry said.

"Hey pup, how ya doing?" Sirius said giving him.

Harry's Sirius' pup and Remus' cub. Rose is Sirius' Prongslet and Remus' cubling. Remus is a very protective alpha of his pack, especially for Harry.

"Good." Harry said hugging back.

Then Remus hugged Harry.

"Not getting into trouble are you?" Remus asked.

"No, I'm try not to."

"Good. I don't need a repeat of these three." Lily said while the three Marauders whistle in innocence.

After that Rose gave Harry a tight hug.

"You're killing my back Ro! I'm right here and will be here for a few weeks!"

She let him go.

"Sorry."

"It's ok."

Sure enough it was Christmas and as usual Sirius and Remus were there.

"Happy Christmas you two." Sirius said.

The twins looked at each other and nodded.

"Happy Christmas Padfoot." Harry said.

"Ready for parents everyone?" Lily asked.

"Tweeky and Daisy are making dinner right now so let's do that." James said.

"Alright." Harry said.

"Sure." Rose said.

"Can you two open mine first?" Sirius said.

"Sure, I guess." Rose said.

So they opened them and Harry got a batch of broom cleaning kit. And Rose got a gold and red necklace.

Remus got Harry a few books of Defense Against the Dark Arts because he knew it was his favorite and best subject. And Rose a few books of mysteries,

James got Harry a new book of 'Quidditch between the ages'. And Rose a new 'The Tales of Beedle the Bard' after losing her other book. Harry will offer to share it but she said it would be better if they had their own books. He knew it was Tracey's favorite book.

Lily got them both a warm blanket for school for Harry and home for both if they get cold.

And Molly got them both a Weasley sweater, Harry green and Tracey red. Hermione got them chocolate.

Then for their parents and uncles Harry got Sirius a bone and everyone laughed. The dog was trying to get it in his mouth. Tracey him a squeaky toy. They all laughed even harder.

Remus and James laughed the hardest and on their back. They had done that once in school but secretly because no one knew they were unregistered animagi. Now only the 4 Marauders, Lily, Snape, Rose and Harry knew. Voldemort might know from Peter but they don't know.

Lily from their seventh year when James and Lily started dating. Remus trusted her enough to tell her his 'fury little problem'. Snape after the accident sixth year. And the kids because they're their friends kids and are their godparents. They trust them enough to keep it quiet.

"Oh my ribs! Someone get me a potion!" Remus said.

"M-me t-too!" James said.

The dog was starting to get to Sirius. He had a lot of trouble fighting it in him.

When they all calmed down they got back to giving the others their present. Lily got a necklace from Harry and a bracelet from Rose. James got a watch from Both of them put together and Remus a book from Harry and chocolate from Rose.

They went shopping the other day after lunch.

"Thanks guys, we love our presents." Lily said.

"I can see Padfoot loves his bone Harry." James said while Remus laughed and watched Sirius in his dog form munching on his new bone.

He finally gave in after everyone getting their present.

He stopped for a second and barked with a fast wagging tail. Then went right back to his bone.

"You're welcome." Harry said.

Then he started barking again. Harry looked at Remus. Being a werewolf he could understand dogs.

"He said he owes you a strong lick later when you go to bed." he said.

A few hours had gone by and the kids were in bed. Sirius had just came in Harry's room.

"I owe you a strong lick don't I?"

He switched into a dog and started licking him nonstop.

"OK, OK, haha! Stop it!" Harry said.

Finally he stopped and was back in his human form.

"Night pup."

Then he gave him a kiss and shut the light off.

The next day Harry decided to do his homework. So he decided to go ask his parents for some help while they were there. He tried to get it done but still had some trouble.

"Mum, dad, can you help me with our homework? I just need some help with transfiguration and charms." Harry said.

His parents smiled.

"Sure thing."

He nodded and started his homework.

Sure enough he was back on his way back to school.
