Even though it's been a few months since the move, it still felt weird. Everything was different now. His best friends had once been his neighbors; now one lives in Diagon Alley, the other in Hogsmeade, meanwhile, he had moved to Ottery St. Catchpole. The moon was basically the sun. He wasn't playing quidditch anymore and instead, designing new broomsticks. Their pup was all grown up, and Eve wasn't so far behind. And now? They're looking after twins. Everything was different, that was true. But it was better. Happier. (Well, at least until someone starts crying.)
Eve, despite her aversion for younger siblings, didn't seem to mind too much when having first opinion on picking their new house. Other than being closer to Melody; Eve now had a backyard pool and her own little sanctuary in the guest house. If only it could be so easy to acclimate Gwyneth and Rhydian. The poor children had gone through enough already, he just wanted to make everything easier for everyone.
Perhaps that wasn't the best idea. He and Grace have a tendency to go a bit overboard. (As if the house wasn't evident enough of that.) But they needed to be firm, (okay, he needed to be firm. Sometimes. Eventually.) Dominic shuffled impatiently in the backseat of an uber car with Rhydian and Gwyneth beside him. In the distance, he could see the house through the windows so he pointed up ahead and said, ”There it is, that's going to be your new home.” Rhydian didn't say anything but looked to his sister instead, almost as if he were waiting for a sign of how best to respond. Dominic hardly gave them a chance as he paid the muggle and escorted the twins out of the car and up the long winding steps to the front door. ”Gracie! Eevee! We're home!” He called out into the hallway then looked down to find their bloodhound, Smores, padding up and sniffing them all in greeting first. For a moment, Rhydian seemed to forget all about what was going on as hands brushed against fur then giggled when a wet tongue kissed his cheek.
Gwynneth had been rather quiet on the car ride home. It was dark out and she was rather sleepy and she was going to a strange new place and the only things she had that were familiar was a small bag of clothes, her stuffed bunny (named Hywel) and of course her twin brother Rhydian. She followed her new daddy out of the Uber car thing and up to the house. When they entered they were immediately greeted by a dog and a smile grew on her forlorn face until she giggled and dropped Hywel to pet the puppy and scratch behind her ears. At that moment a brightly colored haired lady bounced through a doorway. She was rather pretty.
Grace grinned as she entered the room at the shout from her husband.(and no she would never get used to calling him her husband). She pressed a kiss to his cheek before crouching down at eye level with the twins. Of course as soon as she was at that level, Smores meandered around to slobber across her face happily and she squeaked in surprise. "Smores, I'm not new here silly puppy." She said, moving the dog away from her face and wiping the slobber away before grinning at the twins. "I made food if you are hungry? I wasn't sure what you liked but I figured all kids like pasta so I made that! You're new big sister will be down in a few minutes I'm sure."
