Callum 3rd
Callum woke up groggy on a warm day in June of 1990. His dad Eric had just bought him the new Game Boy for his birthday and he had been playing almost all night. He got up and almost tripped over his Cleansweep 7. That was a gift from his dad Steve. Eric's gifts were usually muggle things that he loved as a kid and Steve usually got Callum magic toys.
As he walked down the stairs of their cosy house in Salisbury, Callum caught the scent of the best full English breakfast you've ever had. Eric always says it's a family recipe but everybody knows he just plopped stuff in the pan. At least it turns out nice.
Callum sits down at the dining room table and pours himself a cup of orange juice. Eric looks over at him and can tell from the bags under his eyes that he didn't get much sleep. Callum looks up apologetically and Eric returns the look with an understanding smile and a wink "Don't tell dad" mouths Eric to his youngest son. Callum tries to wink back but fails miserably.
Steve, as always, is the last to come down in the morning. He yawns, kisses Callum on the top of his head and walks over to his husband. "Hey babe," says Steve.
"Good morning sleepyhead," he responds. He gets himself a glass of pumpkin juice and sits down next to Callum.
Steve's POV
I knew something was going on between my boys when I realised how quiet it was. That was unheard of in the MacMillan household. I didn't want to pry though. I gobbled down my breakfast because I really wanted to go to the park and play quidditch. "umm, daddy? Are you okay? You seem rushed," said Callum.
"Hmm?" I said looking up with my mouth full. I swallowed and answered, "I just really want to play quidditch. And you can use your new broom!"
Callum's eyes opened up really wide in realisation. I knew that would get him going. I watched Callum run upstairs to get ready. I turned to Eric and smiled. "whaaatt?" he said smiling back.
"Noothing. I'm just really happy. Just thinking how lucky I am," I replied hugging him.
