The Fall
As you can imagine dinner was ‘tense’ to say the least. Conversation flowed rather smoothly between Draco and his father. My contribution was a quiet yes or no when asked a direct question, but looking back part of me wishes that that dinner could have lasted forever because my hell started as soon as it ended.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~Flashback*~*~*~*~*~*~
Draco kept looking at Harry suspiciously. Finally, dinner ended and Draco showed Lucius to his room while Harry made his way to their bedroom. Harry just sat on the bed feeling numb. His mind was racing and he kept replaying his earlier conversation with Lucius. "I will be forced to take extreme measures to insure that the Malfoy name remains intact." What could that mean? As Harry was contemplating this Draco entered looking upset. Draco walked around the bed laying out a set of silk pajama pants. Draco went about his normal routine as Harry sat on the bed staring off into space.
"You could have tried," the words were spoken so suddenly they startled Harry out of his musings.
"Huh?" was all Harry could say.
"I know you don't like him but he is my father, Harry. You could at least try to get along with him."
"Draco, It's not like that. He was...." Harry couldn't do it. He knew Draco respected his father and that the knowledge of what Lucius had said earlier would hurt him. "I'll try harder Draco, for you."
"I know that he isn't exactly thrilled about our relationship but neither were our friends at first. I am sure when he gets to know you he will understand what a wonderful person you are."
Draco kissed him then lay down and went to sleep.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~END*~*~*~*~*~*~
I didn't sleep at all that night. In fact I am not sure I have slept since that night. I remember staring at Draco that night and wondering if what he had said about Lucius could possibly be true. I think I was naive for thinking it was. I think that was the last night I ever saw Draco Malfoy sleeping peacefully.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~Flashback*~*~*~*~*~*~
It had been three days since Draco had invited Lucius Malfoy into the home he shared with Harry. Harry was sitting at the table that morning eating cold cereal when Draco and Lucius walked in. "Morning Harry, what's for breakfast?" Draco asked.
"Whatever you and Lucius make for yourselves. I am having cereal." Lucius sneered at Harry's reply.
"A Malfoy does not make his own breakfast," Lucius told Harry.
"Well then I guess a Malfoy won't eat." Lucius was about to reply when Draco grabbed Harry's arm and pulled him into the living room to talk.
"Harry, would it kill you to be civil to him." Draco said as soon as the door closed behind them. "All you had to do was make breakfast. You cook for me all the time. I wish you could show the same courtesy to my father. Really Harry, it won't kill you to fix us breakfast."
Harry could not believe what he was hearing. "I am not a house elf, Draco. I cook for you because I love you. I enjoy knowing that you appreciate what I do around here for you. I don't want to have to do something for you or Lucius."
"Harry, I don't see why you can't try to get along with my father. I don't understand why you are always so cold to him. The least you could do to make up for your behavior is to make him breakfast. I promise it won't become a habit."
"Ok, but I won't do this every morning."
"I love you Harry. Thank you for doing this for me." Draco gave Harry a slow sweet kiss before walking swiftly back to the kitchen to apologize to his father for Harry's earlier behavior. When Harry returned to the kitchen Lucius told him what he would like for breakfast and turned back to his conversation with Draco ignoring Harry as he washed out his cereal bowl before starting breakfast for the other two men.
When Draco promised that cooking for Lucius would not become a habit he was wrong. Every morning Harry would wake up make himself a small breakfast usually toast or cereal since he did not really like breakfast. Then Draco and Lucius would walk in and Lucius would tell Harry what he wanted for breakfast before sitting down to read the newspaper. Harry would start to tell Lucius were to go when Draco would look at him with such sadness over the fact that Harry could not get along with Lucius that Harry would make Lucius his breakfast. The arguments between Harry and Draco had gotten to the point where Harry was sleeping on the couch in their sitting room. Every night Harry would talk to Draco they would almost always get in to an argument and then Draco would kiss Harry goodnight before going into what was once their bedroom. Harry tried to only go to sleep after Lucius had already retired for the night and he was always the first to get up but still Harry could tell that Lucius was aware of the new sleeping arrangement. For the first time since Draco and he had moved in, their home felt like an empty house to Harry. In Harry's mind he may as well have been at the Dursley's house for his role in each home had become the same. Harry could not miss the look of joy on Lucius usually impassive face as Harry and Draco grew further apart.
Every morning Harry resolved to tell Draco of the snide comments Lucius made to Harry when Draco was not there, and every morning he would see how happy Draco seemed over the presence of his father and he would chicken out. Lucius was becoming increasingly nastier to Harry when the two of them were left alone and Harry was feeling more and more like the little boy he once was. He wondered vaguely if Draco would make him sleep in a cupboard if Lucius asked him to. Draco hung onto every word his father spoke as if it was spoken by Merlin himself. Draco was so busy mending his relationship with his father that he did not see what was happening to his lover. Each day that passed Harry became more and more withdrawn as Lucius used every possible means to make Harry look bad in the eyes of Draco. One morning Lucius deliberately taunted Harry until Harry could take no more. Draco walked into the sitting room to find Lucius sitting on the floor with a busted lip while harry held his wand at the man in one hand while his other hand was curled into a tight fist that had obviously caused the damage to the face of the Malfoy patriarch. When Harry tried to explain Draco would hear none of it. All he saw was that his lover had just physically assaulted his father. There was no justification in his eyes and when Harry told Draco that Lucius had been rude and taunted him into the fight Draco had dismissed his claim listening instead to his father who maintained that it happened over a misunderstanding. Lucius even went so far as to tell Draco not to be upset with Harry because "what could one expect from a hot headed Gryffindor." That was the day Draco stopped kissing Harry goodnight. That night after Draco left the study, Harry lay down on the couch clutching his pillow close to him and he cried. For the first time since he defeated the Dark Lord Harry Potter wept in anguish.
OK There you go people a new chapter. The plot thickens. I hope you liked this and just warning you this is going to become very angsty and depressing for a while. But there may be a happy ending.
