Harry hadn't expected a lot of things. He had never expected he would become a wizard. He had never expected he would become a famous wizard, for that matter. He had never expected he would have to be the one to defeat Voldemort. He'd never expected any of this. He defiantly didn't expect Draco Malfoy to be at his door four years after the battle.

Harry was preparing dinner for Teddy, while Teddy played with his brand new toys from his birthday in the front room when the door bell rang.

"Can you get that for me Teddy?" Harry asked from the kitchen. He heard Teddy's footsteps on the wooded floor approaching the front door. Harry was preoccupied with making dinner and so he didn't know how long it had been since Teddy went to answer the door, but he'd known it had been a while.

Being his Godfather, many thoughts invaded his head. Bad thoughts. What if the person at the door kidnapped him? Harry quickly ran towards the front door to find that Teddy wasn't gone, Teddy was still there. He was talking to the person. The person who happened to be Malfoy.

What would Malfoy want at my house? Harry wondered. They hadn't seen each other for four years now. He was concerned that Draco was talking to Teddy, knowing how Teddy was a very curious boy, and Draco was probably the wrong one to answer any of those questions.

"Potter?" He heard Malfoy speak.

"Er. Malfoy? What are you doing here?" Harry responded nervously. Teddy had stopped talking and was engaged in the two talking to each other.

"I would actually like to talk to you about that," said Draco.

"Harry, who is this?" Teddy asked. Harry wasn't sure if he should answer him or talk to Draco. He felt like Teddy now. What was Malfoy doing at his house? Grimmauld Place wasn't exactly Draco's place to be, Harry thought. Seeing how curious he was he answered Draco first.

"Sure, come into the kitchen, I'm still making dinner. Teddy, why don't you play with your toys until I get back?" Teddy nodded ethusastically and returned to his play. Draco followed Harry into the kitchen.

"Right then. What do you want?" Harry asked once they were out of eavsdropp of Teddy.

"Oh, a hello to you too Potter." Draco said. He was still the same Draco.

"Just tell me what you're doing at my house," Harry said.

"Well," Draco took a seat at the long table. "Father is in Azkaban, Mother is ill. She's at St. Mungo's for a week so they can take care of her. As for me, she doesn't think it's safe for a Malfoy to be alone. After all of what happened we still have people wanting to hurt us. She wanted to keep me safe somewhere and said that you owed her for her saving your life during the battle." Draco paused. Harry remembered back to the battle and how after he laid in the grass pretending to be dead and Narcissia lied to Voldemort about him being dead. "So she thought it reasonable that you would take me.."

Harry did owe Narcissia. If it weren't for her, he would have died then and there. Having a Malfoy for a week in his house didn't sound so comforting, though. He could imagine hearing compaints from Draco about almost everything. Then again... it was only a week.

"Only for a week right?" Harry softly said. Draco's face lightened when he said that.

"Yes, yes. Only for a week is all." Draco nodded.

"Right then, I guess we'll pick out a room for you after dinner." Harry said turning back towards the oven.

"And what exactly is for dinner may I ask?" Asked Draco.

"Spaghetti." Harry replied. Draco groaned in protest.

Dinner wasn't exactly what Harry expected. He didn't know that Draco was fond of children. He had thought children were the things that would annoy Malfoy that most. Seeing that he'd been wrong about that, Harry hadn't really said a word during dinner. He instead watch Teddy ask many questions and watched Malfoy smile and laugh. Though it was true that Draco is more related to Teddy than Harry ever would be, he still was shocked. Draco was impressed with Teddy's hair and Teddy was impressed with Malfoy's hair which automatically meant they were best friends according to Teddy.

After washing the dinner plates and putting everything back away, Harry walked into the front room where Teddy was showing Malfoy all of his toys.

"This is my dinosaur, his name is Remus Raptor!" Harry leaned against the door frame as he watched Teddy show Malfoy his toys. "And this one is named Tonks Tyrannosaurus, she and Remus like each other," Teddy quieted his voice to a faint whisper. "I mean like like each other." He then giggled and then continued pulling out many other toys.

Harry remembered telling Teddy about his parents. It was hard to do, knowing Teddy knew Harry wasn't his father. He told him that Lupin was always brave, and, though scared of himself, was always there for everyone else. He told him that Tonks was always fun to be around and was the light in a dark room. Teddy was always interested about his mom because he had inherited so much from her. The hair, for instance, was from Tonks.

"Hey, Teddy to you mind if I borrow Malfoy for a minute?" Harry asked, entering the room.

"His name is Draco!" He fused.

"Okay, do you mind if I borrow Draco for a moment?" Harry asked again with Teddy's approval of words.

"Will he be back?" Teddy asked.

"Yes, and if not then you still have all week to play with him." And with that, Teddy's hair changed purple, and Harry knew that if it was purple it meant Teddy was very happy. Teddy agreed only if Draco said goodnight to him and didn't disappear during the night.

Draco stood and said goodbye to Teddy and trailed Harry up the stairs. There were many rooms in Grimmauld Place, it was big enough for two people. Harry went up to the level where his own bedroom was and where Teddy's room was. They were both across from each other and Harry thought by seeing Draco and Teddy bond it would be a good idea for them to be close to each other. Harry picked the room that was next to his own.

"This will be your room I suppose." Harry said turning on the light. The room was dim and empty, only a bed and one dresser stood in it. Harry remembered it being Regulus's room when he stayed here. The walls were tan and the floor was wooded.

"It could use a bit of décor..." Harry thought aloud. He heard a sound come from Malfoy that sounded like an agreement.

"Where's your house elf?" He asked.

"I don't have one. Hermione wouldn't allow me to have one."

"Must you do what Granger says all the time?" Malfoy protested.

"Only when I know if I don't she'll hex me. She was always pestering us about her house elf club at school and I know if I had an house elf she would just nag and nag…" He realized he was telling Malfoy much more than he wanted to hear. Malfoy reached into his pocket and pulled out what looked like a coin purse.

"Engorgio!" He said pointing his wand at the small thing. It grew into something similar to a carrier. Except much, much bigger. He started pulling things out and placing them in piles on the bed.

"Right then. I'll leave you be," Harry said, turning on his heel heading for the door.

"Potter?" He heard Malfoy say.

"Yes?" Harry asked.

"Malfoys don't usually say thank you. But thank you."

"You're welcome." Harry said. He closed the door on his way out but stood still in the hallway once he did. A Malfoy saying thank you? A Malfoy smiling? A Malfoy playing with a kid? A Malfoy enjoying playing with a kid? Harry couldn't wait to see what other surprises were in hold for this week.
