36. Presents

"Mum, Dad wake up!! IT'S CHRISTMAS!!" James Potter barged into his parent's room and jumped up onto their bed.

Harry groaned as he moved his face to burrow in his pillow in a vain aim to block out the noise his eldest son was making.

"James what time is it?" Ginny muttered opening her eyes to see James jumping up and down on the bed. "Stop! Santa can always come back and take presents away!" Ginny threatened as James immediately stopped jumping up and down on the bed.

"No! I behave" James promised as he sat on the edge of the bed behaving like an angel.

Laughing Harry opened his eyes "I believe that when I see that James" He then turned to the alarm clock on the bedside table. "It's 5 o' clock James!"

"Yeah I know, but I went up to go the toilet and I saw the milk had been drunk, the cookies have also gone as well! I couldn't see any carrots so I think the reindeer has had them!" James recited jumping slightly still sitting down.

"James" Harry started to tell his 4 year old son when he heard his 2 year old son whimpering "Santa's come?"

"No chance of going back to bed Harry we might as well just get up" Ginny told her husband as she got up to get her housecoat from the banister.

Cursing his son's bladder control Harry followed his wife out the room "Come on James, present time!"

"Yay!" James leapt out of the bed and followed his mother out to his brother's room.

Albus was standing up and started to whimper when he saw his mother and held his hands out for him to be picked up.

Ginny smiled and picked him up straight away and with one hand put his housecoat on. "You ready to see what's Santa's has given you Al?" Ginny cooed.

Albus nodded and started to suck his thumb.

Taking that as a sign Ginny then took one of the muggle dummies Hermione had given them.

Albus happily started to suck on his dummy with a satisfied expression on his face. Shaking her head Ginny went out of his nursery and met her husband outside who had also picked James up and dressed him in his dressing gown.

"You ready to go?" Harry asked

"Yeah!" James replied wiggling a bit for how excited he was.

Descending down the stairs the boys started to get even more excited.

"Has Santa come?" Ginny asked

"Yeah!" James replied pointed to the plate which was now empty except from a couple crumbs on it.

Harry gently put James down and he ran through the doors that led into the living room.

"1, 2, 3" Harry counted.

"WOW!"

Harry and Ginny laughed as they went into the living room which was now rimmed with presents and Christmas decorations.

"It wasn't like this yesterday!" James laughed as he started to spin around on the spot.

"Because Santa's has been here James!" Harry laughed as he captured James and picked him up and started to spin around with him.

"Daddy! Put me down!" James laughed and ran to the Christmas tree the Potter family had decorated a couple of weeks ago which was now over rammed with presents.

Ginny followed and sat down next to her son and kept Albus on her lap who was staring at the tree hypnotised. She turned around when she saw that Harry wasn't with her.

"Harry?"

Harry shook himself out of his stupor and joined his family at the tree. "Who's ready to open some presents now then?" Harry asked and watched in amusement as his eldest son jumped to one of the biggest presents with his name on it.

Ripping the paper James saw what it was.

"COOL! It's just like yours dad!" James relieved his brand new broom -a firebolt.

"Yes, which you can only go on if you are with your father or me" Ginny replied "Merry Christmas sweetie" as James gave a huge hug to her and Harry.

"Thank you! Thank you!" James squealed as he turned to the rest of the presents under the tree.

The Potter's living room was filled with discarded boxes and wrapping paper. With the two youngest Potter's playing with their gifts, James spotted one last present, grabbing it, he saw that it was for his dad from his mom – but hasn't his mummy just given his daddy his present? He just saw his father's reaction when he opened the present, confused he stood and took it over to his father who was sitting on the sofa with his mom laughing while Albus chased his new train along the carpet.

"Daddy?" James being too young to understand didn't notice his mother's change of expression.

"What is it Jamie?" Harry asked

"This present for you!" James asked and gave him before joining his brother in chasing the train.

Looking who it was from Harry looked at Ginny.

"Ginny?"

"Open it"

Tearing the paper what felt out was two pink booties.

"Ginny?" Harry asked confused

"Ready for that girl, Potter?"

"Really?" Harry whispered, Ginny nodded then started to laugh when Harry kissed her passionately.

"Thank you" As he broke for air.

"You helped" Ginny replied as she softly kissed him again

"EW! MUM, DAD!" James complained

"James, Albus? You ready to have a sister?" Harry asked for both of his sons to nod enthusiastically.
