A/N: I can’t wait until Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope you enjoy this chapter!
*edit* A/N: Well then! It was brought to my attention that I had suddenly resurrected Dumbledore in this chapter. A rather unexpected move on my part, don’t you think? I’m terribly sorry for the confusion, and I have rectified this- well, HUGE mistake!!! Lol. I have a habit of forgetting what I’ve previously written… and I guess Dumbledore’s death just refuses to settle in my mind. SORRY again! And… well… that’s all I guess.

Harry woke with a pounding headache. He hissed at the light and closed the drapes with a flick of his wand. Aside from his obvious hangover, he was feeling rather warm and safe. There was a slight weight across his hips, but rather than feeling confined, he felt reassured. He turned on his side to face Draco, smiling at how angelic the blonde looked when he was sleeping.
When Draco’s eyelids fluttered open, he leaned forward and kissed him lightly. “Good morning.”
“Indeed, it is,” Draco replied, grinning, “I could get used to waking up like this.”
Harry nodded in agreement. “Thank heaven it’s Sunday. I’m not ready to leave bed…”
Draco laughed. “We should probably make an appearance sometime today. People will get suspicious.”
“I don’t care,” Harry said, burrowing deeper into the blankets, “They’re suspicious either way. Might as well give them a reason.”
“Lazy…” Draco teased, but made no move to get up.
“So? Even the Boy-Who-Lived should get a day off once in a while,” he retorted, “Besides… my head is killing me.”
“We still have to finish our homework,” Draco said, “Since it is due tomorrow. And… don’t you have Quidditch practice today?”
“Not until four,” Harry grumbled, “Quit being such a buzzkill… you don’t want to get out of bed any more than I do.”
“That’s not the point… we have to get out of bed. A little hangover is no excuse to neglect our responsibilities,” Draco said.
Harry groaned. “Not yet… shut up. I’m trying to remember my dream.”
“Why?” Draco asked, pulling him closer.
“Because it was a good dream… I just can’t remember why it was so good,” Harry replied, “But it doesn’t matter. I’m perfectly happy here.”
“Harry!” ‘Ow… does she have to yell?’
“Or at least I was…” he muttered, turning in Draco’s embrace to face Hermione, who had just rudely barged in, “Yes?”
“The entire school is talking about you and Draco,” she said.
“What else is new?” Draco asked.
“They know…” she hissed, “Somebody told everyone about your relationship.”
Harry shrugged. “Oh well. I suppose they would have figured it out sooner or later.”
“You’re not upset?” she asked, “But… it’ll get back to Voldemort, now. You realize that, right?”
Harry nodded. “We’ll deal with him when the time comes.”
“Well, who do you think it was?” she asked.
Harry sighed. “I hate to say it, but the only one who was angry enough at me who knows is Ginny.”
“Oh, it was her, all right,” Ron said, coming into the room, “I caught her running her mouth to some sixth year Ravenclaws. I can’t believe she would do something so spiteful.”
“She is a girl…” Draco said.
“Excuse me?” Hermione exclaimed, glaring at him.
“With a few exceptions, of course…” Draco covered, “But girls are notoriously spiteful creatures. They’d sooner cut off their own leg than admit they were wrong. And they hold a grudge like no other.”
Ron laughed. “You’re not kidding! ‘Mione still brings up stuff I did in first year!”
“Ronald Weasley! I cannot believe you are siding with this chauvinistic nonsense!” Hermione exclaimed.
‘My God! Why is everybody being so bloody loud?’ Harry thought.
“Well, it’s true…” he said, shrugging.
She sighed. “Boys… anyway, were you two planning on getting your lazy arses out of bed anytime today?”
“No,” Harry said.
“Oh…” she said, laughing, “Well, then I guess I’ll see you at Quidditch practice?”
“Yep. And not a moment sooner,” he said, grinning.
“See you later, mate,” Ron said, following Hermione out of the room.
They were just getting settled again when the door opened for the second time. This time, however, it was Pansy and Blaise.
“For heaven’s sake!” Draco said, “Do you all travel in pairs, now?”
Blaise grinned. “I’m glad to see your sunny disposition hasn’t been affected by the rumors going around school. Well… not rumors, exactly. It’s the truth, really…”
“Was there something you needed?” Draco snapped.
“We just wanted to check on you two. Make sure you weren’t hurting too badly,” Pansy said, “We brought you some hangover potions, just in case.”
“Actually, we’re fine, thank you,” Draco said.
“Thanks, Pansy. My head feels as though seventy Cornish pixies are trying to escape it with tiny pick-axes,” Harry said, taking a potion from her and downing it quickly, sighing as he felt the pain dissipate, “Oh… thank you so much. You two are officially my heroes.”
Blaise grinned. “Always happy to help!”
“Well… I suppose we’ll leave you two, then,” Pansy said, smirking as she pushed Blaise out of the room.
The moment the door shut, Harry cast the strongest locking charm he knew on all of the doors and settled back into the bed. Draco kissed the side of his neck lightly.
“You can’t still be tired…” he said.
“No… just very comfortable and warm,” Harry replied.
Draco nodded in agreement. “Suddenly, I don’t very much care about any responsibilities we’ve got…”
Harry turned to face him and smiled. “I never did. I’m glad you came around.”
Draco kissed his nose. “You’re going to make me fat and lazy.”
“I don’t think you could ever be fat,” Harry said, grinning, “Besides… one day won’t destroy your girlish figure.”
Draco raised an eyebrow at the comment and flipped Harry onto his back, sitting on his legs. “Want to say that again?”
“What? About your girlish figure?” Harry challenged, “Face it, Draco, everything about you is girlish… especially your hair.”
Draco narrowed his eyes before swooping down to tickle Harry mercilessly. Soon he had the boy screaming in laughter, tears slipping down his face and his legs kicking uselessly as he tried to wriggle away.
“Say it again, Potter…” Draco growled playfully, pausing in his attack.
“Girl!” Harry gasped, catching Draco’s wrists when he tried to tickle him again, he reversed their positions and pinned the blonde to the bed with his hands above his head. “Hmm… I think I like these odds. What shall I do with you?”
Draco licked his lips. “I can think of a few things…”
Harry chuckled darkly. “Don’t get your hopes up.”
He moved off of Draco and settled in next to him, pulling the covers back over them. He sighed contentedly when Draco wrapped an arm around him and pulled him close to kiss his forehead.
“I swear, if anybody tries to get us out of here again, I’ll fucking kill them,” Draco muttered, closing his eyes and basking in the feeling of having Harry pressed against him. He loved moments like this… no pressure for sex, no tension, no need for idle conversations. Just warmth and silence and the pleasure of another body to share it with. Specifically when that body belonged to somebody for whom you felt rather deeply about.
They had nearly fallen asleep when they heard cursing outside of the door. Harry felt the locking charm fall and growled. “Prepare to take a life, then… because we have a visitor.”
“Who the bloody hell is interrupting now?” Draco exclaimed, sitting up at glaring at the intruder.
“I’m terribly sorry, Draco,” Lucius Malfoy said, “But the Headmistress would like to speak with you and Harry. And afterwards, I had thought that we might have lunch together. Harry, as well, of course.” He smiled at the boy, who beamed.
“I suppose since we’re not getting back to sleep any time soon, that would be lovely,” Harry said, “We’ll be down after we meet with Professor McGonagal, if that’s alright?”
“That sounds perfect,” Lucius said, “See you in a bit then.” And he left.
Draco growled, throwing the blanket off of him and getting out of bed. “I can’t believe the nerve of that man!”
“For what?” Harry asked, laughing as he, too, began to dress, “Telling us that the Headmistress wanted to see us, or asking his son and his son’s boyfriend to eat lunch with him?” He gasped in mock horror. “You’re absolutely right, Draco! How dare he?”
Draco glared at him. “He’s going to try and pump you for information, you know that right?”
“Information about what?” Harry said, “My classes? The weather? What could he possibly ask me about that would be so awful?”
“He’s going to ask you about me. About us,” Draco retorted.
“The monster! Shall I call the aurors to action?” Harry said sarcastically, “Honestly, Draco, there is nothing wrong with a man wanting to know about his son’s life. I’m sure he would ask you, but he knows you’d never tell him anything.”
“He’s never cared before, why should he start now?” Draco drawled, “I’ve gotten along fine without his interfering for most of my life. This year is no different.”
Harry sighed. “I know you don’t trust him, but couldn’t you just give him a chance? He’s your father…”
“No, he’s just the man who donated the sperm which allowed me to be born. Beyond that point, he has played no role in my upbringing, besides poisoning me against anybody not of pure-blood, or my life,” Draco spat, “And I will not give him a chance, because somebody has to remain aware of his true nature. That way, when he shows it, there is at least one person who is ready to protect you.”
Harry smiled. “Fine. However, we’re still having lunch with him. I want a chance to talk to him again.”
Draco rolled his eyes. “Let’s go see what McGonagal wants.”
*
They arrived at McGonagal’s office to find that both McGonagal and Snape were waiting for them. Without so much as a word, they were escorted up the staircase and ushered into separate chairs. On separate sides of the room. What was going on?
“Hello, boys. Would you care for some tea?” McGonagal asked them.
Draco politely declined, while Harry gladly accepted a cup of tea. He found that he actually liked the stuff… it was rather calming.
“With all due respect, Professor, what are we here for?” Draco asked.
McGonagal raised an eyebrow. “Well… it seems that several people are rather worried about Mr. Potter, here. Care to take a guess at why?”
“Because I’m currently involved with Draco?” Harry asked in a bored tone.
“Yes, that,” McGonagal said, shocked, “You do not deny it?”
“No… it’s the truth. It’s only been a couple days, but it is true,” Harry said simply, shrugging.
She began sputtering quite fiercely, while Snape merely looked smug. “It looks like you owe me five galleons, Minerva,” he said.
“I can’t believe this! Under my own nose…” she continued sputtering, “Sneaking off… there were rumors… but- this is preposterous!”
“That was precisely what Mrs. Weasley said when she firecalled you this morning, Minerva. She seemed rather sure that Mr.Potter had been put under some kind of dark enchantment,” Snape said, “Do either of you boys have any idea of who might have put that notion in her head?”
“Ginny Weasley,” Draco answered, spitting the name with as much malice as one could, “She’s still hung up on Harry. Went completely bonkers when she found out about us and started spouting a bunch of nonsense about how they were meant to be. She’s the one who told the whole school about us.”
“I see. That is not entirely unexpected… and it certainly puts a whole new light on things, don’t you think, Minerva?” Snape said.
“Well, I suppose. However, it has recently been brought to my attention that you have been spending increasing little time in your own dorms. Your friends are feeling a bit neglected, so,” she took a deep breath, “I’m afraid I’m going to have to ask you to stop spending the night with Mr. Malfoy, Harry.”
“Why?” he asked calmly, “Is there a rule against it?”
“Well, no, but…”
“Then I don’t think I will,” he said, cutting her off, “I’ll admit that I’ve been spending most of my time with Draco, and I’ll try to rectify that, but I’m not going to change my sleeping arrangements. I’m most comfortable sleeping in Draco’s room than I am in the dorms. I haven’t had a single nightmare while I’m there.”
“Are you sure that all you’re doing is sleeping?” McGonagal said, narrowing her eyes.
This comment shocked all those present and they gaped at her.
Harry took a shaky breath, successfully keeping any painful memories at bay. “Professor… have you already forgotten that I was raped this summer? By my own uncle? Surely you don’t actually think that I would be having sexual relations with anybody at the moment.”
Draco practically shone with pride at how Harry had handled that. He hadn’t had a relapse or broken down or even shed a tear. Maybe he was finally moving on… ‘I hope, anyway…’
McGonagal gasped and her hand flew up to cover her mouth. Her eyes were wide with shock at her own stupidity and tears were shining quite clearly in them. “I’m so sorry, Harry,” she breathed, stepping forward and pulling him into a motherly embrace, “I’m so sorry. I shouldn’t have said that. I was just so… shocked and- more than a little worried about what Miss Weasley said… But that’s no excuse. I’m sorry.”
Harry returned the embrace, glad to have the McGonagal he knew back. “It’s alright. I’m fine.”
She released him and looked down at him. “No, it’s not alright. Merlin’s balls! I deserve to be smacked!”
His jaw dropped at the crude exclamation and Draco promptly burst into laughter.
“I’d be happy to assist you in that, Minerva,” Snape said, smirking and raising a hand.
She pinned him with a glare. “I’m sure you would… regardless. Back to the matter at hand.” She cleared her throat and looked over at Draco. “Mr. Malfoy, I have to ask that you not monopolize Harry’s time. He has other friends and I’m afraid they miss him. He also has other responsibilities. You both do. If I find that this arrangement is affecting your studies, I’ll have to ban Harry from your rooms. Am I understood?”
“Perfectly, Professor,” Draco said, finally calming down, “But I assure you that, if anything, it will improve our grades. With me helping Harry with Potions and him helping me with Charms, our marks will be most likely to improve.”
She smiled at them.
“Was that all, Professor?” Harry asked.
“Yes, that was all. Have a good day, boys.”
They stood and left, both still grinning about McGonagal’s use of the word ‘balls’, and headed toward Lucius’ quarters. When they reached the door, it swung open and Ginny stepped out of the room. She glared at them both, before walking past them.
“What was that about?” Draco asked the moment they were seated with Lucius, “Why was Ginny Weasley here?”
Lucius smirked. “I was just having a little chat with Miss Weasley about how it would behoove her not to spread rumors about her betters.”
Harry gasped. “You didn’t threaten her, did you?”
“I merely suggested that, if she were to be caught dispersing information about the school again, somebody might get hurt,” Lucius said, “Nothing more, nothing less. Regardless, she won’t be gossiping anymore.”
Harry groaned. “Thank you for your concern, Lucius, but you really should have let Draco and I handle her.”
“Well, I realize that you are completely capable of taking care of yourselves, but I do not appreciate that little chit spreading false rumors about my son,” Lucius said.
“It’s not false, though,” Harry said, earning him a sharp elbow in his ribs.
“Really?” Lucius said, raising an eyebrow at him, “So, you and Draco are- romantically involved?”
Draco snorted at the flowery words, but answered, “Yes. We are. Weren’t we here for lunch? I’m feeling a bit puckish, at the moment.”
Harry grinned when lunch immediately appeared and Draco, again, filled his plate before getting his own. ‘I swear, he’s trying to fatten me up or something.’
“I can’t begin to tell you how happy I am for the both of you,” Lucius said after they had finished eating, “Perhaps you’ll be the one to finally get my son to settle down.”
“Oh, don’t start this again!” Draco groaned.
“Draco, this is your last year at Hogwarts. It’s high time you started thinking about your future and the future of the Malfoy family,” Lucius said, “I won’t be around forever, you know. It won’t be too long before you have to take my place as the head of the family, and I would like a chance to see my grandchildren before I die.”
“What?” Harry exclaimed. Grandchildren? How could he be expecting grandchildren?
“Yes… I know you’re both young, but in the event that you do manage to tame Draco and the two of you are bonded, you would bear my grandchildren,” Lucius said, sipping his tea.
“But- that’s not possible! I’m a guy and… guys can’t have children…” Harry said, his brow furrowed in confusion.
“Yes, they can, Harry. It is not possible for a muggle man to bear children, but it is possible for a wizard to get pregnant,” Lucius said.
Harry paled, becoming panicked. So… he could be pregnant with his uncle’s child? ‘Oh God… Oh God, oh God, oh God…’
“However,” Draco said, seeing the panic in Harry’s eyes, “It is only possible if both partners are very powerful wizards.”
Harry calmed considerably. Lucius looked at him with interest, but made no comment.
“As much as I am enjoying myself,” Draco said, scathingly, “Harry and I have homework to do. So, we’ll see you later.”
Harry smiled as best as he could and followed Draco out of the room. “See you later, I guess.”
Lucius smiled. “Of course. I look forward to it.”
