The first trimester was over and Harry and Severus were excited to have their ultrasound. Blaise ad Draco had come to school that weekend to share the big news with the couple. It was the start of June and Hermione and Viktor were away in Bulgaria celebrating Hermione's graduation from law school. She and Draco had finally finished and while Draco would be working in corporate law with a major firm in the fall, Hermione was sill employed by Malfoy so she had a paid maternity leave. Harry had promised he would send an owl to Hermione when he found out the gender of his newest addition to the family.

Harry was so happy to have his dads and brother, sisters and brother in law with them. It seemed like a full room but Harry was happy to share the moment with the family this time. Robbie was probably the most exited. He had been told he would see the image of the baby and would get to know if it was a sister or brother.

Poppy smiled when she had Harry on the table and saw the family all around, Robbie sitting with his daddy on the bed. "Are we ready to start the test?"

Harry smiled and nodded. "Yes. This little man would like to know if he is getting the sister he is hoping for."

Though she knew it was true Poppy as she started the rest knew that it was not the proud big brother alone who wanted to know the gender of the baby. Or was hoping that the baby would be a little girl. She knew that Severus and Harry loved their little boy so much but they were definitely looking forward to a daughter. She knew with Draco and Blaise expecting a little girl they definitely had their hopes up higher then ever before.

The image appeared and the heart beat but Harry was confused when he looked at the image. "Do I see two.....?"

Poppy and smiled. "Two heads, yes, you have twins in you."

The news sent ripples through them. Twins were uncommon without fertility potions or a history of it in a family, even for female pregnancies. As far as they knew from the Snape/Prince and Potter family lines they had no history of it. Harry was in tears and Robbie was looking worried until his Papa explained his daddy was not having one but two children.

Poppy added. "Ad it looks like Robbie there will have a little brother and sister to play with. And they are both strong and developing well."

Harry clung to his husband. "One of both? We are going to have our pink finally. And another beautiful little boy like Robbie. This is amazing."

Severus felt the same way. He was ecstatic. He would love that little boy as madly as he loved Robbie but he was picturing holding a bundle of pink in his arms in six months and not one of his sisters in law or his niece. Having a two year old and twins would definitely keep them busy but they didn't care. They were just so excited about the news. They were in absolute heaven with the news that they were going to have twins.

Poppy made a number of copies. "I have a feeling these will all be needed. I have no doubt that the picture will spread across the UK in no time at all."

Severus laughed. "And Bulgaria. We promised Hermione and Viktor we would send them the news of the gender. We'll have to send one for them to believe."

As they were getting ready to go Harry could not believe this. He and his husband had been trying to decide on whether to stop at two or have three. It seems that fate had answered the debate for them. They definitely were happy with three. Well four. Jamie would always be their son and always be a part of them. Poppy made sure to give some new potions for she said that once Harry got further along in the pregnancy it would be a bit harder on his body to have twins. She warned there was a good chance with twins they might come a bit early but there was no reason to be concerned. She did not want Harry to be worried but after Robbie she knew he had to be prepared. Robbie was three weeks premature and had been fine. She was sure he would deliver healthy twins.

Draco hugged his brother. "You can never be out done could you? You decided that we stole the first granddaughter so you had to have twins for the spotlight."

Harry laughed and shrugged. "You know that since you're the better looking brother I needed to do something. Sorry but the Gods seem to be in my favour."

Sending an owl off to the Weasleys and to the Krums with a copy of the picture and the genders they asked Luna and Neville to join them for dinner. Everyone was so excited with the news of the twins. Lucius and Remus were even more intent on decorating their school and home nursery for them. They said with twins it would be double the work and they wanted to make them perfect like they did for Robbie. Not only because of the love behind it but also getting out of the baby shower as promised, Harry and Severus promised once again they were only too happy to let the dads have the nurseries to decorate.

Luna handed him a bag over dinner. "My father always told me that I had a bit of my mother's seer abilities but I must admit I was not sure which was needed."

Harry laughed when he took out two little stuffed bears, one in pink and one in blue. "And you did not just use a color changing spell?"

Shrugging Luna had to admit that he had an odd feeling but she had not been sure. And definitely not the genders. She thought she might need to use the spell for the colors but for some reason she had been confident that he was having twins. He told her that her father must have been right. When it came to male pregnancies with no family history, most people would never have suspected twins. Harry and his husband had not even decided on one set of godparents but now two? Draco and Hermione were for Robbie so far. Harry thought they would likely look to the Weasleys for at least one baby. He was thinking one of the twins likely.

Harry looked at his son as he put him down to bed later that night. "Three little crib dwellers by Christmas time; we're going to need more house elves."

His husband put an arm around him and kissed him tenderly, "You know we will have all the help we need of human and elf form. I promise."

Harry knew his husband was right and he could not wait to have the babies in his arms. He knew Robbie would make such a cute big brother. And he could not wait to see Severus holding their daughter in his arms. There was no doubt that she would have her Papa absolutely wrapped about her baby finger from birth. Though Severus was thinking the same thing about her daddy. And neither was probably wrong about that. By Christmas their family would be complete. Harry had made sure to send word to his Aunt as well for he knew she and Dudley would be over the moon with the news as well.

Hermione and Viktor was the first to deliver from among the pregnant trio. Hermione had worked with Malfoy right up until the end of July. A week after Harry's twenty first and Dante's second birthday, Hermione had gone into labour. Hermione had definitely had quite the time of being pregnant. Her husband had spent quite a lot of time on the couch. Harry thought there was a good chance that there would be a few years between their children. Hermione had all of the symptoms that Harry had with Robbie but she made Harry's second pregnancy look as easy as his current one had been. The twins had continued to be easy womb dwellers for him.

Harry was happy when he arrived at the hospital and Draco called. "You missed the birth but Hermione and Viktor are taking some alone time to bond."

Harry laughed and hugged his brother and Blaise. Blaise was over eight months pregnant and glowing. "It will be the two of you in here in a few weeks time."

Smiling Blaise nodded. Dante was playing with some blocks on the ground and Severus put Robbie down with him. Dante was as excited about his little sister as Robbie was about having a sister and a brother. Dante had actually according to his grandfathers, helped to decorate the nursery. They had given the same gift to Draco and Blaise as to Harry and Severus of decorating their nursery for them. The nurseries were all warded so they could not see till the babies came home.

Jean Granger came over with a huge smile and hugged him. "You have definitely grown Harry. Hermione told us the amazing news that it is twins."

Harry smiled with his hand resting against his belly. "One boy and one girl. It still amazes me some times. I am sure you two are in heaven."

The Krums and Grangers were both biting at the chomp to go in and see their first born grandchild. They had been happy for a boy or girl as long as they were healthy. Harry knew that if Viktor got a little girl one day he would love her and be wrapped probably but unlike Severus and Harry he was one of those men who had always wanted a son. He had so excited to learn his wife was having a little boy. Hermione was just happy her little baby was healthy and strong. They eventually were ushered into the room where the happy couple was both in the bed and the baby was cradled in Viktor's arms.

Hermione looked up at her parents and in laws though she also smiled at her friends. "Come and meet your precious new grandson."

Mrs Krum took the baby though he soon was passed between the grandparents. "He is so beautiful. He looks almost identical to you Viktor when born."

Looking down at his new godson as his husband was signing the forms, Harry had to admit that she was right. The baby definitely looked like Viktor. He had the same features and even hair color. The only thing which was not his dad was his beautiful caramel eyes which came from his mother as Viktor had blue. Harry was finally handed the baby after he finished signing the forms though the grandparents were nearly as reluctant to hand the baby over as the parents had been.

Harry looked at the baby and up at his sister. "My nephew is quite the beautiful little looker here. Does he have a name?"

Viktor did the honours in introducing his son. "We have decided to name our beautiful little boy Noah Viktor Krum."

Before she found out she was a witch Hermione had grown up in the Christian tradition though her family was never very religious. Viktor and her had considered a number of names and she had suggested Noah as she was reminded of Viktor coming to Hogwarts on the boat from Durmstang. The name also meant peace and they thought it was an honour to Hermione who was becoming an attorney to keep he peace. They decided to go with tradition and give their first born son his father's name for a middle name. The name brought a number of smiles in the room especially to Hermione's parents who were still Christian.

Hermione was handed her little boy back. "I am kind of hoping his name inspires his personality. He has not given me much peace when he was inside of me."

Viktor's mother smiled and shook her head. "If he is anything like his daddy I wouldn't be counting on it. Viktor did not give us much rest when he was first born."

Seeing her daughter's reaction Jean quickly reminded her though the baby looked like the proud daddy he would not automatically take after Viktor. And she had always been a very sweet tempered baby and had never been too much. Looking down at his own belly Harry wondered about the twins. Robbie was so sweet tempered unlike Dante who had been one to keep his dads up. Harry would only start to imagine what the twins' personalities would be like.

Harry handed Viktor a gift before they left of a little toy snitch. "Have to get my little godson started from the cradle I think."

Viktor laughed and clapped him on the back. "With a father and a godfather who were both star quidditch players, I have no doubt he will be quite the player."

Though Hermione thanked him for the gift she groaned a bit and told him to stop trying to convert her son from the crib. The baby was half hers like her mother had said and she had never liked to be in the air. She was scared of heights and refused to this day to let her husband take her up with him. It had often made Harry laugh to think she had married a retired professional quidditch star turned correspondent for a news magazine when she would not leave the ground three feet on a broom.

Jean looked at her grandson. "I tent o agree with my daughter. My grandson should not be flying on anything but an airplane until he is at least five."

Viktor shared a look with Harry. "I guess that the godfather can not purchase him a baby broom and will have to wait for a kiddie broom."

That was met with laughter for they knew there was no chance. Harry had already bought Dante his broom and Robbie got one from Draco. He would wait as they had with the boys and give it to Noah as a first birthday gift. He planned on getting his daughter one. Some of the best quidditch layers were of course female.

Hermione looked at Blaise. "Now we need to get your little one out and see if Noah likes his future little girlfriend in there."

It did not seem like Noah would have long to wait for it seemed that Robbie was no the only early bloomer in the family. Dante had been a bit early but Blaise went into labour only two weeks after Hermione had given birth to her son. Harry was with his brother and brother in law this time in the delivery room. He was so excited for his new little niece to come. They knew their dads and sisters were in the waiting room. The entire family was over the moon about their first touches of pink.

Blaise looked at his husband after another contraction. "You better be glad with two because you are never touching me. You are moving to a new bedroom."

Draco kissed his husband on the head. "You said that with Dante my love. Remember what the pain is for. Keep picturing our beautiful little girl in there."

Remembering when the two had got together Harry smiled. He still thought to this day he was to thank for them getting together. Draco had not even come out of the closet until Harry had convinced him to. He was still faking dating pansy. Now Pansy and her husband Markus who were expecting their first born in March, were about to be godparents to this little one. Pansy and Draco had remained so close even after they broke up and Pansy had been honoured to be asked this time.

The healer looked up. "Well this little one is on her way so we are going to get you to start pushing Blaise and you will soon have your daughter in your arms."

Harry held his hand as well. "You have me and Draco and I agree you make my brother sleep on the couch though for a few months. Now come on and push."

Draco shot his brother a nasty look but he was reminded of what it had been meant to do and Blaise clung to both of them and began to push. He pushed through a series of contractions before a beautiful little baby girl came free. The room filled with her cries and Draco and Blaise were both in tears. Blaise went to cut the cord and when he came back with her there was no doubt she was a Malfoy except for Blaise's eyes. She was such a beauty.

Harry bent and kissed his niece. "I am going outside to tell everyone the news and give the three of you some time to bond."

Draco squeezed his arm. "Thank you for being in here with us. You know how much it has meant to both of us to have you here through this."

Reminding them they would be repaying the favour soon enough he would not have had it any other way. He was more then happy to share the news with his fathers, sisters, Dante, his husband and Robbie. Hermione and Viktor were there as well as Pansy and Marcus. They waited about an hour before they descended back in and Harry got to be the first to hold her though as Marcus and Pansy signed forms but he was soon forced to pass her around.

Lucius was the one who asked when he held his first granddaughter cradled in his arms. "And what name do we have for our first granddaughter."

Blaise introduced his daughter. "We have decided to continue unique names like Dante. We have named our little girl is Austen Leda Malfoy-Zaibini."

Draco kissed his daughter. "Like Dante, Austen is in part named for a famous writer in her case Jane Austen. And Leda is a moon of Jupiter for the Blacks."

They had decided that they would continue the literary tradition of names. The Malfoys had created a new family tradition without thinking when both Emilia and Bianca were named for Shakespearean characters. Then Dante for a writer and Robbie for a poet. Now Austin for Jane Austin. Of course a moon carried on the Black tradition for Draco's mother was a Black and Harry was Lord Black.

Author note: Noah Viktor Krum: Noah (Hebrew) peace for the biblical character with the arc, Hermione has Christian roots, liked name and reminded them of the boat Viktor came to Hogwarts on. Viktor (Latin) conqueror carries on old tradition of first borns with the father's name as middle name.

Austen Leda Malfoy-Zaibini: Austen (Latin) great. Named in honour of writer Jane Austen for brother is for Dante who wrote the Inferno. (Malfoys created their own tradition, literary names with two Shakespearean characters, a poet in Robbie and Dante, now her), Leda (Greek) means lady, is a moon of Jupiter for the Black tradition and is also the mother of Helen of Troy, was raped by Zeus in the form of a swan.
