"Malfoy, Draco bloody Malfoy. God, I hate him. He's so bloody smug about all this!" Ron exclaimed. Hermoine just rolled her eyes, knowing Ron didn't really mean it. He'd cleared any problems he had with Harry and Draco some months ago, when Harry first told them he was asking Draco to the Yule ball. Draco was sitting across from them on the old Gryffindor table. Since their 5th year, when Harry defeated Voldemort in the battle at Glastonbury, the houses had diminished into points systems only. It was more of a recognition- and class- based thing now- with less arguments and hate between the 4 houses- Slytherin and Gryffindor especially.

Harry had come out, as had a number of the upper years, once they came back to school, including Draco and Ginny. Ginny was now dating a Ravenclaw called Luna, that most people only knew as Loony, due to her tendencies to yell "duck!!" at people when owls were approaching, just in case they were infested with Tilkias, a sort of head lice that were apparently very dangerous to those who couldn't apparate- something to do with your Syties, which, of course, no one knew anything about. Tilkias could only leave the owl when the creature was in flight, so Luna, of course, grabbed Ginny and hid under the table whenever the owls started arriving. Quite odd.

Harry and Draco had been dating since the Yule Ball, with… Many, many incidents, including a number of public arguments and a couple of fights resulting in separate trips to Madame Pomfrey. They could agree on very little- except the fact they did, of course, love each other. But Draco would never say that in public, of course. And even in private, he'd say it was only for the sex, which he wouldn't get for a few days, until Harry gave in. Draco would never say sorry, at least not until he was happily satiated.

They weren't having an argument now, however, and were in fact feeding each other pieces of bacon and toast. Professor Lupin-Black and Professor Black-Lupin were walking towards the four of them.

"Remember the last time you saw Buckbeak? You called him a bloody chicken and you made some… rather sweet noises, actually. You were so funny- Ouch! That hurt, Draco!" Harry looked disgruntled, rubbing his side. His demeanour instantly brightened when he saw his new guardians- once Voldemort was defeated, Remus and Harry were able to clear his name, with a hand from Peter, of course.

The winter after the final battle, they were married in the quite beautiful garden of Grimmuland Place. The house had been made spectacular by a team of house elves borrowed from Hogwarts over the summer. Kreacher was less than helpful in this activity, but didn't get in the way too much. Harry had his own room, with a large bed for the eventuality of Draco visiting. Ron and Hermoine had their own rooms, which they visited every holiday for at least a week. Remus was very happy taking Care Of Magical Creatures, with assistance from Hagrid, while Snape avoided the post of Defence Against the Dark Arts for yet another year.

Draco was scowling. He still didn't like talking to their teachers on his own time, even though these two were his boyfriends 'parents', and his probable future in-laws. They'd paid the Dursley's a visit, to collect Harry's old books and any of his belongings he'd left- putting the fear of God into them for daring to hurt His Harry. They wouldn't dare question Sirius' right of parentage to Harry, especially when shown the documents proving that Harry was his Godson, although they did offer some… tips, which didn't go unheeded, they were used- on the Dursleys. Locked in a cupboard and almost forgotten, but only for a couple of days, of course.

"Good morning Harry, Hermoine, Ron. Oh, and Draco. How are you this fine day? We are rather spectacular. We have some news. It's a bit… private, however, so if it would be possible for you to come to our quarters tonight, after dinner, that would be much appreciated. Oh, and Hermoine, your paper got 100. You got the highest mark in the history of the school, so 150 points to Gryffindor. Draco, you got 97 percent, so you get 50 points for Slytherin. See you later" Sirius smiled and turned. Remus shook his head and said

"Hello, you lot. I'm going to be off this weeks lesson, so would you mind reminding Hagrid that it's Unicorns, not Blast Ended Skrewts." Hermoine frowned and replied

"Wasn't the last full moon on Thursday?" Remus nodded and whispered

"It's to do with the news. We have an appointment. Sirius will be gone too, but it's only for the afternoon, so he'll be here for his two classes, but I won't. I might be back for the end of it though, depends how long the appointment takes." They nodded and Draco stood up.

"Come on Harry, we have to get my books before class. I left my Charms homework in the Slytherin common room." He commanded. Harry stood up as well and said goodbye to everyone.

&Quick little note from Kaii & I'll write more when I can, but I do have a habit o being quite slow when it comes to updating. I'm on my holidays right now, so it shouldn't be too hard to find some time to write. If anyone spots any mistakes, please tell me. My usual Beta is in the Lake District, possibly for quite a while, so I'm in need of one () & Thanks!!&
