Chapter 20: They’re What?

Harry sighed, shifting a bit as he groped for the remote for the telly, he was bored and sore which generally made him rather cranky. Draco was at a team meeting for something, and Narcissa and Lucius were shopping for the babies; again. He rubbed his stomach absentminded, four months along and he had gotten even larger thanks to the twins growing more and more everyday. He was hopeful that within a week or two they’d be able to tell the sexes of the twins, which would lead to more shopping since Narcissa would insist on buying more items in the correct colours. Shifting again he forced himself to sit up carefully in order to better see the large television Draco had purchased the month previous. The telly had become a rather popular item in the house, especially for the purebloods who had never seen anything like it and were fascinated. It had been amusing at first to watch the reactions everyone had, but now it was draining. It seemed like every day someone new was coming by to check out Draco’s latest purchase. Normally Harry wouldn’t mind, but he was pregnant and stuck in bed and he wasn’t fond of the idea of people dropping by and seeing him in such a state. Though the wards Draco had set kept people out unless Harry or Draco gave verbal conformation that they were allowed in, it still seemed like a lot of people were paraded into the room. Harry knew that Draco was proud of his purchase and true to his heritage as a Malfoy wanted to show it off, but he hoped it would stop soon, at least with people he didn’t know all that well.

“Mipsy” Harry called out, finally having gotten himself situated in bed and watching the latest Lord of the Rings movie.

“Yes Master Harry?” The house elf asked as she popped into the bedroom.

“Can you bring me lunch?” Harry asked, smiling tiredly at the elf.

“Of course, Mipsy will be bringing Master Harry’s lunch right away” The elf squeaked, disappearing from the room again. Harry sighed softly, glancing at the screen through tired eyes as he waited for the elf to return.

Moments later the elf reappeared, carefully setting a tray on the enlarged bedside table along with the nutrients potion and an enriched calcium potion Sev had made just for him.

“Is that being all Master Harry?” The elf asked, looking worriedly at her Master. The raven-haired man had been exhausted lately, despite not doing much more then lay in bed, although he bathed daily in the large bathtub with Draco’s help and occasionally joined the family in the living room, but only if Draco was home.

“Yea Mipsy, that’s all” Harry reassured the elf, carefully setting the tray in his lap as he looked over the carefully planned meal. The food was the different things he’d been craving lately, along with a lot of healthy little things like carrot sticks added in for snacking on.

The elf nodded once before disappearing back to the kitchen or whatever duties she had been engaged in before Harry had called her. Settling down, Harry ate slowly, barely paying attention to what he ate as he tried to lose himself in the movie.

Draco walked tiredly in the door, he hated leaving Harry for such extended periods, especially with how his husband had been feeling as of late. Giving his coat to a waiting Flipsy he made his way immediately to the bedroom, his feeling of guilt growing even more as he saw his husband asleep, the telly still on, the lights from the screen flickering over his husband’s form. He glanced at the time, it really wasn’t all that late, only seven in the evening. Frowning, he made a mental note to mention Harry’s exhaustion to Healer Markins when the man came by for his appointment later that week. It seemed that Harry was constantly tired, as if he were sick, which was worrying not only because he was pregnant but also do to his other condition.

Stepping into the room, he drew the blankets around Harry and flicked off the telly with his wand, not fully comfortable with the remote yet. Kicking off his shoes and outer clothing, he quickly made his way into the washroom intent on showering and then climbing into bed with his husband. He was off now, until Harry gave birth, even though he was only four months pregnant. Once they had discovered the pregnancy Draco had spoken to the team trainer, manager and owner making sure he could get an extended leave of absence, which had been easy. No one said no to a Malfoy, especially if one of those Malfoys also happened to be the saviour of the wizarding world.

“Can you check?” Harry asked, looking at Markins with wide, hopeful eyes.

“I can check” The man agreed, “There’s no guarantee though, sometimes they just don’t want you go know” He explained.

“Just check” Draco murmured, his hand clutching Harry’s as he stared at his husband’s protruding stomach. Rolling his eyes playfully, Markins chanted under his breath, waving his wand in a complicated pattern over Harry’s baby bump until a projection of the twins appeared hovering above the skin. Both Harry and Draco stared at the projection, awed that the small babies they were seeing were inside Harry. Markins leaned forward, muttering under his breath as examined the image closely.

“Got it” He murmured, waiting a moment before vanishing the image. Two sets of eyes, one emerald green the other silver, looked at him expectantly.

“Well?” Draco asked, resisting the urge to bounce with excitement, after all Malfoys did not bounce.

“Boys, both of them” Markins said with a grin.

“Twin boys” Harry murmured softly, touching his stomach lightly as Draco’s mind raced. He was having sons, two sons. A huge, very uncharacteristic smile split the man’s face as he leaned over and pressed a kiss to Harry’s stomach before doing the same with Harry’s lips.

“Besides the sexes Harry, everything is looking good, though I’m a bit worried with this exhaustion both you and Draco mentioned. I’m prescribing a variation of a pepper-up potion, I’m sure Severus can make, that should give you a bit more energy and help prevent you from catching any sicknesses” The man explained.

“I’ll owl Severus for you as well. The calcium nutrient is working perfectly” He added as an after thought, beginning to pack up his things.

“Thank you Healer” Draco said, shaking the man’s hand before returning to Harry’s side.

Once Markins was gone, Draco and Harry stared at one another in complete awe.

“We’re having sons Draco” Harry murmured, caressing his stomach again lovingly as he stared at his husband.

“We’ll have to tell mother and father” Draco murmured, rubbing his hand over Harry’s stomach as well, now that they knew the sex of their babies it seemed neither of them was able to stop touching the bump. It seemed so real now, they were having sons.

A smiling Draco lead his parents into the bedroom, a small bounce in his step hinting at just how excited the young man was.

“Well?” Lucius asked, sitting down elegantly in one of the leather chairs, his wife seated next to him as Draco sat on the bed beside Harry.

“We know you had an appointment today, do you have any news?” Narcissa asked, knowing her sons had something exciting to tell her. Nether seemed able to stop smiling and Draco even looked a little goofy.

“Since Harry is eighteen weeks, we decided to ask Markins if he could check and see if he could tell the sex of each twin” Draco started, smirking as both his parents sat up with interest.

“Was he able to?” Lucius asked, his eyes gleaming curiously as he regarded the two young men.

“Yes” Harry murmured, sharing a look with Draco, both of them grinning widely once again.

“Well?” Narcissa breathed, “Tell us” She added, looking imperiously at the pair.

“Boys, both of them” Draco said, waiting for the reaction from his parents.

“Two heirs?” Lucius breathed, moving forwarded to stand in front of Harry, his hands reaching out tentatively to touch Harry’s bump. When no one said anything, the man carefully touched the pale skin, amazed that this young man was carrying not one, but two Malfoy heirs.

“Boys” Narcissa murmured, her face paling slightly, “I’m alone” She teased, catching the worried look from the three men. “I was hoping for at least one granddaughter” She winked playfully at Harry, “But I’m very happy for you, and I can’t wait to meet my two grandsons”

Lucius groaned, “What she means is she can’t wait to go shopping again”

“Shush” Narcissa said primly, sniffing disdainfully in her husband’s direction.

“We’ll have to make an announcement once you’re a bit further along. Normally pureblood pregnancies are announced once confirmed, that Weasley chit ruined that for us, but we’ll have to announce that the Malfoy family is having two heirs”

“Won’t their only be one heir? The oldest son?” Harry asked curiously, “Like whichever one is born first is the heir?”

“No, in our family twins are considered the same when it comes to inheritance. As they are both boys they are both considered Malfoy family heirs and are given the protection of being heirs” Lucius explained.

“Oh, thats a relief” Harry said, yawning lightly before smiling again.

“Healer say anything else?” Lucius asked curiously as he returned to his seat.

“Nothing important, Harry and the boys are both doing fine” Draco murmured, “He prescribed a variation of the pepper-up to help with Harry’s exhaustion as well as a preventative measure for any colds going around”

“Thats good” Narcissa murmured, “You’ve been so tired lately dear, it was a bit concerning” The blonde murmured, sharing a look with her husband.

“Anyway, you’re mother and I must be off, I have an appointment at the ministry with Minister Fudge and then a Board of Directors meeting at Hogwarts” Lucius murmured.

“And I promised Madame Zabini I would stop by for tea and a chat. We’ll see you both tomorrow” Narcissa added, rising to hug Harry and her son before sweeping out of the room.

Once the Malfoy couple was gone, Draco summoned the elves and ordered dinner in bed as he wrapped Harry in his arms and started a movie.

Severus glanced up from his brewing as the shop bell rang, indicating that someone had entered the store. Sighing he put a charm on his potion to prevent anything from being added to the cauldron until he returned and went to the front of the shop. He was rather shocked to see Ronald Weasley along with his wife and child standing uncertainly by the front counter.

“Yes?” He drawled as he stepped up, smirking maliciously as Ron winced and turned red as he faced the man.

“We were wondering if you had any potions to help with a cold. Our daughter seems to have picked up a nasty cough” Hermione murmured, looking at Snape with an imperious expression.

“I do have something that should help” Severus murmured after a moment’s thought as he examined the child currently clutched by Mrs. Granger-Weasley.

“What type of cough, is it dry or does it seem to be more of a wet hacking?” He asked as he browsed the shelves behind the counter.

“Hacking” Hermione said stiffly, as if she had better places to be then his shop.

“Ah” Severus murmured pulling a vial down from the shelf and examining it.

“This should do it, give her a teaspoon with each meal until the vial is empty. If her symptoms continue after that I would suggest seeing a Healer” He said as Hermione dug in her bag for the twenty five galleons the potion cost.

“Thank you” Hermione murmured, as Ron glanced around the shop.

“Have you been treating Harry then?” Ron asked suddenly, ignoring Hermione’s sharp look. The girl had wanted to pry more subtly, she had seen Harry’s name on a box of potions behind the counter.

“I occasionally make potions for Mr. Potter-Malfoy” Severus said, his tone turning cold, “However I don’t discuss my clients with other clients” He added stiffly, looking pointedly at the couple.

“I doubt the Malfoys would let anyone else brew Harry’s pregnancy potions” Hermione murmured, trying to salvage the situation.

“I am not going to discuss this with you Mrs. Weasley. You have your daughter’s potion, I suggest you carry about your business now, elsewhere”

“Of course, we’re sorry. Its just we haven’t seen Harry in awhile and we worry about him” Hermione said, collecting the potion Snape had placed on the counter.

“Your relationship with Mr. Potter-Malfoy is none of my concern” Severus growled, “If you have questions for the man either try to talk to him or take a hint and leave him alone” He hissed, gesturing for them to leave.

Looking affronted, Hermione and Ron stalked from the shop, but not before Hermione had managed to identify two of the potions in the box that was labeled with Harry’s name.

As soon as the couple left, Severus headed to the back office, intent on flooing Lucius and letting him know about the conversation.

Draco sighed as he listened to his father fill him in on the situation Severus had made them aware of.

“So now they’re going to our friends in order to gain access to Harry, and not just Harry but his personal information?” Draco murmured, swirling his glass of scotch lightly before taking a sip. Him and his father were seated comfortably in Draco’s small study, while Narcissa helped Harry decorate the babies nursery. Well Harry laid in bed and Narcissa directed the house elves.

“Seems like it” Lucius murmured, “Plus Nott’s been far to quiet lately, it’s making me rather nervous” He added, sharing a look with his son.

Both men fell into a pensive silence, thinking on the current issues attacking the Malfoy family.

“What if he’s just waiting?” Draco murmured, “Until the right moment. He leaves us alone for awhile and then he strikes. Harry loses the babies or something equally dramatic and blames me. I’ll lose Harry and our unborn children, the Malfoy heirs. Nott would win” He mused.

“Sounds very Slytherin to me” Lucius said, frowning into his own glass of scotch.

“Now we just need to be prepared to deal with whatever he comes up with” Draco said with a soft groan before draining his own glass.

“We’ll be prepared son, no one attacks a Malfoy and gets away with it, especially our unborn heirs” Lucius said, his grin turning feral as he also finished his drink.

“Leave it to me Draco, I’ll handle Nott, for now, worry about your husband and enjoy the quiet” The older blonde teased.

“Speaking of your husband, we should go rescue him from your mother, she’s been ‘helping’ decorate for at least three hours now”

Draco’s face took on a mask of horror as he leapt up, shooting down the hallway towards the bed room and nursery shouting something about his house and he liked it the way it was.

Chuckling, Lucius followed, though his mind was set to the problem of one Theodore Nott and how he intended to destroy him.
