Hi everyone, sorry it took me so long to update. It's called family vacation and computer problems. Plus I had a bit of a dilemma, I was thinking of rewriting the last chapter but then I decided not to. I know it wasn't my best work but I will try to do better.

I don't own Harry Potter and CO. I just want to entertain you.

RETURN TO HOGWARTS

The next two days was a blur or activities. Between packing and planning for their training, the gang was quite busy. Harry was worried because Voldemort had been quiet, too quiet lately. Harry knew they would have to get ready for his usual yearly attack and he was worried about Draco and the twins. Draco had told him this morning that he didn't think he would make it to his due date. He had started feeling some slight twinge in his lower back. Harry had sent a message to Queen Adira to tell her of this new developpement. She had sent back her own message stating that elven healers would be waiting for them at the chamber and Lady Shara would be the one to take care of the twins while he and Lord Draco were in class.

Severus had left early yesterday to make sure the coast would be clear when they got back so the students who had stayed for the holydays were occupied. He kind of felt left out being the only one that wasn't in a relationship. He had decided to leave the love birds to have one final night by themselves. He also didn't want them to know that he actually envied them. He was a proud man and didn't want pity. In his mind, he was probably going to be alone for the rest of his life. And due to his new sorcerer powers it would be a long lonely life. The last Dragon Master Sorcerer had lived to be almost seven hundred years old and Severus was even more powerful than him since he had bonded with two Dragon kings. "At least I will have my friends with me for a long time since all of them have extraordinary powers.

Back at Grimauld Place Harry noticed that Draco was getting paler and kept rubbing his lower back. "Oh, oh I think it's time we went back to Hogwarts." (Guys I'm taking Draco to Hogwarts right now. Do you mind bringing our luggage for us? I think my husband has gone in labor.)

Hermione voice answered him back. (Really, of course we will help you. Hurry and I'll make sure everything is ok on this end.)

(Thanks Mione. I'll see you later.)

(Don't worry about us. Take care of Draco and my goddaughters.) Remus' calm voice was also heard. Soon everyone had wished them good luck and a speedy delivery.

Harry took his husband in his arms and kissed him. "Don't worry love, I'll just apparate us to the gates of Hogwarts then I'll carry you to the chamber so you don't get tired."

Draco looked at Harry relieved. "Thanks love, I think our babies are in a hurry to see the world. The pain doubled in just a half and hour."

"Get ready Dray. I'll let Severus know we're heading his way and have him waiting for us at the gate just in case."

"Ok" Draco suddenly bent over holding his stomach as a really strong contraction hit him.

Harry called Severus with a bit of panic in his voice as he saw his love in pain. (Severus, I'm taking Draco to school right now. He's in labor and things seem to be going quickly. Can you be ready for us at the gate in about three minutes?)

(Of course Harry. I'm on my way there right now.)

(All right see you there.)

Harry turned and held on to Draco has he apparated them both to the Hogwarts gates. Severus was waiting for them with a potion. He gave it to Draco telling him that it would take the edge of the contractions for a while giving them time to get him to bed in the chamber.

"Harry have you let the Elf Queen know that we're on our way right now with Draco?"

"No I'll do that right now"

Harry quickly closed his eyes and called for Queen Adira; he let her know that the twins would really be early and they needed the Healers there right now. She told him it would be no problem. They would be there when they got to the chamber. Harry thanked her and started running towards the castle with Draco in his arms.

Draco seemed to be feeling a bit better but was still holding his stomach. As soon that they got to the chamber three healers helped get Draco ready for the birth. They changed his clothes and set him up in a room that looked like a muggle birthing room. Harry sat at the head of the bed holding Draco's hand. The labor went on for two hours before Draco's water broke. Both boys were so into the birth of their children that they didn't notice the others arriving and settling themselves in the sitting room to wait out the birth. Hermione and Remus were reading a book and often looking up at the clock. Severus and Ron had decided to play a game of chess. Ron was happy to find a worthy opponent in the potion master. Sirius was pacing the floor and wondering how everyone else could be so calm.

Ron looked up from his game and frowned when he saw the Mage making a hole in the rug. "Relax Sirius; my mother's healers are the best on earth. They will not let anything happen to Lord Draco and the two little ladies he carries."

"I know; I'm just worried of how devastated Harry would be if something would happen to any of them."

Remus seeing just how worried Sirius was put his book away and got up to hold his husband in his arms. "If your this worried about Draco being in labor what will we do when we have our own children."

Sirius looked at Remus who seemed to be hiding something. "I'll worry about that when the time comes."

Remus turned away mumbling something about that maybe not being so far away as he thinks. With his canine hearing he heard what his husband said and Sirius' eyes went wide at what the implication of what those words meant. He would have to have a long talk with his prince of a husband once this day was over. He sat down occasionally looking at Remus would didn't seem to want to meet his eyes.

Inside the birthing room Draco was starting to feel the contractions full force. He kept growling at Harry and telling that he would never touch him again if he knew what was good for a certain part of his anatomy. Harry had been warned that this was normal behavior for someone in labor so he didn't take it personally. He kept on holding Draco's hand even if he didn't feel his fingers anymore. Draco had long squeezed any feelings out of them.

After a few more hours the Healers announced to Draco that he could start pushing. Draco pushed for a good hour. His strength was starting to leave him.

"I can't do this anymore Harry."

"Just a little more love and we'll have two beautiful daughters in our arms. Please don't give up."

Draco gave one hard push and finally the first baby's head could be seen. It was covered with platinum blond hair just like Draco's. When she was finally out she let out a wail that would make a banshee run for cover. One of the healers handed her over to Draco with a smile.

"She's a fine young lady; this one will make her way in the world. She is strong."

Harry leaned over and kissed his husband and his new daughter. "Hello sweet Lily. I'm your papa." Draco handed her over to Harry as he wasn't done giving birth; they still had another little on to bring into the world. After a few more pushes Marguerite was born. She had a full head of black hair the same color has Harry's. Harry choked on his tears when he saw this. They would have miniature versions of both of them running around the chamber. Draco held Marguerite while Harry held on to Lily. The healers had finished treating Draco who soon would be back to normal. Unlike a woman the male only took two days for their body to get back to normal.

Draco was presently speaking to his youngest little girl. "Well at least your not identical. It will be easier this way for daddy and papa to tell you apart. But something still tells me that you two will get in lots of trouble." Marguerite's eyes seemed to brighten at the sound of her father's voice. She had also cried when she was born but had a quieter cry than her sister. Her eyes seemed to be a lighter blue than Lily's; Draco knew that all newborn had blue eyes so he hopped that one of them would have Harry's emerald eyes.

The healer had conjured up two bottles of milk and had showed the new parents how to feed the children. They had also transfigured the bed into a normal one so the birth father could rest and be comfortable.

After the two new bundles had been examined and brought out for the others to see they had been put to bed in the same crib. The healers had recommended not separating them for at least a few weeks since they had been so close to each other in the womb. The healer left and a few minutes later a beautiful young woman who looked to be about thirty years old appeared in the room.

"I am Lady Shara and I will be your twin's nanny. I was assigned to this task by Queen Adira."

Harry looked at the woman who smiled at him. She had red hair that went down to her waist. It cascaded in long waves. It was even redder than Ron's hair if that was possible. She had beautiful green eyes in which Harry could only see kindness. She held herself up proudly as her rank in court demanded. She was petite just like the other elf females he had seen. She looked like a fragile flower but she radiate a strength and power that he had seen in the few high elves he had met." He smiled at her and welcomed her. Draco who was dosing off also mumbled a welcome.

"Thank you for your kind welcome my Lords. Please Lord Draco sleep it will do you good." Harry watched as she made her way towards the crib. He could see tears in her eyes as she ran a finger down both girls' cheek. "Why is she crying?" he tough. Harry didn't understand the sadness that seemed to roll of the elf.

"What's wring Lady Shara?"

"Oh, nothing for you to worry about my Lord."

"Please call me Harry. And yes I really want to know why you are sad."

"The reason why I was given this assignment is because I'm the only elven royal who still has to find my mate. I'm almost past the age of being able to have children. I long to hold a child of my own in my arms. So my cousin the Queen thought this would do me some good." She smile at Harry and asked him if he could show her where her quarters would be.

Harry who had been caught unprepared by the quick birth of his children told her that he had not set up a room yet.

"I'm sorry this was just such a surprise I didn't have time to set up a room for you. I will ask Severus if he wants to help out. Just give me a moment."

Harry called for the potion master. (Severus can you come to the chamber for a few minutes. I need you to conjure up a room for Lady Shara. With all this excitement I king of forgot.) He could hear Severus chuckling as he made his way back to the chamber.

(What! The golden boy of Gryffindor forget such an important task.)

(Oh do shut up.)

A few minutes later Severus made his way into the sitting room where Lady Shara was waiting for him. His breath caught in his throat when he saw the most beautiful woman he had ever seen sitting and quietly drinking tea. The light of the fire shone in her red hair making it almost look like flames. Two startling emerald eyes looked up at him and went wide when they saw him. A blush appeared on her cheeks. She got up and introduced herself.

"Good evening I am Lady Shara, cousin of Queen Adira. I am the twins' new nanny." She extended a hand to shake Severus'. She looked into his onyx colored eyes and blushed again. "My goodness I'm acting like a school girl meeting her crush for the first time." She took a good look at Severus. "My, he is one fine male specimen."

Severus took her hand but instead of shaking it he kissed it very gallantly.

"I am Severus Snape, Dragon Master Sorcerer at your service, my lady."

"Well if I would have known that such a handsome human would be here to great me I would have come sooner." She looked over to Severus to see a slight blush on his cheeks.

They talked as Severus prepared a room for her. She was amazed to see that he was quite talented. A potions master and the godfather of the Unicorn Lord. She would have to think about this attraction to this human man. As she bid him good night she gave him a chaste kiss on his cheek. She closed the door to her room and soon fell asleep dreaming of the tall darks and handsome man she had just met.

Severus stood for a few minutes just staring at her door with his hand touching the spot where she had kissed him. "Wow, she's absolutely amazing." He thought.

During the night the twins woke up both crying for attention. Lady Shara showed Harry how to change a diaper and helped him feed the girls. They decided to let Draco sleep so he would recover from the birth quicker. Harry asked her if everything was ok with the room that Severus made for her. He saw her blush when he mentioned the potion master. "What's this; could she be attracted to Severus?" He smiled and knew Draco would love this little bit in information. He knew that Severus had felt a bit left out since everyone but him were in a couple. They placed the girls back to bed and bid each other good night. Harry made his way back to Draco who was still sleeping peacefully. Harry lay down and took Draco in his arms. He felt the blond snuggle up to him and soon also feel asleep.

Then next morning he was woken up by faint cries coming from the nursery. He got up and noticed that Draco was already up and changing one of the girls with the help of Lady Shara. She was very patient with them understanding that for two young men this was quite a lot to undertake. Harry went to the crib to pick up Marguerite who was also fusing. He brought her over to the changing table and quickly made sure she was comfortable. Then using wandless magic he conjured two bottles of milk and gave one to Draco. They both sat side by side feeding their daughters while Shara watched with a smile. "They will be fine fathers. They already have such love for their children." She watched as Draco leaned over and gave his husband a good morning kiss. Harry happily responded to the kiss, and then laughed has Draco said something in his ear. The look that they gave each other left no doubt at what the young Lord had suggested to his raven haired lover. She would have to talk to them about protection if they didn't want to make their family bigger too soon. She asked them if they wanted breakfast. Both agreed and she made her way to the kitchen and started to make the meal. She was looking for something in the fridge when Severus and the others came in and saw her. The first thing Severus notices was the nice shape of her hips and backside as she was bent down to grab some eggs from the bottom of the fridge. She turned around and almost dropped the eggs when she noticed the six five people looking at her.

"Hello, I'm Lady Shara. I'm the twin's nanny."

"Hello aunt Shara, my mother told me about you coming to take care of the girls." Ron looked at the red head elf that was standing in the middle of the kitchen.

"Ah Prince Alderic, it's a pleasure to finally meet you. My sister is always talking about her spirited son." She laughed as Ron blushed a bright red. He turned around and held Hermione hand while introducing her.

"This is my fiancé; Princess Hermione of the Vampire realm." He turned towards Remus. "This is Prince Remus Lupin of the Werewolf realm and his husband Gryffin Arch Mage Sirius Black." Then he turned around and faced Severus. "This is..."

She interrupted him "Severus Snape. Dragon Master Sorcerer and potion master of Hogwarts." She made her way to Severus and greeted him with another chaste kiss on his cheek. "We met last night; he helped Harry by conjuring me a room to stay in." She was looking at Severus and didn't see the shock look in everyone's eyes when she had kissed him. Draco came into the kitchen holding Lily at that moment and saw the look on everyone's face. He was about to ask what was going on when he noticed the red haired woman he had met last night. She was smiling at his godfather who had a slight blush on his cheeks. "OK what did I miss?" (Harry, what's going on between Severus and Lady Shara. Their making googly eyes at each other. I don't think I've ever seen Sev blush.) He heard his husband laugh through their link.

(I though Lady Shara acted a bit strange last night when I asked her how Severus had handled making her room. She also blushed when I mentioned your godfather. Maybe we should get both of them together.)

(From the looks of it I think we have our work cut out for us. I think it's almost a sure thing that those two will get together eventually.)

(Now to change the subject. How do you feel this morning love?)

(I'm ok but I don't want to go through that again for another few years. We will definitely start using protection from now on.)

(Yes your right. We will wait at least until were in our twenties to have more children.)

(Well with fertility potions maybe next time you can be pregnant.)

(Maybe, we'll talk about it when the time comes. Right now I just want to eat breakfast and relax with my new family.)

(I love you so much Harry Potter, Give me a week and I'll be able to show you just how much.) Draco purred in their connection.

(Draco Malfoy, stop before you give me a problem I won't be able to fix, with all these people here.)

Draco burst laughing and sat at the kitchen table placing Lily in a special carrier they had set up for them. Harry soon made his way over to them and place Marguerite in her own carrier. They sat with their extended family eating breakfast when Albus made an appearance. He was carrying two gifts in his arms and handed each of the young Lords one.

Inside each gift was a teddy bear with a two colored bracelet. Half of it was gold the other silver. He explained how the teddy bears were like a muggle monitor system he had once seen that would let the parents hear the noise in the nursery when they had things to do in other parts of the house. He had charmed the gold side of the bracelet to glow when Lily cried and the silver half to glow when Marguerite would make a fuss too. All they had to do is leave one teddy bear in each of their crib as they were enchanted with wards to activate the bracelets. Both boys thanked the old professor for his thoughtful gift. He knew they would be worried about their children when they got back to class. He turned to Remus and also let him know that he had placed a protection charm on the silver half that if ever he came in contact with it he would not get hurt.

After breakfast Remus took one of the babies in his arms and held her just like he had held Harry when he was a baby. He loved the smell of newborns. His wolf side told him that they were new additions to his pack and that he would protect them fiercely. He looked up to see Sirius give him a strange look. Remus smiled at his husband. He had an appointment to see Poppy later that day. If it was what he thought was going on with him these past few days he didn't know how Sirius would react.

They had talked about having children, but wanted to wait until after the war. But just like Harry and Draco, little accidents happen. He had talked to his mother and she had told him that his new powers would make him more fertile during the phases of the full moon for the first few months. And not knowing this they had used no protection. "Oh well, what will be will be." He smiled at the sleeping infant and hope deep inside of him swelled at the thought that maybe he would soon hold his own child in his arms.

He gave the sleeping girl to Sirius who soon was rocking her gently and started telling her of all the pranks he would teach her for when she started school. Remus just rolled his eyes at his sometimes immature lover. Harry just laughed while Draco looked horrified at the thought of one of his daughters following in the marauders footsteps.

Severus seeing the worried looks his godson was giving the animagus just chuckled and said. "You won't be able to stop them Draco; they have Potter blood inside them. Just that much spells trouble."

"Hey I resent that. I don't spend my time playing pranks."

Severus just raised an eyebrow and gave him a look that said "If you think I'm going to believe that then you're crazier that I am."

Harry was about to reply when he felt his husbands lips on his. His mind was quickly on something else. When they came up for air, they blushed when they noticed everyone looking at them. Hermione was holding the other twin and was being held by Ron. He whispered something in her ears sending her into fits of giggles.

"If you two don't stop you'll run out of space in the chamber of secrets for children's rooms."

"Don't worry Ron; we don't plan to have more children for another few years. We will make sure of it this time." Harry stuck his tongue out at his red head friend.

Some of the group soon left Draco and Harry's quarters to go train in the chamber. Albus made his way back to his office. Severus decided to show the castle to Shara. Sirius told her it was ok to go as he would stay and help the boys if they needed something. He had noticed the attraction between the two and thought this would be a good opportunity for them to get to know each other.

After looking at his watch Remus left to go to the infirmary for his test. He told Sirius that he would be back soon he just had to do a few things in their office. Sirius watched him go and frowned. "What is he hiding from me?" Harry noticed too that Remus had been acting a bit strange theses last few days. He just shrugged it off. Sirius would be able to handle Remus after all they had been together for years.

Harry after helping Draco put the twins to bed. He decided to go and train for a bit with Ron and Hermione. He left Sirius playing a game of chess with Draco. He kissed his husband and let him get back to his game. After an hour and a half of training Sirius came out to ask if anyone had seen Remus. He had been gone for a long time for someone who had just left to get a few things from his office.

Harry pulled out the marauders map and searched for Remus. His dot showed up next to Poppy's in the infirmary. Sirius paled thinking the worst. He asked Hermione to help the boys with the babies while he went up to the infirmary to see what was wrong with his husband. Once he reached the infirmary doors he paused and took a deep breath to calm himself. If Remus was sick it wouldn't do for him to see him in such a state.

He pushed the doors and walked in. He saw Poppy talking with Remus who was lying in a bed. She was showing him some brochures and laughed at something Remus said. Sirius walked over to his husband and crossed his arms waiting for an explanation. Remus looked up to see an angry Mage looking at him. He paled and saw Sirius eyes turn to worry. Sirius came up to him and held him in his arms.

"What's wrong Remus? Please tell me, are you sick?" Sirius couldn't stop his voice from cracking. He let go of Remus and held his face in his hands. He kiss his love softly. When Remus opened his eyes after the kiss he saw that Sirius had tears in his eyes. Unable to keep him in suspense any longer he gave him the news.

"Sirius I'm not sick, I'm pregnant. I'm about one month along, and I have about five more to go."

"Pre... pregnant... but how..." Remus raised an eyebrow at this. Sirius shook his head. "That's not what I mean. You didn't take a fertility potion."

"I know, when I discovered that I might be pregnant I got in contact with my mother and she told me that every werewolf who goes to the changes I've gone through become more fertile for a few months during the full moon phase. What do you think of this?"

The only answer that Sirius gave him was a deep loving kiss...
