Chapter 36

It was the feeling of warm hands caressing his stomach that woke Harry up the next morning. He blinked sleepily, trying to get his foggy, clouded with sleep brain to wake up and work. Rubbing his hand in his eyes, he finally caught sight of something faintly sparkling around one of his fingers. Frowning he looked closer at it and his mouth fell open when he finally remembered everything that had happened last night. He had told Draco he wanted to keep the baby and Draco had proposed to him.

He was engaged to Draco.

Draco was his fiancé.

The giddy feeling rose up again and he smiled happily.

Draco was looking at Harry thoroughly amused. Harry was very entertaining this morning. If he was honest, he had to admit that he had been scared Harry would have had second thoughts about their engagement. Seeing him smiling however erased his fears; Harry still wanted to marry him. No second thoughts.

A pale hand gripped the tanned one with the ring and their fingers intertwined. "That ring looks good on you." Draco murmured smiling and bent down to place a soft kiss on the red inviting lips.

"Hm, we need a ring for you too." Harry smiled back, returning the kiss.

Draco chuckled. "Don't worry, I bought the matching one too. It's waiting in my study."

"Why didn't you put yours on yesterday?" Harry asked curiously, his fingers absently drawing circles on Draco's chest.

Draco looked away, cheekbones tinted pink with embarrassment. "Because I didn't know for sure you would say yes." He muttered.

Harry blinked and chuckled, leaning over to kiss his cheek. "For all the arrogance you display, it's very surprising to see you insecure. I guess Malfoys can be insecure too."

"Shut up." Draco huffed, making Harry laugh.

Draco pouted, but soon chuckled too.

Eventually their laughter stopped, leaving them in peaceful silence.

Draco maneuvered them both so that he was lying on his back, Harry on top of him, his head on his chest and their legs tangled together underneath the blankets.

Draco started caressing Harry's back, making the man purr.

"So when are we going to tell the boys the good news?" Draco broke the silence, staring at the ceiling.

Harry moved a bit and replied, "They are going to notice my ring as soon as they are home, so we can tell them today."

Draco bit on his lower lip before releasing it. "And when are we going to tell them about the baby?" He asked softly, not wanting to destroy the peace. He gave the choice to Harry, not wanting to push the man.

It was silent for a couple of minutes and Draco became restless. Why didn't Harry answer? Was he mad now? One glance downwards reassured him; Harry was staring at the opposite wall with a pensive look. He was thinking about it, not getting mad. That was a relief.

"I want to wait for a few weeks more. Then we can tell them." Harry finally answered calmly.

"Why a few weeks?" Draco asked curiously, but was inwardly very happy that he only had to wait a few more weeks until he could tell Teddy and Scorpius that they would be getting a sibling. He had a feeling Scorpius would be overjoyed.

"To make sure the baby stays safe. Is that all right?" Harry looked up at him.

Draco smiled and tightened his grip. "No problem."

They stayed in the bed for another hour before deciding it was time to get up and get the boys – before Severus went mad.

They dressed after having taken a quick shower and went downstairs where the house elves were busy with preparing breakfast.

"You stay here while I'll go and get Teddy and Scorpius." Draco told him while walking to the fireplace.

Harry frowned. "Why do I need to stay here?"

"Because Severus has a very bad temper in the morning and dealing with two boys won't help improving his mood." Draco replied dryly, making Harry chuckle. "And I don't want you to experience that."

"When is that man in a good mood?" Harry asked, rolling his eyes.

"Good point." Draco smirked and pecked Harry's lips. "Be right back."

Harry shook his head amused and after having watched Draco disappearing through the Floo, he made his way to breakfast, feeling extremely hungry.

Draco landed on a carpeted floor and heard a muffled shout from somewhere downstairs. He shook his head in exasperation and decided it was time to save the boys from a future trauma.

He concentrated on the muffled voices and followed them, coming to a stop in front of a dark wooden door. The living room.

Two little heads shot up quickly when they heard the door open and Scorpius squealed in delight when he saw his papa standing in the doorway.

"Papa!" He jumped off the couch and ran to him, arms stretching out, wanting a hug after being separated for a night.

Draco complied and bent down to pick up his on, settling him on his hip.

Teddy had stayed on the couch, only now looking up from his book.

"Have you two been good?" Draco smiled.

Severus glared. "My house is still in one piece." He replied stiffly.

"That's good." Draco smirked and placed Scorpius back on the ground. "It's time for you to pack your stuff, boys. Daddy is waiting at home."

Scorpius beamed and immediately ran to his room, Teddy following him at a calmer pace, though he was excited to go back too. He had missed his dad very much and hadn't stopped worrying about him all night, even though he knew dad was safe.

"How did your Valentine's Day go?" Severus' lip curled up in disgust from uttering the name of that meaningless and idiotic holiday and brought his cup of strong black coffee to his mouth, inhaling the delicious aroma of burnt coffee beans.

"Fantastic! Harry agreed to marry me and we're keeping the baby." Draco informed him, beaming with joy.

Severus, who had just taken a sip of his warm beverage, coughed and spluttered, almost choking in his coffee from shock. "You what?" He finally asked in a scratchy voice, thinking his ears had deceived him.

"I'm going to marry Harry and we're keeping the baby." Draco repeated beaming.

Onyx black eyes stared at him in disbelief. "Please tell me you're joking." He sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose.

Draco frowned. "Why would I be joking?"

"Don't you think it's a bit too soon to think of marriage already?" Severus pressed, wondering when he had become Draco's voice of reason.

"Well, yes, if we were strangers, but we know each other very well. I dare say I know more of him than his so called friends ever did." Draco replied and crossed his arms.

Severus opened his mouth to reason with him, try to make him see sense before he did something stupid, but realized very quickly that Draco would not be convinced this time. He recognized the stubborn glint in Draco's grey eyes – so much like his father's – and knew that any objection and valid reason why marriage was a bad idea now, would just go in one ear and go out the other.

Well, he is an adult now. If he wants to make mistakes, it is his life, he thought sourly. He had to let go of his godson sooner or later – he couldn't keep standing on the sidelines, telling Draco what to do and what not.

He is an adult now, he reminded himself and sighed. "If you are sure about this, then I suppose congratulations are in order."

Draco smiled and Severus was struck by how happy the man looked now. Maybe Potter was good for something. Maybe.

Severus scowled. "Tell your fiancé that the antidote is ready to be used."

Draco nodded. "He'll be happy to hear that."

Severus hmph'd and scowled harder.

No sooner had they ended their conversation and Scorpius came running back in the room, his backpack bouncing on his back, Teddy following him with his black blue bag in his hand.

"We're ready to go, Draco." Teddy said calmly, his light blue – almost mint green – eyes sparkling in the weak sunlight shining through a small window.

"Thank uncle Sev for allowing you to stay the night and say good bye to him." Draco ordered them.

Teddy and Scorpius did what they were told to and afterwards they followed Draco to Severus' office, stepping beside him in the fireplace and holding his hand.

Harry looked up from his plate with scrambled eggs and crispy bacon when he heard the Floo activate and he smiled when he heard Teddy asking where he was. Merlin, but he had missed his two sons.

"I'm in the dining room, sweetie!" He yelled and heard three pair of feet coming to him. He turned to face the door and opened his arms to hug the two boys who came running to him.

"We missed you, daddy." Scorpius chirped and lovingly rubbed his head against Harry's shoulder.

"I missed you too, sweeties." Harry smiled and kissed them both on their forehead. He looked up at Draco who was standing a few feet behind the the boys. "Was he moody?"

Draco rolled his eyes and came to sit across from Harry, urging the boys to take a seat too and eat breakfast. Scorpius sat on Harry's right side and Teddy on his left.

"Of course he was moody. Have you ever seen that man in a good mood?" Draco snorted and shook his head.

"Well, no, but maybe he was different with you?" Harry shrugged.

"Sev doesn't change for anyone." Draco smiled wryly. "Oh yes, he told me that the antidote is ready."

"That's amazing news! I'll write some colleagues and tell them they can pick it up here – if you don't mind that, of course." Harry said hastily.

"No problem – it's better than having you outside." Draco murmured.

Harry bit back his lashing retort, not wanting to ruin the happy mood. He would have a word with Draco later about his over protectiveness. He couldn't possibly stay inside for the rest of his life.

"Daddy, do you want to know what Teddy and me did yesterday?" Scorpius asked excitedly and bounced with his legs, swinging them hard.

"I'd love to hear what you did last night, sweetie." Harry smiled encouragingly.

Immediately, Scorpius launched into a story where he and Teddy built a castle with blocks and played with it.

It wasn't until Teddy saw something sparkling in the light whenever Harry lifted his left hand that the young boy realized that something was wrong. Without thinking, he grabbed Harry's hand and hold it still, staring at the golden ring, glittering innocently.

A funny feeling – something like anxiety – made his stomach turn unpleasantly. Why was his dad wearing a ring all of a sudden? Teddy was sure his hand had been bare yesterday. He glanced at Draco's hands and saw a golden ring on his hand too. What was going on here?

"Teddy?"

He looked at his dad and saw him looking at him in a rather apprehensive way. Only then did Teddy notice that Scorpius had stopped talking and that he and Draco were looking at him curiously.

"Why are you wearing a ring, dad?" Teddy asked, tightening his grip unconsciously. He narrowed his eyes when he saw a blush rising on his dad's face. Looking at Draco, he saw the man smirking but at the same time looking proud.

"Daddy?" Scorpius looked at Harry with wide eyes, curious as to why daddy was blushing so much and why his papa was smiling so widely.

Harry cleared his throat. "Well, eh, Teddy, Scorpius, there's something your papa and I have to tell you." He smiled shyly.

"Your daddy and I are going to marry." Draco announced proudly and his grin got even wider.

Scorpius immediately began to squeal and bounce up and down on his chair in excitement, clapping his hands, before jumping off and toddling over to his papa first and then to his daddy to give them a big hug.

"Really, daddy? You really going to marry papa?" Scorpius asked; his big grey eyes full of adoration.

Harry laughed. "Yes, I'm really going to marry your papa."

While Scorpius was busy with squealing from happiness and jumping up and down, Teddy was looking at the adults in shock.

Never had he expected his dad to marry Draco so soon. Of course he remembered telling Draco that he wouldn't mind it if he married his dad, but he had thought it would be at least two to three more years before Draco would propose. Had he been planning this all along and had he just waited to have Teddy's permission?

What really shocked Teddy the most was that his dad had obviously said yes. When he had been together with Ginny, he had never once mentioned marrying her and he had been together with her for years. Draco asked him after a few months and he said yes. That obviously meant he loved Draco very much.

Teddy bit on his lip, not knowing how he should react. On one hand, he was happy that his dad was happy – he was practically glowing with joy – but on the other hand, he was kind of sad too. It was ridiculous but he felt like he was losing his dad to Draco. He knew it was stupid to think like that; his dad still loved him and it wasn't like he would get rid of him once he married Draco, but all the same …

He startled when he felt two warm hands gripping his own and he stared right into worried emerald green eyes.

"Teddy, what do you think of it?" Dad asked him softly.

Teddy was suddenly reminded of a similar scene months ago, when dad had asked him if he would mind him dating Draco. Like then, he knew that his answer would decide what his dad would do. If he said he didn't like the thought of his dad marrying Draco, dad would put the marriage off until Teddy felt more comfortable with it. The fact that his dad obviously cared much about his opinion and thus wouldn't get rid of him, warmed Teddy and he smiled faintly. If marrying Draco would make his dad happy, then he was happy for his dad. Besides, Draco wasn't that bad to have as a stepfather.

"I'm happy for you, dad." Teddy whispered and hugged his dad tightly, burying his face in a warm strong shoulder.

"Thank you, Teddy." His dad whispered back and hugged him tightly.

Still Teddy couldn't shake the feeling that his dad kept something else from him. But that was ridiculous right? Marriage was the only surprise his dad could have. Yes, he was being silly worrying that his dad was keeping something from him.

"That went well, don't you think?" Draco murmured in Harry's ear, slipping his arms around Harry's waist from behind. He placed his head on Harry's shoulder and looked through the window at Teddy and Scorpius who were playing with the bit of snow that was still left.

Harry smiled and placed his hands over Draco's. "Yes, I'm glad that Teddy took it so well. I was afraid he wouldn't like the thought of me marrying you." He confessed sheepishly.

Draco chuckled. "Well, I did ask him if he would like it if I would marry you one day."

"Oh?" Harry raised an eyebrow and looked over his shoulder in mischievous grey eyes. "When did you do that?"

"When you were gone." Draco muttered, not wanting to remember that particular time. "I went to talk with him and we went from reassuring him you would return to me marrying you one day and if he would be okay with that."

Harry laughed surprised. "Interesting turn in a conversation. What did he tell you?"

"He said that he wouldn't mind it; that he liked me better than Weasley." Draco smirked.

"Yeah, he never got along with her." Harry sighed.

"Smart boy."

A smack on his arms was his reply.

Two days later, Harry had contacted a few of his former colleagues and they were rather eager to accept the antidote. It had been an awkward moment trying to explain how he exactly had come up with the antidote. Finally he just told them that he had a friend who was a Potions Master and he had been helping Harry with the case.

When they had gathered the vials with the antidote, together with the recipe (seeing as Snape refused to make more than was required), they had make Harry promise to thank the Potions Master for them. Harry would have loved to give Snape the credit he clearly deserved, but he knew that if he even mentioned his name, the Ministry wouldn't stop until they had found him and had put him on a trial. Harry stayed by his opinion: Snape had done a lot for the Light side, he deserved peace and quiet now. Besides he had to grudgingly admit that Snape wasn't that bad – if you got used to the sarcastic comments that is.

18th of February

On the day of his appointment, Harry woke up to the feeling of soft kisses pressed to his stomach. He stretched and chuckled when Draco's head appeared from beneath the sheets, his blond hair thoroughly messed up.

"What were you doing?" Harry smiled and eagerly accepted the kiss that Draco gave him.

Draco settled next to him, his arms still around Harry's waist, caressing his stomach. "I was saying good morning to our baby." He answered shrugging.

"You do know that it will be a while before I start showing, right?" Harry raised an eyebrow amused.

"So? It's not a crime to say good morning to our baby. Although I can't wait until you really start showing." Draco mused grinning.

Harry eyed him warily. "You're probably going to be one of those that won't be able to keep their hands of their partner's stomach, right?"

"It's not my fault that you'll look cute with a round belly." Draco grinned, kissing him hard on his mouth.

Harry scowled and pinched Draco's arm harshly, making the poor blond yelp and rub the abused spot. "Don't ever call me cute again." He huffed.

"That was indeed not very cute." Draco murmured, looking pained.

Harry smirked. "Good."

When he wanted to get up, two strong arms hold him back and a mouth began to suck in his neck.

Harry groaned softly. "Draco, not now. I have to get up for my appointment."

"I'm sure we still have some time." Draco whispered before pushing Harry back on the bed, settling himself between his spread legs.

"Ah, fuck it." Harry sighed and gave up, spreading his legs more.

Draco smirked. "I'm planning to do that."

Half an hour later, Harry fell back on his back sweating and panting, Draco falling softly on top of him, burying his face in Harry's shoulder.

"Merlin, that was hot." Harry murmured breathlessly; dazed green eyes staring at the ceiling, feeling his heartbeat slow down.

Draco grinned and fell down on the bed next to him, ranking a hand through his sweaty hair. "Told you I would make it worth your time." He murmured and kissed Harry's cheek.

"You're unbelievable sometimes." Harry sighed, but smiled satisfied.

"Ah, but you enjoyed it, right?" Draco chuckled.

"How could I have not enjoyed it?" Harry murmured, blushing.

Draco smirked and traced patters on Harry's arm.

"Now I really have to go." Harry murmured and sat up.

"I don't know if Severus will be up to babysitting again." Draco winced at asking his godfather again. He was feeling sorry for the old man. He was probably driven crazy by babysitting Teddy and Scorpius so much. Scorpius wasn't a bad boy per se, but he could be a …handful sometimes.

"Snape won't be the one babysitting." Harry frowned. "I feel bad for placing them with Snape every time we go away."

"Are we going to take them with us?" Draco asked surprised. Hadn't Harry told him he wanted to wait for a few more weeks before telling them?

Harry bit on his lip and looked at him. "No, I was thinking that you could stay with them while I'm gone. I mean, then they can stay here and they can spend some time with you."

"Wait, you want to go alone?" Draco frowned, not liking the thought of Harry going somewhere alone. Yes, it was the hospital and chances of Harry being kidnapped there were slim to none, but he didn't want to take the chance. Call him paranoid, but so be it.

Harry sighed, already guessing why Draco was so apprehensive to let him go alone. "Draco, please, you can't keep me locked up in the manor. It's Saint Mungos I'm going to, so there is no chance that something will happen again."

"You don't know that." Draco murmured scowling, crossing his arms.

"Draco, I love you and I love your company, but if you go with me now, you're going to drive me insane. It's just a check up to see if the baby stays in my womb. It's not like we're going to see the baby now." Harry glared at him. "I want some time alone. That's not too much to ask for, is it? Besides I'll be only gone for half an hour at most. Not longer."

"Fine, go alone then." Draco snapped and turned around in bed.

Harry sighed and rolled his eyes. "Draco, don't be like that, please." He reached out to touch Draco's arm, but stopped when his lover stiffened.

"Just go, Harry." Draco told him stiffly.

Harry growled annoyed and stormed out of the room, slamming the bathroom door with a loud BAM.

Draco winced when he heard that and sighed, rubbing in his eyes. He hadn't meant to get angry or to make Harry angry, but he couldn't help it that he was worried about his lover. He was pregnant now which meant he was more vulnerable than ever. If something happened to him now …

Draco shook his head, scowling at the ceiling. He had to stop thinking like that. Harry was right: he was going to the hospital, a highly secured place. There was no way something would happen to Harry. Besides it was only for half an hour. That wasn't long. He could wait that long.

Draco groaned; he knew he could be overbearing sometimes and maybe he was being a bit overprotective of Harry, but could you really blame him? The murderer was still out there, biding his time. And now that Harry was pregnant, it would only be a matter of time before the murderer appeared again. And then what? Harry would be in no condition to fight – Draco wouldn't let him. Or what if the murderer turned his attention to their boys?

…

All right, so thoughts like those really didn't help calm his nerves. Draco took a deep breath and sat up, just in time to hear the faint sound of Flooing. He would try to forget about the murderer for now; it wasn't like he could do anything about it anyway.

He would wake up Teddy and Scorpius and have breakfast with them while waiting for Harry to return back. Only half an hour. He could do that.

With a scowl, Harry stumbled out of the fireplace of Saint Mungos. Usually he didn't leave in a middle of a fight, but he didn't know what he could have said that would have placated Draco. All that he had said had been true: he didn't want to leave Teddy and Scorpius with Snape again and he needed some breathing space. He understood why Draco was so wary about him leaving without anyone, but this was a hospital for Merlin's sake! It wasn't as if someone would be able to kidnap him in here. Besides he would be only gone for half an hour at most.

He sighed and ranked a hand through his hair, flattening it down a bit. He would talk to Draco later. Now it was time to go to his appointment.

He quickly made his way to Rowland's office, making sure to stay to the sides as to not attract attraction. He really didn't want to end up in the papers again.

Softly knocking on the door, he waited until he heard the affirmative 'Come in.'

Rowland looked up when his door opened and was surprised to see Potter entering alone. He had expected Malfoy to be with him this time too. After all, today was the check up whether or not the baby had stayed in the womb or not. One would think that the father would be anxious to hear the good or bad news.

"Ah, Mister Potter, good morning." He greeted him and shook his hand.

"Good morning, sir." Potter smiled and sat down.

"Excuse me, but I can't help but notice that Mister Malfoy isn't here today." Rowland commented, leaning back in his chair, placing his quill on his desk.

"Yes, he had to stay at home to watch my godson and his son." Potter replied frowning.

"Ah like that." Rowland nodded in understanding. He stood up and grabbed his wand. "All right, Mister Potter, please sit on the examination table and expose your stomach. I'm going to check the baby now."

Potter nodded and went over to the examination table, settling down on the paper and lifting up his sweatshirt.

"Constitutum locus infantis." Rowland muttered and pointed his wand at Potter's stomach.

A fuzzy grey screen appeared in the air and Rowland stared at it intently.

"And?" Potter asked a bit impatiently after three minutes of silence.

Rowland waved again with his wand and the screen disappeared in a cloud of white smoke.

"Well, you have nothing to worry about, Mister Potter. Your baby is safe in your womb."

Potter sighed relieved and Rowland couldn't help but wondering what had changed Potter's mind about the baby. When he had heard about the pregnancy, it had looked like Potter wouldn't want anything to do with the baby and Rowland had been prepared to hear a request for an abortion. Now however it seemed like Potter had decided to keep the baby. Which made Rowland wonder how exactly Malfoy had convinced Potter to keep the baby.

"Excuse me, but I have to ask this: are you planning on keeping the baby?" Rowland asked, sitting back down in his chair.

Potter pulled his sweatshirt back down and returned back to his seat. "Yes, I'm going to keep the baby."

Rowland blinked surprised, but nodded. He grabbed a sheet of paper and started writing a list. "Considering you're almost two months far, you'll soon start having morning sickness which will last until your fourth month, maybe longer. You can ingest potions against the morning sickness, but that's no guarantee those will work. You have to continue to ingest the potions you're already taking to make sure your body can cope with the changes." He told Potter and wanted to hand over the paper when a knock on the door interrupted them.

"Yes?" Rowland called with an apologetic look towards Potter who shrugged.

A young woman entered the office nervously, rubbing her hands together. "Sir, I apologize for disturbing you, but Healer Rocher demands to speak to you, claiming it's too important to wait."

Before Rowland could give an answer, the woman was pushed aside by a tall broad ginger haired man who was looking troubled. He passed Harry without looking at him once and came to a hold next to Rowland. "Can you believe that the Ministry is cutting off my financial supplies? They claim that my experiments are unneeded and unnecessary!"

Harry decided it was time to leave before the man would explode from sheer frustration and slipped out of the room, the young woman walking away muttering and visibly shaken.

It wasn't until he was almost at the fireplace that he remembered that he had left the paper with instructions in Rowland's office. He sighed, but turned around and walked the stairs back up to the office.

He wanted to knock, but stopped when he heard his name spoken in the room. Looking around, he noticed he was all alone, no one to stop him from eavesdropping. Ear pressed against the door, he concentrated on the conversation taking place inside the room.

"What, are you really saying that Potter is pregnant? From Malfoy?" Rocher asked incredulously.

Harry heard Rowland sigh. "Yes, I mean it: Harry Potter is pregnant with Draco Malfoy's child. I know it's hard to believe, but it's true."

"And he's keeping it?"

"Yes, quite a surprise isn't it? When he heard the news of his pregnancy, Potter hadn't looked too thrilled with it. I was almost afraid he would pass out from shock."

"And Malfoy? How did he react?"

"Ecstatic. Besides himself from happiness." Rowland sounded disgusted.

"So Malfoy wanted the child and Potter didn't. Do you think Malfoy forced Potter to keep his child?"

"Could be. It would ensure that Potter never left him and you know he can use the positive publicity. I mean, it isn't as if the Malfoys have a good reputation now. I'm sure Malfoy couldn't be happier with the pregnancy than he is now. I feel sorry for Potter, though it would serve him right if he lost the fetus. Why on earth would he want a child from such a scumbag like Malfoy?"

Rage coursed through Harry's veins and his hand tightened around his wand. He wanted nothing more than to barge in there and curse those assholes so badly even Voldemort would pale in fright. How dare they talk dirt about Draco? Who were they to judge him? They didn't know Draco; all they saw was the picture the media had presented after Lucius' trial. Harry shook his head disgusted; he had known that not many people were happy with him being together with Draco, but he had at least thought that Rowland would keep his prejudices to himself.

And here I was thinking Healers were neutral, Harry thought disgusted and stepped back from the door. He could feel his magic humming and crackling, ready to lash out the second he lost control. He had to leave now before he would let the hospital explode.

He turned around and stormed away back to the fireplace, all the while thinking of a way to pay Rowland back for his treatment. He wouldn't let him get away with slandering Draco's good name so easily.

Draco looked up at the sound of the Floo activating and became concerned when he saw Harry's enraged face.

"Harry, did something happen? Is the baby okay?" He asked fearfully, standing up and walking over to his lover, completely forgetting that he had been angry with him not even half an hour ago.

Harry held out his hand while leaning against the wall. "Stay back, please, Draco." He said through clenched teeth and Draco wanted to protest until he felt the dangerous humming of Harry's magic and he halted immediately. He had been there when Harry had defeated Voldemort so he knew just how powerful the man was and he knew how bad it would be if he lost control of his magic.

It felt like hours – but was in fact mere minutes – before Harry lowered his hand and slid down on the floor exhausted, a sheen of sweat glistering on his forehead.

Draco immediately rushed over to him, gathering him in his arms, Harry's head against his shoulder. "Harry, will you please tell me what happened to make you that angry. Is it – the baby?" He swallowed at the last question and tightened his grip around Harry's shoulders.

Harry sighed and closed his own arms around Draco's waist. "The baby is fine, no problems there."

Draco let relief wash over him for a moment, glad that nothing had happened with their baby, before frowning. "If the baby's okay, then why were you so angry?"

"I forgot the list of instructions Rowland had written for me and went back to his office." Harry began and paused to calm down again. Anger took over his whole body every time he thought back to what he had heard during his eavesdropping. "He was there with another Healer and they were discussing my pregnancy."

Draco went still, his form tense.

"Basically, it came down to the fact that they couldn't believe I would want to keep a child of you and that it would be better for me if I lost the baby. They believe that you only want this baby because of the fact that it would make you look good in the public's eye." Harry said disgusted, glaring at the opposite wall. "It took all of my control to not storm in there and curse them to hell. Who do they think they are? They don't know you, so they should keep their fucking mouth shut! It isn't any of their business what we do."

Draco sighed and caressed Harry's back, rubbing it soothingly. "So we aren't going back to that Healer. Then we have to look for another one to do the checkups. It has to be someone trustworthy though. Someone who knows to keep their mouth shut."

Harry relaxed slowly, his muscles feeling tired of tense state he had kept them in. "Can we look for someone later? I'm not in the mood now."

"Of course, no problem." Draco smiled faintly and kissed Harry's sleep. "I'm sorry for my behaviour."

Harry shook his head. "Don't be. I know why you were angry and I understand it, but you know my reasons why I wanted to go alone today." He pressed an open mouthed kiss in Draco's pale smooth neck. "Besides, it's not like you have to stay home every time now. By the time my next check up arrives, the boys will know about the baby and then we can take them with us."

Draco smiled. "I'm sure they are going to be happy with their new sibling."

"Where are they actually?"

"They're still sleeping. I tried to wake them up, but they grumbled at me and I could swear Teddy growled." Draco told him astonished.

Harry laughed softly. "Yeah, he does that sometimes if he's too sleepy."

"His father would have been so proud." Draco said dryly.

"I'm sure he would have been." Harry chuckled and leant over to kiss him on his lips.

"Breakfast?" Draco murmured against his lips, remembering that Harry was eating for two now. He resolved himself to pay better attention to Harry's meals. He would need the energy and the vitamins now more than ever.

"Later. Can't we go back to bed and sleep a bit more? I'm still a bit tired." Harry muttered sighing.

"Of course we can." Draco smiled and stood up, carefully pulling Harry back up and intertwined their fingers, leading him back to bed where they rested for two more hours before they were woken up by Teddy and Scorpius whose growling stomachs demanded to be fed.

Will you be my daddy?
