Draco slowly opened his eyes, a yawn escaping his lips and a quick look at the clock told him it was eight thirty in the morning. He smiled edging himself closer to Sofia, as he remembered neither of them had to work this Sunday. Outside, the rain was falling, lighting striking and thunder rolling, but the thick curtains Sofia had insisted on buying when they first moved in kept the lightning from bothering them too much.

Looking down at his wife, who was curled on her side with both hands under her face, he placed an arm over her fitting his body against hers. After all these years together, he could still watch her sleep without growing bored and he was certain this would never change.

Good morning beautiful, how was your night? he thought, Mine was wonderful with you by my side and when I open my eyes and see your sweet face, it's a good morning beautiful day. I couldn't see the light, I didn't know day from night, I had no reason to care, but since you came along I can face the dawn, cause I know you'll be there. I'll never worry if it's raining outside 'cause in here with you girl, the sun always shines*.

Leaning over his wife's shoulder, he gently kissed her lips. She quivered, her green eyes slowly fluttering open and meeting his gray ones.

"Good morning Ms. Malfoy" He said, kissing her lips again.

"Good morning" Yawn "Mister Malfoy. What are you doing up so early?"

"No idea, just couldn't go back to sleep"

"I guess we won't go swimming today, after piano lessons" Sofia said after a while, as they could hear the rain falling hard.

Draco nodded. Ever since both kids had turned three, Draco began to teach them how to play the piano and Roxanne had inherited her dad's talent, while Scorpius was good at it but struggled some. On the other hand, he was far more interested in potions making than Roxanne and he would sit in Sofia's study with her, watching as she worked, whenever he had the chance. One passion both had in common was their love for quidditch, and they seemed to have inherited Draco's competitiveness as well.

"Maybe we can take them to see my parents, since we visited yours last weekend" Draco said, in between kissing Sofia's neck "and we could leave them there, for the day…"

"I would like that" Sofia said, a chill running down her spine "Shall I ask one of our elves to owl your moth"

Sofia and Draco both sat up and Barkley's head shot up as they heard a particular loud thunder, followed by Roxanne's cry coming from the hallway. They were about to get up when the door to their room opened and Roxanne came in. She ran to their bed, slowing down long enough to climb over Barkley and throw herself in Sofia's arms, her lustrous shoulder length black hair hiding her face.

"Roxy, what's wrong? Are you hurt?" Sofia asked, looking down at her daughter.

Roxanne didn't say anything, but buried her face even deeper into Sofia's chest and began to cry. Sofia wrapped her arms protectively around her daughter and began to rock back and forth, whispering soothing words while Barkley rested his head on Sofia's legs, facing Roxanne.

"Scorpius Hyperion Malfoy" Draco said in an icy tone "What did you do to your sister?"

Sofia looked up and followed Draco's gaze. Her eyes landed on her son, who was standing just outside their bedroom, his face a combination of annoyance, apprehension and fright. She knew, as did Draco, that he had done something wrong by the way he was standing, almost diminished from his usual self. But even so, his height still showed. Sometimes it was hard to believe he was almost nine, and so grown.

"I was just playing with Roxy" He said, finally coming in and putting on a brave face "She didn't have to be so silly"

"What exactly were you playing?" Draco asked.

"I was trying to scare her, because she is afraid of thunders… which is so senseless" he said, rolling his eyes.

Sofia held back at smile, Scorpius really was his father's son.

"Come here and apologize to your sister" Draco said "And do not upset her like that again"

"I'm sorry Roxy" Scorpius said, looking, at the back of her head as she was still crying into Sofia's chest. "I won't do it again… will you forgive me?"

They all waited in silence. Sluggishly, Roxanne lifted her head, wiped away her tears and turned to face her brother.

"Okay" She said, before hiding her face again at the sound of another thunder.

"Listen Roxy, there isn't anything to fear about thunders, it is just a noise" Scorpius said, climbing in bed and sitting between Draco and Sofia.

"But it's so loud" She said, turning to face her brother.

"I won't let it hurt you, okay?"

"Promise?"

Sofia and Draco exchanged a look before smiling, Roxanne sounded a lot like her mother right now.

"I promise" Scorpius said "I'm your big brother, remember?"

Roxanne shook her head and smiled at him.

"Now that mum and dad are up, can we go eat?" Scorp asked, already getting up.

"Take your sister down, we will be right there" Draco said, as he and Sofia got up as well.

After the kids left, followed closely by Barkley, Draco used his wand to close the door. Walking to Sofia's side of the bed, he wrapped her in his arms and kissed her.

"If I haven't told you this lately, thank you" He said, resting his forehead on hers and looking deep into her eyes.

"For what?"

"You, them… our family"

"You are welcome, my love"

"I'm so lucky to have you all in my life, and I love it! Every moment of it"

"Even moments like we just had?"

"Especially moments like we just had"

"Will you ever stop being such a charmer, Draco Malfoy?"

"Never" He said, displaying his best smirk

"Good, I wouldn't want you to"

With a smile, Draco kissed her one last time before reaching for her hand. Together, they left the room and had barely reached the top of the stairs when they were met by the sounds coming from the kitchen. Scorp and Roxy could be heard arguing, Barkley was barking and the two house elves were trying to reestablish some order.

Sofia and Draco were both only an only child, and therefore would never be able to comprehend the bond between a brother and sister but one thing was beyond obvious, their kids aggravated each other the way they did because of how much they loved each other. Thankfully, they were very well behaved and got along nicely the majority of the time, or Sofia and Draco would have lost their minds already.

Looking at each other, Sofia and Draco shared a smile and, hand in hand, began descending the stairs eager to join the chaos that made their lives worth living.
