The newly wedded couple and their firstborn were back at Potter Manor on May second. Their wedding had been April 30th and they had partied way into the morning of May first, making them too hungover to even think of going back. Noelle wasn't as drunk as Sirius and she still had half mind to wake up and take care of a still sleeping Orion when she had woken up. Although it seemed that even Orion was too tired from yesterdays festivities because once his mother had finished feeding him and changing him he fell asleep right away. This fact led to them staying an extra day at Cinque Terre with Noelle's family.

The goodbyes were bittersweet and Noelle cried a lot, but its safe to say that the rest of her family did as well. Even the little shit Francis cried a bit when he hugged her and told her to take care. However Noelle had made up her mind and accepted Sirius offer of having any of them come by through portkey, she was excited to see any of them in the coming months because she knew that when they got back things wouldn't be easy.

And she was completely right.

When they arrived at Potter Manor, James and Lily weren't present. They had already dropped Tobias off with James parents the day before, thinking that they would arrive later that day. Nevertheless the dog yapped and ran around their feet, excited to see his owners again. Fleamont and Euphemia welcomed the couple and asked about the trip, they were ecstatic when they learnt that they had gotten married and the couple gifted them a few pictures from the wedding. Euphemia beamed at the two and promised that the next time they came by she would have the pictures in frames and next to James and Lily's wedding pictures. 

After that they left. Apparently Fleamont and James had been on in Sirius plan of getting them a new home and, while they were away, the Potters had taken to moving their belongings to the new home. When they had apparated away from Potter Manor Noelle felt her nose tingle and she could almost taste salt in the air, but the fuzzing baby in her arms distracted her as Sirius guided the three of them. Orion disliked apparating as much as the next person so his mother, at first, didn't notice when Sirius had stopped in front of their new home.

Noelle grew confused when she felt themselves stop walking and she turned to Sirius to ask why they'd stopped when the words died in her throat. 

In front of them, on top of a small hill that overlook the beach, stood a two story house. The house was painted white and was made of wood in it entirety, the entrance had a few stairs that gave way to the front door and Noelle could tell that the back of the house gave a clear view of the beach. The first floor had four windows, two next to either side of the door that was placed in the middle and the second floor seemed to have one big triangular window above the front door. Sirius had taken one of Noelle's hands and was gently pulling her towards the house as she stared in amazement at the house. Orion too was curious as to what had caught his mother's attention and was staring at the house in front of him with a hand shoved into his mouth.

Noelle realized they were inside of the home when Sirius let go of her hand and turned on the light next to the front door. Immediately, light engulfed them and Noelle continued to gaze in wonder at the living room area. The couch in front of the window was a nude color and looked soft, Noelle could already see herself falling asleep there as her eyes roamed to the loveseat next to the couch, this one the same color and material as the couch. Opposite the loveseat and against the wall there was a small crib with numerous plush toys for Orion. In the middle of it there was the same coffee table they'd had in their flat and Noelle smiled. Next up was the dinning area and she realized this was the other room on the first floor with the other two windows. There was a round wooden table with four chairs and against the far wall behind the table there was the kitchen, a small bar separating the kitchen from the dinning room with three more chairs placed in front of the table.
