It was a little after two in the afternoon when Remus came out of the back rooms to hand Sirius his muggle cell phone that was ringing off the hook.

"Here, Si. It's been bloody ringing all morning."

He said as Sirius reluctantly balanced the phone between his head and his shoulder while he continued to ring up the customer that he was currently working with at the register.

"Hello? Yes I'm here. Severus. What is it? It's been ages since you've called. How have you been? Yeah? Oh good. I'm glad. What? You've got news? What kind of news? Oh that kind of news. Well what is it? Come on Sev. You know you can trust me."

It was then that Sirius's face turned a ghostly shade of white and the phone fell from his hands and clattered to the pristine tile floor.

Remus caught sight of Sirius's expression and hurried over to pick the phone up.

"Hello? Oh hello, Sev. How are you? What?! What do you mean he's alive?! The boy can't be alive. He was killed that night along with James and Lily! No? He wasn't? Well where the bloody hell has he been all these years?! Petunia?! Oh for fuck's sake, Severus you can't be serious…Well tell Albus that we'll come pick him up as soon as possible. Just get him to somewhere safe, alright. Yeah. We'll be seeing you soon. Alright. Good day, Severus."

He said as he hung up and placed the phone on the counter in front of a still shaken up Sirius.

Remus smiled apologetically to the witch that he was currently ringing up and gently moved Sirius to the side so he could finish with the customer.

As soon as the witch left, Remus hurried over to the front door of the boutique and flipped the open sign so it now read closed and then went to go about fixing Sirius a hot cup of tea.

As Remus busied himself with the tea kettle in the back room, his mind whirred to life about the news that they had just heard.

Sirius and Remus had been best friends with James Potter ever since the day they had all met on the train in their first year at Hogwarts.

They had been very close, all of them together.

And when James married Lily, they got even closer seeing as how Remus and Sirius had just started dating as well.

It was then, on a tragic night that James and Lily's young lives were cut short when Voldemort killed them within their family home.

Ever since that night, it had been said that their young newborn son, Harry Potter had been killed alongside his parents and the entire wizarding community had mourned the loss of the entire Potter household.

But now, Severus had just called them to let them know that Harry Potter had been located and was indeed very much alive and well

. Or as well as he could be seeing as how he had been picked up by Lily's horrifying older sister Petunia and her awful family of muggles.

Remus pursed his lips in distaste as he waited for the tea kettle to heat up.

Petunia was a rotten woman. Lily always was the better of the two.

How on earth Harry had survived that night was beyond him.

And how he had been kept hidden for nearly all his life was also a mystery that Remus was determined to solve.

He was drawn out of his thoughts when he heard the front door of the boutique open and then close seconds after that signaling that Draco had arrived home a bit earlier than usual.

Remus knew that Sirius looked like a hot mess so he made his way quickly to the front of the boutique where Draco was staring at Sirius with a look of pure horror.

Sirius looked like death as he sat on the stool behind the counter and had his head hung low in shame.

Remus knew that Sirius took James and Lily's death extremely personally because he was on the Order team that was supposed to prevent any attacks happening that night.

But unfortunately, the attack on the Potter's hadn't been known until it had happened leaving everyone stunned in it's terrifying wake.

Remus quickly stepped out from behind the counter and blocked Draco's view of his other father and gave the boy a hesitant smile.

"Welcome home, Drake dear. Papa is having a rather rough afternoon. We've just found out some news about an old friend of ours that we weren't expecting. Everything is alright. There's no need to be worried or upset."

Remus said gently as he moved to sooth his young son. Draco's eyes were still wide and he had a dazed expression that masked his delicate features.

His grey eyes lacked the luster that they usually held and Remus knew that he was having a panic attack.

Draco had been having panic attacks and struggled with anxiety ever since the night his parents were murdered right in front of him.

He was barely a toddler that night but he seemed to remember every detail quite vividly.

Remus shot a disapproving look over his shoulder at Sirius who had yet to snap out of his own reverie before he turned and slowly made his way over to where Draco stood stock still in pure terror.

"It's alright, love. Don't you worry about a thing. Daddy and Papa will take care of everything, alright? Everything will be just fine."

He said gently to the boy who blinked a few times before nodding slowly and hanging his head in embarrassment.

"Sorry, Daddy. I didn't mean to have another one."

He mumbled under his breath making Remus's heart break in two for the sweet boy.

"Oh it's alright, Drake. There's nothing to be upset about. Papa and Daddy will take care of it all. You just focus on getting yourself ready for your time at school and managing the shop. Have you had a chance to look over the selection of potential part time employees that Papa had put together? We need to know your top three picks by this Friday, okay love? Now how about some supper? Why don't you use the floo in our office to head home for the night and get started on making some supper for us all? You love to cook, yeah? Well, we'll start using those skills more often then."

Remus said as Draco finally looked up and nodded with a small smile.

"Thanks Daddy. Look after Papa will you? What time do you suppose you'll be home?"

He asked as he looked between his two fathers.

Remus shrugged and gave him a small smile of his own.

"I doubt we'll be home anytime soon. Just put the food in the fridge and we'll have it once we get home alright?"

He said as Draco nodded in agreement before gently wrapping his arms around Remus's waist and giving him a loving hug.

"See you soon."

He said before he walked behind the counter and placed a sweet kiss on Sirius's cheek making the man finally snap out of whatever God awful nightmare he had made up in his mind.

"Give me a hug, Drakey dear. Remember to feed Violet and Moosie when you get home."

Sirius reminded him as he nodded and gave the man a hug before leaving to head to their office in the very back of the building.

As soon as he disappeared into the back rooms, Remus sighed in relief and wrapped his arms around Sirius who leaned his head into his lover's gentle embrace.

"Oh Remy, what are we going to do? The boy doesn't know anything about us, our world or what dangers lie in wait for him merely because of his name…"

Remus nodded and placed a sweet kiss onto Sirius's mop of black scraggly hair before giving him a tight squeeze.

"We'll do whatever we have to. To keep our boys safe."

He said simply as both were left for the thought to sink in. Not only would they have one son now, but now they would have two.

The realization was startling if not frightening at its best.

And the fact that their lives were about to change for better or for worse, made them cling tightly to each other and their small family that they could call their own.
