Hermione heard her daughter giggling as she approached the bedroom for story time. When she opened the door, she found her child in bed around with the covers pulled up to her ears, which was very unusual.

Samantha continued to giggle.

"What are you hiding?" Hermione asked. She kept her tone playful, though she really was curious.

"Nothing," Samantha said, then giggled again.

Hermione walked over and flipped the covers back with a quick tug. Samantha was practically laying on a bed of sweets. And still giggling.

"And who is responsible for all of this?" Hermione asked. She knew the answer but she wanted to hear her daughter admit to her co-conspirator.

Samantha mumbled through her smile, "Uncle Gabriel."

Hermione did her darndest to keep a grin off her face. "And what did you do to receive such a reward?"

"Helped him get Daddy's shampoo and then take it back after he did something to it."

Hermione tried not to roll her eyes. The prank war going on between the men of the family was getting a bit out of hand now if Gabriel had involved Samantha. She sighed and conjured a bucket then swept her wand at all the sweets on the bed. They flew up and out from under Samantha and into the bucket. "Did you eat any after you brushed your teeth?"

The mischievous giggling had slowed but now disappeared completely. "No, Mum."

Hermione was proud of her little girl. "Thank you for not lying to me. You can have some of the sweets tomorrow, alright?" She tucked her child in and took the bucket of sweets with her to the living room.

Interestingly enough, all four of the pranksters were there watching a movie. She tossed the stash of sweets on the coffee table in front of them. Addressing all four, she said, "Keep Samantha out of your pranks, gentlemen."

It shouldn't have come as a shock to see Sam, Dean, and Castiel look a little guilty. Gabriel just grinned and grabbed a sweet from the bucket.
