Sorry it's been so long, I really hope I haven't lost too many of you guys, but I've been so busy, you have no idea. I actually hatched some ducklings, and that take up a lot of my time, but now, I'm making time to update for you guys. :) Hope you enjoy.
The weeks flew by, September turned to October, and Halloween was approaching. As it creeped up, students became more and more accustomed to being parents. Harry and Ginny's system had been working flawlessly, and as the babies grew, so did the exhaustion o their parents. Leah had become more attached to Harry and refused to be held by anyone else, with the exception of Ginny. Being two months old, her control of her elemency was minimal, and she had nearly burned the house down several times. Taylor and Carter had yet to show signs of elemency, for which Harry and Ginny were grateful.
On Halloween night, Harry and Ginny dressed the triplets in costumes before the feast. Leah went as a bunny, Taylor went as a penguin, and Carter went as a pumpkin. They entered the great hall a little late (Leah had made a fuss about her costume), and Dumbledore had just begun his speech.
"Ah, Halloween. I notice all the parents have dressed up their children in various costumes, they all look adorable. Now, I'm sure you're all starving, and this magnificent feast looks extremely appetizing, so without further ado, let's eat!" He spread his hands in a welcoming motion, and everyone began to indulge in the various sweets and treats laid out before them.
Harry reached for his drink, a brimming cup of pumpkin juice, and took a sip. Or, so he tried. He looked in his goblet, only to see nothing there. He poured himself another cup, thinking he had been mistaken the first time. He raised his drink to his lips again, only to find nothing there. Taylor giggled, and he looked over at the baby, only to find a mass of pumpkin juice swirling around his head. Harry stared incredulously, and nudged Ginny. She looked over at Taylor, who burbled happily and clapped his hands. He then made a throwing motion behind his head, and guess where all the pumpkin juice went. Right into Professor Snape's face. Snape stood up, his greasy hair dripping, and walked over to Dumbledore. He started whispering harshly to the headmaster, and the headmaster just looked over at Harry with a twinkle and a wink.
"Harry! Help me out, here!" Ginny's urgent voice whispered in his ear. He turned around to see Carter, in all his pumpkin glory, floating just out of reach, wearing a proud smile on his face. Shouts could be heard all across the hall, people wondering what was going on. Dumbledore stood up.
"Silence. Everyone, Mr. Potter and Ms. Weasly have elemental triplets. It seems that Carter, the one floating above you, is an air, and Taylor, the child next to Mr. Potter, is a water. Ms. Leah was already determined to be a fire. Now, if you'll all calm down, we can get Mr. Potter and Ms. Wealsy's son down." He spoke in a deep, booming voice. Carter, now about fifty feet above the ground, giggled, and dropped. The baby spun in the air, holding his feet, giggling his head off. Ginny lunged, and caught the troublesome child before he hit the table. She put him in the baby carrier and strapped him in tightly. She looked at Harry.
"I think we should go." Harry nodded in agreement, and grabbed Leah's car seat. The entire great hall watched the little family exit, and wondered what would happen next.
Just like I'm sure you all are. :) I'm evil. I'll try to update again soon, so be on the look out. I hope you all enjoyed, and if you like Lily/James, I have an AU story about them, just look at my profile. Review!!!!
