Chapter-4
Inevitable
"D-d-da-dad." Albus stammers, "You - you said that you won't be back until next week." He has never been so terrified in his entire life. Dad is glaring at him. His eyes are flashing menacingly. Albus looks at dad and shivers because this is the man who defeated the most dangerous wizard of all time. He's the head auror and people do not mess up with him. They don't dare to even joke with him. As far as Albus knows, only mom, uncle Ron and aunt Hermione are close to dad.
Dad has always been emotionally detached. Albus doesn't know how dad knows about his crush on Draco but he does and he has become even more distant ever since Albus broke up with Scorpius.
Dad pulls back, takes a deep breath and asks blankly, "That's besides the point. How did you find this room?"
"You forgot to hide it." Albus replies honestly because it's impossible to lie to dad. Dad always knows when you're lying and he hates being lied to.
When dad only crosses his arms and continues staring at him, Albus whispers, "I wanted to know more about Draco."
He has definitely said something wrong because dad's eyes narrow and his nostrils flare.
He opens his mouth to say something but someone else beats him to it.
"It's potions master Malfoy for you, Albus." That someone else is Scorpius who is looking very disheveled right now. With his piercing silver eyes, a good height and lean, strong body, he looks like a carbon copy of Draco.
His lip is cut and his nose is bleeding and there's a scratch on his right cheek.
"What happened to you?" Albus asks, alarmed. Why Scorpius decided to become an auror instead of a potions master is beyond him. He was always very brilliant in potions.
"None of your business." He answers coolly, "You've no right to pry into head auror Potter's memories."
He limps forward and Albus swallows another concerned question.
"There was no other way to know more about his past." Albus argues politely.
"I would tell you that you're merely obsessed with him and I would also tell you to stop obsessing over a man you know nothing about but it would be fruitless." Dad snaps angrily at him.
Albus looks at him, unable to understand. Mr. Zabini had said something like this too.
Dad continues sharply, "So, I would only warn you to stay out of my mind."
Albus sucks in a breath at that and continues looking quietly into his father's eyes.
"Yes, I know that you leglimised me while I was asleep. I'm not a fool."
"Harry." It's mom's voice. Albus looks behind dad to find her standing at the entryway with a frown and furrowed brows.
"I will just-" Scorpius starts.
Mom sighs, "It's okay, Scorpius. Go and sit down in the dining room. Mimsi will serve some lunch and I'll come and heal you in a few minutes."
Scorpius murmurs, "Hmmmm." and walks out of the room.
"Harry, I told you not to keep your memories like this." Mom mutters as she comes inside and stands beside dad who is now looking at the wall.
Dad doesn't say anything. Nor does Albus. So it's mom who continues with a sigh, "You knew that this would happen eventually."
Albus looks at her in confusion. How could anyone have known that he would look into dad's memories.
Dad still doesn't say anything but his jaw clenches tightly.
"Harry, he's our son. You-"
Dad cuts mom off with a coldly murmured, "Is it too much to expect him to stay out of my mind, then?"
Mom sighs yet again and looks at Albus who's still very confused. He doesn't understand anything.
"There's no point of asking you to stay away from Malfoy, is there." Mom says and it's not really a question. It's a statement.
"I don't understand." Albus finally says, "How could dad have known and why do you think so?"
Instead of answering him, mom looks at dad and utters gently, "You know that it's time. We can't change our past."
"Leave me alone." Dad says blankly and continues staring at the opposite wall, "Send Scorpius inside."
"Why?" Albus asks before he can stop himself and it's a mistake because dad's eyes snap at him and they are shining with rage.
"You don't have to answer that. I'm sorry, dad. I'll just leave." Albus murmurs and walks out. He's followed by mom who looks tired and irritated but doesn't snap at him.
Harry restores all the memories back inside his mind before sitting down on the chair. He places his elbows on the table and covers his face with his hands. It's finally happening. He had known that it eventually would and there's no way to stop it now. He curses his past, clumsy self for falling in love with Malfoy and risking everything. He curses Malfoy for being a coward. He was an utter fool for believing that Malfoy would love someone like his past self.
"Head auror Potter." Scorpius murmurs softly. Harry looks up to find him closing the door behind him.
He looks exactly like his father. Yet the difference between the father and son leaves Harry astounded. Scorpius settles down across from him and places his hand on Harry's. It's warm and comforting.
Scorpius looks at him with eyes that are like his father, except that they are warm and pure, unlike Malfoy's deceptive ones. Scorpius picks Harry's hand and presses a kiss on the back before placing it back on the table.
"Is it time?" Scorpius asks in a low voice.
Harry says, "Yes."
"Don't worry. You've taught me well." Scorpius says calmly.
Harry takes a deep breath and pulls his chair back. Scorpius does too and Harry walks closer to the boy. He places both his hands on Scorpius's shoulders and looks deep inside his eyes.
Harry sighs deeply before starting in a soft voice, "Just remember that I'm sorry."
Scorpius places his hand on Harry's and replies with a sparkle in his eyes, "Mr. Potter, you're not forcing me to do this. You don't have to be sorry or feel guilty."
Harry pulls his hands back and backs off and isn't surprised when Scorpius embraces him. He closes his eyes and hugs Scorpius back with a sigh.
Just before Scorpius leaves, the boy stops at the entryway and looks at him for a few moments. He doesn't say anything but his eyes speak a lot. Unlike Malfoy, who said many things and meant none of them, Scorpius is a man of few words.
"Mr. Potter, I-" The boy starts calmly. He stops and clears his throat before continuing, "I wanted to say that - that sometimes people change with time. Sometimes, you need to take a leap of faith to actually believe that they have changed."
Harry swallows and averts his eyes. He has moved on and doesn't want to change things. He doesn't want Draco Malfoy anymore.
He breathes deeply and then looks back at the boy who's still waiting at the door.
"I'll wait for you to come back. Also, I'll -" He mutters and continues in a low, embarrassed voice, "I'll miss you."
Scorpius chuckles, amused and his eyes sparkle again, "I know that you will. Take care, Mr. Potter. Goodbye."
"Goodbye." Harry says and smiles to himself as the boy leaves.
