Chapter 17
Harry was working on an essay for McGonagall since he was temporarily excused from her class. Apparently Self-Transformation was dangerous but he was theoretically allowed to practice on Draco. Though he did better without Ron's constant babbling or Hermione's incessant correction he didn't trust himself not to cause Draco harm.
There was a knock outside their rooms…
He got to his feet and padded over to open the door, quickly casting the glamour to hide his baby bump.
"Hello Harry."
Harry grinned, "Bill." hugging the man gently.
Bill hugged the tiny Gryffindor, "You asked me to bring your emancipation papers?"
Harry nodded, gesturing for the man to take a seat and curling up with a pillow on the sofa, "With Sirius gone I want to be responsible for myself. I know that technically I'm not truly an adult until I graduate but given the circumstances it might be better for me if I set up a small house and I can have members of the Order help me with my defensive and offensive magic. If I'm at my aunt and uncle's then I can't train because I have the trace. I don't know when I'll have to face Voldemort but I want to be ready. As much as I don't like my family I don't want them to be targeted because of me."
"Why don't you like them?"
Harry chewed on his lip, not keen on telling Ron's brother too much, "I don't fit in with them, not like I do with your family. I'm a Wizard and they're Muggles, there is always that wall separating us."
Bill was pretty sure after having grown up with Fred and George that Harry wasn't being entirely truthful but the boy was nearly of age. "Well you can file through Gringotts or through the Ministry?"
Harry knew nothing about these things, "Which would be faster and easiest?"
Bill sighed, "Gringotts, they don't have as many paper-pusher hoops to climb through. If Gringotts declares you an adult then we can file to have the trace removed. I have a friend I went to school with who went into Law, a nephew of Madam Bones who is Dad's overall boss, I'm sure we could see if he could petition the Department of Under-age Magic to have the trace removed."
Harry bounced in his chair, "That would be lovely." He felt a sudden rush of nausea and summoned a potion.
Bill raised an eyebrow, recognizing it. "Harry? Is there something you haven't told me?"
Harry blushed, hugging the pillow after banishing the empty vial to the kitchen to be washed. "Umm…"
"You ask me out of the blue to retrieve documents regarding your inheritance and now you want to be emancipated early?"
Harry chewed on his lip, "I…sort of…accidentally…got pregnant…"
Bill's eyes widened, "How do you accidentally get pregnant? You're a bloke."
"I know I'm a bloke." Harry said testily, "Apparently, the baby's father and I are soulmates. The connection between us allowed me to conceive. At least you took it better then Ron. Then again he walked in on us cuddling."
Bill's stared at the boy very hard, "Who is the father?"
Harry gulped, shifting nervously, "The last bloke anyone would have guessed given our history."
"Harry," Bill said giving him his best 'I am the big brother' look.
Harry looked at his stomach, smiling; "It's Draco…"
Bill blinked, "Draco? Draco Malfoy? Are you mad? His father is a Death Eater, he probably is too."
Harry glared at him, "Draco isn't a Death Eater. He isn't." he wasn't anymore, he'd changed the mark, "He's a wonderful person who loves me and forgave me for almost killing him by using a hex I didn't know the consequences of using. He bought me these nice clothes and takes care of me, he makes sure I sleep enough, I eat enough and he helps me with my classes. I'm doing so much better with potions now between my first Advanced Potions text and Draco's tutoring me. It was an excuse to see each other during the day."
Bill was a bit surprised at Harry's righteous indignation of his maligning of his lover, "I'm sorry, I just was sure you told Dad that he was."
"I didn't say he wasn't, I said he isn't." Harry pouted.
"What does that mean?"
Harry smirked, "That means," he rubbed his stomach, "I changed the mark and good thing too, I fainted soon after because I was getting inadequate nutrition due to morning sickness. I just thought I was sick but he came because I called him…" he smiled to himself, "Hermione said he tore out of Potions. I woke up in his arms, he made sure I ate and then took me to Madam Pomfrey."
"I guess he's not a bad sort despite his parentage." Bill reluctantly agreed.
"You know Percy has great parents and he's an arrogant twat. Sirius wasn't perfect, he was a dreadful bully and he's Draco's cousin, so are Andromeda and Tonks." He wanted Bill to remember that Draco had good people in his family too.
"How did you change the mark?" Bill asked curious.
Harry blushed, "I don't know exactly. Voldemort was summoning his Death Eaters and Draco was in pain. I hate seeing him hurt," he frowned, "especially since I was the person who almost killed him." He said quietly.
"What?" Harry seemed like such a nice kid; Bill was shocked that he would do such a thing.
"I stumbled in on him in a…compromising position. We both overreacted." He couldn't tell the whole truth, he promised Draco he would never tell that he had been crying that day. He would never break a promise on purpose to the person he loved more then anything.
Bill raised an eyebrow curious, what would be a compromising situation to a bloke like Draco Malfoy? Something that would spark a duel that almost killed one of them…
Harry smirked, "I made a promise to him and I won't break it so please Bill, don't ask. You wouldn't like it if you made a promise to Fleur and one of us tried to make you break it."
"True. So you're trying to be emancipated because you're pregnant and you're living with Muggles." Bill said with a slight headache, "the father of your child is a former Death Eater. Harry can you do nothing the easy way?"
Harry blushed, "I suppose not." He didn't seem to do things easy, trouble always found him.
"Draco is seventeen soon?"
Harry nodded, "just after we're released for summer holidays, on the fifth."
"His aunt is still loose, the crazy one? Bellatrix? Does his family know?"
Harry shook his head; "I don't think so, so I just hope we can keep him safe."
"Do you need him to be emancipated too?"
Harry put his hands together, "Please? He wants out of his Dark Family."
Bill held up his hands, "Just fill out the paperwork and owl me when it's done."
Harry jumped up to hug him, "Thank you Bill!"
"I've got to get back to Gringotts. Please stay out of trouble. I'll let mum know you're alright. Does she know you're pregnant?"
Harry gulped, "Not unless Ron or Hermione told her…"
"She sees you like a son, she'll be worried about you. Especially now with the baby…"
Harry sighed, "I just hope she can happy for me. I know your family doesn't think much of the Malfoys but Draco isn't his father. He's a better person…"
"Take care of yourself alright Harry?"
Harry nodded, "Promise."
Bill let himself out.
Harry went back to work on his Transfiguration assignment…
