Once the shopping was over, Jade and the rest of the women put back the groceries in the car. Everyone had apparated off except for Hermione who stood back to be both Molly and Jade's support if either of them lost their minds. Jade kept up a normal conversation, at times daring to do a 20 when Molly wasn't paying attention. Other than that, Jade had to keep everything up at crawl speed.

"Home!" Jade said parking her car in the garage. She helped Molly get out and Hermione who was pregnant. "Up this way." Jade said showing them to a door that led to a hallway that passed Draco's office and lead to the kitchen.

"Oh every time I look at your kitchen, it sends shivers down my spine. It's like love at first sight." Molly said seeing Jade laugh and take her coat.

"We're halfway done." Ginny told Jade, Hermione and Molly. The doorbell rang and Jade opened the door to reveal Mr. and Mrs. Bailey without any of their children. Mr. and Mrs. Bailey looked comfortable but they both acted polite and took everything in stride. Mrs. Bailey grimaced when Jade introduced them to her mother who smiled sweetly at them.

"How do you do?" Mrs. Bailey asked shaking Molly's hand.

"My Mum's actually paranoid about having people too near the car. She wouldn't want anyone to get hurt because of me." Jade said.

"But we were by the side of the car; we wouldn't have gotten hurt even if we wanted to." Mr. Bailey joked seeing Jade laugh but Molly look incredibly worried by his comment. He stopped laughing and cleared his throat.

"Erm, that was a joke Mrs. Weasley." He told her, seeing her give him a tight smile.

"Well if you would excuse me, I think the casserole is done." Molly said leaving.

Jade introduced the Bailey's to her sister-in-laws and Ginny. As soon as Mr. Bailey had seen Fleur, he immediately gaped and couldn't pry his eyes off of her. When Mrs. Bailey had noticed, she elbowed him hard in his chest and snuck in 'I'll kill you when we get home' looks.

"And I'd also like to let you meet my nieces and nephews." Jade said leaving to find the rest of her nieces and nephews. She went downstairs to the basement to see little Arthur playing the muggle video games with Draco, Harry and Bill. Fred, Ron, George, Charlie and her father Arthur were sitting back, fascinated with the television and video games.

"Hey sweetheart." Jade said picking Albus up. "Roxy, Victoire, Dominique come upstairs." Jade said seeing their faces twist in torment, not being able to tear themselves away from such a captivating muggle device.

"We've got some muggle visitors, my neighbors and they want to meet you. Just for a few seconds." Jade said seeing them start inching towards, their eyes glued towards the screen.

"I play?" Albus asked pointing to the television. Jade planted a kiss on him and tickled his stomach, seeing him squirm.

"Let's get all of your cousins and uncles out of the basement so they can meet our guests. Draco we have guests over." Jade said. She saw him move his head, his eyes stuck to the screen.

"Oh…nice." Draco said.

Jade saw her father look at her and crack up. "Draco, the Bailey's are here." Jade said seeing him grunt in response.

"Dad, I have my neighbors, the Baileys upstairs and they want to meet you. Fred, George, Charlie." Jade called. Arthur got up and tapped his sons to join him to met Jade and Draco's neighbors.

"This has got to be the biggest discovery I've ever made about muggles. Draco explained what this 'video game' is supposed to be. Muggles must spare a lot of time for something so wonderful!" Arthur said seeing Jade grin widely.

"When Draco first introduced me to the video game system, the first thing I thought was about you. I knew how excited you would get if you got to see this too and felt like I was cheating when I got to see it." Jade said. Arthur chuckled and wrapped an arm around Jade and kissed her temple.

"Yes well…every time I received a new artifact, the first person I wanted to tell was you…and when I came home, I realized that you were gone, somewhere where I couldn't reach you. It was awfully hard to have you gone sweetheart." Arthur said.

Jade hugged her father and felt her heart weep for being able to be with her father again. She sobbed feeling her father hug her tighter and console her quietly.

"George take Albus." Arthur said softly. Jade heard George quietly ask what was wrong with Jade and didn't hear her father respond, though she knew he was shaking his head. George gently took Albus from Jade's arm and Jade fully hugged her father until she felt much better.

"Feeling better?" Arthur asked as Jade nodded and pulled away, running her hands through her hair and wiping her face.

"Thanks Dad." Jade said. Arthur kissed her head again and shook her shoulders gently.

"Oh you grown woman!" he said seeing her smile.

"Where have the rest of the men gone? Arthur are you downstairs?" Molly asked.

"Yes." Arthur and little Arthur answered.

"Go upstairs! You have to meet the Bailey's; I'm getting the rest of the boys." Jade said seeing Arthur nod.

"Come quickly all right honey? I love you sweetheart." Arthur said giving Jade one last hug.

"I love you too Dad." Jade said. Arthur left with Bill and George and Jade turned to Fred who locked her head on his arm and rustled her hair.

"Fred! Let go!" Jade yelled.

"Why can't you cry when I hug you? Do you not love me?" Fred asked hugging his sister tightly.

"Not when you're being an arse. Good Merlin Fred." Jade said as Fred rocked her back and forth.

"Me an arse? Whatever do you mean?" he asked as Jade snorted.

"Hey Draco, Harry, Ron, Bill! Get up!" Jade called.

Bill got up when his character was killed by Draco's character. Harry and Ron played vigorously and Bill picked up little Arthur who was disappointed that Ron snatched the controller from him.

"Honestly Bill, you lost, there's no use watching them now." Fred said seeing Bill laugh.

"But I'm waiting for Harry or Ron to give Draco a bitter death. Come on lad!" Bill shouted when Ron tried to fight off Draco's character.

"This isn't fair! I haven't got the experience to fight him!" Ron shouted, turning red.

"Keep pressing X Uncle Ron!" little Arthur shouted.

"Hey! No helping." Draco said angling his body slightly as he almost killed off Ron's character who suddenly launched life losing kicks at him.

Ron pounded the controller as if his life depended on it and let out a string of vulgar words that made Bill cover little Arthur's ears from.

"YOU'RE FINISHED! Fatality! I love this game! Oh, Oh, Oh, watch the slow replay." Draco said pointing at the screen. Ron snarled as he watched Draco's best move was being made on his character.

"OHHHH Poor uncle Ron, that was awesome Uncle Draco!" Arthur screamed excitedly.

"Thank you Arthur." Draco grinned.

"Whose side are you on?" Ron asked getting up and joining Bill.

"How long do we have to wait? We have guests!" Jade complained.

"One second love. Let me find Harry." Draco said, his eyes fixated on the screen.

Harry who was deeply concentrated and serious about the game had suddenly sprang up in hope when he found Draco and the two launched themselves on each other to ensue in a bloodbath.

"Almost!" Draco said through his teeth.

"Harry cut his arse up!" Ron yelled.

"Shut up!" Harry shouted back.

"And…here…you…GO! Yes! You're DONE and I won!" Draco said tossing his controller to the side and getting up to stretch his arms and back. Harry looked as if he had lost to Voldemort in the Great Battle. He was deeply disappointed and tossed his controller aside.

"But it was a fair game. You played quite well. Look at how much life I had left in me." Draco said pointing to the very slim margin that Harry could have beat him by.

"Yeah I guess but we'll have a rematch after we're finished eating." Harry said clapping Draco's hand.

"I bet if You-Know-Poo was here, he'd snog you to death Draco." Fred commented.

"Yes! Uncle Draco won!" little Arthur said squirming out of Bill's arms to run towards Draco who picked him up and clapped their hands together.

"All right, game's over hoo-haa, get your arses up." Jade said as everyone started to leave for upstairs. Draco smiled at Jade and took her hand, kissing it.

"How did I look slaying Potter and your brothers?" Draco asked seeing Jade smile.

"Very irritating. I could have been dancing naked and you wouldn't have noticed." Jade said seeing Draco cock his eyebrow.

"You sure about that?" Draco asked.

Fred gave a disgusted scoff and let Jade go. "I'll guard the door until you both are finished." Fred said leaving.

Jade giggled and turned to Draco who took her hand and followed Fred out the door. They walked towards the family room and saw everyone sitting around, talking to the Bailey's.

"Who are they again?" Draco asked Jade who furrowed her eyebrows at him.

"The Bailey's. Our neighbors? They live across the Carren's…seriously Draco did you not know?" Jade asked seeing him shake his head. Mr. Bailey looked up at Draco and Jade and smiled.

"There you are Draco!" Mr. Bailey said getting up.

"Good evening." Draco said shaking Mr. Bailey's hand firmly.

"Mrs. Bailey." Draco acknowledged taking her hand. Mrs. Bailey nodded curtly wondering why Draco Malfoy appeared to be warm all of a sudden. Last time she had ever spoke with him; he had slammed the door on her face rudely when she had given him a pie that she made a few years ago.

"Mr. and Mrs. Bailey, of course you've met my husband Draco. This is my entire family. That's my mother and father, that's Bill my eldest brother and you've met his wife Fleur Delacour." Jade said seeing the Bailey's look on with extreme surprise at the odd couple. Bill Weasley, whose face was marred by the werewolf attack he had suffered during a battle in their 6th year, in Hogwarts was married to Fleur Delacour, one of the most flawlessly beautiful women they had seen in their lives. Jade introduced Bill and Fleur's children Victoire, Dominique and Louis to the Bailey's who had politely curtseyed and greeted the Bailey's. Jade then introduced Charlie to the Bailey's, Fred and George and their wives Katie and Angelina.

"These are George and Angelina's children Roxanne and Arthur, named after our father." Jade said grinning when the children greeted the Baileys who were delighted to meet them.

"Toffee?" little Arthur asked holding out one of Fred and George's toffee that they had given Dudley that caused his tongue to swell and grow bigger than his fat and wide body.

"No!" Molly shrieked snatching the toffee from Mrs. Bailey's hand. Mrs. Bailey who couldn't have been more offended stood up to Molly to say something but Jade cut in.

"Never take what the kids offer you. Thank you Mum, you can sit back down now." Jade said. Mrs. Bailey puffed in anger and Jade sent little Arthur and Roxanne away.

"Aw, Mum spoils everything. It's ok son, next time." George said patting Arthur's arm. Jade quickly ran through the rest of her family and announced that dinner was ready.
