Chapter 44

A Return to Hogwarts

September 1, 1996

Because having all of those babies on the train was too much, the student parents with infants were allowed to floo to Hogwarts.

Not wanting the brave the train or the public outside the hospital, Blaise and Adrian flooed to Hogwarts soon after George’s delivery of Nixie and Gail.

There was at least one fireplace in the House Common rooms that was hooked up temporarily to the Floo Network at Headmaster Flitwick’s request as well as the apartments to St. Mungos’ so it wasn’t very difficult to floo to their apartment after arriving in Slytherin if they wanted to.

Their school apartment was accessible via a portrait of Elizabeth Burke and just down to the dungeon corridor from the hidden entrance to the Slytherin Common room.

On his trip to Charlene’s to pick up the milk expresser, Adrian had paid for a duplicate set of nursery furniture that he had set up by his elves exactly as Blaise had insisted on having in the nursery at Violet Vale.

The elves had already unpacked their trunks filling their wardrobes as well as the twin’s dresser with clothes and plenty of nappies.

As well as infant pain relievers, sleeping draughts, fever reducers, cold remedy and flu draughts and just about anything potions-wise they could need for babies and even Blaise who was nursing.

Blaise was just starting to regain his natural body shape, losing the pregnancy weight which made his bonded happy. The cesarean scar was fading and Blaise used copious amounts of scar reducer balm to get rid of both it and the stretch marks.

Adrian loved him no matter what but that was that.

They had settled in having lunch together in private.

It wasn’t until near dinner time that Blaise dressed in his school uniform, strapping Enzo to his chest and covering him with his Slytherin robes.

Because Adrian had graduated, he had on more relaxed attire which consisted of crisp black slacks, a violet long-sleeve dress shirt due to the brisk weather and his most comfortable shoes. He strapped Abry to his chest and wrapped an arm around Blaise’s waist to escort him to the Great Hall.

They met Giselle whose gently swelling stomach added to her aura of contentment while Millie had their hands linked together, Draco and Harry had a twin each and they too had linked hands, but Greg wasn’t there nor was Vince.

The party made their way to the first floor and found Vince coming down the Great Staircase with Pansy, Mal and Greg right behind him as well as numerous other students who had either babies or very pregnant stomachs.

The Great Hall was mostly empty but there were far more professors then usual on the dais; Dumbledore was absent of course and in his place was Professor Flitwick. Hagrid wasn’t there yet but Professor McGonagall who looked extremely pale was which was odd was.

Harry joined them in claiming seats at Slytherin suprisingly enough.

The married with babies or expecting couples took seats together with Susan Bones shyly leading a Gryffindor over to the Hufflepuff table while Mandy Brocklehurt and Glais Ollivander sat at Ravenclaw. Luna was at Gryffindor with Neville and their twins Lysander and Lorcan, while a pouting pregnant Ginny shoved Michael Corner out of her way and sat by herself at Gryffindor.

Lavender tried to gently nudge Ron to sit with Neville, Luna, Pavarti, Dean, Seamus and Colin only to have him storm away from her to sit with Ginny.

Padma and Su Li sat with Cho and Rodger as well as Marietta and Marcus Belby while Katie Bell had Leanne with her at Gryffindor.

There were graduated students at three House tables: Rodger Davies and Gemma Farley at Ravenclaw, Adrian at Slytherin and Tamsym Inglebee at Hufflepuff but there were no graduated students sitting with the Gryffindors surprisingly enough.

Seeing one of his fellow prefects who graduated last June seated up at the professors’ table was surprising, it was Deb Smith…

There was a slightly familiar witch sitting beside former Head Girl, Penelope Clearwater, Adrian was almost certain that she was one of the witches from Beauxbatons. What was she doing here he wondered.

Snape was back but was seated next to Flitwick in McGonagall’s usual seat while McGonagall was further down the table.

Pretty soon the non-expectant and current parents entered the Great Hall and began filling the tables and the noise level quadrupled which sent the babies wailing…

Adrian cast a muffling charm around their circle; both Draco, Harry and Blaise gave him wane smiles of gratitude while they and Adrian went to soothe the unhappy infants.

Once the current students were all seated, the Head of Slytherin House and now Deputy Headmaster slipped out through the anti-chamber behind the dais to fetch the First Years for Sorting.

Was it presumptuous to say that there was something so right about the Head of Slytherin being Deputy Headmaster?

Flitwick rose, “Welcome back to a new year at Hogwarts and the beginning of a new era of leadership. My name for those of you who have forgotten is Philip Gorlois Flitwick but I prefer to be called 'Filius'. I am your new Headmaster; I would like to welcome you and our First Years to Hogwarts.”

Professor Snape led in the First Years just as Filch set down the stool and Sorting hat.

“This is my Deputy Headmaster Severus Prince, yes he was previously Professor Snape but he has accepted the title from his maternal family when he was bonded. So please address him as Professor Prince. Now the Sorting will begin.”

From their side of the Great Hall, Mal and Dean waited impatiently to see where their siblings Mark and Dana were sorted.

Unfortunately Prewett and Thomas were rather far down the list…

Snap…no Professor Prince finally called out. “Mark Prewett.”

Dean, Neville and Seamus whistled at him while Mal watched frowning.

Mark stepped forward and placed the worn Sorting hat on his head.

There was some silence before it announced, “Ravenclaw!”

There was some stillness before Luna bounced up, “Come on then.” She swished her hand and the hat floated to Professor Prince even as she held out her hand to Mark.

The boy blushed fiercely.

Luna tugged him over to Ravenclaw to introduce him to her House, whispering, “Hi, Luna Lovegood. You are at Deerfield when Pavarti arrived. I’m a prefect this year. Come find me if you have questions. She pushed him towards her cousin Maia, “Maia look after him would you?”

The tacturn Slytherin rolled her eyes, “Alright cousin.”

The Sorting had gone on as usual despite Luna’s departure from the norm but that was her way.

It wasn’t a surprise when Dean’s sister Dana was called up and sorted in Ravenclaw as well.

Luna skipped forward to greet her and led her over to Ravenclaw to sit with Mark.

After the last First Year was Sorted, Headmaster Flitwick rose again.

“I am not the only change in staff this year. Minerva stepped down as Deputy Headmistress but still retains her Headship of Gryffindor and teaching OWL and NEWT Transfiguration. Pomona is still Head of Hufflepuff but chose to teach Herbology only to the First through Fourth Years.”

Blaise noticed that Harry frowned; he had heard that Longbottom was close to Sprout and had been contemplating entering an apprenticeship with her.

“My replacement as Head of Ravenclaw is Septima Vector who teaches Arithmancy, Bathsheba Babbling with continue to teach Ancient Runes. Charlie Weasley has agreed to teach Care of Magical Creatures, his sister-in-law Fleur Delacour will be tutoring a select number of Seventh Years in core subjects, former Head Girl Penelope Clearwater will be teaching Charms to the Third and Fourth Years, while Audrey Ollivander will teach the First and Second Years Charms.” Flitwick continued.

As each professor was announced they rose to bow or curtsy.

“Nymphadora Tonks is on loan from the Auror Department to teach elementary defence; while her mother Andromeda Black-Tonks will teach Birthing, healing for Parents as well as Introductory Healing. Jointly she will be handling the Infirmary with Niles Martin. Niles’ bondmate David will be joining our staff as a Mind Healer, yes he has been informed as to the traumatic events at Hogwarts over the last few years and promised to look after us. Also assisting Healer Andromeda are Mediwitch Aednat McCullum and her apprentice Deborah Smith, Auror Tonks’ bondmate.”

Mal noticed that Auror Tonks stiffened and Healing Apprentice Smith’s eyes turned to the floor when they were announced as bonded. Now she was really feeling guilty for her happiness…

There was another Herbology Professor introduced, an Alger Wood who had Neville sputtering in surprise. There were two new History of Magic Professors Fiona and Fontaine Fortescue who seemed to be father and daughter given their appearance which could be deceiving. Fiona was introduced as the Pre-Owl History Professor while Fontaine was teaching the OWL and NEWT students. An Ethan Bones, like Susan’s father was to teach the First through Fourth Years Transfiguration. Potions was likewise divided with a Damocles Martin teaching the OWL and NEWT students, leaving a Horace Slughorn to teach the younger years.

That seemed as if it were the last of the staff announcements until

Michael’s stepmother entered, “I am sorry I am late Headmaster, we were just seeing to the last of the alterations.”

Flitwick nodded, “May I introduce the Head of Hogwarts’ Nursery, Gwen Ollivander-Corner. These are her assistants. Gemma Farley, Tamsym Inglebee, Grant Page and Felicity Stretton.”

Now they were invited to eat and given a final welcome to Hogwarts…

The nursing and pregnant students were practically famished by the time the food appeared steaming on the shining gold plates.

“Finally!” Blaise and Draco’s ears twitched as Ron grumbled, “Long-winded old fool.”

Lavender appeared to be trying to make herself as small as possible.

Hermione had finally arrived; Harry was surprised when she sat with Lavender and the others.

But he was soon distracted by his own gnawing hunger.

Draco ignored the other Slytherins while unselfconscious doting on him, eating with one hand while feeding Scorpius a bottle with the other.

Adrian was doing the same as were Harry and himself, as far as Blaise could tell they had the only babies at Slytherin thus far…

Blaise was soon sleepily so Draco dismissed him promising to see him at breakfast.

Blaise felt a bit guilty as he was tucked into bed and dressed with a spell by his mate.

Adrian ruffled his hair before heading to put Abry and Enzo to bed.

Classes would start tomorrow because it was a Sunday tonight…

Blaise felt more at ease with the idea of Adrian looking after their babies than leaving them in a nursery with persons he wasn’t sure of…

He quickly fell asleep…

What do you think? Outstanding? Exceeds Expectations? Acceptable? Poor? Dreadful? Troll?
