Summery: Regan and Morgan Smith didn't think thier past would catch up with them, but it did. One Sunny summer day thier oldest daughter recieved a peice of parchement that both of them knew well: The Hogwarts Letter. Now they have to explain to thier children the truth they've been trying to hide from for the last 17 years.
Author Notes: This is a story I actually started awhile ago, and which will hopefully still be in somewhat un-AU-ish form when Deathly Hallows come out. But if it isn’t, I’m not going to change things unless it’s something really really big.
It was supposed to be a one-shot but I think it may be 2 or 3 more chapters. This is Post OoTP and takes place during the opener of HBP. It also may be considered as part of my Athena series, but you don't have to read either one to read the other.
Caledonia Street is a real street near King’s Cross Station. However, I’m unsure how they do addresses in England
Prologue:
July, 1996
They say that the past always catches up with you, and they weren’t wrong. For Regan Smith, it caught up to him in the form of creamy parchment, red wax, and think black strokes of ink.
The day had started like any other. He had awoken, did his morning routine beside his wife Morgan. The two had been married for thirteen years, but he never quite got used to waking up to her smiling face every morning. It was probably part of his pessimistic nature, but sometimes he didn’t understand what he did to deserve her.
After getting ready for work, they would go and wake up their three children. The oldest Sapphire took the longest to wake, and he always got the honors of waking her. This morning, she had been most reluctant. He smiled and picked her up off the bed and started to carry her out of the room, her screaming and laughing to put her down. The nine year old twins stood outside their room, laughing at their older sister. Morgan stood behind them, shaking her head and smiling as she put her red hair into a pony tail.
“Reg, put her down. Sapphire, you need to get ready.” Sapphire groaned as her father put her down and walked sluggishly into her room. “And you have ten minutes, or you’ll miss breakfast,” Morgan added as she led the two boys downstairs.
He and Morgan ran a restaurant in a building that adjourned their house. He was the cook while Morgan managed the business aspects of it. They got fairly steady business due to their close location to a major train station, Kings Cross, but luckily they didn’t have to open till later in the morning so they could spend a hour with their children before they were off to school, or in this case, their day camp since it was late July.
Morgan was searching through the mail as Regan got the children’s breakfasts ready. The boys were already digging into their Lucky Charms when Sapphire came down. Regan tried not to laugh when he saw that his daughter had decided to raid Morgan’s make up. Since she was turning eleven soon, Sapphire had been petitioning her parents to allow her to wear makeup. However, apparently she decided she was done waiting for them to allow her, and she took some herself.
“Sapph!” Morgan sighed shaking her head. Putting the mail on the counter, she pulled her not-so-happy daughter to the sink to clean off the make-up. Morgan had a feeling that this increased need to be an adult was because Sapphire had started to notice that boys weren’t all that icky. According to Becky, the teenager who watched the kids when neither Morgan nor Regan could, the two had run into a few students at King Cross and Sapphire had been smitten with one of them, a redhead. Regan had found this amusing and slightly sad because while the whole part of his daughter having a crush amused him, the idea that she was getting old enough to have one made him realize how fast she was growing up.
“Hey, look!” Arren, who had taken up his mother’s job of sorting the mail, pointed towards the window. His brother James joined him at the window where a large White owl sat perched. Frowning, Ragen walked towards the window and opened the window and watched as the bird flew into the room. The kids were entertained by the bird and Sapphire walked up to it with a piece of her cheerios, which the bird took. She giggled as the bird ate the piece of cereal and turned to her parents with a look that clearly asked can we keep it? However, both parents were not focused on their daughter, but on the bird that had dropped a parchment envelope on the kitchen table. One that had a clear black crest and writing on the front.
