The Riddle Triplets

Meet the Weasleys

Rosie stood at the bottom of the stairs with her hands on her hips. 

"I SWEAR TO MERLIN, YOU THREE BETTER GET DOWN HERE NOW OR ELSE I-"

Hermione, Draco and Harry rushed down the stairs. "We're here!"

Rosie smirked. "Good. Now if you're ready, we need to get to Diagon Alley." 

"Where's dad?" Harry asked. 

Laughing, Rosie replied. "He's taking Jemmy to her ballet recital. Now come on!"

They gathered at the fireplace and Harry stepped in, grabbing some floo powder. "Diagon alley!" He shouted. 

-----------------

Half an hour later, they were just entering Madam Malkins to get new robes. Harry and Draco waited as Hermione got fitted. Just as Madam Malkin began measuring Hermione, the door opened and the Weasleys stepped in. Panicking slightly in case his friend recognized him, Harry turned his face away. Draco, however, seemed happy to chat. 

"Hello," he said politely. Mrs Weasley gave him a smile and ushered Ginny over to the second hand robes. 

"Why, hello there-"

"I don't believe-"

"We've met before-"

"Our names-"

"Are Fred-"

"And George-"

"Weasley, and-"

"you are?"

Chuckling slightly, Draco replied. 

"My name is...Marvolo. This is my brother Serpens and my sister up there is Casseopeia." He knew they couldn't use their real names. It would too suspicious."

"Are you going to Hogwarts?" Ron asked. 

"Er, no we're homeschooled. I'd love to go though, it sounds great." Harry said, joining the conversation.

"It is, mostly. There's a couple of awful teachers though. Snape's the worst." Ron said, making a face. 

"I'll take your word for it." Harry said, smiling slightly. 

Ron frowned, raising an eyebrow. "If you're homeschooled, what're you buying robes for?"

Well, shit.

Luckily for Harry, Draco jumped in. "They're just casual robes- you know, for everday stuff. We might get some formal ones too for parties, if we need them."

Ron nodded, seemingly satisfied with that answer. "oh, that makes sense. So, you lot are triplets then?"

Harry grinned, nodding. "Yeah, sure are. We must've been a torture to raise, I dunno how our parents handled it." 

He stopped for a moment, thinking. What would it have been like, growing up with siblings and a loving family? He shook his head, now definitely wasn't the time to be thinking about things like that. Maybe he'd mention it to Dray and Mione sometime. 
Realising that Ron had said something, he snapped back to attention. 

"...and we've got Fred and George- they're twins and they get into loads of trouble, I don't even want to think about what it would be like with three of them." Ron shuddered slightly. 

"Ha- er, Serpens, come on! We need to get measured for our robes now." Draco waved him over and Harry turned back to Ron. 

"Sorry! Maybe we'll catch up later?"

Ron grinned. "Sure! I hope you'll get to meet my friend Harry-I get the feeling he'd like you."

Harry smiled nervously and rushed over to Draco, who was chuckling at him.

"Oh, shut up," Harry muttered, giving Draco a playful shove. Draco only laughed harder.

"Well, come on, you two! We haven't got all day!" And with that Hermione had shoved them both in the direction of Madam Malkin.

Okay. I know I haven't updated in such a long time, but I've been going through a bit of a mental health crisis, and I just didn't have the time or energy to put into this story. I'm feeling better now and I'm going to get back into writing the story. This chapter is super short, I know, but I've got a lot of free time, so expect a few more chapters to be put out in the next few days!

Bye for now!

Sincerely, 

a very apologetic CarrieKN.
