Summery :: Harry is in a relationship with a man much larger than he is. They've been married for awhile and Harry has been taking the abuse to keep the man from turning on their kids. Harry's oldest son has seen what's been going on for years and was too scared to do anything. But now he is a teenager and has inherited his father's size. He gets into the middle and protects Harry during a beating, and together they leave with his younger siblings. Harry moves on and finds love with Draco.

Warning :: abuse (of course you just read that in the summery. Give me a here's your sign award! I love Bill Engvall! =)

This story will contain Mpreg. Just a heads up. But again, if it wasn't obvious then… well… need I say more? As a heads up when Harry got married he was 16 and Blaise had just turned 17. During this first chapter I will have many flashbacks and memories from certain parties involved. When the rest of this takes place they will have graduated from Hogwarts and be on their own in the world; around the ages of 20 or so.

Disclaimer :: I own nothing of the Harry Potter world! But I do own my characters! Namely Harry's children and anyone else who does not belong in the Harry Potter series!

More importantly if you do not like this then do not read. Its simple really. I hope you all enjoy this request and if you choose to read this thank you! And don't forget to review or at least keep in time with this! Thanks all!

Learning to Trust

Chapter 1

It was a semi peaceful night for one Harry Potter-Zabini. Yes, you've heard correctly; Harry Potter married Blaise Zabini. The wedding was a beautiful one! Harry in silver wedding robes and Blaise himself in the customary black robes of the groom. Harry and Blaise had dated since the beginning of their fourth year, and had married early and just at the ending of their sixth year. Of course everyone chastised them that they were too early. In fact many thought it was a bad idea. Ron and Hermione tried multiple times to try and break the two up when they were dating. They had noticed that Harry often times came back to their common room with bruises on his upper arms and body. But when questioned he would deny any and all claims that Blaise was a bad guy. Apparently what they say 'love is blind' is true. Soon after the two married, Blaise turned more abusive then he had in the past. Going as far as to beat him within an inch of his life, at the same time as accusing Harry of cheating on him when he got pregnant with the couples first child. A son. The beating almost resulted in a miscarriage…

Harry was brought out of his musings by the slam of a door.

'oh I hope he doesn't wake the kids.' Harry thought. The couple had four little boys. Dominic being the oldest, followed by the twins Caleb and Jacob, and the youngest being little Jackson. Blaise had gotten Harry pregnant a few months into their marriage, and he was born on August 24 and was now going on his sixth birthday.

Just then Blaise walked in or more like stumbled in. He was drunk again. Partying most of the night after work.

"Heey honeeyyy I'm home!" he slurred and crashed onto the couch. Walking towards his husbands feet Harry pulled off his shoes then pulled a afghan over the almost passed out man.

"Yes I see this." Harry said in disdain, "you just close your eyes and when you wake up in the morning I'll have a hangover potion on the table for you." leaning down he kissed him on the forehead. "I love you." he whispered. A snore was his response of love.

'Thank you Gods! He was too drunk tonight to do anything damaging.' He had gotten a rest tonight. After last nights beating he was still sore. What made last night, and all the other nights, horrible was that his oldest always manages to witness what happens to his mama. But Harry vowed that he would always take Blaise's anger if it would keep his sons safe and out of harms way. A creak from the floor boards alerted him to one of his children approach.

"Mama?" Dominic quietly called.

"yea baby?" seeing his son cower in the far corner of the room he walked to him and crouched down to eye level. "Sweetheart there is nothing to be afraid of. I will never let daddy hurt you in any way shape or form. Mama will always be here for you." He was always called 'Mama' by his children, enforced by Blaise. Not that he minded. He was the one who carried them those nine months.

"But Mama… he does hurt me. And the other three too!" his oldest cried out. Harry's face became a steal cold mask.

"What do you mean?"

"He hurts you! I keep the younger ones away so they don't see… but Mama why do you let him?"

Letting out the breath he didn't know he was holding he picked up his son and carried him back upstairs. "Honey. I will always let your daddy do that to me if it keeps you and your brothers safe from him. I would give my life up for your four without the slightest hesitation. You and your brothers are my world!" walking into Dominic's bedroom he settled his son into bed and pulled the covers up to his chin. "Now. You go to sleep and Mama will wake you up in the morning for breakfast. I love you." giving him a kiss on the forehead he started to walk out before a little voice stopped him.

"If he can hurt you Mama, then he is no daddy of mine. I will make him stop hitting you Mama… maybe not now seeing how I am so small compared to him, but I will stop him one day. Just watch and see." tears started falling from Harry's eyes but he didn't let his oldest see. "Goodnight Mama." he whispered.

"Goodnight sweetie." Harry closed the door only leaving it opened up a crack to check on him later without waking him up. Walking back into the living room Harry sat in the recliner and looked at his husband of six years.

:: Flashback ::

The air was getting warmer as Blaise walked the halls of Hogwarts in search of his boyfriend of two years. Putting his hand in his pocket he palmed the square box in anticipation. Today was the day he was going to officially make Harry his. Harry would have his name. And he would have Harry in name, body, and soul. Sure he loved him, what's not to love about Harry. He's the boy-who-lived for crying out loud! Hearing laughter he stopped in his tracks. Sitting by the lake was Harry… with Draco laughing. What. The. Hell. Putting those bad thoughts out of his head he walked up to the two.

"Harry… can I talk to you?"

"oh hey Blaise," he blushed a beautiful red. "Yea, sure. What about?" reaching down he grabbed Harry's arm pulling him to his feet.

"Come on. I just want to ask you something over here." Harry was confused but followed him nonetheless. Blaise stopped walking when they reached a tree a ways away from Draco.

"Harry…" he began. "You know I love you right?"

"Yes… Blaise is something wrong? You're kind of scaring me here." Harry chuckled humorlessly.

"No… nothings wrong. More like everything is right. Harry I love you. With everything that is me. I've loved you since day one. And I will continue to love you for the rest of my life… will you… would you…" dropping down to one knee he reached into his pocket and opened the box for Harry to see. "Will you do me the honors of becoming my husband Harry James Potter?" looking up into Harry's eyes he could see tears starting to form.

"Yes." Harry whispered. Standing up Blaise slid the ring on Harry's finger before kissing him and swinging him around. Smiling a shit eating grin he picked up Harry bridal style before walking to the headmasters office.

"Bubblegum." Blaise said off-handily to the gargoyles.

"Hello my boys. Is everything alright?" the headmaster asked in confusion upon seeing Harry being carried by Blaise.

"Yes headmaster. Everything is fine. Wonderful even! I've asked Harry to marry me and he said yes." Dumbledore had that annoying twinkle in his eyes as he looked at the engaged couple.

"Well congratulations! When is the wedding?"

Looking at Harry Blaise replied. "As soon as possible." a shy smile was his answer from Harry.

:: end flashback ::

The day he proposed had been a happy time in Harry's life. Those happy times are few and far in between. Unless those happy things are his children, then he is always happy. Sighing deeply Harry wondered where everything went wrong. Blaise use to be so full of love. So tender, sweet, happy… now, now all he is, is full of anger. And some weird need for revenge against Harry. What he's done he has no idea. Getting up he decided he was heading off to bed. After one last check on all four kids he headed off to bed.

Okay this is short but I want to see what everyone thinks of it. I will update this soon if my readers like this =] I think I did a pretty good job at this story so far but who knows! Well I hoped ya'll enjoyed this first chapter!
