"Where are we going Màthair," Robbie asked as he held her hand lovingly.
Minerva smiled before pointing to a field with a clump of trees. "What do you see?" she asked curiously.
"Potion ingredients," he answered with with grin.
Minerva rolled her eyes before speaking, "I see a lovely spot of land that can be cleared. I imagine a lovely three story building could be constructed and designed into a functional primary school."
Robbie looked at his mother in shock. "What?" he whispered emotionally.
Minerva smiled tenderly at her son. "I purchase the land already. Severus knew a magical contractor that is drawing up a few different blueprints with things Severus and I thought might interest you. Your Grand-père and Grand-mère are gathering discounted supplies as we speak. They know how you feel about wasting perfectly good supplies because they are a bit worn. Once you decide on the version of building you want, it will be constructed."
"Màthair," he whispered as he hugged her tenderly. "Thank you."
Minerva smiled at her son affectionately. "You are most welcome dearest," she whispered as she pulled her son back into her arms. "I promise to always do whatever I can to help you succeed in life."
Minerva woke up just as her water broke. "Severus," she whispered as a contraction rippled across her belly. She grunted through the pain as her husband stirred.
"Minerva," he whispered frantically.
She offered him a tight smile before revealing, "My water broke. Firecall Poppy for me?" Severus kissed her lips gently before doing so.
"Are we too late?" Hermione asked as she and Harry rushed in.
"Just in time," Robbie said as they heard wailing errupt from two distinct babies.
Poppy opened the door and beckoned the guests inside. Minerva was propped up in bed with a serene smile on her face. She was gazing contently at her babes. One blue blanket and one pink blanket wrapped tightly around the new editions. Severus sat next to her and was silently crying tears of joy as he looked at he babies and back to his overjoyed wife.
"One of each?" Hermione asked curiously.
Minerva nodded her head and grinned happily at her family. "Samuel Malcolm and Helena Mya," she informed her children.
"Mya," Hermione questioned suprised.
"Mya in honor of my first girl," Snape whispered emotionally as he stood up and pressed a kiss to Hermione's forehead.
"Now we know who your favorite is," Robbie teased gently and then moved to his mother. He saw a tuff of raven black hair on both of the sleeping babies. "They look like Màthair," he realized.
"Of which I am grateful for," Severus said dryly. "I hope they have her eye color too."
"They are gorgeous," Hermione whispered as she gently picked up her sister.
"Have you realized they were born on your birthday?" Harry asked her.
Robbie and Hermione looked at each other in suprised. It was 3 in the morning and technically September 19th. They smiled at each other and then looked at Minerva mischievously. "Best birthday presents ever!" they said in their sing-song tone. Minerva smiled happily.
Minerva smiled down at her babes as she entered her living room amd sat with Hermione and Robbie. They gladly accepted a baby and leaned in close to their mother. "Did you ever think our lives would change such from a conversation in a muggle café and a muggle picture?" she asked Hermione.
Hermione smiled and shook her head no. "I didn't but I am extremely happy," she confessed. "I sought you out to help protect Robbie but I never dreamed you would become so involved. I was used to Professor McGonagall, my favorite professor by the way. I admit I enjoy having you as Màthair so much more."
Minerva teared up and pressed a kiss to her daughter's forehead. "Thank you for giving me this chance," she whispered and then kissed Robbie's forehead. "I never want to relive those days that were before you. I may remember Arwen fondly but the loneliness after her was overwhelming and I am beyond grateful to have you. All of you make life amazingly beautiful!"
"Màthair," Hermione whispered lovingly. "You make our lives beautiful too, you know?"
"You are the one we can count on to support us regardless of what we want to achieve," Robbie added.
"That makes you pretty special Minerva McGonagall," they whispered together and then burrowed into her embrace. She wrapped her arms around them and cried happy tears. I have this because of a meeting in a muggle café and a picture! I cannot wait to see what else life throws our way!
