THIS WAS NOT how she was meant to be spending their birthday. It was meant to be her and her brother, her husband and their daughter, her best friend and his wife with their son and her other best friend in the family cottage passed on to her by her parents-in-law.
It was supposed to be a quiet day where the family they had made could spend another day together, reminiscing over old pranks, making jokes about the responsibilities they had taken on and they'd all fuss over toddler Charlotte, whose accidental magic caused havoc wherever she went.

A day full of Sirius' laughter and Harry's feeble attempts to copy [y/n]'s dance moves to the Beatles' songs on the record player.

'I said I'd find the time to consider it when I don't mind being separated from my toddler for so long,' [y/n] interrupted with a heavy sigh, bouncing Charlotte on her knee.
