Not so Normal Life in a Normal World

Harry dropped the negative pregnancy test in the small trashcan by the toilet. Months of trying and it still ended the same, Negative. With a sigh, Harry turned on the sink to wash his hand. Any little time Harry thought his body was changing, he hoped of the pregnancy, but it seemed to never come. It was starting to become clear. It was to late. Harry was trying hard to convince himself to be Satisfied with six children, but that was very hard on the man.
Harry dried his hands off and left the bathroom. He walked over to the bed. Draco still laid sleep, with Castiel nuzzled to him. The toddler boy just didn't like to sleep by himself. They thought about putting Castiel with Nathaniel, but having a teenager share a room with a toddler seemed...unfair, but then again, most nights? Nathaniel ended up asleep on the couch. The boy unable to sleep in his own room, not since Eleanor moved out.

Eleanor moved out and into an apartment with Rain, over the summer. It was a big change for everybody. Nathaniel the most it seemed liked. His whole life, she'd always been there.

Harry, wasn't going back to sleep so he turned off the light to the bathroom and shut the door behind him as he left the bedroom. He walked down the staircase and glaced over at the couch. Sure enough, Nathaniel was sleep on the couch. Harry walked over to him, pulling the blanket back over his body. Harry picked up the television remote, turning the television off. He put the remote on the coffee table, before he walked to the kitchen and started a pot of coffee. Harry stood Staring at the picture on the refrigerator. It was of the weeding. It had all eight of them;
Harry held Castiel on his hip, who looked like a very sleep toddler. The twins stood hugging one another in a laughter. By the point the picture was took, their long brunette hair had came down some, making their pig tails, messy. Nathaniel had his hands locked on the shoulders of Leonardo, who was the only one no A preoccupied with something else during the picture. The boy smiled big. Nathaniel head was turned to face his big sister, who was in the middle of a side hug with Draco, getting a kiss on her cheek by Harry. It was their favorite picture. It was Harry's favorite picture of them.
Harry's thoughts ended hearing the footsteps of Nathaniel. "Didn't mean to wake you, son." Harry said, turning towards his pot of coffee. "It's alright. Why, why are you up?" Nathaniel asked, grabbing the two of them a mug. "Just couldn't sleep any longer. Still having trouble sleeping?" Harry asked. "That sould be obvious." Nathaniel pointed out, pouring them both some coffee. "So is Castiel." Harry said, as his son opened the refrigerator. Nathaniel grabbed his Coffee creamer, pouring a touch into his coffee, before he sat it back in the refrigerator. "That so?" Nathaniel said, as Harry grabbed his black coffee and sat down at the table. "Yeah. Draco and I have thought about it, but Castiel is just a toddler." Harry pointed out. "I'd get it try. I don't like having the room to myself. Elly and I, have always shared. It very strange." Nathaniel said. "Are you sure about that? Castiel can get pretty excited in the mornings." Harry said, as Nathaniel sat across form him. "Yesh, I'm sure. I thought about it right before Elly moved out, but...I wasn't sure what you'd  think." Nathaniel said. Harry took a drink of his coffee, but smiled. "I think it would solve a lot of problems." Harry said. "Yeah? Cass is fun anyway." Nathaniel took a drink of his coffee. "How come you haven't really dated the girl you brought to the wedding?" Harry asked. "Because her daddy is a preacher. He's got problems with us dating so it's making it more complicated." Nathaniel said. "I see. Well, once you two are adults, there's not much stopping her." Harry said. "Yes, I know. I'm fine with texting and phone calls anyway. School is a little harder for me anyway." Nathaniel said.

Castiel noticed Harry had left the bed, when the toddler had half woke up so he had slipped off the  big bed and worked himself down the stairs and walked into the kitchen where they sat. Harry  waved the toddler over and picked him up once he walked over. He sat Castiel on his lap and the toddler relaxed against Harry. Nathaniel reached over and ruffled his hair. "Looks like you are my new roommate." The teenager said. Castiel giggled. He might be almost three years old, but he didn't like having a bedroom to himself. He was happy to hear he would be sharing a room with his big brother.
