Court Room- 12:57
" Court is now in session. Ms. Owens, you stated a very well thought out case. You also stated you would willingly legally become James and Maxine Carter's mother. Is this correct?"
" Yes ma'am."
" And that Fred Weasley was willing to become their father in the eyes of the law?"
" Yes ma'am." Sam couldn't wipe the hopeful grin off her face.
" That's all I needed to hear. The court finds in favor of the plaintiff. Join me in my personal chambers and we'll sign all the papers. Court dismissed." Judge Neiman banged the gavel and everyone shot up, grinning and shouting in happiness.
The doors banged open and both James and Maxine rocketed into the room, leaping five feet into Sam and Fred's open arms.
" NO!" Jules screeched, almost flying at where Sam, Fred and their new children stood clutching each other happily. Sam hastily handed Maxine to Fred and turned to face her sisters' rage.
Richard managed to grab his wife around the waist before she could do any more damage to their case, whispering in her ear. The steam pouring from her ears didn't lessen any but she managed to control herself.
" Come on sweetie." Sam said, picking Max up into her arms again. " Let's go get those papers signed." She reached out a hand for Fred and pulled him and his child-sized bundle along with her and Maxine.
