I own nothing of the Fosters and Harry Potter. I am just lucky that this idea came to me
"Kids, hurry up! It's time to get up!" Stephanie Adams Foster called upstairs. Being a mother of five for a while now she knew of the arduous task of getting them up in the morning.
"Morning honey." Steph's wife Lena said walking down the steps. "Don't you look all fancy in that muggle uniform?"
"Can it honey, you know the muggles need magical help protecting themselves now-a-days." Steph said to Lena as she leaned in to kiss the love of her live. Lena was the Acting Principal at Anchor Beach. The position needed to be filled and until a replacement was found, Lena was in charge. She didn't mind working a muggle job either. It paid the bills and she was a muggle relations officer in the Ministry of Magic.
"Kids come on, don't make me come up there!" Steph shouted at the teens. "Anyways, you know today we have to look inconspicuous. How else do you expect me to get four teenagers and a pre-teen across the Atlantic and back all in one day?"
"Well, I mean we could always move to London." Lena said dreamily gazing outside at a tree that was budding with pink apple blossoms.
"You know why we can't do that love, we don't have the money and with us just happening across four other magical children, we need all the money we can get. KIDS DO NOT MAKE ME COME UP THERE!" Steph bellowed at the stairs, drawing out her wand.
"Steph, don't you think that's over doing it a bit?" Lena asked her wife as she started marching up the stairs.
"Love I gave them fair warning and now they're going to pay." Steph said as Jude Adams Foster walked down the steps. "Morning Love." Steph said to the youngest of the Adams Fosters.
"Morning Mom." Jude said with an extra big smile on his face.
"You look awfully happy today Jude." Lena said with a knowing smile on her face as the youngest went to the table and the wife went upstairs.
"Callie and Marianna are in the bathroom!" Jude called up the steps before grabbing a bowl of cereal and a banana. "Today we get to go to Diagon Alley, and I get my wand!" Jude said excitedly as a shout came from Jesus's room.
"I told you to get up!" Steph hollered as Brandon ran from his room to avoid the same fate that his brother had.
"We never get to sleep in." Brandon complained as he walked over to the refrigerator and got out the apple juice.
"Honey, you can sleep tonight after you go to Diagon Alley." Lena said with a smile.
"Can you come with us momma?" Jude asked Lena with a pleading look on his face.
"Honey I wish I could, but I can't take today off." Lena said giving Jude a hug. "I have to work until they find a new acting principal."
"Or until they make you the new principal." Marianna said digging into her peanut butter toast.
"Let's not get our hopes up." Lena said as a soaking wet Jesus walked down the stairs. "Morning sleepy head."
"You know, pouring water on someone with the Aguamenti charm while they're laying down is torture." Jesus said angrily.
"I gave you fair warning kiddo!" Steph said laughing as she came down the steps. "Now go get changed. We have to fly across the Atlantic today and someone needs to make a stop at Olivanders" Steph said with a smile.
"I don't get what the big deal is." Jesus said "He got his letter, big deal."
"Ummmmm excuse me, but I remember when I got my letter and you were devastated that you couldn't go yet." Brandon said, smacking Jesus gently behind the head.
"Yeah, and when moms handed my letter to me and yours was hidden from you." Steph and Lena exchanged mischievous glances as Marianna recounted the twins getting their letters.
"Jesus darling, please be nice." Steph said as she waved her wand and Jesus's clothes were dried instantly. "Brandon and Callie, you need to bring your booklist, Jesus and Marianna you need yours for the weird books that are always changing and Jude sweetie." Steph said.
"Jude will get to start his spell book this year." Callie said with a smile. The spell book was a tradition that Steph's family had started when she attended Hogwarts. She copied down spells that she thought were useful or she created and stored them in her personal spell book. Each spell book was protected by an enchantment to where only the creator of the book could open it.
"Can momma be there for that?" Jude said hopefully looking at Lena.
"I think if mom pushes it back to the last think I can apparate in." Which was met by a groan with Jesus.
"Jesus Adams Foster, you will behave or you can stay home and Marianna can pick out everything for you." Steph said angrily.
"Yeah, and it'll be hot pink with unicorns on it." Marianna said defending Jude.
"It's fine, don't make a fuss over me." Jude said scared, memories of previous foster homes floating up into his mind.
"Love, you picking out your spell book is a rite of passage in this family, and if you want both momma and I to be there then it will happen and there will be no complaining from anyone." Steph said, putting emphasis on the last part.
"Fine, can we get going?" Jesus said, sauntering over to the door and walking to the car. The other kids looked apologetically at Jude and Callie went over and hugged her little brother and told him to ignore Jesus. She walked out and Jude was left alone with his moms.
"You ready babe?" Steph asked getting the keys to the car.
"Yeah, but I had a question for you, and I didn't want to ask in front of Jesus." Jude asked quietly.
"What is it love?" Lena asked kindly.
"Well, I have birthday money saved up and I was wondering if I could buy a cat." Jude said with a smile on his face. "We have a family owl that I can use, and I want a pet of my own."
"I think we could do that babe." Steph said with a smile on her face. "Just as long as we don't end up taking care of it." As Steph said it, she knew that Jude was the least likely to abuse or neglect a cat but she said it because of her maternal instincts.
"I promise mom." Jude said with a smile and gave both of his moms' hugs.
"Go get in the car Jude and I'll be out in a second." Steph said as Jude was walking to the door already.
"Do you think he'll be o.k.?" Lena asked as Jude shut the door behind him.
"He's a tough kid. And I think getting him the cat will help him too. He'll have someone besides his siblings to occupy him and with there being almost no chance of him and Jesus being in the same house together, there won't be as much harassment as there is at home." Steph said reassuringly kissing Lena on the cheek goodbye.
"Bye love." Lena said as she got ready to go to work.
"See you later babe." Steph said as she went to the car, wand out and tapping the engine to give it back the ability to fly. Ever since Arthur Weasley charmed a car to life and it went rouge, Steph had been careful to undo her spells on the car.
"Ready kids?" Steph said as she tapped her invisibility booster on the dash, making the car become invisible and drove out of the garage accelerating until they were in the sky, flying to Diagon Alley.
