Wyatt was away for doing whatever at the school and Ria almost, almost, envied him. She was dealing with screaming five year olds at the moment and that was enough to make her drive herself insane. Both her girls were gone off with their friends at Diagon before the school was to begin. They needed girl time and Ria understood that. So, Ria had been a bit tuckered out, so she'd laid down. She thought the twins were asleep.
She never could have made a bigger mistake. She woke up to them screaming at each other over the television. The more Ria thought about it the more she wished she hadn't put that box in their house. It would drive her insane. They were arguing over what to watch. Since then Ria had tried to force them to listen to her and get them to shut up, but nothing seemed to be working. She cursed her children for having her stubborness. She wondered how people survived twins. She really did. She finally jsut gave up, threw her hands in the air, and cursed. She then saw the door opening and hoped it was her husband.

School was coming up fast and Wyatt was torn. It was how he felt every year. He loved his job, he really did, even after all these years he got a kick out of watching students get the spell right, they were always so happy. However it also meant leaving Ria alone with the kids. Now both girls were going to be at Hogwarts so at least that lightened her load a bit, but the boys... well they were handfuls. He had been at the school getting things settled and headed back home, apperating right outside the door, he could already hear the screaming through the door. He pushed it open and smiled.
"I'm home" He announced, walking over to the yelling twin. "What's going on here?" He asked, lifting both boys up. "I know it's really not necessary for you to be yelling so lets try this, Damien, why?" He looked to the son on the left, walking over to drop them on the couch, he was getting too old for this. He went to give Ria a quick kiss and looked back over at the boys. "Well?"

Ria felt relieved the moment she saw him come in the door. When he took over the situation she relaxed and knew that he was going to take care of it all. Ria listened to the boys mumble something about the television and then she looked to Wyatt as she spoke, "That is your fault. You wanted the bl-stupid thing." She stopped herself from saying 'bloody' knowing the boys would pick it up and it would be their new favorite word.
Damien and Jacob looked to their mother and she saighed as she spoke, "Go ahead to your rooms. Dinner will be done soon." Ria then went wide eyed and yelled out, "Bloody Hell!" She pushed herself quickly off the couch and went into the kitchen. She pulled out the quiche she'd been attempting to make following his mother's recipe. She looked down to the burnt food in her mittened hands and then groaned as she ordered the spell to the oven to turn it off. She then sat the pan on the counter and felt tears welling in her eyes. Why can I not do this? She makes it look so easy. You think after almost fifteen years that I would have picked up some skills.
Ria leaned on the counter and then looked to her husband who she knew well enough to know he followed her. She sighed as she spoke, "Maybe it will be a bit longer on that food."

Wyatt turned to Ria, not at all surprised, this wasn't the first time he'd come home to find her completely flustered. "It's a great machine, it's them that makes it seem like less of a blessing." He pointed to the twins. He loved his boys, he loved all his kids more than he ever thought possible. However there were times when he found himself thinking about life before kids, when he got a few moments of quiet. Of course that all sounded terribly boring and he wouldn't give up his kids for anything but sometimes it was nice to reminise. He looked at the boys as Ria told them to go to their room, and he pointed.
He jumped about ten feet in the air when Ria cursed and went running into the kitchen. He waited a few seconds then followed her, smelling the problem before he saw it. He walked over to her and wrapped his arms around her waist. "You'll get it, and if not, well I can live without quiche. As long as you can make lasagna." He winked. "In the meantime we can just order out. When are the girls getting home?" He asked, kissing her before going to write out an order to send out. He knew what they all liked, he just needed to know if he was going to be ordering for Naomi and Camilla.
"But next time you decide to make quiche, I'll be sure to take the boys out of the house, I have a strong feeling that could only help." He smirked gently. Their boys were a handful and honestly he didn't know how Ria managed to keep in line at all.

Ria laughed a bit when he blamed the television's fault being the boys not the box. She could only shake her head. She heard his words and laughed more in the kitchen. She was glad to be in his arms. She hadn't kissed or hugged him today. What kind of wife did that make her?! She turned around before speaking, ?Naomi should be home, but Camilla is staying at her friend's house tonight. By the way, I still skrew up the lasanga too."
Ria shrugged as she threw the food away. She ten put the pan in the sink or wamr water as she spoke, "I have a feeling I am the problem on that one, Wyatt. I don't think it was the boys. I jsut...I'm not your mother. I'll never learn how to cook right." She sighed as she ran a hand through her hair. She wsa used to House Elves. It had been fifteen years, but that was what she was used to. She then shrugged as she asked, "How are the preparations at the school?" She missed working at the school. If it weren't for the boys, then she'd be going back, but her children...she needed them as much as they needed her.

"Too bad, Milly's going to be missing a great meal." Wyatt smiled jotting down all the orders and taking it to the fireplace, he used his wand to start a quick fire and sent the order off to The Three Broomsticks. He stretched his arms up over his head and went to get a drink from the fridge, it had been a long day of staff meetings, unpacking and people running around demanding more textbooks or whatever else. He had no idea how Headmaster Weasley handled it. His hair was already surpassing gray and headed for white.
He smiled at her when she lamented about her inability to make food. "You're fine Ria, if I wanted to marry a great cook I'd have married Louise Baxter from down my street, I didn't marry you for your house skills. I married you for your looks." He teased lightly. "Which is why I'm also having you stay home instead of work, don't need anyone oggling my woman." he winked. He made a face when she mentioned the schoo. "It was hectic of course. Meetings and the like. Oh we have a new Care of Magical Creatures teacher. Logan." He nodded, he didn't know if she knew that or not.

Wyatt said that he'd have married Louise and she hit him and smiled, "You would not." Then he made the comment on her looks and she looked to him wide eyed as she spoke, "Logan...care of magical creatures. You mean Logan O'dell from when I first started teaching at Hogwarts? The one that is related to Colby?" Ria looked to him and pondered on it. She smiled and then ran a hand over her neck and then spoke, "He will do a good job with that."
Ria then came over to Wyatt and ran her hand over his neck. She leaned up and pressed her lips to his again. She smiled as she pulled away and spoke, "I'm half tempted to go to work just to make you jealous now."

"Louise wouldn't have hit me." He joked, actually she had in the past. He and Louise had grown up together and she enjoyed beating him up. He nodded in responce to her question "The very same. I always thought he'd excell in charms but I suppose I'm lucky he didn't. Out with the old and in with the new and whatnot." He shrugged. He actually was pretty secure in his position at the school since he'd been there so long. "I hope so, otherwise there may be a three fingered member of their family." He joked lightly, running a hand through his hair.
He smirked as she came over and kissed him. "You see, if you do that, then I'll just start following you around and cursing anyone that looks at you. Then You'd get angry because I'd be smothering you and our boys would gain five hundred pounds living with my mother. We'd all lose." He smiled, kissing her again. "Besides, you make a very sexy housewife."

Ria rolled her eyes when she heard him say that about Louise and ten laughed as she spoke, "She would have. You and your mother have told me plenty of stories about her for me to think she would have hit you." Ria nodded in reassurance as she looked to Wyatt. She then let him continue as she spoke, "I think he was good at everything. He did well in my classes also. He was a ravenclaw if I rememeber right. Plus, he is good at it. Colby told me he was a Dragon Trainer for awhile there."
Ria listened to his logic and spoke, "Bloody hell, I can't afford to feed two fat boys. Forget that." She laughed a bit and then ran her hands over his back and spoke, "Thank you, my handsome charmer." She grinned a bit and then kissed him. She needed a night out. This house was getting boring.

"Okay yeah she would have but she wouldn't have been as beautiful while doing it so I could have gotten angry with her." He smiled After a moment of thought he frowned. "Wait why were you and my mother talking about Louise?" He asked, he couldn't think of any sort of scenario in which she would come up in the conversation. He shrugged. "I don't know, he was a good kid, I just figured you'd be interested because of his relation to Colby." He smiled. "Apparently he decided students were less terrifying, of course I'm not sure I agree but hey," He half joked. He did love his job, there were just some kids in that school...
"Exactly, then there'd be the medical bills, the bill to have all the doorways widened then the cranes we would need to get them out of the house At the end of every summer." He grinned. He kissed his wife and ran his hands down her back, settling them on the small of her back, holding her close. After a moment he pulled away and looked at her. "I'm really going to miss this when I have to go back to school."

Ria laughed a bit as she looked to Wyatt and spoke, "We were talking about you and all your exes or anyone you were interested in. You know that I love to hear your mother tell me all your old stories. I love the fact that your mother likes me enough to keep me around." Ria grinned as she leaned over and kissed her kips against his temple as she ran her fingers over his neck and whispered, "You know that you do not have a mean angry bone in your body....except with the bos."
Ria took a deep breath and laughed at Wyatt as he told her all the stories of things they'd have to do. She shook her head and spoke, "Good thing I stay home then. Plus, someone has to watch the girl's there. I am jsut glad you won't bug them when guys come into the picture." She smiled as he pulled her close and then ran a hand over her husban'ds face as she spoke, "Mhmm, as will I. We will have the nights you come back home though. We can enjoy each other then... If I survive life with the boys."

Wyatt made a face. That would have been a very short conversation. He didn't do a lot of dating. He had dated one girl for a few years after he graduated and then they broke up after she moved to America and after that there were a couple of dates but nothing serious then he met Ria and it was all over. He was happy with how it came out. "So she told you about all my exes huh?" He asked, He didn't have any really bad ones that he could think of, well there was Lolita the goth girl from right after his break up with Long Term Katherine but he didn't really think about her.
"I'm not mean to the boys, I simply punish them which is why they listen to me on occasion." He smiled, that smile drooped a little at the thought of his girls with boys. "Okay Naomi maybe, but if Camilla thinks I won't be watching her like a hawk..." He wasn't really joking. Naomi was fourteen, she was bound to... be interested in boys (Much to Wyatt's chagrin) but at Eleven there was a snowballs chance he was letting Camilla 'date' or the hogwarts-y equivilant. "I'll come home every chance I get, and if the boys really do get to be too much you can go 'visit' my mother and get a bit of relaxation."

Ria laughed a bit as she ran a hand into his hair and ruffled it as she spoke, "Yes, I heard about all of them. Let me say that yours is not as interesting as mine. I do enjoy the fact that you do not have much of a past. I do wonder what would have happen had she not left though. You would be married tot a totally different woman." She grinned as she kissed his cheek and whispered, "I am happy I got your though. I was the lucky one." She was glad that she ddi not have any relatives that he could turn to to ask questions. That would have been akward.
Ria sighed as she looked to him and spoke, "I wish they would listen to me. I try to yell and they just yell over me. They are handfuls. I don't know why I didn't get to them earlier. I guess I jsut got overwhelemed." Ria laughed as she spoke, "Oh, you know that you will drive Naomi nuts too. Camillia I don't think is interested...yet. Give it time. I am sure thatit will come eventually." She heard Wyatts words and groaned. She knew she would not see him much. She kissed his nose and then spoke, "Sigh, I wish you could be home more. I will miss you." The thought of relaxation at his mothers. The boys lloved their grandmother and she could handle them so well. Wyatt's mom was her hero. She smiled as she looked to Wyatt and spoke, "She is an amazing woman."

Wyatt shrugged. "I don't know, maybe. I'm glad she did though, because now I have you and the kids, last time I heard from Kat she was doing really well too so it all worked out in the end." He paused. "How interesting are we talking? Were there tattoos involved... other than the obvious one." He didn't really consider Dark marks tattoos anyway, they were just bad. "Yeah you were pretty lucky weren't you?" He joked. In reality he was the lucky one After all never in his wildest dreams did he ever think he'd end up marrying and having kids with Rianna Zabini when he was in school.
"it's bound to happen, after all, they're your sons." He smiled. "So they're loud and don't like to listen to anyone else." He put on an innocent face when she said he's harrass Naomi too "Of course not. Naomi is a big girl and if the boys she seems interested in suddenly become terrified of being near her who's to say it was because her dad threatened to levitate them to the middle of the whomping willow?" He made another face. "Millie's just not allowed to date until the boys are old enough to help me harass suitors. I can only do so much, of course if I quit m job then I would have more time but then they wouldn't let me just hang around Hogwarts and this has become far too detailed." He laughed lightly. "She really is." Of course part of the reason people listened to her was because they were afraid of her but a respectful kind of afraid, she just had that effect.

Ria didn't like to think about her exes. It was just something she'd rather forget about now that he had Wyatt. She gave him a half smile as she spoke, "No tattoos...other then yeah." That still lit up sometimes. They still called people to meet and gather. She never told Wyatt these things. She didn't want him to know and worry. Usually, it was during the early morning hourswhen he was asleep or the night hours when he was asleep. She never told him nor would she. She'd wake up toa soft pain in her arm and before she knew it her pain would turn into a merciless burning. No, Wyatt could never know. She had to hope that they would not call during the times eh was around. Ria shook her head to make those thoughts go away as she spoke, "There were just a lot of them,Wyatt...none that matter. You won me over."
Ria laughed a bit as she looked to him and spoke, "Oh, I know they are my sons. I have no question about that." Ria laughed at the memory as she spoke, "Remember how it was too late in the labor to use magic without the chances of harming the boys? I had to give labor without any help at all magically? Oh, if I could redo that day.. I'd have woken you up at the first sight of pain." She shook her head and laughed a bit.Ria laughed a bit as he spoke, "Wyatt, your daughter is going to hate you if you push every boy she likes away. Well,maybe she won't Naomi is a special kid. She might just laugh at you." She then shook her head and spoke, "Oh, the boys are torturous now. Just tell all the boys that is what their kids could turn out like. It will have them running for the hills." She laughed a bit and then kissed his neck genly. She grinned as she spoke, "No more kids till all our are grown up. Though the making is fun." She winked and ran her hands down her husbands back as she pulled him closer.
