Sitting on the stool, he moved his fingers across the white and black keys in front of him, caressing them softly as a lullaby echoed through the room tenderly. Usually, he’d be the music room playing his Ukulele but what with his Aunt being pregnant and him having a new a baby girl, Ewan had recently taken to learning a few new lullabies with the hope that this would help the little cherub sleep better. With everything that had happened to him over the last few years, having a little cousin running around really did feel like a godsend to the Ravenclaw prefect and to say he was excited was an understatement.

As he came to the end of the song, he sat there for a moment, flicking through the pages of a music book he’d purchases in Diagon Alley this summer looking for something else to play, his mind wandering back to Canada and his Aunt and Uncle.
