Teddy and Scorpius were just about to go through the arch into the living room when Teddy heard the timer for the oven go off in the kitchen.

His gran looked at him, and he smiled. "We can get them, gran."

She smiled and nodded. "Thank you, dear." Then she turned back to her sister.

The other Malfoys still stood uncomfortably perched by the door, though Draco was looking as though he wanted to join his mother and aunt in the living room.

Teddy tugged Scorpius towards the kitchen, which smelled of sugar and spices in the best way possible.

"Can't the house-elves do it?" he asked.

"No…?" Scorpius closed his eyes, inhaling the scent filling the room. "Mmm…smells wonderful…"

Teddy grinned, pulling the trays from the oven and setting them on the counter, then looking up to see Scorpius. At the sight of him, eyes closed, face raised as he sniffed the air, Teddy felt a flutter of something in his chest. And what was that about?
