Chapter 5

They were eating breakfast three days later when an owl arrived bearing a brown paper and twine wrapped package.

Draco blinked, "Blaise?"

Harry nearly choked on his bit of eggs, coughing before stammering, "Huh?"

Draco pointed to the owl, "That's Blaise's owl Iris."

The owl landed in front of Harry.

Harry handed it a bit of sausage and it pecked at his fingers. He winced, "Ouch," using a minor healing spell to heal the small bite, before opening the package to find a letter.

'September 26, 1998

Villa d' Aglia,

Turino, Piemonte, Italia

Harry Potter,

It might seem presumptuous to write to you but I owe you thanks for ensuring that the British Ministry didn't punish me for being Slytherin. I also owe you thanks for helping me get out of the country.

The reason for my letter besides to offer my humble thanks is that I would like to court you.

I am heir to no less then two vaults in at least five countries, ten houses and four vacations places in Spain, Greece, France and the Caribbean. I know you have custody of your godson and I want to assure you that he will always have a place with us. If you wish to engage tutors to travel with us I can certainly afford it for I doubt you will wish to be parted from him. I have an army of house elves to see to our every need and income through dozens of rental properties, patents, stocks and other investments.

I wish only to prove myself as one worthy of your esteem. I am currently studying to be certified as an expert in Transfiguration.

Enclosed are a few gifts of my esteem.

First is a stuffed winged horse for your godson and translated illustrated storybook of Italian children's stories. For you I had included a golden and ruby bracelet bearing a griffin. The gem eyes are charmed to glow if food or drink served to you has potions in them. There is also a lion pendant that is charmed to protect you from common attack curses and hexes.

I promise you Harry Potter that I have only honorable intentions and I will never make your godson feel anything less then wanted. If we are Bonded in the future then I will make him my heir if we have no children of our own.

Your servant,

Blaise Zabini'

Harry moved his plate to the side charming his hands and the letter clean from grease. He could hardly breathe as he set the letter aside to unpack the box. The lumpy gift was the stuffed winged horse, the wings were iridescent and changed colours if you shifted the angle and the hooves had gold thread. He gasped, "This is too pretty for a baby…"

Draco blinked, "What does Blaise want and what is he sending you a children's toy for?"

Harry was startled by Draco's voice, "Your friend Blaise wants…" he stammered, "…to court me. He sent this for Teddy…"

Draco was floored, "Blaise wants to what!"

Harry coughed nervously, "He thanked me for helping him with the Ministry and getting him out of the country. He wants to court me. He said if I chose to accept that he would treat Teddy as his own even making him his heir. Blaise told me he had a large inheritance and is studying to be certified as an expert in Transfiguration."

"That is an expensive toy, I had a Dragon of similar value when I was small. A Hebridean Black; it had violet wings, purple eyes, obsidian scales, ridges on it's back and an arrow shaped tail. I dragged it around for six years until father took it away, I wore off the ridges and the arrow at the end of tail came off. It was a Wiccaning gift from my godfather Severus."

Harry sighed, "What is a Wiccaning?"

Draco raised an eyebrow, "A neutral magic ceremony that casts a protective circle on an heir or heiress of an ancient line using the combined magic of the parents and godparents. There are usually two godparents but in rare cases one. Didn't Teddy have one?"

Harry shook his head, "I don't think so, I wasn't there if there was."

"Ancient ways are being lost." Draco huffed, "We need to arrange for the Wiccaning for the boy soon, it can't be cast on a child older then two. Even in the middle of a bloody war, Andromeda should have insisted. She's a Black."

"Did you have a second godparent?" Harry asked curious.

Draco winced, "Aunt Bella, which is one of the reasons she was the only one to punish me with the Cruciatus after I failed to kill Dumbledore. It was a reflection on her; Father punished me with it when I was younger. I was protected against people who weren't part of my Wiccaning."

"I don't know anything about this 'ceremony'…"

Draco sighed, "Ask Andromeda, as his grandmother she has a responsibility to oversee the ceremony. You're his legal guardian, think carefully about who you want to give their magic to protect Teddy." He cleared his throat, "So what are you going to do about Blaise?"

Harry blushed, avoiding answering as he dug into the box once more. He pulled out a flat brown paper wrapped package, he tore off the wrapping to find the book Blaise's letter mentioned. He opened it, skimming the tales. They weren't too dark and the pictures were nice…

Draco stared, "At least it isn't the Toadstool Tales or the book of tales that Aunt Bella gave me. The Bad House Elf was pretty nasty…they were very anti-Muggle and pretty vicious to magical creatures."

Harry set the book on the table, already overwhelmed by the gifts for Teddy.

Draco spoke softly, "Just make sure you test it for spells."

Harry's eyes narrowed, "You think Blaise would hurt Teddy?"

Draco chewed on his lip, "No, he wouldn't hurt a child but you should start making it a custom to check your mail for dangerous spells or potion laced letters. You freed a Death Eater, you've stood up and spoke for those others would see imprisoned or Kissed. You no doubt still have enemies."

Harry sighed, "What are those spells?"

Draco held out his hand, "Do you trust me to show you?"

Harry gave him a small smile as he handed over his usual wand, the one he'd repaired with the Elder wand. "Don't do anything foolish."

Draco snorted, taking the wand. He slowly enunciated the spells and slowed down the wandwork, before handing over the wand ignoring his ache for his own wand. "There you try. Yes, they're all clean of dangerous spells but the two items left in the box have been heavily cast with protective magic.

Harry carefully copied Draco's incantations and wandwork before replacing his wand back in its holster. He removed the next gift; it was a black velvet gift box inside lying on a bed of scarlet silk was a golden and ruby bracelet bearing a griffin.

Draco ripped the box from the other's hand with a wandless, nonverbal summoning charm, "That bloody bastard, it's a Gregorio Marconi? This is at least 300 hundred galleons."

Harry snatched it back, gaping, "300 hundred galleons?' he tried to fathom what that might be in pounds. Why would Zabini spend that much on him?

"The stuffed winged horse was clearly 25 galleons and the book about 86 sickles." He whistled feeling some jealousy; Blaise was clearly serious…

Harry set the velvet box down before reaching into the box to find the last gift. He removed another velvet box that was a small rectangle about 7 cm by 5 cm.

Inside on emerald silk was a golden lion pendant the lion was reared. It also bore in gold script the name Gregorio Marconi Designs stitched on the silk as did the silk where the bracelet rest in it's own velvet box.

"That's not velvet Harry," Draco mused, "That's black sueded jarvy skin. Father gave mother Marconi designs as gifts not that I believe he actually cared for her but he thought that as Lady Malfoy she should have expensive items to showcase.

Harry gulped, "Tell me what Courting entails."

Draco folded his hands in his lap, "You rarely see courting nowadays, you see with most Bondings arranged by the parents and legally written up as Betrothal contracts that courting is a lost art. If you are seriously interested in a witch or a wizard you send them gifts you believe they will appreciate or accept. In your case, you have a godson. Anyone who knows you would know how much you desire family. They would have to accept that your godson would be a part of your Bonded life and would inherit at least from you. The wizard courting would state their intentions and why you should consider them, you mentioned Blaise told you roughly his expected inheritance." Draco clenched his hands in his lap.

Harry was sure that his feelings and desire for Draco was all for naught, should he allow Blaise to court him?

Draco sighed, "The box isn't empty Harry."

Harry reached in, in his hand was a book of Siren Sonnets, resting on it was a small square of parchment.

'Harry,

This is a portkey set to activate five past four English time on October fifth. It will take you if you wish to my villa in Greece that my mother willed to me on my seventeenth birthday. The villa lies on the unplottable isle of Gea Kameni, in Thēra more commonly known as Santorini but has also borne the names of Strongýlē or Kallístē. In case you are interested, Kallístē was the home of the lost empire of Atlantis, which was once home to a thriving Wizard empire that once foolishly sought to conquer Muggles. It is a very awe-inspiring place, what remains of course. Which has been preserved to warn over-zealous wizards who wish such power.

I invite you and Teddy to join me there as well as any chaperone you wish to invite. If you owl me your acceptance I can have my house elves Nicos and Rini bring over your things prior to your portkey.

Your servant,

Blaise Zabini'

Harry was floored, "He is inviting Teddy and I to GREECE?"

Draco caught the book before it hit the table and landed on one of Blaise's gifts. He read the note, his eyes narrowed. If he even wanted to pursue Harry for himself, how could he rival gifts like these? Harry had control of his entire inheritance including his money…

Harry replaced his gifts in the box they were delivered in, "I'll have to think about this…' he mumbled as he left his breakfast unfinished. it was already the first October...

Draco stared after him, all this time he'd had a chance to choose to pursue Harry and he might lose him to Blaise of all people. Blaise was wooing Harry from Italy! Draco couldn't even consider that and he lived with him? What did he have to offer Harry?

I know I know I shouldn't start a new fic but I couldn't help it. This is a different sort of fic then I usually write and I'm not sure how it will be received.

What do you think? Outstanding? Exceeds Expectations? Acceptable? Poor? Troll?
