"But I'm not hungry! I don't want oaty-meal. You can't make me!" Jayden screamed before his mother crashed an oatmeal filled spoon into his open mouth. He glared at her. As meanly as a 3 year old could.
Draco played with his bacon and eggs nonchalantly. Potter could come in at any moment. He could come and ruin my life at any moment, he thought. The fact that his life was in Harry Potter's hands didn't make him feel too good. He picked up the kitchen knife and twirled it with his fingers.
"Draco, put that knife away, there are children in the room." Narcissa said as she fed soothed Logan, who had begun crying.
"What can I say, Mother. I just love the feeling of a knife in my hands. I like the power, you know?" he smirked at his mother. She smiled sarcastically, and then turned around to face Sidney who was whining about something or other. Draco yawned. Sidney woke him up early. And by the time Draco woke up, Sidney had forgotten what he needed.
"Good morning, family!" Blaise strolled in with a bright smile on his face. He had always been a morning person. Unlike Draco, who felt more at home at midnight, Blaise did is best at the crack of dawn. And by the looks of it, Blaise had been up since dawn. "I had a walk-oh no thank you Aunt Cissy I already had breakfast- around the small muggle town a bit south of here. And there was a wonderful little pancake restaurant. They had the most delicious pancakes I have ever eaten." Blaise took an animal cracker from the bowl in the middle of the table.
"Ugh, Blaise your happy mood is really bringing me down." Theo complained as he entered the room.
"Yeah, I just can't understand how you can be so damned happy all the time. It isn't normal." Draco said, taking a bite from his breakfast before pushing it away from him. Dino and Sidney immediately pounced on the plate. The fact that Draco left all of his bacon appealed to them.
"I just don't see a reason to be upset. It's not my fault that you guys are naturally angry people. I suggest getting laid, or in Theo's case, finding other uses for his right hand-"
"Blaise! That is no way to speak around children!" Natasha said, feeding Jaylen her oatmeal. She was going to continue when an owl swooped into the kitchen from an open window. Lucius put down the Prophet he was reading to give the owl a treat and untie the letter from its leg. With his old age, Lucius had to start using reading glasses. Draco had to admit, his father always looked like a natural aristocrat, but with the glasses and silver mixed with his blond hair, he looked even more sophisticated.
"It's a letter from the Blacks. They passed their damn inspection, and they want to help us. Your cousins Cissy. The older ones…" Lucius told them. Narcissa nodded.
"And? What are you going to write back?" Draco asked, leaning in.
"I'm going to say 'thank you, but no thanks.' We do have this all under control." Lucius answered, his quill already starting the letter.
Draco laughed. "Pride is a sin, father." he smirked, "and there's no pride worse than the pride of a pureblood." Blaise scoffed.
"Speak for yourself, Malfoy, I'm not that proud." Draco smirked.
"Yet, you've got an ego the size of Eastern Europe." Blaise threw a pastry at him, and missed. "Gee Zabini, with that aim, it's a surprise you don't play Quidditch."
"And, Draco, with that amazing eye you've got, it's a surprise you haven't beat Potter yet." Lucius chocked, while Theo hooted with laughter. "Don't laugh, Nott. The only person worse than you at keeping is Weasley. And that's just barely." Draco smiled. His friend always knew which wound to rub salt on in people. He always had that annoying habit of pointing out your flaws.
"Boys, we're having a nice family breakfast. Can't you, I don't know, act your age for a change?" Narcissa said with her hands on her hips. Logan giggled.
"That rhymed, mummy!" he exclaimed clapping his hands. Draco rolled his eyes, what he would give to have this boy out of his life for a day.

"Don't you think you should knock first, Harry? I don't know why you insist on coming to early. They're probably having breakfast right now." Hermione said, crossing her hands.
"Yeah, an evil breakfast." Ron retorted. Hermione rolled her eyes.
"Of course, their bagels are out to rule the world, they are." Hermione said with a snort. Just as Ron opened his mouth Harry held a hand up to silence him.
"I just wanted to element of surprise, okay?" Harry thought for a second. "And I will not knock! Take the door down!" he ordered to the nameless, faceless aurors.

"What the hell?" Draco said, standing up, along with his father. Lucius took 3 long strides to the entrance, to witness the demolishing of his front door.
"Just what do you think you're doing, Potter? Have you no-" Harry cut Lucius off, handing him a paper stating their right on his property.
"Save it, Malfoy. We got it signed by Madam Bones. Any complaints? Talk it up with her." Harry walked past him and into the kitchen, where the rest of the family waited. "Well, you got visitors I see. Well, no matter. We'll just have a look-OW!" Harry held his leg up to nurse his now bruised shin. He looked down to see the pale, blond head of Logan Malfoy.
"My Auntie said that-you-are-a-stupid-stupid-boy." he said, rushed. Narcissa pulled him back, holding his head to her bosom (hehe). But Harry just smiled.
"Really? Who is your Auntie?" he asked, too sweetly. He looked a bit evil.
"I have two! Aunt Natie-asha, and Aunt Jackie." Logan smiled brightly, coming out of his mothers' embrace. Harry nodded and jotted some things down in his notebook. He looked around the kitchen, and his eyes landed on the knife on the table. Draco mentally hit himself for not putting it away like his mother told him too. Hermione smiled at two toddlers, who looked like twins. They both had short black hair, and tan skin. The little girl had on a simple white child's dress, and the little boy had on shorts and a red jersey with a white 3 on it. And as far as she could tell, on the back it also had a white J and on the top it said JAYDEN. Harry noticed her staring at them, and noted that they both looked pretty dirty.
"I feel kinda weird. All these lido kids just staring at me." Ginny whispered to her. Hermione nodded. She could feel the heat of someone's stare. She looked around and saw Draco Malfoy staring at her. If looks could kill, Hermione would be fearing her life. Ron was edging back towards the front door, obviously uncomfortable with the situation. But Harry just nodded and kept smiling. At this point, none of them were thing of the plan they had come up with the day before. The silence was killing her before-
"Potter, either charge us with something, or get out." Blaise said. Harry stared him down, challenging him. Blaise just stared back, with a blank expression, hiding the fear that was slowly making its way up his throat.
"Okay, I've made a decision," Harry said, surprising every one, "I see that none of you are fit to care for children-"
"What!" Natasha exclaimed, outraged. Harry just continued.
"-and the only thing I can do, as a responsible ministry official is take every child under the age of 15 back to-"
"You can't do that Potter!" Lucius yelled. Harry held up a hand of silence.
"I can. I will. And I am." he made a motion for the aurors to collect the children. He turned around before a hand shot out, grabbing his arm.
"Potter, I'll give you a deal. All my money, take it, but you just ca-cant ta-take my children, Potter. You ca-cant!" Narcissa pleaded. Harry just shook his head and walked away.
Hermione tried to pick up the twins that were next to her before Ms. Zabini pushed her hand away. Natasha knelt down and hugged the twins and two other kids to her chest. She kept repeating Jayden, Jaylen, Leo, Dino over and over again. Hermione tried and tried again to pull her away gently, but her grip on the children were too tight.
"I'll give you everything I own. Everything. My house, my money, please. You just don't understand. They need me. Their my children. I just can't live with out-" her voice cracked and tears slide down her face. Hermione bent down and whispered in her ear.
"I'll keep them safe. I'll look after them myself. And you'll get them back, I promise you. Take my card…" she slipped the small card into the woman's hands. Natasha looked up at her, defeated, and handed over her children.

"I'll kill him." Draco walked around the kitchen table, and right when he was within punching distance, his father stopped him. Draco looked at him, enraged, but them he softened, noticing the tears going down the down olds cheek.
"I lost, Draco. I let him beat me. I prepared for everything in case Potter look I or your mother away, but I never thought that he would-" Lucius stopped, pinching his eyes to stop the overflow of tears. Draco was at lost. He looked over to Jackie. She and her husband were holding Olivia and Isabella like they were providing them with air. Viviana was trying to soothe her mother, who was trying to fit her four youngest children in her thin arms. And his mother… Logan, who didn't even know what was going on, was asking his mother what was happening as the auror tore him and Sidney from her arms. Naomi hugged Lucius before walking to the closest auror. And then suddenly-
"Drake-yyyyyyyyyy!" Logan made a mad dash for his brother. Draco opened his arms as his brother crashed into his chest. "I don't wanna go…"
"Potter…" Draco looked at Harry to see if there was any sign of remorse in his eyes. And all he saw was pure hate. Reluctantly, Draco ripped Logan from his embrace, and handed him to Potter. And Harry carried him away like a sack of rice.

A/N: I had to make Lucius cry! I just had to!
I hope it wasn't too much. O.o
