It was early when Harry awoke, so early the twins had not yet arisen after their midnight feed. The moon was sinking in the lightening sky and the bed was still empty. Harry presumed Seamus was still on the couch downstairs.

He dressed in silence, what was he going to tell Seamus about Draco. He couldn't very well tell him the truth. No, that was way to harsh upon the Irish man, they had only just got together. Still Harry couldn't help but feel that things were moving way to fast for his liking.

That was it, he decided in his head that would be what he told Seamus. Harry saw Anna's eyes opening and he immediately picked her up and comforted her so she did not cry. Susan woke soon after that and also demanded to be in her 'mothers' arms.

After Harry feed and changed them he carried the down to the kitchen where he lay out the play mat on the floor and put them down where they amused themselves in the way normal babies do. Looking around and absorbing all they could about their surroundings, clutching at their tiny feet with their tiny hands.

Harry switched the radio on and began to cook the breakfast. He was in a seriously good mood and began to sing along with the music. However he did a double take when he heard the muggle radio presenter say his name.

Harry stopped and turned it up. "That's right, it has been requested that this song be played for Harry Potter from his...Slytherin lover I think it says. Whatever that may be I have no idea but I hope I pronounced it right."

He gasped as Hoobastank 'The Reason' began to play. He couldn't help but smile wider as he began to cook the eggs and bacon.

Seamus woke to the welcome sound of bacon sizzling in the kitchen. The aroma was strong and it made his stomach rumble. He made his way through to the kitchen and grinned at the sight that met his eyes. His boyfriend was singing alone to the radio as he cooked the breakfast and the twins were just existed on the floor occasionally letting out squeals or gurgles.

"Where did you get to last night?" He asked breaking the silence and making Harry jump slightly.

"Good morning." Harry chirped happily sliding the eggs and bacon on to two plates and fetching the toast from the toaster.

He set the plates down on the dining room table so they could eat. "So Har, where did you go?"

"Yeah, sorry about that I just had some thinking to do so I went up by the cliffs."

"Why didn't you wake me when you got back?"

"You looked so cute sleeping on the sofa, any way what is this, twenty questions?" Harry pouted giving his best puppy dog eyes to Seamus.

"All right, but you know I get worried about you. So what do you plan on doing today?"

"I was going to walk down to the supermarket with the twins and you have to go job hunting so we have a solid source of income." Harry said matter-of- factly as he wiped the egg yolk off the plate with a piece of toast.

"I know, I'll be off in a moment, do you need a hand getting the twins ready or will you be ok?"

"I'm sure I'll manage." Harry grinned.

Seamus went upstairs to dress and Harry put the twins in their pram with spare bottles, nappies and blankets in the compartment space underneath. He saw no need to put a blanket over them as it was quite a hot day but he did take care to put a sun repelling charm over them both so they couldn't get sunburn.

Seamus came down stairs and kissed his boyfriend goodbye and apperated to London while Harry carefully manoeuvred the pram outside, locked the door and set of down the street.

The supermarket was only a half an hour walk away, Harry enjoyed it as it had been so long since he had been able to show off his two daughters. On the way to do the shopping he found a play park where he sat for a while on a park bench playing with the twins idly as they lay in the pram.

There were quite a few mothers in the park all talking amongst themselves and Harry suddenly felt very left out and alone like he had done while staying at Private Drive before he knew he was a wizard.

When one of the women headed over to buy an ice cream from the shop just beyond the bench he smiled and gave a small wave. She looked at him and then into the pram and smiled before coming over.

"Are these your sisters?" she asked in a friendly way.

"No, they're mine." He said proudly. "This is the first time I've ever taken them out side."

"How old are you, you don't seem older than nineteen."

"I'm seventeen, eighteen next month." A screaming toddler came over shouting about ice cream. The woman picked her up and introduced her.

"This is my only daughter Fiona, she's four."

"Hello Fiona."

"Would you like to come and join us?" She motioned over towards four other women with children of varied ages around them.

"Sure, I'd love to."

Harry made his way over with the woman once she had bought an ice cream and she introduced herself and the other four.

"This is Sarah, Hannah, Christine, Kerry and I'm Diana."

"Hey, I'm Harry and these are my twins Susanna and Anastasia." There was a sort of mutter around the group as they noted his age. "'m almost seventeen and there is no mother she abandoned them to me so now I'm a single parent."

"Oh you poor boy." Kerry said sympathetically as Harry sat on a bench near the women the twins gurgling in the pram as he rocked them back and forth.

"I don't mind, I love them to bits and my godfather helps as does my boyfriend." Harry said before realising what he was saying.

"You're gay as well." Sarah said marvelling at the teenager before her.

"Yeah, my life's one long sob story really but I moved up here to get away from it all, to start a new life really, to give Anna and Susan a chance that I never had."

"What do your parents think about this?" Hannah asked as she clutched a what Harry thought looked like a year old baby.

"I wouldn't know, they were murdered when I was one."

There was an outcry in the group and Harry could tell he'd made new friends. It was amazing how much they seemed to care for him and his opinion. He told them about his life (removing everything slightly wizarding related) and only pause to feed Susan and Anna.

After about three hours talking to the other mothers Harry decided it was time he get to the supermarket and home again before Seamus worried.

"I have to get to the supermarket, I'm cooking dinner tonight and I haven't got anything in, maybe I'll see you tomorrow." Harry said hopefully.

The other women nodded in agreement and said their farewells as Harry set off. The rest of the outing was quite and normally quite. He considered stopping round to see Remus but then he remembered it was the full moon and he decided to let the man rest in peace.

Seamus wasn't back when he returned but he didn't mind he thrived in the solitude it gave him.

Susan and Anne were dozing in the kitchen in the pram as Harry cooked a simple pasta dish for them to enjoy.

The front door opened and shut, a second later Seamus bounced joyfully into the kitchen. "I got a job." He said, his voice shrill and high pitched with excitement.

"Great, what's the job?"

"I'm going to be a teacher at Hogwarts, it means that the twins can grow up in magical surroundings and you can have friends."

"But I already have friends here, I don't want to leave, in fact I refuse to go. You can go for it, it is what you always wanted but I can't, I'll still be here when you come home but I want a normal for the girls a life without magic all around them, it's what makes it so magical when you first find out."

"I don't want to leave you behind."

"I'm just a floo away, I may even come for weekend visits but I can't live there, I'm sorry."

"Don't be, would you be angry with me if I accepted the job anyway?"

"Not at all, I understand completely."

This was brilliant for Harry, it meant he would have time to clear his head alone with his daughters of course and decide where things stood with Draco and what he was going to say to Seamus about there relationship going to fast.

"So tell me about your day."

Harry began to tell his boyfriend about his day. About his new friends and how special they made him feel. Seamus was proud that Harry was able to move on so easy. Little did he know that what they had together, was leading for disaster. He had no idea how deep Harry's feelings for Draco, he had no idea that they were still in contact despite everything the blonde had done.
