                                                                                                                                                                              Avalon's POV
           “Mumma.” My daughter Estelle called me crawling onto my lap, “Tell me how you and Dadda met.” I smiled down at her my three year old baby girl. I sighed and nodded, taking her into my arms unknowing this would be the last good time I ever spend with her or my three other precious gems ever again. 

          “Wait, Mummy we must find Daddy, Amethyst, Harry and Hadley before you start the story.” she smiled the toothy grin. I nodded at her before picking her up delicately in my arms. I cradled her to my chest and walked down stairs to where my husband sat with our newborn child in his arms while watching our one year old son chase my annoying twin brother around on his broom and our one year old daughter listening intently to our best friend tell a story. 

         “Ah, finally the two girls we have all been waiting for show up.” my redhead friend laughs pulling me and Estelle into a tight embrace. 

        “Now all four of my favorite girls are in one room.” my husband grinned walking towards us as Estelle started to reach for him. I took the baby from his arms replacing his gap with Estelle. 

        “Everyone Listen Up.” the three year old commanded, making Remus close his book, Lily to smile and Sirius to pick Harry up off his broom. James shook his head and smiled at the little girl.

        “Well lookie here looks like little Stella Bug has her mother’s temper.” Sirius smirked with Harry in his arms, “James better hope Haddie Bear and Little Gem don’t have her temper or James is Up shi-” 

       “Don’t finish that sentence or I will cut off your tongue.” I snapped at my brother while everyone else sniggered. He backed away carefully putting Harry in between himself and I. 

       “So Miss Star what can we do for you princess?” Lily asked and Estelle made the change from her father to her godmother which resulted in James taking Amethyst from my arms.

      “Mummy is going to tell me the story of how she met Daddy and all of your adventures.” Estelle giggled as everyone looked at me taken aback, “I wanted Amethyst, Harry and Hadley to hear it too,” I smiled at her before finding my place on the loveseat next to my husband who gave me the baby then moved one hand to rest behind my head and the other on my thigh. Remus straightened up in his chair moving Hadley slightly, Lilly sat on the recliner bringing Estelle with her, and Sirius dropped down on the long couch causing Harry to giggle.

     “Ava is this the best idea?.” Lily curiously asked Estelle shook her head yes and the boys shook theirs no.

    “I don’t have a say do I. You try saying no to those eyes.” I laughed and the others simultaneously agreed. 

    “Well where to start… Hmm…” I pondered for a moment not breaking eye contact with my brother, “How about from the beginning?” 

   “Where else would you start Mummy.” Estelle asked in a duh tone, I rolled my eyes at my daughter's comment glaring at James who smirked proudly.

   “You don’t get enough doy these days.” My husband smirked as I rolled my eyes.

   “Well then let's begin. I remember when I was Eleven the…” I watched as Estelle grabbed onto her chair in anticipation and the others looked quite happy I was telling the story,
