"Technically, yes. Holly is your cousin." Harry said, handing Holly her bottle. Holly fussed out, but started to drink her bottle. "Ma said Peter woke her up form her nap." Draco said. "I'm not that hungry anyway." Lily said. "Oh, no. If I have to eat, so do you." Harry said. "Brother that's different and you know it." Lily said, but picked up her fork, getting a look form Harry. Harry's head was trying to do that thing again. Making him feel fat, very fat. "Harry, i have enough to make another salad, and it's all form that flee market." Draco said and after Harry poked at his food for a moment. "Yeah, that would be better." Harry said.

Harry ended up carrying a sleeping Maddie to bed. She fell asleep watching the movie. It was Friday and they had family movie night. Henrietta was yawning as she followed Harry carrying her sister to bed. "You...never give me a bedtime?" She said. "If you can stay up that long. Fifteen till ten. I'd say though-" Harry said and she yawned. "Nine is hard with getting up at four am." She fussed. "Eight, would be for eight hours, but even I know that's early." Harry said, pulling the blanket over Maddie, who was still sound sleep. "We could just start getting up at five." She pointed out. "I think not. You can always take it upon yourself to go to bed easier. Sometimes me and Draco do." Harry pointed out. "Is that why sometimes you have the twins spent the night someplace else?" She asked. "Yes, and their grandparents like the quality time with them." Harry said and she nodded.

A week later, On September 9th. Narcissa handed the girls their bags for their homeschool information. "What if .. I change my mind later?" Henrietta asked. "Then you would have to talk to Harry and Draco, though, the children have all been homeschooled and they enjoy it." Narcissa said and at seven the girls joined the group of kids for school.

"Wasn't they suppose to pick us up by now?" Athena asked. It was a little after four. "She might know." Henrietta said, sitting on the couch. Athena slowly walked over to Narcissa who was sitting on the kitchen table with Zachary. Zachary was having a bad day. A real bad day. He was mumbling something and she held his hands. Athena seen he had been hitting himself. His cheek was red and his arms were cut up form his nails. "Athena, sweetie, now isn't the time." She said softly. Anthea had been around a girl who had autism and grabbed an ice pack. Zachary fussed out when the ice pack was put on his leg. "...cold." he fussed, but he laid his head down on his Mama's hands, who after a moment let go of his hands and was able to ruffle his hair slightly. "Where did you pick that up?" Narcissa asked watching her boy grabbed the ice pack. He sat up, putting both his hands on it. He liked the cold now. "The group home. Some like the cold, some like the hot. Sometimes it gives their mind something else to think about." Anthea said. "Better, buddy?" Narcissa said. "Daddy home?" He asked. "Yeah, go find daddy." She said, to watch her now 13 year old boy hurry off. "I thought...they were suppose to be picking us up, soon." Athena said. "I'm sure they are just hang up. Sometimes that happens." Narcissa said, but got to her feet. "I'll give them a call." She added.

Draco ended up coming a few minutes later to pick up the kids, the boys quick to run to their daddy and he picked them both up. "Hi, boys!" Draco smiled. "The girls were slightly worried." Narcissa said, but gave her son a kiss on the head. Draco rolled his eyes but smiled lightly. "We had a couple who wouldn't get out of the store, and a couple of the kittens got loose." Draco said, easing his boys back down to their feet.

Draco had dinner started shortly after they got home and The boys and Athena went to play. Henrietta, pick up the house phone and started to call somebody, but felt the tap on her shoulders. "Who exactly are you trying to call?" Harry asked, holding Holly on his hip. "The hospital." She whispered and after a pause. "Call, but next time, not after dinners been started and yes, you can give him the number." Harry said, grabbing a bottle for the baby to have some water.
Henrietta called her sisters to the phone soon and they took turns talking to their biological daddy, who was going to be in recovery for some time. Henrietta held the phone out for Harry who wasn't even sure if he was supposed to take the call, but grabbed the phone after a moment. "Run along girls." Harry said, before putting the phone to his ear.

The man's voice was very quiet, you could tell he didn't have a lot of energy, and pretty much just thanked Harry and whoever his partner was, for taking the three girls. To keep them together. Harry went to reply, but the phone was hung up. The man knew he really wasn't suppose to be speaking to the Forster parents, just his own girls, but he had to thank them. He just had to. "What, did he say?" Draco asked. "Not much." Harry said, putting the phone on the base. "Just thanked me really." Harry said, feeling the kiss on his cheek. "They didn't tell us much about him, do they know?" Harry asked. "Hen might, but I don't know. I just wanted them to get comfortable first was all." Draco asked. "That is fair." Harry said, before helping draco with dinner, but the phone ran. Harry picked it up.

"Hello."

"Oh, hello mrs. Timmy"

"I'll talk to Draco."

"Have a nice night."

Harry hung up the phone.
