"Psh," Severus scoffed. "That song is most unpleasant. Whatever it was called."

"Figure Eight?"

"Whatever."

"You're just angry that Pomona won the wireless roulette today, Severus," Hermione chuckled.

"No, I'm bored, but my ears are just fine."

"When you pay attention to boredom, it gets unbelievably interesting, Severus," Hermione chided.

"I would rather string Longbottom up with his Venomous Tentacula," he replied.

"As long as he isn't running around in his shiny pants again," Hermione noted. "I am not his wife, but I'm pretty sure she wouldn't like knowing he sleep walks in his pants."

"I really do like the pants," Severus commented. "They are a stunning green. I don't care for the man wearing them."

Hermione arched a brow, sipping her espresso. "Mmmhmm. What other inappropriate thoughts are you harbouring, Severus?"

"Psh," he replied. "Eat your vegetables." He pointed his fork at her untouched vegetables.

Hermione gave him a pointed look.

"If you don't eat your vegetables, you can't have any pudding," he replied, arching a brow.

Hermione pointed her wand at her vegetables and turned it into a bread pudding and ate that instead.

"That was hardly fair," Severus noted. "Are you proud of yourself?"

"People in their right minds never take pride in their talents," Hermione quoted. "I'm quite proud of myself."

"Did you call yourself mental just now?" Severus asked.

"I did marry you, love," Hermione argued.

Severus flushed.

"Would you to please shut up!" Ron blurted angrily as he slammed his fist down. "I'm tired of listening to you argue like an old married couple!"

Severus and Hermione arched a brow together. "We are an old married couple."

"Couldn't you just take the kids to the meadow and bicker out there for a change?" Ron moaned.

"What, and ruin our perfect indoor track record we've kept since Hermione's third graduation since the age of 25?" Severus quipped. "You know the rules, Weasley. Kids can't go outside until their chores are done."

"I assigned them those chores! I can tell them to stop if I want to!" Ron argued.

"Yes, and you can teach Herbology too," Severus said, narrowing his eyes. "That doesn't mean we want you do or that you should.

Ron scoffed, waving his arms. "I'll see you tomorrow, 'mione." He shook his head and stormed off, slamming the door so hard the clock on the wall fell to the floor.

"I suppose I should warn you," Severus said absently, finishing the last of the grading.

"Oh?" Hermione asked as she tapped her quill to her cheek.

"I put a permanent sticking charm on Weasley's desk chair at the Auror's office for that dung bomb he had sent our daughter's room for "out classing Rose in fashion."

Hermione paused. "That obnoxiously heavy, iron chair that can barely move?"

Severus looked up. "Perhaps."

Hermione smiled evily. "I love you, husband."

Severus' dark eyes met hers. "Mission accomplished."
