A New Member of the Family

�Hermione, this is really starting to freak me out!� Harry ranted. �Do you know what he said to me! I can't sleep in the same room as him. The moment my eyes close he's going to try something, I know it!�

Hermione raised an eyebrow. �Can you hear yourself, Harry? You're being ridiculous.�

�Hermione, he asked me if I wanted him to show me what I had been missing!�

�Do you?�

�What?� Harry practically shrieked. �NO!�

Hermione laughed. �Oh, calm down, Harry. You can't expect him not to have a little fun with you after handcuffing him to the lamp post. If you didn't react the way you do he wouldn't have so much fun bugging you.�

�Hermione, this is not funny,� Harry responded, continuing to pace the living room. �What am I suppose to do?�

�Calm down and stop acting like a prat.�

Harry turned to snap at her but the door opened and Ron appeared. �There you are, Harry. I've been looking all over for you.�

Harry raised an eyebrow. �I told you when we left that we would be in the living room.�

�Well, I didn't hear you. Fred and George were demonstrating their new stuff,� Ron responded. �You and Malfoy are needed in the kitchen. Dumbledore is here and wants to speak with you.�

�Okay, we'll be there in a minute.�

Ron nodded and headed back out of the room.

�Hermione?�

�Oh, just go. I'll get Draco,� she sighed, shaking her head.

�Thank you, thank you, thank you,� Harry grinned. �I love you, Hermione.�

�Yeah, yeah,� she snorted, pushing Harry out of the room. �Go!�

* * * *

Hermione climbed the stares, headed for Draco and Harry's room. He can be such a prat sometimes. I don't see what the big deal is. Everyone's known he's gay for the past 2 years anyway. And having Malfoy hit on you can't be that bad. I mean it could be worse. It could be Crabbe or Goyle....Okay, Hermione. You've gone and grossed yourself out.

Shaking her head she pushed open the door to find Draco sprawled out on a rather handsome double bed with a deep mahogany head and foot board, that she had never seen before. What was even stranger was the sight of Draco painting his nails.

�Is that my nail polish?�she asked, moving into the room.

�Either yours or the Weasel's.�

�Why are you painting your nails purple?�

Draco shrugged. �I was bored and I like purple. Why are you bothering me?�

�One more question. Why is there only one bed in here?�

�There wasn't, but I changed that,� Draco smirked, glancing down at his finished nails. �Think Potter will like it?�

�He's going to have a seizure!�

�Excellent,� he responded, sitting up. �Now why are you here?�

�Dumbledore is downstairs. He wants to speak with you and Harry.�

�Oh goodie,� he responded, getting up and heading to the door.

�Hey Draco?�

�What?�

�Why are doing this to Harry?� Hermione asked, curiously.

�Nothing better to do. Making Weasley bleed is fun but tiring.�

Hermione shook her head. �Do you like him?�

Draco scoffed. �Please Granger, I'd like to think the two of us have a reached a truce. Don't make me rethink that.�

Hermione smiled. �Okay, but I should warn you. Whatever you said to Ginny has her seriously peeved. She's planning to murder you in the most painful way possible.�

Draco raised an eyebrow. �Well, she's going to have to get in line with the rest of them. Now if you'll excuse me I have a meeting to attend.�

Hermione watched him go in amusement. �Well, at least this year won't be boring.�

* * * *

�Ah, Harry. There you are, my boy,� Dumbledore greeted, smiling brightly. �How has your summer been?�

Harry smiled in greeting. �Interesting.�

Dumbledore chuckled. �So I've heard. And where is Mr. Malfoy?�

Harry flushed. �Hermione went to get him.�

�Is everything alright, Harry? I know the two of you have your differences.�

That's one way of putting it. He thought, ruefully. �Everything is fine. May I ask, how long he will be staying for?�

�Are you trying to get rid of him already, Harry?� Dumbledore chuckled. �As long as Sirius and Remus don't mind, Draco will be remaining here for the rest of the summer.�

�Oh great. I get to be harassed by Potter and his group of cling-ons,� Draco scoffed from the doorway.

Dumbledore smiled. �Good evening, Mr. Malfoy. How are you fairing?�

�As good as expected, given the circumstances,� he replied, shooting a sneer at Harry. It wouldn't do to inform Dumbledore of his plans just yet.

�Good, good,� Dumbledore nodded. �Please sit down.�

Draco took the chair beside Harry and sat down, making sure to slide it further away from the Gryffindor for good measure.

�I have received information from Severus on the aftermath of today's excitement but I am rather interested in hearing your version, if you don't mind Mr. Malfoy, I'd like to hear yours first.�

Draco, who up until that point had been feeling rather smug, clammed up. �What's there to tell. I'm sure you know what happened.�

�Actually, Mr. Malfoy, I don't. I understand that it may be difficult for you to speak of it, but it would be in your best interest-�

�My best interest?� Draco snorted. �And what about my mother's best interest. She's dead because I couldn't keep my mouth shut.�

Harry eyes widened and he glanced at Draco, who ignored him and continued to glare at Dumbledore.

�Is that what you wanted to know, Dumbledore. That my mother is dead because of me?�

�Draco, it is not your fault that your mother was killed. You could not have known what would happen.�

�Oh yes, because living with my father for 17 years wouldn't inform you of how he thinks and acts,� Draco responded scornfully. �Don't give me that crap.�

Dumbledore sighed. ��Okay, what happened afterwards.�

�My father was there in the room with a bunch of his cronies. He said that I could either join Voldemort or die. I told him to go to hell and Apparated into Diagon Alley then made a run for it in Muggle London. That's about the time when your Golden Boy here dropped in, manhandled me and handcuffed me to the lamp post out front.�

Dumbledore raised an eyebrow and turned to Harry. �And your version Harry?�

Harry tore his eyes off Draco and turned back to Dumbledore. �Hermione and I were shopping in London when Malfoy showed up, followed by the Death Eaters. I warded the alley and made Hermione stay there, while I went after Malfoy. When I showed up the Death Eaters had him cornered in the park. I Apparated the two of us into the alley and then Apparated here while Hermione Apparated to the Burrow to let them know what had happened.�

Dumbledore sat for a moment glancing between them. �Well, everything seems to add up to the stories given, so the two of you should be in the clear, but I want the two of you to remain in this house. If you are to leave the house, then I want either Remus or Sirius to accompany you.�

�Yes, Professor.�

�Good. Now, I have something else to speak with you about,� Dumbledore smiled, the twinkle coming back to his eyes. �My nephew will be transferring to Hogwarts for his final year of schooling. Now because he doesn't really have anywhere to stay and I am dreadfully busy, Sirius and Remus have kindly offered to allow Michail to stay here. Would the two of you be so kind as to take him under your wing. He and his mother live in the United States so he's is quite the fish out of water.�

�Yeah, sure,� Harry nodded. �I'd love to.�

�You have a nephew?� Draco asked, raising his eyebrow. �That's the first I've ever heard of him.�

Dumbledore smiled. �Excellent. He'll be arriving by flew tomorrow after dinner. I'll stop by every now and again to check up on the three of you.�

Harry raised an eyebrow. �The three of us?�

�Yes, the Wesley's and Ms. Granger will be returning to the Burrow for the remainder of the summer. While this is Sirius's home, it is still the headquarters for the Order,� Dumbledore explained, with a light grin. �And Molly is quite adamant about making sure that none of the children get mixed up in Order business again.�

Harry flushed. �Oh, okay.�

�Well, I must be off,� Dumbledore exclaimed, standing. �I have a lot to do before the school year begins. Enjoy your summer boys.�

Harry and Draco watched as Dumbledore Apparated out of the room.

�Great!� Draco whined. �Another good for nothing Gryffindor cluttering up my air supply!�

Harry turned to glare at him. �What is your problem! You could at least be a little grateful for Sirius letting you stay here.�

�I am,� Draco responded, standing up with a smirk. �I do get to spend more time with you.�

Harry flushed and took a step back.

Excellent. Just where I want you. �I even did you a favor and rearranged the bedroom. Now we get to spend even more time together!�

Harry paled and took another step back. �What did you do?�

�It's a surprise. I'm sure you'll like it.�

Panicking slightly, Harry turned and fled the room, his footsteps echoing off the hall as he made his way upstairs.

Draco grinned and headed to the fridge. Grabbing a Butterbeer he hopped up on the counter with a smirk. Three. Two. One!

�MALFOY!�
