Chapter 3: Bye-Bye Mummy(s)!
Hermione and Ginny kissed their children for the umpteenth time that morning.
"Are you sure you two are going to be all right?" Hermione asked.
"Don't worry your gorgeous head 'Mione. Mum, dad, George, and Lorelei are stopping by through out the week."
(George and Lorelei have been married for three months.)
"Really Harry," Ginny said, "Are you sure this is ok?"
"Hey, you deserve this. And when ever my beautiful wife is happy, I'm happy." He answered and kissed her.
A few minutes later, Hermione and Ginny kissed their husbands good-bye and apparated away.
Harry and Ron stood alone in the living room.
"See everything will be fine," Harry said. "Lily, James, and Addison are asleep, and Anna and William and playing nicely in the play pen."
Harry jinxed the nice moment. Anna took her rattle and threw it at William, hitting him in the head, making him scream, waking up the triplets. All five children were crying now.
Harry and Ron looked at each other and the "What have we done?" look came across their faces.
At Mystical Gardens
Hermione and Ginny just entered their rooms. They gasped at the beauty of it. It was a soft blue color, and the bed sheets matched. A see threw blue canopy was draped over the beds. White flowers were spread throughout the room. And right by the window was their very own hot tub and special relaxation potions to mix in the water.
"Oh, Hermione look!" Ginny exclaimed holding up a small bottle.
"What's that?" she asked.
"It's a potion you mix in the water. It says one touch and your muscles relieve tension instantly."
"Wicked," she answered back, "What say we change into our bathing suits and try it out?"
"Thought you would never ask," Ginny answered.
She put on the bubbles and heat and mixed in the appropriate amount of potion. Then she and Hermione changed into their bathing suits.
5 minutes later they sat in the hot tub. The potion was true. The minute they sat in the water all their tension was relived.
"Hermione?"
"Yeah Gin?"
"We have the greatest husbands."
She laughed and answered, "Yes we do. I wonder how they are getting along without us."
Back at Ron's house
Lily and William were asleep upstairs. Harry had put James in his swing, while holding a cranky Addison. Ron meanwhile was holding Anna while cleaning up spit up.
"Harry, it's been an hour and 15 minutes. What say we switch babies?"
"Good idea, maybe we will have better luck."
Harry gave Addison to Ron, and Ron gave Anna to Harry.
They rocked them for a while and soon the three remaining babies were fast asleep. They lied them down in their cribs and fell onto the couch.
"Wow, 5 babies, I never knew it would be that hard." Harry said.
"I know, but they are asleep, how about some TV?" Ron asked.
"Sure, sorry if I fall asleep on you though."
Ron laughed, "Don't worry I'll probably be out first."
Just then they heard Lily and William crying from upstairs. Harry and Ron just looked at each other and got up to go to their children
