Terry had come with Damitri to visit, bearing a basket of toys and essentials for the infant as well as several new outfits. Terry moved to Draco and gave him a warm hug, his eyes sparkling. “I’m so glad your son was born so healthy and strong… I brought him lots of things to wear and to play with…”

“And plenty of nappies as well, we didn’t forget the most practical thing. You’ll soon realize you can’t possibly have too many of those handy.” Damitri chuckled.

“Oh, Draco, he’s the most precious thing I’ve ever seen…!” Terry murmured, his eyes wide with amazement as Draco gently tugged down the soft blue blanket that covered the newborn infant to reveal the sweet curve of his cheek and his tiny hands curled up as he dozed.

Draco smiled warmly; he’d always been fond of Terry and thought of him as a younger brother. “Do you want to hold him?” He offered.

Terry looked rather surprised but extremely happy that Draco would even offer. “But he’s so small… could I really…?” he said in soft awe. “Are you sure…?”

“Of course you may.” He chuckled softly. “I trust you, Terry.” He turned and gently scooped the drowsy infant up out of the bed and passed him to Terry.

“Oh my goodness he’s so tiny and perfect…” he said, handling the baby with ultimate care. Damitri watched him cradle the baby close to his chest with a smile.

“How much longer do you have until the baby comes?” Harry asked, smiling as he stood beside Damitri, watching the two men and the little infant as Draco showed him how to hold the baby.

“We only just found out about the baby last week.” Terry blushed. “The baby isn’t due until April.”

“And in that week, Terry has not only managed to redesign the spare bedroom into a nursery, he’s determined which pieces of furniture we will need and precisely where each and every piece will be placed.” Damitri said with a fond chuckle. “The furniture is on order and we already have half of the linens and curtains that we need to finish decorating.”

“Not all of it, Dimi…!” Terry objected, a blushing a bit. “We haven’t painted the room yet because we haven’t settled on the right color combinations and since we don’t know if it’s going to be a girl or a boy, we can’t buy all the linens.”

“Maybe you’ll have both.” Harry teased.

“One baby is enough for me.” Damitri smiled proudly.

“I’m just worried how it’s all going to go… I haven’t been able to see my medi-witch since I got pregnant…” Terry said with a frown of worry.

“Your medi-witch…?”

“Hermione Weasley.” Damitri clarified, and Terry nodded in agreement. “She was very professional and very good with us. I think she spent extra time with us to make sure that Terry understood every step we were taking. It truly is a damned shame she was involved in this entire fiasco; I think she would have been a very successful healer when all her training was completed if she took an apprenticeship with someone over at St. Mungo’s…”

“She was really nice to me. I’m afraid to see anyone else.”

“Well, they’ve got her in protective custody I understand.” Harry said, relaxing at the small table with Damitri to allow the others to spend time with the infant. “It’s for her own safety.”

“I believe that… that Parkinson lady was a scary woman; I didn’t like her at all.” Terry said, stroking the baby’s cheek, barley able to take his eyes off the child’s face, only half his attention on their conversation. He smiled with delight when the baby gazed up at him and gurgled softly.

“She may be able to take care of you anyway, my Terry.” Damitri said, smiling as he watched his husband with the baby. “Several of us have gotten together and approached the ministry…”

“…and made my life more difficult as a direct result.” Severus Snape said, moving into the room, with a bit of a scowl.

“Oh… really? I don’t want to make anything harder for you…” Terry said, looking up. “I’m sorry Sev…”

Severus’s scowl faded. “It’s not too much, actually…” he temporized. “I just don’t like to babysit.”

“Have you seen the baby, Sev…? He’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen...” Terry said, giving him a shy smile as he gazed at the infant, who was wide awake now and beginning to whimper. “Oh my…have I done something…?” Terry asked worriedly.

“Of course not, he’s just hungry, and might be wet as well. Let me check him…” Draco said, moving to gather the baby up.

“I’ll help…” Terry said, moving after Draco over to the changing table. Severus watched Terry and felt a little left out somehow; he sighed and turned away with a blank expression. Everything was as it should be…

“The Ministry is asking you to babysit…?” Damitri asked.

“Yes, in a way. I haven’t answered them yet but they have asked that I watch Mrs. Weasley as she makes her rounds with those she has assisted to be with child…” Severus explained.

“Really…?” Terry asked, gazing over at him, the baby forgotten for just a moment. “You’d do that for me? It would be so wonderful to have Mrs. Weasley watch over me and the baby…!”

“I haven’t answered, but yes they did ask that of me.” Severus asked.

Terry looked worried. “You don’t want to…?”

“I just need to check and make sure that it can fit into my schedule. At the very least I will ensure that she can take care of you.” Severus said with a bit of reluctance that he did his best to conceal. How could he possibly say no to Terry?

Terry laughed happily and moved to give him a hug. “Thank you Severus, thank you!” He said.

So how will you be babysitting?” Harry asked with a soft grin; he knew that Severus was hooked into doing the job now.

“Mrs. Weasley is to be allowed to take care of her patients, but only those from the center that she helped to achieve pregnancy. She will help them along during their pregnancies. My job will be to watch her and ensure she does not repeat any of the idiocy that Pansy Parkinson inflicted upon the wizarding populace.” Severus said in a sour tone.

“Oh, she’d NEVER do that!” Terry said firmly. “I know she wouldn’t…”

“Perhaps not, Terry, but the Ministry considers her guilty until proven innocent. You see, they don’t have either of the Parkinsons to put the blame upon, so Mrs. Weasley is an easy target for all of the blame since she turned herself in.” Damitri answered.

“That’s not right…”

“Terry, the Minister of Magic makes all kinds of mistakes.” Harry assured. “After all, he was sure that my Dragon was going to go dark and take off on some wild killing spree.” He commented with a smirk.

That confused Terry, who didn’t think that Draco could ever hurt a fly. “Why would he think that…?”

“Good question.” Draco said, rolling his eyes. “I never did anything that could be even considered dark on my own. And all I want is to be left alone to be with my husband and raise my family.”
