-Chapter Twenty-Three-

Standing just inside the portkey sanctioned room in the large, dreary prison, Draco shivered and turned towards his mate with a frown on his face.

“Yes this is what I want and need to do.” Harry said, before Draco could open his mouth.

“Okay fine, but I'm staying by your side and not moving even if you hex me.” Draco warned, before wrapping his arm around Harry's waist, ignoring the guards stationed in the room.

Soon enough, a guard came in through the doors, allowing the other guards to check him for any spells or anything illegal before he was allowed to approach the waiting pair.

“Mr Potter and Mr Malfoy I've been assigned to bring you to where you wish to go.” He said with a nod of his blond covered head. “Have you been checked over by the other guards?”

“We have.” They said, even as the guard looked to verify that with the other guards.

“Alright. Come with me we only have a short amount of time until the dementors return to this side of the prison. We know about your sensitivity to them so we made sure that they're on the other side of the prison while you're here.” He explained.

“We won't be here very long so we should be long gone before they get over here.” Harry said.

Following the guard through the hallways, they went up three flights of narrow stairs before they entered a locked door and started down a hall with cell doors on both sides.

Pulling his cloak closer around him, Harry ignored the eyes peering out at them through the doors and just focused on following the guard.

“Right here Mister Potter. I can give you about five minutes before we have to leave.” The guard said, motioning to the cell door to the right of him.

“I won't need that much.” Harry said, nodding for the guard to step away from the door which he did. “Wait right here for me love. I'll be right back over.” Harry whispered to his mate who instantly frowned and tightened his hold on his pregnant mate.

“I don't think that's a good idea.” Draco protested.

“You can still see me and I'll be within grabbing distance from you. I just need to do this.”

“Alright, but I'm pulling you away if I even think something's wrong.”

Nodding, Harry stepped forwards and peered into the cell, looking at the figure sitting on the thin mattress.

“Well well well look at the golden hero walking the halls of Azkaban. What are you doing here?” Rita Skeeter asked with a sneer.

She looked horrible. She had dark bags under her eyes, her hair was natty and knotted together in many spots from the lack of brushing and there was a slight odor that reached his nose indicating that she hadn't bathed in a few days.

“Hello Rita. I thought you'd like to see what's been going on in the world lately. I'm sure you'll love the articles about you in here.” Harry said, pulling a bundle out from under his cloak and tossing it through the bars. “They really caught the real you in those articles.”

Snatching up the papers, she shrieked as the title of the top one reached her eyes: Rita Skeeter, Illegal Animagus, Released from Daily Prophet after Arrest and Trial!

“Looks like you have nothing when you get out of here.” Harry said with a shrug. You won't get a job at any reputable papers around.”

Moaning, she tore the string holding the papers together and scanned the titles practically sobbing as each was revealed.

“Why? Why would you do this to me?” She sobbed, looking at him.

“Because you went too far when you wrote about my child and mate. Because you didn't stop when my lawyer approached you. You set your own fate when you laughed in his face and kept doing what you did. It's your own fault. Think on that, that its your own fault, as you spend the next few years in this cell.” Harry said turning around. “Oh and Rita? I took it upon myself to have a Daily Prophet subscription set up for you here. I hope you enjoy any article about yourself as much as I enjoyed the articles about me.”

Walking towards the waiting guard and his mate, Harry felt a surge of pity hit him as he heard the wailing coming from the cell he was walking away from.

“Ready to go and enjoy our date now?” Draco asked, instantly pulling Harry close once he was at his side.

“As ready as ever.” Harry said with a smile as the guard led them back the way they came.

“I still can't believe you used your title to get in here and get that paper set up to be delivered.” Draco said honestly.

Shrugging, Harry said, “Don't count on ever seeing it again. I barely use it for anything because I hate the title, but sometimes it comes in handy.”

“A name always comes in handy at one time or another for a select group of people. Only the worthy ones are the ones that refuse to use it for anything and everything...something my father refused to understand.” Draco said quietly.

Snuggling closer to Draco, they walked back into the only room in the entire prison that they could portkey into and was under heavy guard watch 24/7.

“We have your exit portkey right here Mr. Potter. The Auror that dropped it off also asked us to give you a letter from the Minister.” The guard said, holding them out after returning their wands to them.

“Thank you I'll read it later.” Harry said, slipping the letter into his pocket as Draco took the portkey from the guard.

Stepping into Draco's arms, Harry placed his hand on the portkey and a few seconds later it activated and whisked them away from the prison and back to their house.

“Do you want to change into anything before we go?” Draco asked his mate.

“No I'm good these are comfortable clothes...unless you think that I might need to change into something different?”

“Those are comfortable enough and warm enough for you?”

“Yeah they are.”

“Then you should be fine. If not I'm sure we can figure something out.” Draco said, wrapping his arms around Harry.

“Where are we going?”

“You'll see, I'm going to apparate us there now. Can you close your eyes for me?”

“Of course.” Harry said with a nod, resting his head against Draco's chest, giving a purr as Draco gave him a slight squeeze as he apparated them away.

When they landed, Harry tightened his hold on Draco to keep his balance as he wobbled slightly.

“Okay, love. I want you to keep your eyes closed and I'll lead you to where we're going.”

“Okay.” Harry said, with a nod, blindly reaching down to wrap his fingers around Draco's.

Draco led him where ever they were going and before long, Harry heard a door open before he was struck by a gust of cold wind.

Shivering, Harry barely had time to feel the cold before he heard and felt a warming charm hit him sent by a familiar voice.

“Mother you're ruining my surprise.” Draco said with a faint whine.

Snorting on his laughter, Harry opened his eyes and smiled at his mother-in-law.

“Hello Narcissa.” He said as he took in the sights of Malfoy manor.

“Hello dear.” She said with a smile as she moved forwards and grabbed him in a hug before she reached down and gave his swelled stomach a pat. “And hello to my grandchild too.”

“Oh I see how it is. I see which of us you like the best.” Draco teasingly said, with a fake pout.

“Oh come here, my darling dragon.” She cooed, pulling him to her and peppering kisses all across his face.

“Mother...mother stop!” He whined, trying to pull away.

Giving a laugh, Narcissa pulled away and smiled at the lipstick marks left all over Draco's face. “Oh I'm sorry, darling. Let me go so you and my wonderful son-in-law can go do what you're doing.”

As she walked back into the manor, Harry smiled at Draco and said, “Love, you've got a little smudge right here.”

“What?” Draco asked, reaching up to rub at his face before looking at his fingers. Giving a groan at seeing the lipstick, he pulled out the handkerchief he carried around and cleaned off his face.

After making sure his face was clean, Draco took Harry's hand and led him towards the barn across the yard and inside to where two saddled horses were waiting for them. One was a pitch black Arabian stallion and the other was a chestnut brown and white pinto mare.

“Is riding safe right now while I'm pregnant?” Harry asked, pressing his hand on his stomach.

“Yes. I asked mother and also the doctor that we'll be seeing tomorrow. They said that as long as the horse is only walking and that it's a well trained horse that isn't likely to spook you'll be fine.”

“Which one will I be riding?” Harry asked, looking at both of the beautiful horses.

“The mixed pinto. She's mother's horse and she's as calm and tamed as she can be.”

“What's her name?” Harry asked, stroking the chestnut main gently.

“Misty...I have no idea where mother got the name from.” Draco said with a shrug.

“What's your horses name?”

Blushing, Draco mumbled out the name.

“What? I couldn't understand you.”

“Blackie...I named him when I was ten so I didn't know any better.” Draco defended.

“I think it's cute.” Harry said with a smile. “But I think I'll pick the final name for the baby.” He added with a teasing shoulder bump.

Blushing even redder, Draco took a hold of the reins and led the two horses out of the barn with Harry following behind him still chuckling.

“Come here, love, I'll help you up into the saddle.” Draco said, holding out his hand.

Walking over, Harry looked up at the horse and bit at his lip. “Are you sure this is safe? It's pretty high up there...what if I fall?”

“You won't, love, but if you don't feel comfortable we don't have to do this.”

Taking a deep breath, Harry said, “No no it's fine...I'm just nervous because I've never been on a horse before. What do you need me to do?”

“Put your left foot up here in the stirrup and then I'll boost you up so you can get over the saddle.” Draco said, bending down and putting his laced fingers in a good spot for Harry to step into.

Once Harry was safely settled in the saddle, Draco moved to his horse and pulled himself into before moving the horse over to Harry's.

“We'll be going pretty slow because of the snow so it'll take us a little while to get to where we're going. If you need to stop just let me know.”

“Okay.” Harry said with a nod before he held out one hand for Draco to take.

As the horses started out, Harry tensed up slightly before he relaxed and just enjoyed the motions of the horse and holding Draco's hand.

It took them about an hour of riding until they approached where they were heading.

“Right up ahead, love.” Draco said, motioning towards a clearing they were heading towards that had two large weeping willow trees hanging down so they would have to walk through the hanging leaves.

“We have spells on the willows so that they don't change color or fall during the winter.” Draco said, noticing Harry's look at the vibrant, green trees.

“Duck your head a little as we go through.” Draco warned, lowering his own head slightly.

Once they broke through the other side, Harry looked up and felt his breath leave him at the beautiful sight. They had entered a vibrant green clearing surrounded by weeping willow trees and in the middle there was a medium sized clear blue lake. Off to the left side, built so that it was covered almost completely by the weeping willows, was a small little house with a white fence surrounding it.

“This place is beautiful, Draco.” Harry said, looking around.

“It's my own little place. I found it when I was little and wandered out past the wards. I begged mother and father to buy it for me because I didn't want anyone else to have it. I even had them have spells put up so it's always nice here...like the beach where we got married. We could swim if we wanted to.”

Laughing, Harry leaned over a little and pressed a kiss to his mate's cheek. “My cute little spoiled mate.”

“Come on. Let's get the horses settled and then get inside. I know this isn't a restaurant or anything big for a date, but I thought you might have liked this more.”

“I do of course I do. You know I prefer the silence of home and no onlookers around.” Harry said with a smile.

They walked the horses over to the house and Draco hopped easily out of the saddle before he moved over and helped Harry slide his way down to the ground.

Groaning, Harry rubbed his back and moved around a little and asked, “Do we need to go back soon? I don't know if I can handle riding back too soon.”

“No we're spending the night and then the Mediwitch will be meeting us in the Manor. I felt better them meeting us here instead of at our own house.”

“Good idea. You're always thinking ahead.”

Smiling, Draco stole a quick kiss before he gathered up the reins for the horses. “Go ahead and go inside and get settled. There should be some massage oils in the bathroom. Go pick out your favorite scent and I'll give you a massage when I come in.”

Giving a hum of pleasure, Harry said, “I picked the best mate out of everyone at that meeting.”

Chuckling, Draco rubbed their noses together and rubbed Harry's stomach before he gave Harry a gentle push towards the house. “Go ahead. I'll only be a minute.”

Nodding, Harry walked slowly towards the house, rubbing at his back, feeling Draco's protective and loving eyes watching him the whole way.

****END CHAPTER****

AN: My goodness this chapter was a pain to write. To be honest I was kind of stuck on where to go. I think the next chapter will be the meeting with the doctor and finding out some things and then there will be a time jump of about two months or so (so around the time Harry will be towards the end of his pregnancy.) Also the story probably won't be too much longer. I feel like it's reaching the end of its life. Anyway I hope you all liked this chapter and more will be up next week.

AN2: This is your final chance to leave a note on what gender you'd like the baby to be so leave a review with what you'd like the baby to be.
