The family of five was walking on the streets and looking around the shops. They already bought Rupert the uniform and books, and pretty much everything else he needed. By that time, Rupert was already exhausted hungry, and he was whining to go home and eat for the past hour.

"Can we pleeeease go home and eat?"

"No. Rupert, for the hundredth time, we still need to get your brothers their wands, and then we go home."

Rupert frowned, and the two twins bounced of excitement.

"Rupert, you might wanna turn that frown upside down."

"Sorry."

"No no, I mean look there." Harry pointed at an ombré boy with hazel eyes, walking beside Lucas, with Oliver by his other side. They were laughing over some dad and son stuff, until the boy turned and spotted Rupert. Hazel met blue and a smile spread on both their faces.

"Hey Rupie." Kayden walked up to his boyfriend, giving him a big hug after being apart for the whole summer.

"Hi Kay. Missed you." Rupert planted a soft kiss on his cheek, but then shamefully looked into his papa's eyes. He pulled away from the hold, and wrapped an arm around Kayden, facing his fathers.

"Dad, papa, this is... Kayden, my boyfriend."

"Pleasure." Draco reached out a welcoming hand and Kayden shook it delightfully. Harry simply winked at him, a wide proud smile on his face. He still couldn't believe it. His son was in love with his own coach from his own first days at Hogwarts.

Oliver and Lucas walked up to the others, and it was Kayden's turn to introduce.

"Oh. Kayden, is that your boyfriend?" Lucas put a hand on his son's shoulder, reaching his other hand to Harry.

"Yeah. This is Rupert, my beloved boyfriend."

"Yeah. You've been blowing up our heads with stories about you and him the entire summer." Oliver mentioned, making the two young lovers blush hard.

"Wow. Too bad we didn't get the pleasure to hear the same from Rupert." Draco grumbled.

"What do you mean?" Lucas looked at Rupert in surprise.

"Well, I only happened to tell them today. Sorry babe." Rupert looked with shame in Kayden's eyes full of disbelief.

"What? You promised me you would tell your parents about everything!"

"Well, I did didn't I? I'm sorry. Maybe you should consider that we have different family conditions?"

"Eghem." Draco cleared hid throat warningly.

"Sorry papa! But I'm not lying am I?"

Draco rolled his eyes and started up a conversation with Kayden's parents and his own husband. The boys knew that when adults started talking in a group, it was going to be long. So they still had about half an hour to spare.

The two twins were already busy building a house out of sticks by the lawn and that meant Rupert and Kayden had some time to spend together.

"Kay I'm sorry I didn't hold my promise and stuff, but I really couldn't tell them before. A couple of weeks ago, papa told me that I am not allowed to get a boyfriend until I'm sixteen. When today he found out I had you, he got really mad. He shouted at me and dad, and the whole house was under the stress aura again. I disobeyed him, and you know how strict he is."

"Yea. Sorry I'm mad, I really shouldn't be. Now. Since our dads are talking, should we maybe go look around the stores or something?"

"Maybe. Should we go get a snack? I haven't had breakfast because of the fight with parents and I'm starving!"

"Sure, sorry for you. Let's go." Kayden kissed Rupert on the cheek and the two started walking around stores and stuff.

The two returned back to where their parents stood, having had had a good time together. They were still talking, and the two twins were pulling at Draco's and Harry's sleeves, trying to talk them into going on.

The adults finally decided to keep going and the whole company started sorting ways, since they had to go separate directions.

"Well Rupie, see you at the platform, I guess?" Kayden gave Rupert a hug and a simple peck on the cheek. The two didn't dare kiss on the lips yet.

"Yeah. Hope to see you again as soon as possible." Rupert kissed him back, and the two left with their parents.

"Where did you and Kayden go? You didn't tell us you left." Harry asked.

"Sorry dad, we just went around the shops to see stuff and got a snack."

"So you're not hungry anymore?" Draco asked hopefully, having got sick of listening to Rupert's whines.

"Nah." Rupert shrugged and started a conversation with Scorpius about something.

When they reached the wand shop, it took forever to find the twins matching wands. Harry had a powerful wand, and Draco had an average. The two twins both related to Harry, but Draco at the same time. They were also very similar but different. Eventually, the wand dealer had to specially make them two twin wands that were made of the same twig.

The two boys kept pestering their parents to be allowed to hold their wands throughout the rest of the day, but they put them away and said that they would be allowed to hold them only at home.

Rupert was relieved that they were finally heading home, but then his frown returned as one of the twins asked "dad, can we get a pet?"

They were already at the exits, and the pet store was on the other end at the entrances. The worst thing was that the parents allowed and they started walking all the way back to the pet store.

"Please, can we go home?"

"No, we are going to get boys their pets."

"Why?"

"Well, why not? We can also get you one."

"Fine. Can I get a snake? I mean, I can speak parcel tongue. At least I will be able to talk to my pet."

"Sure. But not a venomous one."

"Why?"

"Why do you need a venomous one?"

"I don't know. Because it's cool?"

"And dangerous."

"Oh, come on! I'm thirteen already!"

"Yeah. And you have two younger brothers that are very peculiar and nosy, so before you know it you might be paying them daily visits to the hospital wing."

"Fine, you're right. Just a little venom?"

"Rupert, you can't control the amount of venom in the snake! It's a snake for merlin's sake! A real animal, with it's own breed and content. And, the snake is not allowed to be any longer than your arm."

"Fine." Rupert didn't really care at that point. Too many rules! He was also bummed out that he had to leave Kayden so soon, and he was still tired of walking around.
