Hermione and the others laughed at that they remembered her telling them how she punched there now good friend in the nose and breaking it ''Harry, I totally agree with you there, Hermione and Helen is enough but add in the other females and well lets just say no body is safe.''

Helen slapped her husband around the head for that comment making the kids laugh at them ''So, then how did the Graduation ceremony go and what were the exams like''

Hermione sighed and explained everything that happened from the duel to the fight at the graduation ''However the Headmaster of the University couldn't' help but gush and point out how I am the only and first witch of my age to Graduate the place with the scores I received and the double Mastery with three degrees in major fields and in just one year and a bit.''

Helen and Richard were proud of their little girl she was so bright and intelligent ''So what's the plan now you are qualified''

Hermione shrugged ''I don't know but right now I plan and focussing on my kids and keeping them safe from any danger our world is still messed up.''

Richard and Helen nodded ''How is it dangerous isn't that guy gone now.''

''He is but there are still some of his followers about that might fancy taking a shot at Harry Potter and his Best friend Hermione Granger, I mean I was already attacked at the Uni like I told you and that ended up with my friend in hospital, all because a family member of a Death Eater had a grudge you can't be to careful.''

''Will it be safe for the kids then?'' Asked Helen worried.

Hermione sighed ''Personally and honestly I don't know it is very likely that someone will come looking and actually come out of hiding for they will be arrested so they wont chance it, and I have everyone else to help me with the kids including Harry.''

''Yeah we got Albus and the others from Hogwarts to help and support us, then there's our friend Draco's father he works in the ministry, not to mention we are friends with some Aurors they will have plenty of protection the four of us will.''

Harry said smiling ''But like Mione said I very much doubt that they will come causing trouble because they wont want to be caught we will most likely have the odd crack pot who thinks they can just take a shot like at the Uni but that would be all.''

''Oh well we all know that your both more than able to protect them, not forgetting their wizards also which means they should be around magic to understand it better they shouldn't' have to wait until there eleventh birthday like our Hermione had to'' Helen said smiling.

Hermione beamed at them ''The kids are going to be so happy, I know Harry has been very excited.''

Harry grinned ''What, I have never had a proper family until you guys and the kids that is, I mean Sirius died before I had the chance to get to know him properly.''

Hermione placed a hand on top of his arm ''And Sirius will be proud of you, and I know for a fact if he was still around that Matthew would follow in his footsteps and become a full time prankster.''

Harry smiled and chuckled as he thought of Sirius teaching Matthew all the tricks ''I guess, then again there is always Remus I'm sure he will be happy to make him a marauder.''

Hermione sighed ''Alas I'm afraid your right my son is going to be corrupted Hogwarts wont know what hit them''

Hermione along with everyone else laughed ''Oh mum look at Harry's tattoo''

Harry pulled his t-shirt down so they could see the tattoos they were a bit red but nothing a soothing charm wont help ''I will say that thank god I had magic.''

Richard smiled ''Those are perfectly fitting for the to horrors upstairs''

Harry smirked ''Yes I think so also, that's why I had them done''

''Well I think both yours and Hermione's are lovely, now I understand Lyra had her ears done like Matthew had is snake tattoo.''

Hermione chuckled ''Yes she had it done in Clair's, I bought her a few earrings as well so she got a nice collection so far, and I had no clue that Matthew had asked for it to be like he got it, I was expecting a small one not one like that, but he loves it and it is cool I must admit.''

''How long will it last.''

''Up to a month then it will fade, I could remove it before that however with magic but I have a feeling he wont want me to.'' Two and a half hours later saw two children rushing down the stairs with smiles on their faces when they saw their mother and uncle sat on the sofa.

Hermione spotted the look of relief flash through their eyes at seeing her there and felt guilty for being the cause of it ''Afternoon, and how are you feeling princess.''

''Your still here''

Hermione chuckled ''Yes, sweetheart Mummy is home for good, Mummy wont be leaving you again''

Lyra and Matthew walked over and sat down beside her ''Promise'' they said in unison.

Hermione kissed both on their heads ''I promise the war is over the good side won the bad side lost so now I am not going anywhere without you guys''

Hermione smiled ''Now are you both feeling more awake and how are you feeling Lyra.''

''I'm ok now mum, I don't' feel sick nor hot''

''I'm good mum I'm not sleepy anymore, can we watch some cartoons and then watch a Christmas film tonight with hot chocolate and marshmallows.''

Hermione chuckled ''I don't' see why not, however Nanny will have tea ready soon, it's six o'clock.''

Helen smiled ''Yes i am on my way out to dish it up so you along with your mother and Uncle can get a move on and into the kitchen.''

At the table Helen Granger was just placing the twins plates in front of them, she had done them sausage and chips while for herself, Richard, Harry and Hermione she made them all a mild curry with garlic bread, Richard and Harry had a bottle of beer while Helen and Hermione had a glass of Lambrini with their tea.

''Mmm this is lush mum'' Hermione said as she continued to eat the curry

''Yeah the curry is just right'' Harry said smiling as he dipped some of his Garlic bread into his curry.

Helen smiled ''Well I didn't' know what to cook, and decided to do a curry and tomorrow we could get a take out for tea and then have out Christmas Dinner Christmas Day.''

Hermione looked at Harry ''Well I'm happy to have a takeout tomorrow, Harry? Dad?''

Richard nodded ''Fine by me''

Harry smiled ''I'm just happy to be eating something and being with family and it's all the more better knowing were not being tracked so count me in.''

Everyone knew what Harry meant, they knew his Aunt and uncle were horrendous to him ''So what shall we have tomorrow.''

Matthew grinned ''Chinese''

''Chinese'' Lyra also confirmed

Hermione grinned ''Chinese''

Helen also agreed ''Chinese''

Harry looked thoughtful ''I fancy Pizza''

Richard shook his head ''Fine you guys have Chinese me and Harry will have Pizza''

Matthew looked up ''Can I have Pizza instead with Granddad and Uncle Harry.''

Helen smiled ''Fine, the boys can have Pizza while we will have a Chinese''

Hermione nodded and they all continued to eat there tea, she was looking forward to Christmas morning seeing the kids opening there presents it has been all she ever wished and it would be special for it could well be and most likely will be her daughters last Christmas.

Not many chapters left now and it will soon be Christmas Day and then before we know it the kids will be visiting their new home. Yayy
