Once the door was opened, Teddy waved a paper in their faces. Harry caught it.

"Have fun shopping?" Teddy asked, a wide grin gracing his face and his hair a bright yellow. "And here we thought you were with poor James the whole time at the hospital."

Harry unrolled the paper to find a special edition of the Prophet featuring The Saviour of the Wizarding world and his pet Death Eater?

"What the fuck is this?" Harry cried, looking down from the headline to a moving photograph in colour of himself and Draco snogging heavily in the path between the Leaky Cauldron and Diagon Alley. Harry quickly scanned the article. Apparently they'd been overheard at Gringotts explaining the Power of Three and now were the talk of the town. The fact they'd been seen buying clothing, eating ice-cream and having drinks together was seen as a scandal by some and a romance come true by others.

Harry couldn't stomach it, he handed the paper to Draco and asked Teddy, "Where're the boys?"

"Oh, they've been up in their room for a while. I think they're playing chess. I did tell them to keep it down because the wee ones are in bed."

"I think I'll just check on them, Draco?"

Draco was seething as he read the article. "Draco, let's go check on our sons, they've been alone for an hour."

That seemed to shake Draco out of his angry stupor. "Right," he said and they trooped up the stairs as quietly as possible.

"Mmmm, Al. I want to fuck you so bad, it hurts."

Harry could hear Albus giggle. "We'll just have to wait until we get back to Hogwarts and then we'll work on it."

There were noises of snogging and Draco pushed the door open, letting it bang against the wall. "You'll also need to work on your silencing charms. Scorpius, have you had the talk with Albus about why it's dangerous to have sex with you yet?" he said with a hiss.

Harry stood behind Draco looking in disapprovingly. "Er--" Scorpius was saying.

"Why don't the two of you have a little chat, all right? Be down in fifteen minutes, we want a talk with you."

Draco turned, pushed past Harry and left the room. Harry was just turning around when he heard Albus ask, "What did he mean by dangerous?"

Harry sighed, still in disbelief at how his youngest son was already sexually active.

Victoire and Teddy were snuggling on the sofa in the parlour, watching the Muggle telly that Harry had brought to Grimmauld a few years back. Teddy was rubbing his hands over her swollen belly.

Harry rubbed his hands over his own belly and wondered what it must feel like to have a baby moving around inside. Draco was brooding in the corner, still reading the special edition prophet.

A few minutes later, footfalls, loud and stomping came thundering down the stairs and Albus ran out the front door without a coat and slammed it behind him. He was shortly followed by Scorpius. "Al, come on, please talk to me," he was saying as he descended the stairs. Draco caught him by the arm and took away his wand.

"We're, going to have another chat."

Harry opened the door to find Albus shivering on the stoop. He fetched his coat and a warm cloack and stepped out to sit beside his crying son.

"Dad, I'm scared," Albus said tremouring.

"What do you have to be scared of?" Harry asked, hoping to hell he wasn't going to hear the answer he knew he was going to hear.

"What if I'm pregnant? I'm a bloke, this shouldn't happen. It's not natural."

"Hey, hey... who says it's not natural. For Veela males it's very natural and you just happened to fall for a part-Veela, just like I did. But Scorpius' Veela blood is more diluted than Draco's is."

Albus gave Harry a funny look. "Whatever, I still say it's not natural. But what if I am, Dad? I'll be a freak."

"Al, you won't be a freak. Nobody in this family is a freak. I hate the word freak. Let's stop using it, yeah?"

Albus started crying harder. "Why didn't he tell me? How could he not care enough to tell me."

"Now wait," Harry said, a bit confused. "I thought you guys had only had sex the one time and you were on top?"

"No, that was Scorpius telling lies. We take turns and I forget how many times it's been."

"Oh fuck," Harry said aloud.

"Now you're with me," said Albus.

"Well, I can tell you now, that Scorpius didn't even know he was part-Veela until we caught you two the other night. That was the first time Draco talked with him about it."

"Well, why didn't he tell me afterwards then? It's like he was leading me on, lying to me like he lies to everybody else."

"I don't think he's going to be telling many more lies, son."

"What makes you say that?"

"Draco's confiscated his wand and I think I saw him grab our bottle of truthwhisky, so he's going to get all of the answers he wants with veriteserum."

Albus shivered. "Why do you have truthwhisky? I've never heard of it."

Harry cracked a smile and rubbed Albus' shoulder with one of his hands.

"Draco and I like to try to be honest with each other, but like all humans, we're prone to lie sometimes, so we have a game we play where we drink Ogden's Old spiked with Veriteserum and then ask and answer whatever questions pop into our heads until we get tired and fall asleep."

"That sounds nice. Sounds grown-up. I really am still just a kid aren't I?" Albus asked, his voice meek.

"Yeah, son. You're barely a teenager, but by your age I'd prevented Voldemort from getting to the Philosopher's stone, defeated a basilisk and about a hundred dementors with one patronus, so I know what it's like to grow up kinda fast. You have the choice though, to slow things down. But it's your choice, I won't make it for you, I just want you to be fully informed of all the repercussions of what you're doing may have."

Albus looked up at Harry, "What are repercussions?"

Harry smiled down at him. "See what I mean, you've got so much learning left to do. They're consequences. For example, as you've found out tonight, with Scorpius you could get pregnant as long as he tops, so it might be safer to be the top until you two are old enough and responsible enough to have a baby. Then there's the fact that you're brothers now--"

"But we're not blood brothers, I don't see why that matters."

"It does, son. In the eyes of society it matters. I won't judge you for it though, I could never not love you, no matter what choice you make, understand?"

Albus threw himself into Harry's arms in a big hug, crying again. "I'm sorry, Dad. I didn't mean to make trouble for you, but Merlin, what if--what if--"

"We'll have Teddy check, yeah? He's a healer and he's discreet. He won't tell anybody. If you are, we'll discuss options, if not, then you and Scorpius need to have a severe discussion about your relationship. We've already made an appointment for the two of you with Susan Bones, for after Christmas."

"Oh, shit. Scorpius is going to hate that, but, Dad?"

"Yeah?"

"Could you give us some of that truthwhisky for the appointment? I don't want him lying to me or to her."

Harry smirked. "I think Draco will agree to that."

"Dad?"

"Yes?"

"How's James?"

Harry sighed. "Your brother's going through his own tough time right now and will need all of our support if he's able to come home tomorrow. We don't want him ending up like your Mum."

Albus shivered again. "No. I wouldn't wish that on anybody. I still don't know why she did it though. Didn't she realise how bad it would hurt us?"

"Al, I don't think she was thinking straight, she has depression and it looks like your brother has it too. If it's not handled properly by a trained Mind Healer than bad things can happen. Sometimes I'm so mad at her for doing what she did and at other times, all I feel is guilt, for having lived a lie for so many years. I feel like I drove her to it, but you have to remember. I'm not the one that overdosed her or splinched her, she did that herself."

"I know," Albus said quietly. "Let's go talk to Uncle Teddy. I want to find out how bad off I am."

Harry stood up and helped Albus to his feet as well. "Yeah, I'd like to know that myself. Come on, let's go back inside."

***

Albus lay on the sofa in the drawing room with his shirt pulled up while Teddy held his wand out before him, mumbling an incantation over his stomach. Draco wrote it down on a pad of parchment and stuck it in his pocket. It didn't escape Harry's notice though and Harry gave him a wink, causing Draco to flush.

A blue light erupted from the wand and lingered over Albus' gut, then disappeared. "No baby," Teddy announced and Harry let out the breath he'd been holding.

Albus smiled brightly, tears streaming from his eyes.

"Why are you crying if you're smiling so big?" Harry asked.

Albus wiped his face on his pyjama sleeves, "Just relieved, Dad. That's all."

"I will want to do it again in a week, Albus. You're not in the clear just yet."

"What?" four voices asked all at once.

Teddy cleared his throat, "I don't specialise in pregnancy, except with Victoire, of course, so I'm not sure how fast a male pregnancy would show up."

"Can you show us what a positive result looks like?" Draco asked.

Teddy shrugged. "Victoire? Is that all right with you?"

She smiled and took Albus' place on the sofa. Teddy repeated the incantation and a bright pink glow shown over her belly with a see through baby on the inside.

"That's what our next little girl looks like right now. We were hoping for a boy, but it can''t be helped." Teddy shrugged. "So a positive result shows up in pink and shows you what the baby looks like in its current state. A new pregnancy would probably just come out with a pink to red glow, because the embryo will be too small to see."

Scorpius sat scowling in a chair before the fire. Albus went over to talk to him. Harry strained his ears trying to listen in.

"Scorp, aren't you glad it's negative?"

"Yes, don't talk to me right now."

"Why shouldn't I talk to you?"

"I'm still under the influence of Veriteserum and I can't be responsible for what I might say."

Scorpius slapped his hand over his mouth and squeezed his eyes shut.

"Scorpius, do you love me like you say you do?"

"Yes," Scorpius answered, looking a bit shocked by his own answer.

"Then why didn't you tell me about this pregnancy potential when you found out about it?"

Scorpius thought a minute and answered. "Because I thought it was a lie, I mean how could a bloke really get pregnant, but then it was because I was afraid."

"What were you afraid of?" Albus pressed him.

"I was afraid you wouldn't want me anymore now that I know I'm part creature."

"But Scorpius?"

"What?" he asked, growing irritated.

"I still do." Albus said and walked away and Harry had never felt more proud of his son than at that moment. Standing up for what he believed in, no matter what others might think about it.

***

Harry lay on his back on their bed after Albus and Scorpius had been put to bed in their separate rooms, sticking charms on the doors and surveillance charms surreptitiously placed.

Draco held his wand over Harry's abdomen and repeated the incantation and wand movements that Teddy had used. A blue light emanated above Harry's belly and then disappeared. "Negative," Harry said. "That's good," though he was a bit disappointed.

"Then why do you look like someone's just died?" Draco asked, crawling into bed behind Harry wearing only his black silk pyjama bottoms.

"I'm just tired, I guess," Harry answered. He listened to Draco rustling on his side of the bed and then the sound of a stopper being pulled made him turn around.

"Truthwhisky time," Draco said, taking a large swig. "You have to do it now, Harry, I'm already under it's influence."

Harry took a long draught and put the stopper back in the bottle and set it on his bedside table.

Draco went first. "Why were you disappointed that the test was negative? You realise that for females it can't be detected as early as three weeks and we're just talking one night. I'm going to have to test you every day until we're sure."

"Draco, I want to have a baby with you. I don't care if it's now or later, but I know that if it's possible, than it's what I want. A baby, with half of you in him and half of me.What do you think, Draco?"

"I think it's brilliant," Draco said throwing himself at Harry and snogging him sideways.

"You want to do it then?" Harry asked, hope present in his voice.

"What, right now, so early into the relationship? I mean yes I want to, but are you thinking things through?"

"Under the influence of truthwhisky, I swear that I want to have your baby, Draco and I want to spend tonight trying."

"Boy, you do sound like a woman when you take Veriteserum," Draco said, laughing.

"Shut up and kiss me."
