Warnings: Contains slash and Mpreg and Harry's a little OOC for the first couple of chapters ok?
The Power Of Love
Divorce.
How could they do this? How did they come to this? They'd been so in love when they married two years ago, they'd survived the war to be with each other. Draco had found out he was pregnant a month after their marriage and the two had been so happy, even more so when their un-identical twin boys were born eight months later. They'd been conceived on the couples honeymoon, a time of pure happiness. The pair weren't really worried about caring for babies, they'd taken Teddy in after the war and were raising him like he was their own, Harry was his Godfather after all and he wouldn't let Remus's little boy be raised by strangers.
It hadn't even been a problem when the Doctor's confirmed that one of their sons was blind, disabilities were common in male pregnancies and they had been prepared for something like that to happen. Two weeks later their other son was confirmed as a Haemophiliac, although he was a mystery to the Doctors as to how he inherited the disease. It usually came from the female in the relationship but there was no female. Once again the pair took this in their stride. Their problems had started when the boys were a few months old, Harry had started suggesting that Draco not return to his job at the end of his maternity leave and stay at home.
Draco had given in, understanding that the boys needed constant care and attention. He'd hoped that once the boys were older and could be looked after by a babysitter that he could return to work, he hated the idea of being a stay at home dad. They'd argued a lot but…all couples argued didn't they? But by the time the twins first birthday came around they argued three times daily and it got to the point where Draco couldn't stand it. They even argued when they were having sex which they didn't do any where near as frequently as they used to. It was when Draco put into motions his plans to become a care worker for disabled children that everything came to a violent and loud climax,
"I'm not a housewife Harry!"
"Well you should be, I'm bringing in enough money to support us and the boys, why should you feel the need to work. You should just care for the twins like..."
"Like Hermione does her child? You want me to be the woman in our relationship. Well I won't Harry. There are things I want to do with my life Harry that I won't give up just for you. I've always wanted to teach, you've known that and now with Kai being blind why shouldn't I teach something that will help him?"
"You should help them by staying at home! Why can't you just do that? I though we agreed about this when we agreed you would carry them!"
"I never agreed to giving up my own life and becoming a housewife, a trophy for you show off. The tamed Draco Malfoy, servant of Harry Potter, warming his bed and raising his disabled children!"
"And whose fault is that? The disabilities in male pregnancies usually come from the 'mothers' side! Haemophilia especially! It's your fault our sons are the way they are Draco!"
"Now you have gone too far! How dare you even think to blame that on me?!? How dare you?!? That's it Harry, I've had enough of you and your new found ways. I want my own life and I can't get that here. I want a divorce."
"W-What?"
"A divorce Harry, I don't want to be married to you any more. You're ruining my life, my ambitions and I will not stay here to be used and shouted at."
"Fine, but I keep the boys."
"No, they are my sons Harry as you have just pointed out repeatedly and I will be taking them, both of them with me when I leave. I will not leave them here with you after what you have said to me today, never in a million years. You are not the man I married Harry. The war did change you after all Harry, I just didn't notice until now and I don't like what you've become. Goodbye Harry, I'll be back for mine and the boys things."
And then he'd put the boys in their push chair leaving Teddy with his Godfather knowing that he couldn't claim for him, being of no blood relation and then he'd gone down to the solicitors in Diagon Alley and filed for a Divorce. He'd paid for it out of his savings, paying the full sum immediately. It should have been a nice and simple divorce, that's what the solicitor had thought. They both wanted rid of each other. But they couldn't settle on the business of their boys and the matter had had to go to court, the fate of their children being decided by strangers looking in on their lives. Hermione had cared for all three boys that day. After two hours the jury of witches and wizards had returned, their faces giving away nothing of their decision. Finally the foreman had spoken,
"The argument for the custody of Kai Alexis Malfoy-Potter and Jason Alexander Malfoy-Potter has been discussed and decided by we the jury. We find both parents eligible to raise the children and therefore the child Kai will go with Draco Lucius Malfoy and the child Jason will go with Harry James Potter."
Never had either parent considered that the court would decide to split the boys up. Draco had sat open mouthed in his seat, silent in his shock. Harry had been outraged, shouting, arguing against the decision. But it was made. That night Draco returned Jason to his father, giving him a kiss and telling the boy he'd see him soon. And then he and Kai disappeared from the wizarding world, never to be seen again.
