A week later and Harry had developed a more structured routine throughout each day, he would wake up, have breakfast and attend his first class with Hannah, then come back to the little quarters for some rest before their last two classes of the day. Harry still seemed slightly resistant towards his little headspace and he often tried to delay when he started to slip from the late afternoon into the evening but Autumn with her skills always managed to get him to relax enough and coax out the little side in him.

In the evenings Severus would come and visit Harry and spend time with him as they settled down for the night, often also joining him for dinner at the same time, twice a week Draco and Harry would spend the evening in Severus' quarters which both boys loved!

Earlier that week Severus had spent a very busy weekend, as promised, helping the house elves re-arrange Draco's room for both the boys to stay in, first they placed an expansion charm on the room, doubling it in size. Then Severus got Harry a low bed that had raised sides to it, he set it up in the corner of the room against the wall, along with many plushies and a very warm blanket. He added toy boxes with muggle lego's, books and magical toys, he finally added an extension charm to Draco's wardrobe and charmed it to show the contents from Harry's wardrobe in the little's dorm.

Both boys had run laps of the room in excitement when they had been shown the new makeover, insisting that night they slept in their new room, and Severus for the first time in a long time let a genuine smile cross his face, his Godson's made him a happy man, and there was not much that could accomplish that! Their faces currently beaming up at him, Draco bouncing on the tips of his feet and Harry practically climbing his way up Severus' robes, the man reaching down to the little and settling him on his hip.

"Pleaseeeeee Sev, please can me and Harry stay for the night?" Draco whined

"Well I suppose so, how can I say no to that face, little brat." Severus replied with a smirk, reaching a hand out to ruffle Draco's hair whilst the other held Harry in his arms.

Both boys in return squealed and Harry wiggled to get down from his godfathers hold.

"Hold on a minute little man, i think someone is in need of a change before you go causing chaos in my quarters, lets get you all clean and dry first." Sev replied to which Harry crossed his arms over his chest and leant back 'glaring' at Severus, how dare he delay his play time!

"No Sev, Harry plays now. Harry doesn't need a change." At this comment Severus had to bite down on his lip to hide a smirk, still highly amused by the habit Harry had picked up on referring to himself using his own name.

"No can do little one" he said patting softly on Harry's particularly wet diaper. That's what he got in return for getting the little too excited!

Despite the squirming little in his arms, Severus managed to bring Harry over to the changing table set up in his bathroom and make quick work of removing, cleaning, powdering and taping on a new diaper. "See, that wasn't so bad now, much more comfy and dry!" he said with a layer of enthusiasm, putting Harry on his feet and sending him toddling towards his new room where Draco was waiting.

For dinner that evening, the boys happily devoured macaroni cheese with garlic bread and took Severus and Autumn for a walk round the castle to burn of their energy.

"Harry, don't get too close to the-" 

splash

"Oh for goodness sake, child!" Severus murmured in frustration as Autumn rushed to scoop the little from the shallows of the lake where Harry just slipped on a rock and onto his backside. 

"'m sorry, Sev." Draco spoke from his godfathers side, watching as Autumn dried harry off with a charm, following quickly with a warming charm to stop the small child from catching a cold. "I should've been watching him better and looking after him. I forgot how little he is compared to me, and I should have been more careful and-"

"That's enough Draco." Severus interrupted and paused. "It was not your fault, child. It was an accident. Harry is fine, he is not hurt, he may be a little cold but it's nothing a little magic can't fix. Now go back and play, but..." he clamped a hand down on Draco's shoulder. "for merlin's sake child, please slow down or it will be you that's knocked down next!"

"Yes uncle Sev, sorry." He mumbled sheepishly.

By that point Autumn had walked over, having brought Harry away from the ledge of the water. 

"Whatever will we do with these children, Severus" She asked jokingly.

"Love them." He replied.
