Severus finally got Harry calmed down and looked at everyone.

"How long have I been out?"

"It's been awhile." Poppy replied, "You depleted almost all of your magic, Severus, you should know better. " Severus rolled his eyes at her and ran fingers through his sons hair." Now I suggest you not leave your childs side for awhile. He's been very upset."

"I have no plans to leave my little boy." Harry sniffled into his daddy's hospital gown and still clung. " Are you hungry, Harry?"

"Daddy." Harry sobbed. " Daddy, no weave me 'gin. "

"Never, Harry." Severus promised. "Daddy will be here for his baby forever."

"I sweep wit Daddy!" Harry declared as Severus got up to walk the room carrying him. "make sure Daddy no weave me."

Draco was getting annoyed he'd come over to play with Harry again but instead of just sitting around or throwing a fit Harry was walking with his daddy. Sitting in his daddy's lap riding on his daddy's shoulders. He wanted Harry to pay attention to him! He did the only thing he could think of he began bawling like the little baby he was.

"I think Draco wants your attention, Harry." Severus said putting Harry on the floor. Draco began crawling toward Harry who began trying to climb back on to his daddy's lap. "It's okay, Harry play with Draco and let the adults talk..."

"Hawwy no wet!" Harry said tiny fists on his hips he stomped his foot. " Hawwy stay wit Daddy!. Make sure Daddy no weave Hawwy gin!"

Severus sighed and pulled Harry up in his lap just as Draco reached them. Draco began pounding on his leg.

" So did you see who the fake Death Eaters were?" Lord Prince asked, " I can start an investigation into the attack."

"You'd be starting one on the Auror Department itself. " Sirius sighed sitting down and pulling Draco into his lap. Draco was suddenly being teleported into Lucius' lap while Harry crawled into Sirius' and clung to his Mini Padfoot and chew ring. " Jealous little thing aren't you?"

Harry tilted his head to one side he didn't understand what that meant. He shrugged and happily went back to his knawing.

Harry barked as he and Padfoot ran around the grounds he jumped from one giant paw print left by Padfoot to another following the bigger dog. He finally latched on to Padfoots tail. Padfoot ran around in circles trying to catch him but Harry never let go. They'd gotten tired of listening to Draco cry over Harry not playing with him and Severus had said he needed to pick some herbs that grew in a glade during the winter. Remus was with him while Padfoot played with Harry.

Harry whimpered as he fell in to a snow pile and disappeared.

Padfoot was instantly digging with Severus and Remus. Severus surfaced with a shaking Harry who shifted back to a two year old who began crying.

"Lets get you inside, Harry." Severus wrapped his winter cloak around his son while Padfoot raced around them and Remus grabbed the basket with the herbs in it. They all ran back to the castle where Harry was given a warm bath, put in his footie pj's and given a pippy of hot chocolate. Harry was wrapped in blankets and sat on the couch. His daddy on one side and his Sirius on the other. A small cough escaped him and his daddy was feeling his head and yelling at Remus to get him the baby dose potions. " Okay, Harry you know the drill."

"Hawwy not take Potions!" Harry cried, "Hawwy not sicky baby!"

"Harry, take the potions and you can sleep with Daddy the rest of the week..."

Harry took the potions willingly after that while Remy and Sirius chuckled.

"Hawwy Cwistmas!" Harry cheered jumping up and down on Severus. " Cwistmas!"

"Merlin!" Severus growled grabbing Harry pinning him to the bed and tickling him. Harry giggled and laughed. "Okay, cuttie go wake up Uncle Remus and Sirius."

Harry ran out of the room after being set on the floor. Severus could hear him yelling to the two of them to wake up because it was Christmas. He chuckled and got up to start his day.

"YAY!" Harry was crawling after a black wolf pup that was big enough for him to ride on. " Wait's fer Hawwy!"

Harry got up and ran after it. It barked and tackled him to the ground licking him. Again Harry was laughing. Out of all his gifts this one had been his favorite. Eileen smiled as she watched her grandson. The wolf was of an almost extinct race of Protectors and she had hoped that the youngest would take to the child and protect him.

Severus sighed. He'd hoped Harry would have taken to the Potions kit for children but then he remembered that teenage Harry hadn't been too skilled at potions at all. He shook his head as his son ran past chasing his new friend to and fro. His eyes slid to his Grandfather and mother then to the passed out werewolf, cursed full moon had been two days before, to the laughing Animagus, to Reg who seemed half awake and half asleep, to Minerva who folding all of Harry's new clothes.

He was glad that Harry sent him back now. Sure he didn't get to keep Lily or their daughter but he had a perfect, though oddly insane , family right here and he couldn't think of any place he would rather be.
