"Yes, I must. All of the blokes I fancy are unspeakably attractive." Desiree sighed dramatically. "Ron Weasley...Derek Cornwall...Vinny Hofstram from the Gryffindor team..." She winked at him, returning his grin with her own devious one.

Ray made a face. "Vinny?" He wrinkled his nose before assuming a haughty face. "But you're saving the best for last."

"Oh of course!" Desiree smacked herself in the forehead. "Oliver Wood. How could I possibly pass him up?"

Ray stuck his tongue out. "You're just being mean, now."
The car ride seemed exceptionally short to Peter, as mesmerized as he was with Gwen. "C'mon, Gwen. We're home," he said happily, lifting her up. He glanced at Jess. "I like this."

"What, the weightlifting?" Jess climbed out of the car with Aiden, who had fallen asleep soon after they left the parking lot. Her back was still a little sore, so she groaned a bit as she got out but made no complaints.

"But they don't weigh anything!" protested Peter, who had not been through labor. Evelyn rolled her eyes. "Don't mind him, dear. I'll take little Aiden for you."

"Thank you." Jess passed him off carefully, feeling some lumbar relief. "Keep your support between his shoulder blades. It keeps him relaxed." She blinked, surprised at herself for instinctively knowing that even she had only held him for a little while.

Evelyn smiled slightly and followed Jess's instructions. "Go on ahead and shower, Jess. We'll have lunch in about half an hour. If you're feeling up to it," she added. Michael's parents had been absolutely no help at all when she'd had Peter, and Evelyn intended to be different.

Jess nodded, kissing her son on the forehead before running up to shower.
"Let me try." Michael was not about to be left out. He extended his hands, grabbing the air like a child who wanted candy. "I want to hold him."

Evelyn shook her head. "He's nearly fallen asleep." Pfft. Evelyn only wanted an excuse to hold her grandson. Peter exchanged glances with his father. "You can take Gwen, Dad."

Michael frowned because of his wife but instantly perked up at Peter's offer. Carefully, he took Gwen in his arms and started speaking baby nonsense to her, which seemed to make her a little confused.

Peter chuckled at the image of his parents. "Oh...we'll need another crib..." Neither Michael nor Evelyn was listening. "Right. I'm going upstairs. To fix up the nursery."

"Mhmm, have fun." Michael barely glanced at him before returning his gaze to Gwen. She looked alot like Jess, but her hair color was the same as Peter's was when he was born. He sat down in a large red armchair with her, tickiling her lightly on the tummy and babbling incoherently.

In about fifteen minutes, Peter couldn't help but feel rather proud of himself. He felt that he'd done a right decent job on the nursery. It was fit for two, now. Neither of his parents indicated that they were done playing with the twins, and he knocked on his own bedroom door. "Jess? It's me."

"One moment." Jess was busy frowning at herself in the mirror. She threw her robes on quickly and opened the door as she started srying her hair with her wand. "Do your parents have the twins?"
