Kitchen and living room are combined in one cosy room on the ground floor.

Scorpius sat on one of the small sofas in the living room, all his attention on his infant daughter. He smiled, remembering how terrified he'd been the first time he'd held her, when Storm, who had delivered the baby, had handed her to Scorpius to hold while she tidied up Rose. He'd been convinced that he would drop the little girl, even though she was snugly wrapped up in a towel, and wasn't slippery at all.
Now he held Hermione confidently, tickling her toes, and watching as she smiled. Smiling was a new accomplishment, she'd only been doing it for a couple of weeks, and Scorpius felt he couldn't watch it enough.
The room was quiet, with only the sound of late birdsong, and chirping crickets as dusk began to fall. Rose was taking a bath, and Scorpius was enjoying the chance to spend some quiet time with his little girl.

After finishing up her bath and getting dressed, Rose padded out of the bedroom to the living area. Leaning against a wall, she smiled as she watched Scorpius playing with their daughter. She rested a hand on her belly as she looked at Hermione. It was crazy to think that a thing that big had bene inside her. Uber crazy. But, she had, and she really hadn't been THAT big, she'd grown a lot in the last two months.
It was August, and in a few weeks they'd be going back to Hogwarts. It was a little wierd, knowing they were going to have to try to carry on as normal in classes. Trying to concentrate while worrying about Hermione was going to be a feat.
The smile hadn't left her face as she watched her husband (yes HUSBAND) and their daughter mucking around. Hermione was lucky she'd managed Scorpius' blonde hair, not Rose's orange locks. Though, Rose was more blonde anyway... strawberry blonde kinda. The baby girl was the perfect mix of her parents, or so Rose thought, though she may be a little bias!

Scorpius glanced up to see Rose leaning against the wall, watching him. He smiled at her - it was still hard to get his head around the fact that they were married! And parents - though that wasn't so hard, they had the perfect, pink (and sometimes very noisy) proof to remind them.
He glanced back down at the baby, as he said, "I'm glad we can take her with us to Hogwarts. I can't imagine being apart from her. It's going to be bad enough during lessons."

Rose's smile widened a little as Scorpius noticed her. When he spoke, she nodded, and went to sit down beside him. "I know. It's hard enough leaving her to go have a shower or a bath," she chuckled. She had been trying to relax in the bath, but it seemed that becoming a mother had made her slightly paranoid. She knew Hermione was MORE than safe with Scorp, and she definitely wasn't doubting his abilities, no kid had a better dad, it was just an instinct, she supposed.

As Rose sat down beside him, Scorpius passed the baby to her, then put his arms around Rose, looking over her shoulder at Hermione. "I think she has your eyes," he said consideringly. He kissed Rose's cheek, then sighed, trying not to let her hear.

Taking Hermione into her arms, she snuggled back against Scorpius as he wrapped his arms around her. "She has your hair," she murmured. She ADORED his hair. And she was glad Hermione had it. A smile slipped onto her lips as he kissed her cheek. But then he sighed. She turned her head to look at him. "Are you okay?" she asked.

She'd heard him. He didn't want to spoil their peaceful evening, but if he didn't tell her, she'd wonder... He tried to tell Rose what was bothering him, trying to find the words
"It's just... I know they disowned me, but I just wish that my parents were... that they... well... I - I guess I miss them," he finally admitted. He felt stupid saying it, but it was true.

Rose waited patiently as Scorpius tried to find the words. When finally he did, she nodded. "I know. That's hard, I understand, Scorp. If my parents had disowned me, I'd miss them too. They're still your parents... well they had been for the first 16 years of your life. That's a long time." She smiled encouragingly. "It's not going to be easy. But hopefully this one is going to keep us busy enough that you'll be able to slowly get over it... well not get over it, but you know what I mean."
