Chapter One; Easter Morning

Happy Easter! Luckily I am feeling GREAT today! Better than I have in a very long time actually, so I hope you enjoy it and this is especially for everyone who decided not to read the after spoiling episodes. You guys will FINALLY find out if Aaron and Brittany have a boy or a girl!

Harry, Ron, and Hermione walked in through the front door before Snape flashed them a welcoming grin. "There you three are. Would you like to color eggs now?" he asked them.

"Uh no offense Snape, but aren't we a little too old for that?" Ron inquired.

"Yeah, and I thought that Teddy and Heather already did that." Harry told him.

"Well we could always color another dozen, and I don't think you're ever too old to color Easter eggs. The way I see it is that you're only as old as you feel." He said.

"Well thanks Dad but I've got a lot of work to get done since I'm preaching tomorrow's sermon." Harry told him.

"Oh come on Harry, you could always do that later." Hermione said. "After all, you deserve to have a little bit of fun. Besides, although it's very important to remember the true meaning of Easter, you're also hosting the Easter egg hunt tomorrow." She pointed out with a grin.

"Yeah and don't forget, we have to kick Hermione's and Ginny's ass since they're so sure that they're going to win." Ron told him but Hermione just simply rolled her eyes at him.

"How many times do I have to tell you Ronald? It's not important who wins since this is supposed to be a charity for the children's hospital. The church has been having it since Harry was a kid." She told him.

"Before I was born actually." Harry told her.

"Wow, we're certainly going to be busy within the next couple of days. After all, Easter's tomorrow and then we've got Brittany's baby shower to go to on the next day." Hermione said. "Oh I just can't wait to find out if they're going to have a boy or a girl."

"I know. You have been saying that for months." Ron told her.

"Listen, I hate to be rude and breakup this conversation but if you three want to color eggs then I suggest that you do it soon. After all, we've got to start getting ready for supper soon." Snape told them.

"He's right. Harry, do you want to join us?" Hermione asked him as he took a deep breath and sighed heavily.

"Oh alright," he began throwing his hands up into the air. "If you can't beat them, might as well join them." He said while he, Ron, and Hermione gathered around the table and sat down before Harry withdrew his wand and levitated the carton of eggs over to them.

…..

"Goodnight Bugs." Heather said before she latched the cage door behind him. That's when suddenly her father entered her bedroom.

"Alright princess, ready for bed? After all, you've got a busy day ahead of you tomorrow. First you'll wake up and you and Teddy will find your Easter baskets and all of the eggs that the Easter Bunny left for you, and then we'll go to church and after that will be the Easter egg hunt and then we'll be going over to Aunt Petunia's house for Easter dinner." He told her.

"How do you expect me to go to sleep after telling me all that?" she asked him as he chuckled at her. "I'm way too excited now!" she exclaimed.

"Because I'll tell you a secret. The sooner you get to sleep, the sooner that Easter will be here." He told her.

"Really!?" she inquired before she gave a rather loud and sleepy yawn and patted her hand on top of her lips. "In that case I think I'm getting very sleepy." She told him before he laughed again and bent down to pick her up and hoisted her up inside his arms.

"My goodness, you certainly are getting heavy. Hopefully the Easter Bunny won't leave you as much candy as he usually does." He told her before he carried her over to her bed and pulled back her covers. Then he laid her down on top of it and covered her back up before tucking her in and bending over to plant a kiss onto her forehead. "Sweet dreams princess, I love you." He told her.

"I love you too Daddy. Goodnight." She told him. This time she gave a real yawn before she rolled over and rested her head on top of her hand, closed her eyes, and went to sleep. Snape smiled at her before he turned around and turned off the light and then quietly left the room.

…

Teddy and Heather were up bright and early the next morning along with Harry, Snape, and Hermione. After much convincing Ron and Tobey got up, however Eve was the most difficult of all and she absolutely refused to wake up. "Well, that's a teenager for you." Ron said.

"But I'm a teenager and I still got up." Tobey pointed out.

"Yes I know but teenage girls generally have more of an attitude than teenage boys. Besides, this isn't any ordinary girl or even witch for that matter that we're talking about." Ron told him.

"Oh well, if Eve refuses to get up then she won't be able to have any candy this morning. I'm still going to make her eat something before we have to start getting ready for church. How many showers need to be taken anyway?" Snape wondered as Harry, Ron, and Tobey raised their hands.

"Alright so that makes four since all three of the boys have to take one and so does Eve after she gets up." He said.

"Yes and I took a shower yesterday morning so I don't need one." Hermione told him.

"And Teddy and I already had our baths last night so can we please just start looking for eggs now!?" Heather exclaimed pleadingly as Snape chuckled and grinned at her.

"Yes, you and Teddy can start. Harry Ron and Hermione can help you if you need it." He told her.

"Yay! Come on Teddy!" she cried before she waved her hand back at him and they started walking around the living room and began their search.
