Hermione gathered her wizards and they all Apparated directly from Hogwarts grounds. She'd poured a little of her elemental magic across each bond, giving them the power they needed to work around the Apparition restriction. Hermione hadn't wanted to traverse the crowds to go past the boundary or get back into the castle. So in a matter of seconds, the five of them stood outside her house, their house now.
"This is our house," she murmured. It was a bit overwhelming. It wasn't everyday that she got everything she ever wanted. The shock of this perfect situation, the ideal outcome, made her slightly paranoid. She wondered if something had to go wrong to balance out her happiness. The idea that her wizards may not be as absolutely ecstatic as herself popped into her mind. She looked around at them. "Of course, if you all want it to be our house."
"Of course that's what we want, Granger," Draco said incredulously.
"What's wrong, kitten?" Adrian asked gently.
"Have you ever worried that something was so perfect, there must be something negative waiting around the corner?" Hermione asked.
"You're worried that we aren't as happy as you are," Theo observed.
She nodded.
"Did I ever tell you that the four of us talked about staying together, no matter who was chosen?" Theo asked.
Hermione shook her head. She felt a bit silly. These wizards had been friends for practically their whole lives. She should've realized they had discussed the various possibilities among themselves. They loved her, but they loved each other as well.
"If two of us were chosen, we didn't want to split up the group, so we were going to offer to give you your cake and let you eat it too," Draco grinned. "Four for the price of two!"
Hermione giggled.
"We agreed that it felt better being together and we'd hoped you would think so too," Adrian said, rolling his eyes and smiling at Draco.
"But your magic had the same plan we did," Marcus said. He lifted her hand to his chest, over his heart. "We're bonded now. Can't you feel me through the bond? Feel how much I love you, how much we all love you. We're all together now, nothing and no one is ever going to change that. I think we've already suffered through the bad things."
"You were attacked and Marcus was kidnapped!" Draco pointed out, as if she didn't know.
"I can feel it. I can feel each of you through the bonds." If she concentrated on them, she could pick up echoes of their emotions. "I just still don't believe this is all real. I'm afraid I'm in the best dream I've ever had."
"We're real and we're here, Mi," Theo grinned. "We're all going to live here together. We're a family and this is forever."
"Now though, I want my witch," Marcus all but growled. Hermione felt a wave of lust through the bond. "Let's all go inside."
"All of us, together at once?" Hermione asked. She felt a good old fashioned swoon coming on at the thought of having all four of them. Her lady bits were all dancing for joy.
"Unless you aren't ready for that," Adrian offered.
"No!" Hermione protested quickly, making them all grin. "I mean, no, that's fine. It's not like we haven't all slept together before."
"That was nothing, princess," Marcus said, picking her up and carrying her inside. Hermione tried to get down because Marcus' left arm was still broken. He had hoisted her up with just his right arm. Hermione didn't want to squirm too much and make Marcus work harder with his one good arm. "We were on our best behavior before. There's no holding back now."
