''Yes, but what about the Grinch he is supposed to hate Christmas and wants to ruin it for everyone else you can't tell me that this is a happy film'' he said smirking.

Matthew rolled his eyes ''Ok, so there both sad films but I have watched Home alone lots of times''

Harry chuckled ''Fine you both win the Grinch it is''

Lyra snorted ''It's already on and were already watching it uncle Harry so you have no say.''

Harry shook his head with a smile on his face at Lyra's smart arse comment he walked right into that one as if he can give them permission to watch it when they were indeed half way through it so he just kept his mouth shut and stopped pouting he was just pleased to see Hermione smiling again.

Hermione chuckled ''Come on then let's watch the rest of the Grinch, budge up'' Hermione sat on the other end of the sofa and both kids sat in the middle Matthew next to Harry and Lyra leaned up against her whilst she played with her daughters curls.

Helen smiled at her husband as they both stood watching Hermione and the kids together ''Do any of you want a drink''

''Coke please'' Matthew said not moving his eyes from the TV

''Squash please'' Lyra said next followed by her uncle

''I'll have some coke as well please'' Harry replied moments after Lyra

''And I'll have squash also'' Hermione said staring at the TV

Helen shook her head and chuckled it was amusing how both Hermione and Harry acted like children she couldn't' keep the smile off of her face she had her daughter home finally and she was alive she had been so worried when her daughter and Harry had said they would be going to war with that mad man meaning they had to go into hiding but her kids were home and safe she classed Harry as a Son since he had been around them from the age of twelve and now they were nineteen or in her daughters case Twenty due to her going back in time.

Helen pulled her husband out of the living room and down the hall to the kitchen ''You can help me carry the drinks, let them spend some time with the kids''

''Yes dear'' Richard said following his wife smiling ''It's great having them home isn't it''

Helen smiled ''Yes it is, and I know the kids are very happy, although I think Hermione has something she is going to spring on us at some point''

Richard chuckled ''You think that as well then''

''Yes something about her excitement and Matthews comment earlier''

''Oh what did he say''

''Well he said he was going to ask Santa or Lyra to get better and for his mum to get a house so they can live together. Now he has never mentioned that before and Harry was the one who took him to school and she pulled him out of that awful school''

''Hmm perhaps it would be nice to have the house empty again and she deserves to have the kids with her constantly we know first hand how it killed her being away from them''

''Yes it will be a lovely thing and the kids will be so happy'' Helen smiled as she walked into the kitchen and pulled down two glasses and one plastic spider man cup and one Princess cup for the kids ''Can you get the pop from the fridge please love''

Richard nodded and walked over to the fridge he pulled out a bottle of coca cola and handed it to his wife he watched her as she did the squash first handing it to him to put in the cupboard which he did before she poured a cup and glass of coke each ''Give me that and I'll put it back''

''Oh thanks dear'' Helen said smiling she turned back and picked up the two squashes and handed them to Richard ''You take the girls drinks and I'll take the boys drinks''

Helen followed her husband out of the kitchen and back to the living room. when she heard Matthew sing she smiled it was like being taken back in time she remembered they would sing it every time when the film was on so she and Richard stood by the door listening.

You're a mean one, Mr Grinch,
You really are a heel.
You're as cuddly as a cactus,
You're as charming as an eel,
Mr Grinch.
You're a bad banana with a greasy black peel.

You're a monster, Mr Grinch.
Your heart's an empty hole.
Your brain is full of spiders.
You've got garlic in your soul, Mr Grinch.
I wouldn't touch you with a
Thirty-nine and a half foot pole.

Matthew sang in perfect time with the song he looked to his sister who would continue with the next part

You're a vile one, Mr Grinch.
You have termites in your smile,
You have all the tender sweetness of a seasick crocodile,
Mr Grinch.
Given the choice between the two of you,
I'd take the seasick crocodile.

You're a foul one, Mr. Grinch.
You're a nasty wasty skunk.
Your heart is full of unwashed socks.
Your soul is full of gunk,
Mr Grinch.

Lyra continued before looking at her mother wondering if she remembered but smiled when she saw her mother smile.

Hermione smiled she could see her kids were wondering if she remembered so she waited for her part

The three best words that best describe you,
Are as follows, and i quote''
Stink!
Stank!
Stunk!

You're a rotter Mr Grinch
You're the king of sinful sots
You're hearts a dead tomato squashed with moldy purple spots
Mr Grinch

Hermione looked tapped the back of Harry's head and when he looked at her she nodded her head telling him that he was to sing next

Harry frowned for a moment but then nodded he knew his part was coming up and as he sung them he would tickle each kid.

Your sole is an appalling dump heap
Overflowing with the most disgraceful
Assortment of deplorable rubbish imaginable,
Mangled up in tangled up knots.

You nauseate me, Mr Grinch
With a noxious super nos
You're a crooked jerky jockey and,
You drive a crooked hoss
Mr Grinch!

Harry said as he continued to tickle the kids he smiled listening to them squeal, plead and laugh at him for tickling them he stopped though because he knew they all had to sing the last part then all together the four finished the song

You're a three-decker sauerkraut
And a toadstool sandwich,
With arsenic sauce!''

Helen and Richard chuckled when the song finished ''Well that was interesting''

Hermione looked at her mother and father and smiled when she saw them place the drinks on the table ''I know we sounded great didn't' we''

''I don't know about me, but you three sounded perfect'' Harry said chuckling

Richard chuckled ''You were all wonderful, now here are your drinks boys''

''Thanks Dad.''

''Yeah thanks Granddad''

Richard shook his head and headed for his chair so he could continue his paper.

Helen went and sat on the other chair after she placed the drinks on the table ''So what time are you going to see Santa''

Hermione turned around to look at the clock and saw it was a little after twelve she looked back ''We will leave just after one, besides I need to get my tattoo done''

Helen nodded ''Do you have to have a tattoo''

''Yes mum, its lovely you've seen what I'm having and it's not like I haven't got one already me Harry and Ron all have one''

''Oh yeah you each have three stars don't you?'' Richard asked

Lyra looked at her mother in shock ''the one on your side Mummy?''

Hermione smiled ''Yes sweetheart we were very silly and had been drinking and we decided to get a tattoo''

''But I thought you were being chased''

''This was before things got really bad love''

''How old were you'' Matthew asked

Hermione smiled ''We were fourteen, we snuck into London and had one done''

''Can I see them'' Matthew asked in awe

Hermione smiled she lifted up her top and pulled the waist band of her jeans down ''There we go'' she had three gold star tattoos on her hip, Harry had his on the inside of his wrist and Ron had his on his wrist also. ''You've seen mine before Matthew.

''I couldn't remember what they looked like''

Harry smiled and cancelled his glamour ''I have mine on my wrist and our friend Ron has it in the same place as me only on his right wrist instead''

Matthew traced the outline of the stars and frowned ''Wow, but Why stars''

Lyra smiled ''It's because they belong to a group remember there called the Golden something''

''Golden Trio'' Harry told them

''Wait Trio means three people doesn't it?'' Matthew asked raising his brow

''Yes it does'' Hermione said smiling at her son.

''Oh right I get it there are three of you and your friends that are famous so people called you the Golden Trio''

Hermione nodded ''That's right although we don't like that name, but we had been silly and decided that we would always be the Golden Trio at heart no matter what happens we have been through a lot together and decided to get them done''

Lyra and Matthew nodded ''Why do you hide them uncle Harry'' Lyra asked confused

''Because we were younger at the time and we forgot and part of it was that we wanted to keep it a secret so it was something that only three and now you too who know about because we are famous people like to know all about us and it was fun to know something that they don't know''

''Wicked'' Lyra and Matthew chimed in unison causing all the adults to laugh

''Where are you having it?''

''I don't know yet mum I am thinking of having their names and date of birth on each wrist but I also like my other one''

''You know you should have it somewhere so you can add to it when you have more children''

''Mum i doubt there will be any more children'' she said chuckling

''Never say never darling, Just think about it, what are you having Harry'' Helen asked smiling

''Oh I don't know I am only going to look I might not have one yet, like you said I may have more Godchildren and nieces and nephews so I would have to have something where I could add them to it when they come along''

Hermione glared at Harry ''And like I said I have no need for children I got two monsters I don't need anymore''

''But mum I would like a little sister, it's cool having a brother but he can be annoying and I want to be a big sister, I'm sick of Mat saying he's the big brother because he was born before me''

''Yeah and I want a brother because having a sister is very annoying'' Matthew said jumping in after his sister

Hermione shook her head ''I don't think I want anymore children,I have you and that's all I need, besides Mummy needs to find her prince charming and there isn't a prince charming out there for mummy''

Lyra gasped ''But Mummy everyone has a Prince charming right''

Hermione smiled ''You'll find a prince my angel but there aren't' any for mummy''

''No but there may be a king out there that would be perfect for you'' Harry said looking at Hermione

Hermione scowled at Harry ''I don't think there is a king for me Harry''

Harry sighed and dropped it he knew Hermione was stubborn he could only hope that judging from both Hermione's and Severus's actions earlier that something may come out of it.

''Right enough about Tattoos, Babies or Kings and Prince charming's and watch the film because once it's finished we will be getting ready to go visit Santa''

Lyra and Matthew both cheered and settled back to watch the film with their mother while Helen went back to her word search book, Richard back to his newspaper and Harry continued to look at the film but wasn't' watching it properly as his mind was working over time.

This is my first time adding a song into a story and making it look like people were singing it, I hope I did it justice. I thought it would be nice to have a happy time since it is Christmas coming up and Hermione is finally with her children again, there will be a lot more fun stuff going on in the next few chapters.

Next up a trip to the shopping mall and to see Father Christmas...
