The first few months following the transplant they remained at the manor. Harry was able to have company and as the time went on be hands on with his twins. It had been rough for him being away from them so much, and part of him worried they wouldn't know him. It was unfounded concerns, the twins knew their daddy when he held them, his son especially. He was a bit jealous of his own husband, Rosie was already a Papa's girl, and Draco had the magic touch. Watching his husband with her Harry knew the feelings were returned. Draco loved both of his sons more then life, but his little princess had him wrapped around her pinkie finger. It seemed both Malfoy men in fact, as Grandpa Lucius was no better. Little Alex was such a sweet tempered baby, he smiled and cooed for almost any one, but he was quite fond of Teddy. Teddy was a doting big brother, he took it to heart when told he needed to help with the twins, when Daddy was sick. Draco told his husband he often found Teddy in the nursery talking to the twins, telling them stories. He told them all about Daddy, as well as their house, and more.
It was in March when Harry got an early Easter gift, well his entire family. He had been allowed out of bed more and more, and he was told they could move home. Lucius was sad to see them go, but Draco laughed, he had no doubt his dad would come almost every day. Harry would still need some help, especially since Draco had eased back into work. They had all known though how much going home meant to Harry, he had worried the day would never come. For now Andromeda and Ted would use the room Hermione called the in law suite, to help out.
Harry was amazed when they were getting off the bus. "I never thought this day would come."
Draco who had Rosie in his arms kissed him. "I told you that you just needed to have faith."
Harry looked at his three kids. "I know. I know I will see these three grow up."
Lucius motioned to the house. "Well it is time to see where you will raise them."
Harry smiled. "I have been waiting forever it seems to see the nursery you made."
Lucius had worked hard on it, and had wanted to make it perfect. The nursery at the manor was beautiful but nothing like this he swore. He had turned Teddy's room in the manor into a pirate room, he was old enough to know, so he would feel at home. He hadn't told Teddy or his daddies, but no one was surprised he had redone Teddy's room again. He would have pirates at the manor, but he wanted to make today special for them all. Teddy was in Lucius' arms but he had Liquorice as well. He would be getting a puppy eventually, he had proven he could take good care of his kneezle, but not till Daddy was feeling a bit better. Teddy was content any ways with his cat who he loved, and with the babies, but they knew he would ask again.
Harry walked into the house, smiling in relief to be home, and he knew for good. He knew ever since Christmas he was going to beat this. It would be two seasons before he could consider quidditch, but he planned to continue his novels, and was thinking a kids' book.
Draco led him up to the second floor. "Just in time to put them down for a nap."
Lucius opened the door. "I hope this is everything you two wanted. Especially after all this."
Harry was prepared for anything he thought but was shocked. "Lucius this is too much."
Lucius laughed. "Haven't you realized by now there is no such thing to me?"
Draco looked around. "I agree with Harry, even for you this is amazing."
The room was beautiful with a large bay window with window seat, framed by shelves and armwas on either side. They were filled with books and toys, items from the baby shower. The three remaining walls had bead board along the bottom half, and murals above. To the left of the door was the changing table, and on the wall shared with the master bedroom was a door into it, and the crib in blue. The crib in pink was across the room, and so was the beautiful massive armchair on rockers with an ottoman. The cribs were round, and each had a quilt from Molly. There was a rocking unicorn next to Rosie's and a hippogriff next to Alex's, and beautiful toy boxes for now under the crib. They had an extra bedroom which Rosie would move into when older, but for now the twins were together.
Though the mobiles were quidditch, the murals were not. Lucius wanted a theme that would work for both a son and daughter. It was inspired by the book of muggle nursery rhymes the twins were given. There was Jack in the bean stock above Alex's bed, and Little Bo peep above Rosie's. There were a number of others, including Humpty Dumpty above the window, well the wall was painted above it, a plush humpty was suspended like he was falling. The lamp even looked like the cow jumping over the moon. The spell from the great hall at school was on the roof here.
Harry put his little boy down in his crib for a nap. "Where you belong little Prince."
Draco did the same with Rosie. "And where they will stay."
Lucius led them out. "There is a bit of a lunch waiting out back."
Teddy tugged on him first. "Daddy you have to come see my new room first."
Harry laughed. "The others will have to wait."
Teddy's room had not changed a lot but for the theme, the set up in fact was close to the twins. He of course had a big boy bed and a desk instead of a change table. No longer pirates, the murals looked like a zoo. There was a monkey cage near his bed and a real tire swing next to it like the monkeys in the mural were on. His pillows and bedding were all monkey like. There were some lions, penguins, elephants, a giraffe and more. The toy box looked like an aquarium with a whale, a dorsal fin even came out of the top and moved about, but a spell of course. Harry was happy Lucius did this room too, his son was so happy. They eventually did join the others out back.
Harry smiled when he saw them all. "Thank you for being here for all of us."
That summer Harry returned once again to the hospital. He had been having check ups but he had no set backs at all. He was going in for his scan, he would for years to come. His little dragon came with him, though for once he didn't need to cling to it, he had hope. He simply had become so accustomed to the little dragon, it would have seemed odd not to take it with him. It was the first gift Harry had ever got from his husband, back before they even began dating. Draco had been sick with the flu, and felt bad Harry would be alone, he hadn't told any one yet. He had sent Harry the dragon, which was the one he faced back in fourth year, and ice cream. The dragon still sat in his own arm chair in their bedroom, he had more memories then simple scans.
As always he only had two people with him, his husband and George. The entire family was at the Burrow including their three kids, to have lunch when they got back. Their friends and their families would be there as well, it had become a tradition they would continue. The family grew every year, not just the twins, and were happy it had not shrunk by one.
Harry looked at his healer when the hour was up. "Tell me."
The man smiled. "You are back in remission Harry."
George was relieved. "I knew you would beat it. I mean you now have even more Gryffindor."
Draco smiled. "I never thought to be so happy for Gryffindor stubbornness."
As always Harry was reminded he would have to come back next year. This time though he was not filled with the same dread he usually was. He knew very few people with cancer were lucky, and got to go on and live full lives, but he knew he would. He knew deep down he would return to quidditch one day, and he would see his kids grow up. For once in his life he knew he would have it all, and that he would finally be able to be truly happy.
Back at the Burrow everyone was waiting for them. They were all hoping for good news, and like Harry they had all been hopeful. He had been getting better, he would soon be running after his kids, and they just needed the words.
Harry smiled as he kissed all three kids. "Clean."
Molly let out a breath. "We knew you would."
Harry laughed. "You tell me that every time."
Molly hugged him."And I have been right every time. I know my sons."
Oliver came over. "It seems you and Katie will be able to make a come back together."
Harry was stunned, and turned to Katie, who nodded with a massive smile. Katie and Oliver told him they planned to start trying for a baby, when the season was over. It had ended in April, and it turns out she was due in March. It meant she was out for next season, and if Harry had the all clear, he could return with her. Well if there was an opening for him on the team. The couple told him before the transplant, Harry inspired them, reminded them time could be short.
Oliver smirked. "I heard rumours a certain blonde was looking into buying our team."
