Draco gave a quick knock on his son's door before he opened it and once again found an empty bed. This was the third attempt he made to talk to Scorpius about his night out with James and every time, Scorpius was nowhere to be found. He would even attempt first thing in the morning, but Scorpius would already be up and out of the house before Draco could get a chance.

"Hey, where's your brother?" He asked Aurora who was walking by.

"I don't know," she shrugged.

Draco let out a frustrated sigh before he closed the bedroom door and walked into Aurora's room behind her. "How's Potter?"

She laughed at his question. "I wouldn't know, he's avoiding me," she said glaring at him.

"Don't look at me like that."

"Well, you're constantly pushing him away, he probably just decided not to even bother with me any more thanks to you." she snapped, pushing past him and making her way down to breakfast.

"I haven't said anything new to him besides the usual shit. Maybe you should go... you know, go see him." Draco said.

Aurora stopped walking and looked at her father like he was crazy. "You want me to go hang out with James? Who the hell are you?" she said, shaking her head before she kept walking.

He quickly caught up with her and stopped her again. "I just mean, go check on him. He seems like he's going through some stuff and needs a friend."

She started laughing. "You are acting mental, but I would have to agree, James has been acting rather off lately. Perhaps I will go pay him a visit," she said before she turned and walked downstairs.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

"Dad, where's Mum?" Ellie asked, taking a seat at the table as she watched her father place a giant plate of french toast down on the table.

"She's not feeling well this morning so she is resting. Why? You don't trust my cooking?" he asked with a smirk.

"It's french toast, it's not that hard so I hope you've managed to make it edible." she laughed as she took two pieces.

"Ember, any idea where your brother is?" Draco asked as she entered the dining room.

She just shook her head.

"How was your date?" he asked her.

"It wasn't a date. We just hung out as friends." she snapped.

"Mmhmm, so how was your... friend... date thingy?"

She rolled her eyes. "It was fine, why? Am I forbidden to hang out with him again? Where is Mum anyway?"

"She's sick," Riley said.

"Sick?" Ember asked. "With what?"

"Never mind with what, just finish breakfast and then take your sisters to your grandparents. I need to get to work." Draco said firmly.

"Yeah, so do I," Ember said.

"Believe me, I'm sure the third floor could manage without a receptionist for a half hour while you escort your sisters to your grandparents."
