alliekatgal who wanted to know what happened next.
Harry had no sooner stepped into the room when he was tackled onto the floor.
“DADDY!!!” Four voices called out. Harry smiled up as he began tickling the body nearest to his hand.
“Daddy, stop,” his youngest said in between giggles.
Harry got to his feet and hugged his girls. Hyacinth and Violet were both five, identical and nothing but trouble. They had long, fine black hair and green eyes and were Slytherin to the core. Rose was three and had wild brown hair with dark eyes. She was always getting into everything and was louder than a room full of erumpants. Daisy was two and his little sweetheart. She was well-mannered, for a two year old and had red hair and brown eyes. They were all covered in various amounts of what looked like ice cream.
Harry picked Daisy up, not minding the stickiness, and walked into the kitchen. It was a disaster. Dishes were piled everywhere and four types of cereal littered the counter. He took a peak in the living room and found it similarly disheveled.
“Where’s your papa, girls?” Harry asked worriedly.
“Um…I think he said somthin’ about finding a “vast-echo-me” hex,” Violet answered, nodding.
“And he called us soul-sucking beasts!” Hyacinth added with a huge grin.
Harry grimaced at Severus’ pet name for the girls, but said nothing. He sighed before walking over to the floo.
“Molly,” Harry called out, praying that she was home and available. Her face appeared moments later.
“Yes dear?” Molly smiled knowingly.
“Could I persuade you to take the girls tonight, at least for a few hours? It seems that Severus could use a break.”
Molly glanced around the room and agreed immediately. “Just send them over and I’ll bring them home in the morning after breakfast. I still have their things from last time, so don’t worry about packing.”
Harry awkwardly leaned down so he could pick up Rose and grasped Hyacinth and Violet with the crook of his fingers on each hand and stepped through the floo. After kissing the girls goodbye, he returned home. He quickly cleaned the living room and kitchen with a few flicks of his wands. He called for Dobby to make a special dinner. With all of that taken care of, he went in search of his husband.
He opened the door to the bedroom and swiftly dodged the hex sent his way.
“Severus, what if that was one of our girls?” Harry asked, amused.
“She’d have deserved it,” Severus responded grumpily.
Harry found Snape huddled under the duvet on their bed. He sat down next to him and began rubbing his back, consolingly.
“That bad, Severus?”
“I’ve told you repeatedly that I am not the ideal care-taker.I lost my temper a little while ago and came in here to hex the pillows,” Snape mumbled. The fact the he wished Harry were home more often went unsaid, but it was not an unfamiliar argument. “I don’t hear yelling. Did you finally shove them all into a burlap sack and drop them in the river?”
“Severus,” Harry tried to chide, but not able to hide his smile. “That’s not a nice thing to say about our little angels.”
“Devil spawn,” Severus retorted.
Harry pulled back the duvet to place a kiss on Snape’s forehead. “You’re just cranky because they won’t let you sleep at night,” Harry kissed Severus’ neck. “I’ve made arrangements with my boss so I have more time at home with you and our children. Oh, the girls are with Molly for the evening.” Harry added. Snape turned to face Harry fully.
“Alone?” he asked.
“Very alone,” Harry agreed. He began to unbutton Severus’ robes, kissing the flesh as he exposed it.
“Oh. You can’t, oh god, fuck, um, your way out of, damn, all our arguments and problems,” Severus said, petulantly.
Harry smiled around the nipple he was nibbling. “Of course I can.” He rubbed the large belly adoringly as he moved to kiss Severus’ lips.
“You do realised that trying to outdo the Weasleys is a rather extreme way of ensuring that I bottom for you. You could just ask.”
Harry reached into the bed-side table to get the lube. “Is that so?”
Snape spread his legs and nodded. “Yes. And how is it that you are never the one pregnant? I’ve topped plenty.”
Harry inserted one finger into Severus’ welcoming body and moved it in and out slowly. “Perhaps it is because you are so well suited for motherhood?”
Snape snorted as he bore down on Harry’s fingers. “More. I hardly think so.”
Harry added another finger and leaned down the lick at the soft skin on Severus’ inner thighs. “Perhaps it is because I have the most powerful sperm in the wizarding world?”
Snape clenched the sheets as Harry brushed against his prostate. “I doubt it. Fuck me, now.”
Harry moved up on the bed, placing kissing on Severus’ rounded tummy. He reached blindly for a pillow and placed it underneath Severus’ hips. Harry gently lifted Severus’ hips and entered slowly. Severus always felt so damned good that he had to force himself to take his time. Harry kissed Severus’ lips as he moved with small careful thrusts.
“Perhaps,” Harry whispered into Severus’ ear, “it is because you always look so beautiful pregnant that it would be a sin for it to be otherwise.”
With a soft touch, Harry held Severus’ body just above the hips. He canted his hips with practiced movements that made his husband lose control. Severus held his belly with one hand and fisted the sheets with the others. He closed his eyes and enjoyed how well Harry took care of him. Harry took his time, making sure that nothing was causing Severus discomfort. He looked down sadly at the flush body beneath him and knew that this would be the last pregnancy, two more beautiful children. He reached up to Severus’ face, moving the hair out of the way, caressing his jaw.
“Beautiful,” he whispered to himself as he watched Severus come.
“Only to you,” Severus responded to the dark room after Harry’s breath deepened. Harry was spooned behind Severus as he slept, his hand thrown protectively around Severus’ middle. Severus was relieved to know this was the last pregnancy. There were not easy on the body and he was not the most gentle of men. He looked on the bed-stand and saw a parchment on it that he hadn’t noticed before. He reached over and read it.
It was a letter of resignation. Severus entwined their fingers together and went to sleep with a small smile on his face.
