Summary: “Oh, Merlin, you came,” he murmured, righting Belinda without really looking at her. Malfoy scoffed.

“Well, you seem to have misplaced our sons,”


After dropping his twin sons, Albus and Scorpius, at King's Cross for the start of their second year at Hogwarts, Harry is informed hours later that both boys have disappeared. Gathering together his friends, he attempts to track down who might have taken them, and find out why. With great reluctance, he calls upon the help of the boys' other father, who Harry exiled from their lives years ago — Draco Malfoy.

Wow, that was so dramatic, god, what this family went through in a bit over a day was terrible. But I was so happy that it brought Harry and Draco together, and that Harry realised Draco was sick and he needed help. Loved that they forgave each other and were such a happy family at the end. It makes everything worth it, but boy, I suffered with them those 28 hours!

Oh god, nothing breaks my heart like lost time. Poor Harry and Draco, having to go through all that awfulness. The scenes where Draco spends the night at Harry's and says he likes hearing Harry talk about them, and looking at the pictures broke my heart. I'm so glad they were able to get back together and make their family whole again!

Honestly how Draco even survived those 11 years?
This almost 36-hour-but-not-quite-there-yet fic makes my heart pounding, believe me. What's with those two kids as twins it was perfect!
Thanks from the bottom of my heart for painting Ginny as Draco's supporter I could give you a hug.
Last, one of my fave scenes that I love is when Harry comforted Draco on that couch in Harry's office. It's lovely.

I really enjoyed this, though it was tough a at times. Love the twins different personalities.
