**So the reason it took so long to publish was because I kept going back and forth on making two separate chapters for both POVs on the weekends like Harry, Sirius, and Remus together then James and Henry together or putting them all together in one chapter. So this is what I finally decided on.**

-Saturday-

Remus, Sirius, & Harry

Saturday morning Harry found himself bundled in one of Remus' sweaters and a spare blanket that smelled like his mates while he sat outside on the small back porch area while he studied his Potions Book. Every so often Harry stabbed a piece of cut up fruit with a fruit pick popping it into his mouth without looking up from his reading.

"There you are." Harry looked up with a piece of mango halfway to his mouth and saw Remus stepping out of the house closing the sliding door behind him, "You smelled so much like Sirius I passed by you at least three times."

"Probably because your husband decided I was part of the mattress and in fact did not need to breathe in anything other than his hair last night." Harry said

"Yeah he does that sometimes." Remus wrapped his robe around himself a little tighter as the wind picked up, "I would ask if you're hungry, but apparently you are not." He stepped towards him then grabbed his wrist and brought the mango to his mouth, pulling it off the pick.

"I just had the house elf bring me the fruit and I cut it up myself. I woke up pretty early." Harry stabbed a cantaloupe sphere and popped it into his mouth, "Sirius still asleep?"

"Getting dressed." Remus moved to sit beside him and grabbed his own fruit pick then stabbed a raspberry, "Have you thought more about Severus' offer?"

"Well on one hand it would give me a reason to be at Hogwarts with everyone next year, but on the other hand I really don't want to be around Lily that much, but on that point it could help build...something to make James happy so...yes I've thought about it, but no I haven't decided."

"Well don't do anything if you don't want to."

"I won't." Harry said just as the door slid open again and Sirius stepped out.

"I see everyone is eating without me." Sirius said, using his fingers to grab a few cut fruit before sitting down with the fruit in his other hand.

"There were picks right there Sirius."

"I washed my hands, Moonpie." Sirius said dismissively

"It's hard to imagine that you're almost forty." Harry said looking at the man beside him

"Excuse me, but we do not speak that word in this family."

"You only got what? Two and a half years left?"

"Speaking of birthdays." Remus interrupted before Harry could rile Sirius up any more, "What do you want for yours?"

"Mine? Pretty sure mine passed months- You mean the July one." Harry realized

"What did you do for the other one?" Sirius asked

"Went out for lunch, bought some books, spent the day with my Papa. Papa and I don't really do gifts in that sense. Papa brought home presents so often that I guess I got used to them."

"Well if you think of something let us know. James apparently came up with an idea and didn't tell us." Sirius told him around a ball of cantaloupe.

Harry grimaced then flicked his wrist and a napkin appeared between his index and middle finger towards the man-child. Sirius only stared at it.
