Roxanne laid in bed, taking a sigh. She stretched out because Hector was out of town for work. She loved having him around, but sometimes she needed some time by herself. She was off today and thinking about what she wanted to do. She should go and see her grandmother, because her grandmother has been asking when she was coming over. She could go and see Al's and Alice's new baby boy, Paxon. He looked like a Potter to Roxanne. Roxanne could go to the shop to see her parents and brother. Lucy had asked if she wanted to lunch and do some wedding planning. Roxanne thought that she could just stay home and read a book. She didn't want to do much.

After they heard that Zack had escaped his country custody, Hector barely let Roxanne out of his sight. When this business trip came up, Roxanne almost pushed him out of the door. He told her to be careful. Zack could find her again. Roxanne knew this but didn't want Zack to run her life. If Hector had his way, Roxanne would never leave the flat again until he was found. Roxanne knew that she had to get out of the house, or she would kill the one man who she loved. It wouldn't look good for her. Roxanne had a feeling that Zack had left the country, because he didn't want to get caught.

Roxanne smiled. She just might stay home, in bed, and not do anything. Roxanne pulled Hector's pillow closer to her and took in his smell before closing her eyes. Just as she was getting comfortable there was a knock on the door. Roxanne moaned as she threw off the blanket. She looked at what she was wearing, it was one of Hector's button-up shirts and a pair of knickers. The person at the door was probably one of her cousins or her mother. She didn't think that she needed to change.

She made her way to the door, she looked through the peephole to see Daphne Zabini standing there. What the hell is Hector's mum doing here? Roxanne had a feeling that Hector had told his parents that he was going to be out of town for the next couple of days. It's not like Roxanne didn't like Hector's mum, it was just Roxanne wanted some time to herself. Or that she hasn't seen Hector's mum since she been back.

Roxanne took a breath before opening the door. "Mrs. Zabini," Roxanne smiled at her. "Hector is not here."

Daphne smiled. "I know. I'm here to see you," She pushed her way in the flat. "And I thought that I told you to call me, Daphne."

Roxanne closed the door. "What can I do for you?" Roxanne thought that she might want to put on some shorts.

Daphne looked around the flat. She was noticing the small changes that Roxanne and Hector had made when Roxanne moved in. "My son has been happy lately. I was trying to figure out why. Then I heard from my sister that you were back in town." Roxanne moaned. She almost forgot that Daphne was Rose aunt-in-law. "I wanted to see if you were here with him."

"Mrs." Daphne raised an eyebrow. "Daphne, yes I have been living here with Hector."

"Why haven't you and Hector had us over for dinner yet?" Daphne asked.

"Our schedules haven't the time," Roxanne really wanted to put on pants.

Daphne sighed. "Have you had anyone over?"

"No," Roxanne said. She tried to make her way to the bedroom to put on some pants. "Hector and I like it just being the two of us for the most part."

Daphne nodded. Roxanne didn't know if she would take that excuse. "Well, I think you should change, and we can go to lunch." Roxanne opened her mouth to say something, but Daphne threw her look.

Roxanne went to the bedroom to change. She grabbed her phone and sent a text to Hector about his mother being here. All she got for a respond was a laughing emoji. She was going to kill her boyfriend. She didn't think that he would be missed too much. She exited the room to see Daphne looking at picture of Hector and her when they were younger.

"I always liked this picture," She said. Roxanne nodded as she got a look of the picture. The picture was taken at Rose and Scorpius' wedding. Roxanne was laughing at something, and Hector was looking at her with so much love in his eyes. "You two were so innocent when this was taken," She put the picture down and looked at Roxanne. "Life has a way of taking that away," Roxanne nodded as she grabbed her purse.

They left the flat and Roxanne followed Daphne to a restaurant for lunch. Roxanne didn't know what they were going to talk about. Roxanne had spent time with Daphne, but Hector was around when they were together. Roxanne got a feeling that his parents didn't like her. Whenever she told Hector this, he would only laugh and say that she is seeing things.

After lunch, Roxanne and Daphne parted ways and Roxanne still didn't know what to make of the lunch. She pulled out her phone, found the group text that she wanted, and sent out a text. She got a respond from the others agreeing together.

She heard the first knock around seven o'clock and went to open the door to see Lucy standing with a couple of bottles of wine. She held but the bottles. "I can't wait to open these," She entered the flat. Roxanne laughed. They didn't have to wait long before Rose and Lily showed up with bottles of wine.

Roxanne grabbed wine glasses and went to the sitting room. They poured themselves a glass of wine. "This was a good idea," Lily took a sip of wine. The others took a sip.

"So, what should we talk about?" Rose asked.

Roxanne took another sip. "Today I had lunch with Hector's mum."

"Really," Lucy narrowed her eyes at Roxanne. "I asked you for lunch today and said no," Lucy took another sip. "Not that this better."

Roxanne laughed. "It was unexpected. She just showed up. I told her that Hector was out of town, and she had come to see me."

"So how was lunch?" Rose asked.

"Interesting. I always thought that Hector's parents didn't like me," Roxanne said. "But I was wrong. She asked me about how I liked being home in England. We talked about my job for a while. She asked me if Hector and I were thinking about marriage since I was back in town. I told her the truth that we have talked about it. Then she told me that she would like more than one grandchild."

The other three laughed. "It seems you had lunch with your future mother-in-law. Have you and Hector talked about children?" Lucy asked.

Roxanne blushed. "Yes, we both want at least two."

"Why not four like Rose here?" Lily pointed to Rose, who rolled her eyes. "How did you get rid of your kids tonight?"

Rose smiled before taking a sip of her wine. "Their father is watching them." Rose turned back to Roxanne. "So, you are thinking about more if it comes to be."

Roxanne nodded. "We want at least one boy and one girl, but depending on what happens," Roxanne raised one finger. "We are not having seven like Grandmum and Granddad."

The others laughed. "The only one who is close is Rose with four." Lily smiled at Rose. "She might come close."

Rose shook her head. "Scorpius and I are done having babies. We only have four more years before they start going to Hogwarts." Rose leaned back in chair. "I think that you all should have children." Rose tilted her glass to each one of them.

"I think that Lucy will be next," Lily nodded towards Lucy.

"Hey, just because I'm getting married soon. Does not mean that Derek and I are planning on having children soon. I mean Hector could knock up Roxanne," Lucy waved towards Roxanne.

"Hey," Roxanne shouted with a smile.

Lucy ignored her. "Or you could get knock up," She waved towards Lily.

"That is never going to happen since I use protection," Lily threw Lucy a look.

"Wait," Rose sat up in her chair. "Are you sleeping with someone?"

Roxanne saw a blush form on Lily's face. It was all Lucy and Rose needed. "Who?" Lucy asked. That was the problem when they knew each other since they were little and would hang out just the four of them. They could read each other very well. Roxanne wondered why it took them this long to figure out that Lily was sleeping with one person. Roxanne found out right away when she got back to England.

Lily sighed. "Brett."

"As in your brother's best friend Brett or a different one," There was a look in Rose's eyes like she was on to something.

"Yes, as in James' best friend," Lily covered her lips with her glass.

"Ha," Rose turned to Lucy. "I knew it. Pay up," Rose motioned her hand for Lucy to pay up.

"Damn," Lucy said as she dug in her pocket and handed Rose some coins.

"How did you know?" Lily asked. "I thought that I kept to myself."

"Probably from most of the family, but not from the two of us, who knows you best," Lucy had sparkle in eyes. "How long have you and Brett been together?"

"Since the finals last year, so about a year," Lily had to think for a moment.

"How is he?" Rose lifted one eyebrow. "I know we have all thought about Brett."

"Yeah, what does he look like under those quidditch robes?" Lucy smiled.

Lily rolled her eyes at her cousins. "A girl doesn't kiss and tell," She smiled.

"Ha," All three of them laughed. "We know you," Roxanne said.

"Yeah, what about that guy named Max or Ken," Rose stated.

Lily sighed. "Brett is…I don't know how to explain things to it different with him than with other men." The other women nodded. They all understood what she was saying. Rose twisted her wedding ring, Lucy fiddled with her engagement ring, and Roxanne touched the white buttons on the shirt she was wearing.

It was a wonderful night for Roxanne, she smiled as she threw away the five bottles of wine, put the four wine glasses in the sink to be washed, and put the last bottle away in the wine cooler. She had missed this when she was in New York and was glad that they decided to do this once a month. Roxanne went to bed with a smile.

Hector stepped out of the private investigator's office. He felt good about what he did. He didn't want this man to pop up again and hurt Roxanne. He had told the wizard that money was no opuscule. Hector knew that he should leave it to the Aurors, but this is the woman he loved, and Zack had hurt her before.

"Hector," He felt a slap on his back. He turned around to see Scorpius standing there. "What are you doing?" Scorpius saw the sign above the door.

"I hired a private investigator to find Zack Winters," Hector hissed.

"There are aurors to find him," Scorpius looked at his cousin.

"They won't find him fast enough for my liking. Having him out there is putting a shadow over Roxanne's and mine relationship." Hector started to walk down the Ally.

Scorpius frowned and followed Hector. "You have to tell Al to what you did."

"Why?" Hector stopped in his tracks. "He doesn't have to know what I'm doing."

"Yes, but it out of respect to him because he is family and your friend," Scorpius looked in Hector's eyes. "One day he will be your cousin when you marry Roxanne."

Hector sighed. "Fine."

"I'll go with you," Scorpius smiled.

They found a spot and apparated away. They appeared in an ally next to the house that Al lived with his wife and new son. They knew that he would be home because he was off from work for a couple of weeks to be with his family. They walked the sidewalk to the house. Scorpius was the one who knocked on the door.

"Shh," Al opened the door to see them. He stepped out and closed the door. "Alice and Paxon are sleeping. What are you doing here?" Scorpius looked at Hector and Hector told Al what he did. Al sighed. "You have every right to do what you want. I only have one condition, please tell me his name." Hector told him his name. Al nodded. "I also think you should tell Roxanne," Hector gave him a look. "I see that you won't." They talked to Al for a moments before leaving.

Scorpius was ready to apparated when he got a text. Scorpius frowned than smiled. Hector raised one eyebrow. "Rose wants me to watch the children tonight so she can have a girl's night with her cousins."

"Why are you smiling than?" Hector asked.

"Rose is going to come back drunk and will want to have sex," Scorpius smile grew.

Hector smiled for his cousin. "Let's hope it doesn't lead to another Malfoy," Scorpius made a face.

"I don't need another child," Hector laughed and watched his cousin disappeared. Hector thought he might end his business trip early and go home to Roxanne.

Later that night, Hector opened the door to his flat and saw it dark. He smiled to himself as he made his way in. He saw the glasses in the sink before going to the bedroom. Roxanne was lying in the center of the bed with her eyes closed. She didn't notice that he was there. Hector crawled under the blanket and saw why Roxanne was ignoring him. He placed his hand over hers. Roxanne pulled the blanket back and looked down at him.

"I see your business trip ended early."

Hector smiled and made his way over her. "Yes," Than he kissed her.
