Shopping.
Hermione woke first; looking down, she saw Harry there still snuggled in to, hugging tightly into her; she slid out of bed and went to the bathroom; she had a quick shower getting ready, and he threw her air up, leaving. She heard muffled crying running out. She saw Harry crying on the bed.
"Oh, Harry darling, what's wrong? I am here, baby."
"Mi not leave Arry." his lip pouted out as he sniffled.
"Oh no, I am sorry, Darling, I am not leaving you. We are shopping today and will visit two people who have missed you." She spoke as she walked across the room, picking Harry up and tickling her belly.
"See Arry." The boy seemed shocked that there were people who wanted to see him. Hermione smiled, carrying over to the photo on the side; as she picked it up, she couldn't help but laugh at the picture of Remus and Sirius smiling and then pulling faces at them.
"This one is your Uncle Padfoot, and this is your Uncle Moony. "Harry looked at the food, giggling at the men pulling faces. Harry points to Sirius
"Unwle Adfoot and Unwle Oony."
Hermione nodded as she watched Harry look at the picture more, tilting his head side to side.
Tears gone and breakfast eaten, Hermione got Harry ready in some clothes the elves brought her, one being a coat to warp Harry up.
Dumbledore met the pair by the gate. He watched as Hermione held Harry's hand as they walked; he saw Harry giggling as he stepped in the snow, and he watched Hermione playing with him as they walked; at that moment, he knew that she was the best person to look after him.
"Good morning, Miss Granger and Mr Potter. Are you enjoying the snow? "
Harry looked up at the man and smiled with his pacifier in his mouth as he did a little dance with his feet.
Once they are seated in the carriage, Dumbledore watches as Harry. Snuggled into Hermione as he babbled away to her about the snow, he had a small train in his hand.
" I have informed the order about Harry; Molly wanted to take him." he paused Harry with tears as he got closer to Hermione.
"But I told her that he would be staying with you, Miss Granger, that if you need a hand, you will reach out, but you make the final say for him. Sirius and Remus agreed that it was for the best as long as they got to see Harry."
" I was thinking of taking him to see them after shopping." Dumbledore smiled, nodding.
"Arry, stay with Mia." his voice was shaky as he looked at the old man before him.
"Of course, you're staying with me. You're my favourite boy." Hermione tickled Harry, causing his laughs to fill the air as he wiggled and kicked his little legs.
Once in Hogsmeade, they head straight to get a buggy. Harry held Hermione's hand, walking for a bit; it took them much longer to get there. Once inside, Hermione looked around for the perfect one.
"Hi, is there anything specific you're looking for today?" A shopkeeper spoke, giving Hermione and Harry a warm smile.
"Oh yes, please. I need a buggy for this one. "
The women looked down as Harry tried to hide in Hermione's robes.
"Well, aren't you cute? Now, I suggest this one here. It's the best buggies we have got. It comes with a warming and cooling charm depending on the weather; it is waterproof and has protective charms. "
Hermione looked over the pram. It was the best one for Harry; it also looked so soft for him. But she caught the price tag before she could say anything.
" Yes, well, shall take it. Thank you. " Dumbledore spoke as he stood not too far behind her.
"Perfect, I will get it ready for you. I assume you will use it now." With a nod from Hermione, the women went to work. Hermione then tucked Harry into his new buggy with a smile as he wiggled, letting out a happy sigh as he got comfy.
Next up was to get some clothing and a bed for Harry—they were leaving toys for last. Hermione could not help but smile as she saw some tiny baby robes. She couldn't help but coo at the little shoes. There was what could be considered more muggle-styled clothing as well. Hermione went around collecting a handful of outfits. Grab some cute socks with different animals and some brooms. There were many different onesies; Harry seemed to love the ones with Hippogriffs all over them, and he kept showing Hermione when he found a new Hippogriff on the onesie. Hermione also added a toddler set to the bundle, which included bibs. Some toddler towels had a hood.
"We don't need to get too much; tomorrow, I could meet with my parents and get Harry some muggle clothing. Padfoot and Moony could join us.
"Unwle Adfoot and Unwle Oony." Little Harry smiled at the mention of the men. Hermione tickled his belly. "That's right, little man."
"That sounds like a great idea; I look forward to seeing what you manage to get; now, let's get this paid for you and order a bed set for him as well."
Dumbledore smiled as he walked towards the checkout.
"oh, Hello, Headmaster. Is this all for you today."
"Hello, Miss Weatherston, no, I would like to order the best Bedroom set you have for this little one, with a bed, please." Harry peaked up from his hold on his new onesie as he looked at Dumbledore when he mentioned a bed for Harry.
"Your bed would be in the same room as Hermione, if that's okay, Harry."
Harry was quick to nod his head.
Next was the toy shop; Hermione took Harry out of his buggy, and they went into the toy shop; she watched as Harry's eyes widened, and then he looked sad.
"OH, Harry, we are here for you; you get to pick out some toys."
"Toys for Arry, but Arry is not good."
"Oh yes, you are a good boy, Harry, and that's why you get toys; okay, how about we have a look, yeah." Harry nodded as he looked around but quickly got involved and ran to a train set. The adults watched as he ran from different toys. They took notes on the ones he seemed to enjoy. Harry dragged Hermione over to show her some teddys.
"Oh, they look lovely. What ones do you like, Darling."
Harry then went and collected one teddy at a time. After he was done, Hermione had about four teddies before her. Hermione could not help but smile. They already had a bunch of toys ordered from him, a toy train set where the train let out smoke, moved and made sounds; they got him a beginner stitch set. Some building blocks he was playing with, and now the teddies. Once Harry saw what was happening, he couldn't help but cry, shaking his head as he buried his head into Hermione's let.
Picking him up and holding him close, Hermione gave him his dummy; once at the checkout, the women pointed out their newest dummies. Dumbledore added that to the other stuff they had bought.
"So, it's okay, Harry. Let's get you home, huh? We can have lunch, and maybe Uncle Padfoot and Moony can visit for lunch." All she got was Harry nodding against her neck. Looking over at Dumbledore as he gave her a nod, they headed toward the carriage as Dumbledore pushed the buggy; once in the car, Dumbledore handed the Hippogriff teddy Harry picked out to Hermione. Who then handed Harry the teddy, holding it close to him. She then swapped out his old dummies for one of the new ones they had gotten him.
"I think it would be best from Remus and Sirius come to our room, I don't trust that house, Headmaster the portrait but there is also Kreachter." Hermione spoke as she rocked Harry.
"Yes very well, I shall send for them once we are."
Hermione was shocked that the room had to be rearranged once she returned. There was a new bed, wardrobe, chest of drawers, toy box, and some shelves on the wall; it was clear that was Harry's area. It was open to ensure Harry didn't think it was a cupboard.
Harry's eyes widened in surprise as he saw his new room. He clutched his teddy bear tightly. He glanced at Hermione, his face a mix of excitement and shyness, before burying his face in his teddy bear.
"Oh darling, I know it has been very hard on you this morning, but that is your room, Harry. That is your part of the room; it is all for you."
"No Upboard, I get a bed."
"No cupboard ever again; I promise you, Harry, would you like to see your room." all she got was a nod as he held on to her tighter. Hermione walked over to Harry's new area; there was a large bed but nothing on the sides. It was wooden, and on the headboard, it had different fantasy creatures carved onto it. He had a small chest of drawers that matched and a lovely toy chest at the end of the bed, but most importantly, there was a small bookcase with some books already there. Hermione noticed that in the living area, there were a few small bean bag chairs on the floor, and there was a children's table where Harry could eat. Harry's eyes sparkled with excitement as he took in his new room, his heart filled with joy at the sight of his new toys and books.
Hermione smiled as she watched Harry look at his new bed. She watched as he managed to climb on the bed, pushing down on the mattress as he crawled to his pillow, testing them out. She heard a happy squally coming from the boy as he sat up giggling. Harry raised his hands, reaching for Hermione, and gave her a grabbing mention as he pouted at her. She couldn't help but smile at his cuteness as she went over. Sitting on the bed next to Harry as he dived onto her, cuddling into her.
There was a popping sound filling the room. Hermione looked over and saw Dobby. "Harry, look, it's Dobby."
Harry's head shot up as he scrabbled out of bed to show Dobby his new toys and bed.
"Obby wook i got bed and toys." Harry grabbed Dobby and dragged him around the room, showing him all his new stuff, even his new Teddy's.
"These are lovely, Master Harry Potter, sir; oh missy Hermy, Headmaster, ask me to tell you Padfoot and Moony will be here soon."
"Thank you, Dobby." Hermione, once again, could see longing in Dobby's eyes.
"Harry, why don't you ask Dobby to play with your new train."
"Oh, yes, Obby, come pway with my trains." Dobby bounced as he ran over to Harry.
Hermione watched as Harry and Dobby played with his new toys. They built a station with his new blocks and ran his train around. She laughed at Harry's happy giggles as the train let out smoke.
There was a knock on her door; she made her way over; opening the door, there was Dumbledore, and behide him was Remus and a nervous-looking Sirius.
"Come in"
As they walk in, they are welcome to a child lounge. As they watch Harry waddle after his train, Dobby notices them all, and the train stops with the click of his finger. Before Harry can get upset, Hermione calls him.
"Harry, darling," Hermione calls out as she walks towards him.
Harry quickly turns to see her; not catching the men now in his room, he runs right into Hermione's arms.
"You remember the photo I showed you?" Harry nodded. "Of course you did, my clever boy." Hermione turned and saw Dumbledore had left, leaving Remus and Sirius standing. Sirius's eyes had tears as he looked at Harry, who was holding onto Hermione, trying to hide his face but also looking at the two men.
"Do you remember who they are?" Hermione slowly walked towards them.
Harry pointed at Remus first. "Unwle Oony." then pointing to Sirius. "Unwle Adfoot." Hermione smiled, tickling his belly.
"That's right. Now, do you think Uncle Padfoot likes one of your big cuddles? I'll be right here." Harry bit his lip, looking between the adults. He then nodded and slowly reached for Sirius.
Sirius reached out, taking little Harry in his arms. He didn't even release the tears running down his face until Harry tilted his hand as he looked at him, reaching his tiny hand to wipe away the tear.
"You okay, Unwle Adfoot." Sirius smiles at his question.
"Yup, pup, I am so happy to see you; I have missed you so much."
"You missed Arrry. Why?" Harry pointed to himself.
"Ooh yes, very much, pup; I missed you because. I love you so much."
"You love Arry."
"Yes, very much, just like Uncle Moony."
Harry smiled as he did a happy wiggle, turning to look at Hermione.
"My Mia Unwle Adfoot and Ncle Oony love Arry as you do."
"I know, darling. They love you so much, so do I." she smacked at him, and with that, Harry turned back around and snuggled into Sirius.
Sirius smiled and buried his face into Harry's hair, breathing in his smell as he held Harry tighter. He felt pulling back. Sirius looked at Harry, who now had a serious Hermione face.
"Unwle Adfoot, it's Unwle OOny's turn now. You can get more uddles later." Harry kissed Sirius's cheek as he reached for Remus.
Remus quickly took him into Harry's arms, letting Harry snuggle with him. Remus buried his nose into Harry's neck as he held him close. Hermione went over to Sirius, who pulled her in for a hug.
"Thank you. When he is asleep, we will talk." Hermione's voice was filled with reassurance and care as she spoke to Remus and Sirius, her protective nature evident. She gently guided Harry's interactions, ensuring his comfort and safety, her love for him shining through.
" Of course." Pulling back, she saw Harry kissing Remus on his cheek. "Harry, why dont you show your Uncles your bed."
Harry wiggled in Remus's arms to be let down. " Down wlease Unwle Oony." Harry reached for the men's hands, dragging them along. He then let go, ran before them, and presented his corner with open arms.
"Arry has a room, no upborad." Harry looked at the two men. Sirius smiled down at him as he tried to hide his tears, and Remus took the other man's hand as he rubbed his knuckles.
"Well, that is lovely, Harry. Who is that on your bed?" Remus pointed to Harry's teddies. They chuckled as they watched Harry gasp as he shuffled off. Climbing on the bed and dragging his four teddies over to the end of the bed, he lined them up.
Sirius and Remus smiled brightly as they watched Harry hug each teddy close to him and then line them up. Then he kissed their heads, looking at the three adults watching him. A hippogriff, a black dog, a stag and a wolf were all sitting together. Sirius let out a laugh.
"Would you like to see some magic, Harry? I can turn into that black dog; well, I'll be a bit bigger." He watched as Harry's eyes widened, looking at Hermione, who confirmed she could, which caused Harry to let out a gasp.
"Ohhh plwase yessss."
Harry watched as Sirius stepped back and closed his eyes; there in his place was a large black dog. Harry leaned on the bottom of his bed, his eyes filled with wonder as he watched Padfoot walk to the side of the bed. Placing his head down, Harry was quick to make his way over. He slowly put his hand out and stocked Padfoot's head. Harry let out a giggle as Padfoot licked his hand. Sirius changed back, hugging Harry, looking down at Harry's sprinkling green eyes.
" Shall we have some lunch now, Harry? Uncle Padfoot and Uncle Moony can join." With Harry's nod, Sirius turned around and showed his back. Remus looked sad as he watched Harry turn his head, confused.
"Harry, you can climb on Sirius's back; he will carry you to the table. It will be fun," Hermione said. Harry looked serious as he climbed up his Uncle's back.
"Right, little man, hold on, wrap your arms around my neck." As Harry did, Sirius took off weaving around the room. He stopped and shook his back, and Hermione and Remus watched as Harry giggled and laughed so much that he had tears on his face. Sirius finally made his way back to the table.
