"Why can I not stay with papa? He's found his old broom!"

"That all well and nice, but you have a bedroom to pack and I know I'll simply do wrong and not to your tastes. And you are to say goodbye to your cousins until Salem. No arguments, it's less than twenty-four hours and we have a final dinner and a lot of packing." The lad pouted, but he hadn't looked to his father for aid. Instead he ate his breakfast silently for a few moments before sparking a conversation once again.

It was odd—Or it wasn't extremely odd, but when Ronan was the only child, he was much more talkative. He was indeed the middle child out of the five.

Aurora and Ronan were simply waiting on both Avery and McNair to come to stay overnight, yet that didn't stop Rabastan and Ronan from starting another game of cards while they waited.

"Good god!" Avery cheered, and it caused Aurora to overlook the newcomers just over her glasses. The wizard looked just as shocked as McNair as they stared the much too similar father and son.

"Ronan, mind yourself that is not how you introduce yourself to someone new." She spoke, and that caused the young lad to rise up from his seat to greet the new guests.

"Hello, my name is Ronan Lestrange." He spoke rather proudly, holding out his hand to greet the newcomers. And Avery took that as a sign of good faith as he shook the boy's hand.

"My apologies little Lestrange, Avery."

"Ronan, it's nice to meet you son. I'm McNair." Ronan continued to shake the second wizard's hand before grinning wildly at them.

"You're my father's best mates?"

"Sure are...And this is from your godmother." The way Avery smile had risen almost seemed genuine in Aurora's eyes. Almost.

Surely the strain between the two parents has lessened now that Noah is indeed an Avery child. "Er, who's my godmother?"
"That'd be my wife, Amelia Avery. Though Rory likes to call her Harper still." Ronan turned back to look at his mum in question, and Aurora rose up from her seat to greet either of the wizards.

"Ronan, McNair's wife Evelyn is the one who helped with all the bedrooms and commission the treehouse." The treehouse was a touchy subject as Aurora claimed that he had to wait along with the rest of his siblings to properly enjoy it, however the actual thing beside the sketch was near identical.

"Done a brilliant job with it, does Auntie Evie like flowers?" Waldon held onto Avery's shoulder as he curled over to laugh.

"Flirting with my wife already, are you lad?"
"Papa what's flirting?" Now it was Avery's turn to throw his head back.

"Yup, definitely a Lestrange boy. Hopefully you've got your mum's smarts son." Ronan looked between the four adults in a matter of question.

"My papa is smart too."

"Not with the ladies." Aurora kissed her husband's cheek and rolled her eyes at the male taunting.

"I concur on both...I should've asked Evie to babysit the lot of you." Ronan smirked as he heard his mum mumbled the last bit of the sentence and Rabastan playfully scowled.

"Aurora, we're fine." Letting out a reluctant sigh did she call upon the elf to grab their travel cloak. Rabastan had watched the small purse that Rory had been carrying—Surely that was an American made?
